CHAPTER 80Khlea's Point of ViewI couldn't stop myself from eating the food that Allison prepared. It seems that I was also guilty for not touching the food that he prepared for me, so I ate it.After I finished eating, I also put away what I ate. When it was over, I didn't know what I was going to do.I just let out a deep breath. I feel like it's my fault for Allison. Is it really that narrow minded and I let my jealousy exist even though I know that everything she does is just a show?Because I was hurt and I don't want to invalidate the pain I feel, so why does it feel like it's my fault? Did I really lack confidence in Allison?I just shook my head and pulled my hair. I don't know what to do. Do I have to coax her so that we can both be okay? But why do I seem afraid of stepping on my ego and pride?Because of thinking too much I just stomped in annoyance."I'll just go up to my unit," I whispered. I've already eaten so I won't leave.I walked towards the elevator but when I tur
Khlea's point of viewThe eight and seven grinned when they saw Allison and me in the kitchen cooking for the four of us for dinner. The eight looked at me teasingly. They sat on the chairs while I cut. Allison was in front of the stove."It's good and you two are okay. Let's guess who made the deal. Hmm…" The8 seemed to be thinking and then looked at me. "Isn't it you?"I looked at him badly. "Excuse me! I didn't make the arrangements!""What!?" The eight looked at Allison, who just shrugged. I didn't, and I told you never to go soft on Khlea!"Because I was surprised by what he said, I immediately took some pieces of onion and garlic and threw them at him."Hey! It stinks!" He complained while looking at me."Why are you teaching Allison like that? You should be fixing us up.""Khlea, I want you two to get along, but admit it, you are also wrong."I raised an eyebrow. "What? Get ready!""It's true, Khlea. Look, don't think I'm siding with Allison, right? But you're both guilty. You
CHAPTER 82 — Asking a FavorKhlea's point of viewEverywhere Allison and I went that night If we hadn't realized that it was morning, we wouldn't have decided to go home.At first, I really didn't want to go home, so I told her we should just stay at the hotel because she might be tired from driving. But Allison insisted that she wanted to go home and that it was okay.I was the only one who slept during the flight. I woke up when she gently patted my arm. When I opened my eyes, I noticed that we were already at the headquarters, and it was quite bright.She smiled at me. "Let's go to our unit to rest there.""Okay." I immediately moved to get our things.We got out of the car together. I noticed that Allison yawned. I approached him and held her arm. She still surprised me a little."Just sleep in your unit, huh?" I told her."Yes. You too. When you need something, just call me.""Okay."We entered the elevator together. When I got to my unit, I immediately changed my clothes and laid
Allison's point of viewEvery drop of rain outside is loud. I could see the cars and the people getting soaked by the rain. Seven told me that I would make some money today at the coffee shop.I picked up my cup of black-brewed coffee and took a sip. Its warmth quickly gave me a comfortable feeling. I leaned back in the chair and closed my eyes tightly.I closed my eyes because I was really sleepy.I opened my eyes and adjusted my seat. I pinched the tip of my thumb to wake me up.I don't know who Seven is talking about, but she sent a picture. According to my friend, I need to talk about us now because we have a new transaction. This is really who you are talking to, but Clifford did somethingI looked at the watch I was wearing and saw that it was two o'clock in the morning. I tried to call Khlea, but she is not answering my call. Perhaps it has been sleeping until now.I just stood up to choose food to buy for her later. I chose strawberry chocolate cake.I'm just now thinking abou
Clifford's Point of View "DO YOU know what happened to Nishane?"Seven asked me a question, which astounded me. Even I am unable to respond to such query. Even now, I don't know how my wife is doing. All I know is that she is still suffering the loss of our kid, therefore I can't really communicate with her right now. I would have gone with her if I could. But for now, the company needs me, so that's not an option. Despite the fact that my heart also mourns the loss of my angel, I cannot hold her responsible for her sorrow.I whispered, "I don't frickin know.""Shouldn't you be standing by her side?"My headache was getting worse. "I desire most to spend time with her, but she's pushing me away," I said.That's exact as well. She screams at me if I get close to her. She pulls me away each time we speak. I used to be her ally. But as time went on, she started to view me negatively. I am unable to communicate with her, approach her, touch her, or even give her a hug. She drags me
Khlea’s point of viewI didn't follow Allison when she left in front of me. That's right, because Candy's mommy called me. I will go with her to get the results from Candy's laboratory. Since she knows nothing when it comes to such things. Candy used to fix Cindy like this."Are you okay, Khlea?" she asked me.I nodded slightly. "I'm okay." I asked her to go where the results are being taken. While walking, I didn't know what to say later to Allison.I didn't know that anyone would see me. What I also know is that she is sleeping in her unit, so I was not able to ask permission earlier. I didn't want to keep it a secret from her because I thought she was resting since she drove all night. I breathed deeply.I arranged everything before saying goodbye to Candy's mother. "I'll go home first, auntie. I'll just come back tonight."She held my hand. “Thank you so much for coming here, Khlea. We owe everything to you. Come back because I'm sure Candy will be looking for you when she wakes u
Khlea's point of view"You've been drinking for a while. Maybe you're all drunk," Brenda said when she approached me.I didn't pay attention to her, and then I went straight to the glass and drank all of the contents. I heard Brenda laugh softly, so I gave her a bad look."Leave me alone; is that okay? I want to be alone," I said, then poured another glass of wine."You know, if I had only known that you were planning to get drunk on alcohol today, I wish I would have let you drink after drink at my bar. I wish my bar would have made more money.""I'm sorry because I don't want to go to your bar at this time either."Brenda just looked at me. I know that she wants to wean me. She can do that, but she prefers to let me. I heard her sigh. "So maybe you can tell me what the problem is with you two? I don't understand anything.""We were fine last night. We had a fun road trip. We had a date at a coffee shop with dancing flowers.""Then, what happened?"I told Brenda everything that happe
Khlea's Point of ViewMy whole body ached when I woke up. I don't know where I am. The place where I am now is dark. My arms and legs hurt. When I moved it, it was tied tightly.I got nervous. I tried to move to break the tie but nothing happened. My hands only hurt more."Is there someone there? Let me go!" I scream so that someone can hear me. "Help me!"I didn't hear anyone so that got me thinking. I tried to remember what happened to me before I came here.It came to my mind that I drank in Brenda's office and she drove me to my condo. There, two men entered and here I am."Shit! Mr. Tuazon's men planned this?" I struggled even more. Those men want revenge for hurting me.If I hadn't been drinking, I could have defended myself without a gun. My headache suddenly crept up, so I stopped for a while. I'm out of breath too.I want to scream and scream now but I know it's impossible for anyone to hear me. I tried to move more to loosen the binding but I was just in pain.Aces suddenly
