The most important night of Sky Corporation had come. All bosses, employees and VIP guests were all excited to attend. It was the talk of the city as famous celebrities abroad and most influential people in different industries were gathered together in the party.
Today, Arabella was caught in the middle of sadness and happiness. Just this morning, she already sent her resignation letter to the HR Manager and she also put one copy on Bill’s table. After tonight, she would quietly disappear and she would never come back again.
Putting on her makeup, she smiled as she was avoiding herself not to cry. Though all the makeups she used were waterproof, she still didn’t want to be sad at this time. She knew that the sadness in her heart tonight won’t matter anymore after a year or two. So, she didn’t need to cry. She wouldn’t definitely regret her decision.
After glamming up, she looked at her reflection in the mirror. This was her f
The bright blue sky was suddenly filled with dark clouds, then it started to rain heavily.This day marked the darkest day of Sky Corporation and the saddest day of Capital Z.The announcement shocked the country and overseas.Everyone mourned the losing of Ed Sky. People remembered him as a noble man who helped the poor through his charity works and an outstanding leader who always motivated his people.The unexpected turned of events made Arabella changed her departure. She wanted to visit the wake of Ed to pay her last respect, but she knew his family blamed her for everything.After that night at the hospital, she never saw Bill and she never had the chance to defend herself to him. Kelly was surely had cursed her as she never gave her an ear to explain everything let alone Kelly had already believed what she saw.The day had come for Ed’s burial. To avoid any havoc, Arabella hid behind a tree just to attend the ceremony. Eve
One sunny day, the traffic was so bad. It seemed everybody was in a rush. Farrah was in a hurry to meet her client in Hotel Zeus, but she couldn’t get through. There seemed to have an accident that caused the heavy traffic.Then her phone rang.“Yes! Please speak up.” Farrah answered quickly through her Bluetooth.“Ma’am, I just wanted to report that the patient had another attack today. Good thing she was okay now. Your brother arrived on time and she was given a shot to calm her down. She’s already stable now.” The woman on the other line reported.“Good! That’s a good news. Any developments?” Farrah asked the caller with a worried tone.“Dr. Fin said, the patient was not willing to cooperate. She wanted to stay in her sorrow and didn’t want to get out of there. If this would continue, she might lose herself forever.” The caller explained with brief, sad tone.&l
“Mommy! Mommy! Wake up!” A cute chubby boy was climbing into Arabella’s bed. She smiled and pinched his rosy, chubby cheeks.It seemed her dream brought her again to the most tragic part of her life. It happened 6 years ago, but she felt that it happened just yesterday. The time was so cruel to her that even she tried her best not to remember that tragic part in her life, it always came out in her dream every night. Remembering how Bill stood up there without doing anything to save her and his son made her want to vomit in anger.With that, every morning, it was already habitual to her to pinch her son’s chubby cheeks to confirm that she was not dreaming.Her son was alive!She smiled genuinely and kissed Adam repetitively on the cheeks. Seeing her handsome chubby boy every morning made her feel so lucky despite of the tragic past, she suffered at the hand of Bill Sky.That name for her was a curse.She never wa
With the word ‘fatherless’ Arabella was stunned, but she managed to stand up with elegance and with a confident poise.“I didn’t know that bullying in this school is allowed and the person who was bullied would get the punishment. Pls. correct me if I am mistaken Mrs. Principal.” Arabella looked at the old woman who was sitting uneasily. The principle was obviously embarrassed by Ms. Thompson’s confession.Based on how Arabella talked and her arrogant demeanor, the principal was thinking that she was really a professional lawyer. From that moment, she knew that she could not mess up with Arabella or else her position as a principal was at stake.“Ms. Thompson, how dare you to tell lies to me? Please submit your resignation letter right away.” The principal demanded, showing her disappointment look and her full authority to punish her employee in front of Arabella.Ms. Thompson cried with regrets in her
Arabella froze. Her cold sweat came out and her face turned suddenly pale.Adam never did ask her about his father before and she was very thankful for it. She didn’t think this time would come and she was not prepared for it.How could she tell him that his father was the cruelest man in the world?The most despicable.A heartless man.6 years ago, she almost lost her son again.Lying on the ground bleeding and begging for mercy. She looked at Bill but he only had disgusted eyes for her. At her helplessness and most painful moment in her life, Bill let her witnessed him kissing Trishia passionately.Remembering her dark experience, Arabella’s tears instantly came out uncontrollably like a river flowing without no trace of stopping.“Your father… your father is…” She couldn’t continue as the rest of her words were stuck in her throat. All she wanted to say was his father was dea
She trembled in fright to see a man from her dark past. She shook her head to get rid of the horrifying man in her sight, then she closed her eyes tightly and opened them again pointing to the seat of the man.‘Thank God!’ She muttered with cold sweat.The seat was empty.She seemed to imagine things again, but the creepy smile of the man in her was so real. It made her scared and wanted to go out from the stage. Arabella wanted them to go home immediately.After she finished the show, she gave the bouquet to Lira and called Damien to pick her up at the entrance. Maybe because she had thought too much about the sender of the flowers, ‘W’, that made her a sudden thought of a lunatic person from her past.William Zimmer.Could it be W stands for William?‘No way. It’s impossible! It’s just a coincidence.’ She wracked her brain as she couldn’t get away from the thought of his devilish
Trishia felt her face was bursting with mortification. She was liked punched with a metal fist by Bill’s words.3 years ago, her father, Senator Meyer ran for President but he didn’t win. He lost a lot of money during his campaign so, his last resort was for his daughter to be married to the richest man in the city, Bill Sky. In his desperation, he took advantage of the mourning of Bill’s mom, Kelly.“Senator Meyer, what brings you here?” Kelly welcomed him with a bright expression.“Well. I am still at a loss of losing a good friend, Ed.” Senator Meyer’s expression looked gloomy in front of Kelly but when she’s not looking, his expression changed to a cunning fox.“Yes. My husband was indeed a good friend.” Sipping her tea, Kelly smiled as she remembered the loving memory of her husband.“Well…You know I am a good friend of your husband so if ever my
“I… I’m..” Trishia staggered. She knew what he had meant.“If you want to continue with that title, please behave yourself.” Bill sounded calm but his words somewhat carried awful threats.“Bill, you know that I love you. Why can’t you give me a chance?” Though intense fear running crazily over her, she still dared to ask.“I want to have a baby with you.”“I want to be your wife.” Trishia refused to stop today. She was enduring everything for a long time and yet she was nothing to him.“I don’t do romance.” Bill turned around and walked towards the glass wall. He looked outside with unfathomable eyes.“Then why could you treat me like you treated Ara…. that woman before?” She couldn’t afford to say Arabella’s name again.“I saw you kissing her and your desire for her. You lived with her and slept
