A black Bugatti slowly ground to a halt outside the yard. The area was remote with only a few shabby houses in sight. A large car was decidedly out of place in such an area. The man in the backseat put aside a stack of documents he had been Perusing. Then changed from his svelte, tailored suit to an old jacket. James twisted around to look at his boss who has been going through so much trouble travelling back-and-forth every day, “ you used to call me only once or twice a year Boss,” James pointed out, “ you have villas all over the city, you can just move into one of them with your wife. Why do you bother going to this dump every single day?”Darren threw him a cold gaze “you’ve been awfully talkative lately. Do you have so much time in your hands? If you have nothing better to do, you might as well clean up and tend to these other villas of mine.” James immediately shut up and looked away. Darren got out of the car, once he was out of sight, James slapped his own cheek mutt
Mia attended the second round of the interview on the date the Preston group had assign and successfully passed it. At the end of the month she received an offer. The Preston group had two separate buildings in the city. The design department was on the seventh floor of the first building. It’s housed a talented team of designers who possessed exceptional skills, and experience. All the designers had graduated from well, talented schools with flying colors. Mia believed the Preston group would be the ideal place to start her career. Before going upstairs, Mia went to a convience store near the company to buy coffee. “Miss your change is on the floor.” Someone nudged her shoulders from behind. “Oh, thank you.” Mia turned around, took the money from the man, and put it into her bag. “You’re welcome” The voice sounded familiar. Mia looked up and met the man’s gaze, her eyes widened in astonishment “David?” “What a confidence!” The man looked equally suprised. He had a brown ha
“Good morning, Mr Micheal.” Mia lowered her head and greated him respectfully. She didn’t expect to meet Micheal here again so soon. “Did you encounter any problem after that?” Micheal pressed the button to the tenth floor and smiled at Mia. Mia didn’t expect him to ask about it. After all, they had met only once. The deputy CEO of the Preston Group seemed to care about their employees. “No. Everything is fine, Thank you for asking sir.” Micheal glanced at Mia who was standing beside Mia. “Who is this young man?” “Mr Smith, my name is David Gregory, if she encounters any problem. I will be of help to her. Please rest assured,” David eyes Beem with concern as he looks at Mia with concern. Micheal was a smart man, he could see everything clearly, the smile on his face dropped in an instant. Just then, the elevator door opened. Micheal walked out with a meaningful look on his face. Mia and David seemed to be close. Micheal felt someone is going to be unhappy after knowing this
Sensing the suspicion in his tone, Mia clutched the wallet tightly, she had forgotten that she was playing the role of a spoiled Eva now. “I used to spend whatever money I had, I don’t have savings anymore. I’ve been at odds with my parents, so I donot want to ask them for money. I’m broke now.” She lied, hiding her nervousness. Her eyelashes fluttered as she averted her eyes. Darren stroked the coins in his hands. He remembered seeing Mia quarrelling with her parents when he went to the Thompson family house. They didn’t seem to get along with each other. “ what happened? Why are you nervous? Why do you freak out everytime I mention your family?” Darren ruffled Mia’s hair gently. “ how can I spend a woman's money? You better use my money first.” After a moment's thought, Darren took out his wallet from his jacket pocket and placed it on Mia’s hands “ I have made some money while working part-time in a shop for the past few days.” Mia looked at his wallet, and her bangs covered
Darren averted his gaze. “ I rented this car. It’s your first day at work, I wanted to pick you up with it.” “Renting a luxury car, for just one day must have been expensive. Darren I know you did it out of kindness, but you don’t have to do this for me. We have to accept the reality and live our lives.” Mia stuttered, she was not the biological daughter of the Thompson family, but a simple girl who was used to poverty, she wasn't used to a life of luxury.The situation was embarrassing. She had been working hard to save up money to pay for the private investigator and meet her daily needs, Even though Darren didn’t spend her money, it still broke her heart to see him waste money on unnecessary luxuries. On second thought, she realized it must be difficult for Darren to change his habit because he was used to a lavish life. She couldn’t push him too hard. Mia handed the Wallet back to Darren “forget it.” She grinned happily. “ today is my first day at work, we should celebrate
Mia was busy everyday at work and seldom had time for herself. Time seemed to pass in the blink of an eye because she was consumed with work. “What a coincidence! How about we go back together?” David stopped Mia at the front of the elevator. Ever since Mia joined the Preston group, the two had been coincidentally meeting everyday at work. Sometimes Mia would meet David even though she worked over time. “David, how come we meet everyday after work?” Mia asked, smiling. Her biggest problem was not knowing to say no to people. Just then, her phone blared in her bag. She took it and saw Darren’s name flashing on the screen. Therefore, she quickly answered the call, “what’s up?” “I found a house. I’m in the cafe opposite your company. Let’s go and see the house together.” Darren’s words were brief and concise. She didn’t expect him to act fast. Mia pulled away her phone and looked at David apologetically, “ I’m sorry David, I have important work to do. I have to go now.” “Oka
‘What? One hundred bucks, for an apartment like this? That’s unbelievable’The man looked dumbfounded. However the apartment did not belong to him, so he couldn’t finalise the rent. “Mrs Edward, I’m actually surprised to hear your offer. However, this house isn’t mine. I need to check it with the landlord of the house.”He walked out of the room with his phone on the pretext of making a phone call. Taking the opportunity, he winked at Darren to ask for his opinion. Darren understood his gestures and agreed without hesitation. Mia was a little nervous. After all she knew her offer was definitely not acceptable. A few minutes later, the realtor returned with a smile. “The landlord has agreed.” Mia’s mouth popped open in shock. She tried slashing the price but didn’t think the landlord would actually agree. She blinked at Darren. Darren coughed and walked up to her “ what’s wrong?” “I don’t think this house is an ordinary haunted house. I think something extremely terrible must
Caught in the Act. “Why don’t you just break up with her?” The woman asked in a seductive voice. She was completely naked and riding a naked man. “Please, just stop mentioning her name while we are fucking” The man was so lost in pleasure, he did not need any distractions. The man was so excited, he squeezed the woman’s breast making her moan in pleasure, he was in a world filled with delight and extreme pleasure at the moment. The woman seemed dissatisfied as she didn’t get the answer she needed from the man. “No way, I wonder why you are still hooked on her? She’s just an adoptive daughter, Even the maids hold an important role in our house, what’s so good about her?” The man didn’t say anything. He gripped the woman’s waist and thrust harder, which made her scream and moan his name. Mia Thompson stood in front of the door listening to everything inside the room. Her tired eyes turned cold as she listened to the conversions. She had just returned from the orphanage home, whe
