Everyone was taken aback when she said that. Zoey smirked at their reactions and knew it was time for her second plan.She dragged herself away from the bouncer's grip and rushed to Isaiah. She stared at him for a while and without a second thought, she hugged him."Oh my love. I'm so sorry I'm late. I wanted you to have more time with your mistress."Everyone gasped hearing that. Mistress? Isaiah was left shocked by what was happening but he tried his best not to show how shocked he was. Whatever Zoey was planning, he planned on seeing it till the end.He placed a hand on her waist and drew her closer. "Why should I meet a mistress when I have you sweetheart? You are the woman I love." he licked his lower lips and smirked. "Sweetheart, I see you are dressed to hide your cleavage again. Well, that's a good thing. I don't want anyone to see the beautiful body that's meant for my eyes only." he said it out loud.Zoey was taken aback by the sudden turn. She raised her brows. "What are yo
"Please don't kill me!" she cried out loud with her eyes shut. She waited for pain in the spot she was shot but felt nothing. Or was she in the land of the dead so quickly?She slowly opened her eyes and her gaze fell on Isaiah who was seated at the same spot he sat when they walked in. He had a look of amusement on his face and that was when Zoey realized what was going on.She quickly put down her leg and sat down properly. She cleared her throat and looked away.It was all her imagination. Isaiah crossed his arms and relaxed on the chair. "Are you done showing your talent? I was enjoying it."Zoey couldn't say anything. She was too embarrassed to look at him. "What drink do you want? You can order anything expensive, I am willing to buy you whatever you want." he said and pressed a button on a small remote.The door opened and the staff standing outside walked in. He bowed his head a little. "What should I bring for you sir?""Get me more whiskey and get my guest whatever she wa
Steve smiled and broadened as he walked closer. He stood some steps before Zoey and brought his hand forward for a handshake."It's been a while, hasn't it?"Zoey took his handshake, still maintaining a shocked look on her face. Never did she think she would get to see Steve after so many years."I heard you call Isaiah Alcatraz. Are you acquainted with him?"Seeing Zoey was still lost in thought, Carissa stepped up to reply. "Haven't you seen the internet? It is buzzing with Isaiah and Zoey's story.""Really?" He brought out his phone from his pocket and logged in. Just as Carissa said, the first news he saw was that of Isaiah and Zoey.He smirked. "Wow, this is crazy. You are dating Isaiah?""That's not it," Carissa said. "Something happened and it amounted to that." "So what are you going to do?""Whatever solution is on ground." Zoey replied this time. She sighed and looked down. "But this is going to cause a big loop in my job. I work with celebrities and many well known personn
The both of them stared at each other, each having different thoughts running through their minds. A fake relationship for ninety nine days? Zoey wondered if it would be right thing accepting his deal. Well, that would be for the benefit of the both of them. Besides, she was the one who brought up the idea. She blinked her eyes and looked down, avoiding his hard stare. She cleared her throat and responded, "If that would help the situation, I would do it. But you are been confident about me falling in love with you during these ninety nine days then it's absurd."Isaiah smirked and stood straight. He adjusted his suit and went back to his seat. "You realize we would have to be together all the time right? That way, the media would believe our fake relationship easily.""I knew what was in store for me before I brought up this idea. Definitely, we would have to convince them. That means, I have to be by your side almost all the time." she bit her lips and looked down."What do you ha
Zoey eyes fell on the older woman, whose head was lowered. Behind her were five servants, all having their heads lowered."It's a pleasure to welcome you here. I am Clara, the assistant butler of this house. I will be in charge of your comfort and make sure everything is ready for you." The older woman said politely, maintaining a sweet smile on her face.Zoey's heart melted seeing the way the older woman was nice. She suddenly thought of her mother but waved the thought and focused on what brought her there.To think of it, she is only in the mansion for a while and that's because of the dating news. Then, why is the special treatment like she's someone important?"Come this way madame." Clara said, stretching her hand towards the door.Zoey shrugged and went ahead. Stepping her foot into the house, her mouth dropped. If the outside was jaw dropping, the inside was a paradise.He must have spent a lot on building and designing the house. Zoey thought as she looked around the house."
Zoey starred in bewilderment at the black gown and expensive heels he got for her. Calculating it, she could tell that they would cost more than a hundred thousand dollars. She recognized the brand. She had worked with celebrities who got those brands of clothes and shoes."We will be taking our leave now." Clara said and left the room along with the servants.Immediately they closed the door behind them, Zoey picked up the gown and raised it up. Her eyes widened even more.The black long trumpet gown was so beautiful. It had an asymmetric neckline and an embroidery of small diamonds.Her eyes fell on her peep-toe ankle strap platform shoe. "Is this dinner party that big to make him buy all these for me?" She asked and dropped the gown, before lying down afterwards.She stared at the ceiling as many thoughts ran through her mind. She closed her and slowly drifted into the hands of sleep.A loud knock on the door forced Zoey's eyes to open. She groaned as she tried to get up from the
There is a mix up."Isaiah stretched his hand to collect the result sheet but Asher drew it back. "She is the perfect person. She is truly Miss Hall," he laughed. "I was just kidding." he cracked and gave him the sheet.Isaiah glanced through it and squeezed it, rolling it into a ball. "You know, this is a waste of paper. You should have just shredded it."Isaiah threw the rolled paper into the bin. "Take care of it." He said and walked past him."Wait up Isaiah, I need to ask you a question."Isaiah stopped walking but didn't turn back."After defeating Steve as you plan, what would you do next?"Isaiah glanced at him over his shoulder and smirked. "Then, I don't care what would happen anymore.""Are you really sure about this?""I have made my decision since the day I found out about Steve's involvement in my mother's death. I will surely end his life and probably give in to death." he said and left.Asher stared at him until he was finally out of sight. He knitted his brows and lo
Zoey stood on her spot, not moving an inch. Her brain screamed at her to move but she couldn't. She was dumb stuck staring at them.The same people who hurt her three years ago. Why was she feeling a build up of hurt in her heart? The memories she wanted to forget rushed back to her again. Philip, noticing her staring at them, drew Rina closer and deepened the kiss. Seeing her hurt was what he wanted.Seeing what was going on, Carissa stood in front of Zoey, blocking her view so she wouldn't witness their act anymore."We have a lot of work to do that would earn us cool cash. We can't waste our time staring at people who are ruining their lives with their joblessness." she said out loud to the hearing of Rina and Philip."Oh baby, two baby penguins are watching us. What should we do about them?" Rina asked, louder than Carissa this time.Philip smirked and glanced at Zoey who still remained in her position. "Why should we worry about them when we are enjoying ourselves?" he asked and
