"I know you are happy to go to Spain. I feel so jealous right now. I know you won't miss me," Quinn stated, accompanying him to the airport. "Oh, c'mon. You know I will definitely miss you. Besides, I'm not going for any vacation. I'm going there to work." Ivan countered. She playfully hit his arm, "we both know that that is a lie. I can only imagine how your face was when your boss told you that you would be going to Spain." There was a short silence, before she added, "Well, it's for the best. At least, you will be able to see her and fix your relationship with her. You two really have a long way to go." "How about you? Won't you find someone to make a partner?" He asked. "Me? I don't need a partner. I'm fine that way." Ivan sighed, "The one for you will surely come." "Passengers leaving for Madrid, Spain, your flight will take off in ten minutes." Quinn turned to Ivan, "I wish you could stay in Florida, and help me with the company, but I know that your work in Spain is more
"Good morning, everyone. I would like to introduce to all of you here my assistant. Her name is Veronica," Quinn introduced, beckoning Vera to come to the center.She smiled, adjusting her yellow knee-length straight gown. She walked up to Quinn and stood beside her.Turning to the rest of the employees, she watched their expressions before talking."Hi, everyone. It's a pleasure to be here and to work in this prestigious company. I want you all to know that you are always welcome and you can ask me and talk to me about anything you want to. With your cooperation, I believe we can move this company forward. Thank you, as you accept me and work with me."She bowed out and they all applauded her. She felt welcomed, as some employees began to greet her and introduce themselves to her."Argh, I didn't think they would be so nice." She voiced out, as they got to the office."Well, they are, except for a few seniors, which, of course, are on George's side," Quinn responded."Your first task
"Kings And Queens, Brickell Street."Quinn stared at the address, and sighed. She did not want to go, but Vera had forced her to."Just a little touch here and there, and we are done," Vera said, applying the contour on her face."Do I really have to go?" She asked, letting out a soft sigh."Oh, c'mon. You need to. You just partnered with one of the biggest and richest conglomerates in the whole world! That's something any CEO would die for to just get to propose their plan."Quinn nodded, and got up to check out her outfit."Oh, Christ! I'm really jealous of you now, Quinn. Look at you!" Quinn raised her eyelids, turning her attention to the mirror.She wore a stunning red cocktail dress that hugged her figure in all the right places. To top her dress, she wore a strapped high heels that elevated her stature, making her look like a model.Her hair was styled in soft waves that cascaded over her back, holding on to a black clutch. The makeup that Vera did for her was so sophisticate
She turned, and widened her eyes. She had expected him to go back home, but he did not."Let's go," he said to her.She had no other choice than to agree. As they got to the other side, where his car was parked, she refused to get in."I don't want to enter your car. You can leave me here, I will be fine." She mouthed."Why? It's dark, and I cannot live you here alone. What if something happens to you?" He asked in a concerned tone.She looked away. "Well, I cannot afford to have another issue with your fiancee. I am not ready for a fight."He chuckled, "whoever said I had a fiancee?"She looked at him, "I don't care whoever she is to you. I just don't want to see you."He smiled, staring at her lips.A frown appeared on her face, as she asked."What? Why are you looking at me like that? Go, already!""I can't stop staring at you. You are so beautiful in this dress. I suppose red is your favorite color, because it suits you perfectly well. If all men could stop to stare at you, then,
"Hmm," she moaned, moving closer, resting her head on something she could not easily place her mind on. It felt comfortable, and she did not wish to wake up anymore. She just wanted to remain there, maybe forever. She felt protected as his arms wrapped around her tiny waist, and for a moment, she felt at peace. He, too, felt as though he had never had any good sleep in his life, until today. It was so unlike him to sleep this long, as he was usually awake in the early hours of the morning. Slowly, her eyes flickered open, and the first thing they caught was the work of art that was similar to that of a Greek god. She wondered if this was a dream or if it was really a reality. As she stared at his face, and how peaceful he slept, she could not help but feel lost. Suddenly, like a flash, all the memories from yesterday began to play in her mind. She looked at him well and realized that it was not a dream and that she was sleeping on the same bed as Harrison. Not only did they slee
"Hey, if you are not busy tonight, how about you come over?" Eva texted, biting her lips.It had been three days since Ivan arrived in Spain, and she had not seen him. He was occupied with work, as he tried to catch up with the recent happenings.His phone dinged while at lunch in the company, and she smiled. He had tried hard to finish up everything so that he could have some time with her, and luckily, she texted on the right day.He picked up his phone and texted back, "Sure. I will be there by 8 pm.""Aww, Senor is blushing! Tell me, who is that woman that is making you smile so much?" One of his colleagues asked, eager to hear from him.Ivan chuckled, "It's my woman. She is cooking for me. Too bad you are too single to relate," he said and got up, taking his leave.The guy just stood there, shocked at his reply. He didn't even know what to say.Ivan managed to clear up all that he had to do, meaning that while he would be with Eva, there would be no cause for an emergency call or
Quinn's expression immediately turned sour as soon as she saw the person standing in front of her.She had not expected him to come down to Florida just to see her, and of course, not for any good purpose."Uh, I will see you later, Quinn," Vera voiced out, taking her leave.Quinn sighed, leaning on the table and crossing her arms over her chest."What do you want?" She asked, getting straight to the point."That's such a bad way to welcome your cousin. I mean, should you not, at least, ask me to have a seat,, and the, you serve me wine or somethin?. Look at me; I am George Kendrick, your dear cousin, not your ex-boyfriend or employee," he said, looking around the office."You really think you have won, don't you? Just look at the way you furnished the office to your taste like you are going to remain here permanently.""Did you come all the way from Texas just to see how you lost to me? That's interesting, I mean, I have never seen anyone return to what he or she had lost. You really
Her eyes bore a tinge of surprise as he made that confession. She never thought that her high school big-time crush was actually in love with her as well.She could not tell how she was feeling. If she were to choose between Greg and Harrison now, she would immediately choose Greg, especially after what Harrison did to her."What? Are you surprised?" He asked, chuckling.Before she could reply, her phone rang. She looked away, taking her bag to remove her phone.It was Harrison.She frowned, wondering why he was calling her now. However, she answered the call."Sorry, excuse me," she whispered to Greg and got up.She took a few steps away and placed the phone on her ear."You are only allowed to call me during work hours. What do you want?"He sighed, "Can you not be like this, please?"There was no response, so he continued."I just called to check up on you, and maybe if you could hang out.""Please, let's maintain the business formalities. We cannot hang out, because I have work to
