CHAPTER 119—Her Husband's MistressNishane's Point of View"Flowers for you, Miss Nishane," Mirae said with a teasing look at me. I haven't even asked who a bouquet of flowers came from, I already have an idea. "Even if you don't ask, I think you already know who it's from." She still smiled at me.I stopped writing. Mirae and I were doing inventory but I left her in the stock room earlier because I went to the office first. It didn't take long and she followed me and already brought flowers. I let go of the ballpoint pen I was holding and took the card placed on top."Hanz," I said simply then let out a deep breath. "Do you have it too?"Mirae shook her head. "I've never received a flower in my entire life."I frowned. "Why?""Why? Of course no one will give it to me.""Are you sure? Isn't Hanz giving you something? As in nothing?""Well, sometimes I have things that you have. He also gives me but not always. Should I be surprised? He wants you and not me.""But..." I couldn't contin
CHAPTER 120—What is wrong... with her?Khlea's Point of ViewWHEN I entered the office, I immediately noticed that Luna was not in the mood. As far as I remember, she was fine yesterday when I left her at her office. I went inside to bring her the brewed coffee that she always makes for me. Even though she doesn't say anything, I can feel that she woke up this morning feeling bad."Your coffee, Miss Luna," I said but she didn't look at me. Even a simple nod should be done by her, but she doesn't do it.Even though I was wondering, I just ignored her. I went to my table and started doing the work I had not finished. I have a report that needs to be submitted later to Luna. Because it still needs to be done after lunch, I still have time to finish it.I hadn't started what I was going to do when I heard the intercom ring. "Miss Kazel, I need the file that I asked you the other day.""Miss Luna, I thought you needed that later after lunch?" I suddenly had a panic attack because I didn't
CHAPTER 121—Not Feelin' WellNishane's Point of ViewI felt bad that's why I didn't get up right away. I woke up at noon because my body was really heavy and my eyes were hot. This morning when I woke up, I immediately called Mirae so that I couldn't come in. But I realized that I had a meeting that I had to go to today. I can't pass that on to Mirae because that friend of mine is already doing a lot.I still took a shower so that somehow the heat of my body came out. I'm a little dizzy but I'll just take the medicine later before I leave.I feel the slowness of my every move. Even putting makeup on the face was slow. I need to put on some so that I don't look pale in front of my meeting people.As planned, I took the medicine before leaving the house. I'm in my car now. I'm not leaving yet because I'm still fixing myself. I might get dizzy while driving, I might even have an accident. I took a deep breath before starting to drive out of the garage.While I was on the way, Hanz called
CHAPTER 122—Path Never Cross AgainNishane's Point of ViewI FELT EVEN worse because of the meeting I had with the two Japanese people who will help me beautify the new branch of the coffee shop I will build. Add to that my head and chest hurt because I saw Clifford earlier. I really didn't expect that we would both meet at the restaurant. Fortunately, my meeting is over and Hanz and I are going home.I want to laugh because it seems that fate has promised that our paths will cross again every time I'm with Hanz. I couldn't help but worry about what Clifford would think about me and Hanz. I know that I shouldn't care anymore about what my ex-husband thinks but I also don't want him to think that I'm that kind of woman. I'm not like the others who looked for another man to love.I didn't have that thing in my mind especially when something bad happened in my life. I don't seem to be able to love another man besides Clifford. I mean, he's the only man I've ever loved and I can't imagine
CHAPTER 123—Have No RelationshipNishane's Point of ViewTHREE days passed quickly and I felt better. I'm not sick anymore but Mirae still won't let me enter the coffee shop. What my friend wants is for me to stay at our house so I can rest properly. It was effective because I felt better. Even the things I could work on using the laptop, Mirae didn't allow me. She really watched over me so that I could get better.I've taken a shower and I plan to go to the mall. I need to buy something and at the same time, I want to go for a walk because I've been staying at home for a few days. I want to have something new to see. Mirae and I didn't have any stock either, so I thought we'd just go shopping for food for the two of us.After getting dressed, I immediately took my bag and the key. I will ride with what I brought until I get to the nearest mall. As per my to-do list, I bought things for the house, at the coffee shop and also some food that we don't have anymore. I'm having a lot of fu
CHAPTER 124—An Invitation from Her FatherNishane's Point of View"WHAT'S that?" I asked Mirae when she was at my office. She has a paper bag with her. My friend's smile was so wide that's why I was surprised. "Is that from your lover?" I asked her. There could be no other reason for her to smile like that.Mirae's smile suddenly disappeared. "I don't have a suitor. And I don't have time for that." She placed the paper bag on top of my table. "So this gift is not for me.""Huh? Whose?""It's for you, probably!" She glared at me. "Look what's inside. I want to see." My friend smiled sweetly again.Thinking that the gift might be from Hanz again, I opened it lazily. I was just as surprised to see a small card inside the paper bag. I frowned.Mirae noticed that. "Why? Whose is that from?" My friend stood up and came to my side. "Mr. Cassiana? Isn't that your maiden surname?" she asked me.I was suddenly nervous because it had been a long time since I knew that my father was still alive.
CHAPTER 125—Meeting Her FatherNishane's Point of ViewEven though I shouldn't be nervous right now, my chest is still pounding. Just a moment ago at home, Mirae told me not to be nervous but I still couldn't help it. My heart seemed to want to come out from beating so hard.I was still in the car and in less than five minutes I was at the restaurant where my daddy would meet us. I can't remember the last time we met and talked. That's why it's not impossible that I feel this way.When I got out of the car, I immediately entered the restaurant and was looking for my father. I didn't see any of the people there, so I asked a crew member. I immediately thought that daddy might be in the VIP room, so I asked where he was.I was not mistaken and the crew escorted me to a VIP room. Daddy is drinking tea with me close to him."Dad," I called his attention, his attention went to me.Daddy smiled broadly and stood up. My brother hugged and kissed me. "It's good that you accepted my invitation
CHAPTER 126—Her Mom is BackNishane's Point of ViewMY NEXT few days went well after we met daddy. A part of my heart was relieved. I'm at the coffee shop now but I'll leave soon because I'll meet someone at the mall. That's my supplier who was once a classmate of mine in college."Are you going to have lunch with the supplier? I'm not going to wait for you?" Mirae asked.I first looked at the watch I was wearing. "Maybe? I'm not sure yet but when we finish the meeting early, I'll call you."My friend nodded. I told her to leave. I got out and went straight to the parking area where my car was. I didn't get in right away because a car stopped in front of the coffee shop and the door opened. When I saw who was inside I was stunned.Until the woman who was riding got off. She smiled widely when she saw me."Nishane, my daughter!" my mother said loudly.I smiled at her even though I was a little awkward. There are many people around and they also know her anyway because she used to be a
