Happy Valentine's Day, beautiful people!❤️
AUTHOR’S POV.“How long is it going to take? It should have been ready, you know that,” Mogan said to the man who stood in front of her.“I am so sorry, ma'am. The furniture got delayed. It will arrive tomorrow and I will begin work immediately. I am truly sorry,” he bowed.Mogan breathed out and looked around the empty office again.Every other part of the company was done except her office. She had wanted a unique job in her office so she had hired the man and he had disappointed her.Of course, she knew he was going to deliver, she had known him for a while and had worked for him when she got married years ago.“Please, get on it fast. The launching is in two weeks,” she said.“It will be done before then, I promise.”“Ma’am.”Mogan turned around when she heard her secretary call her.“You have a visitor downstairs,” he said.“Who is it?”“I don’t know his name, ma’am. He would not tell me.”She waved her hand at the furniture interior designer and then followed her secretary downs
AUTHOR’S POV. “You want me to believe that, Ethan?” “Ella,” Ethan breathed out and shook his head. He just felt like it was time he told her the truth. He was tired of being misunderstood. He wanted her to know what truly happened. She deserved to know the truth too. He deserves to be forgiven too. He deserves to be given another chance. He… he had never for one day moved on from his ex-wife. “I’m sorry.” “So, are you saying that Vanessa drugged you?” “Yes. She did.” Mogan pinned her eyes on the man for a few seconds before she finally shook her head. “I don’t trust you. Leave, please. I am busy.” “I am sure you are very aware that I am not lying to you. And I would appreciate it very much if you would give me another chance to…” “No, Ethan. I’m done with you. I have moved on from you… totally. Please, leave.” Ethan nodded his head and then stood up gently. He moved closer to her, smiled, and then clasped his hands together. “I will see you again, Ella.” Mogan watched
AUTHOR’S POV.“Why did you do that to me?” Sapphire drew her brows together as Aidan said and she scoffed.Was he stupid?Now that she was thinking of it, she did not know why she had liked this man.Back then, she had believed he was everything she needed in a man and more and she loved that he loved her.Because she did not grow up with love, she was going to do anything to keep their relationship going.She initially agreed to marry Daniel because of him.She was scared that her parents were going to hurt him.Now that she thinks of it, it was actually right of them to have threatened her with the man.Otherwise, she would have never met Daniel nor know what it was like to be his wife.“Do you know what will happen if that man finds out that…”“Why did you do that?” Sapphire cut him short.“Do what?”“Emerald and me. Was it fun?” She asked.A knowing smile spread on Aidan’s face and he sucked his lower lips while he nodded his head.“You think I liked you? A nerd like you?”“You’r
AUTHOR’S POV.“There is no way he is aware. You must be mistaken,” George, Emerald’s father protested.Emerald hissed and then ran her hand through her hair. It’s been almost a week since Aidan told her that Logan was aware. She was not sure how to process it and had kept mute ever since. Why were things going wrong already?Why would Logan sit still if he was aware?It does not make any sense, right?There was no way he would sit still after finding out that he was deceived.Aidan was wrong. Aidan must have heard wrong. That must be it.“Can you get anything right at all? It’s all your fault!” She yelled.“I’m sorry, my princess,” he clasped his hands together and then pressed his lips together.“And… What is with what I am hearing? You have been deposed from your position in your company?”“W… where did you hear that from?”“Dad, It’s all over the internet!” She screamed as she stomped her feet on the ground.“It’s not true. Believe me. I just took a leave. I needed to rest and the
AUTHOR’S POV.Sapphire’s face lit up as she saw Hilda who walked towards her and she waved her hands at her in excitement.“Hilda!” She squealed in excitement.“How… you…”“I invited her,” Daniel whispered in Sapphire's ear.“Really? You did not tell me!”Daniel shrugged his shoulder and then moved closer to his sister who stood by the entrance, welcoming her guests in.He had deliberately invited her because he hoped she and Liam would meet again.Liam had kept mute regarding whatever might have happened between them and he hoped it would get resolved.No lady had ever succeeded in shaking Liam up the way Hilda did, and he found that very fun!Sapphire and Hilda spoke for a while before Daniel moved back to them and beckoned to her that it was time to go inside.“Let’s go inside,” she mouthed to Hilda as she dropped her palm on Daniel’s palm.They were about to leave when their eyes caught the sight of the couple that just entered and Sapphire breathed out.“Oh, my princess!” George
AUTHOR’S POV.“What are you talking about?” George feigned ignorance.Alice leaned back and then beckoned to the waiter to come to her. When the man got there, she took a glass of champagne and then sipped it gently before she dropped it again.“I was not going to talk yet. I mean, I wanted Sapphire to tell me first, but… I hate your gut, George.”“What? Me?” Sapphire’s father frowned and pointed his hand on his chest.“Hold on, you planned on switching them again? You want your eldest daughter to take Sapphire’s place and live as Daniel’s wife like nothing happened?”“I don’t understand what you are talking about at all. You are…”“On the sixteenth of March of this year, around 2:45 PM, Emerald got into an accident and slipped into comatose. On the nineteenth of March, she married Daniel. How is that possible?”“I…it’s… you are mistaken.”“You forced your daughter to replace Emerald. And now that she is awake, you want them to switch places back? You are insane,” Alice burst into lau
AUTHOR’S POV.“Did something happen?“ Hilda muttered to herself as she watched everyone disperse and then exhaled.It was obvious that Sapphire and Daniel had gone after Daniel’s parents who seemed to have left in anger, so she knew she had to wait till later when she could ask her what was wrong.She took a glance at Liam who browsed through his phone and ignored her totally.The man had not said a single word to her and she hated the silent treatment.Things like this do not usually bother her, but why does she hate it so much now that he was doing it to her?He did not even look at her!She continued to contemplate if she should talk to the man first or just let him be.When she could not take it any longer, she clasped her hands together and parted her lips to talk when his phone beeped and he picked it up almost immediately.She watched as she talked to the person on the phone for a while while he still kept a straight face and she kept playing with her hands.“Hi,” she said when
AUTHOR’S POV.“Liam!” Hilda exclaimed as she finally caught up with the man and panted.She had been following him and calling out his name since she was out of the premises and she could swear that he knew she was following.“What’s wrong with you?” She snapped her brows together as she stood upright.She adjusted her dress and stared at the man who only looked at her.“What do you mean? I should be asking you the same, don’t you think?”“You knew I was after you.”“I believe we have finished talking,” he said rather emotionlessly.How could he change towards her in that short period of time? Was it because of what she said?Was that so wrong?She should be the one giving this attitude, no?“Liam, why are you acting this way? Why are you being immature?”“Immature, you say?” Liam scoffed and chuckled.“I am acting immature now that I am letting you be?”“Why are you letting me be? I never asked that from you!” She retorted.“What exactly do you want from me? I don’t understand why yo
