The moment Kevin opened his eyes, they rested on the digital alarm clock. His eyes widened momentarily.“8:00AM?" He murmured, his brows slightly furrowed as he massaged his right temple. Then he sluggishly pulled himself out of bed. He stopped by the alarm clock, picked it up and turned it over a few times. “This thing must be faulty,” he commented as he dropped it and made his way straight to the bathroom, making a mental note to replace it.The previous night, he had set the alarm to wake him earlier than that. Though, he normally never needs an alarm. But he had a stressful day the previous day and he slept late. So the alarm hadn't done its required job. Although, he suspected that it tried to get its job done but he probably turned it off when his system was still drugged by sleep. He didn't feel like his usual agile self this morning. His body yearned to return to the inviting softness of the bed, but he knew better than to give into that urge.He needed to be at his newly lau

Kevin's brows slightly furrowed as he munched slowly. “O'Brien? Doesn't ring a bell. What is the family like?”Lionel shrugged, "I have no idea. I'm yet to look into them but I'm sure they're not bad. Since the Mayor specifically chose them, I'm certain that they wouldn't be like the Watson family.”“They better not be," Kevin said firmly.“They won't," Lionel said, certain that the Mayor has made a good choice but he added anyway, “I will look them up in my free time.”"That will be good. It never hurts to take preventive measures."Almost immediately, Alessia piped up. "That reminds me, Kevin. What about the Howards?” Kevin looked up at her, his brows raised."What do you intend to do concerning his frozen account?” She elaborated. She was glad she remembered to talk about this before he left again. "Yeah, about that," Kevin muttered as he massaged his forehead. “I was thinking… we'd need to invite the manager of his bank for that, yes?”"That would be the best option,” Lionel supp

As Amy made her way out of the interview room, headed for her office, she turned back to see the secretary running after her. So she stopped walking.“Goodness, you walk so fast for a lady,” the secretary panted. "And in those heels?" She added as her gaze dropped on the manager's feet when she bowed down to catch her breath.Amy shrugged, a small smile on her lips. “When you wear them everyday, you'd get used to it."The secretary shook her head. “Anyway, the boss will like to see you.""Okay, thanks,” Amy nodded, her intended location switching to the boss’ office. When she turned around to leave, the secretary stopped her.“Also there's an instruction he gave and I suspect that he might have made a mistake."Amy's brows pulled together. "What type of mistake is that?”"I think he mixed up a name,” she said with a worried shake of her head.Before Amy could make further inquiry, the secretary's phone rang.The secretary put her palm up. “Please, let me take this call, I'll be right

Amy's gaze was fixed on the documents on the laptop in her hand as she made her way to Kevin's office. The documents were mock copies of the file of the list of candidates that applied for the social media management role that she sent to him.Amy stopped before his door, balanced her laptop and the documents in one hand then she rapped her knuckles on the door in a soft knock.Kevin looked up from his computer screen when he heard a knock on the door. “Come in," he voiced out, reclining in his seat.Amy stepped in and closed the door behind her. “Good day sir."“Oh Amy," his gaze flickered from the sheaf of papers in her hand back to his screen. “I was just going through the mail you sent to me. You have the hard copies of the reports with you now, right?“Yes sir.”“Thank you, have your seat.”Amy couldn't figure out why she had to print out the copies when he was already going through the file she sent him.Kevin stretched out his hand for the document, his eyes fixed on his compute

Kevin raised his head as Alessia came inside with Rosa.“I hope the journey here wasn't too tedious. I didn't mean to stress you."Alessia waved her manicured hand in the air. "Come on, it's nothing,” she said as she dropped into the seat beside Amy, her gaze fully on Kevin. Then she shrugged and added smugly, "Besides, I won't deny the fact that I kind of enjoyed the popularity show. Sometimes all you need for a confidence boost is a thousand admiring eyes on you. I could come here twice a day if you want me to.”Kevin threw his head back and laughed. “Oh Alessia.” He shook his head fondly at her. “People adore you all the time."She shook her head. “No. This place is different.”The moment she climbed down from her car and stepped into Print Odd company, she had immediately heard the whispers and felt the adoring stares; the people she had to communicate with before she met the secretary spoke to her with so much adoration in their eyes.Whereas back in her companies, as she was alwa

“That was one fun drive,” Alessia laughed as she climbed down from the car.Kevin smiled. “I agree.”During the drive, they had talked about random things, and it just made Alessia feel closer to Kevin.They both made their way into the hospital's building. They were treated with utmost respect because of Alessia.“Good afternoon, ma'am, sir. Do you wish to see the doctor?" One of the nurses on duty at the receptionist recited with glee.“No. We are not here to see the doctor.” Alessia stepped forward. "Lisa Howard is admitted here. We've come to see her.”The nurse nodded. She whipped up Lisa Howard's details from the system before her and gave them her ward number. Afterward, she gave them a brief direction to the wing where the ward would be located so they wouldn't have a hard time finding the ward.“Daddy,” Lisa paused and took another bite of the apple her father had gotten her. “Do you—"Lisa's words broke off as soon as the door slowly creaked open. All of their gazes riveted

Howard watched as Lisa's chest slightly rose and fell, her eyes closed. He was relieved that she was now better than when she first came here. She looked so peaceful in her sleep, unlike when she was first admitted and her face was always contorted in pain in her sleep. He still vividly remembered the groans of pain as she winced that kept him awake through several nights.He reached forward and gently removed the strands of hair that her soft breath had blown to her face.Just then, the door was gently pushed open and Irene stepped inside. She had gone out to get some apples for Lisa. She had been craving them, and the hospital had run out of them. “She's asleep,” Irene commented as she stepped into the room and carefully closed the door behind her.Howard smiled as he looked at his wife. “We were just talking. I didn't get her response, so I turned to face her. That was when I saw that she had dozed off.” His gaze fell on the apples in the polythene bag that was in her hand. “We'l

“I'm glad we were able to make this trip," Alessia said as they stepped out of the hospital premises into the open air.“Yeah, now that is out of my schedule. I'm actually very glad that I was able to make it here. I'm happy that Lisa is better now, and Irene seemed to be over the trauma of all that happened.”“Yes,” Alessia answered, a smile on her face as she remembered the vibrant conversation she had with Irene. "She smiled a lot and even laughed while we talked. I know that seeing her daughter and husband doing well made it all easier for her.“Yes.” Kevin voiced.Alessia, who was initially trailing behind Kevin, caught up to him and stopped by his side.“Thank you," she said out of the blue. "Thank you for all that you do," she said sincerely. "Thank you for listening to Irene when she came crying to you. Thank you for being reactive. Thank you so much for putting smiles on the faces of all these people.”Kevin looked at Alessia, a small smile on his face. Alessia occasionally s
