It was Monday, Quinn yawned in bed, as the smell from the kitchen woke her up.With her eyes half closed, she got out of bed to the kitchen and found Ivan making breakfast."Morning, princess." He greeted her, as soon as he sighted her.She stood by the door, taking a deep gulp as the aroma engulfed her nose."What's for breakfast?" She asked, slowly."Go and have your bath, first. You'll know what's for breakfast after that. You don't wanna be late for work on the first day of the week, do you?" Her brother said, winking at her.She waved her hand, trudging back to the room, and heading to the bathroom."Breakfast is ready, princess!" He yelled."I'm coming, give me some minutes!" She responded, rushing to put on her shoes. Since it was Monday, definitely an official and busy day for every business, she put on a crisp white button-down shirt and a well-fitted navy blue knee-length pencil skirt.Knowing that she would be having a long day, she did not want to add to the pain her legs

She was surprised that he let her go. The Harrison she knew now would seize every opportunity to frustrate her."What? Do you need anything else?" He asked, creasing his brows, as he stopped typing."N... no, sir. Sorry, thank you." She stuttered and bowed out. She walked out of the office to hers, and sat down, wondering if he had ulterior plans for her."Hey, I brought you lunch."She looked up, her eyes met that of Kimberly. Her face brightened up, as she heard her voice."Hey!" She said, hugging her. "How've you been? You've sort of been occupied lately, and I don't really get to see you anymore. Mr. Fitz even stopped you from coming to the cafeteria, where we usually meet," Kimberly expressed, wearing a sad face.Quinn gave her a reassuring smile, rubbing her shoulder to comfort her. "I'm always here, okay? I'm sure he will lift his restrictions on me, and we'll see again. And yes, I am really busy. I'm taking a two-day leave from work, I have something important to attend to,"

Quinn knew his schedule. He did not have any invitation, so she didn't think he would show up there. More reason she was carefree."I know you are mad at me. I should have supported both of you, but I let the family business go into the wrong hands. I'm sorry, Quinn, but it's never too late to make a change, is it? He is only there as the acting CEO, there is still a chance for you and your brother. I'll support the right people this time, and that is you and your brother," he stated, causing her to smile."Thank you, grandfather."As of then, the music had ended. He kissed her on the forehead and hugged her, before leaving to meet business people he once worked with.She walked over to Ivan with a broad smile on her face. She wrapped her hands around his neck and hugged him tightly."What's the good news?" Ivan asked, smiling even before she told him what it was about."Grandfather has agreed to support us. He is just an acting CEO, and he acts like he really owns the company. Like a

"Why the hell would be propose that? Did you accept?" Ivan asked after Quinn had narrated what transpired between her and her cousin."I didn't say anything. He asked me to think about it. I don't know what to do, Ivan. If I successfully get The Gerald's Conglomerate to partner with our family company, then, we could prove to Grandfather that we are capable of running the company. This is a huge opportunity for us, Ivan.""No, princess. You will do no such thing. Don't you know who you are dealing with? George Kendrick! He is corny and definitely has something up his sleeves. Don't fall for his games, princess. We will find a way to get the company and prove to Grandfather that we are capable," Ivan stated, trying to make her see his view.She sighed and walked away. She returned to her room and began to think of what to do.George was only acting as the CEO, so that meant that Grandfather was still managing most of the company's affairs. She was convinced that her grandfather knew ab

She served him his usual coffee and read out his schedule. She didn't give him a chance to say anything, she walked out of the office.Making sure that there was nothing that would make her come back to the company or get in contact with Harrison, she printed out the resignation letter and put it inside the envelope."Hmm," she sighed and kept the letter aside. She packed up her bag and made sure that the office was cleared, looking like the first day she came, only that memories would be left behind.However, she did not care. There were only bittersweet memories that she did not want to keep in.She walked out of the office to the cafeteria, since it was lunch break. She did not care if she was breaking his rules, after all, in a few minutes, she would no longer be a member of the company anymore."Quinn!" Kimberly yelled, waving at her to join them.She gave her a signal that said that she was coming. She walked to the counter and ordered just a bottle of water."Hey, guys." She sm
