Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 26

Her eyes were wide and scared; her lips trembled, her hands shook as she stared into her lover’s eyes.

‘Are you sure about this? Think again’ Trudy said to him.

‘I am done thinking and this is all you have to do if you really love me’ Nathan handed her the vial.

‘Do you know what you’re saying? We could get into big trouble if we’re caught doing this’ Trudy declined, she was terribly scared.

‘We wouldn’t if you play your part well; do you want to help me get Beecroft or not’?

Nathan was getting impatient.

‘Of course, I want you to get it but he is still your brother, don’t you think we’re going too far’? Trudy was very uncomfortable with Nathan’s plan.

She had set Greg up many times, spiked his drink and took snapshots of him which Nathan leaked to the media but this? What he was suggesting was dangerous.

‘Do you love me’? Nathan asked.

‘Yes. Yes I do’ Trudy nodded vehemently.

‘If you don’t do this, then it’s over between us and I mean it’ Nathan raised the vial once again.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she stared at him and then at the vial; she loved Nathan to let him go; he was her obsession, no other man could love her or f--k her the way Nathan did. He was her drug, her soul mate, a mix of everything. In him she found completion.

‘I’ll do it’ she cried and took the vial.

‘Good. Get to work’

She had spent one her dressing up for work with Alex in full control of everything; from her hair, to her dress, to her lipstick color and her shoes.

‘Can I look at the mirror now’? Amanda was getting impatient.

‘Not yet, almost done, your curls are stubborn, I need to straighten them’ Alex combed through her thick mane.

‘Remind me again why you aren’t a beautician’? Amanda said to her friend whose creative talent was more than anyone could ask for.

Alex could wear a ribbon and make it look like a crown; she could wear a boot and make it look like Cinderella’s slippers. She was unique and classy.

‘Now you’re free to look’ Alex showed her the mirror.

Amanda stared at the mirror speechless; she swallowed a lump of unbelief that settled in her throat; she looked completely changed. She was a different person now, almost like Wendy.

‘Thank me later, I have to go now’ Alex placed a kiss on her hair.

‘Wait, are you okay’? Amanda had known Alex for a long time, she knew what irked her, what humored her, what made her laugh or cry; something was definitely off.

‘I am fine Mandy, see you later’ she waved and rushed out of the house.

‘Bye’ Amanda waved back and returned to staring at her gorgeous reflection.

‘Time to go’ she rose on her feet.

‘You’re such an angel, my beautiful darling’ her mother’s words gave her confidence.

‘Thanks, wish me luck on my first day’ she kissed her mother.

‘You are all the luck that you need’ the woman couldn’t tear her eyes off her beautiful daughter.

‘Bye Mom’ Amanda waved at her and rushed outside.

She arrived the Software empire minutes later; today was really a different day for Amanda. As she stepped into the elevator, she noticed the way guys gawked at her, they were practically ogling her and she was loving it.

‘Good morning Gwen’ Amanda rushed out towards her new friend.

‘Is that you or am I dreaming’? Gwen’s jaw fell open. She had known the girl had beauty in her, she was just too afraid to show it.

‘The very same me’ Amanda smiled confidently, she couldn’t wait to set her eyes on her boss or his girlfriend who had felt on top of the world.

‘So, give me tips on how to work this job’ she asked Gwen.

‘I don’t know Mandy, I can’t really say how your relationship with him would be like; Holly wasn’t that dedicated to her job and that brought out the monster in him’ Gwen started.

‘The monster’? She almost laughed at the description.

‘Yea. He is a yeller, so get ready. Some days he could be absolutely impossible to please; you know what? Just do your best honey, put in a 100% at what you do. He admires hard work; I still feel that’s what drew him to Wendy’ Gwen explained.

‘She’s hardworking’? Amanda lifted a brow in astonishment.

‘Sure, go in now, he arrived ten minutes ago’ Gwen ushered her towards his office.

‘Okay’ Amanda drew in a breath, reminding herself that she was all the luck that she needed.
