“ Hey babe. Oh my goodness, please I'm sorry" Laura apologized, running towards me.

I noticed it was a man that dropped her off but his identity remained unknown to me. He drove off immediately and dropped Laura.

“ What's the meaning of this, Laura? Where are you coming from by this time?Do you know what this action of yours has cost me? And who the hell is that jerk that dropped you off?” my anger burned towards Laura.

I couldn't believe that all my efforts in fixing our engagement party ended up for a reason best known to Laura.

She finally walked up to me and immediately put on a pitiful face and hugged me.

“ Oh, come on, Laura" I pulled her from her, angry. “ I need an explanation!"

" I swear, I never planned any of these” She began to sob. " Actually, I would have been here since 4pm. But I drove into some goons who took my car and almost molested me…”

" Huh” I grabbed Laura's shoulders, checking her out In fear if she was injured or something. “ Did they lay a finger on

    EverleighThe sky that evening was cloudy as if it would pour heavily. A furious wind blew causing the trees to sway rhythmically, with debris floating effortlessly in the air.It's been two days since we returned from Pennsylvania and I sat in the living room, glaring through the windows, watching how furious the wind was.Chills ran down my spine as the cold from the heavy wind began to ravish my skin.I was a bit worried since Felix wasn't back from the office yet. Although it was just a few minutes past 4pm, everywhere looked dark already, waving a signal of disaster in my mind.“ Ma’am, here I have this. This would do for the weather." One of the domestic staff, Mrs Hannah, handed me a cup of hot tea.“ Thank you, Mrs Hannah” I smiled and collected the mug from her before she left.When she left, I sipped a little from the hot tea and kept the mug back on the table.My attention was forced on my phone and the window because of Felix. He wasn't taking my calls, nor was he respon

    Everleigh“ I don't want to have this conversation. It's been a long day, Ever. I will just be in my room”Felix walked away feeling embittered by my words. To be honest, I have been skeptical about agreeing to keep this pregnancy for Felix. Another man’s child?“ Fuck, Ever. Wake up" I hit my head continually as If it would help me come back to my senses.Our wedding has been fixed and In less than two weeks, I would be standing before the altar to take my vows. How sure am I that Felix doesn't have interior motives behind his actions?It is weird and abnormal for a man to accept to marry a woman who's pregnant for another man. Even though it's a contract marriage, it doesn't make sense.Dinner was served and we ate in silence. I noticed how Felix sometimes looked at me with some much worry and contempt. I guessed I hurt him badly with my words earlier.He took a few more bits of his chicken parmesan before lifting his gaze to me.“ We’ll be going to the hospital for your prenatal fi

    FelixThe continuous beeping of my phone forced sleep away from my eyes more than I expected. It was already 6 am, another beautiful morning.Yawning, I took the phone to check who was calling and I realized it was Rose.I dialed her contact while still stretching on the bed but a certain feeling crawled through me and turned to the other side of the bed.Surprised, Everleigh wasn't on the bed anymore.Where could she have gone? There was no sign that she was in the restroom either.Rose had already taken her calls but I deliberately ended the call to attend to the most important issue.Getting out of bed, I rushed to the living room to see if Everleigh might just be there, but she wasn't, so I hurried back to her room.The door was bolted from inside and when I knocked, I got no response.Something kept telling me that Everleigh might terminate the pregnancy unknown to me. I see how she's still struggling to accept this reality. I had my reason for wanting her to keep the children. T

    Felix“ Listen, Rose, I need you to do a background check on my partner, Everleigh. I need to find out about her family. Secondly, I will be needing you to tail on her. In other words, you are going to befriend her and be a constant visitor in my mansion. You must report her moves to me.Name your price. All I need Is a perfect clean job. I have a lot to handle in the office. I don't have the time to investigate this myself.” I said and opened my laptop to show Rose something from inside.Rose nodded after I showed her the picture of Madison Clark, who seemed to have something to do with Everleigh.“ Who's she?" Rose pointed at the picture of Madison from my laptop, seeking clarification. She was a bit amazed by the job I was assigning to her but didn't ask any questions or interrogate me.“ She's Madison Clark, the popular and famous daughter of Clark Moore. She seems to have a deep relationship with my partner. Find out what it is between them. Do this as soon as possible” I pull

    Felix“ What are you doing with that, Laura? Do you want to kill me? Please put the knife down," I took two steps backward.I was flustered when the rays of the knife In Laura's hand penetrated my eyes. With the way her eyes burned with intense rage for me, I'm sure she might not hesitate to pierce me with the sharp knife because of my betrayal.She gave a malicious smirk and moved closer, with the knife hoisted in a position that targeted my stomach.“ Felix, you gotta be kidding, right? You know how much I loved you and have always wanted to be with you. But what did you do, throw some mud to my face, isn't it?"She moved closer and I moved backwards. I needed to find a way to make her put the knife down." We can talk this out, please. I can't possibly betray you" With my two hands hoisted above my head, I kept moving backwards.“ Talk what out, Felix ?" She gave a frustrating laugh and then yelled” You deceived me. You betrayed my trust already and I can't forgive that.I even

    Everleigh“ Felix" My eyes widened in disbelief. “ What are you doing here?" Felix was shocked to see me. I had come to the hospital that morning to conduct another test since I didn't believe all that his Doctor had explained to us.I was just as shocked as Felix himself. How did he know I was coming to this hospital?Gazing surprisedly at me, Felix grabbed my hands, his eyes, hungry for an answer." Why are you here, Ever? Did you do anything stupid to my kids? " Felix grabbed the paper in my hands, his eyes scanning me to know if something was unusual.We stood in the crowd, transfixed by how we got to meet each other in the hospital, but I noticed Felix's shirt was messed up and full of blood stains, although I didn't see any sign of injury In his body.I became more curious and asked, “ What happened to you? Did you get hurt?" My eyes scorched Felix with a bated breath, but he, too, was carried away with the results in his hands and did not answer me till he was done reading th

By now, the three representatives of Nasco Group, a company that deals with technology, might have been present and awaiting my arrival.Gina told me that they were waiting for me and the other CEO to arrive before commencing the meeting.At about 2: 30pm, the meeting kicked off after Mr Park Moses, CEO of Nasco Group, arrived although he was a bit earlier than we'd expected.The deal was signed and we all took photographs to make it more remarkable.After the meeting ended, I thanked Mr Park before he and his men left.“ Good job, Mr CEO. I'm Impressed." Gina walked up to me, rubbing my shoulder shamelessly. She is some dirty flirt who will never get over her boss.“ You should get a boyfriend soon, Gina. You ain't getting young any longer. Don't be deceived by the too much makeup on your face" I said sarcastically and began to walk towards my car. I have no time for Gina and her stupidity." Is t

I was some god in her crazy head.After uploading about five videos of our engagement party that took place in the same hotel two days ago, I laughed hard, resting my head on the bed and waiting for the comments to start popping.It was late that night, and I was expecting Laura to spend the night with me, but she told me that she was going to visit her parents who lived on the outskirts of Wellington.I wanted to go with her to at least see her parents, whom I have been dying to meet all these years, but she told me to hold on till when we’d go for a formal introduction. Our wedding was around the corner too.Engrossed in my phone, the reaction I wanted began to pop up.

    ClydeTo my surprise, Laura hugged the guy tightly and pushed her phone to me to take a picture of her and the guy together.Both know each other very well. He is a famous artist and songwriter from London.What the fuck.I helplessly took pictures of them together but my burning eyes and adrenaline rush didn't allow me to take good ones. All were all blurry from jealousy, hate, and rejection.When I gave Laura back her phone to check the pictures out, she got mad at me and demanded I take better ones.My anger grew. I could just punch the dude's hawkish nose but I feared Laura. She doesn't mind ending our happy marriage.So, I kept mute, complying in obedience to Laura's will even though I was mad inside.I handed Laura the phone once I was done.“ Good boy" She squealed, shattering my hair like I was her kid brother.“ Baddie, hit me up, alright?

    ClydeThe news about Madison Clark's death shocked me, but it served her right. She can't try to make life unbearable for others and go scot-free. Her evil bounced back to her.“ Cheers, everyone." I raised my glass of champagne and we all collided with our glass together.Two days ago was my wedding, but the celebration is still ongoing even now. A few of my friends and some of my staff still visited, including James, my assistant.“ You seem to be super excited. What's the secret, or I guess it's your beautiful wife, right?" Dirk, one of my old friends, smirked at me and Laura giggled."You should get married soon, young man. Marriage is a blessing from God. I miss my wife already," James answered, but that wasn't enough to convince my promiscuous friend, Dirk. He wasn't ready for those shitty stuff.Dirk scoffed. “ Come on, men. Marriage is a whole responsibility. Can't put up with the whole shitty thing. It's entirely crazy" Dirk gulped his champagne. He was already nauseated by

    FelixI hurried home that day to be with my wife. Earlier, I had sent Rose to be with her until I returned.Mr Clark called while I was away. He sounded like he was going to give up soon. Truthfully, Madison was the only child he believed he still had after Everleigh faked her death many years ago.Guess this was the time to take Everleigh back to him. I have been thinking about it, but I wanted us to go for our honeymoon first before traveling to Las Vegas. Now that fate has taken its course; I think I should hurry before Mr. Clark does something deadly to himself.Maybe Everleigh's presence will bring consolation to him.Today, I was in the hospital and had seen Madison's corpse before it was taken to the morgue. She died alongside her three bodyguards after their vehicle ran under a heavy truck around 7:21 pm last night.She had been immediately rushed to a good hospital after the accident. However, all efforts to save her proved abortive. According to the doctor In charge, she br

    Eveleigh“ What's going on Felix?" I asked worriedly as Felix immediately hung up on the phone.I gasped, looking into Felix’s eyes, but he was not ready to get me a response. From the cold expression on his face, I could tell that all wasn't well.“ You ain't saying a word. What is the matter?" I protested and he simply drew me to himself, his face clouded with shock." Let's just go home okay, I have somewhere important to be this minute”" No, Felix. I'm not permitting you to leave if you don't tell me what's going on. If we would be together, then you should be accountable to me,” My voice was firm, enough to make Felix change his attitude towards me.I have ignored too much. Felix keeps me in the dark, acting secretly. Why? I am the woman in his life. If there's anyone he shouldn't hide stuff from, then it should be me.“ You know I love you, right" Felix kissed my forehead, trying to fool me.“ I know. But I'm not going to give you the chance to fool me" I replied boldly.Felix

    EveleighAs the birds chirped their melodious but disturbing love song, I faintly opened my eyes but immediately shut them back and returned to my peaceful sleep.I was all wrapped in the hands of the man I love. That alone made my sleep peaceful.However, a call from Felix's phone forced me to open my eyes.I located Felix's phone, which was under the pillow where my head lay, and immediately put it off.Opening my eyes, I caught a glimpse of Felix's clothes and mine flung carelessly on the floor, and a beautiful smile snickered my lips.Last night was my best night ever. The sweet memories of all that happened and how it happened caused me to keep smiling to myself alone.We both were stripped on the bed and instead of recoiling, it only made me happy.Glaring at Felix who was still fast asleep, I kissed his forehead and folded myself in his hands again.Felix didn't move an inch. His breath only kept thumping peacefully and calmly.Despite how many kisses I kept giving him he only

    FelixBolton Hotel that night was quite a sight to behold. It was very difficult to tell it was late because of the extra lighting the huge chandeliers gave.The hotel also had elegant and spacious suits that suited Everleigh's taste.So, I made a reservation for an executive suite to spend the night with my lover.“ I love the air and peace in this environment." Eveleigh shut her eyes, inhaling the sterile air as we walked inside the suite.“ Sure. It is secured as well" I added, then sat on the sofa.Everleigh loved visiting new places, so I allowed her to explore the apartment while I sat in the living room replying to some messages on my phone.After five minutes, I joined her in the master's bedroom.“ Let's go explore the beautiful places and the beach outside.” I took her hands, and we retired from the suite.The lovely dark clouds and the cool breeze by the beach side made me want to spend the entire night outside.We sat wrapped in each other's hands by the beach side, watch

    EveleighAt dusk that same day, Felix told me he had a surprise for me and that we should go somewhere special to spend the night together.I agreed and we went together to our room—Felix’s room.Throughout the day, I noticed I was quite fulfilled and thankful, especially to Felix, who had stood by me during the devastating storms and had dragged me away from making the worst mistakes ever.I would have killed my children just because I was clouded with the pain and betrayal of their biological father, Cylde. Had Felix not intervened, I would've regretted my actions throughout my lifetime.Life with Cylde was a pathetic story for me but life with Felix is unexplainable love and happiness.At first, I thought Felix had ulterior motives for wanting us to get married. I thought him being extra kind to me was just a way to get me into loving him before he thought of taking his revenge on me.However, I was all wrong. Felix is the last person who would hurt me.

    FelixGazing at the young man walking majestically from the door, I suddenly became nostalgic about some events that took place when I was a teenage boy.The young man who just walked in looked like my cousin who went missing when we were just fifteen. His name is Ethan Foster. It's been a whole thirteen years now. Neither I nor his parents have set our eyes on him.“ Good day, sir" The young Man genuflected with a handsome smile playing on his face. He waited for my response before sitting down.“ Please sit," I said, my eyes scanning him intelligently. No doubt he was Ethan’s lookalike. There was not much difference.“ Thank you." He pulled the seat and sat.Aside from the feeling inside me, I already loved the young man from the moment he walked in.From the look of things, he should be in his late twenties, and if I am accurate, that should be the age of my lost cousin, Ethan Foster." Tell me everything about yourself” I was keen on hearing the young man speak.Somehow, I kept be

    FelixAfter hearing all the secrets Everleigh has been keeping away from me, I became more attached to her.In the past, she only ran away from home because Madison wanted her dead and I didn't blame her for her actions. Not even lying to me made me hate her.It's been four days since we got married. By now, Everleigh was supposed to have resumed work in her company but I told her to hold on till our honeymoon was over. We were planning to travel to a faraway country for relaxation.While we took our time to plan on a peaceful environment to relocate to for our honeymoon, I ensured that every item Cylde took from E.C Enterprise to the other company was replaced.That morning, I got a call from one of our partners and had to leave the house early to meet up. I also have an appointment with Everleigh's new doctor at 1pm, and an interview to conduct by 10am in the company.
