The important heads of sectors in West Engineering Company held their bi-annual meeting, where they discussed matters of importance to the company's growth, their journey through the successes and "minimal successes," as Max termed their failures, and proffered solutions for a better six months of production.The past six months had been incredible, Max mused.The company had recorded huge conquests, such as establishing a sister branch, expanding its customer base, and surpassing its revenue target.The goal for the West Engineering Company over the next six months was a backbreaking one. They had to complete the 24-storey plaza they had been awarded in just five months.The meeting that morning revolved around this crucial topic, with everyone brainstorming and strategizing to ensure success.Shelly busily took notes as the team engaged in a friendly debate, with Max intently listening to the different views being shared.

"Barbie!"The door creaked open as a large bouquet of flowers barged in before the owner of the voice made her way in with a wry smile on her face. The aroma that assaulted her nostrils when she finally made her way into the house let her know the direction to take.Chloe's hair was haphazardly tied in a bun, and a blue plaid apron draped over her crop top and denim shorts.She lifted her eyes from the sausage sizzling in the pan and saw Emma walking into the kitchen, her head hidden behind a large bouquet of blooms.She made a quiet scoff and went back to monitoring the cylindrical-shaped meat."I'm so sorry, Chloe," a voice came from behind the flowers. "Can you forgive me?"Chloe focused on the sizzling pan before her, ignoring Emma's presence in the kitchen. Emma had a habit of throwing in a half-hearted apology whenever she returned home after being away for days, but Chloe wasn't falling for it this time. If anything, Emma should be apologizing to her for the near-humiliation sh

Chloe strode confidently in her stylish silver heels, a perfect match for the dark blush pink robe draped over her black crop top tucked into a pair of high-waisted black Aphrodite trousers. The trouser hugged her perfect curves, adding a touch of elegance to her already stylish outfit.Kayla, her PA, walked behind her with calm strides, keeping Chloe updated on the latest happenings at Girly Lux that occurred overnight. Most of the information would have been leaked by Ollie if she wasn't currently unavailable due to an overdue illness. Ollie had been pushing herself to be at the top of her game in the company, her drive, and ambition unmatched. And her hard work had paid off in less than a year. However, her relentless dedication and pursuit of success had taken a toll on her body, and now she was forced to take a step back and focus on her health."The representative from the reality TV show called, asking if you could make it to the studio this weekend."Chloe bobbed her head and

Chloe's memory teased her with fragments of familiarity as she tried to recall where she had heard the name before. She searched her memory for a face, a place, or even a voice that could help her remember the context in which she heard the name."Let him in," she said.Kayla nodded, and soon the door swung open, revealing a familiar figure draped in a sophisticated gray tuxedo suit that hugged his broad shoulders and tall frame.A charming smile spread slightly across his face.As soon as Chloe caught a glimpse of his face, her memory didn't fail her, as she recognized the man who had saved her from the dark, lonely streets the other night and offered her a bed to sleep in.She had the time to study his face now - that morning, at his beautiful house, she had been too embarrassed to take more than a glimpse of his faceShe observed him intently, taking in every detail of his face like an artist painting a masterpiece. His face was carved with intricate details and chiseled to perfect

A storm brewed in Chloe's eyes as she gazed up at Kylian, her expression a tempest of anger and hurt.Kylian didn't notice the sour expression on her face. All he thought about was that Chloe had come to see him. He began to descend the stairs. "Chl-"Chloe didn't let him finish. "I'm just here to get my things. I'll be gone before you know it."Chloe could tell that Kylian was having a good time without her. The empty bottle and two wine cups resting on the bar were a glaring example. And his hastily buttoned shirt alerted her that his partner was in the room she was heading for.She brushed past him, wounded by how much he was moving on after instigating a lie so he could dissolve their marriage.Chloe deemed herself a strong woman. But she wasn't completely healed from the deep wound Kylian had caused in her heart when he served her divorce papers. As she clambered the stairs, she fought her heart from aching and braced herself for whatever she would meet in the room.Kylian had fo

Chloe felt a flutter in her chest as Max appeared at her doorstep, exuding effortless charm and style. His striped polo shirt seemed to cling to his well-defined chest, hinting at the strength hidden underneath, and his jeans perfectly complemented his casual yet attractive appearance. Despite his informal attire, he looked incredibly dashing, and Chloe couldn't help but feel a warm flutter in her stomach.Chloe, unprepared and initially hesitant to leave the comfort of her home, adorned a simple dress that accentuated her natural beauty, and gathered her hair into a haphazard bun - her signature look for lounging at home.Her eyes shifted from Max’s warm face to the small parcel in his hand. When he saw that she was looking at it, he raised it. "Chocolate ice cream," he said. "It was hard to guess the flavor you’d like, but I know every lady loves chocolate."Chloe wasn’t a lover of chocolate or ice cream, but she smiled her thanks. If ever she wanted a cup of ice cream, she would pi

Upon waking up, Chloe's mind immediately turned to the positive memories of her evening with Max, giving her a small glimmer of hope amidst her shattered dreams.Starting again was not going to be easy, but she was ready to do everything to recreate her designs just in time for the audition, which was a few weeks away.The auditioning was going to be a three-day program aimed at sifting through those who would be qualified to make it into the fashion display. It was going to be Chloe’s first time, and she was optimistic about being selected.It would be the milestone Girly Lux needed to seep further into the international market and win the hearts of investors.Her eyes moved to the brown envelope resting on the stool beside her bed, and she reached for it. When she opened it, she took out the photographs that the envelope carried. She had stumbled upon it the previous day at Kylian’s house. The first time she had seen the pictures, she flung them at Kylian, wishing not to see them ag

The scenery was breathtakingly beautiful as if it had been painted by a master artist. The air was alive with the sweet melody of birds singing in the valley, and the soft breeze caressed Chloe's cheeks. If she closed her eyes and focused, she could hear the gentle murmur of a stream as it flowed between the two towering cliffs.Chloe was dressed for adventure, wearing practical three-quarter khaki shorts and a fitted black tank top that showed off her toned arms. Her brown hair was pulled back into a loose ponytail, and she wore a sweatband around her forehead to keep her hair out of her face. She carried a hydration waist pack around her waist, the liter bottle almost empty after just thirty minutes of hiking.Max walked beside her, keeping up with her pace as they silently climbed the summit of the mountain. Ollie was a few meters down and had given up on the quest to get to the summit, attributing her inability to her convalescing state.Chloe stared at the terrain from the highes
