"You've seen Mr. William Smith's face, he looks very young. It's true that many young people are good at business, but he doesn't look like an intelligent person. I saw him in the lobby when he first arrived, but he looked very surprised. I even heard from one of his secretaries that he doesn't even know how to sign documents properly," explained a male employee who was washing his hands at the sink.Another employee beside him replied. "Yeah, she said that he doesn't know how to turn on a computer either. Gosh, is it because he was born rich that when he wants to turn on the computer, a servant does it for him?"The first man laughed mockingly. "Rich people usually have a good education, but he seems to be too lazy. But you know, right, there's no difference between lazy and stupid people."The two men who had finished washing their hands laughed. One of them said, "What will become of this company if it's led by an incompetent person like him.""Maybe we should look for another comp
People walked quickly into the Emerald Corp building because they didn't want to be late. Andre looked up at the tall building with a big smile. He had come to the company just to try his luck. Little did he know that there he would meet William who promised to give him a job. He walked into the building with a smile on his face, then made his way to the receptionist since he couldn't pass through the flap barrier gate without a card."Good morning, can I help you?" the receptionist asked.Andre tapped his fingers on the reception desk and raised one eyebrow, giving him a haughty look. "I'm Andre Bellard. I'd like to see William Smith because I have an appointment." He moved his face forward and covered the side of his mouth and whispered, "I'm his friend."The receptionist looked at Andre with a forced smile. She certainly wouldn't believe that William had a friend like Andre. The shirt Andre was wearing was worn out and from a cheap brand. How could a big company owner be friends wi
William gulped as he gazed in awe at the interior of his private jet. He had never even been on a commercial airplane. This was his first time on a plane.William was born in Bergin City, and the furthest place he had ever been was New Eden City, where he now lives. It was a two-hour subway ride from Bergin City to News Eden City.At that time, William sat in a seat on one of the decks right next to the airplane window. He fastened his seatbelt as instructed by the cabin attendant before the plane took off. His hands clung tightly to the soft seat cushion as he tensed up after hearing the pilot's announcement that the plane departing from Edenshire International Airport for Crimson Land International Airport was about to take off. According to the information, the air journey would last for six hours without transit."The trip to White Island is quite long, about six hours. Are you sure you want to start working as soon as you get there?" asked Noah.William, who was tense as the plan
Tom opened his eyes wide to stare at the man who had just walked into the meeting room. He shook his head, unable to believe his vision. He turned to Selena who was also looking at him. The man who had just come in was the same William who had caught him cheating on Selena in a cramped old apartment bed. It was impossible."Wait a minute, why are you here?" Tom stood up and asked William in a loud voice. "This place is not a place that someone like you can enter."The meeting participants looked at Tom in astonishment because they knew that the man standing before them was the William Smith they wanted to work with.Gregori, who couldn't accept his master being insulted, jumped to his defense, "Who do you think you're talking to? He's Mr. William Smith who will be judging your presentations in person and will choose who gets to partner with Emerald Corp."Tom was frozen in place, wishing someone could snap him out of his stupid dream. How could that poor man be the owner of Emerald Co
William raised his feet on the terrace handrail with his back leaning against the chair. The golden brown liquid in the glass he held swayed as he shook the glass. His gaze was fixed on the beach behind his villa, but he did not notice the beauty of the twilight as the sun was about to return to its lair. His mind was filled with the pleasure he had just had in meeting Selena and Tom face to face."Hahaha," his laughter echoed. One hand held his cramping stomach as she couldn't contain his laughter. "This is so much fun," he said after her laughter stopped.His head looked up at the darkening sky. He started daydreaming about his next revenge. At the very least, he had to make those two people feel the humiliation that he felt back then. However, what would he repay them with? Even though he was now rich, it didn't mean he could look down on Tom who was the son of a well-known company owner."Babe!" called Noah who was only wearing a white bathrobe.William, who was deep in thought ab
Part 18"I didn't expect you to come. You were busy, but you made time to come to my party. I'm so happy," Britney said after releasing her hug with Noah."I happened to be on vacation on the island with my boyfriend, so I was able to attend."Britney's gaze finally fell on William. "Oh, it turns out you have a new boyfriend. I heard you attended the charity event with your new boyfriend, but I didn't know he was this hot."William gave Britney a friendly smile. He really didn't expect that he could be around famous models that he used to only see in magazines. He got to know Britney briefly, before becoming a listening ear to Noah and Britney's conversation about the fashion week they would be attending together. Sometimes she would just reply with a small nod and a short answer when the two women nearby spoke to him. He didn't understand anything they were saying, let alone about fashion. He didn't even know the brand of clothes he herself wore."I wouldn't have guessed that he's a
"F*ck!" shouted Tom as he threw the glass of alcohol he was holding.The sound of the glass shattering was loud enough to make Selena, who was sitting on the sofa not far from Tom, jump in surprise. She turned to Tom who seemed to be in an emotional state."That poor man is William Smith? That makes no sense! How is it that in just a few weeks he has suddenly become the owner of Emerald Corp. No matter how much I think about it, it's impossible!" hissed Tom with his teeth chattering in anger.Tom had both hands on his waist. The three buttons of his shirt were undone and his sleeves were rolled up. He turned to Selena whose mind was wandering to the thought of William. Tom's eyes squinted, trying to guess Selena's thoughts. Although he couldn't read minds, he knew that she was thinking about William. He quickly grabbed Selena's hair and pulled her up."Damn it!" snapped Tom.Selena held Tom's hand that was pulling her hair, trying to get free. "Ouch, that hurts, Tom!" she whimpered."
After the vacation at the castle ended, William brought Noah and Micah back to stay at the mansion. Upon returning from there, Noah felt that all her memories were impossible. She felt that she had never met William before. So she just felt that the memories were fake. Although in her mind, Noah already felt comfortable with William. He was very warm and responsible. Even Noah was always cared for without being restrained. Noah, who had resumed her activities as a model, began to occupy herself with her world. She didn't want to get lost in her uncertain feelings. She was happy to see Micah actively playing and occasionally missed William when he was out of town on business. However, Noah tries to suppress her feelings. Being a model and brand ambassador gave her a little distraction from her feelings.A hundred days had passed, but Noah decided not to accept William, even though she was secretly in love with the man. She just didn't want to become William's past. Even though William
Noah continued to think about William's offer after returning to her hotel. She felt that William's story didn't make sense. How could he die and come back to life in the same body. However, when she said goodbye earlier, Micah cried to keep her from leaving. At that moment, Noah's heart was touched and she was a little convinced. "Is it true what William said?" Noah was confused alone in her hotel room. Not long after, her cell phone rang and it was a call from the agency. Noah lazily answered the call. The voice on the other end was shouting and wanted Noah to come back from her vacation quickly. "Hurry back and work again Noah! I allowed you only two days of vacation, but it's been more than two days!""I'm just exercising my right," Noah said."Don't mess with me, Noah. Who would you be if it wasn't for the agency that raised you? You think you can make it to the top of popularity like this on your own!"Noah hung up and threw the phone away. She began to rethink William's offer
Noah has been having nightmares again, lately if she has a lot of thoughts or is too tired she always has nightmares. Noah often wakes up in the middle of the night because of her dreams. A murder against her. Noah was always frightened and couldn't sleep anymore if she just had the dream. Noah would spend her time waiting for the morning by opening her bedroom window and looking at the view of the city with the flickering lights decorating it.Noah actually wanted to go to the doctor to consult her dreams, but she didn't have much time. Her manager was always giving her endless work. She was like a cash cow for the agency, but she still couldn't rebel. She doesn't have enough courage to rebel. Because it was the agency that made her the super model she is today. Returning the favor is like a mantra that binds Noah to her agency.The cell phone rang from the nightstand, Noah glanced at the flat object and just let it flicker. She didn't move from the side
"I'm sorry I took up your time," Noah said as she faced William."No problem. I don't have any work today. Just checking the employees' work.""That's good, so I don't feel too guilty.""Never mind. Whenever you need me, just call. I'll come," William said.Noah nodded, she flashed her sweet smile and William responded in kind. They talked about many things, not about work or personalities but about general things that happened. Noah didn't talk about the incident in the park, nor her problem with Mr. Samael who asked her to be the lead in the movie that the producer was going to work on.William told her more about the tourist destinations he knew. All the places William mentioned were places he had been to with Noah. He wanted to know the reaction of the woman in front of him when he heard about those beautiful places. However, Noah just didn't move. She just listened as William told the story, her face was flat. "Have you bee
"Aaargh! Let go! Please don't hurt me!" Noah begged while continuing to curl up in pain. Her legs and hands were tied and the man, whose face was unclear, approached her with a crowbar. Noah struggled with a pleading look in her eyes, shaking her head and asking the man in front of her not to hit her. Unfortunately, the crowbar flew at Noah's head. The woman let out a long scream. Noah was breathing heavily, she was in her own room. Her head felt dizzy with her heart racing. Noah looked around, it was her room then she grabbed the glass of water on the nightstand. She gulped it down, the dream just now really drained her strength. She took a deep breath to normalize her heartbeat."It was just a dream," Noah muttered. She rubbed her face lightly, sweat soaking her face and body. Even though the air conditioning was at its maximum, Noah was still sweating. She looked at the clock on the wall, it was already 4am. She went to the window and opened the curtains. There was a marvelous vi
Noah's screams made William immediately run to the set. Flames were splashing from one of the flash lights mounted in the corner. He saw Noah look down in fear as the flames from the lamp almost hit her. William hurriedly took off his suit and covered Noah's head with it. He then carried Noah out of the room. Noah was almost killed if William didn't move quickly. Mr. Ramos approached the two and apologized for Noah's accident. The woman was still in shock and just nodded. Then Mr. Ramos excused himself to see the condition of the filming site. William took Noah away and sat her on the sofa he had been sitting on with Mr. Ramos. He saw Noah's face pale, the woman in front of him was really scared."Are you okay?" asked William."I'm very scared," Noah said."Calm down. It was just an accident, now you're safe, Noah.""Thank you, Will. I don't know what would have happened to me without you.""No problem. I also had a meeting with Mr. Ramos earlier. So I came here," William lied a litt
Noah tipped her hat as the wind picked up. Her flowing hair was a little messy because she had long hair. Not all of her hair was covered by the hat, making it difficult for Noah. She held her hat and hair with both hands. Her gaze lowered, not knowing that someone was nearby. Noah was surprised when the person cleared his throat, scaring her. She was about to move from her seat but someone sitting not far from her pulled out a pocket knife from his pocket, Noah widened her eyes and shook her head slowly."Where are you going, Miss?" The person played with the switchblade in front of Noah. The woman looked around the park, it was quiet. She didn't realize that twilight had passed and turned dim. The park was deserted, there were probably a few people still in the park. Mostly lovers who were busy with their own intimacy. The distance between Noah and the couple was also quite far. Maybe if she screamed, people would ignore her. People would think that Noah was fighting with her boyfri
"Good morning," greeted William as he approached Noah. He was taking a walk in the park. Little did he know that Noah was already there promoting the new summer edition of the drink. She was doing a photo shoot for this season's cooking magazine. William smiled, while a look of surprise was evident on Noah's face."Hi, why are you here?" Noah asked."Looking for some fresh air," William said."Heem, it's fresh here in the morning. I deliberately chose the morning time when I was offered a photo shoot for this summer drink.""Yes. I like the morning atmosphere here too. The sun is brighter this summer.""You're right," Noah agreed. They engaged in small talk that morning. William deliberately waited for Noah to finish the photo shoot. Then they went for a walk not far from the park. A classic coffee shop with a European feel became their choice to chat. Noah deliberately chose a seat close to the window. From her place, she could see the yellowing maple leaves. The streets were also st
Noah, who got a lot of surprises that day, found out that it was all from William. She wanted to return a set of jewelry that William had given her, but her manager forbade it. After Noah thought about it, it was better for her to keep the jewelry to appreciate William. After all, William was not like those businessmen who liked to look down on models like her."Great performance," William said, clapping his hands as he met Noah in her office."Thank you. You're not home yet?" Noah asked conversationally."Waiting for you. How about I drop you off?" William offered. However, Noah politely declined. She said she would go to her agency's office first before going home. A disappointed William excused himself, a look of sadness and disappointment on his face and in his eyes. This made Noah feel guilty. However, she also didn't want to give William hope. Her heart is still closed to William.The man with thick eyebrows and blue eyes drove his car to his mansion. He had done a lot for Noah,
