For the first time in a very long while, Connor woke up not caring about literally anything. It was as if he woke up with a new goal which was to live life the way it comes and most importantly not get married to Diane or anyone else.After being awake and staring at nothing in particular for about ten minutes, Connor got up from the bed at some minutes to 8 am. He went straight to the bedroom to do his business after which he started getting ready for work.Connor was almost ready when a knock came through on the door."How's my not-so-favorite patient doing?"Connor rolled his eyes, and went back to the room, taking a seat by the edge of the bed."Well, good morning to you grumpy one." She helped herself in."Nice place." She mumbled, placing the first aid box on the bed beside Coonor."I wonder if I'll ever see you smile again.""Can you just focus on why you are here?!"She scoffed, rolling her eyes. "You better be polite or I'll just pick up my things and leave."Connor gave her

"You can decide to marry Diane and still live the life you want to. She might be your wife but you are free to do anything you want. Still go to the club, fuck as many babes as you want, date other girls and be you. It's only going to be official on paper but not affect your personal life.""Plus you get to keep the company, avoid your parents nagging and everyone will be happy.""The second option; you refusing to marry Diane. No doubt there will be lots of chaos, rejection from your parents, the company and all. And trying to file a lawsuit to claim your rightful position, it's just a lot to go through.""You work so damn hard, guy. You can't give up everything because of that fashion model. She's pretty hot by the way. I don't know why you never deeply liked her.""Just when I was about to hail you for saying something sensible, you had to ruin it with your last statement.""Just stating facts. I feel this isn't something worth ruining your mood or existence. Instead, see this as a

"8th Floor, Sir!" She said loud and fast, ignoring her shaky voice.Connor made his way to the elevator. He got to the 8th floor and followed his instinct to where he presumed her office was.As the head of the sales department, Alicia had the privilege of her own office. The office was glass-walled but not transparent for those outside to see.Just like she did earlier to him, Connor badged into her office."I knew you would come running!" She smiled, looking up from the laptop on her desk."What do you want from me?" He asked, coming to a halt in the middle of the room.Alicia smirked, slowly rising to her feet, then made her way towards him majestically, swaying her hips in the process.She hugged him from behind, the difference in their height clearly evident."I want you, baby." She tip-toed, placing a deep kiss on his neck."Get off me!"If she wasn't listening well, she would have missed that."You want this, baby. We both want this." She brought her soft hands to his chest, sl

"You know this is like a dream come true for me.""You just confessed to being guilty. How long have you been planning this?""You don't have to be negative about everything.""So you being nice to me, hanging out with me, you've always had an end goal. To get married to me?""I know I like you a lot and I wouldn't mind that happening.""How much do you want, Diane?" He got straight to the point."You obviously don't mean what I'm thinking.""State your price.""How much do you think you're worth?"Connor stared at Diane for a couple of seconds, not knowing what to say.She stared back at him too."You can take your leave." He mumbled, gesturing for her to get off his lap.She shook her head."Since you came in, I've tried to be nothing but polite to you. Don't push me, Diane.""Don't do this to me, babe. I love you so much and I want us to get married.""I'm not getting married to you, Diane. My mind is made up.""But what exactly is scaring you about it all?"Connor chuckled, "You t

Nadia stared at her younger brother in silence as he gulped down a couple more shots."Do you intend to get drunk here or you gonna get up and do what you ought to do?""This will only take off your pain for a while you know?""Instead of doing a face-to-face apology, can't I apologize over the phone? Or I can tell Cynthia to send a note along with flowers or chocolates or what is it that you women like?""You are now scared of Nancy?""Why will I be scared of her? Her presence has caused so much harm and I really do not intend to do anything that will cause further problems.""You're afraid you will want to have sex with her?""Oh, God, Nadia!""What? I'm only asking a question. Because I see no reason why you are finding it so hard to approach her.""Just try to do it in person. Sending flowers along with written notes and chocolates may portray something else to her especially when you claim you've got no feelings for her. Well, except you truly like her and you're not telling me t
