they walked into the house, Shawty observed the interior. It was a modest house, but very cozy and neat. The scent of freshly baked bread wafted through the air and she felt a warm feeling in her heart. The woman who opened the door was dressed in a floral apron and had a warm, motherly presence about her."Fred, you are here? Why are you ringing the bell? This is your house too" The woman said enthusiastically with a gentle smile.Frederick's expression was still cold.However, she couldn't help but feel uneasy as she observed the exchange between Frederick and the woman. Even though she was welcoming and friendly, Frederick's expression was still cold and distant. It was clear that there was some unresolved tension between them.Shawty followed Frederick into the house, He held her hand tightly. She noticed a young man sitting in the living room, engrossed in his newspaper. He had a striking resemblance to Frederick, and she guessed that he was
"You misunderstood me," Fredrick said calmly. "I did not say I agreed for him to be the vice president. You misinterpreted my words." they all looked at Fredrick, confusion and shock were evident on their faces. He had just dropped a bombshell on them, and they were struggling to comprehend the gravity of the situation. His father was the most stunned of them all, his mouth gaping open in shock. Cassandra was also in shock. "But you said okay just now, right? Did I hear it wrongly?" she asked Robert, hoping for an explanation.Robert, however, was confident. "Brother, you agreed just now," he said firmly.Fredrick shook his head. "I was not through with my words. You guys celebrated too soon. Even if I really agreed and I decided not to agree anymore, what can you do about it? Do you have any evidence? You can take me to court, so I will see who will win," he said with a cold smile.Robert's face turned pale. He knew that Fre
As the first rays of sunlight crept through the curtains and danced on her face, she stirred in her sleep. Slowly, she opened her eyes and yawned, feeling refreshed and renewed from a good night's sleep. She felt the warmth of the sun on her skin, and a gentle breeze blew through the open window, carrying with it the sweet scent of blooming flowers. With a stretch of her arms and legs, she got out of bed, feeling the energy coursing through her veins. She walked towards the bathroom, relishing the cool tiles on her bare feet, and turned on the shower. The sound of water cascading down the walls was a symphony to her ears as she stepped under the soothing streams, feeling every drop wash away the remnants of sleep. As she stepped out of the shower, she felt a sense of calm wash over her. Wrapped in a fluffy towel, she walked out into the bedroom, feeling the soft carpet tickle her toes. She opened her wardrobe, letting the scent of freshly laundered clothes fill h
She sighed and accept her situation silently. She walked into the coffee room. She could remember when she was here at her first time here.She finished making the coffee and walked out of the coffee. She suddenly collided with someone making the coffee spill in the person's body. She tried to avoid the person but it was too late.Shawty was stunned."Are you alright?" She asked immediately she saw this.It was a woman, probably one of a female employee here."Do I look like I am alright?" The woman snapped angrily."I am so sorry, I did not ... " "Can your sorry do anything? Can it make my clothes as neat and dry like it was before?" The lady asked with an angry expression.Shawty looked at the woman, she could see the frustration and irritation on her face. The coffee had spilled all over her clothes, leaving a big brown stain. Shawty felt terrible and embarrassed, wishing that she could undo what had ju
“How about you compensate me by marrying him instead ?” He asked with a wink .“Hmph no way!” She replied with a snort and added “You did not lose anything, why should I compensate you?” She asked “Of course I am about to lose something “ he replied as a matter of factly “What?” She smirkThe woman was still standing there watching them interact naturally , she looked at Shawty with a jealous look. She blamed Shawty for flirting with her boss in front of her.Fredrick suddenly glanced at her, she quickly masked her vicious eyes and changed it to a pitiful look. “ Boss … “ she called slowly “You are fired “ Fredrick interrupted her expressionlessly“What???” The woman yelled in surpriseShawty was also surprised that Fredrick decided to fire her but she did not say anything . “I won’t repeat my words” Fredrick says The woman thought she did not hear him properly, she was one
Shawty walked away. Her figure looked lonely. Fredrick felt his heart ache for her; he hated how sad she looked. She stood on the balcony, looking at the distance in a daze; she was not looking at anything in particular. Frederick walked towards her and stood quietly beside her to keep her company. They stood there for a few hours; no one said anything, but it was peaceful. "Maybe she is really right." Shawty finally spoke up after a few hours of silence. "I am bad luck; I guess it was my bad luck that made my parents die," she said, feeling melancholy. "Shhh, you are not bad luck; you don’t have to care about that nonsense that woman said," Frederick said. Shawty chuckled. "I know you are just trying to console me," she said. "It is a fact! I keep getting important contracts since you followed me back; I never regret it," he told her."Really? You really signed important contracts after I arriv
Shawty nodded obediently and asked, "Can you bring me to my parents graveyard?" She requested. Fredrick wanted to reject her request because it would be cold and chilly outside and she might catch a cold. "Please…" She begged in a low tone. She looked a little pitiful with her puffy eyes. "But..." Fredrick hesitated. Her eyes fell, and she looked disappointed when she saw him hesitating. "You can’t...?" She asked sadly. Fredrick took a deep breath and sighed helplessly, "Fine, but you must listen to whatever I say, okay?" He said it with a hint of warning. Shawty nodded without hesitation. She does not know why, but she feels that she could trust him. Her heart was filled with warmth right now. Whenever she is sad, there is no one beside her to console her. In the company where she works, they only see her as a money tree because of how perfectly she always completes the mission. After Leonard, who is the boss of
Was what Fredrick said really correct?She thought doubtfully. Are parents truly happy that they are together? If that is really true, then her mission would have to be dropped, or it would surely make her parents unhappy with her. She shook her head. No, she cannot let her parents be unhappy with her. She had to drop it."You can also see that your parents love you. This ray of light means they have forgiven you, okay? So don’t make them unhappy again." Fredrick’s voice broke her thoughts. Shawty snapped out of her thoughts and nodded. She smiled at him and thanked him sincerely, "Thank you." "It is fine." He caressed her cheek. His eyes fell on her soft, cherry-pink lips. He could not help but lean closer to her, but he immediately stopped himself. What are you doing? She is sad; don’t go overboard. He scolded himself. Shawty blinked her eyes at him and looked at h
