A Crazy Kind Of Love; The End The Cook's Daughter 2
Faith ran through the whole building in search of Timothy and when she couldn't find him, she checked outside the main building. At this time, everywhere was well tidied up and the villagers that came to help earlier were already leaving for their various homes. She asked a few people around about Timothy and none of them seemed to know where he was. So, she went in search of him at his quarters behind the main building.She met him on call in hushed voices. Once Timothy sighted her, he signaled that she should keep quiet while he continued the call."Everything is good, he doesn't suspect a thing." Timothy whispered into the phone. "We can still go ahead with the plan, I will handle my end." He said, smiling at Faith. Although the smile didn't affect the tone of his voice. "Okay, Let's talk later then."He said, after listening to the caller. He hung up the call and turned to Faith. "Hey baby." Timothy called, with a warm smile."Are we still doing this?" She asked, making an unplea

"Around friends, yeah?" Paige asked with a knowing smile."Around friends." Anna smiled back. "So, you missed me huh?" She asked as they took a seat in the living room while Sherman was seen still shuffling around with their boxes. "But you weren't here all alone. We left you in great company. By the way, where is Simon? You were asking about him out there. Isn't he home?" She asked, pretending not to know of her brother's whereabouts."I kind of thought he was with you." Paige replied. "I got back yesterday and he was gone. He wasn't home." She told Anna."You went out, to where? Oh, you ba..d g.i.r.l. you made a new friend didn't you?" Anna asked with a lofty smile."I didn't." Paige replied."You didn't? Where did you go then?" She pestered."Uhmm, promise you won't judge." Paige said, pointing at her with a shy smile."What? Okay, I promise. Just spill." "I went to the Tedsons Anniversary dinner like I told you. But, I kind of spent the night there." She said with a raised eyebrow
A Crazy Kind Of Love; The End Happiness
"Okay, let's try this again." Paige heaved a sigh of tiredness. Putting the phone close to her ear again, she turned to the mirror and adjusted her facial expression to a pitiful one. "Hey, I thought to call and check up on you. Are you okay?" She asked, adjusting her voice to a more softer tone. "Now, this is crazy Paige!." She exclaimed, flinging her hands which in turn moved her fingers suddenly and she mistakenly dialed Simon's number without realizing it.She kept the phone down, placing it on her mirror stand and stood akimbo looking at the mirror. She thought of what to tell Simon if he picked up but nothing came to mind. Having ran out of options for her start up line, she felt downcast. Suddenly, an idea struck and she decided to rehearse the line before using it.Picking up her phone, she placed it close to her ear, but was shocked when she heard the voice from the other end of the phone."Sunflower." Simon's calm, erotic and satin-laced voice called. "Are you there baby? Is
A Crazy Kind Of Love; The End An Update
The balcony was quite big and there was no demarcation to specify her space and Simon's.She stepped outside the door staring admiringly at the marble tiled sparkly floor. Simon had a mini table and seats placed towards his side of the balcony and the beautiful Gmelina tree spread some of its branches up there giving it an extra shade and beauty. It was extremely beautiful, like something she has never seen before. Her mouth dropped open as she admired the space. She moved over to Simon's side, taking a seat under the Gmelina shade. The fresh burst of air shook her body, making her smile beautifully. "So, this is what Simon has been urging her to take part in all this while." She thought to herself.*****Back at Galvile, Simon dropped his phone on his mini dining table where he was seated with his laptop and phone. He couldn't hold back his excitement. He had just concluded his therapy session with Chadwick when Paige's call came in.At first he was scared and worried. He thought so

"The Tedsons are manipulating the financial income statement, indirectly reducing the total revenue of their investors while pretending to be upright." Simon explained."What the hell! How... how did you uncover such?""I have my ways." He said. "So, I'm putting a pause on any businesses I have with them for now, until we find out where this is coming from.""Okay." She replied. "Do let me know if you want us to take things a bit up the notch." "The Anna Kentley!!!""They don't call me that for nothing. Meanwhile let's not change the topic please. I saw her this morning, she wa....""Was she okay?" Simon interrupted her."Very okay. She looked happier and calmer than she did yesterday. She smiled all through breakfast and jogged with Emily this morning. I know there is only one thing that can cause such a glow and it must be a man's love. So, how are you both presently, are you good now? Anna asked."We are good." He replied curtly.She waited patiently for him to continue talking, bu
A Crazy Kind Of Love; The End Barnabas The Betrayer
Before now, Timothy had warned Barnabas that if he spoke up or exposed the plan, that the people they were carrying the whole plan out for would hunt him down and kill him. Hence his reason for being so scared to reveal their plan."It was Mr. Timothy Boss, he reached out to me with the suggestion and I agreed. Anastasia couldn't have it as we needed her help but she turned us down, and he threatened to kill her if she spoke up. A few days later, we couldn't locate her again. We looked around and even checked her home but there was no sign of her. One day, Mr Timothy came back and announced that Anastasia was ill and she asked that her daughter help out in the kitchen while she recovered. I asked him about Anastasia's whereabouts and even explained to him that we couldn't locate her before then. I suspected that he might have a hand in her disappearance, but he vowed and swore to me that he didn't. He attributed it to the fact that she might have run away out of fear. I accepted his ex
A Crazy Kind Of Love; The End Reward For Betrayal
Faith and Timothy watched them in silence, with Timothy praying that they take the bait and Faith contemplating if this was the best time to speak up and let Simon know that Timothy was setting them up for a kill. She watched as Simon went into silence standing still with his legs slightly parted. She turned to Barnabas but he had his eyes shut tightly still seated on the floor. This could be her only opportunity at staying alive. She thought to herself."Is the cook still alive?" She heard Simon ask Timothy."Yes." Timothy replied hurriedly. A side look from Simon at his guard got Timothy wailing in pain from more punches."Is my cook still alive T.i.m.o.t.h.y." Simon asked this time, extremely angry.Timothy looked up at his boss and fear gripped him. He knew instantly that his end was so near."No, no." He replied, groaning. "They killed her. But it wasn't my boss. They just told me that they will take care of her. They never said kill. They just said they will take care of her." T
A Crazy Kind Of Love; The End Simon's Sweetheart
Simon looked at her with a smirk. "We are just taking things one step at a time, Aunt B. It's nothing too serious." He replied."But she's with you now?" Bridget asked."That is what I'm saying, we're taking our time to explore. Hopefully things will fall into place soon ." He replied."Hmm," Bridget sighed. "I seriously can't wait to see her.""You won't have to wait for too long." He reassured her. We'll be at Creek island in no time." He said excitedly"I'm happy." Bridget suddenly said."Why?" Simon asked, trying to know."I'm happy that you are happy. I've always prayed for this." She told him. "Whoever she is, I pray she never lacks a thing in her whole life for making you this happy, I owe her all of my gratitude." She further added in a tearful voice with tears threatening to fall off her eye. Simon sighed deeply, stepped up to her and wrapped her up in a hug."You don't have to cry Aunt B. It's enough to know that we have each other, we are here for each other and I also have

A gorgeous hostess led them upstairs to a quieter VIP bar that overlooked the stage and dance floor below. They were shown to a small seating area by the balcony and settled at a table hugged by two half-moon velvet sofas. The hostess propped a beverage menu in the center and said, "Your drinks are on the house. Enjoy your evening.""Wow!" Ugo whistled. "We scored.""I think that hawker recognized you from one of your court cases. Because how the hell are we getting such VIP treatment when we're yet to spend a dime." Daisy said out loud."Wouldn't that rock." Ugo grinned. "Or it could be the chef guy.... That dude is full of surprises. I've gotten too many gifts than I can't count since I met him. Yet, he's not interested in hitting this ass." "He could be pretending." Daisy fixed in. "Or taking it slow. The good old ways. He might be hoping to win you over thoroughly before making a move. In order words, he wants you to....""Loose my damn guard. Mmmm, not happening, not gonna happ

"Look what I brought you." Daisy said instead of arguing. She pulled the champagne bottle and the chocolates and crackers out of the paper bag. "I'm not quite sure how cold the champagne is anymore, but we still have to drink it. And I heroically saved all of them, including the chocolates and crackers from the guy I was stuck in the elevator with, so we’d better enjoy them.""Well, of course we still have to drink that champagne. Give me that." Ugo grabbed the hotel water glasses as Daisy pulled the foil off the champagne bottle. "I can’t believe you were stuck in the elevator all that time. And why weren’t you texting me back. Was your battery out?" "Okay, there’s a story there, but let’s toast to you first before I get into all of that." Daisy twisted the metal lid open and pulled out the cork with a gentle pop. After she poured a healthy amount into each of their glasses, she held hers up. "To Ugo Chike, the first black female partner at Jade and Judy, in over ten years. To a br

"I've been doing fine for years now. Please just go back to wherever you're coming from and let me be."Brett moved over to her and crotched down opposite her. "Go on a date with me, over the weekend."Daisy burst into laughter. "Is this guy a joke or something." She asked rhetorically, loud enough to Brett's hearing. "No.""Come on.....""I'm not going on any godforsaken date with you Mr Lexington. Not in your wildest dream.""Okay." he said pushing two open hands forward to calm her down. "Go to a fundraiser with me then. Technically, I wanted you to be my plus-one at the fundraiser organized by the Mayor over the weekend and maybe we could go on a date afterwards. But since you said no date, let's go to the fundraiser together." He offered."No.""Daiz. I promise you, if after the fundraiser, you decide that you don't want to be see me ever again. I won't bother you. Just this once, please?"Daisy became calm for a moment. She looked up at his angelic face and watched him flash a s

CHAPTER 1"What time do you even plan on getting here. Are you sure you're still coming?" Daisy listened to Ugo whine over the phone."I'm all dressed up already. You'll see me soon, I promise. I just had a really stressful day at work and I had to make a quick stop at home to get into a more comfortable footwear." she tried explaining. Pushing the door of her walk-in closet close, she pulled a black leather jacket across her black singlet, sat on the bed and bent low to buckle her sandals when she heard Ugo's next words."You're changing footwear? Don't tell me you plan on wearing any of those boring flat sandals of yours.""Something wrong my flats?" "Really, you're going to ask me that." Ugo boiled."We're going out to celebrate for crying out loud. You have to look the part. Put on a pair of those gorgeous Louboutins you got there. Why do you splash so much money on exotic footwear when you don't wear them.""Hello, are you forgetting something? You're forgetting that you make me

A Crazy Kind Of Love; The End Mind Change (The End)
Paige was more shaken than she cared to admit. Somehow she did not expect Stefan to openly confess his infidelity. She had thought perhaps he would attempt to deny it."Why, Stefan?"He reached for her hands, but she pulled them out of his reach. "Why, Paige? Because you were always so unapproachable. There were times when you turned me on, made me so hot that I thought I was going to explode... and ......... and then you would just put up that damned 'don't touch me' shield. And when you did that I had to have someone else. Any woman.""You're a liar, Stefan. Why didn't you tell me that you wanted me?"He managed a winning smile. "I guess way back in my head I wanted to save you for marriage."Paige's smile was cynical and sinister. "It's too bad you didn't save Aurora, because I'm history, Stefan Riley."She stood up, holding her glass. Stefan never had time to react when she walked to his side and emptied the glass in his lap.She replaced the glass on the table, smiling. "That shou

The next morning, Paige woke up to an empty bed. Simon didn't come in throughout the night and she was just too stubborn to go to him. She sighed, had a quick shower and left to grab a quick coffee in the kitchen. Veronica was prepping their breakfast when she showed up and she took two biscuits from the freshly baked ones and cup of coffee."Have a nice day Mrs. Veronica." She called."You too ma. But won't you eat something better than just biscuits? I'm baking banana bread." She called after Paige."Yummy, keep some for me. I'll be back in a couple of hours." She replied from the living room. She scanned the house and saw no trace of Simon. Gulping down her coffee and biscuits she rushed to the kitchen to wash the cup but it was taken by Veronica. "I'll do that ma'am." She offered. "Thank you so much." She grabbed her phone and sent Simon a quick text telling him where she was headed before opening the door. Nicon appeared almost immediately, neatly dressed and ready to go wher

They floated together, each motion smooth and fluid as if the music had been choreographed just for them and them alone. Unspoken whispers and desires raced back and forth, telegraphing a savage hunger, a desperate need. Their bodies were in perfect harmony. Paige needed and Simon fed her.The desire to share her body with Simon Kentley surpassed all reason and common sense. But at that moment common sense was what Paige lacked most. She wanted to experience the waves of ecstasy he had given her earlier; she wanted the peace Simon offered, and in turn she would give him the love he sought from a woman.The musical selection ended and Simon led Paige through the throng. The next number was a rocking, upbeat tempo which got everyone to their feet, moving in time to the pounding, driving rhythm.Simon caught Tenor's arm. "We'll be on our way now.""You're leaving?" Tenor asked. Simon nodded, and Paige was as surprised as Tenor. "Give them whatever they want," he informed Tenor."You're

Fiona boldly walked up to them and flashed a smile."Who the hell let this pest in for god's sake." Simon swore under his breath making Paige giggle. "Hi Mr. Kentley." Fiona started with her annoying voice. "Miss Ruben, how are you?" Simon called coldly but Fiona did not seem to notice the coldness in his voice. "I'm managing to survive." She replied. Leaning forward, she peered at Paige. "Hi there, it's you again." She smiled "Won't you introduce us officially Mr. Kentley. I mean we're all here because of her." She said, draping her arm on Simon's hand.He gently removed her arm. "Miss Ruben, this is Paige Patterson, my girlfriend."A frown marred Fiona's beautiful face. "Your girlfriend." She murmured in annoyance."Fiona's father is a business pal of my dad's," Simon stated, deliberately ignoring Fiona. "This woman is no fucking girlfriend of yours!" Fiona shouted.Paige reacted as if she had been shot. Fiona's voice was strident, hysterical. Heads turned in their direction.Sim
