'Let's forget this ever happened!' A note laid by her side the next morning, with a $50,000 cheque associated to it. "What?!" Her eyes widened in shock as the reality of life dawned on her. ****** Meet Clarissa Wayne, a new graduate who set out with her best friend to celebrate their academic success. She came across Aiden Carter; a sinfully handsome billionaire who was celebrating his latest deal alongside his friend. He was tempted by his friend to lure Clarissa in dating him for a week, as compensation he was going to reward him with $10,000,000. Aiden accepted the deal, but things took another turn when they mistakenly had a one-night stand. It was the first time she ever got intimate with a man. This was happening with a stranger she met just two hours ago. She had set her hopes high as she thought this one-night stand was the beginning of something big, between her and this stranger. She was shocked when she got up the next morning, and the only thing left of him in the room was his sweet cologne which intoxicated the atmosphere. Two months later, Clarissa discovers she's carrying a stranger's baby in her stomach. What happens when she one day falls on the billionaire who shattered her future? "I accept the pregnancy to be mine, but we will never be a couple." Does this statement of Aiden Carter last for long?
View MoreAiden,It’s Monday morning, and I’m looking as hot as hell. This is because I accepted Mrs. Charlotte’s proposal. The proposal of appearing on her next book. Last night, I got an email from her team, requesting some photo shoots for the cover of the book. This is something I’m not quite open to, but for the sake of this project, have got to give it my all. I took some time to go through some of her past achievements and I could tell she really has influence. This is going to help me get the exact influence I have being craving for.Not to say I am not famous. In the city, most of the people know me for the business maniac I am. Apart from my businesses, I haven’t been able to create another life for myself. I just want to prove to my family and the rest of the world that although I ain’t married, I can create a life out of my business.Dressed in a deep crimson trouser, made of silk chiffon, light-coloured shirt and a pair of brown brogues, I glared at myself through the mirror oppo
Clarissa,An alarm ranged annoyingly beside my bed and I angrily slammed the buzzer. I had been sleeping since yesterday at 6 pm trying to run away from what I saw. The little toddler in me made it impossible for me to kill myself in drinking. Hence, drugging myself to a long night sleep was the only option."Damn, my head ache." I let out as I struggled to step down from the bed. My eyes were blurry making it impossible for me to see where I was placing my foot. I had to hold the edge of my bed to help control my steps. After struggling for some minutes, I managed to get to the bathroom. I washed my face, my body and dressed. After which I closed the room door behind me. I was heading to the kitchen to make something for myself. By this time of the day, I’m sure Virginia must have prepared already.“Oh, there you come. I was about to come pick you up. Please seat down and have something.” She said, her voice echoing down my system.This baby I’m carrying has brought a change in Virg
Aiden,The past few days for me has being hell. The Billionaires' Award is coming up in a month, and this whole shit is stressing me out. Not only have I been nominated for three awards, but I'm to host a party after that. Have never experienced this issue before, so I don't know how it works.Not withstanding, I got an invitation from a publishing house. That's where I rendered myself this morning before resuming for work. I must say their offer was tempting and also ridiculous at the same time.Mrs. Charlotte Lamenz, the chief executive officer of Worldwide Publishing Ltc, wants to write a book about my firm. In this book, she wants everything about me to the published.Thinking of it, it was a good and a bad idea. Good because I was going to be exposed to more people than before, but the bad side of it was that I was going to become my haters' object, as through this book, they were going to try by all means to tarnish my reputation.Frankly speaking I had to think about all that b
Clarissa,"Where have you been all this while? Have been searching for you." I asked with annoyance mixed in my speech."I am so sorry that I had to take some distance," Aiden replied nervously. He tilted his hair in an awkward manner."Why did you go so long? Is it that you don't love me?" I halted in my speech and looked in his eyes, to see how he was going to react, "We are both expecting a baby." I placed my hands on my belly and began contouring it in invisible strokes."Do you mean you are expecting my baby? That's good news. Have always wanted to be a father, and I'm glad you are about to give me that opportunity." Aiden said. He took me in his arms."Will you marry me?" He knelt and presented a ring before me.At this point, I heard someone rubbing her hands on my wrist. I gasped before waking up from my long sleep."Oh, calm down darling. What's the matter?" Virginia addressed me. She wore a surprised face."It was just a dream." I placed my hands on my aching head."What dre
Aiden,The weekend has been a long one for me, busy and most especially noisy. I took it as an advantage to renew my wardrobe and run other errands I knew I wouldn't be able to do throughout the week.Mom left one week ago, which gave me that liberty I had been missing.My countenance was filled with surprise when I spotted Miller and Gabriel shopping in the same boutique as me."Aiden, is that you?" Gabriel stated. His grin widened as he watched me with surprise written all over his face."Yes, as you can see for yourself." I said firmly."Long time no see. How many years is that? That should be three years ago." He said, his face covered with smirks."Yeah! You are right, it's been three years." I said annoyance mixed in my speech.Gabriel is an old friend from the university. We attended the same schools and even started a business together. That's when we were very young and naive. At that time, we were just trying to follow our parents steps who were all billionaires.After the f
Charles wale,Have been standing at the other section of the road for the past forty-five minutes, waiting for my so-called brother to show up himself. He walked into the building and have only been seeing him from the glass windows. I don't want to miss a single detail concerning his life.In mid-rise jeans, a button-down shirt, and a baseball cap covering my face. My one hand was tucked in my jean, and the other hand was placed on my cap to help control and have a broad view of Aiden's activity.While observing him, I momentarily piped at the Kia Picanto that was wrongly parked in front of the bank. That car belonged to an old friend of mine. If anything happens to it, then I'm good as dead. I promised to pay him double once I sort out this issue. I changed my car because I noticed Aiden had remarked on my Toyota. It was no longer safe for me to walk around with it.Okay, okay… That's him, he just walked out in a silver coat. He was talking to a huge personality, who in turn smiled
Clarissa,I'm in the kitchen trying to make something for myself. It's the third time I tried making something, but my stomach won't just accommodate it. I tried taking French toss and tea, but it didn't sink down, I flushed it and made matched potatoes and grilled chicken. Still, my stomach rejected it. I'm now trying to prepare African jellof with enough pepper. Hope the baby will accept it this time, I need him or her to understand that we don't have enough money to live a fancy life.After stewing everything and placing it on fire, I returned quickly to the living room to continue the football match that I paused. The hormones these days are causing terrible things to my system. To the point that I seat in front of the TV and watch football, my baby will surely be a boy."Hey, isn't that something burning?" I heard Virginia's voice from the interior.Hehe, I jumped out of my chair, and before I could realize it, I slipped down the floor. I totally forgot I placed a cup of water on
Aiden,The elevator door dings open, with my briefcase in hand, I walked out and quickly reached to my office. I removed my coat jacket and arranged it behind my chair. Next, I went through the already scattered files which were on my table. I had to go through the proposals that I received.I already signed a contract with Mac borel's firm last month. This happened in Singapore. After that, I received another proposal from a oil and gas firm in Thailand, he was requesting a five years contract but he couldn't provide a decent price for my services. I don't work for peanuts. Nope, I don't do that. I already proved to the entire world that my firm has the best service ever.What I find surprising about this is the fact that I have not been paying full attention to my job, especially with my mom who hasn't allowed me to rest by myself since she arrived.Her last visit didn't end well because of the constant harassment from her path and now she's back. The only good thing here is that sh
Clarissa,TWO MONTHS LATER It's been over two months now since I got my degree. I spent most of my time searching for a decent job. I was tired of working for Paddy Bio, given that it didn't fit what I studied in school. Also, I found it nasty.Two months of submitting my CV in different structures. But each time I walked into any of them, I was asked the same question. "Who sent you here?" Like, if you had no one important in society, you could not work for one of the big companies in the area. Is that what life was all about? I guess a poor, low-key lady like me had no place in society.Unable to find a job for the moment, I was home managing the little cents Virginia left me every morning before going to work. Her attitude towards me changed since the day I spent the night with that good-for-nothing soul. She felt responsible for what happened that night, but I didn't blame her at all. Maybe it was written in my destiny that the person who was going to take my virginity away from
Clarissa,Pecking my lips softly and watching the image on the TV screen display, I coiled my hair in between my index finger with a sigh of frustration.Today is the D day, and our degree results were meant to be published. I couldn't afford the transport fare to my school, so Virginia; my flatmate and best friend offered to get to school and verify our results. She left two hours ago. She hasn't called nor texted and I'm beginning to get worried.As much as I wanted to keep calm, I still resented some nervousness. I gave it my all and I didn't want to fail the final exams.I had no money to start all over.I needed a decent job to pay for the bills which kept piling up.The ringing sound of my phone pulled me out of my thoughts. Seeing Virginia's number displayed on my phone, I sat upright before answering the call, "Hello," I said, my voice growing softer."We finally did it. As I speak to you now, we are the latest degree holders in town," She said, her deep husky voice booming th
