” I don’t know what you’re talking about, No one told me about that before I I agreed to help you” She stuttered and I scoffed.
” Had it been that you listened to me, This shouldn’t have happened, Your own job there is to make Maynard fall in love with you after signing the contract, Then, Magnolia won’t have any choice than to run to me, Now, she hat*es me more than anyone on earth, All thanks to you”
” You should have told me then, It’s my own concern as well, Don’t think I went to Alvarez company to help you only, I went there to fufill my own missions because I can’t afford to lose everything at the end of the day, There’s no assurance that Maynard is going to survive it ”
” I’m so proud of you, Don’t think once you get bursted, You can come back here in the company, I’m now the master of the family, You should stay at the Alvarez company as from now on, I don’t need your help anymore “I snapped before walking out of the house.
Immediately I stepped into the car, I dismissed the driver immediately and tears rushed down from my cheeks.
Why did this has to happen to me?
I made sure I satisfy all my family members and friends as well, Not until Alena came to the picture.
She ruined me.
She made me lose Magnolia.
Geez!, I hope I will be able to get back to my feet after this.
Maybe I should leave Magnolia for now and let her rest.

MAGNOLIA POV
After sleeping for the rest of the day, I woke up around midnight with the sudden urge to vomit, I’ve been losing weight these days due to my excess vomitting and my boobs are becoming fuller and heavier making me so uncomfortable.
I love it when it was moderate.
After cleaning and washing my mouthe and face, I rushed to the kitch to find something to eat due to how I was starving.
After eating, I retired back to the bed to sleep again.
THE NEXT MORNING ~
Getting to the office, I met Zoe waiting for me at the entrance.
” Hi”I mumbled and dropped my bag of food and cookies on the floor and tried walking pass her but she pushed me back violently.
” You said hi to your boss?, How insolent of you?.”She rasped and I sighed.
” What do you want from me?, What have I don wrong this time around? ”
” You came late, You were five minutes late ”
” I was sick, I purged the whole night, I couldn’t sleep “I lied before walking away, She rushed up to me and pull my hair.
” First of all, It’s very rude of you to talk to your boss without making use of formalities, I’m now your boss, The new secretary of the company, You mustn’t come late to work as from now on and don’t hi me”She scmrssed frustrated and I chuckled, Ignoring the pains on my scalp.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
I arranged my full hair back neatly and bowed before walking away, She stopped me again.
Now, I’m tired and pissed off.
What does she want?
” You won’t say anything? “She asked breathing heavily and I wiped my sweat.
” What did you want me to say, I don’t want you to hold my words, You might report me to your boss that I disrespected you, I don’t want to lose my job ”
” You’re such a joker, Magnolia, There’s no way you won’t get sacked here “I stared directly into her eyes and they portrayed a difference emotion on her face.
The eyes look soft, gleaming, Like she was about to cry.
I made her drop the hands and smiled.
” You should learn how to be more cruel than this, It doesn’t fit your beautiful face, This is not you Zoe, I hoped you wake up from your dreams and get yourself out of this mess before it gets too late ”
” What do…”
” Have a nice day”I said softly before walking out of her.
After the day’s work, Fleur called several times but I refused to pick it up, Instead, I started trying Maynard number but I realized he blocked me already, I went to his verified Instagram account but it has been locked and disabled, u couldn’t send him any message, I sent him a request to scan his QR code on WeChat but his account is deactivated already.
I sobbed as I walked down the street.
What’s happened to him?
I hope he’s fine.
I decided to go to his penthouse.
I quickly called the cab, After some minutes, I arrived at the penthouse and stepped down the car, I paid him his money and ran towards the gate.
After knocking for some minutes, The gateman opened the gate and beamed.
” Hey, Are you fine? “He asked and I nodded.
” Is anyone at home?”
” Yes, Maynard’s Dad is at home, The old master and…”
” Don’t worry, I just want to talk to him “I rushed my words before running to the house.
Getting there, I opened the door and panted, Then, I raised my haid, Surprisingly, Brea was there too, With the old master.
What’s she doing here?
I thought Maynard restricted her from coming here?
” Who are you and what are you doing here?.”The man asked authoratively and I forced a smile.
Brea sat beside him glaring at me making me cringe.
” I’m Maynard’s former secretary, I came here to ask of his well being, I was unable to reach him ”
” But he just talked to me just now?.”He asked trying to pick his phone again but Brea stopped him.
” You don’t need to worry yourself, I’m sure he blocked her because of some reasons, As you can see, She’s a pest who knows nothing than to chase me who aren’t in their calibre, Maynard will be fine”
” But he told me he will get across to me, After announcing to us that he will go on a break about his Leukemia treatment, Why’s he not picking his calls? ”
” Leu… What? “He yelled and started gasping for breath.
Oh God, I think Maynard didn’t inform him about it.
Brea stood up immediately and walked up to me, She gave me a deafening slap making the whole world stood still.
What?!
” See what you’ve caused!, You almosg kil*led my Husband”
” I didn’t know ”
” Get out of here, I mustn’t see you around my son anymore “The man said in between deep breath, Holding his chest tightly.
” I’m sorry “I sobbed.
Brea grabbed me and pushed me out of the house immediately.
