(Aniya: One month later)“Finally, we are here,” Aniya told Derek who held her hand and leaned to kiss her cheek.“Yeah. Finally!” He looked happy too. It was almost a dream come true. His dream girl was at last by his side.They had just landed at the Sydney Airport and they both knew that their fate had brought them here. The same fate that brought them together.Aniya took out her phone when it vibrated. She had received millions in her bank account. Her mouth was hung open.There was a message from Gerald.“Take it as your gift from Garner Empire. I know you will never accept it. But this is a joint gift from me, Ashley, and Marwick so that you can start your life without worry.”Aniya felt strange. As a director, Derek did receive a good chunk of his due funds after he resigned. But why Gerald, Ashley, and Marwick were giving her so much money? For God's sake, this meant only one thing. Now she was a billionaire.“What’s the matter, darling?” Derek asked her while walking to the
(2 years later) “I went to the school today. The management is quite happy with Mimi’s progress,” Arabella told Jeff’s partner, Fione who moved to their house for her girls’ better education and job opportunities. Two years back, Marwick had offered Fiona to join his company. Even if she wouldn’t have moved here, Marwick had promised her long ago that he would take responsibility for Jeff’s family in his absence. Whether his girlfriend wanted to do a job or some business or even if she wanted to be a stay-at-home mom. He had promised himself that he would support the family as much as he could. There was an annex at a little distance from their giant house that was built especially for the family. “You should start dating, Fiona. You are still young,” the girl smiled and shook her head. There was a sketch of Jeff’s older daughter that was made by Arabella as promised to Mimi’s father. “Where are the twins?” Arabella asked her, looking around. “Oh, they just went to sleep. You wer
The CEO of a multinational company was crazily looking for his lost bride for the last five years. Who was she? How did she look?He knew nothing about her except that she had azure eyes. He was not aware that his wife might be working right under his nose in his office as his PA. That too under the disguise of a boy.Once he would know his PA’s true identity will he throw her out of his office or spoil her to bits?***River pushed open the glass door and entered the reception area of Garner Industries’ head office where every seat was occupied by either a short-dressed girl or a girl wearing layers of makeup. All of them were here for the PA position interview.She told her name at the reception desk and took the only empty seat.“The CEO of this company is so hot. I can’t wait to be his PA.” A girl said while fixing her lip color and popping her lips.“I have heard he avoids hiring girls for PA or secretary positions. He hates dealing with them. Most of them tried to seduce him an
The CEO of Garner Industries, Marwick Garner shifted his cold gaze to his phone when he saw the boy walking out with slumped shoulders.He always gave fair chance to women while hiring but the secretary and PA had to be men.He just could not deal with the constant drama and the sudden love/crush they used to develop for him out of the blue.Ever since he started taking his business seriously and Grandpa handed him the Garner empire, he wanted nothing but just a bunch of serious people who could take their job seriously.After firing three secretaries and five PAs, he had, at last, decided to appoint males for the positions. His secretary had been Mr. Theodore Panks for the last two years and now he was looking for a responsible guy as his PA.However, he could not advertise it openly because of media influence. The boy’s name had so much resemblance with his wife’s name.River Brown.The boy’s name was River Brower.All his detectives had told him that his missing wife’s name was Riv
“Yoohoo!” She squealed with delight, “I have gotten the job, Keanu. I love you.” She kept laughing and kept jumping in delight.“That’s great. Now listen to me very carefully.” Keanu didn’t want her to get in trouble. They were childhood friends, “From now on just forget that you are a girl!”“What?”“Yes! Don’t think of yourself as River Brown. From now onwards you are River Brower. Start walking, talking, and thinking like a boy. Keep your body tied under that shirt with that gauze to hide your curves, Love.” She nodded and sat on a bench on the busy sidewalk.“I know Keanu,” she rubbed her hand over her body which was taut due to the gauze underneath the shirt. Thankfully it was cold in Sycamore City otherwise the hot summers would have given her rashes under the bandage cloth.“Will you still spend the night at the train station?” he asked her softly and she smiled sadly looking around at the passersby.Did she have a choice?“So you will keep living on Metro stations and bus stan
The next morning, she so wanted to apply a bold lip color but then controlled the urge. This was the first day of her job and she really wanted to look presentable.And wanted to dress like a girl.“Anyways. Someday… soon… very soon, I hope.”She quickly washed her hair in the men’s bathroom and took a shower in a cubicle.“I know I have made it wet. Please can you clean it?”She quickly slipped a ten-dollar bill into the male cleaner’s hand and left the bathroom. Once she reached the office, she excitedly got rid of her hooded coat and took the elevator to the seventieth floor of Garner Towers.The cute receptionist hadn’t arrived yet. What was her good name?Yes! Aniya!River looked around and nodded at the cleaner woman nearby. She nodded back and got busy with her job.She sat on Aniya’s seat and started observing her place. It was neat and organized and there was a picture frame where she was smiling with two other attractive girls.They didn’t seem to be her sisters. Maybe frien
Focus, River. Focus. You haven’t gotten a p*enis. But you certainly have a brain. Focus, love.She kept telling herself.Chad seemed shocked when he saw a smile forming on River’s lips.“What? What is it?” he got confused because he was here to scare off the boy and to feed his l*ust.“Oh, Chad. How do you know I love doing it in the bathroom?” River placed her delicate hands on his chest and flipped the positions with a little struggle. Now he was standing against the wall, and she was near the door.Chad was looking at her, open mouthed and River was enjoying his discomfort.“Turn to the wall and tell me all about your wild imaginations. Zip that down, my boy.” She fumbled with his zipper and turned the man towards the wall.Her one hand was stroking his behind while the other hand crawled behind her to unlock the door. To slide back the latch.“Why didn’t you tell me that you like it? Hmm? You have come to the right person, Chady. My love. What a man you are!” She kept sliding her
“Listen, ma’am. Please stop.” She heard his desperate voice behind her. Ha-ha. Is Marwick Garner saying please to a common girl? He was following her. She was feeling like Cinderella followed by a prince. “Get aside.” She heard him behind her getting irritated with random people blocking his way. River's heart raced as she continued sprinting towards the exit door. She needed to reach her room, but it was a risk to take the indoor elevators. She had seen another elevator near the pool. Determined to escape the impending encounter with Marwick Garner, she could hear his voice behind her, filled with urgency and desperation. "Hey, wait!" Marwick called out again, his voice echoing through the crowded hallway. But nobody seemed to find it odd. Except, women were giving him attention for his looks. Not because he was running after a girl. River's instincts screamed at her to keep jogging, to ignore his pleas and save herself from any further complications. By this minute she had no
