It's finally Saturday and Louie seems to have stepped out of her Trance of fear.
She was arguing with Jennifer, a slim sized elderly lady who helped me pick out my gown about what type of earrings suit my dress.
" A really really long dangly one, don't you think so mummy?"
Jennifer laughed at her persistence and grabbed her with both hands.
" I think your momma should be better off with a stud or a pearl, don't you think Claudette?"
" Of course I agree but that little ninja in your arms might bite our head off if we do otherwise " Claudette who was adding finishing touches to my make up said before she peeked behind me to know if Louisa heard her.
And she did.
" If mummy doesn't wear my earrings then I am not going to scho

Hunter's P.O.V.———————Our ride to Peachvine Marques where the dinner will be hosted was a pretty long and frustrating one. I had to make Edward drive us to the event and come back after four hours to pick us up because I really didn't trust myself not to stop this vehicle by the roadside and try something stupid.She's calling for trouble on her own, how can she wear this and expect me not to strain. I'm a full grown bloody man for fuck sake and she's a girl with everything.Fuck hate. The hate didn't stop me the last time, I'm only praying it stops me now.Fuck hormones.Fuck women.Fuck this stupid Gala.Fuck everything. I'm seated at the opposite end of the Mercedes Benz C300 I chose for the event and I lo

Mr Reid was a true iconic figure, you could even tell just from his movement. But that wasn't the only thing that caught my eye. Mason walked into the building directly behind his parents looking too edible for my health. His long blonde hair was held back into a smooth and shiny bun, meanwhile his matte black tuxedo gave him an exotic appearance. I could definitely feel his presence from my position and I'm very sure every single lady in this room can feel it too.Am i drooling? I think I am." No going over to Mason tonight" Hunter ordered like he was my dad." And why is that? I can't converse with a friend just because of some stupid deal?" I placed one hand on my hip and the other still firmly held my glass cup." I don't know what your definition of friend is, but it's clear that our dic

It's a Tuesday morning and I'm counting one week with my life as my bullies secretary.It feels like a month.The time is a few minutes past nine and I haven't seen a sign of my boss.Well you actually didn't look.True.But we have a fixed meeting with Ying and Shang in less than an hour so I expect him to be around somewhere.I was by the cabinet locating contract booklets and a notepad that would be necessary for the meeting when my door was effortlessly opened.And there's only one person who would step into my office without knocking." You ready for the meeting?" Hunter asks as he takes a seat on my chair that's behind the desk.Still locating the files I need I gave him an answer." As you can see, I'm preparing." Aha! found them.

Monday morning.. Meaning another week is almost gone and Hunter's honeymoon-ing secretary is still living her best life. Edward just took Louisa to school and I'm tidying up after her before heading out to work myself. After I picked up one of Louie's clothes from the floor, the ringing of my cellphone interrupted my activity. I had a little thought in mind that heavens should let it be that Mr Brooks had changed his mind and is retracting me back to Bridgewaters. I approached the phone on the nightstand and checked the caller. After seeing who it was, I literally got angry at myself. Then I answered the call." Meredith I am so, so, so sorry I haven't been keeping in touch. It's just.....there are so many things happening right now and I don't even know how to explain them to anyone "

Hunter's P.O.V.——————— I was just stepping into the office when the caretaker just walked out. She's a lady above forties but looks a lot more aged that that. I should really tell Dad to hire younger people. Almost sitting on my chair when my door was thrown open and slammed shut in seconds. Then I was up on my feet again." Did you know?" Came Iris's seethed words. No good morning or your files are ready? The courage she uses will be the death of her." Iris are you really going mad? I'm just walking into the office and that's the first thing you say to me? It's not like that question has a logical base " My arms flailing around in contempt." Fine, let me rephrase " So no apologi

Hunter's P.O.V.———————" Then I told her how big her nose is!" The voice of Iris's daughter preceeds their presence into the house." I thought you said her nose is tiny?" Iris asked as her form surfaces from the door.She's carrying the little girl in her right hand over the corresponding hip while her other hand is holding a bag of what I believe is groceries." So you get my point then" Louisa states and her current expression almost resembles a smirk.That's new for a kid.Iris stood still by the door and after a moment bursts out laughing.I guess she just understood what the girl said.They still haven't noticed that I'm in the room with them." Goodness me Louie! That's harsh" She managed to sa

I was just standing up from bed when a call comes into my phone.Surprisingly it's Dylan again.I know he said he'll tell me something today but this early?, it's five thirty in the morning.Sweeping my cover to the sides and checking if Louie is still asleep are the last things I do before answering the dial." Isn't it like three AM over there?" My voice groggy and dry.That's the effect of a good sleep." Yeah yeah I know, but I couldn't sleep " Now that has honestly got me worried. The only time Dylan ever had a difficulty with sleeping was when his Dad was diagnosed with diabetes.It took a while to make him understand that diabetes and cancer are two different diseases entirely." What's up? Sleepless nights are not in favors for you " " Remember when I said that I wanted t

Hunter's P.O.V. It's been three whole days since I received the text from Dylan and still no call. Whatever he wants to talk about doesn't seem serious then. I was about to pick up my cell and callIris informing her of my arrival to work when she walked right in without consent." You have to learn to be a little more punctual these days. I can't have my tables overflowing with your duty" She groaned and slammed a pile of papers, documents and leaflets on my desk. I really didn't know how to react. My normal staff wouldn't even dare to walk into my office without permission talk less of dumping my work on my desk without a good morning. I honestly could never get used to this Iris." Good morning to you too" I told her as I gently placed the phone in my hand
