“Hey, Mimi,” Aidan called out with a happy face and gestured toward her.
Sharon was still yet to comprehend what was happening as she stared at Mimi happily exchanging pleasantries with Aidan and his family members.‘They didn't welcome me like this when I came in. So, why are they passionately welcoming this lady who stopped me on my way down here? I hope she isn't Aidan's new girlfriend.’ Sharon wondered inside of her.“It has been a while, Mimi. You are looking gorgeous. I guess school life is the best for you.” said Aidan as he was happy to see the maid he helped secure admission into one of the best universities in the city.Mimi was looking more beautiful than the way she was when she was still a maid to Kate back then.“Well, I won't say yes, and I won't say no because the only thing I think about is reading my books and that's all. I'm not a mother who should be worried about her children. I guess that's why I'm getting beautifulAfter driving a few miles around the city, they arrived at Gregory's mansion.The gate men informed Gregory about Sharon's presence because it was an unexpected visit.He permitted the guard that Sharon should be brought, and he obeyed.Sharon was led to a garden filled with numerous attractive flowers. There, Gregory was having fun with some ladies, but when he was told about Sharon's presence, he dismissed them.Her right hand was balled into a fist and while the pictures were in her left hand. Gregory's guards quickly noticed how angry Sharon was, which told them that she was either there to harm their boss or something.For that reason, Sharon's driver was asked to stay back and wait for his mistress' arrival, while five of Gregory's guards led her to their boss.“Wow!” Gregory gasped and stood up from his seat with a considerable smile plastered on his face. “ See who we have got here. I never knew you missed me so much that
“I'm not a kid that you have to be fooling around with, Antonio. Did you give me this ring just for fashion, huh? If you knew you were not going to marry me anytime soon, then why did you propose to me in the first place?” Kate yelled at the tall young man standing before her with his hands akimbo and a depressed expression written all over his face.“But I have told you countless times that I have been experiencing some issues which aren't allowing me to fix the wedding date. Try to understand what I'm saying, please.” Antonin protested.“What the heck is wrong with you, Antonio? You keep telling me that you are experiencing issues, but you never open up and tell me what is going on with your life that is hindering you from fixing the wedding date. Tell me if you no longer need me, please. I'm fed with all these excuses, please.”Kate's words were hurting him, but she would never understand what he had been passing through since the day he proposed to her
“Your days on earth are over, Alicia. Say your last word and goodbye to this evil world. I will miss you, but don't worry, we will meet in the afterlife when my time comes too.” he said and placed his finger on the trigger.To his greatest amazement, Alicia didn't show any sign of fear in her; rather, she sheepishly smiled at him and then began to walk up to him.“Stay back, or I will blow off your brain without sympathy, Alicia,” he warned with the gun still pointing at her, but Alicia turned deaf ears to his warnings.Just then, Alicia grabbed his hand and lifted the gun to her temple, and properly placed it there, so he could blow off her brain as he said.“Go ahead and shoot me, Antonio.” she conversed with him as though she were threatening him.Antonio became cold as he wondered why Alicia wasn't scared of the gun in his hand.Does she have some magic that she thinks will protect the bullet from penetrating her skull or wha
It was another beautiful day, and Sharon took the guard who was sent by Gregory to go with Sharon and convince Aidan she and Gregory weren't dating.However, she tried calling Aidan to inform him that she was coming with someone who was going to prove her innocent, but Aidan's contact wasn't connected.Upon noticing this, she was fully convinced that Aidan had blacklisted her phone number.Nonetheless, Sharon made up her mind and took the young man along with her too. Aidan's house. She was ever ready to take any risk just to prove her innocence to Aidan. Sharon and the young man who Gregory sent could be seen sitting in the car as they stared at the tall gate with different paint for beautification before them. They were a bit of distance away from the gate. They remained there for a few minutes so that her heart could settle before she could horn because she knew the gate wouldn't automatically open for her like the way it does f
Aidan's smirk suddenly turned to a chuckle as he continued reading the letter until he was done reading it.Sharon's mind was restless as she gulped and eagerly waited for Aidan to say something after reading everything.When he was done reading everything, he proceeded and brought the pictures that were attached to the letter.He intensively fixed his gaze on the pictures in his hand. He tried hard not to get angry because he had nothing to do with Sharon again, but he found himself frowning at the pictures. The more pictures he sees, the angrier he gets.“Fantastic,” Aidan muttered and nodded his head.Even when he smiled, Sharon could tell how hard it was for him to wear that fake smile on his face; it wasn't genuine, and it was clear in his expression.“So…” Aidan began and Sharon swallowed hard. “ You came to make me feel jealous, or what? Because I consider this as absolute rubbish. Just because I was committed to
A week later… Sharon was preparing to leave for the office. Her business was still down, yet she wasn't ready to easily give up on a business she suffered to bring up.However, Sharon had to forget about Aidan and focus on her life. She made up her mind never to go into a relationship with any man anytime soon.She aimed to raise her business by herself and nothing more. Not only that, but she was the only one her family was looking up to, and she had to work hard to provide for their needs. No, they become poor as they were back then.Immediately she was done dressing up, she grabbed her briefcase. As she was about to carry her phone from the bed, a call came in, making her pause for a moment.She stared at the phone screen for a few minutes as she was lost, who was calling her with a new line. It was an unknown caller who was ringing her phone.After allowing the phone to ring for a while, she finally picked up the caller, but she didn't say a word after picking up the call.“Good
“I'm expecting a visitor today. Ensure he doesn't come into the company with anything, except his phone. Make sure you investigate him thoroughly.” Sharon informed the company head guard, who was standing before her with his head bowed. “Yes, madam. You have nothing to worry about. We have everything under control.” the head guard promised her with a slight bow. “Good. I trust you.” Sharon nodded with a calm face. “Thank you, Madam.”Immediately they were done discussing, the head guard assisted her by receiving her briefcase. He followed her into the company.All her workers welcomed her as usual. After the greetings, the head guard followed her to her office as they took the same elevator.A few minutes later, Wayne arrived at the company. The head guard did just as Sharon had commanded him earlier. He recalled how one of his boss's companies was burnt down. So, he wouldn't want that to repeat itself again. Before
“Yes, what I said just now is nothing but the truth. I have been wanting to tell you this, but I was scared that my family and I would be in great trouble. So, I reserved it to myself.” Mrs. Larissa confessed with a sad expression.Silence reigned amidst them for what seemed like an eternity, as Sharon was in disbelief that she still had people who were working against her progress.However, the first person who popped up in her mind whom she thinks can easily do that to her was Kate and no one else.Sharon believed that only Kate was her enemy presently. Maybe Gregory, but she felt it would be hard for Gregory to do such a thing just because she refused to marry him.Nonetheless, she was fully aware that people stopped patronizing her products before she could get to know Gregory.“Hmm… ma'am, can you please tell us who this person is?” Wayne finally broke the silence among them.“Yes, Madam. We would be glad if you reveal to us who this is, please…” Sharon fell to her knees and plead
