Chapter 81: The Notice Board.

Giselle's POV.Finally, the weekend was over. I woke up early, and started preparing for work. I was so happy to resume back to work, and the reason was unknown to me. I danced under the shower, and after some time, I slipped into my white bathrobe,with a white towel on my head which I used in drying my hair. I went to my closet, and picked a dirty red suit with a black blouse. I wore my underwear and combed my hair. I slipped into my suit pants, and put my blouse on. I tucked in my blouse, and put on my coat. I packed my lecturing materials, and picked a purse. I took my overcoat and went downstairs.“Good morning,” I said cheerfully when I saw Susan and another maid. “Good morning madam,” they chorused. “Hope you slept well,” I said. “We did, you look energetic this morning,” Susan said, and I smiled. “What did you expect? It is a working day,” I said, and she looked at me teasingly.“You look amazing,” she said. “Thank you,” I replied. “Your breakfast is served, ma'am,” she said,

Chapter 82 : I Dare You To Say That Again!

Bryan's POV.I left Giselle's office unsettled, and headed to my lecture hall, but I started to wonder who could have passed such insults about Giselle on the board. I started thinking about Giselle's encounter with students, but I couldn't think of anybody else than Ivy. I didn't want to jump in, so I went back to the hallway where it was pasted, and looked around the place. I saw a CCTV camera near the hallway and I sighed heavily.I wanted to investigate the situation, but I knew if I went to the school control they would think I was making a big deal out of it, and it might make the rumor worse. I brought my phone out of my pocket, and snapped the CCTV location. I dialed Mark's number, and he picked the call after the third call. “Hello boss,” he said tiredly from the other end, and I smiled lightly. I knew what he was trying to do. I have given him a hard time with the psychopath case, and he deserves some rest, but I still called him.“Good morning,” I said slowly. “What should

Chapter 83 : Go For Your Love.

Bryan's POV.All the students kept quiet and watched me silently. “Man, calm down,’’ Seb whispered to me, but I wasn't having it. “If any of you say any bad word against that lecturer again, I won't take it lightly with the person,” I said with a cold gaze. “What did I say wrong? I was talking based on what was pasted on the school notice board, it is not like I hate her,” she said hurriedly. “Have you confirmed the rumor?” I asked, and she shook her head. “Answer me when I ask you a question! Did you confirm the rumors to be true?!” I fired.“No,’’ she said slowly. “So, why are you so sure that she really did those things?” I asked. “Since it was from an anonymous source it will be true, and I think we should not have such a person with that character as a lecturer in this school,” she said, and I clenched my fist trying to control my anger.“Okay since it is from an anonymous source it should be true,” I said, and I walked towards the podium. The girl shifted backwards when she saw

Chapter 84: Power Trip.

Giselle's POV.I left my office, and walked towards the lecture hall I was going to take. I wasn't feeling well after Mr Wilson talked, but I still decided to do my job without any hindrance.I walked into the lecture hall. I noticed that the class was so disorganized that someone could mistake it for a market square. “Did they not know it's lecture time?” I asked no one in particular. I still walked to the podium with my head high.“Settle down class,” I said loudly, but I was ignored by the whole class. I swallowed angrily because I couldn't take it anymore. I controlled my anger, and decided to carry on with class regardless of their position or how organized they were.I opened my laptop. I took out some of the lecturing materials, I faced the class. I will list the course outline again, because it is almost exam time. “This will be the course outline for this semester,” I declared after listing the outline for them, but no one listened. I sighed heavily trying to control my a

Chapter 85 : Power Trip ll

Bryan's POV. I clicked on the video Mark sent. I watched the footage. I gasped after seeing a familiar figure. I predicted it, but I didn't expect Ivy to stoop so low. I went straight to the Dean's office. Knock knock. “Come in,” I heard. I went inside. The office was spacious, and gorgeous. It wasn't a regular office for any staff in the school, after the working chair and table there were three leather sofas in his office and a table that was shining. I wondered when they renovated it that much. ‘It was never like this before' I thought. I saw the man in his late fifties sitting comfortable in his chair with his legs crossed. His eyes were focused on his phone. He was wearing prescribed glasses. “Good morning, Sir,”I greeted politely. “Good mornin__ Mr Lopez,” he wanted to greet me, but he was surprised when he noticed my presence. “How have you been, Sir,” I smiled. “I've been well, trust you are doing well yourself,” he stood up from his chair. “Of course,” I nodded. “Wha

Chapter 86 : Bee

Giselle's POV. I ran out of my office immediately and hung up the call. I rushed to the hospital in my car. Donald wasn't in the country, so he asked for my help instead. His mother got hurt when she was on vacation in the countryside. But she was rushed to their family hospital in the city after she was attended to with some first aid treatment. I didn't know the reason why I was panicking for someone that hates my guts. I guess I could say I was still in my soft girl era. I had a lot on my plate already. I shouldn't add another thing to it. The traffic was bad enough that I almost got out of my car. I got to the hospital after some time. I got down from the car, and rushed inside. I started dialing Donald's number while working towards the ward, but he didn't pick up. I got to the front desk inside the ward. “Good afternoon, nurse,” I greeted. “Morning ma'am, how may I be of service to you?” the lady in her late twenties asked politely. “Which room is Claudia Martinez admi

Chapter 87: Going Back To Work.

Giselle's POV.The next day, I woke up early as usual. I started preparing for work. I got dressed and went downstairs. “Good morning, ma'am,” Susan greeted. “Morning, Susan,” I responded. “Hope you slept well,” she inquired.“Of course, what about you?” I asked. “Same here,” she replied. “That's great to hear,” I remarked.“Your breakfast is ready,” she informed me. “Oh okay, thanks,” I appreciated. I walked towards the dinner hall. She followed me. She served my meals personally. It was suspicious because that wasn't her job. She finished serving my tea, then she cleared her throat.I smiled knowing she wanted to discuss something. “Susan, what is it?” I queried her. “I am not sure if I can ask you something,” she proposed. “Ask away,” I gave her my permission. “What happened to the boss's mother? I heard that she's back in town, but she is not here yet,” she said curiously.“Oh that, I forgot to tell you guys because I was tired last night, so the thing is that she is in the h

Chapter 88 : By My First Name

Giselle's POV. Throughout the week, I struggled mentally on each epic day I experienced. I confronted Bryan that day. He confessed and revealed how much his coursemates helped me. I went to their lecture hall the next day. I was so grateful for their help and support. I got to know a few names among the students and recognized some faces. My working life went back to normal. Everything was going smoothly at work, but was it at home? My mother-in-law was discharged from the hospital. She has been an attention seeker ever since she got back home. Even the maids got tired of her constant insults. And I wasn't excluded. She could barely do something herself. She always plays the victim act anytime things happen. Donald only called me whenever he wanted to ask about his mother's health or welfare. He was never curious about my well-being or my work. I was told that he always drops by the house whenever I am at work. I was a little bit depressed that I was losing focus at work, but

Chapter 89 : The Confession.

Bryan's POV.I got to the hall earlier. I started preparing for the game. After some time, I checked my wristwatch. “She must be here by now,” I muttered. I left the hall and went outside to pick Giselle up. “Miss Giselle!” I called, after seeing her, but she didn't reply. I walked towards her, but when I saw a bike that was riding recklessly in her direction. “Giselle!” I screamed, running to her. She turned around looking surprised. I pulled her from the way. “Are you okay?” I asked, breathing heavily. “I'm fine,” she muttered.“You should be careful next time,” I said worriedly. “Thank you,” she mumbled slowly.“Let's go inside,” I urged her. “Of course,” she followed me inside.************************************“Wow! That was cool, you are so skilled,” she flattered me. “Stop it,” I playfully told her. “Why?” She arched her eyebrows.“You don't even understand anything about the game, you are completely clueless,” I teased her. “Well, you won, doesn't that mean you are skill

Chapter 90: Are You Leaving Again?

Giselle's POV I was stunned when I heard Bryan confessed his feelings for me, but I tried not to be swayed by his words.I honestly had the hint that he may like me, but I didn't know he was that bold.I left the place before I embarrassed myself. I got into the car, and zoomed out without checking the direction.I started thinking about his confession, but I kept reminding myself that I was married.Even though I was having issues with Donald at the moment, I still didn't think of cheating on him. I got to a point where the direction was confusing. I immediately checked the GPS in my car, but it wasn't working. I took my phone, and tried to use the GPS. The signal didn't work. “What? Why now? I didn't know anywhere around here,” I muttered looking around.There weren't any shops open around the area; it was so silent. “How did I even get here?” I asked no one in particular.I knew I wasn't in my right mind when I drove out of the place, because I was flustered after hearing such a
