They were both gasping for breath when they finished, Amber was lying next to Stephen with her head resting on Stephen's arm. Stephen looked at Amber and then smiled."I'm sorry..." he said.Amber smiled, as if what happened to her was okay. That's when she felt pain and stiffness in her body. "It's okay, my body just hurts..." Amber said softly, as if she was ashamed to tell Stephen that.Stephen turned to face Amber, so their position now is Amber is also facing him while her head is still resting on Stephen's arm; they are hugging each other."I'm sorry for doing that. Don't worry, I'll make it up with your body.""What?" Amber asked in surprise, she didn't understand what Stephen said."I mean, we will go to the massage so that your body won't hurt anymore—"Amber immediately got up and looked at Stephen with her mouth agape. "It is not needed. Maybe the pain will disappear soon," she immediately told Stephen.Stephen just nodded and agreed, he let Amber lay next to him again. “Wh
When Amber woke up she wondered why he was in her bed. She also immediately remembered that they were from a private resort. She also turned to her side thinking that Stephen was next to her but she seemed disappointed when she didn't see Stephen next to her.“Oh, God. Really? Why are you disappointed?” she asked herself. She shook her head to get those out of her mind.She left her bed and when she saw that she hadn't changed her dress yet, she immediately entered the bathroom to take a shower and put on her house clothes. When she left the room, she found her family watching the show. They immediately turned around when they felt Amber's presence because her door sounded after closing.“Mom, Dad…where is Stephen?” that's what she immediately asked when facing the family."Go home, you were in a hurry when you were brought here. He didn't wake you up because you were tired," answered Anne.Amber nodded and went straight to the kitchen. "There is food there, I cooked for you. We could
His grandfather glared at him, not expecting that Stephen would say that. Because the chairman fully thought that Stephen would do what he wanted. Stephen is the only one he sees as having the potential to take his place."You did not consider my choice? You are the one I want to take over my position as a chairman, Stephen. Why are you contradicting me?” his grandfather asked seriously.Stephen closed his eyes tightly for a moment. "If you want me, why do we have to compete for the position of chairman? Why don't you just give it to me without anything in return?” Stephen asked seriously.The Chairman smirked as if he was laughing at Stephen's question. "Well, I just want to see that you all care about the position I will give to all of you in the company and how persistent you are to be part of my legacy..." Chairman said at length.Stephen understood that point but he just couldn't understand why his grandfather was torturing others, especially his cousins who had no intention of
A few minutes of silence fell between Stephen and Amber, even Amber's eyes couldn't move too close because of the shock of what Stephen said. It seems like a strong wind came out."W-what did you just say?" she asked weakly but stammered, she just forced herself to speak because even Stephen didn't speak again. He just watched Amber, waiting for what the answer would be.Who wouldn't be surprised when he suddenly said that word? Ever since he drove to Amber's condo, that's what he's been thinking. For him, he doesn't care if he has a competitor in getting the position as chairman of his family's company, but he also saw how his parents and himself worked hard to get the CEO position. Like his father Jonas, he will not allow his hard work to go to waste.Leandra was really going to get them married because that was the family tradition but he also really loved Leandra that time so he agreed. But now, it's another challenge and his only goal is to find someone to marry so he doesn't lo
Amber returned to the condo with a smile on her face. One of his sisters approached. Andrew's next."Do you like him?"Amber was surprised by her sister's sudden question, so she stood up straight and looked at her sister, her brow furrowed."What are you talking about, Jennie?" Amber asked and then walked to her room. Jennie followed him."I can see it. It's obvious that you like him and so does he, it's obvious that he likes you, Amber." Jennie said with a smile.Amber frowned even more. She knew what Jennie said was true but she didn't know that Stephen and her were so obvious for her sister Jennie to notice right away."You're talking nonsense, Jennie. Go to bed early because I will come with you two, you and Allen and early tomorrow to enroll you,” said Amber and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower.Jennie just laughed because of Amber's reaction. It was also obvious to her that Amber avoided such a matter. Jennie left Amber's room and went straight to her sister’s roo
Amber couldn't speak immediately because of Stephen's answer. She didn't believe that was Stephen's reason because she already knew why. For Amber's, Stephen doesn't need to do that thing especially if it's Amber's family.Stephen ended up paying that Amber couldn't move from her position to stop Stephen, it seemed that she was just a statue even though she wanted to stop Stephen. While Amber's two siblings Jennie and Allen were amazed at what Stephen did, they didn't expect that to happen. They looked at each other when Amber suddenly pulled Stephen away from the accounting window."We can study in a good school, Allen..." Jennie said happily to her youngest brother, Allen.Allen was the same, he felt happy because it was the first time they could study in a beautiful and expensive school. It was their dream but because they were poor, lacked money and Andrew happened to get sick, they were unable to attend even with a scholarship because they still lacked the daily expenses of going
When Amber and Stephen arrived at the office, they stopped when they saw Vivian outside Stephen's office, sitting in the waiting area. Stephen frowned when he saw Vivian."Vivian, what are you doing here?" asked Stephen. Amber was behind him.Vivian first looked at Amber behind Stephen, "can I talk to him alone?" she asked Amber with a smile.Amber seemed surprised by what she said but also realized that she should leave. "I'm sorry," Amber said and then went straight to her cubicle.Stephen looked at Amber for a moment and then turned back to Vivian. "What do you want this time, Vivian?" Stephen asked and then he entered his office.He just left the door open for Vivian to enter. Vivian immediately followed him. Stephen went straight to his swivel chair while Vivian stood in front of him. Stephen just looked at her seriously."I came here so that we can really go ahead with the plan to get married. I will not accept that you will say no again because your parents came to me, they tol
A few days have passed since Vivian and Stephen talked in Stephen's office; Amber and Vivian met. Because of the incident, Vivian also started to disturb Amber's life. One day, Amber had a day off and Stephen was also on a business trip, so he and Amber were not together. Amber thought of taking her family for a trip to the City. In a famous mall, in an expensive restaurant, she brought his family. Vivian also saw him there.“Oh, is it also Stephen who spent the money for them?”Amber's family turned to Vivian, wondering what Vivian means. Amber closed her eyes tightly for a moment before she stood up. She said goodbye to her family first to talk to Vivian, and she thought that Vivian would follow her, but Vivian didn’t, she remained standing in front of Amber’s family."Did you even know how much of a gold digger Amber is? Your daughter?” Vivian asked Amber's family with a laugh.Amber's jaw tightened because of what Vivian did, her fists were also clenched. Amber's family's looks sh
