Chapter 1

EPOV

"IT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH!" Personally, I do not understand how someone who is supposed to be a genius can be so fucking stupid, really.

"I'm sorry Sir, we didn't realise the problem until it was too late." The idiot had the balls to defend his idiocy, unbelievable does he not realise that what he did has ended in catastrophic results for this company?

"Sorry? You are sorry? Your sorry means jack shit right now Newton; because of your monumental mistake, we have lost 70 million dollars! Do you have 70 million dollars Newton? Because now my company is missing it. If you do not come up with a solution I swear to god I will through you out of my office window!" Ok I realise my rational side has already jumped ship since my office is one the 89th floor, but you can understand my anger.

"I wi-ill tr-try si-ir, pl-ea-ease do-don't fi-ire me-e!" I could bet money he was seconds from pissing himself. Good. I was beyond pissed. I leave for two days and they already lost 70 million dollars, 70 MILLION. Do they think I piss it out my hole? I have spent the last 7 years building this company up from the ground with nothing and now I am the CEO of an international company worth billions. I didn't get here singing feckin' songs, I worked hard. Now standing here at the top, I cannot help but think if all this crap is worth it. I gave up everything to get here; a relationship, family, a life. I haven't been to see my parents in two years. Sure, I talk to them often but it's not the same.

Looking up at Newton now, I can't help but be jealous, he works here and is one of my best financial managers and still manages to have a family and a life; and he is only 23. I know I am all talk but sometimes fear is good. He needs to learn. Sighing deeply I look at him stance, quivering at the thought of me firing him. I won't but he has to be taught.

"Just fix this, but because of this I'm taking 30 dollars an hour off your pay until you deem yourself capable. I can't have this happen if I have to leave again. You can go now Newton." I swear I could nearly see dust as he flew out of my office. I shouldn't be surprised, everyone fears me here.

"CULLEN!"

Except one person.

With a crash the door flies open and standing in the doorway is my design manager, a five foot nothing, black-haired demon, also known as my sister; Alice.

"Yes, dear sister. What can I do for you? Run out of colour pattern?" I said with a sigh and turning back to my work, this new account is going to annoy me.

"Don't patronise me Edward, first I just saw Mike run out of here like his ass was on fire and second-" Suddenly and huge thwack resounds around the room, it took me a second realise it was her hand across the side of my head. Then I felt the pain.

"OW! What the hell you evil little shit! What was that for?" I exclaimed rubbing my head, shit that hurt.

"You fucking deserved it! What is this I hear that you AGAIN turned down the request to come home? Mom is heartbroken, and Emmet wants to kick your ass for making her cry!" I looked up sharply at her. Shit! I never wanted to make her cry.

"Shit, look I do want to go but I-"

"Don't you 'but' me Edward Anthony Masen Cullen! Why? Why can't you just be with your family for a day?! Please Edward just this once can you come and see your family?"

"Ali, I would but I have to work" Looking at her I know she knows how shit of an excuse that is but I can't go. How awful is that; you don't even know how to act around my own family anymore, Jesus I'm pathetic.

"Rose is pregnant." Alice says suddenly which makes me nearly fall out of my chair.

"What?" Very intelligent response I tell ya.

"She and Em just found out. So, what about now, do you want to come to celebrate the fact your brother is going to become a father? Or if you want to keep it all about you-"I rolled my eyes"-you can celebrate the fact that you're going to be an uncle. Please Edward, I haven't seen them in months and I want them to meet Jasper. I want you there, please" An angry Alice I can deal with but a sad, pleading one I can't.

"Ok Alice I'll come but-"then the screaming began, I'd love if she would let me finish a sentence but no.

She jumped on me and planted my face in kisses, saying thank in between each one. Next thing the door opened.

"You know boss, it's a good thing you brothers with my girlfriend or I would have to risk my job and kick your ass." Laughing I looked up at Jasper watching us in amusement, with a smirk on his face. Alice giggled and gave me one final kiss on the check and skipped, yes skipped over to Jasper.

"Jazz, guess what? Edward is coming with us home to see mom and dad and Emmet and Rose! Agh! I'm so excited, I have to call mom and Rose and book another ticket" she spoke so fast I only just understood what she said, but Jasper looked like he understood every word. Really, I don't know how he deals with her on a regular base. Shaking my head, I turn off my computer, and grab my suit jacket.

"Well kids, I'm heading home. See you both tomorrow." Kissing Alice on the forehead and patting Jasper on the back, I walk away from Alice's babbling.

Getting into the elevator, I open my phone and look through my contacts. Just because I said I didn't have a relationship doesn't mean I would purposely torture myself. Scrolling down I find the contact I want and press send. I t only rings once. I smirk; I'm never left waiting long.

"Hello darling" The voice purrs down the phone to me. I nearly laugh at the attempt of a seductive voice she does.

"Hey baby, you busy?" I know she wouldn't be and even if she wasn't she would cancel them for me. I hear her laugh and I imagine her with her head back and mouth open and my brain run in the ways I can make her do that all night.

"Never darling, my place?" I'm slightly disappointed that it's that easy. Someday I think I would like the chase, but for now, I'll take the easy way out.

"Always baby, be there in ten" I'm anxious to get in there (no pun intended, well actually yes intended) and get out so I can go home.

"What colour?" This is the thing with her, every time I'm come over she changes her hair colour, and asks me what colour, but my answer is usually the colour I want her body in. I don't have time for that tonight.

"Nude baby, my favourite colour on you" She giggles and tells me she'll be waiting, Hanging up I think of what my life would be. If I became the doctor, I started as would I have the life I craved; the wife, the kids, the prefect life. Would that really happen or would I be the same workaholic I am now and the only women in my life would be a slut I've been leading on for three years. I'm not sure, but it will have to do for now.

Walking up to her apartment building, I look to the alley beside it and I see a few homeless people. I can't help but think what is it that caused to be where they are now, were they like me? Successful? Happy? I don't know, but I can't help but sympathise, I have everything and they have nothing. However, at the same time I feel selfish because I have everything yet I am not happy. These people deserve to be unhappy, not me. Shaking my head, I walk into the building.

However, what I didn't realise was down there beside the garbage bin was a young woman who will end up being my redeeming quality.


Soo?... let me know!

Love!
