Stunned, disoriented, and shocked out of her bones, Skylar looked up at the woman that stood before with a deadly glare, her eyes widening with confusion, “What... why?” she stammered breathlessly, her voice trembling uncontrollably. Adelaide studied her with a heated glare, the disgust in her gaze, palpable, “You skank!” she spat, her voice dripping with spite and venom, “You chose to ignore my message, have you not?!” She demanded imperiously. ‘She was the one who sent the message yesterday?’ Skylar gazed at the woman in further shock, wondering if someone like her was one of Ivan's numerous secret admirers also, and had the effrontery to come and challenge her physically. However, the gorgeous woman standing before her seemed to possess an intimidating outlook. It was almost as overbearing as Ivan's. “I do not know why you are doing this or why you suddenly sent a cryptic message, but can you please explain what is going on now?” Skylar found her voice even if it almost felt li

Skylar scurried into her office the next morning, her heart pounding in her chest as she dropped her bag on her desk, grabbed her work tablet instantly, and a folder containing the latest reports of the company. The morning rush from the car that dropped her in the front of the company had left her flustered and out of breath since she was late yet again, as she quickly smoothed down her dress, hair, and dabbed her face with a dry napkin to appear tidy. She took a deep breath, squared her shoulders firmly, and walked into his office after knocking. “Good morning, Mr. Hamilton,” she said, her voice slightly breathless as she stepped inside and strutted elegantly to where his table was, having prepared her mind for anything he would have to say to her for being extremely late this time. “Morning, Skylar,” Ivan's was smooth and eloquent, the way he called her name made it sound as if he had sung a musical note. She liked the sound of it. However, the urge to raise her eyes in shock o

Skylar flinched slightly under his intense scrutiny, feeling dwarfed by his towering stature, her heart racing uncontrollably as she struggled to maintain her composure, “It is nothing, sir,” she almost stuttered.Cowering with the fear he might see through her as his gorgeous eyes peered into hers, Skylar allowed her eyes to wander away from his eyes after she denied anything happening. There was no way she could tell him that his mother had hit her and said mean words to her. She didn't know much about Adelaide Hamilton, his mother, but judging from what she had sensed from working with Ivan for three years, she knew that the relationship between them was not smooth sailing at all. However, she had no idea what might ensue if she mentioned what her mother had done to her. ‘He might not even care,’ her mind quickly made her realize, ‘She was still his Mum.’Growing impatient with the vague answers that she was giving, Ivan's facial expression darkened even more, and he leaned for

“I cannot believe you are confronting me because of that secretary of yours!” Adelaide spat viciously, her voice rising with each word, “Is that it, Ivan?!” He had gone to meet her at her home yet the second time again, even if he detested it so much, and she was just right on time, ready to leave her house for a ball party that she had been invited to that evening. However, him asking her what she had gone to do in his office, and what right she had to treat his secretary so lowly, made her lose it immediately and started to speak angrily. He remained silent even with her explosive attitude, his stern gaze unwavering as he demanded answers, and knowing her, he knew that she would exude the exact behavior he had predicted - volatile and unremorseful. “That girl must have bewitched you! She has taken over your head and that is why you cannot even be in a normal relationship, even with your good looks!” Adelaide bemoaned bitterly as her eyes sharpened into a narrow critical gaze

“Wait. Was she the one you were with at the launch party?!” Adelaide Hamilton rushed more words at Ivan the more those speculations continued to occur to her, who stood in shock to hear what his mother was saying, as his stomach clenched in deep fury. “You slept with a lowlife human like her?!” Adelaide wanted to believe that she had just thought of the most absurd thing ever. “Do not ever talk about Skylar like that anymore!” Ivan interjected as he moved closer to his mother like a phantom, “She does not deserve to be sullied with words from you! Don't!” his voice trembled with indignation and echoed sharply, his eyes blazing with threat. “See how you are talking to your mother because of a mere servant!” Adelaide's heart trembled in trepidation at the way his voice commanded threat, but she refused to show it. She knew she shouldn't mess with him. “A servant?!” Ivan muttered in disbelief, his heart writhing to see his mother use words so carelessly in the most demeaning way,

Skylar swallowed when Ivan's eyes stared at her with an oblivion of how he was making her feel, her lips slightly quivered as she tried to reply to him, “I am very fine, sir,” she managed to whisper, his voice smaller than it had ever been. Ivan continued to hold her gaze, his thumbs gently brushing her cheeks, “Why didn't you tell me?” his voice was laced with guilt. She could swear that the expression that she saw lingering at the corner of his eyes seemed almost sad when he asked her why she didn't tell him, which made her wonder what he was talking about, and what it was that she had not told him. However, that was not even the most important thing at the moment, because there was another concern talking over her head right on that spot. Her chest was stifled with an emotion she couldn't quite name, and the way he stared at her apologetically, with a gleaming effect that caused crawling effects on her skin, made her feel vulnerable in a way she hadn't expected, “Tell you what?

The drive to wherever they were going seemed so long, with Skylar almost suffocating as she sat beside him in his sleek, brand-new sports car that he never rode with anyone but himself. She felt so uncomfortable sitting by his side while he drove both of them through the bustling city, when she was supposed to be the one driving the car as his secretary. For all the right reasons, she didn't understand what was going on or where they were going, her heart waiting in anxiety about where it would be. Ivan pulled into the expansive parking lot of a big, illustrious building, his car gliding into a spot near the entrance as he unstrapped his seat belt and stepped out so elegantly. She did the same, her eyes looking around to see where they had come to, searching for clues as they both took the underground elevator. That was when she saw the embellished golden letters that were scribbled on the walls of the elevator; AVARSON World Of Spas‘Why did they come here?’ she wondered as the el

Skylar sat in front of the mirror in her room after she took her bath and dressed up that night, as she gazed at her reflection so conceitedly, still amazed by the touch they had given her face at the spa to make it glow so impressively. The spa treatments worked wonders, which made her skin smooth and radiant, and her hair was styled to perfection in a way she had never done her hair, which made her feel like a different person. As she ran her fingers through her hair and admired it once again, her thoughts drifted back to hours ago, when Ivan suddenly entered the office and cupped his hands around her face so tenderly asking her if she was fine. Thinking of that at the moment, Skylar didn't realize that her cheeks had begun to turn crimson, as the memory of his touch and the way he had gazed at her, sent a shiver down her spine immediately.She felt her heart and stomach fluttering the more she replayed the scenario in her head over and over again, as her lips stretched into an e

“Dear me, your nails are so peng, girl!’ Kali's eyes lighted up in admiration as soon as she caught the sight of the gleaming luxury before her the moment Skylar was about to pass her credit card. “Thanks, Kali. I feel so good hearing that from you,” Skylar took one more glance at her wonderful nails once more, her heart swelling in exhilaration. “And how did I not notice? You look fire!” She complimented even more as her eyes studied Skylar, her lips curving into a tender smile that seemed more charismatic now, seeing her look so different from her usual self, “Girl. What is your secret?” “Oh goodness! You got me blushing so hard already,” Skylar's lips stretched into a very broad grin as she buried her face in her palms to hide her flush. “I am serious. You are glowing!” Kali went ahead to make her coffee, while Skylar stood patiently before the counter to get it, “Are you seeing someone these days?” her lips twisted into a mischievous smirk. “What?” Skylar's cheeks burned

“Have you seen the news this morning?!” Amelia almost blew Skylar's ear off the phone the next morning, just after she saw numerous news feeds with headlines about Ivan's new girlfriend. “Yes, I did,” Skylar's voice was calm and composed, as she got ready to take her bath. Her heart had been aching since she saw the headlines, and the tabloids that had splashed his picture across the front pages, arm in arm with a glamorous model, claiming she was his new girlfriend. It felt like a punch to the gut. “He had a girlfriend all along?!” Amelia yelled again, that Skylar had to keep the phone away from her ear instantly so that she would not go deaf. She just placed her phone on her bed and activated it on the loudspeaker as she began to step out of her clothes. “I have no idea,” she tied her hair into a bun, and walked to where she kept the new body wash she had just purchased. “Why are you not doing anything? Why are you so fine with it?! He took advantage of you even if he had a
