An hour past noon, we were told that the new boss have arrived. Maxwell came to me, and also told me what I have heard already. I grabbed my stuff and about to head to the board room to wait for him. We are all supposed to already be in the board room before he walks in."Are you going to keep ignoring me? Maxwell asked, as he was trying really hard to keep up with me.and why are you walking so fast? He asked again, and that was when I paused to answer him."First, You said, I was dragging myself, that I don't have to tell the world I am pregnant, and now, you are asking me, why I am walking fast? I asked him, when he didn't have answers for me, I shook my head disgustedly at him.It was obvious that I am angry with him, for ignoring me for so long, and also, speaking to me, in an annoying way."Fine, if you are not going to speak to me, you can keep ignoring me, but I wanted to speak to you about the new boss, so you prepare your mind before you see him". He says and I would have w
CRAIG'S POV.With what happened to jade, and the way I responded to him, I knew he would go ahead to do what he wants to do.He told me what his wife did, and pleaded that I get his company, to enable him pay off his debt, but with Samantha there, I didn't think I needed it, though I wanted to support him financially as a friend, and give him more time to pay off, but he thought that selling it was the best option,. I thought that if I didn't buy it, he would change his mind, and take my offer, but to my surprise, he told me he had gotten a buyer, and only after he handed over the documents, did he realize, that the buyer, is Edward.I know that by now, Samantha must have met with him again, and sharing the same space with him, I fear that he will hurt her again, but then, she have chosen to be with Maxwell, so he should protect her.I was tempted to send a guard there, to know how she is doing, but then again, I changed my mind, I should let her be, but that evening, I got a call fro
Third person's POV."Now that I have gotten close to her, I just need to be nice to her, so that I could destroy her completely from inside, just maybe, if I can get her to fall for me again and believe in me, she could tell me everything Craig knows, and then, I will be ready to fight". Edward says, and even though Joe could not understand why he wants to fight to get her back, he is happy, that it will end with him finding whatever it is, Craig knows about them."But are you really going to keep the company? He smiles, shaking his head in the negative."I would have, but that is not my line at all, and since she seem to understand the stuff, I want to make her the owner, but first of all, I want her to fall inlove with me again". He says laughing hysterically."But with the way you are speaking with her so far, I don't think she will fall for you, plus you said she is pregnant for that guy, so why do you think she is going to love you? Joe asked, and he laughed some more."She isn't
Edward was doing everything possible to make sure Samantha and Whitney have smiles on their faces. At some point, he even acted like a clown just to make Whitney laugh out loud, when he finally succeeded, he went down on his knees and apologized to his daughter.Whitney was quick to tell him to get up, for she wouldn't have her father, kneel for her, he pulls her close, hugging her side."I am really sorry I drove you away, it wasn't my intention at all, I was just depressed, I was missing your mother too much, that I took out anger on you, I am so sorry". She nodded, even though within her, she still feels awkward, being so close to him. Samantha also looks away, she didn't want to look at him, so he doesn't think, what he is saying, is getting to her."Can I play with the toys now? She asked, for her eyes, are on the toys he had gotten for her."Sure you can". He says and she jumps excitedly, going to where the toys are. That was a chance for Edward to finally be alone with Samantha
Maxwell stared at them annoyingly, but he dare not say a word to her, not after the warning from him."You didn't tell me we would be attending any meeting, why didn't you tell me last night". She says, worried that she wasn't looking too good for an international meeting."I just learnt about the meeting today, you know, I am new at this, and my lawyer didn't inform me on time. We have to be at this meeting". He says and I just wonder, why he wants me to be there with him."You could go for the meeting alone, you don't have to take me along with you". She tells him, but then he turned and gave her a stern and hard stare. If he isn't trying to get her on his side, he would have said something she wouldn't like."You are the one that should be going to the meetings, but because of your condition, and what I heard happened to you, the other time, at a conference, I don't want to take the risk, I will be there for you". He says, shutting her up, she didn't want to say anymore, and she su
Third person's POV.Back inside the hall, Edward sees Samantha walk back in, covering her lips, as if there was something on her lips, that she didn't want people to notice, so he bent down staring at her."Are you okay? He asked her, before looking towards where Sandra is, and noticed that Sandra is alone, and staring daggers at them. He also noticed that Craig isn't with her, but his parents are in the hall, he started to suspect that they have met, and maybe he said something to her, but when she looked up, she shook her head, trying to explain that she feels like throwing up, and that is why she is covering her mouth. Since Edward already knows that she is pregnant, and is likely to feel that way, he paused his imagination about Craig, and tried to take care of her, but then, his company was called upon to give a presentation, and since he didn't know what to say, he urges her to go up and say something as regard what was said. She looked up, and the first person her eyes met with
Craig got home, but he couldn't stop thinking about her, and no matter how much he tries to make himself believe that he is angry with her, he just couldn't stop thinking about her.He decided to call her, for the first time in a long time, he decided to call her. When she saw his call, she knew it was him, and because she too have been thinking about him, she took the call, wanting to know what he has to say."Hey! He greeted, but she said nothing, so he continued.You were great as usual.She smiles, and then said "Thanks". it was more like a whisper."I will like to see you, there are things I would love to discuss with you". He tells her, and she replies."Whatever you have to discuss with me, you can say it now, I am a very busy person". She says, acting like she isn't happy, that he is calling."It is good that you are a busy person, but I still want to see you". He says, and she nodded, as if he was staring at her."Fine then, when you are ready, you call me". With that, she en
"What the hell! Maxwell managed to exclaim, holding his lips, that seem to be gravely shaken. He couldn't be beaten by a younger person, and just let it slide, no matter the guards around him. So he got up in a hurry, but didn't even get close to him, before another punch landed on his nose, making his nose to bleed. He cried out in pain.Ahhh! Do you go around beating random people, because you feel you can beat them? He asked, not wanting to make the same mistake of going close to him again."I don't go around beating people, but I feel like beating you to stupor, till you realize what you are doing". Craig says, moving closer to him, while he crawled backwards with his butt."Stay away from me, you are a psycho, what did I do to you? I don't even know you, so what are you talking about? He asked, looking really frightened."You don't know me, and you don't have to know me, but you are hurting someone I care about deeply, by being here with another woman, and so, I will deal with yo
