We are almost back to the present, be patient with me 🥰
"Liz, I think I like Carl" Adalyn had said to Talisa one day when they were both laying on Talisa's bed. They were nineteen at that time and Freshers in college while the boys were in their final year."Uhn?" The latter was speechless after hearing what her friend had just said. It was something she never expected, considering how Carlos was and the fact that they both argues all the time."Since how long have you noticed?" "I don't know but I might have start developing feelings for him for over two years now. You remember the first time we came here because of Daphne?" She paused, making sure her friend understood what she was talking about.Talisa nodded "Oh that day you said he came to interfere between you and Thomas?""Exactly, I think the moment he called me his sister, I decided I didn't want to be his sister anymore" She explained making Talisa sigh."We liking our suppose brothers is so sisterly of us, don't you think?" Talisa joked but Adalyn rolled her eyes."Please I'm b
Talisa and Regan looked at one another with smiles then turned to their confused friends. There was a party out of no particular occasion, so, they were wondering what was happening. There was no birthdays, no death days, no anniversaries so what are they celebrating for."Errm... I know you all are curious about why you are here" Talisa cleared her throat before starting. They all nodded in agreement to her word as they were indeed very very curious of what was going on."So what's going on? I don't like the game of guessing so just shoot" Carlos was almost boiling as he looked between both of them. Whatever they were going to share was surely a good news as they both had stupid smiles on and he couldn't wait to find out what that was."We are pregnant" .......there was a pregnant pause after Regan's announcement as they all looked at him blankly."Who is pregnant?" Sebastian managed to ask amidst his dazed state."Liz and I are having a baby" Regan expressed with a wider grin this
Talisa sat with her legs pulled up to her chin, on a chair in the hospital hallway. Her eyes was blank like life had left it. She had aborted her baby. Just like that her baby was gone forever. She had just realized what she had done after she had done it and the repercussion of it. She'll be hated by everyone....Regan would hate her the most. She couldn't even bare to see his face because it would hurt her but then she deserved it.The doctors and nurses had told her to reconsider but she had been so stubborn, she even threatened them enough that they had no choice but to listen to her. Maybe she should have listened...but it's too late.She took out her phone to call her Mom, it was picked at the third ring "Baby?" Her mother called her for the third time before Talisa finally snapped out of her daze. Then her Mom calling her 'Baby' was another blow to her heart.She started crying for the first time since she had committed the murder "Mama, my baby- I aborted ..my...my baby" Tali
Back to the present: Adalyn glanced at Talisa, then at Tiana before directing her gaze back to Talisa."So you are asking me to be the Vice president in place of your husband?" She didn't want to believe what she had heard but that was what had been said to her. Talisa nodded "Would you?" "Of course...no. Why would I give up my freedom to be the VP of some company. Liz, you know how much I treasure my freedom" She glared at her friend at the end of her word. "Of course I know but you are more social so the position would suit you most" Talisa tried convincing her friend."Exactly, Miss Adalyn. Compared to my boss, you have the charms to attract people and so that would be useful as the vice president" Tiana hurriedly added in support of her boss. Adalyn sighed, she was f offered the vice president's position and not just a regular worker, so she needed to think about it "I'll think about it. The deal isn't until the exhibition, right? I still have more than three weeks to think a
Tiana picked the call then put it on speaker so her boss could listen to their conversation."Hello, Miss Accardi""It's lovely to hear from you, Mr Salerno" Tiana replied him."If it's okay with you, can we meet up tomorrow? My Boss had told me to oversee the process of the exhibition and I would like to discuss some things to you in person" Tiana glanced at her boss, asking for permission and Talisa immediately nodded."Okay no problem. Just text me the location and time" "I'll do that" He hung up after that. Tiana put down the phone "Boss, President Keyvan is really effective. He already want to start the process of exhibition? I thought he wouldn't even bother wit us until a week or so" Talisa continued her work "He has always been like that. Wanting control over everything within his jurisdiction. One of the reasons he's the best candidate for the job"Tiana agreed "Then I'll go see him tomorrow in order to find out what we would be needing" ** Talisa was in her office and
Sebastian blinked at her question. Why would she want to know his name? "It's because I'm interested in you. Mine is Tiana Accardi and yours?" She replied frankly with a wide smile and Sebastian was sure he had never been stunned in his life. He was dumbstruck. Did this lady just tell him she was interested in him? Just like that?Tristan chuckles at his friend's expression and replied for him. "He's Sebastian, Sebastian Maltese" Tiana's thought after hearing his name was 'He's Italian' He being Italian was even better.Sebastian glared at his friend then focused on Tiana once more. "Look, Miss Accardi. I understand you took a liking to my looks and everything, bu-" "No, I've heard a lot about you from my boss but seeing the real you made me like you. Is it bad that a girl can like a man she had just met?" She questioned, ignoring the chortle of Alonzo who was behind her."No no, miss, you are very allowed to like him. This guy had been single all his life, he might use some relat
"It's actually a surprise we were able to finish our plans for the exhibition, three days before it. You see that working with PHANTOM has it own perks" Talisa told her assistant after she finished reviewing the process of the exhibition."I agree, it was a good thing you reached out to them" Tiana paused, then continued "Boss, I saw the VP and his mistress sneaking around. I think it's about the exhibition"Talisa also knew the effort Steve had been putting into sabots her plans, but he didn't know the person whose plan was being destroyed was his. Advantages of being reborn includes one thing- you know exactly how things had turned out. And she was using it to her advantage."Let them sneak around to their heart content. Nothing can stop the exhibition tomorrow. I'm definitely going to have it" It was something that would determine the future of her company. The door suddenly burst open and Adalyn, who was dressed in black and pink jumpsuit came in.She frowned at Talisa and Tiana
It was a surprise considering she wasn't expecting him to ever smile at her. The others looked between them and had all had crease brows "What's going on here? What do you mean by it's all thanks to him? Did he help you with this?" Tristan asked and Adalyn was the one who replied."How else do you think this was put in place. Reggie did it all" Everyone were astonished, considering how Regan had been avoiding her for years. "That's quite unexpecte--" Sebastian's word was cut off by the voice of the MC. The show had began. "This event is the celebration of the collaboration between FW, headed by President Talisa Wauter and PHANTOM, headed by President Regan Keyvan. So, before this event starts, we would call the president of FW, Mrs Wauter, to give us her speech" The guests cheered as Talisa hurriedly left her family to go to the stage. She wasn't nervous since there was nothing to be nervous about. She smiled confidently as she climbed up the stage. "Thank you everyone for gran
