CHAPTER ONE:

1007 Words
"Mr Blackwood, I love you!" A woman's voice echoed in the partially empty parking lot, her voice echoing loud and clear that Olivia almost dropped the files in her hands, startled. She had been on her way to the elevator to get into the building when it seemed she had stumbled upon a confession scene. But who would confess to someone in a parking lot?? "I'm serious this time," the woman continued, "I know what we have is just physical but I've fallen in love with you, just give me a chance." Olivia paused as she waited, she knew it was wrong to listen to this conversation but she also felt it would be awkward to walk past and interrupt so she stood still behind a pillar and waited. She shouldn't have done that but, slight curiosity overwhelmed her. Who was this person anyway? The woman's voice did not sound familiar to Olivia. This was a company building and usually, any body who uses this parking lot is either an employee, or a client and Olivia had worked here long enough to know who was who and she didn't recognize this woman. Even if it was a new employee or client, why would the person be confessing in a parking lot and who was she confessing to? Curiosity plagued Olivia as she stood there pondering, right until she heard a response. "Pardon?" Olivia heard the cold and husky voice of the man she knew so well and she froze instantly. "Oh, my—" she instantly shushed herself. Covering her mouth with her hand. This man… "What did you just say?" The man's voice came again and for a second or two Olivia was sure he was talking to her but she just took a deep breath, gulped and listened. "You heard me. I love you, Ethan Blackwood!!" Oh, wow. This was possibly the most uncomfortable situations Olivia had ever been in. If she had known she would have turned back the minute she heard the woman's voice. Now she's force to stay as quietly as she could and listen to some woman confess feelings to her boss. Ethan Blackwood. "Yeah I heard you the first time Clara, and I just wanted to confirm the rubbish I heard." The man replied, his voice deepening with every syllable, "Anyway, is that all? I have a meeting in 5." Olivia gasped, biting her lips again. Geez, her boss was so cold! What a response.. "Huh?" The woman was in disbelief as well. "Ethan—" "Listen to me, Clara Blanca," he interrupted with an annoyed sigh, "I don't have time for this. I don't even want to know what type of s**t you've been smoking to make you spout all this nonsense." "But—" "But nothing, we had a great time this past two months and you just had to ruin it with this. Anyway, we're done." There was a long pause this time. And in this period of time Olivia's mind was going back to the name that was mentioned… Clara Blanca… Her blue eyes brightened instantly at the realization. No way! Clara Blanca…THE Clara Blanca, the famous model and world famous celebrity…professing love in a parking lot and literally begging to be loved back. This was just…wow. Definitely not something you see everyday. Olivia wished she the woman's face right now but she didn't have to wait for long. The silence followed a loud and piercing cry that made Olivia quickly drop the things she was carrying so she could cover her ears. Clara Blanca was seen on the ground, rolling and crying and Olivia looked on in disbelief. Was this the same celebrity or could this be some look alike? This.. she's throwing a tantrum? How embarrassing! "Why, Ethan?? Whyyy?" she screamed, wailing. "Is it wrong to love you? I just want to love you!" Olivia saw that she was wearing an expensive looking dress that was now ruined and covered in dirt from the way she was throwing herself on the dusty and possibly dirty parking lot floor. Her hair which was in it's signature high ponytail was also covered in dirt and looking unbrushed. The next thing that happened, a huge man who was obviously a body guard rushed towards her and picked her from the floor as she continued to sob and cry. He carried her to a black SUV that just pulled up and once she was inside, still sobbing, he got in as well and the car drove away. After the car left, the whole parking lot was filled with silence again. The only sound probably coming from Olivia who wondered what she was going to fo now. Blinking rapidly in disbelief, Olivia wasn't sure if what she just witnessed truely happened, Clara Blanca?? Wow! The entire entertainment world would be shaken if they found out about this! She was still giving it some thoughts as she bent down to slowly pick up the things she dropped. Glad they none of them had noticed the sound of it dropping on the floor, when a pair of large feet beneath expensive leather shoes appeared in front of her. "Morning, Miss Vercelli." A deep and slightly amused voice greeted. Olivia wanted to stay there, she didn't want to look up. How did he? No…maybe it wasn't him. She gulped, biting her lips. Embarrassment had begun to creep up her cheeks and it started to feel warm and turn red, fear and panic started to build up slowly in her chest at the fact that she might just be in trouble. Olivia froze as her boss as she tried to steady her breathing. God…this was so embarrassing! She should have trusted her instinct and walked past. But her instinct had told her to stay! And listen! "Oh..no.." she was going to be labeled and eavesdropper for the rest of her life. She couldn't even look up and kept fumbling with what she wanted to pick, causing it to fall over and over again.
