" That's because everything you make smells really good." Mira countered. He was a CEO but his cooking skills were better and even in comparison to the top chefs in the country." I learnt how to cook specially for you." Tim confessed. He had decided to learn cooking skills for her sake.Hearing his words,a tinge of happiness and guilt flashed in her eyes. She was happy that he learnt to cook just for her and guilty that in her past life, she never appreciated him for his efforts and was busy chasing after that scum of a man.Without thinking much,Mira walked to him and hugged him from behind." Tim,in this life, allow me to make you happy and make up for the pain I brought to you in my past life." She murmured emotionally, almost shedding tears just thinking about how cruelly he died saving her despite rejecting him in her past life.Tim caught the abnormality of her words but decided not to ask her about it. He had noticed that something had changed in Mira but he was afraid of conf
Mira left the company and drove straight to the Jones villa. She was there to retrieve afew of her mother's things that She had saved when her father burnt everything that belonged to her mother. Today,the house was supposed to be claimed after she auctioned it.When she stepped to the living room, she was met by a flying cup. She dodged carefully." Is this your new way of greeting your daughter?" Mira asked with mockery." I don't have an insolent daughter like you." Mr Jones countered. " That makes the two of us,I don't have a father like you." Mira said composed. If it was in her past life, those words would send her to a crying fit but not anymore. She remembered the same thing happening in her past life. To make her father happy, she transfered ten percent of her shares to him. Everytime he wanted something from her,he would treat her badly and like the fool she was, she would use what her mother left behind to buy her father's affection.A Father is supposed to love his childr
" Taking over is the most crucial step and.... wait.. did you say merging?" Tim asked, mouth wide open and eyes bulging out." Yeah,I am hoping my boyfriend will think about taking the Jones company under his wings. I would love to merge the company with your empire." Mira confirmed. To say that Tim was surprised would be quite an understatement,he was perplexed. With how messy the society was,was there someone still willing to merge something valuable with others." Ain't you afraid I will steal your company and throw you away?" He asked, mused.It wasn't something that was new in town. Just the previous month,the entertainment and business news reported of a second generation heiress who was kicked under the bus by her boyfriend. She had actually named her boyfriend as the co-owner of every asset she had, including her family business. At the end of the day,the rumoured boyfriend send her to prison after forging her signature and took over the company.In this corrupted world, would
Her phone vibrated in her pockets so she paused to see who was calling. it was a private number. She stared at the ringing phone warily before deciding to pick the call and that's when she heard. " You really forgot about me after you started following your sister huh?" Mira heard a voice that made her eyes pool with tears.The voice belonged to her once best friend. They had grown together, played together, Made a sisterhood promise together and yet... she threw all that away in her past life when her sister accused her for being a two faced bitch and talking ill of Mira behind her back. Being the stupid love sick puppy she was, Mira believed her evil step sister and cut ties with her friend." Vera... I..." Even words refused to form in her mouth. she was remorseful." it's okay... you chose your sister anyway and I understand... I Just wanted to hear from you." Vera replied with every intention of keeping the call short. She was the one who called Even after the two went apart for
" it's good to hear that. As your good friend and elder sister,I ought to remind you to know your Worth. men should Chase after you, not the other way round." Yolanda added." Anyway, that's not why I called. Tell me girl,do you have time to hang out with an elephant like me? I feel bored to death." at the end, she didn't forget to state the reason she called in the First place." Okay, that's no problem,I can create time tomorrow but can I bring my Friend along?" Mira asked. She wanted to introduce Vera to Yolanda. They were very much common and Mira was sure they would hit it off quickly." No problem. It sounds like a better idea to get acquainted to your friends." Yolanda replied. she was happy Mira considered her close enough to let her in her social circle." Okay, let's meet tomorrow at the cafe, two blocks from the Phoenix Mall." Yolanda instructed." wait.. are you driving there yourself?" Mira couldn't help but worry about the pregnant woman who didn't seem to understand the
" Oh my! look at that beauty, what is she doing here?" one customer said." she's so beautiful. look at her dressing, although simple, she looks so hot." another lady said." What an angelic face. I wish I could be as beautiful as her." The three girls chatted happily not minding to lower their words and obviously, Mira heard them. She flashed them a sweet smile making the girls squeel happily." Wow look at that smile. if I was a man,I would definitely go after her." I've girl chirped in." I can bend just for her." another one said giggling happily.Mira felt a chill down her spine upon hearing their discussion. She was straight, okay? And she wasn't interested in having a lady for a boyfriend.She took a seat and a waiter walked to her side." good afternoon,what can I get you?" Despite this being a local Street Cafe,the service girl was very respectful and professional." Am here to pick up Vera Gray. is her shift over?" Mira replied respectfully. They say that respect was a two w
After placing Mira on a chair,Vera rushed to bring ice cubes which she gently applied on Mira's ankle while complaining," You really don't know how to be careful. How did you survive these years without me?" " It was hard without you." Mira honestly replied, letting the tears of grievance she had never shed since she came back flow without restraint. She leaned on Vera's shoulder as she sobbed pitifully. Crying the pain of being stupid enough to listen to rumours and believe to fabricated evidence. She cried for the harmonious relationship she ruined between them. She cried for the familial love the Gray family had shown her and which she had discarded without a second thought m She sobbed for the years lost. All her pent up emotions surfaced that moment Vera reminded her how dependent of her she had been.The things that they did together,the promises they made together,the dreams they had together... all that had been plurged into an abyss and Al left was regrets. Alas,that was the
Engrossed in admiring the simple yet elegant interior of the house, Mira didn't realize when the two ladies finally finished their baking section and emerged to the sitting room where she sat.Stella was taken aback seeing the person seated comfortably on the sofa. She blinked her eyes to make sure she wasn't seeing things or her eyes weren't playing tricks to her the older she got.But even after blinking severally,the silhouette of the lady seated there did not change proving to her that she was really there... in her house." Mira?" She called, still unsure. She felt a myriad of emotions swirl in her and before she could stop herself, she was already running to the Lady and embracing her in a tight motherly hug.Mira who was caught unprepared was pushed back by the tight hug. If she wasn't seated on the sofa, she would sure she sprawling on the ground from the intensity of the embrace. The warmth of the hug brought countless memories from years back. She remembered how Vera would
