The last glass slipper

Chapter 4

James pov

" My life has been an obstacle course since day one. Since I was born my dad has been wanting me to take over the family business. I never wanted that, but he kept pushing it until my mother stepped in. They got into an argument, I couldn't sit there and let them fight so I did what my father wanted. Now I'm the future owner of Clockwise industries"
Xavianna: You're forced to go to business school.
James: Do I look like a person who can run a business
Xavianna: Yes, yes you do.
James: That's not what I want
Xavianna: What do you want
James: To become a musician. That's all I want, learned from my mom
Xavianna: She was a musician
James: Yeah she was, I leaned all sorts of instruments. From the guitar down to the piano.
Xavianna: Amazing and talented
James: Thanks to my mom

Xavianna's pov

I looked at the time and ran towards the hall doors. There was a crowd of people coming towards me but I had to push through. When I was outside. The car was already starting to leave and I had to chase it. But Liam stopped so that I could get in

Liam: I almost left you
Xavianna: I know, sorry for keeping you waiting for so long.
Liam: It's alright
Xavianna: Tonight was not the night I expected
