The introduction

Monday, following week..." Mark, do you happen to know who the new managing director is?" Asked a brunette lady dressed in a black sleeveless buttoned blazer gown worn over a white shirt, portraying her vase-like curves as she leaned over the long table which the marketing team was seated. With the crease in her almond shaped eyes, one could tell that she was curious to know who the new managing director was. And who better to ask than the assistant manager?Everyone else in the room anticipated the answer of the young looking middle-aged man reclining in his chair with his brown hair standing tall in a neat quiff style. His symmetric jawline was cordially outlined by his beard. It was exactly Mark Hawkins.Mark raised his gaze from his cell phone towards Kaitlyn, " I have no idea, Kate." He shrugged. Mark wasn't in the least worried about a change in who held the position of managing director. Odds are, he'd be named the new managing director. Who knows?Kaitlyn made a difficult fac

Conspiracies

Mark quivered as he paced about in his office after the introduction was over. He tried to understand just what was going on.He pondered just how Val had made it into Citadel's, that too becoming the managing director. The last time he checked, wasn't she a customer service assistant? Mark thought even himself, with all the experience he had, couldn't have gone from being a customer service assistant to a managing director within weeks. He knew there had to be a likely story behind it, and he sought to figure it out...Mark stopped on his pace and perched on the ergonomic desk of natural wooden preface. He tapped his index finger on his temple as he tried to recall a clue from his past interaction with Val. He knew she majored Corporate communications in college. Without doubt, it wasn't even about qualifications. ' What then..?'He rummaged in his memory of years spent together with Val, only to end up clueless. That only meant one thing...' Something must have happened after we

Retaliation

Val was still getting acquainted with her new office when she heard a knock on the door to her office. She turned her gaze from the files she was looking into, towards the door and awaited to see who it was as the door knob turned. Her expression grew blank when Mark walked in her office and Val visibly scoffed. Mark saw this but just stood by the door after closing it behind him. He stared at the tip of his shoes for a long while, unsure of what to do or say. He wouldn’t say he had ever dreamed to be in this situation in any of his worst nightmares. There was nothing he could say nor do to right his wrongs. He only had the decency to not look Val in the face.Yes, He’d done really wrong to Val, and as such he should be happy that she’s at least doing well in life. However, if he was being realistic he hated whatever this was. “ Honey-“ “ Don’t even dare!” Val raised a finger to warn. “ Don’t even think about it” Val stated word for word in a trembling tone, obviously seething wit

Mark and Kaitlyn

" Haa!"Valerie erupted in exasperation after thirty minutes of trying to understand the charts and reports in the files scattered about her work desk. The thought of Mark and the conversation he had with him was completely erased from her mind, though the bittersweet feeling still remained...Of course, She used to love mark. And though it wasn't like she loved him anymore, the feeling of commitment she had for him still remained, and it was hard to get it out of her heart. Nevertheless, it's only a phase.Val's head swirled as harmful whispers of words she was familiar with, but had different meanings within business context, echoed in her mind.'Sales per capita... Growth marketing... churn rate...'She thought the last one might be exactly what she'd use to describe the speed at which her head spun and how nauseous she was at the moment. Val was quite acquainted with sales per capita as a business term to an extent, but churn rate? flywheel? she could only denote them in literal s

The letter

Val was quite comfortable with the path she currently ventured in her life right now. She had the best of apartments in a five star residential construct, the best job- being both her ex's and his lover's boss. She was currently living quite 'the' life. Bob had Valerie move from Mission district where she previously lived in a motel. She now stayed in a condo in Pacific heights, which was closer to Union street where Citadel's stood just ten minutes from her place.She looked at the beautiful blonde lady in the sophisticated vanity mirror before her and couldn't help but wink at herself. She was dressed in a black long sleeved gown with a chest slit that accentuated her sensual curves and reached below her knees. It was August and mid-summer, hence, she decided to keep it light and cool.Her long blonde hair was blown in a deep curl behind her, and a golden rimmed glasses perched on her nose bridge, giving her a professional appeal. Val tugged on the purple heart pendant necklace t

Concerns

Mark stormed into his office with a loud slam of the door." How was it?" Kaitlyn hurried to ask but seeing the look on Mark's face, she became silent. She had suggested that he write a letter to Val to at least save them faces in the company... and make a pact with Val. Kaitlyn knew that Mark had done really bad to Val. And she shared a responsible part of the blame as well. After all, Kaitlyn was Mark's side piece when he was still with Val. But since Val was moving on, she should be able to make peace with them right?Kaitlyn hadn't given a thought to whether she'd have taken Mark's apology if it were to be her on the other side of the story in place of Val.Mark clearly hasn't given a thought to it either!" Tsk! your idea was not the best in any way!" He retorted and pointed. " Now I don't know what that wench could do. I could literally get sacked!" Mark paced about." She seems in cohort with Ms Courtney and her husband, the owner..." He stated with his face flushed red from a

Surprise

Ding!Val had just ordered pepperoni not longer than 12 minutes when she heard the doorbell ring. She had just taken a bath and was applying her skin care. Her figure stood in a white bathrobe and towel wrapped about her head in the bathroom." That's fast..." She wasn't expecting the delivery until in another 15 to 20 minutes. Not that Val had a problem with how fast this was, not at all. She even thought that perhaps it was a new feature.' Fast delivery finally being put in practice...'Val put down the cosmetics, checked herself one last time in the vanity mirror before leaving the bathroom to get the door." That was quite fa-" However, Val froze on her speech when she saw who it was and just stared in a daze at his figure with her mouth agape." Hahaha! You must really not have been expecting me" Bob chuckled sweetly as he stood by the door in casual clothing. Contrary to his words, his sweet scent brought Val out of her daze as it struck a memory. Val would always recognize t

Trial

Weeks passed and it was September 1st...Bob sat in the Washington High court room with a small smile worn on his face, he was quite excited for what was to come.The court was just as special as it sounded, with an earnest air of struggle and strife. Only Attorneys and lawyers could stay unconcerned with this.Bob in his navy blue double breasted suit glanced over his shoulder towards Attorney Chris who sat right next to him. Seeing the reassuring nod the Attorney gave him, Bob returned it with that of utter confidence in him. Except for the clerk, the court reporter and the judge, there were no other people but Bob, Courtney, and their Attorneys. Confidentiality of this case was very important to avoid a scandal and the net's propaganda. Both Courtney and Bob were important personalities, and it was only safe that they did things this way.They wouldn't want their respective reputation in jeopardy and risk it for "world's view". After all, they had a life to get back to after all o

Trial II

" Your honor, I rest my case..." Attorney Johnson nodded in resolve shortly after giving his argument.The courtroom became heavily silent once again with the witness stand and the public seating desolate of spectators. It was the exact opposite of a wedding ceremony.Only the sounds of file pages being flipped and scribbles of pens could be heard. Just like the court reporter, Judge Lauren seemed to be taking notes.At this point, Bob's eyes had reddened and his expression bittered. Courtney's Attorney hadn't missed any detail, from arguments and occasional disagreements they had in the past to several other incidents over the past 3 years that he'd been with Courtney; he missed none of it. And he made it seem like some sort of abuse through fabrications.In his argument, The attorney had used these incidents to prove that Bob had never been at home to provide emotional support for Courtney and their child, and thus, Courtney had been the sole backbone of the family for a long time n

Is that all you've got?

Just as Bob got in the hotel room he was staying at, he had only taken off his suit and hung it, loosen his necktie a bit, and unbuttoned a few button on his shirt when he immediately sat down to work on different files that he laid out in front of him on the table as he reminisced on the trial with a glass of high-end whiskey in hand. The trial had only been adjourned due to the fact that he had challenged his paternity to Charlotte- Courtney's child. All thanks to Attorney Chris' exceptional show of expertise in his profession. Of course, Bob could have had the Attorney submit the DNA test he had in hand with him right there but he had decided not to do so as it would raise suspicion of how he had conducted such DNA test. He didn't want to get into any sort of trouble, the likes of being accused of forcefully taking blood from the child.Nonetheless, now that this has happened, Bob started processing his next move without rest. He'd seen just enough of Courtney's true intent. Bob h
