Chapter 2

  • Taylor Portwalt
  • 2 years later..
  • "She what?!" I bursted at my secretary disbelief
  • "She canceled it" She repeated and I looked at the clothes in front of me
  • "Block her and never take her order again. She already canceled 5 times and made me re-do it again. I had enough" I said leaving my work and walked into my office. I took a deep breath and drank my coffee in one shot
  • "I had enough of her. I had enough" I said to myself and tried to calm myself up. I took my bag and walked out from my office
  • "Let's rest and wrap everything up for today!" I said to my employees. I got into the lift and leaned back. I have a lot of stress these days because of work. I have no rest and these days a lot of people are getting married and it pisses me off.
  • Couples were walking around, couples were getting married and here I am. Damn single!
  • Just my luck maybe
  • I got out from the lift and took my car key from the valet chauffeur. I needed a drive so bad, my work was piling and there's no end soon. So no vacation these days
  • I put a Despacito song on the speaker and jam in. I love this song and it makes my mood rise up immediately. I went for a drive and it's been awhile since I do this. There's nothing better than taking healing time alone. Just you..
  • I stopped as the red light lit up. I leaned back to my seat when suddenly the car behind me crash my car. My head hit the steering wheel because the crash was quite hard.
  • I took off my seatbelt and opened the car door. I walked out from the car and my head was so dizzy. I hit my steering wheel so hard.
  • I turned to see a bulky guy who crashed my car out from his car. His face was so intimidating and he looked at me like he's going to kill me or something. I walked to the back of my car and can't believe it's damage big time
  • Today is just my luck
  • "What are you going to do with this?" I asked and he looked at me glaring
  • "You're the one press the brake suddenly" He said and I raised my eyebrows
  • "I stopped my car 5 minutes ago and you blamed me?" I asked and started to get pissed. I put my hands on my waist glaring at him hard
  • "So you think I was making this up?" He bursted
  • "Let's check the CCTV you bulky ugly man" I hissed and he looked at me angrily
  • "It's completely your fault, you're still doubting it?" He bursted crazily and the police came in time. They cleared the street and I turned to the policeman.
  • "He crashed me, you can check the CCTV"
  • "Okay miss, calm down. What's your name miss?"
  • "Taylor Portwalt" I said still glaring at the man
  • "How about you sir?"
  • "Paul Sed" He answered
  • "So please tell us the complete story" I began telling him the story and the old bulky man told his. He's completely making up the story. I'm tired and can kill people this instant
  • "Check the CCTV sir" I said to the policeman and he nodded
  • "We'll check that" I smirked and the bulky man's face paled. The policeman left and suddenly the bulky man sighed
  • "Why do you lie?" I asked bravely
  • "Because I don't have money and my wife's in the hospital now" My eyes widen as he bursted out
  • "How can I trust you with that?" I asked and he pulled out his phone giving me his message with his son. I gasped seeing the text. His wife will have her ring replacement in her heart. She was waiting for him to arrive first. I sighed
  • "I don't have time" He begged at me and his face became more and more. He was flustered earlier and he was mad because he was thinking about his wife
  • "Taylor, What happened here?" I turned to the side and my eyes widen to see Christian standing there. What the heck is he doing here?
  • "Who are you?"
  • "Her fiance, I was eating inside that restaurant when I saw my fiance's car" Chris said to the bulky man. I looked at him disbelief
  • "I'm sorry" The bulky man said
  • "I will repay and do as the law said but please let me send my wife to have her surgery first" The bulky man said to me begging and I looked at him nodding
  • "Keep the car here and you can go" I said
  • "Taylor.. what?" Christian held the bulky man
  • "Let him go Christian, I'll explain you later" I pulled his hand from gripping the oldman
  • "I'm sorry and thank you!" He said to me and ranaway. The policeman ran to him and I held them. I told them the real story and one team of policeman decided to follow him
  • "How can you let him go?" Chris asked and I turned to him
  • "What are you doing here? Pretending to be my fiance? What the hell!" I asked and he raised his eyebrows
  • "I saw you from that restaurant. So I knew what happen when I saw your car"
  • "This is my business, so don't butt into my business" I said and I planned to talk to the police but Christian held my wrist
  • "Who are you?" The policeman asked
  • "Oh he's my fr-"
  • "Fiance" Christian cut and I turned to him in horror. The policeman nodded and he asked for my data to proceed with the case. After that I need to wait for the oldman to come back. I stood on the side and Christian stood beside me. I felt so uncomfortable about his presence
  • Especially after that night.. that we shared 2 years ago
  • "It's been 2 years, how are you?" Christian asked starting the conversation but I really don't want to have a conversation with him
  • "Just go, will you? This is my business" I said coldly to him but he didn't answered me nor walked away
  • "Still feisty and hate me huh? Even after that night?" He asked, smirking but he's face was not facing me. He looked straight as I looked at him disbelief
  • "What night? You're talking nonsense" I laughed it off
  • "Thought so.. You will pretend not to remember it" Damn it!
