8AM, Columbia Airport, Canada. Kora pulled her suitcase behind her, while rushing into the airport. She has overslept once again, if her manager heard she had overslept she would be getting an earful of scoldings which was inevitable.Luckily she had arranged her suit cases before today, or else her flight would probably have been cancelled once again. Her flight has been getting cancelled for the past few weeks, because of her lateness and unwillingness to go back to the US.While Kora was rushing and lost in thoughts, she failed to take notice of the people in front of her. The people made way for her as she passed, to avoid getting knocked down by her. Dante was busy on a phone call and unfocused when he bumped into someone. His phone fell out of his hands and his eyes turned grim. In that instance, he was wearing a face mask, so no one could see his grim expression.Kora realized she had accidentally bumped into someone, so she raised her head to apologize after picking up the phone that fell on the ground. “I am so sorry, I didn't mean to bump into you.”“I will take responsibility for any damage done to your phone. I sincerely apologize.” Kora muttered, dusting the phone and then handing it over to him. Her mouth opened slightly behind her mask when she saw the man's eyes. He was the one from the restaurant the previous day, oh God! How could you bump into him Kora, focus!! Kora scolded herself continuously in her mind.Dante c****d a brow when he realized it was the same girl from the restaurant, the previous day. He took his phone from her without saying anything, she could not possibly take responsibility if anything happened to his phone, after all, his devices were customized to his preference.“You do not have to worry about taking responsibility. Just look at where you are going and avoid bumping into others.” Dante said ready to leave from there.Kora nodded her head and thanked him, he was kind hearted. If it was someone else they would make fun of her and make her pay. FLIGHT 303, PASSENGERS GET TO YOUR SEATS NOW. Immediately Kora heard that, she bowed one more time and rushed out of there. Washington DC, US. NewsFlash: Supermodel Kora seen in the Washington Airport, as she steps into the country. Rumor has it that Miss Kora is here for a business deal with the largest Conglomerate.NewsFlash: Supermodel Kora is in the US. She is back home.NewsFlash: Miss Kora has returned home. She looks so different from last time. Kora scrolled through her i********: page while laying on the bed, the 4 hours flight had taken a toss on her heart. She had motion sickness and she had to put up with the scoldings from her Manager in the Airplane.She was finally in the US after 3 years. She was back to the place she used to call home, to her it no longer felt like home. It felt like a nightmare to her now. A nightmare she would never be able to forget. Her own parents had supported the very many who ruined her life, who hit her, who cheated on her and her dear sister who had been responsible for her near death experience got married to the same man.Kora had returned back home only to find out she was no longer welcomed in the place where she called home. They were never her parents, she was unable to blame them. She was just an orphan left behind with family. That was all she was. “Are you thinking about the past again?” Her manager asked, standing beside the bed. Kora chuckled and shook her head, the past had nothing on her anymore. She has survived the past that almost ruined her, the past that broke her, she was a survivor and no longer worried about it.“That's good then. You should only look at the positive things in life and focus on achieving your goals now. You have a dinner party to attend in 6 hours.”“Freshen up and get some sleep, the stylist and the make up artist will be here in 2 hours. You have just 2 hours to sleep.” Her manager said which earned her a nod from Kora. Hawt’s Conglomerate.At Hawt's Conglomerate located in the center of the city. A flint of cars stopped at the entrance and a bunch of men climbed down from it. Dante was among those men, he strode into the large building with 10 men walking behind him. The employees at the reception bowed as he walked past them. He was no longer wearing his face mask, his face was cold and expressionless. His eyes brewing a storm within them.“The meeting has started, Mr. Derrick instigated the shareholders to proceed without you. Your father just arrived as well. The old master, also just arrived. You are the last to arrive, master.” His assistant read as he rushed along with him.They got into the elevator with his assistant still reading out the memo and contents of the said meeting. “You have more than half of the shareholders on your side, your presence will boost their confidence.”“No one can stand against you. The position is yours.”“Hm.” Dante hummed, his face devoid of any worry or distress. He could turn the outcome of the votes even if someone else was elected as president, he had his ways and found it useless to pine over a little meeting such as thing. His assistant sighed behind him, it was only to Dante that everything seemed small, whereas it was not. Nothing was small.
