I just exhausted my brain thinking about a lot of stuff until I fell asleep. But I never thought that I would see my father in my dreams. Although, for some reason, my mouth wouldn't open to say something, the only thing I remembered was when he called me daughter and came to asked for forgiveness for all the sins he had committed against me and my mother.The only reason I realized I was crying was because he wiped the tears on my face with his hand. But why didn't I become enraged when he smiled at me and addressed me as a daughter? When I felt the warm embrace of a father who had been separated from me for a long time, I felt extreme happiness. I snapped out of my daydream and frowned. I woke up due to the alarm clock on my phone, which I put behind my pillow.I got pissed off and accidentally dropped my fucking phone on the floor. Then I heard footsteps approaching my room. So, my spirit woke up, and I immediately picked up my cellphone. It's good that it has a case and doesn't ha
Hailey or my half sister's office is just a few steps away from our department. I'm not worried or feeling awkward with Hailey since she has no idea that she has a poor sister like me. What I want to see is my father, Joseph. I want to know if I feel comfortable with him like in my dream because I am confused. Perhaps I was swayed by my mother's endless stories about him. This day passed, but I was disappointed. When I got home, I informed my mother that I had not seen my father. At first I was scared to tell her that but her reaction was different. "That is fine, the important thing here is that you have entered his company. The right time will come for our plan. For now, you need to rest!" She did not realize that her smile was turning into a bitter one. I followed my mother, I immediately entered my room and laid down. Although my earthly body is tired and wants to rest, my mind is different and it is forcing me to wake up because I didn't tell her about my half sister. I know th
The next day, I woke up early and replied to Nick's chats while I was taking my breakfast. I even apologized to him for not answering his chats yesterday evening. Fortunately, he is understandable to me. 30 minutes ago I left our house. And today, my goal is to see my father in person, so I need to know where his office is.I arrived at the office at exactly 5 a.m. in the morning. I wandered my eyes and the light from Hailey's office caught my attention, and through the transparent door, I could hear an old man's angry voice. I couldn't see his face because he was talking while facing Hailey.So, it appears that I arrived at the wrong time today. I turned on the light on the side of Sir Michael's office and, of course, eavesdropped to hear what was going on with my half sister."YOU ARE SUCH A FAILURE, HAILEY!! YOU ARE JUST A FAILURE! I TOLD YOU TO LEAVE THIS POSITION BECAUSE OF YOUR LACK OF INTELLIGENCE! THERE ARE MORE DESERVING PEOPLE THAN YOU! HONESTLY, I WISH I SHOULDN'T LET YOU S
Hailey gave me an appreciative grin. "Is that so? Then welcome to this company! I hope we can be friends, Stella!" Out of the corner of my eyes, I could see the blushing cheeks of Nick who was right next to me. It made me think that maybe he has a secret crush on Hailey even though in our chats, he blatantly tarnished her reputation. I stood up and went with Hailey. Damn! It's a painful feeling when your crush has another crush. I can see the attention that Hailey gets from the people around her, maybe if we are always together, I have to get used to this kind of situation. After we arrived in front of the elevator, two women came out and took a picture of Hailey. They don't wear uniforms the same with us so I thought they were working on another company. The worst part is, I took the picture of them with Hailey and I heard no thank you. When they left, I praised my half-sister while we waited for the elevator to go down to the ground floor. "Wow. Your charisma is so strong, Ma'am
She suddenly asked me a shocking question."How about you, Stella? Where is your father working?"What she asked me made me sweat. I almost swallowed the rice in my mouth without chewing. It took a few seconds before I stuttered to speak. I need to be very careful otherwise I'll be caught in my own lies."My... my... my father left us since I was a kid so my mother raised me alone!" I really tried to cry to bring him to my emotions. Fortunately I really cried in front of her.She held my hand and looked me in the eyes with pity. It seems I am a best actress as of this moment.She gave me an apologetic grimace. "Sorry if I brought such painful past. But I'm sure that you and your mother went through a lot and she breathed a sigh of relief when you graduated!"I agreed with what Hailey told me. "Well, I can't deny that what you told me was true. When she presented me with the award, our stage was almost flooded with tears!""Too bad, I am certain that your father regrets leaving you beh
Stella suddenly stood up and looked at the waiter in a mocking way. It looked like she was really fucked up with what happened."Fuck, are you stupid? Out of all the people who eat here, you're going to bump into me?"The waiter was on the verge of panic and looked like he was about to faint from nervousness. I tried defending him from Stella's rants."Sis, I am sorry on behalf of the waiter. Maybe he was tired!" I said with a firmed voice.I really hate people who think they are above other people. It really annoys me!Stella suddenly pointed at me. "Stop defending him, he should be punished for what he did. As customers, we don't tolerate like this to happen!"I was surprised that she refused to listen to me. I became quiet again. She turned back to the waiter who spoke again while keeping his head down."Ma'am, I'll just pay for your clothes if you want!"Stella grinned as if he was insulted by what she heard. "Are you kidding? Do you know how much this dress costs? Even if you wor
When we returned to the office, it was only 12:40 p.m. Almost all the lights in the departments were turned off, even my colleagues at work were al asleep. I slowly went to my seat and was about to sit down when Nick woke up. This guy has a sharp I immediately smiled at her and sat in my seat."Hey, how's your walk going, sir? Are you full?" he asked, smiling at me.I belched suddenly and looked around, luckily no one woke up. Andrea suddenly laughed at me."Hahahaha, don't answer. I already know!" he answered lamely, followed by another question, "Is Hailey a nice person to you?"The way that he asked this question, as if he really knows Hailey from the very start. "She's so much fun to be around!" I answered. "And believe it or not, we treated each other like sisters!"I wasn't able to detail the whole thing, especially when Hailey showed her bad side. That incident was really bad and I think it will be imprinted on my mind forever."Well," Nick said as he seemed not impressed wit
I peed and went out of the comfort room to wash my face. Damn! This is my first time experiencing I've ever been gossiped in my entire life and the pain is heart-wrenching. When I returned to the office, I saw Hailey glancing at her cell phone in front of my area. She was wearing a plain red shirt and her face was beautiful even without make up. I took a few steps before she looked at me and greeted me with a smile. "Hey sis, shall we go now?" she asked. "Sorry I was really busy a while ago with my work!" I went to my area and took my things while taking to Hailey. "That's okay, I am not in a hurry." "Wait a minute, what is your social media account or even just a cellphone number? Our email is for business purposes, so it's better if we communicate by other means!" I gave her my number and social media account. She sent a friend request to me, and I immediately accepted her. We walked to the parking lot until I saw her brand new Mercedes. My jaw dropped on the floor because of it
