She had totally forgotten about their date. They were supposed to have a date, since they cancelled the other one. She swiped right, and before she could say a word, Natalia had already took the initiative."Andrea!!!" She screamed so high, that Andrea had to take the phone away from her ear. If anyone had heard her screaming, they would think she was a teenager, not knowing she was an adult. An adult with a personality of a crazy woman. It only made her unique, as she was fun to be with. No matter how angry you were, once Natalia was involved, you would likely forget about the anger, and laugh your ass out. "Natalia, stop yelling!" Andrea could hear Natasha say. They were twins with different personalities. While Natalia was the crazy, yet cheerful woman with a whole lot of vibes, Natasha was more reserved. Though she was friendly, she was more quiet and calm.Andrea chuckled."Hey, cousin. How are you doing? It's been a while," she said, putting back the phone to her ear."We
Carina was too gladdened, that she couldn't sleep all night. She was the first to wake up, and Fiona chuckled at her eagerness.She didn't want to be late for work, not when she was about to start her duty as the interim secretary."I see someone's already up, so early."Fiona was already awake. She was a nocturnal person, so no matter how early anyone in the house would wake up, she would always be the first to awake."Fee! You scared me. Well, you can't blame me, I don't want to be late for work, you know," she giggled, " no need to ask why you are up so early. You never sleep," she added, before moving to the kitchen to make tea for her mother.Carina had already picked out the outfit for work, last night. After having her bath, she took the clothes out, and put it on. It was a turquoise shirt, and a black velvet skirt, which stopped a little above her knees, having a zip at the back, and a slit too.Matching it with a pair of black heels, she put on a gloss that made her lips glo
Alex nodded, and left immediately. He wondered why Carina couldn't stand up for herself. In all, he was glad that Sonia was there to protect her.He went straight to Tory, who was just starting her day."The CEO wants to see you in his office," he said, without a hint of smile on his face."Oh, the CEO is already here?" She muttered to herself, as she smiled and left.She had no idea that Jayden had seen all that she did. Not waiting for Tory to respond, he left her table to Sonia's. Sonia was with Carina, advising her to always stand up for herself, and what is right, without being afraid of anyone."Sonia's right, Carey. Do not let yourself get bullied by anyone. Learn to speak up and defend yourself," Alex said, drawing closer.They turned to see him coming to Sonia's office."See what I'm telling you? You can't let anyone walk on you. What if I wasn't there, you would really let her do all these to you?" Sonia asked, frowning.Carina had had enough of the lectures."Alright, alri
Tory hadn't realized that Carina had seen her. Carina was confused as to why she was glaring hard at her. She came out of the office to know if she had a problem or not.Tory was startled when she heard her voice. She quickly regained her composure, and hissed."Does it look like there is a problem? Just say you want to show off your new office," she said, rolling her eyes.Carina shook her head. Maybe, she should not have come out in the first place."Nevermind, I'll just…head back to work," she said, and left her.She didn't want to fight with her. She had no time for chitchats, especially with Tory.Tory couldn't take it, she glared at her. She felt like sapping life out of her. She stormed out, murmuring.Carina continued working, and was happy at how fast she progressed. After editing and reviewing her work, she printed it, so that she can show it to Alex.It was time for lunch, and she had just finished printing and compiling the documents. She took it to Alex's office."Hi, Ale
She couldn't believe her eyes. As she leaned close to Mikel, she opened her email, and found the attachment. She caught a glimpse of the headline, and couldn't help but feel astounded.Mikel also glanced at the attachment. He was amazed at how captivating it was. "Let me see that," he said. She brought the phone a little bit up, so he can also see it. They read the attachment together, and Andrea felt so proud of her."Who wrote this?" Mikel asked. "The interim secretary of the company," she replied, wondering what was his perception of the attachment."Fernando's Int'l has the most skillful workers, there is. I mean, this is compelling, and can persuade anyone to perform an action. This is really good," he said, nodding his head.Andrea was happy. Carina didn't need much training, she was already good at what she does. Only a few lessons on how to speak would do."I know right. Would you love to meet her? She is coming over in a few hours. I want to show a few things she need to
Nathan went over to Sonia, who was busy sorting out some documents. He stood there, without saying anything, and Sonia was not planning to act cool at all."What? Are you just going to stand there, and not say anything?" She asked, getting tired of his silence, uncomfortable with his presence. It was only distracting her.He looked at her, "where is Carina?" He asked, rudely. Sonia rolled her eyes, and continued with what she was doing. This act of hers made Nathan clench his hands. He was not there to waste time, and did not want to be patient, as he needed to know something."I asked you a question, Sonia.""Do I look like her guard? Even if I were to be one, I would not give you a reply, considering how rude you asked," she retorted.Sonia could be said to be the opposite of Carina. While Carina was quiet, and accepted whatever people did you her, Sonia was always standing up for herself. She would not let anyone treat her like a piece of garbage."I'm sorry. Do you know where Car
Carina stood up, and greeted him. "Hi, my name is Carina Bartholomew. It's a pleasure to meet you," she said, putting a smile on her face."It's nice to meet you, Carina. I'm Mikel," he said, shaking her hand.He did not want to mention his surname, so as not to create any drama. He sensed that Carina was trying to figure out who he was, and he wished she would not know.Carina had heard of the name before, but she had not seen his face. The only Mikel she knew was the CEO of Jackson's Automobiles, but it didn't mean someone else wouldn't bear the name.That was the only valid reason she could give herself.They sat together, and talked casually. Carina was starting to get used to Andrea's other side, and she began to relax, and not tense up.It was already past 5, and she needed to go."Thank you, for today. Thank you, Sir Mikel. I need to head home now," she said, and Andrea nodded in understanding.She picked up her phone from the table, and called Alex. Alex was with Jayden, whe
The call ended, and Nathan slammed his fist on his thigh. He calmed down, after a few minutes, and asked the driver to take him to the address, which he showed him.The man—though he had seen many dramas as a cab driver—had never seen such before. He first thought that he was mentally unstable. Having seen how red his eyes were through the rearview mirror, he felt pity for the lady he had seen.He wondered what relationship they had, but whatever the case may be, she needed to be careful.He wanted to tell, no, warn her, but she didn't know him, and he didn't know anything about their relationship. He did not want to be involved in their matter, as it was only a feeling he had, as a result of what he had observed. He could feel the danger oozing out of his body, as his eyes were fixed on Carina. After getting the address, he nodded, and turned right.He didn't want to strike a conversation with Nathan, as he didn't know what kind of person he was. He drove to the location, and that
