Jules sat in front of Hero's door fast asleep... After waiting for over twenty minutes, for Hero to tell her to come in, Jules decided to sit in front of his door but dozed off...Hero stared at the woman in front of him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "How can this woman, sleep at this hour?" He thought.Luckily Jules was leaning on the wall close to the door, or she would have crashed into the fall, once he opened the door.Hero's lip curled up into a smirk as he thought of a way to wake her up from her slumber. He hastily went back into his office, grabbed a bottle of water, and returned to where Jules was."This is payback for what you did to me the other night," Hero mumbled, spewing the water on her.Jules jerked up immediately. "Where am I, and why is it raining heavily?" she mumbled, dabbing the water off her face.Hero scoffed, rolling his eyes. He couldn't believe that his father had married such a fool. What did he even see in her? "Stand up you fool, how can you sl
When Jules arrived at the ground fall, the elevator beeped and she slowly walked out, due to the weight of the file she was carrying, and to avoid falling."Let me help you," someone said, taking part of the files from her. Jules glanced up to see a tall lean man with blond hair(Bryan), looking at her like she was some kind of goddess. Not just him, some of the workers who worked on the ground floor, also stopped what they were doing, and stared at her in amusement. some even took a quick picture of her to post in the group chat."Wow! The devil has a hot, beautiful, and young stepmom. If I were him, I'd be happy," Bryan thought.Jules cast him a grateful smile, but her smile disappeared when she saw the way he was looking at her. She also noticed that he was not the only one, but everyone else."What happened? Why are they staring at me, is there something on my face?" Jules thought, slightly embarrassed.She decides to ignore them, walking to her office, even though she could still
"No plumpy," Jules yelled, staring at the wet files in horror. In an attempt to leave the office, plumpy had mistakenly spilled water on some of the files, Jules was working on."Oh my goodness! I'm so sorry boss, I didn't mean to," he squealed, attempting to clean the file."No plumpy, don't! That will only make things worse," Jules warned, taking the files away from him immediately.She stares at the wet files in her hands. 'What do I do now? It's almost lunchtime, and he said immediately after,' She pondered, sweating profusely. She knew that she won't be able to finish the files now that they were wet, even if she had to skip lunch.Jules closed her eyes for a minute, deep in thought, while plumpy stared at her curiously.Once she snapped her eyes open, she said, "Plumpy, you've to do me a favor?" Plumpy's eyes widened. "Anything boss, even if it's to share my beauty tips with you, I don't mind," he replied.Jules shook her head. how will she deal with this plumpy gay, if he kept
"JULES VERNE! GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE," Hero yelled, storming into the cafe. Everyone twirled in his direction, staring at him like they had just seen a ghost. The doughnut in plumpy's hand drops to the ground. "OMG!" he squealed, his eyes growing wide like saucers, as he look down at his fallen doughnut.While Toby, Luke, Matthew, and Cersei's eyes were glued to the handsome man in front of them. “Is he human?” Cersei mumbled, twirling her hair in between her fingers.Although their cafe was very close to the Hi-Tech company, they had never come across Hero, apart from sighting him from a far distance...On the other hand, Jules blinked repeatedly. “Oh, God! Forgive me if I have offended you in any way, because I think it wouldn't be long before I come to you, in heaven,” She muttered under her breath, moving her feet toward Hero.Hero's scowl deepened and his fist curled into a ball when he saw that she was hesitant. “Can you hurry up, I don't have all day,” he growled, causing eve
Jules held half of the files, while plumpy held the other half, as they walked to Hero's Office. Hero twirled on his chair, as he tried to forget the incident that happened earlier with Jules. "What a witch!" he mumbled, wondering how he was going to keep working and living under the same roof as her. He thought about just moving out of the house, that way, he would only get to see her at work but decided against it. To him, that was like accepting defeat and giving his stepmom the chance to carry out her dirty ploy on his father and also trample on his pride. No! that can never happen. Hero was still lost in thoughts when a resounding knock snapped him out. "Come in!" He said, thinking that it was Bryan, but once Jules walked in with plumpy following suit, his expression darkened immediately.What are you doing here?" He inquired, a deep scowl plastered on his face.Jules scoffed. 'Is he blind or what? Didn't he see the files I'm holding?' She ignored him, striding toward his de
As they drove to the station, Jules kept yelling at the top of her voice, that she was innocent.However, one of the policemen turns to her with a scowl on his face. "Just keep quiet! That's what all the criminals say when they're caught." Jules scoffed, pouting her mouth in anger. "How can you call me a criminal? Do I look like one?" she yelled.The policemen chuckled like she said the most absurd thing. "Are you really asking us that? Look at yourself," one of them said.Jules glanced at herself. "Yup! I do look like a criminal," she mumbled.Jules didn't blame the cops, rather she blamed Hero. If he didn't make her a night guard, this wouldn't have happened. She wondered how Mr.Harper and Harley would feel if they find out, she was arrested and not coming back tonight. Will Hero, tell them the truth? Will he tell them that he made her a night guard after making her his second P.A, or will he fabricate a story instead...At the station, everyone kept giving Jules weird looks. "She
"Officers I...I don't know her. Who is she?" Hero asked, feigning ignorance."Her name is Jules Verne. We arrested her last night for trying to break into your company. And she said she worked here...I guess she was just trying to trick us," the officer said."Yeah! I'm sure she was," Hero retorted, a smirk playing at the corner of his lips.Bryan who stood there was confused by what was going on. 'Is it the same Jules Verne I know, or someone else?' he thought, tilting his gaze from Hero to the policemen."Officers, can I see the photo?" He said before he could stop himself.The officers turn to him. "Sure!"Bryan looks at the picture and his eyes widen in shock. 'This is the same Jules, Hero's stepmom. but why did he tell the officers that he didn't know her? Bryan thought, tilting his gaze to Hero.Seeing the look on Hero's face, Bryan decided to also act like he didn't know her. He didn't want to die at such a young age."Uhmm! officers, I also don't know her."The officers nodded
Jules stayed at home for rest of the day, until Harley and Hardin returned. "Mommy, mommy," Harley yelled, running into Jules's embrace."What happened to you? Why didn't you come home yesterday? I was worried," Harley said all at once."I... I erhm! I was working," Jules lied.Hardin who stood beside them scoffed, rolling his eye. He wished that Jules would always have to work from dawn to dusk, that way, he wouldn't get to see her face. Maybe her working for Hero wasn't a bad idea after all.Hardin shrugged, walking past Jules and Harley like they don't exist. "Hey! Young man, I'm right here," Jules mumbled, waving her hands in the air."So! what should I do about it?"Hardin answered, arrogantly, rolling his eyes.Striding toward him, Jules let an evil laugh, a mischievous glint flashing across her features. She was not just prepared to teach Hero a lesson, but also this brat, who always seems to disrespect her.Hardin moved back subconsciously. 'Why is she suddenly like this?' he
