Chapter 1 Crap

'You bloody, daft, maniac!' Debbie screamed, in her head though. She wasn't ready just yet to loose this job. After all her elder sister begged Mrs Sandra, her boss to accept her for the fourth time this month.

'Derby, table 10 have been waiting for hours for someone to take their order!', Sandra yelled

'I hired bloody humans to work not to stare around at my fascinating collection of furniture' Sandra added with an unmissable flick of her hair.

'It's Debbie you witch!' Debbie screamed once again in her head.

'Yes ma'am, I'll be right with them' she managed to say with a painted on smile.

'Hey, welcome to Sassy Crib what can I get you tonight?' Debbie said in her routine voice, notepad in hand.

'Oh missy I would love to get some sparkling water for a start...

'Oh I need wine...

'Ah maybe just water would be ok...

'But you guys' famous fruit drink combo doesn't sound that bad...'

The girlfriend trio kept going on and on.

'No I can't handle this nomore, fuck it!'

'Ehm missy maybe you and your toothpick build of friends can take your fucking indecisive party and hop outta here before I shove this notebook up your throats!'

Debbie woke up in cold sweat, of course she was cold, her blanket had been kicked out of the bed.

'The hell' she thought as she walked to the bathroom to splash her face.

'This job is definitely testing my mental balance' she lamented. She came back to bed, it was just past two in the morning.

She lay in bed unblinking. She picked up her phone and dialed the only person that won't choke her for disturbance.

'It's getting worse' 'I might become a serial killer soon' she lamented to Jason, her best friend through the phone.

'Good morning to you, Deb' he said dryly.

'I'm loosing it' she cried

'Ughh, I was working you know' he said

'You can't desert me, you love me' she said cheekily

'Love doesn't exist, it's just an infatuation between two lifeforms' Jason said matter-of-factly. They both laughed. She had known Jason for years, he was the most boring book worm she had ever met. He's quite handsome and has a good body build, such a shame he can't get his head out of the books to have fun.

'What about Hannah, don't you love her?' Debbie questioned cheerily

'This isn't the reason you called is it? If it is, goodbye have a nice rest' he retorted

'Awwwwwww, so you do have feelings for her' she cooed.

'Ending the call now, see you' he said

'Love you too' she continued to tease him. He ended the call and she laughed heartily. Just like that the nightmare was forgotten and replaced by hunger.

'Dorathy will so kill me when she finds out' Debbie whispered to her self as she tiptoed into the kitchen.

'Mmmh' she groaned in contentment as she dug into a side of the chocolate cake her sister made for her girls get together later in the day.

'When you do eat this cake because I know you can't just help yourself, I will throw you out into the streets!' Debbie recalled as she put the remaining cake back into the fridge.

'I only took a small piece' she wondered in her head as she tiptoed back to bed.

Elodie took a deep breath and knocked, the sound echoing in the quiet corridor. A moment of silence passed, broken only by the pounding of her heart. Finally, the door snicked open, revealing a surprised Dashiell. 'Can't you see the Do Not Disturb sign? We don't want-' His initial frown quickly morphed into confusion at the sight of his wife. 'What are you doing here?' he demanded. 'Your girlfriend invited me,' Elodie replied, her voice laced with icy calm. She tried to peer past him, but his broad frame blocked the view. A saccharine voice chimed in from within the room. 'Elodie? Oh dear, we didn't mean for you to find out this way. It's just that-' Elodie cut her short. 'Oh please, Selene. Spare me the fake apologies. You wouldn't have sent me all those texts if you didn't want me to know.' Dashiell shifted uncomfortably, his face a mask of annoyance. 'What texts?' Elodie stepped past him, taking in the luxurious suite with a sardonic smile. The king-sized bed, the scattered rose petals, the lingering scent of sex – it all painted a vivid picture of their betrayal. She looked up at Dashiell, her gaze unwavering. 'I want a divorce.' ****** Dashiell lived a life of luxury, surrounded by the best things money could buy. But when a car accident left him vulnerable, he met Elodie, a seemingly ordinary woman who nursed him back to health. Mistaking her for just another employee, Dashiell entered into a loveless marriage with her solely for convenience. However, fate had a different script in store. Elodie, the 'ordinary nurse,' held a secret more precious than any diamond: she was the sole heiress to Northstar, a vast and powerful enterprise. Unaware of her true identity, Dashiell cast her aside when his ex-girlfriend returned, leaving Elodie humiliated. But Elodie was not one to be easily broken. She shed the facade of the meek nurse, reclaiming her rightful inheritance and stepping into the role of Northstar's CEO. Now, the woman Dashiell discarded was the one holding the reins of power. As Elodie thrives in her new role, Dashiell is consumed by regret. He finally sees Elodie for the extraordinary woman she truly is, realising the depth of his mistake. But will his remorse be enough to win back the heart he so carelessly discarded?
