JULIAI was almost finished when Henry came to my desk to remind me of our dinner date. He said he was going to wait in front of the building.At precisely twelve minutes before seven, I was able to get everything done. I stretched my arms in the air, then I pressed the pressure points of my shoulder with my fingertips. I groaned as I actually felt the pain. I was sore everywhere, especially my lower back. I was exhausted and starving. I decided I needed to advise Adam I was leaving.I went to Adam’s office and was about to come in when I heard him laugh over the phone. Sometimes I don’t understand his mood. He was swearing at someone earlier, and now he was like watching a comedy high on sugar. To avoid seeing him play monster, I sent him a text saying I was leaving.When I came out of the building, Henry was already there as promised. He was leaning on his white convertible Audi, but he wasn’t alone; he was talking to a blonde woman. I decided not to approach him, but he had already

ADAM“I disagree.”Demi shook her head as she poured whiskey into my glass. “You can’t let his happen again, Adam. You are very aware of our history.” She sat on the barstool next to me at a cautious distance. “Back then, I felt so helpless. Imagine when you look at the clock and it’s been hours in just a blink of an eye. Sometimes I wake up finding myself in another location or talking to a person I didn’t know and without having an idea what I’ve been up to. But I am thankful you and Henry didn’t give up on me.”“It’s not your fault, Demi.” I gulped my whiskey. “You can’t help it.”“And for that, I won’t stop thanking you and Henry for the rest of my life.”“Don’t mention it. We didn’t even do anything.”In the past, when she spoke about her dissociative identity disorder, it’s almost painful to listen. I witnessed how she suffered, and I couldn’t do anything for her. But she was a fighter, and I admired her for that. And when she realized getting away from us would help her get bet

JULIAThe next morning, I delivered the designers' portfolio to my boss's desk, but he wasn’t in. Whenever he was not in the office, he was typically attending a meeting outside. And he didn't like his coffee cold, so I decided to drink it myself. I placed the daily report and the documents he needed on his desk neatly.An email appeared on my computer screen as soon as I came back to my desk. I clicked the message.To: ceo@cavendishenterprises.comCC: j.taylor@cavendishenterprises.comFrom: admin@gandcfoundation.comSubject: Invitation to the Grant and Chester Foundation Auction NightMessage:Dear Mr. Adam Cavendish,We are delighted to inform you that you are invited to the annual Grant and Chester Foundation Auction Event this Saturday, 7 P.M. at the Prime Hall, London, England.

JULIAI stared at him open-mouthed, unable to speak.“Yes?” Adam raised an eyebrow, waiting for my answer.How could he ask such a thing of me? It was his brother we were talking about, for goodness’ sake! His own brother whom he always cared about.“Why are you doing this to me? Are you saying you are willing to betray him? You know that I will say no.” Or maybe yes? God, what was wrong with me?“I am only trying to save you.”“Save me? And you don’t think what you want is dangerous?”Adam gritted his teeth. “I shouldn’t have introduced him to you. It was my fault. How far did your relationship go?”“We’re not in a relationship yet, but we kissed,” I admitted, and it felt weird sharing such private information. “I thought you would help me. I thought we would make him fall for me.”A groan escaped his throat. “Making him fall for you is already out of the picture because he’s not going to. He doesn’t do love.”“Like you do love? How could you know that? Do you always think that he is

JULIA“I am the most stupid person alive!” I tossed the pillows, then pulled the bedsheets in frustration. “You, Julia, should leave right now because you are going to get fired tomorrow anyway!” I stomped my feet on the pillow, pretending it was me.I was so pissed at myself. How could I kiss him like that? Not even once, but twice! How could I lose myself? What should I tell Henry now?I lay on the bed, then set my alarm for seven. Breakfast was at eight. I closed my eyes fitfully, unsure if I could really fall asleep.I woke up at exactly seven. I instantly stepped into the bathroom and took a warm shower. Afterward, I opened the wardrobe Adam talked about last night. I didn’t need my suitcase at all. My jaw dropped in amazement. It contained beautiful dresses—lots of them—and a case of shoes in a drawer. We were only staying for three days, but he was overly prepared for this trip. I suddenly felt like a princess.All of it looked pretty, but the yellow halter dress with floral la

JULIAGuests in suits and fancy dresses had already filled the posh interior of Prime Hall. Everything was glistening before my eyes, including flashes from the camera snaps. In each corner, people bragged about their wealth—which made the grand event absurd, since it was supposed to be a charity event. I suddenly felt overwhelmed. I clearly didn’t belong in his world.“We are half an hour late. Didn’t you realize that?” said Adam, offering his arm as we walked the red carpet. I held his arm, squeezing his bicep a little.“Then why didn’t you come here straight away? And I didn’t ask you to wait.”Damn, look at him. He’s so fine-looking himself. It wasn’t every day I saw Adam in a black tuxedo, and it suits him immaculately. He looked devilishly gorgeous.“I’m sorry.” I held my breath. He smelled so good I almost wanted to faint.He frowned. “Are you all right?”“Why?”“You’re sweating.”I cleared my throat. “It’s just... It doesn’t feel right,” I whispered. “This party, I mean.”“Why

ADAMDamn it! I loosened the necktie in suffocation. I pulled out a bottle of whiskey from the mini-bar and poured it into a glass. I couldn’t stop myself from shuddering—it’s as if my blood was going to pump out of my head any moment now. I gulped the glass of whiskey straight down my throat.“Adam, are you there?” Demi’s calm voice echoed in the room. “This is not what you want.” I heard her footsteps coming towards me.“Please not now, Demi.”“I can’t just ignore you. I know how hurt you were before when I dated you and Henry, and—”“I said, stop. This isn’t how it was before.” I poured another shot of whiskey into the glass.“Okay, I’m sorry. Are you heading to Florida?”“Yes, I can’t just suck it up for a whole night.”“Take care, Adam. I don’t want to say anything, but I can’t ignore this. I think Julia likes you.”“She doesn’t want me. She wants Henry and I can’t stop thinking about them, Demi. I admit it. Why does it have to be my brother again?” I drank the last drop of liquo

JULIAI was thirty minutes late to the office. Damn, I was still so sleepy. Adam probably would get mad if he were here. Fortunately, he’s still in Florida.I went into Adam’s office to organize his desk, but I couldn’t help but think about him. When was he coming back? I was worried that I couldn’t stop thinking about him.“Julia.”“Oh, my God!” I jerked. I spun around and found Adam at the door.He’s here…He scowled at my reaction and waltzed toward his desk, and sat. “What are you doing?”“I’m re-organizing.”“Okay. Prepare the boardroom.”“Yes, sir.” I left the room quietly.Hurriedly, I went to the boardroom and asked the person in charge to clean it before the meeting. I placed the folders in front of each seat and a bottle of water. Adam strode into the room a few minutes later. He was carrying a laptop.“Set this up, Julia,” Adam ordered, then he put the laptop on the conference table. As usual, the urge electrified something strange sleeping in my chest. It’s as if the room

JULIAWhat was he up to now? I shrugged and decided to just go there to see it. I walked into the elevator and pressed the button for the upper floor. I pushed the door open as soon as I reached the rooftop, and to my surprise, sprinkles of confetti burst on my face.“Happy Birthday!”I caught my mouth in astonishment. God! Every friend I had on the executive’s floor was here. And Henry was among them holding a bouquet of red roses.Mixed emotions filled my chest. I was happy but regret instantly pinched my heart. I didn’t deserve this. I didn’t deserve Henry.“Henry…”“I’m sorry, girl! This is all we can do,” Chloe said. They stepped aside and showed me a table groomed with pristine linen covers, romantic candle lights, and two padded chairs on its sides. There was a food trolley filled with our dinner for the night as well.“Of course, we wouldn’t forget your birthday,” Bob said.“This is too much, guys. I didn’t even remember my own birthday,” I sniveled, between chuckles.“Don’t c

JULIAAdam swiftly pushed away from Demi as soon as he saw me.“Julia…”I stepped back, but I was caught by Henry, who appeared behind me. “Whoa! What the heck is this all about?”Adam walked closer, ignoring his brother’s query, and tried to reach me. “Jules… it’s not what you think.”“Don’t come any closer!” I concealed myself behind Henry.His eyes and expression were filled with regret. “Julia…”Demi stepped on the ground gracefully and tried to fix her wrinkled skirt. Then, she put back and buttoned up her blouse.“Hello, Henry,” she greeted, but she didn’t sound like herself. What the hell was going on?“Take Julia out of here,” Adam instructed. “Please…”“Why would I take her away? What’s going on here, Adam? Demi?”“Please take her away. I can explain later.”I let out a laugh of sheer disbelief. “I can leave on my own, Mr. Cavendish. I was about to leave anyway. You two should just continue what you’re doing.”Demi flashed out a grin. “Who’s this girl with you, Henry?” she as
