Miranda's POVI stood still, gasping at what I heard but it seemed it wasn't stopping because it took only a minute before another voice spoke. “What would happen when she finds out you don't really love her but instead, you're using her..? Would that not be a problem..?” It was a female voice.“Miranda?” Maxwell chuckled that I had goosebumps on my back. “You know, at some point I thought of it too but then, I can do all things with just a word and she'd go all soft…” He affirmed.“What word would that be?” That female voice asked again in curiosity. In truth, I was also curious even though I could tell how hot and fast my blood was boiling in rage. I also want to know the word he says that makes me go soft.“A five letter word, sorry.” I could read the sarcasm of his words, it made me even more angry. Never would I believe I fell for such an ungrateful bastard but then, I did. The female voice laughed heartily while my intestine churned.“You.. you're quite the joker..” She said in

Edwin's POVAs usual, I didn't respond to any of their greetings since it meant nothing. There was only one person that would have made a scene if she was to greet me but that person is in my bed. I thought of it severally and could only come to a conclusion that, Miranda, though she's thorough, she had drank so much because I sacked her. The thought alone had made my morning.“Good morning sir.. The SLL group would be arriving later at noon to sign up the deal we offered.” My secretary informed and I could only respond be nodding.“What of the project..? When did they say they are coming..?” I asked as we stepped forward till I got to Miranda's desk. She would have been doing all of these if she were to be here. Nothing was left except for the company's computer. Her things were gone.“Did Miranda move all her things already..?” I couldn't help but ask. I fired her only because of what she had said but I never thought she'd do just that and get drunk. That lady..!!“Hmm.. Yes sir. Sh

Miranda's POVI didn't inform Christabel about my resume, not while she's still angry. She could rain a curse instead of a blessing. From outside our apartment, I called for a cab and soon, it came.On getting to work, I inhaled heavily, my heart thudding very fast in my body but the adrenaline was far greater. This is a new beginning, a new change should be seen. I stood outside the company, looking at the entire exterior and gaping real loud. I never had the chance to appreciate it before because I was overwhelmed to help out an ungrateful friend of mine.Stepping into the company, I went straight to Zyra's desk with a big smile. She has proven to be different from my judgment. She's not bad.“Good morning to you, Zyra,” I greeted, beaming at her.“Thank God you're here. I have almost become the personal assistant of the day. How do you do it..?” She asked, beaming beautifully back at me.“Just a little practice here and there.” I informed.“I see.. your box is back to where it belo

Miranda's POVAfter the call I had with Maxwell, I felt used and dirty. My head felt heavy but then, I felt accomplished. Every word that I uttered to him, every exchange was what I had practiced to say on a good day but now, it came out fluently.Never did the thought that I would come to drift apart from my long time friend click in my head. Although, Christabel advice on countless occasions that I end things with him.. I would still go back to look for a reason why I shouldn't. He has done a lot more harm than good. All along, I was only merely a tool and not the friend I thought myself to be and he made sure to use me to his satisfaction. Well, I can remember the saying that old things are passed away.. while all things would become new.To hell with the memories I thought we made, to hell with the ones I thought we're yet to make. I was still in my thoughts when Zyra came to my desk looking all worried only to bang the desk and wake me up from my thoughts.“We work at the company

Miranda's POVIt becomes easier when there's no interest in negative thoughts. The SLL group finally signed the contract and became a team with us. Everything was going just as expected but then, the sound of a knock on my desk drew me back to life and almost immediately, I frowned.“Did I disturb our newly found representative..?” I could tell of the sarcasm beneath the voice. I looked up only to find the company's manager, staring back at me.“I am so sorry…” I pleaded, immediately getting on my feet.He looked more like a person that wouldn't want a no for an answer. Almost carrying Edwin's aura but then, there's something spectacular about Edwin's that this young man here doesn't have. Shit..! Why do I think of him?“No need to be. I just wanted to see the new representative of the company that has been able to pull my brother's attention. It turned out to be you,” He continued. I couldn't help but scrutinize my eyes. He's Edwin's brother..? It was confusing but somehow, it wasn'
