Page looked down at her dress in disbelief and scoffed.

“Did this bitch just pour wine on my dress?” She muttered. Rowan moved to get up from his chair to put Irene in her place but Page used her hand to push him back down on his chair, stunning him with her strength.

Page narrowed her eyes on Irene, glaring at her.

“You poured wine on my dress," she scoffed calmly as if she was trying to process what had happened.

“Can't you see? I did and I would do it over and over again, a million and one times if I have to,” she victoriously stated.

“Really?" Page asked.

Taking three strides towards Irene, she grabbed a half bottle of red wine from the bucket of ice that sat on the table beside her. Savagely, she turned the bottle over above Irene's head. She was bewildered. When Page had poured the entirety of the bottle's content on Irene, she smiled satisfactorily and dropped the bottle on the table closest to her.

“Why did you do that!" Irene frustratedly screamed as she touched her dripping

    “How does it taste?" Rowan asked when Page put a piece of the pork chops he made in her mouth, standing in front of the cooker with him. “Hmmm, it's really good. I must say, you have a knack for making good food," Page replied as she savored the flavorsome richly spiced meat.When they returned home, Rowan had decided against calling in their maids to make something for them to eat as he wanted to be alone in the house with Page. They had chattered in the car on their way home, laughing about insignificant things they saw. They had both changed out of their clothes and Rowan had sent her dress to the largely established laundry they patronized. Page was in red nightclothes; a free top with single straps and shorts that was almost swallowed by her short top. Over it was her lacy transparent red robe. Rowan was in black sweatpants and was shirtless. Page had wanted to cook but Rowan beat her to it. He made four ravishing meaty burgers and some flavorous pork chops with sausages.Rowan

    The two highly compatible friends who were equally sole heirs – Page and Lina – walked side by side with a cup of caffe mocha each in their hands. They had gone to buy coffee from a renowned cafe close to Lina's dad company. Page had gone to see Lina in her dad's company where she worked. Lina's dad was training her in the position of the head of directors as she was the successor of his large blooming construction company. Page told her everything that occurred the previous night; the episode with Irene at the diner and her make out session with Rowan. Her impeccable description of the events amused Lina. “So, what you are saying is that you and Rowan are now good and had a great make out session together yesterday?" Lina asked with a perked up interest."Yeah. I am extremely happy that we are now in good terms,” Page said."You should have seen the look on Irene's face yesterday, the way she fell was hilarious,” she said and evoked laughter from Lina. Lina's contagious laughter ca

    Will typed the last word, sent the message to Page and dropped his phone down on the table.The message read: “Hey beautiful, how are you doing? How was work today? I have made up my mind to follow through with what my heart longs for. Sincerely, I have thought hard and long for days now, asking myself what could have been the reason why you hid the fact that you have a husband from me. Like I said to you on our date night, you might have had your reasons but I am convinced that its solely because your husband probably doesn't see you and that's his loss. A woman that cherishes her man because he loves her and dotes on her wouldn't keep it hidden in cases like this. Believe me, I have tried so hard to stay away but I cannot anymore. The close relationship and bond that you don't have with your husband is my drive and I would not stop chasing you; even if I have to chase you to the ends of the earth for you to be mine, I would. My heart pounds for you and I can't bear this torture of d

    “What did you just say?" Will asked. Still in a dumbfounded state, Rowan didn't answer. “Rowan!" Will called, bringing him back to reality. "What was the question you asked?" “I just asked you what you said," Will replied. “This lady is my wife," Rowan said. “How?" Will asked. “What do you mean how? I just said this is my wife Will. Her name is Page right?” "Yes, that's her name.” “This is Page, my wife; the lady I got married to, the lady I have been telling you about,” Rowan weakly established. “What? I don't understand." Rowan felt injured. He bent his head as he withdrew into his thoughts for some seconds, likewise Will. Rowan got on his feet and went to pay for the beer they had with one of his credit cards. Retuning back to their table, he said to Will, “Let's go outside." Without a word, Will got up and they both walked out of the bar. Will got to Rowan's car and they both stood beside it. “Page is the woman you have been telling me about?” Rowan ask

    Frank, Lina's promiscuous ex boyfriend who Irene cheated on Rowan with on several occasions during their relationship stood in front of her.“Frank? Where are you headed to?" Page asked, puzzle and furious.He didn't say a word to Page but looked away as though there was no one standing in front of him."Nevermind. Tell me how this file got into your possession," Page requested, looking down at it and then, back at him. His enigmatic silence fueled up everything: her anger, her impatience, her disgust and her zeal to know who was behind the theft of her file and the agenda for which it was stolen. She was about to knee him in the balls but her Uncle advised her against it as they were out in the open, telling her to inform her chauffeur to drive her car to where they were. “Where are we going with this vexatious human?” She inquired in disgust, eying Frank. "My home. The interrogation room precisely," he replied sternly, Frank shivering instantly on hearing those words. Three minu

    “Please stop the car," Page told the driver.Right across the road was a Bugatti Veyron with Rowan seated at its tip, his right leg crossed over the left on the floor. What could be the problem, she thought. It was already nine –at night– and the vast road was being illuminated by various street lamps. “I would alight here, thank you," she said to him and with her bag and file in her hand, got down from the cab.She looked to her left and then, her right before carefully running across the road in her heels. Rowan's right hand covered his face so Page couldn't see it.“Rowan," she softly called when she was directly in front of him.In unexpressed shock, he took his hand off his face when he heard that already recognized sweet voice and saw Page."What are you doing here?” She asked him."I could ask you the same," he retorted, innocently."I was at my Uncle's in the evening and was on my way home in a cab when I saw you,” she explained."Your Uncle, John?” "Yes.

    Page stirred in Rowan's arms and stretched like a one year old baby. She opened her eyes to see Rowan's eyes on her.“Hey,’’ she said unknowingly in a sultry voice and sat up on the bed.“Did you sleep well?” He asked, using the quilt that sat on his knees to cover his sudden erection, placing his hand over it to try to press it down. "Yes, I did. You?” "Same,” he replied.His erection only got worse when he looked down on the net area of her gown and saw her cleavage and a part of her breasts. He sucked in a sharp breath and exhaled. Looking away from it to remedy his situation in the tiniest of ways, he took his hand off the quilt but left it in place. They were in a comfortable silence and the house was rid of any maids or cooks. Unknowingly, Page stretched her hand to take the quilt off him but it landed on his hard member. He groaned. Looking at him with flushed cheeks then turning to where her hand laid, she took the quilt off him to behold his hard member that stood out perpe

    Page Uncle's chauffeur had dropped off her car in her house early that morning at around seven. Page didn't feel like driving so Rowan offered to drop her off at work. Her eyes remained focused on California's beautiful road while Rowan retreated into the comfort of his mind.He had seen the word ‘CEO’ in front of Page's name on her file and was shocked beyond repair. She is the sole heir of her father's company? He thought. He had always thought that Page was a spoilt lady that enjoyed the benefits of having an overly wealthy grandad and also wanted to rip off him and his grandad despite being born into a rich family. He had thought she had a brother that was her grandad's heir but it turned out that she was her grandad's sole heir and had enough riches to last her a thousand years without her having to depend on any man or anyone else. She was an independent lady with amazing skills and talents. She was an embodiment of fascination. Rowan instructed Page to stay in the car when he

    “So? How did he take the news?" Lina asked over the phone whilst Page listened but kept her eyes on straight, not wanting to loose Rowan. She was worried that he was driving himself at that time and prayed that nothing would go wrong.“Not well. He was discombobulated and did not want a divorce,” she replied."But you are getting it despite whatever he said, right?" Lina asked.“I do not know Lina. I cannot give you a definite answer right now but all I can say is that I think Will has been playing us both," Page revealed.“What? Tell me you are joking."“I would if I were. He lied to Rowan and he lied to me. Rowan never cheated on me. I do not know what his motives are but based on what Rowan said, he lied to us both to manipulate us against each other then make us get a divorce when we cannot bear each other's presence anymore. Then, he would take it as his chance to be with me, playing ‘the saint’ in the process,” Page uttered."If that is not just an assumption but what is really

    Page felt a pain in her heart at his words but her mind was made up. She had called her grandad and Lina prior to the time Rowan got back and told them she was getting a divorce.“I have given this marriage my all but it seems my efforts to make things work between Rowan and I have been futile. A loveless marriage is not what I wish for myself so therefore, this is where this union between the both of us ends," she had said to her grandad when he tried to tell her to wait some more time to see if he would change from his cold ways. She had chuckled painfully when he said that.“You know not the lengths I have gone for him in the name of love and the number of times he has thrown my hope for us to the ground and crushed it severally with his strong feet by stepping vigorously on it without mercy,” she had said to him when he was standing on his opinion of her giving him a second chance. Rowan sat beside her and dropped his head onto her shoulder."My Cupcake, my beautiful addiction,"

    “It is not my fault nor was it within my power that I fell in love with that beautiful, irresistible woman. I never knew she was Rowan's wife. What do you expect me to do? Unlove her? Just like that? Fortunately, it does not work that way dad. I liked her, I fell for her! I want that woman and I would go for her. In fact, I am going for her. The rest of the world and those against it can drown themselves, they can go to hell for all I care!” He screamed, hitting his hand on the table.‘The audacity to yell. . .’ everyone at the table thought but remained still and quiet.Although, Rowan felt the urge to talk. “Mind you Will, I am seated right here," Rowan did well to remind Will, not appreciating the manner in which he spoke about his wife."So what? So what Rowan? Damn your presence, I am tired of being too cool about my feelings. I am tired of all this shit!” he said loudly with gestures.“Can you calm down son? Do you not see this is all shades of wrong?" His mum uttered softly as

    In a sleek ultra-luxurious La Voiture Noire, Rowan drove, in a neatly ironed checked shirt with various shades of blue, a pair of black trouser and a pair of shiny black shoes to Will's parents house. His grandad had called to inform him that Thomas Garrett, Will's dad had returned to California after his three weeks trip to seal off some business deals and his wife, Eleanor Garrett, a sweet easygoing woman had suggested they get together, eat, laugh and catch up. She had informed Mr. Matthew Cannon about it as soon as she took the decision the day before and he had taken it upon himself to pass across the information to Rowan. Calling his grandson earlier to acquaint him slipped his mind so he had called an hour and thirty minutes before the get-together, right after he remembered. Though Rowan was not upset that he was apprised at that time, his grandad apologized. He took with him a bottle of expensive champagne, Mr. Garrett's favorite and a big bouquet of flowers, concretely peo

    “Home sweet home," Page said in a song-like manner as she walked into her house after a long day of going through reports, signing documents and attending extremely important meetings.“Welcome Madam,” her head chef beamed and said when she walked to her. “Thank you dear. What I really need right now is a long dip in my jacuzzi bathtub a tasty meal,” she stated to her head chef that stood beside her in a long green gown covered by a white apron.“What would you like to have for dinner ma'am?” she asked. "Hmmm…" Page tapped her cheek with her index finger as she thought of what she wanted.“Make me some potato waffles for hors d'oeuvre, pasta and some beef sauce to be accompanied with sausages and a glass of white crisp wine for main course then, strawberry tarts for dessert” Page answered with an already watering mouth.“Preparation of your meals would start right away ma'am," her chef said and went to call the rest of the cooks so that the preparation of their mistress's meals woul

    “You had sex Will?" Lina asked with her eyes widened and her head propelled forward, a voluntary reaction to what she thought had happened.“No Lina, relax. I didn't," Page uttered when Lina spoke."A good explanation of whatever happened is what's most needed here Page,” Lina said, itching to know what had happened.“He sat by me to confort me as I cried after the things he had told me Rowan did and told me to use him to get rid of my pains. He said other sweet things that made me want to kiss him not because he offered himself freely and spontaneously to me as an object of pain disintegration but because I wanted to know how I truly felt about him,” Page said and went silent. "Before I ask how you really feel about Will, tell me what occured before the kiss ensued,” Lina fielded, waiting to hear the most essential part of Page's story, so she deemed it.“Everything basically boiled down to the things he said and did. My heart and head were fighting in accordance against leaning int

    Page concealed her hickeys behind a handful of her hair which fell over her shoulder as soon as she got into the elevator that led to the building's grand floor. She leaned against the wall of the elevator and breathed shakily, her bag clutched by her both hands. She ran her hand over her hair gently to make sure it was still neat and not sticking out in different places –she did not want to give his employees a hint of what had happened between her and their boss in his office. Outside, she got into her car and dropped her bag on the passenger's seat beside her. She waited for her erratic breathing to become stable before turning on a really nice dance-tempting music and heading to work. The thought of what had happened in Will's office filled her mind so she was neither focused on the music nor danced. She brought her car to a stop in front of her company and got down. With her hand stretched, she handed her key to her chauffeur –the one always at the front of the company. She had

    “I was asking why you told Rowan we have shared a kiss," Page uttered, reminding him the question she had asked before he changed the topic. “It's complicated Page," Will sighed and answered.“What do you mean it's complicated?"“I mean that you would not understand why, obviously."“I am not dense Will. You have not told me anything yet so I do not get why you would assume I would not understand whatever you want to say,” Page said, putting her sunglasses down on the table in front of her. She knew she would be able to understand his reasons as long as he explained them clearly to her. Someone telling her she was not going to understand something without having said anything often irked her. Will was quite as he thought of the best way to explain things to Page.“The thing is…” he trailed off, taking a breath. Page wore a look that urged him to go on. She was starting to get tired of the suspense.“Okay so, I told Rowan that we kissed to punish him emotionally for disrespecting y

    “Cancel my morning meetings Katherine, I have something I have to attend to but I would be at the office before noon. Hopefully,” Page said to Katherine over the phone.“Yes ma'am," Katherine replied before the call came to an end.Page wore her intoxicating but soft floral mix and walked out of her room. Rowan was no where to be seen when she got down the stairs so she comfortably left without having to deal with his presence. She had called her youngest chauffeur that morning because she did not feel like driving. He opened the door to the car she felt like going to work in that morning; a flashy red car.“You look extraordinary today Miss Page,” he complemented her."Thank you. New day, new me,” she smiled and got into the car when she took off her sunglasses.Her chauffeur didn't understand her statement fully but brushed it off and closed the door.
