TORI' POV. I was exhausted. I've been cleaning and serving for about 7 hours straight without a break. I needed a bonus so I could pay Clyde, my landlord. I needed to pay rent for two months since I skipped paying it last month. Then I had to pay the bills. I also needed money for groccery since i was running short. I also needed money for Dahlia's upkeep. I needed a lot of money and I know being a waitress could never pay well enough for all this. I had to find another job as soon as possible. For now, I just have to work extra hours so I could get a raise in my salary. Working at RICO'S was good. At least I was guaranteed of free breakfast and lunch. This helped me to save enough money. Thank goodness my baby Dahlia wasn't a materialistic child. She understood at a young age that things never came to lazy people. I was blessed with the sweetest child ever. A smile made its way to my

I couldn't sleep at night. Dahlia's words kept ringing in my mind and I couldn't keep my tears from rolling down. Oh Ian, what did you do to me? "I just want to have a daddy like other kids."I knew that deep down, she felt the emptiness of not having a father. I was doing my best and God knows that. If only he was here. I refused to dwell in that fact. If he left, then it means he did not want anything to do with the baby.I wiped a tear that slipped out as I looked at Dahlia's sleeping form. Was my love not enough for her? The heavens know I'm doing my best for her. Maybe she needs more than I'm offering. With that thought in mind, I took out my old laptop and clicked on the job application I saw earlier. I. W. R Corporation. The upfront picture of the building was so large. I wonder if they would take me in as a worker in their café since their pay is so high. $1500 per month. It was go

IAN'S POV.________________________________________I looked at my watch, it was past 4 already and I still had a pile of documents I had to go through. Shit, Alyssa was going to be furious if I went home late. My intercom buzzed."Sir, Mr. Reynolds's here to see you." I heard Jenny, my P.A's voice.Oh Zach. I knew once he got here, we were gonna talk for a long time and I wasn't going to get much work done. "Yeah Jenny, let him in."My door burst open and I rolled my eye at his lack of respect. "You should knock next time.""I know Alyssa's at home so there's no need knocking since I know you won't be busy giving her some. "I laughed. When Zach came back from Germany last here, he needed to settle down. I thought he was going to have his own restaurant but he decided to work here in my companies kitchen. However, he cooked for important events round

TORI'S POV.So I followed Zach to his office quietly. Its was so big and spacious and nice. Black leather chairs and a coffee table. Ithought he's just a chef here.'.... I heard he's even cousins with the big boss.... 'I remembered Maria's voice. No doubt. He looks rich. But why would he choose to be a chef? Its not like I had aproblem with it. He just really looked like a model."Have a seat."I re

TORI'S POV"Do you have a reservation here sir?" A man asked as we stepped in. This place was the bomb. I can't remember the lasttime I stepped into a restaurant this beautiful.Uh, maybe four years ago with your family who abandoned you cause you got pregnant at 18?Great! Just great inner girl. Way to ruin the day. I was driven out of my reverie once Zach placed his palms on my backand we started moving to a table at the end of the room. At least we were going to have some privacy. I ignored thedisapproving stares I got from these rich people and continued walk
