Semua Bab Paradise in Hell: Bab 1 - Bab 10

The rain poured down heavily from the sky upon the earth and Kylie could see from where she sat,the drops cascading down the windowpane. She inhaled tirelessly as she rubbed her aching shoulder. She has been seated in her study for three hours sketching designs she hoped would be another massive hit this year since there was a new competitor on the block.She fidgeted with the pencil in her hand and sighed again as a deep frown creased her perfectly carved brows. She stared at the sheets in front of her wondering if she was really the one who sketched out the 'ugly' designs as she calls them.She tossed the sheets into the waste basket as another sigh escaped her lips. She definitely needed one of those long vacation to get off the stress and leave her employees alone to run the designs, but her stubbornness would not have her do so. She didn't want to take any risks that will jeopardize her company and tarnish the image forever. She re

Leonard stared at the lady in front of him. She was Aphrodite reborn. She had a milk honey like skin befitting a brunette which was inviting to soft sweet caresses. Her full small lush lips begged to be kissed and he wondered how it will feel under the pressure of his.Her tailored suit couldn't disguise the curves that was beneath. Kylie gazed at him. She was probably gawking without her realization. He had piercing silver eyes that seemed to penetrate deep into her very soul. And those chiseled jaw and slightly broad shoulders. Where has she seen this face before?Leo cleared his throat realizing that she was having a grip on him than he least expected."I presume that you were taught not to leave a visitor standing by the door." he said rudely snapping her out of her thoughts.How rude!she thought to herself and disliked him immediately."You presumed wrong mister. I was rather taught to leave visitors standing by the d

  Kylie parked the car in front of her parents house. She turned off the ignition of the car and stepped out.She couldn't quite place her fingers on why she obliged to her mother's request again. It wasn't even a request,it was an order and Kylie knew better than to refute her mother's order.Something in her heart told her she wasn't here because she didn't want to displease her mother. Why she actually came,she couldn't pinpoint.She walked into the house,her car keys dangling on her fingers.She met Carina seated on the long arm couch,a fine cream product of LoveSac. She was sipping tea when she saw Kylie walked in."Kylie."Carina said gently."Mother."Kylie said less spiteful. "You wanted me here." she said still standing. She dropped the cup on the saucer and placed it on the grey ceramic glass table."It's good to see you still have respect for your mother. Do sit down Kylie,you're not a stranger here,this is your home." she s

Kylie arrived at the café and saw Rex seated at the last end of the table. On the table was a half eaten French tuna salad and a cup of cappuccino. It seemed like he had ordered before she came. She braced herself and walked up to him with a smile on her face. He stood up when he saw her walking towards him. He smiled when she came closer and he placed a light kiss close to her lips."I've missed you." he said as she took her seat on the opposite side."I have too. I've just been caught up with work." she said.He managed a little smile. "It's you Kylie. You're a workaholic." he said. She could tell he was annoyed by that fact. It wasn't her fault. She had to be up on her toes since the Broadway was fast approaching. She placed her hand on his."I'm sorry. You know I'll never neglect you on purpose." she said feeling guilty for not spending more time with him. Just then,the waiter walked up to her to take her order. "A cup of

Kylie looked over each fabric of designs in front of her. She had pushed them into bringing out the extreme best they had in them.Their designs were indeed very good than the last time. She felt each sequin of the dresses and smiled. The embroideries too were perfect. "I'm very much pleased with what I'm seeing and I must confess it's a job well done." she said and they beamed with smiles."Thank you very much ma'am." they said in one accord. Kylie nodded. All she needed was a significant look that stood out just like the combined design with Anna's pattern. She needed a brainstorming idea just like that but she was too distracted to think. She turned to leave but stopped. "Lest I forget,Every sketch design that you feel is not worth making,should be torn into pieces,bits by bits before throwing it into the wastebasket. Am i clear on that?" "Yes ma'am." They chorused and she walked back into her office.She rubbed her aching neck. These past
