A Little Like Fate 49~ Discarded
LEVI I arrived at my grandfather's manor quite late in the afternoon. He said he wanted to speak to me when he called last night. He mentioned me going over in the morning but I didn't have enough time on my hands so I arrived late instead. Better late than never. I met him in his lounge, sipping some wine and nodding his head slowly to the beat of the jamming country music. I met my brother seated there with a boring look. "You can go back, the time has elapsed." He said on noticing my presence. Grandpa could be a very hard man sometimes but he should also be able to understand that I was busy with my already fixed schedule. There was no way Ellie nor Delia could cancel. "Good evening, grandpa." I sat opposite him, my eyes never leaving his face. He didn't seem annoyed or anything. He just had an indifferent look on his face. "I'm sorry, meetings were already piling up for me and I couldn't cancel them on time. Please, pardon me." I begged, hoping he'd change his mind. He only
A Little Like Fate 50~ Making peace
DELIA My eyes immediately caught Bruce and a weird lady who is his 'secretary' all over each other. She straddled him on the couch while he grabbed her arse tightly. I took out my phone and snapped the two of them. I would post it later and caption it in a way that the two of them would be so embarrassed and never show their face without protection. "I should have known," I said bitterly and the two disengaged from each other in a rush. "Carry on..." I said, smiled, and walked out. I quickly uploaded the photo of them and the first reaction I got was from Devin. 'I would delete that later when my anger had calmed down, but for now, let them face the music.' As I headed for the gates, I heard heavy footsteps approaching me and I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me it was the cheating bàstárd. "Delia, wait!" He yelled but I paid deaf ears to him. He finally got to where I was and took my head and I slapped him out of instinct. I was angry, hurt, broken."Don't you dare touch me w
A Little Like Fate 51~ Change
DELIA Levi changed. He changed for the better and he let me resume my work but only as his PA. The marriage contract was unanimously burnt and we moved on with our lives. The only difference was that I got another best friend. Levi made sure I got everything I wanted. He gave me breaks and even reduced the workload by coming to the office frequently. He was a total sweetheart and I was loving the new him. It didn't take long before he convinced me to go on a vacation with him. He chose the destination since I didn't have anywhere in mind and after some weeks, we arrived in Paris, the most beautiful and romantic city in the world. I felt privileged and I was hoping to be productive during my stay there but on the first day, I was still sleeping. And Levi wouldn't let me rest. He was always buzzing my ears with loud words and it annoyed me. I had to cover my ears with the pillow before I could sleep. The next time he entered my room, he peeled the duvet off me and I sat up in anger
A Little Like Fate 52~ No internet day
DELIA "Will you stop that? It's not funny." I said with an unamused look on my face. "I think it's cute." He licked the last scoop and stretched the bowl for more but I took it from him and placed it in the sink. "If you won't help out, you should just chill in the living room watching Netflix." "Fine, fine." He groaned. "What do you want me to do?" He grabbed an apron and a hat and then stood beside me. I chuckled a little at his funny costume before getting back to work. ****"They're ready," I yelled to Levi who sat in the living room using his phone. I had the opportunity of peeping into his phone and I saw he was texting with several of his flings. I didn't know why it disturbed me but I tried to tell myself that it wasn't my concern and it was his life. He had the freedom to talk to as many women as he wanted. Besides, he had the money to take care of them all after they were done with their business with him. "Come on, Delia, stop thinking about it," I said to myself out
A Little Like Fate 53~ Intimate
DELIA Everything was happening so fast. "Levi, please, wait," I said breathlessly. His hands were moving over my surface and I wasn't comfortable with it. I managed to move away from him. "This--- This isn't right. You're my boss and I'm your assistant. We shouldn't be doing this." I said with a flushed face. I couldn't look him in the eye anymore. "I'm sorry." I turned and ran to my room. My heart was beating fast. What would he be thinking of me? I closed the curtains which I had opened earlier and shut the windows. I began to pack my things. If Levi was to make any more advances at me, I didn't think I would be able to stop him or myself. I packed up most of my clothes in my bag and proceeded to my foot wears. When I heard the door opening, I froze at that spot. Damn! Why did I forget to lock the door? Levi walked slowly toward me and stood behind me. "What are you doing?" He asked. "Leaving," I replied. He sighed. He began to move and I swirled to stop him from getting
A Little Like Fate 54~ Hurt all over
LEVI "Hey, good morning." I greeted Delia with a kiss on her neck. She was making breakfast for the first time since we got here. "Good morning." She replied. "Hope you slept well." "Why shouldn't I? I had a very good night and I slept like a baby. Of course, because you were there." "Oh, you flatter me too much." She joked and set the table. "By the way, I was invited to a function this weekend. I was able to get two invitations.""Oh, really? Who are you going with?" "Who else is seated here? You, of course." I nudged her"I see... Thanks though." "You're welcome. By the way, you need to dress as hot as possible. If possible, hotter than normal. There are some people I want to pepper that night. Hopefully, they'll be there." I grinned. I scooped some food into the spoon and attempted to feed her. Fortunately, she didn't try to resist. "I don't want you worrying about what people at the office would think about us, okay? It's normal for people who work closely to fall in love
A Little Like Fate 55~ Harsh
DELIA I woke up with a banging headache. The more I tried to lift my head, the more it ached. But I needed to answer who was at the door. I noticed I was still in last night's party dress. Looking at it made me feel disgusted and I couldn't wait to get rid of it and every other dress bought by him. I didn't bother checking the footage because nobody's visit could surprise me. I opened the door to meet an indifferent-looking Levi. "Oh, it's you." I scoffed and leaned on the door. "What do you want?" "What do you mean 'oh, it's you'? Why did you leave without informing me? I called your number severally but you refused to pick up. You freaking had me worried. There are lots of pe----" "Listen, sir Levi," I cut in and stood erect. "When you're done vomiting all the lies in your mouth, you can leave." I moved three steps backward and slammed the door in his face. "And don't worry, I'll return your clothes so you can give them to those flings of yours," I shouted and locked the door
A Little Like Fate 56~ Pregnant or not
LEVI I waited. I waited for the doctors to come out and tell me Delia was fine but after three hours, none of them were out. It made my heart race. What if...? Nah, she can't die. That would be the most horrible thing to happen to me. Having an argument with someone in one minute and less than ten minutes, the person is gone forever? Nah, how then will I tender my apology? "I swear to apologize if she wakes up." I thought out loud. I never prayed but I would do anything to make sure Delia was safe. Why didn't I just confess how much I love her and that I was just trying to suppress my feelings by being mean? Why didn't I just do that? Now, the chances of seeing her again are almost zero. Man, I'm such a fool. She wasn't a fool for thinking I'd ever love her, I was the fool for trying to run from it. She's my addiction and I didn't know how I was going to live without her. The nurses told us to sign some documents and asked us to come back the next day. They assured us that she w
