"You want to do what?" Tom's hairstylist asked in surprise the moment Tom told him what he wanted. "You heard me. I want a more daring haircut. Something that gives off a bad boy vibe. And I also want you to dye my hair to a copper brown color," Tom repeated, making the man look at him as though he had gone crazy. Tom was probably the most gentleman he had ever worked for, and he had been barbing Tom's hair for more than ten years. Never in those ten years had Tom ever asked for something so…-

"Oh my God! Did I just worsen everything?" Lucy cried as she collapsed on her seat and took off her glasses before resting her head on the table. She was really trying hard not to sob. What the heck had happened in there? She had gone to see Mr Harry, not the CEO, so why had the CEO chosen to get involved in her business? Why had she allowed her big mouth put her in trouble? "Oh God! Please just rewind the time back to yesterday, I won't complain ever again, I promise." she prayed silently. She stood…

"Are you okay?" Harry asked, looking at Tom as though he was doubting his sanity. "Never felt better," Tom said with a grin as he stood up from his seat and walked over to the window to admire the beautiful view of the sea beyond. "Why do I find that so difficult to believe? You have been acting so out of character that I'm beginning to wonder if I need to call you a doctor," Harry said, making Tom's smile widen even more as he turned to look at his friend. "I have, haven't I?" "Come on Tom!…

Tom chuckled quietly, and mentally patted his back for coming up with such a brilliant idea. Why hadn't he thought of it earlier? Having her work as his personal assistant would enable him control her activities in his favour. That way 'Tom' would have the chance to take her out whenever he wanted to. He was sure both his siblings would be very proud of him if he told them about this new development. "Time to get my bad boy makeover!" Tom said, rubbing his hands together in excitement. He had spent…

"Someone older?" Tom repeated as he listened to her. What did she mean by someone older? Was she that uncomfortable around him? Without wasting more time, he quickly picked up his office phone and dialed Harry's office line. Harry glanced at his office phone when it started ringing, and he didn't need anyone to tell him it was Tom calling, "Give me a moment, it's the CEO," he explained before picking up the phone. "Hello sir!" "Hand her the phone, I want to speak with her," Tom said without…

Lucy tapped her pen on her desk impatiently as she tried to figure out what was bothering her and why she was unable to focus on the work in front of her. Thankfully, she didn't have to try too hard. The answer jumped at her, Tom. Of course it had to be Tom, and her reaction to his scent and exposed chest. Now that she knew the problem she had to figure out why she had reacted that way to him, as well as why she was feeling so unsettled by her reaction to him. This was of course the curse of an…

Lucy was surprised to see Tom already standing by the car the next morning. He had his left hand in his pocket, while leaning on the car with the right side of his body, and his right elbow was resting on top of the car. Seeing the way he was standing by the car, one would assume that he was the owner of the car, Lucy thought dryly. She noticed he was smiling and followed his gaze to see what was giving him so much pleasure, and sighed when she noticed two young girls who looked like they were in their…

Bryan had never felt so irritated or ill-tempered as he felt right now as he sat by his penthouse balcony, with a glass of whiskey in his hand while he just looked ahead of him. They had returned from Heden after his shoot earlier that day, so he was back to his home in Sogal, another part of the country. He couldn't understand why Sonia had disappeared without a trace, without even giving him a chance to end things officially. He couldn't believe the number of congratulatory calls he had received…

Neither Tom nor Lucy said a word as Tom drove the car out of the garage and down the street. He had no idea where he was driving to since he wasn't very familiar with the environment, so he just kept his eyes on the road so he wouldn't miss either a pharmacy shop or a grocery store. "So why haven't you eaten all day?" Tom asked, trying to break the silence in the car. "I got carried away with work at the office. Only just realized now that I was yet to even have anything apart from coffee," Lucy…

Lucy yawned as she lay on her sofa reading Sonia's last published novel and jotting down areas she felt Sonia needed to work on. She took off her glasses and walked over to her refrigerator to find something to chew on, but remembered she had nothing yet. She was yet to stock her house, and she doubted she would be able to do that until weekend. She suddenly realized she had had nothing to eat all day when her stomach rumbled. She had been about leaving for lunch earlier when her boss had shown up in…
