“Why were you trying to steal the cup?" Xavier asked.Giselle's heart pounded harder than it already was.He had seen her trying to put the cup into her pocket. How had she not noticed him?!"I asked you a question, Miss Harrison."She almost flinched."Why were you trying to steal the cup?" he repeated.Her hands became sweaty."I wasn't... I was..."He scoffed.Giselle dropped her gaze."This is fucking hilarious," he said.She closed her eyes and opened them."I saw the way you took the cup from that crew member," he continued.Oh gosh.She clenched her fingers."Your moves were very suspicious, so I had to follow you. And now, I walked in on this. You are stealing a cup now?" he asked mockingly.Waves of embarrassment washed over her, but she was more scared of him discovering why she was taking the cup."Why were you stealing my cup, Miss Harrison?" he demanded.Her heart dropped.She looked at him.He raised his brows at her.Giselle dropped her gaze and was about to speak, but.

“You heard me, didn't you?" Xavier asked.Seriously?"I remember you having good cooking skills. My maids can't make traditional dishes, but you can. So, you are going to work on it, and they will assist you," he said.He was really serious about this."Any questions?" he asked, looking at her."With all due respect, sir, I am your PA and not your maid or cook," Giselle replied, feeling her aching heart.She couldn't believe this.He wanted her to cook for his fiancée's family? Seriously?He chuckled, adding to her aching heart."You have said it all, Miss Harrison," he smirked."You are my PA. My personal assistant. You are meant to assist me personally, and this task is quite personal," he said.She stared at him, feeling angry already."I need to make a good impression on my future in-laws," he added."You really want me to cook for your fiancée's family?" she asked incredulously.He nodded. "Yes, Miss Harrison."Her heart ached."You should get on with it. They are literally on th

Giselle froze as the driver said, “Do as he says, ma'am.""Wha...."He turned around and showed her his own dagger.Her eyes widened."Get out, bitch!" the scary man outside yelled, grabbing her hair and forcing her to come out.She let out a scream as he clenched her hair tightly and forced her to lean on the car door. He moved the dagger to her neck, making her gasp as she raised both hands.Her heart pounded rapidly as she let out breaths of fear.Giselle sensed the driver walking out of the car. He grabbed her bag forcefully, making her whimper."Please... don't hurt me.""Shut up!" the scary man yelled, making her flinch and close her eyes. He was very close, moving the dagger dangerously near her neck."One more word and I will slice your tiny throat," he warned.Terror washed over her.God, his breath made her want to throw up.She had never seen her death so near!"What did you find?" he asked the driver, and Giselle looked at him. The driver was searching her bag impatiently.

Giselle walked out of the room dressed in the same clothes she had worn the day before. She closed the door and headed to the living room.It was a new day, Sunday morning, and she couldn't wait to return home to her kids. They had been bombarding her with texts.Not the kids themselves, but Blaire was the one sending the messages on their behalf. They dictated what to write, and she sent it to Giselle.Yes.They mentioned something about going to church, but Giselle didn't think they would go today. Maybe next week."Good morning, Giselle," she heard Isa's voice, making her look in that direction. Isa stood close to Marta, both smiling at her."Good morning, Isa. Good morning, Martha," Giselle greeted them, returning their smiles."Good morning, ma'am. This is for you," Martha said, handing over an envelope.Giselle accepted it, furrowing her brows."It’s from the boss. He said it’s your salary for the month," Martha explained, causing Giselle's heart to jump for joy."Wow, thank you

“Oh God, Giselle," Harley squealed excitedly as she hugged Giselle. Giselle was excited as well, taking the hug. "It's been years." Harley said, releasing Giselle but they held hands. "Five long years. You look good." Giselle said, smiling as she admired Harley’s expensive attire. I mean what you do you expect? Her brother is a billionaire now. "Thank you. You too." Harley said, making Giselle force a smile. She knows Harley said that just to make her feel good. "God, five long years, indeed. You know, i wanted to reach out to you after what happened but my brother didn't let me." Harley said.Giselle nodding, accepting the fact that Xavier hated her back then. He still does."I wanted to hear your own side of the story but you know how he is." Harley said.Giselle shrugged. "It's okay. I understand. I am not upset with you. I actually thought you were angry with me as well." Harley huffed. "No, I can't be angry with you. Especially when I didn't hear your own side of the story
