New Life : A Second Chance Chapter 708
Advertisement
During the time Kyle and Sayuri had been at the doctors, Sarah was familiarising herself to her new workplace.
Sarah looked at the items she had arranged on her desk happily. It was a pity that she couldn't put up Kyle's pictures there, but it was too soon. No one should know about their relationship.
Or rather, their future relationship.
So, while she was sad, it was good enough. She had tons of his pictures in her phone, so she could look there when she got lonely. She had survived this long, she can handle a few more months.
Finally, she was here.
Finally, she was at the place she had worked so long, and so hard, for.
She looked around the office with a smile on her face, contentment evident.
However, when she thought of that scene … her man with another woman … she started getting upset. Why was he so blind to the one person that was perfect for him? She had known the other girl wasn't the one and it was obvious.
When he came back, he had changed completely.
Sarah knew that it had been due to the break-up. He had gotten swindled, his pure feelings were crushed and he had given up on love. Unfortunately, she had not been around at that time. She had been busy honing her skills and gaining the experience needed in order to work here.
So, while he was at his most vulnerable, that vixen took her spot.
Sarah thought about all the late-night studying, the work she had done, and all the sacrifices she made in order to be right where she is right now. Kyle was surrounded by all these fake women, and it wasn't his fault that he got fooled.
Sarah hummed a happy tune.
Now that she's here, she finally is able to make her move. All obstacles will be taken away so that Kyle would finally, finally see her. This was something Sarah had known from the first moment she saw Kyle.

Kyle was in love with her, but he was too blind to realise. Only she, who was aware of all the working of the Universe, managed to know it. She knew that the path to true love is never smooth or easy.
Sometimes, he would get lost along the way before finally landing where he should.
It was okay.
She was more than willing to work at it because, after all, like everything that was perfect - will take time and effort.
She had so much to do.
As a new public relations officer, she needed to get all the information about the HQ and what they had done all this time.
She had to familiarise with the workings of the Smith Industries.
She had to know who the people involved were i.e. the customers, investors, stakeholders … oh, so much to do!
Not to mention, getting rid of Sayuri and her baby.
No way was she going to share her man with any other woman - or those who stole his sperm.
Sarah continued to hum happily as she did her work.

"So?" Sayuri asked as she handed Kyle his breakfast.
He thanked her, and answered before tucking in, "It's Sarah."
Sayuri blinked and shook her head, "Really? Seriously? She hasn't given up??"
Kyle shrugged, and turned towards Junior, asking him, "You ready for school?"
Junior nodded while carefully putting a spoonful of scrambled eggs into his mouth.
"Good boy," Kyle said with a smile, rubbing his hair. Junior smiled at him in return, his cheeks puffed up with the eggs.
Turning his attention back to Sayuri, he said, "I checked the employee records. She's the newest recruit in the public relations department. Her credentials are impressive and above board."

Sayuri twirled her spaghetti and said, "So you can't fire her for no reason. What are you going to do then?"
"Monitor her 24/7," Kyle said, as he poured another cup of coffee for himself, "I'll put security detail on her activities, and also have Lucka monitor her online activities."
Sayuri raised an eyebrow, "Isn't that overkill?"
Kyle looked at her seriously, "She's hung on this long. She may not be a ninja or anything like that, but … that gaze of hers isn't normal."
Junior listened to the two adults talking without much interest. He didn't really understand what was going on but it was okay with him.
Actually, he liked the fact that they talked so openly and did not hide things from him. He may not understand, but it made him feel warm inside for it felt like he was a part of the family.
As usual, he would feel sad when he thought of this and he turned to look at Kyle again. If only he really was his father, but Junior knew better now. It hurt, but … he looked at Kyle again.
At least, he didn't feel empty.
Whenever he went to visit his mother, that kind doctor would also explain things to him afterward. It wasn't her fault, and she didn't mean to lie to him. Junior didn't quite understand why his mother would think Kyle was the father, but it was enough for him that she did not mean it.
More importantly, that none of it was his fault.
He liked the doctor because the doctor was always so patient with him. He also could see his mother not being so angry all the time now. At first, he had thought his mother was angry at him, then the kind doctor explained that it wasn't.
It took Junior some time to accept that, but as his mother got better, she would tell him the same thing as well. Sometimes, she would cry and ask for his forgiveness for being so moody.
"Junior?"
His senses snapped back to the present. He had been so lost in his thoughts that he had not heard Kyle calling him.
"Yes, Uncle?"

Saint's Supporter
Dumped into a world by myself, set up with a class that requires others to excel with just over a week to prepare for a fight with a literal god. This is just another betrayal to add to the list. I won't stop until I find the person who put me in this situation, along with my friend who I dragged into this mess. Transferring to another world and gaining special powers is a dream for some, but if they were dropped into my shoes... they'd probably give up. But I won't. This story has the following elements: Male MC Light RPG mechanics (no in-story stat tables) Non-standard class for the MC Moderate violence A mix of solo fights and group battles with a balance of tactics, skill and ability usage If you're looking for the below, you may be disappointed: Instantly overpowered MC (no prior skills in combat, every bit of growth is earned) Female MC (duh) Explicit sex (may be referenced, but no NSFW chapters) Health bars (damage taken and given reflects reality) Harem Gore and ultra-violence **This story is a First Draft, changes may take place during the process. Three chapters per week at minimum.** **So, this is set up as a GameLit transported to a new world story initially, but it focuses on how such a system would work in real life. There are levels, abilities and mana pools, but damage and health are realistic and combat is fast and frantic. I think that is an interesting mix. If you have any questions, just ask in the comments. I'm always happy to discuss anything in relation to the story.**

Artifex
In a world where art has power and power is everything, Thando Nkhosi is an MMA fighter trying to stand out and be somebody. At least, as much as one can among 23 billion other people. Life is generally good under the [High King]. That is, until he and his friends are catapulted into the upper echelons of the Inner Planet Federation by being granted a power that may be a bit too much for them to handle, and given a task that seems impossible. Trying my hand at a hopefully unique LitRPG system. No stats or number crunching though. Kinda scifi, kinda fantasy but scifi elements only really become plot relevant after the first arc. Won't be doom and gloom but will get really dark at times. Updates twice a week at minimum (2-3k words), sometimes more when school decides to let me out of the pillory lol. Inspired by a writing prompt on reddit and WarHammer 40k orks.

A Tale From Azaad
Desperate and wandering, a young lord stumbles upon unknown knowledge that can help to overturn his peoples’ destiny. But can he rise to bring the prosperity his people need, or fall before it can ever take shape? AN: I hate writing synopses, so I'd recommend reading a few chapters before making a decision. Also, it's tagged as an isekai but those tropes don't appear. Warnings: I mention them, but there are a few chapters that are really gruesome. Furthermore, the innovations and advancements don't come into play until a lot later, though the framework for it all is built up early. Inspirations: South Asian history, Tales of a Reincarnated Lord and some of the histroical and kingdom-building stories on RR are inspirations for this work. If you enjoy politics, clever strategies, nation-building and technological advancement, then this story might interest you. Schedule: New chapter every Saturday at 3PM PST.
