All Chapters of VALENTINE'S DAY : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Valentine’s Day“Did I pass the application review?” I asked into the phone, a small smile appearing on my face, I was so confident and happy, ready to rejoice.“Ms. Valentina Chandler, we thank you for applying to our company, we genuinely appreciate your effort and interest, however, we regret to inform you that we are unable to proceed with your application.” I felt my heart sink, that wasn’t the information I was hoping to hear. “We appreciate your interest and cooperation, and we look forward to seeing you sometime in the future.”“W-W-Wait!” I yelled before Vena could disconnect my call “Wait… Why am I being refused? You assured me that I met all your requirements and I would be allowed to work.”“Um…Yes, I did say that, but please forgive me for the misinformation, however, you are right to the point but the main reason why we refused your application is that our company prefers candidates who are at least twenty-one years of age.”“Oh…” My shoulders slumped down in disappointm

Valentina’s P.O.V“G-Good Mo-Morning.” One of us needed to start the conversation, I guess, I was trembling from both the fear of Ethan and the pain in my head. “I-I am sorry for bumping into you, I didn’t see you, and please can you remove your feet from my phone?”“Good morning?” His voice rang out musically as he stood confidently like he was a god or something, he was similar to a portrait sculpted to perfection, his voice, his face, his hair, every single thing about him oozed with elegance and arrogance.Everything about him was perfect, except for his rotten attitude, he pressed harder on my phone and I heard another sharp snap, I gasped as I stared back at his feet in horror.“Please stop!” I cried out. “At this rate, you are going to break my phone.”“What do you mean? It was already broken.” He murmured stepping harder into it, I could still hear the breaking of the glass that was probably my phone screen. “Stepping so hard on it will make you break it even more,” I explain

Valentina’s P.O.V“Woah! This house is so freaking big.” I muttered to myself as I stared around the huge living room, it was like a house out of a movie scene, as soon as the closing bell rang, I quickly changed out of my clothes and I came here immediately.I hope I get the job.“Good day,” My head snapped in the direction of the voice and I got up immediately to greet the man dressed in a neatly tailored tuxedo standing in front of me. He simply nodded and the security men behind me left us alone.“You are Ms. Valentina, right?” “G-Good Afternoon,” I stuttered. “Y-Yes, I am Valentina.”“I’m glad you were able to make it, you are a bit ahead of time, it is quite impressive.” A small blush reached my face at his compliment. “Unfortunately, Mr. Israel is yet to come back from work, however, he requests you wait for him in his study.”He turned on his heels and began to walk away, he didn’t even care if I was coming with him or not, I hurried after him and followed him across the l

Valentina’s P.O.VWhat the hell does he mean by that? I thought to myself as I stared down at his hands in horror, Ethan was asking to shake me. Did he not recognize me?My eyes followed his hands and they stopped only when I was looking into his forest-green eyes, and being lost in them. No, he recognizes me, then why?“Ms. Chandler?” I gasped slightly when I heard Mr. Israel’s voice. “Is anything the problem?”I bit down on my lips as I shook my head almost immediately, I received Ethan’s hands, and as soon as I touched his hands, I felt shock waves travel from the point of contact to every single body part I had.“I’m fine, Mr. Israel,” I answered with a forced smile, I don’t know why but Ethan is choosing to cover for me, I should probably get the hell out of here, while I still can.“I am glad, since we are here shall we sit out and have coffee together, while you tell us a little more about yourself.” Mr. Israel said with a small grin on his face, and I felt my heart hammer in m

Valentina’s P.O.V I was unable to answer Ethan, not because I was trying to be defiant or anything, but because I was too afraid to speak. He leaned even closer to me a devious smirk playing on his lips as he stared down at me. “I added glue into the paint, I assure you it would be difficult to get out of time on your own, and you might lose your skin if you’re not careful enough.”I might lose my skin. I looked down at my pathetic state, even though Ethan was causing harm right now, there was a boyish grin on his very handsome face, and I couldn’t help but wonder why someone so beautiful would be capable of such evil. I desperately needed help at the moment but I couldn’t bring myself to accept his offer.“Suit yourself,” He grinned before leaving, the whole class cheered, and I bowed my head in shame, no one, not even one person would help me. I took off my bag and tried to get up, the slime gripped me firmly but I pushed myself from the floor using my open palm as a means of suppor
