"Just leave me the hell alone! Stay out of my way and stay out of my business!" Sorin yelled at me and I closed my eyes.I still had my eyes closed when I noticed he wasn't talking anymore. The loud sound of the door after he jammed it made me shake and open my eyes, only for me to realize that he had walked out of the room.I fell to the ground in a crouching position, staring blankly at the dismantled alarm clock. I wanted to leave the room but I was scared. I didn't want to run into Sorin because it would definitely not be a fun scene. So, I thought avoiding him would be the solution. I soon began to soliloquize."When he wakes up, I'll remain in bed. When he dresses up, I'll not look at him. When he leaves the room, I'll remain in the room, but when he comes back into the room, I'll leave the room. That way, I'll be able to avoid getting into trouble with him."Another round of thoughts soon filled my head."But I'm married to him!" I said out loud, sitting on the ground and kicki
Anne was immediately stuck to her chair when she saw the lady who was approaching her and was walking with so much confidence. She was dumbfounded as she looked at her.The woman was tall and elegant, with long, flowing hair that cascaded down her back in waves of deep brown. Her eyes glittered like emeralds, and her smile could light up the entire room. She wore a black gown, with silver heels which she walked graciously in. Her fingernails and toenails were neatly painted and polished with white nail polish and this complemented her whole dress.As the woman approached her, Anne couldn't help but feel a pang of nervousness. She had never seen someone so effortlessly beautiful and confident before."Anne Jones, right?" She asked, confirming that she was talking to the right person."Yes, ma'am," Anne responded.Anne nervously fidgeted with her resume as she spoke to the gorgeous lady. She couldn't help but feel a bit intimidated by everything and everyone around her. The environment
Rose had gone to treat her wounds earlier but instead of going back to the house, she decided to stay until Sonia was awake before going back. She met Daisy in the waiting room and greeted her. Rose began to pace back and forth in the hospital waiting room, her heart pounding in her chest. She had never felt so helpless before. She wished she had been able to save Sonia from the attack of the intruder but both of them didn't see it coming and we're both helpless. They could never have imagined that the young man could have had a hidden weapon with him."You should go home to rest if you can't stop pacing. You are disturbing me with all that back and forth, I'm trying to think here." Daisy said to her, staring at the wall with her leg crossed over the other. She couldn't believe that someone had managed to get past her security and harm someone in her house."I'm fine, ma'am, I can rest later, but I would like to wait till Miss Sonia is awake." Rose replied."Okay, no problem then." D
"How is this possible? How can this be happening at this moment? This is someone I have not seen in so many years. How can he be here right now?" Anne began to ask herself, while also looking confused."Maybe it's just a mistake, maybe he is just related to the CEO. Yes! That's what it will possibly be." Anne thought to herself, staring blankly at the wall beside her.Anne found it hard to believe the young man before her in the CEO's seat was that same Jake she knew long before that day. She found it hard to believe that he could be the CEO of ZAS HOLDINGS. She just could not imagine.Bringing her out of her misery, Jake cleared his throat loudly, calling her attention to him immediately. She hastily composed herself.Finally getting her attention, they began to speak in hushed tones, trying to deliberate, leaving Anne confused.She could have sworn right there and then that she would never get the job because all hopes of getting that job flew out the window the moment Jake walked i
"Is anything the matter, sir?" Anne asked him, after turning to look at him.He paused for a while before he responded to her."Not exactly. You just need to sign some documents before you leave. You can't just leave like that when you are going to start work tomorrow morning.""What documents?" Anne asked."Just some documents of agreement. Also, you need to fill in your payment information in one of those documents." He explained further.Anne looked confused as he spoke because she was not sure what he meant by all that he was saying. She had never gotten such an official job before in her entire life, so she didn't know what he meant."I'm sorry, Sir. What do you mean by my payment information?" Anne asked, confused.The man looked at her speechless. He turned to the others and they were speechless as well."Have you ever had a job before?" He asked her."I have." She responded."So, how come you do not know what I mean by your payment information?" He inquired."Honestly, I have
I had taken my bath immediately after my discussion with Kelvin in the morning. I began to look for suitable clothes to wear, but to my frustration, I could not find any."Gosh! What do I wear now?" I asked myself as I stumped my feet on the ground in frustration. It was now almost the time I and Kelvin agreed upon to leave the house.I quickly picked up my jean trousers and t-shirt and put them on. I also had my long hair tied into a neat bun and wore one of my few sneakers. I accessed myself in the mirror and I was satisfied with my look."I guess this should do." I had said out loud as I looked at myself in the mirror once again.Although my parents were a bit rich, their wealth was nothing compared to the Zaveris- it could not come anywhere close. They wore good clothes but they didn't care much about what I wore or even if I had anything to wear. All they were after was themselves and themselves alone, which was the reason why i never went with them to important functions and ce
Anne was on her knees, her hands were tied to her back with a zip tie, and she was blindfolded, so she had no idea of who kidnapped her or who was yelling at her."Please, if I offended you in any way. I'm so sorry, please forgive me." She pleaded."I said keep your damn mouth shut!" The voice shouted, throwing something against the wall, which made a loud clanging sound.Anne immediately kept quiet and stopped talking, but she kept sobbing quietly."How can this happen to me on the day I got my dream job." She thought to herself as she wept."I thought my suffering was finally going to come to an end. Oh no! Who did I offend?" She thought again.She was still thinking about what would become of her body if she was killed right there, when she heard some footsteps approaching from afar."Where is she?" A familiar voice asked."Right there, sir." Another voice, which seemed like his minion, responded."Has she said anything about the agreement?" The familiar voice asked."No sir. I hav
As we stepped out of the car and began to walk into the house, the other guards saw us, and they immediately rushed to help out with everything Kelvin was helping me carry. "Welcome ma'am." They all said in unison."Thank you very much." I responded, with a smile.They led the way and I followed closely behind, but as we were about to step into the living room, I spotted Sorin in the living room and my heart skipped a beat.He stood with his back turned to us, his broad shoulders standing out and well-carved out in his clothes. He wore a knitted woolen peach round neck long-sleeves and black free trousers."Good day, sir. " They all chorused and bowed their heads.He suddenly turned around and began to stare at me. As he kept staring at me, the smile that was previously on my face immediately disappeared. "Good day." He responded to their greetings and they all left, except Kelvin who waited behind."Hi." I awkwardly uttered.He didn't respond and I didn't bother to say anything els
