Chapter 21: He finds her suspicious

Wesley fixed his custom-made silver wristwatch on his wrists as he stared at his reflection in the mirror. He had his jet-black hair combed backwards exposing his forehead and making him look extremely handsome and mature. That’s how normally has his hair styled. Clad in navy blue pant trousers with a white shirt and a tie, he looked just like the handsome CEO that he is. After putting on his wristwatch, he glanced at it to see it was almost 7:30 already. He has to get to work and he seems to be running out of time already but even still, he did not show any sign of anxiety. He is the CEO and chairman of Maxwell cooperation so what is there to be anxious about? Not like he goes late or does not take his work seriously, he is known to be both hardworking and intelligent. One who doesn’t take his work lightly. Taking one last look at his reflection, Wesley slightly brushed his hair with his palm before going over to the couch to pick up his suit jacket. Placing it over his left ar

Chapter 22: She sounded like Rose...

Faint voices coming from the living room strayed towards her hearing and Cindy could not help but smuggle against her pillow feeling reluctant to get up from bed. She was laying on her stomach with her hands stretched across the bed, her phone in hand. In the end, she opened her eyes lazily and yawned. Then she pulled her phone closer to see it was 8:30 am already. “Arrgghhh, how and when did I even sleep off?” she yawned lazily once more. She glanced at her phone and remembered she had slept off while reading the hateful comments and online articles about Daisy online. She scoffed as she sat up on the bed. “Even the story of your downfall is boring Daisy,” she said mockingly with a sly smile on. Robbing her eyes, she moved closer to the edge of the bed before dropping her feet on the cold tiles. The voices coming from the living room had drawn her attention and she wanted to see what was going on. Not like it sounded like an argument or ruckus. In fact, it no way sounded like

Chapter 23: Rose is suspicious

“Is she not your friend and Daisy’s?” the lady on the other end asked and Cindy nodded hastily like she would see her do that. “Yes, she is ma. But as it is, she’s closer to Daisy and would stop at nothing till Daisy is at least vindicated.”“Think about this ma’am,” Cindy continued. “If the truth probably comes out that Daisy was set up and Rose is able to get evidence that Daisy was actually a victim that night, it would be bad. Not only would she get sympathy from the netizens but Finn’s media would pay for damages and she’ll perhaps become popular and loved again. All our efforts will be in vain.”The other end went silent as Cindy waited for her to probably say her mind or dish out orders.After a long pause, her reply finally came from the other end. “I’ll see to it. Just lay low for now and keep an eye on Daisy. Besides, you don’t have to show your displeasure and hatred for her out there so people won’t get suspicious of you.“I don’t ma,” Cindy answered hastily. “I mean, she’

“Thank you very much doctor, I really appreciate your help,” Cindy thanked the doctor for the hundredth time as she walked him to the main entrance.The doctor nodded and turned to face her. “It’s okay miss. Just make sure you check her from time to time. It would be great if you can stay with her throughout. Call me if anything happens,” he instructed while Cindy gave a simple nod.Getting to the door, he stretched out his hand to open it when Cindy stopped him. “I don’t know your name, mister. ““Mind telling me?”He stopped, turned and came face with her smiley pretty face. After staring at her for a while, he answered with his eyes narrowed slightly, “sure. My name is Richard miss.”Cindy smiled and stretched her hand for a handshake. “I’m Cindy. Call me Cindy and not miss.”Richard chuckled slightly and took her hand, “alright. You have a sweet name, Cindy.” To which Cindy smiled sweetly.Staring at her face, she looked really pretty and innocent and a complicated feeling welled

Chapter 25: Sarah II

A black Benz raced down the road and behind the wheel was Andrew looking lost and abandoned. But at the same time, he sincerely hoped his assumptions were wrong and Sarah is still the innocent pretty girl he is in love with. It took him four minutes to drive to the café on the next road and once he got there, he drove in and parked his car properly before immediately getting down. After ensuring the doors were locked, Andrew walked into the café where he was ushered to a designated spot. As he approached the table, he spotted her. There she was, sitting and facing the table, her back to him. Her blonde hair is something he could never mistake for anything and even just staring at her from behind, he could already sense the familiarity. He could recognize her anytime, any day and even in the dark. He knew her like the back of his hand. That is the woman he is in love with; Sarah Matthew. Andrew paused and stood on the spot and just staring at her from the distance brought tears to

It wasn’t snowy but the mist around made it seem like it would snow soon. Then there was a sudden breeze that began to blow and Daisy had to run into the house.“Dad,” she called out as she rushed into the house. “Dad, it’s going to snow? You didn’t leave anything out there right?”She didn’t get any reply after calling unto her dad and her brows furrowed in surprise at that. ‘He was right in the suiting room before I left,’ she thought to herself as she fully stepped into the already dark house.The wind was blowing heavily now and the cloud had now turned dark.Daisy shut the entrance door before using her hand to trace the wall. But then, she was shocked at the surrounding she met with when the lights finally came on.

But then, she suddenly paused and froze on the spot. She wasn’t the one that put on that light
