Kelly has not been herself ever since she left Edward, not only had he become a crucial part of her life but now starting all over without him was something she was finding difficult to do. She watched her environment. It was neat, but that was all she could do. She had done nothing but clean, she dared not show her face outside and checked her account every second of the day. There was not much money left and food was fast running out. “How I wish I could turn back the hands of time and I won't choose Edward,” Kelly laments. It was too bad this lifetime was for her to suffer the karma she had created. 6 years they had suffered her, 6 years and that had made her the fool, she had toyed with her feelings while sleeping her man right under her nose. She not only helped her mother, but she made sure she had a good job, she bought a house for her mother. There was nothing she ever lacked and now it was time to pay, it was time to pay Cassandra for all the stress they put her through, it
Edward sits in his office unsure of his next move to take. The contract has been resubmitted and with the mass total of 50, only 20 were taken. Half bread is better than none and this was only the beginning. “Mr. Edward, you have a meeting with the shareholders by midday and a store at the sight of Chanbouri at 2 pm” Mary announced before walking away. Edward only nodded, so much was going through his mind. He did not like the silence from the end of Mr Tarlor Carlvin. He was his boss and the business was his, he felt uncomfortable because everyone had spoken to him about how he almost crumbled the company but the owner was yet to make a statement. “What should I do?'' Edward asked glancing over at his phone” he did not want to do anything drastic but so much was happening from behind the scenes that he feared it was going to cause him so much more than he bargained for. Edward was quick to place a call through.“About time you called baby bunch, I've missed you” the sweet voice of
Kelly woke up earlier than before, she took the first bus heading into the city. She made sure to wear a mask and had her hair covered thoroughly. She was not taking the chances of anyone getting to know her. They were in the heart of Winter and having people dressed as her was not uncommon, the ride to the back as long as she took the bus. When she got up she made sure to hurry to the bank with no branches. Kelly had called her bank manager ahead of time and as soon as she walked in, she was let into a private room. “Why do you want to close the account?” her bank manager asked with a sad face. He was familiar with the only saga Kelly was caught up in but it was not his place to mention it, at least not while he was on duty. “I need the money, '' Kelly murmurs. She was having a difficult time breathing but she dared not release herself from the hold of clothes she wrapped herself in.”Now can I count and sign the necessary documents?” Kelly asked to pull out a seat for herself which
Kelly returned home with a happy smile, choosing sides had only been a thought, never did she imagine it working out in her favor, she hummed joyously as she put her clothes in order. “I may be out of money at the moment, but that won't be for a long time, " Kelly comforts herself. The day went by within the blink of an eye and the news keeping the internet busy still had not subsided. Photos of Cassandra and her husband spending a good time while the world was all waiting for them, made their fans and well-wishers conclude it was not true. As they all were waiting for a reason that caused the situation, Edward sat in his office in a gloomy mood. This was supposed to be his time to crush Carlson, he has kept this video for the longest time and now after airing it, it only gained more popularity and Carlson was taking it to his advantage. Edward was tired of being the only one angry, so he picked up the landline calling Mary into his office. “I need you to reschedule the meeting wit
Mary had a good time but that could not be said about the one seated right before her. When they were done, she could not stop taking pictures of the beautiful surroundings. When it was time for the check, Edward did take care of it. “Sir, the bill for the young lady was covered with that of the other guest,” the waitress tells Edward as she hands him back the payment for Mary. “The other guest?” Edward asked not sure of who they were referring to. “Yes sir, the young lady who had the shrimps of your girlfriend and hers paid the bill as it comes with extra charges for pilling and she said not to border you” Edward glanced over at Mary but she was as clueless as he. “May I see who the guest is? I would love to thank them in person” Edward stands up as the waitress leads them to the cashier. “Mini, where is the guest who paid for this young couple?” the waitress asked but Edward did not border on correcting her and so did mary. The both of them were more interested in knowing who had
Edward has never been more embarrassed but he kept his ego at bay. “Would you love to grab dinner with me... For old times sake, "Edward asked, glancing over at Cassandra who turned to him with a ferocious smile. “Isn't paying for your little girlfriend enough?” Cassandra asked with a small smirk. She did not know why she was entertaining this conversation, but she did admit it was getting funnier by the second. “Oh no... Mrs Carlson, you misunderstood. I am only a secretary to my boss, Mr. Edward loves you and I have my eyes on another. I dare not think of him in such a way” Mary was quick to act. Seated before her crush, misunderstandings as such were the very last he wanted him to hear. She wanted to keep a clean sheet as much as possible. “Oh, I see. So why are you eating out with a secretary at such a fancy place? Aren't you scared someone is going to be misunderstood?” Cassandra asked sternly. She was not in the mood to sugarcoat anything and neither did she plan on doing it.
Kelly did not stay long at her place as the men of Carlson came to pick her up. She was now to be living with them so they could keep better eyes on her. “Let's go, '' Alex orders. “Easy '' Kelly snaps. She did not like them pushing her around. The drive to the Carlson mansion was a quick one, as the car drove into the huge mansion, Kelly’s eyes almost popped out of its sockets. The buildings were not only magnificent but elaborate and beautiful. Now she understood why people living in this area were not only classified as the very top list but were rarely seen around. “Come with me '' Tessa tells her, while Alex takes the backs with the others from the car. As they walked over to the main building Kelly's pride was rising by the minute. It was common sense to know the servants did not live in the same building as the owners. Despite the kind nature of Cassandra and her family, the servants had an apartment all to themselves away from the main building. The doors to the main mansion
Edward and Mary could not tell when they got out of the DEKA Hotel, but they found themselves out. “I will drop you” Edward glanced over at his secretary, but rather Mary was taking small steps backward. “It's okay Mr Frank Edwards, I can find my way home” she protested almost immediately as she carried herself towards the gates. Never has she seen anything as scary as what her eyes saw today. She was still trembling and the thought of how she was going to face the same man in the office every day kept bugging her. This was not some small news and she dared not gossip about it, never had she seen Carlson Cobswell so angry, but the look on his face was enough to tell her a word of today's incident breather to a living being would bring nothing but her end and possibly the end of everyone around her. As Mary walked out of the building vicinity, the speeding car of Mr Carlson passed by her almost sending her flying into the gutters. From a glimpse, she could see a stunned face Brandon
