James looked up and sighted Amelia and another man from where he stood. He looked closely and noticed they were closer than usual. ‘Are they kissing?’ He stormed to where they were, his heart was racing like a train, his respiration increased, and he was perspiring heavily. ‘Why would another man take advantage of my wife in an open place like this? In my Casino!’ He got to where they were, he grabbed the young man by the hand and pulled him away from her. “What the hell do you think you’re doing?!” He asked, and didn’t wait for him to answer before he threw a punch at his face. “Mr. James!” Amelia called in awe. “Don’t you dare call my name! What do you think you are doing? You wrapped your hands around him, like you were enjoying whatever he was doing to you?!” “She didn’t do anything wrong, okay? Who are you anyways?!” The young man answered, cleaning the blood that busted out from the corner of his lips. “I am her f**king husband, and who the hell are you?! Why are you ki
Amelia and James flew back to Alabama in the same airplane, but they totally ignored each other. Amelia tried looking for ways to talk to him, but James wasn’t ready to even look at her. Though Amelia was sad that he was totally ignoring her this time around, Fred was busy texting her over the phone. He said funny things that made her smile and sometimes giggle out loud. James often stole glances of her and saw her smiling while checking her phone. He wondered what or who could make her so happy over the phone. They got to Alabama in less than two hours and they headed straight to the company. They had a lot of work to do. Amelia was glued to her chair for more than three hours, organizing files, preparing documents, organizing and distributing messages from different departments. James on the other hand left for another meeting at his father’s company. It was a meeting Freddie was going to attend too. Amelia was still working when she perceived a familiar scent in the air. She
“What do you mean by she is with you? Your wife is here, she should be with you, not her!” Helen uttered. James smirked and looked at Amelia who had tears gathered in her eyes already. Before he could say anything, Amelia turned to leave and ran out of the house. “Amelia, wait!” Helen called behind her and began to run too. Charles hurried down the stairs after hearing the loud voice of his wife. He got to the living room and saw James in the living room, holding a stranger. He couldn’t find Helen anywhere. “Hey, when did you get here? Why didn’t you call me? And where is your mother? I just heard her voice.” “I don’t know what happened, Dad. She just ran out with Amelia. She will be back soon, don’t worry.” He let go of the woman’s hand and headed back to the couch. “Why is Madison here?” Charles asked, looking at the woman who looked extremely confused with everyone’s reaction, including James. “Her car developed some faults after I left the company, it refused to start. It
Fred got home and carried Amelia out of the car and into the house in a bridal style. He stared at her face until he laid her on the neatly laid bed in his guest room. “Hmm… why is it so hot?…” She moaned and turned on her side. Fred placed her bag on the lamp stand and hurried into the bathroom to get a wet towel for her. He soaked the white towel he kept in the bathroom with water and walked to where she laid again. He made her lay on her back again and began to mop her face carefully with the towel. As he cleaned her body, she smiled widely occasionally. Fred giggled at the slightest reaction she gave. ‘Why is she so cute?’ He was done with her face, and he slowly moved down to her hand. He picked up her right hand and cleaned it. He couldn’t help but gaze at her body. It was so smooth and beautiful. He looked away from her hand and down her leg, he saw a scar on her left leg and furrowed his brows. “What happened to you here?” He asked in a whisper and ran his finger on
‘What the hell.’ James stared at the staircase which Amelia had climbed in great shock. He couldn’t believe she had just walked out on him. “Ame…” All of a sudden, his phone began to ring, cutting him short. He clenched his jaw and walked up to the couch, where he had left his phone. He picked up his phone and saw his mother calling. He answered the phone and angrily placed it on his ear. “Mom,” He muttered. “Woah… what’s with the cold voice?” “Nothing.” “Are you sure? What’s wrong? Is Amelia back?” “Mom, can you please not ask me about her? If you want to know anything about her and her whereabouts, you can call her and ask. I don’t care about her.” “Hey… can you calm down? I never asked if you cared about her or not. Why are you acting weird? Who pissed you off?” “No one. I’m fine.” “Fine. I’ll call her to ask her then. But you have to apologize to her for what happened last night. You did something wrong.” “Mom, I am not apologizing! I have to go now.” He hung up the
Amelia finally finished dressing up. She had been stuck, trying to look for the perfect outfit for her outing. She didn’t only want to look fine for herself, but also for James. She wanted to see him stare at her like he wanted to have her. So she settled with a loose black blouse and fitted jeans. She finished her look up with some feminine accessories and very slight makeup of just powder and red lipstick. She wore a black knee high boot and carried black leather bag to match. She brushed her hair quickly and decided to pack it in a scraper ponytail. She stared at herself in the mirror and fell in love with her new look. She pulled out her phone and took a few selfies at the window. She took a peek at the time on her phone and saw it was a few minutes to 3 pm. “He will be here soon.” She headed out of the room and locked the door behind her. She walked down the staircase and kept an eye out for James’ door. She found it still closed the same way she had left it. She heaved a
James pulled Amelia’s hand as they trudged to the house. They got into the mansion, and he threw her forward. She staggered forward and her bag fell off her shoulders to the floor. “What do you think you’re doing with that guy?!” James asked. “I wasn’t doing anything, okay? I was just eating lunch!” “Lunch?! And he was feeding you?… Here…” He grabbed her hand roughly and looked at her palm. “Stop! You are hurting me!” Amelia cried fearfully. Her heart was pounding very fast. It seemed like a nightmare came true to her. .“I can’t see any injuries on your hand, why couldn’t you f**king feed yourself?!” He smacked and threw her hands away angrily. “What is wrong with you, Mr. James! What do you want from me?!” She yelled in tears. She held the wrist of her right hand, rubbing it softly. She felt throbbing pain in it due to James’ grip. “You are married, okay?! You have no right to have lunch with another man!” “And you have the right to sleep with other women?! You were at that
Helen and Charles got to James’ mansion in no time, after they had called him and heard how he sounded down over the phone. Getting to the living room, they met him sitting on the couch, sipping wine from the glass in his hand. Helen hurried to where he was and collected the glass from him. “James, what are you doing? Why are you drinking?” She placed the cup on the center table and sat close to him on the couch. “I told you not to come here,” He muttered, and Charles let out a loud sigh and rolled his eyes. “What is wrong with you? What happened?” He asked, and Helen also bounced her head. “We fought. It’s no big deal.” “A fight?” “Yes! A fight. I fought with Amelia after taking her away from her boyfriend.” “Did she tell you she is dating him?” Charles asked tiredly. “Does she have to tell me that?! I saw her!…” He sprang to his feet and began to pace in front of them. Helen and Charles exchanged looks as they watched James’ body language as he spoke. “He was feeding he
