The man who drove the car walked by my side, holding a gun in his hand, while the other two walked behind us. I was careful not to look at my back because I might appear suspicious. I didn’t want to get hurt. However, I let my eyes register the surroundings' landmarks hoping that I could find a way to get out of here. However, all I could see were tall shrubs and trees.The man then opened the door, and an elegant interior greeted my eyes. It didn’t match the outer façade at all. The design looked outdated, and the paint had already faded that the house looked deserted. Aside from that, the iron gate that was painted with black looked rusted. The screeching sound as it opened even irritated me, making me cover my ears.I let my eyes wander off to the entire living room. It had all the necessary appliances and furniture. And it all looked new! Aside from that, the room was clean, and everything was neatly arranged.“Bring her to the room!

I felt my strength leaving me as I felt the cold metal in my temple. I could not understand what was going on, but what came to my mind was that these men were probably President Ric's hired men."What do you what from us?" I glared at the man who was poking his gun at me.I then rolled my eyes sideways to peer at the driver, wanting to see his reaction. I was thinking he was an accomplice, sending me into a kidnap-for-ransom set-up. However, I got surprised. The driver was shivering in fear, his color draining from his face."Just follow us silently if you don't want to get hurt." "Who is the mastermind behind this?" I bravely asked, mustering all the courage I could get to maintain a sound mind. I pretended unintimidated."Keep your mouth shut. You won't get an answer anyway," the man roared in my ear as I stepped out of the car; his pungent smell turned my guts inside out.I ran to the side of the street as I was about to thro

I stared at Eric and tried to read what's in his mind. Is he making all these efforts to come after me because of the business? "Don't misunderstand me, dear. I don't care about your business, especially that it comes from the hands of a rival. For me, whatever he holds brings bad luck to me. I admit, I wanted to collaborate with him in the past but not anymore this time."I smirked. How could he accuse Sean of bringing bad luck? TAG wouldn't be this big without him. "Don't say that. I have deeper reasons why I broke off with Sean. My family owes Sean the success of the business. If it were not for him, TAG Corporation wouldn't go this far. And what right do you have to say that he's bringing bad luck?""It's my belief and opinion. And everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion, aren't we? Nothing would ever change this impression I have on him."I shrugged my shoulders and dismissed the topic. Th

"Eric, why are you here?" The embarrassment I felt must have prevailed over my surprise of seeing him again. And perhaps, it marked on the sudden change of my expression. "To see you, of course," he answered, smiling. Something I never remembered when I was still with him. The more I had come to believe that I was his mere sex toy because I had never been with anyone else. Eric was highly meticulous, and he couldn't just do sex with anyone he came across with. I am sure that every woman he slept with was all untouched by other men yet, just like my best friend. He may have flirted with lots of women, especially during social gatherings, but that was all because he wanted to boost his pride. But those he brought to his bed must be all inexperienced. Why am I sure about that? It was because he made me swear I was telling the truth during that first night I gave myself to him. He couldn't just suck the nectar between a woman's leg if

"I'll do the same," said the other one, and this declaration hit everyone's mind like a domino effect."Unless Mr. Grey assures us in person, I couldn't allow gambling our investor's interest on some newbie."I felt like breaking down upon their distrust of me, but I could not blame them. Even if my grandfather or Sean may be the dominant controlling shareholder, they knew I was a doctor and had not been into any business before. These people were wise and experienced business magnates--some were even shareholders--and they were elected to see the company investors' overall interest."Calm down, everyone!" Atty. Evarez spoke, silencing the clamor that had started to break out. "It seems everyone has got the wrong impression. Dr. Red is here with us as someone who would go hand in hand with Mr. Grey. Is it not a fact, ladies and gentlemen, that when a man falls in love and gets his inspiration, he gets more efficient?""You're right, Atty. Evarez, but

I entered the room with my heartbeats already on my throat. Gathering the kind of courage I never knew before, I wore a half-smile on my lips as I beat the board of directors' intimidating stares with my outward confidence. I realize how silly I was. The things these people do were beyond my comprehension. Give me surgical blades and other sets; I might have the full confidence to cut into a human's head and solve a problem, but not with these kinds of people who could kill you with their lethal gaze. The lawyer stood up while I was yet halfway to my seat. He bowed down with a polite smile, and I got surprised. It was only yesterday when he got so angry that he looked like a beast, ready to devour me. "Good morning, Dr. Grey!" he said while ushering me to my seat. He then pulled a chair next to him and waited for me to settle down before he left. He then stood at the edge of the long table and cleared his throat before he spoke.
