I still couldn't believe our contract was out in the open I thought I was in a dream and somebody would just wake me up, I switched my phone on and the contract was trending on twitter and all social media platforms. Ivan was very angry when he came to see me, I've never seen Ivan look at me with such hate and disgust.I was reading through the comment section and I saw so many hateful comments directed to me. They were all blaming me for being so stupid. Some were calling me names like 'whore', 'slut', 'she sold her body for a position in the hotel'What?I was angry at that particular comment, how dare they?, They had no right to judge me I didn't get that position because of Ivan, I got that position because I work hard. I scrolled and some people were defending me, I was thankful that some people understood from my own side.A call came in while I was scrolling through comments, it had no name and I was wondering who was calling me. I picked up"Hello, am I speaking to Miss Adelia

I made up my mind to send in my resignation letter today,I didn't want to be anywhere close to Ivan or anything he owned. I wrote the letter and put it in an envelope,I wanted Jesse to escort me there, I knew if anything bad happens she will right for me."Jesse" I shouted her nameShe came running to my bedroom"It's anything the problem?, Are you alright?" She said "Calm down Jesse, I am fine. I just wanted to ask if you could escort me to the hotel""Why do you want to go there?""I want to send in my resignation letter""Are you sure that's what you really want to do. Remember I told you don't make decisions when you are angry. Think about it first""I've already thought about it and that's what I want to do.

One month laterIt has been a month and three days already since I sent in my resignation letter at the hotel and it still did not make me feel any better. Sometimes I want to cry for loosing Ivan and sometimes I just want to punch him for not believing in me and letting me go so easily. He gave up on us.Jesse and Samantha have really been supportive, they have tried their possible best to keep me happy. I also moved in with Jesse because my rent had expired and I didn't have enough money to renew it.Jesse insisted I get a new job which I have been looking for quite sometime but I did not succeed because nobody agrees to employ me"You need to get a new job as soon as possible". She said"I've tried my best looking for a job but it feels like the word only recognizes me as Ivan's sex piece"."C'mon do not say that, well guess what?, I've found a job for you already""Really?Oh my god""Yeah, although the pay is not much... Please You can manage it"."Thank you so much Jesse, I really

I woke up feeling a lot better today and I promised myself not to let any news or information about Ivan and Veronica make me cry again. I took a shower with a smile on my face, it seemed Ivan had moved on so I should do the same too.I wore my clothes for work, I needed to apologize to Miriam about yesterday's incident. I knew what I had done yesterday was bad, Miriam was a very nice person and I didn't want to take her kindness for granted. I liked the job I was given and Rio was my coach. He was fun to be with, I looked forward to the lessons today.I took a taxi and I arrived by 7:30, I guess I was early because I saw Rio walking to the entrance of the building too"Good morning Rio" I greeted him with a smile on my face"Good morning Adelia, you look better than yesterday. I'm happy you are better""Thanks, I'm looking forward to what you'll be teaching me today""Oh really, expect the best from me. I'm a good teacher" he said smiling"Don't flatter yourself" I said laughing "I'l

IVAN'S POV I left to my house, not the penthouse this time but my home. After I got home, I could not think of anything else but to drink and sleep. That was the perfect routine for me at this point in my life. I just poured myself some whiskey when my phone rang. "It was Camilo" "Oh shit"I had completely forgotten about the hang-out. "What would be the perfect exercise?" I had to come up with something but nothing was coming to my mind. I heard the door alarm. It was Andre and I was sure of it. I just had to hang out with them whether I liked it or not, but it was going to be good. Something to get my mind off the issue on the ground. I opened the door and Andre came in. "You are not dressed yet, buddy" "I just got back. Wait for me let me change into something else" "No man.. you good. Let's go Camilo will be offended if we waste his time. He had some new chick to impress"I just picked up my phone and followed him out. The drive to the club was super lit. I trust Camilo

IVAN'S POVMy sister Natasha spent the next few days with me. She wanted to be sure I was good until she leaves. She insisted on me taking a vacation and she was right. "You should take a break, get your head clear, and then come back and do the right thing""What is the right thing Nat" "Get your woman back, before someone else steals her away from you" The thought of Adelia with another man made my heart squeeze a bit. I still loved her, but I could not bring myself to forget the betrayal. I needed to take a vacation, and leave the city for a while. "I would have loved to come with you but I have other engagements, plus mama wants to see me. You should call her she is worried sick over you" "I will nat." "I will be leaving this afternoons. One of my friends is having her bachelorette and I am one of the maids of honor""That is absolutely wonderful" "I have to be on my way please take care of yourself" "I will do just that...take care of yourself too" "I will.

The Tycoon CHAPTER 43
I was not expecting to see Ivan at this event, he looked so pale. I noticed he kept looking at me all through the event. And I tried my best to avoid his gaze. Even though there were lots of people in this space, I could still feel his presence and so I went out, to get fresh air. And I hoped he would not come after me. Rio overreacted by hitting Ivan, but I could have still defended him but no, I foolishly followed Rio and left him on the floor. Ivan would hate me even more. "Why did you do that??" "I was only saving you from that pervert. And you should be grateful""Grateful for what exactly?" "From saving you from the hands of a rapist"I pulled out of his grip. "That was no rapist. He was not trying to rape me""Didn't look like that to me" "Just let me be Rio" I walked away from him and went to get my stuff. I took an excuse from our boss and left for my house. I took a taxi and went home. When I got home, I lay in my bed and I could not stop thinking of Ivan. He must r
