Never Again 🌷 “There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved.” -George Sand ~•~ •X A V I E R• The elevator wasn't working today as it was under repair and each employee on our floor was sweating hard when I walked past them in the morning. It was not easy to climb thirty sets of stairs and it wasn't certainly easy to do it on a warm day like this. At moments like today, I was grateful for the cardio and stamina building exercises in the gym. Once reaching the office, I saw a leaning figure of Evelyn, breathing heavily in her office. The scene from Saturday night made an appearance in my memory, the way she interacted with Alex and all the lovely things he was talking about her. Alex not only inherited his aunt's eyes, but also some of her habits. I felt a tug in my heart seeing him with Evelyn, after five years of hating her with every fiber of my body, that night I felt a spark as if someone gave life to the bond that we had. But, I cannot fall for her agai

Never Again 🌷 “Waiting is painful. Forgetting is painful. But not knowing which to do is the worst kind of suffering.” -Paulo Coelho ~•~ E V E L Y N• | FIVE YEARS AGO | Getting engaged was one of the most special moments of a person's life. You could see in your partner's eyes exactly how it felt when you're so in love that you want nothing more than to spend the rest of your life with that person. When you get engaged, your lives together become one. And, that was what I saw in Xavier's eyes. Love. A kind of love which wouldn't be reciprocated. With a burdened heart and moistened eyes, I looked at the ring. The diamond, although big, just did not feel like it belonged to me. Throughout the ceremony, my eyes kept wavering at Ethan who had an amused smirk on his face whenever he caught me stealing glances of him. If I could relate to any person in the party, it was him. We have so much to talk about. The kind of man I would want as my finance, with perfect looks, an eloqu

Never Again 🌷 “I look at you and see the rest of my life in front of my eyes.” ~•~ E V E L Y N• Every night my thoughts weighed heavily on my soul, but every morning I'd get up to fight another day, and every night I survived. With no sense of my surroundings, I really couldn't decipher where I was. All I could feel was my numb body being carried by strong arms, especially by the person, who loathed the very existence of mine. The muffled, grave voices did nothing to bring me out of my comatose state. Finally, aware of the claustrophobic atmosphere, I tried bringing myself out of the numbness. I could mentally witness each and every action. Starting from the point where he carried me somewhere, the next thing I registered was my back touching a very comfortable sofa. There were a few things that I could not decipher. Firstly, why did he even care? As far as I remember, Xavier absolutely hated me. It was expected of him to just leave me lying on the cold floor than carry me in
The Betrayed Billionaire •A Facade•
Never Again 🌷 “There is an innocence in admiration: it occurs in one who has not yet realised that they might one day be admired.” ~•~ •X A V I E R• It was all a facade. The innocence, the simplicity, the devotion, a pathetic attempt to hide her true self from coming out. All I wanted was to pull her mask off so desperately. I wanted to show everyone her true colors, hidden beneath her pretence. "Oh come on, you're drinking again?" Chris asked when he entered my office and found me slumped against the wall, right under the window of the office. "Fuck off." I rolled my eyes and attempted to pour another glass of vodka when he snatched it from my hands. "What happened?" He said, crossing his hands in front of his chest and asked with creased brows. "Nothing." I emitted wearily. "Are you aware that we're leaving for California tomorrow?" He asked and when I sent him a glare, well, he glared back. "Did you inform Evelyn?" "Yes, I remember your precious meeting and no, I don't.
The Betrayed Billionaire •Sharing the Suite•
Never Again 🌷 “A person that truly loves you will never let you go, no matter how hard the situation is.” ~•~ E V E L Y N• Today simply wasn't my day, starting from the point where Kat told me about a certain someone known, Chris Walker called me to inform me that we were leaving for a business meeting today and my boss, Xavier Knight did not have the brain to tell me that we were flying to California. At least after that day when he told me about Alexander, when he had seen me breaking down in front of him, he could have informed me. But, no. I guess his hate towards me was far greater than anything. After a long time, we reached California. From the airport, a limousine took everyone to the lavish five star hotel. Maybe Xavier was used to Chris' overspending but I was completely overwhelmed at the sight of the colossal building. The receptionist gave each of us our keys. I was so exhausted after the long flight that I went straight to my room, instead of going to the dining
The Betrayed Billionaire •The Boring Meeting•
Never Again 🌷 “Maybe is forgettable. Only yes and no are memorable. Be bold with your love and say yes to yes, and no to no.” -Jarod Kintz ~•~ •E V E L Y N• "You!" He hissed. "I was just going." I said and poured the coffee beans into the machine. He didn't say anything in return and went past me towards the fridge. Pulling out a carton of juice, pouring a glass for himself. "Do you need coffee?" I asked to which he just shook his head in return. "It's fine. I can make-" "Stop your pretence, Miss Williams." He suddenly snorted, putting the carton back in the fridge. "There's nobody else in here." Tears gathered at the back of my eyes, and I was sure that I ain't going to spill them in front of him. Would he ever be able to look past that mistake? Would he ever be able to forgive me? Before I could say anything in return, he stomped in his room and I just stood there, watching his retreating figure contort in a blurry mess because of the tears in my eyes. ~•~ I have no ide
The Betrayed Billionaire •Old Acquaintances•
Trying to ponder over what Xavier had been rambling on the entire time. I felt totally baffled and knots formed in my stomach as several pairs of curious eyes stared at me, some of them encouraging me while others had a stern look challenging me to even complete the first line.New clothing line, elite groups, commoners, profit.Perfect.I formed a mental note of the key points Xavier accentuated throughout his speech."So everybody, in the golden era, clothes were considered as something to cover ourselves," I initiated, clasping both of my hands together. "But now the time has changed and so do our requirements. Clothing is considered a fashion statement. Every day the trend keeps changing so does the daily clothes we come across.""The point is, most of the entrepreneurs here are eager to define themselves, to create their own image and be a trendsetter. Well, that's the dream

Never Again 🌷 “See how she leans her cheek upon her hand. O, that I was a glove upon that hand. That I might touch that cheek!" -William Shakespeare; Romeo and Juliet ~•~ X A V I E R• "How do I look?" Standing in front of my laptop, I asked Alex, whose eyes assessed body as much as the screen allowed and at last, he gave his approval by giving me a thumbs up. Winking at him, I turned around to set my hair and then sprayed a little amount of my favourite rose-scented cologne. Wait, something wasn't right with him, no smile, no tantrums and no demands. That was weird as Alex always loved dressing me. "What happened buddy?" I asked and sat down on the bed, pulling the laptop over my lap. "I miss you, Daddy." He said, giving me his best sad look. "I'll be back in a day or two. Until then you can turn the house upside down." I said to which he finally smiled. "Promise?" Chuckling, I said, "Promise." Later adding, "And will you be good to grandma and grandpa until I get back
