Themis' POV"Matthew, you should wake up now. Matthew."I slowly opened my eyes and saw Winter's face staring back at me while still wearing black lingerie. Her hair was falling down on her shoulders.Winter?Wait, what is she doing here in my room early in the morning?I immediately sat up on my bed and had to blink a few times before realizing I was seeing Winter in front of me. "W-Winter? W-What are you doing here?""I'm just here to wake you up. You still have work today, right?" she said in a sweet voice."H-Huh?"Winter smiled, then she run her fingers through my hair to fix it. I almost pushed her away."W-What are you doing?""I was just fixing your hair. Come on, you should already take a shower now, then let's have our breakfast," she said as she stood up without removing the smile on her face.She walked toward the door and was about to go outside, but then I called her."W-Winter.""Huh? What is it? Do you need something?""What's happening? I mean, is there a problem?"Sh
Winter's POVI really couldn't stop getting pissed off whenever I get too close to Matthew. And the whole time I was pretending to like him, I swear I want to vomit already.I took a deep breath when I finally reached the company building. I promised to fetch him. That is why I'm here right now. Ugh, if it's not for our family, I won't do this horrible thing.When I opened my car door, I immediately saw Matthew walking toward me. I waved my hand and faked a smile. "Here, Matthew!""You really went here to pick me up?" "Of course, I promise to do so. Let's go."We both hopped inside my car and I started driving already. "Uh, Winter.""Yes?""Can we stop by the coffee shop before going home? I just want to buy some cheesecake."I nodded my head. "Sure. Uh, why do you have to buy it? I mean, is that what you're going to eat for dinner?""Oh, no. I just know someone who really likes cheesecakes.""O-Oh."I wonder who that someone is. Maybe that's the young lady the private investigator
Themis' POVI almost jumped from where I was standing when I saw Winter standing by the doorway of my room early in the morning with that smile on her face once again. She keeps on doing weird things these past few weeks and I don't really know why."H-Hey there, Winter.""Good morning, Matthew. So, I heard you don't have work today, right?"I slowly nodded my head. "Yeah, that's right. Why?""I actually want to ask you if you want to go somewhere with me today.""Sure. Do you have to go somewhere? I can drive you there."She then shook her head while looking at me. "No, I want the two of us to have a date. Like a real husband and wife.""H-Huh?!""Go on. Just take a shower and I'll wait for you downstairs." she said, then she already walked away.I heaved a sigh as I watched her walking down the stairs.When will she actually get tired of doing this?Winter's POVI stood up as soon as I saw Matthew. He was wearing a grey turtleneck with the sleeves rolled up and he paired that up wit
Winter's POVI immediately pushed Matthew away when I realized how close we were to each other. "I-I'm sorry." he apologized."Fine. If you don't want me to see what's behind that eye patch, I won't force you anymore." I said, then I sat back on the bench.We were just staring at the view until Matthew placed a paper bag in the space between the two of us. Later on, he took out sandwiches and drinks. "Here, let's eat. I bought it a while ago while you were sleeping inside the car. I didn't bother to wake you up because you were sleeping deeply.""Really?""Yes. Here," he said as he handed me the bottle of orange juice to me."Thanks."We continue eating our sandwiches until nothing is left. "I thought you were on a diet?" Matthew said again while smiling teasingly at me.I looked at him with widened eyes. "I'm just hungry, okay? Don't you dare judge me just because I ate all of it. You are the one who bought it in the first place, anyway.""I know that. I'm just amazed at how big yo
Winter's POV"From now on, we will be best friends forever," Phoebe said with a smile on her face.I smiled back as I reached my hand to her. "Best friends forever."And that was the very first best friend I made. I had no friends or best friends before. Simply because they hate me in the end. Once I had one friend, which I almost considered my best friend, but then she felt jealous when her boyfriend admitted he has a crush on me. I never liked her boyfriend, nor did I have any plan of taking him away from her. But she got so mad at me, and later on, she considered me as someone she can never forgive.That girl started gossiping about me being a flirty bitch, and all the people around me believed that. No one wanted to be my friend because they always think I might take their boyfriend away from them.But Phoebe was different. She accepted me and didn't listen to all the people around us. She was a cute girl in bob hair with full bangs. I still remember how the dimples in the corners
Winter's POV"Hey there, Winter!"I rolled my eyes as soon as I saw Ian arrive at the filming location with a huge smile on his face."Great, you just ruined my day," I said."You're harsh.""Oh, come on. Don't pretend as if you like seeing me here."He then sat next to me. "Sure, I don't enjoy seeing you here, either. But what else can I do? I don't have any choice.""Can you just not talk to me anymore? You're making my day even worse.""You're the one who keeps on talking to me, anyway."I didn't speak anymore. Because, for sure, he would only keep on pissing me off if I do. This bastard keeps on insulting me every single day and for sure, there would really be a time when I wouldn't be able to take it anymore and I would finally smack his head."Here, have some coffee," he said, then handed me a cup of coffee.I just glanced at the coffee he was holding and shook my head. "I'm sorry, but I don't drink cheap coffee. Especially if it was given by a person I despise. I don't really k
Themis' POVI immediately warded off my room as soon as my phone rang. Good thing I found an excuse to leave her there. I really got surprised when she started acting strangely. I don't think she was drunk, but why did she do that? She even tried to kiss me, what the hell?!I kept on shaking my head as I sat down on the chair in the garden of the mansion. This is really bad. I think Winter is doing everything just to dismantle my real identity. She's still thinking she could just seduce me in order for her to know everything about me. And if I keep on avoiding her, I'm sure that would only make her even more eager to do everything just to succeed.But what should I do? I need her to keep hating me. Did I make a mistake in starting my plan?"My granddaughter is trying to seduce you? Oh, God.""That's right, Mr. Wesley. I think she really is doing everything just to know the truth."Mr. Wesley suddenly laughed, making me confused. "I told you, that grandchild of mine is just too smart
Winter's POVIf Matthew thinks I would just let him reject me like that, then he's wrong. Because I am Winter Wesley, the greatest seducer of all time.I got off my bed and took a shower before proceeding to his room while wearing my bathrobe. I asked for the spare key to his room from the maids, so even if he locked it, I could still step inside. "Hello there, sleepyhead! It's time to wake up now!" I cooed as I sat on the edge of his bed.Slowly, I moved closer to him, who was covering himself with a blanket. Then I lay down beside him and wrapped my arms around his waist—only for me to feel something soft underneath the blanket. And as I lifted the blanket, I realized Matthew wasn't lying there."Matthew?" I stood up and roamed my eyes around his room.So what now? Did he leave already because he didn't want to see me?"That stupid man. Is that how much he hates me doing that?! He even locked his door for me not go in there. That jerk!""Good morning, Winter. Do you need something?
