"Chill, Jeysi. I'm on my way."

I immediately ended the call and didn't even wait for his response. He was still angry and calling. I was drunk and wasted last night, so I forgot about our sudden appointment for today.

I looked back and forth at the road and my watch. There are only a few minutes left before the meeting begins. The car is moving too slowly because of the traffic.

I opened my small pouch and took some of my cosmetics. I grabbed the opportunity to apply some of it to fix myself. I need to look glamorous and presentable in front of our clients.

After a few minutes, the traffic moved forward. I had already passed Balintawak, so the flow of vehicles was light.

The security guard, and some of the employees, greeted me when I arrived at Phoenix Quantum. It is one of the top leading Engineering Firms in the Philippines. I smiled and greeted them back before heading straight into the conference room.

I was wearing my corporate attire, a black velvet diamanté belt blazer dress paired with sharp black stilettos, with matching jewelry to complete the look. I confidently entered the room.

Thank God they haven't started yet.

"Sorry, I'm late," I apologized as they shifted their gaze toward mine.

The smile on my lips quickly disappeared, my breathing seemed to stop for a while, and I could also feel my knees shaking.

"It was nice seeing you again, Tatiana."

I saw a familiar building of a man and a woman. Ghosts that are part of my past that I never expected nor dreamed of meeting again. It gave me shivers, but I still managed to compose myself.

"It was nice seeing the two of you again, Sister." I paused for a while, then gave them my sweetest smile before shifting my gaze to the man sitting beside her. "Leo."

It seems like they were enjoying this game, pretending that nothing happened in the past.

The sound of my stilettos echoed throughout the entire room. I am confident in every step I take because confidence is the most beautiful and sexiest thing a woman can wear.

In this little reunion of ours, I realized one thing.

I was in too hurry before, so I got hurt and made a mistake. But one thing is for sure; I will avoid repeating the same mistake. No one can fool me or hurt me again. Never again!

Mark my words because I am now Engineer Tatiana Cara Corsanes. Stronger, fiercer, and bolder.
