The first agenda for the day was the boardroom after Ivan and Skylar's little escapade in the office, and she had already organized the reports for the meeting, which made everything go smoothly as usual. With the board satisfied after a roundup of the meeting exactly one hour later, they moved on to the next task of the day, which was a roundtable discussion with the heads of each department. As each department lead gave their report, she took diligent notes, and provided documents for the projected budget while grinning and chuckling endlessly at their shared sense of humor. By the time they returned to the office, Ivan proceeded to complete his schedule for the day, as well as some impromptu virtual meetings that kept him busy till the end of the day. After spending a few minutes after her work hours ended with Kali at the café, Skylar returned to the office while sitting restlessly, awaiting Ivan to be done with his work for the day so that he might tell her what he wanted of

“Did you tell your mom about me?” he asked her again, his voice laced with curiosity and bewilderment. Skylar turned her face in his direction, her eyes sparkling with mischief, as her lips curled into a playful smile, “Why? Are you worried about what I said?” she teased him, as she mumbled on the sandwich she had with her. They had stopped by at a café since it was too late to eat something heavy, and Ivan had bought so much food without thinking too much, knowing that she would be hungry already. Still, he was so curious to know and had to ask her again, when she playfully ignored him the first time. He rolled his eyes almost unnoticeably because she seemed to be amused by how concerned he was, as he tried to lean back in the car seat and drive more comfortably, “I just wanted to know what you might have said to make her ask you something about him,” he cleared his throat again. A small, cute, and carefree laughter that always made his heart skip a beat escaped Skylar, whose

Ivan’s fingers tapped idly on the armrest of the sleek, modern massage chair in his private lounge, as he adjusted his position and pressed some buttons to relax his nerves as soon as he got back home. He had been contemplating if he should call Skylar and ask if she was still asleep, or busy with something, when a video call from another person went through and connected, as the familiar face of his friend appeared, albeit slightly pixelated due to the patchy signal.“Hey,” Leo greeted him with a tired smile as he leaned back in his chair with the signs of exhaustion evident in his eyes. “You look like hell, man. Rough week?” Ivan teased with a smirk, twisting his lips up, as he brought the camera closer to himself to look at his face properly. A weary sigh escaped Leo's lips, as he rubbed his left hand over his face, as if to brighten up the dullness of it, “You have no idea. I am so sorry I didn’t catch you before I left, and that I have not been back as I planned too. Schedul

The next day at work, during her break period when Ivan was busy with a meeting, Skylar in no time ran down to the café to meet Kali, who seemed to be so busy because of the rush hour from the employees break at that particular hour. She joined her in serving even if Kali insisted that she should not, and the two were able to get the work done faster, and finally take a break for a few minutes after the break ended. That was when Skylar was able to tell her the most annoying issue going through her mind with a frown on her face while stirring her coffee absentmindedly, her voice laced with frustration, confusion, and sadness.“I just don't understand it, Kali,” Skylar began with a heavy sigh, after pondering endlessly, “Ever since my friend, Amelia found out I like Mr. Hamilton, she has been different. Something like anger and bitterness. I get that she doesn't really like him, but it is like she is using every opportunity to throw subtle jabs at me. I can’t even talk about my work

The rain came down hard in the city shortly after Skylar left the bowling alley to the hospital, and on her way back, realized that she didn't even wish to go home because of the confusion that was deeply engraved in her mind about Amelia. She still felt so terrible for lashing out at Kali, who had given her advice not out of her own will, but because she asked for it, and calling her to apologize at that moment was not even an option, because she would be unable to pick up while working at the bar. It suddenly felt like she was lonely with no one to call and no one by her side. She stopped by the side of a street food stand at a busy night street that somewhat led to her house, and bought her favorite street food, before suddenly making up her mind to go and see Ivan that moment. However, it had begun to rain cats and dogs on her way to his house, and she was thoroughly drenched by the time she made her way into the gate and ran from the gate to where the main mansion was.

Skylar’s feet felt so draggy and wobbly as she made her way towards the café, her heart heavy with so much guilt and fear about what Kali's reaction towards her would be if she appeared before her. She spent the late hours of the night drawing the perfect image of what she wanted her jewelry piece to look like, and barely slept even when Ivan tried to get her to. As soon as she was back from the on-site schedule for the day with Ivan, who was having a video conference with the head of teams at the Asia head office sector, she knew she had to see Kali. Her thoughts had been consumed with replaying the words she had said to Kali before leaving so angrily, and they echoed in her head, twisting her stomach with regret. ‘Why did I even say that? Why couldn't I just wait to listen to all she had to say even if it wasn't true or not?’ She winced sadly at the memory, feeling the weight of her harshness in her heart. The café came into view, and inside, through the large glass windows, sh

As the two stepped out of the sleek white Rolls-Royce sweptailand onto the grand driveway of the huge Hamilton mansion, where the yearly mandatory fundraising event usually took place, all eyes could not help but trail after them, especially since they recognized the man of the event. The fundraising event was a tradition that Ivan's father had always upheld and took very importantly, because the funds received were always donated to orphanage homes and centers where less privileged people often found refuge. It was also a lavish event where the wealthy and influential mingled. Though Ivan had been quite reluctant to attend because he didn't want to be reminded of the memories he had in the mansion he once lived in as a young boy, Skylar was able to convince him to attend because the invitees would be most honored by his presence. Skylar looked utterly stunning in the floor-length midnight black dress she wore that accentuated her perfect curves, and shimmered beautifully against

“What was she doing here?!” Skylar's head continued to spin endlessly, as she stared at the tall, elegant, and effortlessly stunning figure that stood in a place where she could easily be spotted, as if she were the spotlight of the event. Her eyes quickly darted away from Gwen and her heart sank, the more her haunting request from days ago echoed in her mind now, making her feel like an intruder in a world that wasn’t supposed to be hers.It had been so hard to stop herself from asking Ivan any questions after that day, and to pretend to forget her earnest request to help her back with him. ‘How could she even do that when she was not foolish?! Help her get back with him?! What a joke!’ Skylar could not help but chuckle maliciously anytime the thought occurred to her, but another thought that followed, ended up making her feel even worse. ‘They used to date? Gwen was Ivan's ex? She was a woman that once had Ivan to herself?!’ She was restless the entire night and barely slept, t

Heavily mortified, Skylar’s heels clicked silently hurriedly on the mown floor of the event, and she disappeared from everyone's sight, with the sound of their laughter and mockeries echoing behind her ears as if she were still in the scene where she had just been humiliated. Her chest tightened with pain at every step she took, and her breath became shallow and ragged, as she tried to stop the tears that had begun stinging the back of her eyes from falling. She was so broken and sad because of the fire of words that she had just been burned with, and it hurt to think that she didn't even know what she did to deserve such treatment from Adelaide, who had never liked her. Adelaide had reduced her to nothing in the eyes of the wealthy and powerful people where she already felt so out of place, to begin with, and the biting words about raising funds for ‘the only poor person in the room’ echoed despairingly in her mind.Skylar ran so fast away from the sight of people with tears str

Skylar froze at the sound of the familiar voice from behind her, as her laughter died on her lips instantly, and she turned toward the entrance of the terrace to see Ivan standing there. He stood there with cold eyes as his murderous eyes blazed furiously at both of them, as the air around crackled with tension, his hands trembling with a repressed anger. And instantly, the playful gesture that lightened up with the mood between Skylar and Grayson just a few seconds ago vanished instantly, his presence commanding a menacing aura that screamed an impending eruption, as the coldness in his stare sent shivers down her spines all over again.“What do you think you are doing?!” he barked at Grayson, his voice booming like thunder, as he matched forward with an indelible stride that pronounced his anger, his gaze burning with an intensity that could scorch him right on the spot. Grayson had an amused smirk dancing on his lips as he casually leaned back against the railing, still refusin
