I’m lounging here in my apartment since I don’t have many things to do at work.Besides, it’s the weekend anyway. Aside from current news trends and boring romance drama, nothing is really interesting, so it's best to turn it off.Suddenly, the doorbell rang in my apartment. ‘I’m not expecting anyone today? Is it my parents? No way!’I felt at ease to see that it was Alexander who was waiting outside, not my parents. I’ve been hiding from them for almost a year already.

I tiredly opened my eyes and looked at the clock on the bedside table.The sun's rays slipping through the slightly opened curtains tell me that it’s already morning. Walking out of bed, I slowly walked towards the door and opened it.“Good morning, I have cooked breakfast already. Wash up, then come down.” Catherine said when the door opened.I nodded my head in a daze and walked back inside to wash up. Opening the closet, I picked up some of my comfortable clothes since it’s the weekend and I have no work today.In less than an hour, I managed to finish my morning routine and hurriedly went downstairs.

(Catherine POV) Monique and I are currently in a salon getting our makeover. Later this evening, we are attending Angel’s Collection Annual Anniversary. Monique was their brand ambassador, so it was a must for her to attend. It just so happened that she needed a chaperone, so she called me over. I don’t even have any idea how she managed to convince me to attend this event. The fact that I don’t really like attending any social gatherings makes me wonder why I am attending this. Flashback… It’s already late in the evening. I’m currently working on the course materials for my class. We are having a field study next week and this must be submitted to the dean before it gets approved. So, finishing it tonight would be the best thing. Monique is still at work.

Chapter 16: Contract

(Monique’s POV)Ring! Ring!I woke up from my deep slumber because of the irritating sound from my phone. “Hello?!”“Monique! Thank God you finally answered the phone. I’ve been calling you a couple of times already!” So, it’s my manager.“What do you want? You just disturbed my sleep, didn’t you know that?”“What?! You’re still sleeping? It’s already past 9 in the morning! Hurry up and come to the office this instant!” She instantly hung up the phone before I could say my reply.‘What the hell is wrong with that psychopath old lady!’ That was my manager, Michelle Chua. She was given to me by the agency when I first started working there, so we’ve known each other for so many years already.We were not really on good terms.

Chapter 17: Dilemma

(Catherine’s POV) I saw the lights turned on in our apartment when I arrived. ‘Monique didn’t go to the agency today? It’s quite early’ As soon as I opened the door, I heard laughter echoing in the living room. I slowly closed the door and headed to where she was. There, I saw her watching a comedy film with a bowl of popcorn in her hands. “You didn’t go to work today?” She looked at me and smiled. “Nope, I resigned.” My brows furrowed when I heard her. I instantly sat near her and asked, “What do you mean you resigned? You left the agency?” She turned off the TV and put down her popcorn. “*Sigh* Yeah, I asked my manager to sign a termination contract earlier this morning. I think it’s already signed by now.” “Why? Your contract isn’t over yet and there are liquidated damages to pay. Why did you leave the agency anyway? Are you changing careers?” “It’s not that I’m changing careers. You know how much I love modeling, b

Class dismissed.” I left the room and walked towards the teacher’s office.There are still some things to prepare for our fieldwork tomorrow. On the way to the office, my phone rang and saw that it was the principal who had called. “Hello, Mr. Principal?”“Yes, Catherine. Is your class done already?”“Yes sir. I’m currently walking back to the office. Is there something you want me to do sir?”“That’s good. Can you come to the office right now? There’s something I want to discuss with you.”“Okay, sir.” The call ended right after. ‘Why did the Principal call me?

Chapter 19: Field Work

(Catherine’s POV) “Okay everyone, let’s have our lunch break since it’s near lunch already. Remember to be back here before 1:30 in the afternoon, okay? You may go now.” Half a day has already passed since the time I saw President Lu in the parking area of the university. I don’t know how I managed to get on the bus after what President Lu had said. Fortunately, he didn’t approach me again when we reached the venue. He was just at the corner observing the class. I breathed a sigh of relief because of that. I don’t think I could continue this activity if he approached me again. When all of my students were already having their lunch, I glanced around to see if President Lu was there but he was nowhere to be found. It would be great if he had already gone back to his office. I can now focus on my job without feeling anxious. Feeling elated, I headed to the restaurant near our location to get something to eat. I’m not really picky when it

Chapter 20: Dinner

(Alexander’s POV) After our encounter in the parking lot, she finally agreed to have dinner with me. We left her car there and used my car instead. Fortunately, after that earlier episode, she finally managed to calm herself down. Silence is all that is heard on our way to the restaurant. I had already asked Secretary Lin to reserve a private room in the restaurant. When we arrived there, a few people were dining since it was already late in the evening. “Good evening President Lu. It’s a pleasure for us to have you here in our restaurant. Please follow me. I’ll lead you to your table.” The manager guided us to the second floor of the restaurant. This is where all the private rooms are located. I glanced at Catherine, who was silently following from behind. I stopped walking, which made the manager confused. “Is there something wrong President Lu?” Ignoring him, I turned around, which surprised Catherine. Her widened eyes tell how afra
