So, it was so hard to move around, having his presence in this house makes me nervous all the time."Grandfather?""Yes, come in," he said with a firm voice.

"It's time for breakfast, Madam." then she hangs up the phone.That was Alice, trying to annoy me in this early and silent morning. My eyesight reached the clock, marked 8:35... it's not early.

But seeing her in front of me, with her dark blue trousers, partnered with a dark blue blazer and plain white v-neck t-shirt, and a high heel, she dressed differently from before. I believe she was doing great with her new family. She really became a Laverde. It should be.I noticed her hair grew longer with side bangs and it suited her, she looks stunning as ever even though her hair was quite messy, she look like she had just woken up, and it shows on her swollen face. Similar countenance whenever I woke up beside he--"G-Good day, Mr. Carter," she coldly responded after a couple of seconds. I can sense how she firmly said my name. Of course, I expected her to be this way, giving me a cold shoulder."You two already knew each other?" Atty.

(Anastasia's POV)I entered the building with a gloomy feeling and low energy. My eyes were still hurt and swollen from crying last night. As my grandfather said, he wanted me to get married to that jerk Charles within this month, which is incredulous and unbelievable.His demands were still echoing inside my head, and it made me frustrated just by visualizing being the wife of that womanizer. How can I deal with these things? The elevator stopped and I drag my feet inside my office, throwing my bag and slumping on the couch while letting out a sigh, continuously."Oh, God!"I ran my hands through my countenance, planning what should I do to prevent the wedding from occurring.My thoughts were disturbed when a knock on the door resonated inside my office.I sigh and fix myself, striding towards my table before I yelled to the person behind the door to come inside.

(Anastasia's POV)Pretending to be busy in front of my laptop while taking a glance every second at the two men, comfortably sitting on the couch on opposite sides. They're talking as if they were in a restaurant, catching up on each other's life, reminiscing the past, not even taking a glance at me.From what I've heard, Caleb and Charles were classmates during college and they were varsity players on a basketball team, alongside Damian.Seeing them, exchanging smiles makes me wonder if they really did get along during that times.

(Caleb's POV)After Anastasia pushed me inside the huge cabinet but it was really narrower and smaller inside of it, the room became quiet. I can't see through the doors of the cabinet as it does not have any holes to peek through it.I don't understand why I have to hide from her grandfather. I did not even do wrong to him. We never met in the past. Even though we were in the same elite groups in the business world, I never had a conversation with him, not even a quick chat with him. Maybe because I have never usually been attending an elite VIP party circuit.I have these thoughts that he might have hated me for hurting his granddaughter, Anastasia. I can't blame him for putting hatred towards me. I deserve all of those hatreds.It's been more than 30 minutes, and Anastasia hasn't back. It must be safe now to exit from this cabinet.
