“Why did you not tell me you were sick?” His breath brushed on her face giving her a tingling sensation.
Alexa fought the annoying urge of giving in and frowned her face. She turned to the opposite side and folded her arms.Who the hell was he trying to trick with his handsomeness?He used his fingers to draw back her face to his sight and caressed it, removing dangling hairs that covered her eyelashes.“I heard you were planning on starving to death .” He planted a kiss on her forehead and went ahead to widen the curtains. Sunlight flashed on her forehead and made her eyes glow.
“Why are you here again? If you are here to argue with me on how childish I am then.....the door is that way ” She pointed her fingers towards the door. Coming down from the bed, she pulled shut the curtains and hopped back on the bed with her legs crossed.
”About that.....I am really sorry. I did not mean that .”
His aAlexa turned around and hissed at him. She was not that stupid to eat a cake that has been here for the past twelve years, what was she like, five?“Just asking ” He went over to the couch and bent down. Though the cake had some roughness of it, it still maintained its beauty.“I do not think I have told you how my mother died ”He smiled and sat on the couch.“You don't have to say it if it hurts to say. I would not force you okay?”His words made her to be flushed. She rested her head on his shoulders as her ears became rosy hot.“You have told me half of your past. if I don't tell you mine, that will make me guilty .”Alexa went ahead explaining the tragic death of her mother caused by her uncle. Although, She hated the fact that her mother wasted her love for a man who loved her and also the fact that it pained her when she talked, but that was who she was .“You lost your mot
“Is there really a need for that?” Vivian mocked.“You can leave ”Vivian bowed her head as she went to the toilet. She closed herself up in a cubicle and banged her fist on the hard wall.The pain made her son. She licked her lips and stared at herself in the mirror, and when another female colleague came in.“Have you seen lately that Mrs. Jones and Mr. Armis kind of together? ”“Yes I did. They look so beautiful and romantic. How I wish my boyfriend was this type of our boss .”Another female colleague replied while applying powder to her face.“I feel pity for Miss Vivian.”“That witch? Why do you feel pitiful? All she does is to boss us around. I prefer Ms. Jones, she is more nicer than that white lotus who sticks to the boss like a fly ”“I guess there is some kind of love triangle in the office. Have you noticed Miss Vivian has feelings for th
He smiled and grinned at the same time. The drug effects had taken place and she became drowsy and weak to move. she laid steady on the bed with her half conscious state.This was finally the time to use her. By the time he was done with her, no man in the whole of the world would want her any more.He climbed on her, with an obscene look, he drew some lines on her face and lowered his head to kiss her.A loud bang went through the door as it shattered into pieces with dust and the remaining parts scattered on the ground. Cedric coughed and sneezed due to the dust effect.He angrily got up from her and cleared the dust from his face. Who was this bastard that had the guts to interrupt his business?He fumed and after the dust had been cleared, he yelled in anger.“Who the fuck are you?” His response came in as a punch to his face throwing him off balance and to the opposite wall. His back hit the wall with a powerful sound.He fell do
“Anthony........... It is all my fault. I did not tell you. I just did not want to.........”Before she could finish her explanation, her lips were locked furiously with his.He used his tongue to devour her mouth roughly. Anthony was not in the mood for any of her petty explanation and just wanted to keep her calm.His raising heartbeat became calm. The fear of his woman being raped by another man caused him to be afraid but now she was safe, he calmed down.The kiss lasted for a long time. He broke the kiss, raised the blanket and kissed her goodnight.Never would he have thought that his first kiss with her would be in the hospital and not somewhere romantic, anyway, their current menace was solved and that was all that mattered to him.Next Morning,Alexa patiently waited on the chair in the café opposite her photoshoot site. Her hands danced on the table and she tapped her feet.The door bell rang as a lady in
“Miss Parker........” Kristine ran to her and helped her with her wedding dress, and took her to get changed out of the dress.Few minutes later....The crew cried in joy. The cover was going to make crazy sales and get famous for many reasons, the charming and handsome Big boss featured in the magazine, that alone would grab more netizens attention than the dress itself.“Thank you so much, Mr. Hudston .” He tried his luck again and as expected he got ignored. “Let us go for dinner. I will treat you all.”He said happily as the crew screamed in joy. Alexa and Ray were left on the set.“Thanks once more, I hope I did not cause any problem for
“Patient? That is what you have been telling me all this while. You promised me that she would be gone but look at how she is growing bigger. You are not a man of your words ” Andrew flared up and banged the table. Her words annoyed him to the depth. He had tried every single one to harm her but failed. Something just kept returning the attacks. “Amelia! Mind what you say to me! I have tried my best .” He yelled, sat back on the chair and continued reading the comments. Her hands were clenched to the hem of her shirt as she glared at her father. Done everything? What a bluff! Amelia packed her phone into her bag, alerted her assistant, went to the car, and drove it out of the compound. Gone were the days s
Old Man Alden chuckled at the sight of her mouth open. This man really matched his arrogant and boastful niece's attitude.Khloe, not knowing what to say, sighed. This was all too new and confusing to her.“I will be on my way, Mr. Alden, and thanks for the tea. ”“Khloe will show you the way out. Go ahead, Khloe! ”He nudged her to go and show him off as a punishment for her rude character.“Sure. Let us go ” She agreed and went to the entrance. She shut the door close and leaned on the wall.She watched him as he walked to his car, turned the key inside the car lock and opened the car door.
She pours the last drop of water into his cup and watches him drink it down. She smiled happily at him. Indeed, it was rare for you to see such young men nowadays that possessed good characters and not only looks.“Thanks Auntie. It does help a lot ” His phone beeped instantly with a new message.[Chris: I might come late. There is a whole lot of traffic in the center. All netizens are focused on the new billboard of MARRY ME. Can you try boarding a taxi?]Felix silently read the messages and sighed. Looks like he was going to stay with the old grannie for some time.She carefully observed him and found something different about him and asked.“Ehya, that must be you
Next Six Years, In the Wedding Hall.“I now pronounce you husband and wife ”The pastor announced with the whole crowd cheering and howling at them. Bunch of roses fell on Valerie's head while Gabriel put in her ring on her fourth hand.They had finally agreed to get married and now that was done, her best friend still hadn't arrived. She contacted her and told her of her wedding day yet she didn't show up.“You've been watching outside frequently. are you expecting someone? ”“Yes, Alexa promised she'd be here. Maybe she just lied to get me out of her phone, or she is just avoiding here cause you Ray is also here too ”“Oh that is true. Does he know? ” Gabriel whispered into her ears while taking her to the backroom. He closed her eyes and opened it with a surprised look. Valerie gasped and ran to Alexa and embraced her.“Happy wedding Valerie!” Alexa smiled. Her smile made Va
Meanwhile....Valerie jumped through all the messy snack nylons on the ground to the chair, laid her head on Gabriel's lap and pushed in some chips in his mouth.“Open my big baby!” She jokingly teased him while he munched on the single chips and then swallowed it. His eyes was concentrated on the document he was typing so as not to make mistake with the letters.The documents was all about shares of the LR corps being transfered to the young miss as compensation for the big boss's frequent behavior of ignoring her.“You are always working! When can you stop and focus on me for one day ”“I wished my dear but you know how the workload of the LR corps is. It is a busy company with branches opened up in different locations. Obviously, there is suppose to be some heavy workload. ”“Then why do you have to bear it all? ” Valerie's upset and sassy mouth resurfaced as she put away the chips along with th
Jack stared at his son confusedly. Just how much did this boy love her so much that he his such crucial truth from her. Anyway, no matter how long he thinks he can hide it, she would find out one day.“Ray, listen up. You have to let her know. She is your blood and she deserves to know. You can't keep her in the dark. Yesterday, she dropped off to see your mother. Did you know how guilty your mother felt when she saw Alexa's current position? ”“Lexa came to see me? Why did not tell me?!” He jerked up from the couch with his face angry.Jack smirked at his response. So under this arrogant mask, he still very much cared and looked after her secretly, so why then did he now avoid her? When he received a call from Ray's personal maid about how Lexa felt, his heart broke into tears and decided to talk some sense into his son.“You better let her know and stop all this. Once you lose her, I am not sure you'd be able to find someone
“Pick up the call Ray, you are scaring me!” She sobbed in her palms, repeated the phone call again, and got the same response. Her calls were not going through because he kept declining her calls.She was damn confused and sobbed harder. Weren't they clear on loving each other without the child? Why did he suddenly ignore her every day after since the death of their unborn child?!“Madam, maybe he is busy to answer the phone call. You can try later. ” Miss Naomi tried her best to give some comforting words. She herself found Ray's attitude quite suspicious too, what happened to the super couple?“Busy?! That is a lie. He keeps ignoring my call and avoiding me. What is wrong with him? He wasn't like this before. Ray, don't hurt me like this please ” Her brightly shining tears dropped from her eyes until her eyes turned red.Miss Naomi helped to clean off Lexa's tears and took her to the bathroom to have a bath. Whatever was
He told her, bent his back and raised her up. He wrapped her around his back and brought his hands to his front and saw blood.“Lexa, are you alright?!” His eyes became worried as more blood was seen from where she was seating tied with rope and more dropping. “What is going wrong?”“Ray, I don't know. Ouch! I.....” Alexa yelled with force. “The baby! Help!” She shivered in pain as Ray ran quickly shooting anybody that came in his way. He jumped into the helicopter and supported her in his arms and ordered Miles to fly the helicopter to the hospital.Within five minutes, they arrived at the hospital with Alexa bleeding quickly. He ran into the ICu room called for help and rollers came out from the room, pushing her to the theatre.The others came running to the hospital including Valerie. Good news that she was found and saved but now, she was bleeding to death. What a bad Luck. Along with Valerie came her broth
Khloe removed her sunglasses, smiled towards Lexa and together, they went to have a talk in the boxing ring.“I......have something to say to you ” Lexa started the conversation as the two women were not ready to talk to each other. They were rivals in love chasing after one boy, so it would be unlike them to talk to each other.“Let me go first. Alexa, I am sorry for what I have done to you. I hated you so much because I was blinded by fake love. Ray And I have been childhood sweethearts and even dated for two months before I moved with my Uncle to the US. To be frank with you, I was jealous! I called you so many names all with fact that, you were better than me ”“I recall the day we officially met and you introduced yourself as his wife. I was so damn jealous that I was about to strangle myself. I did not know Ray would move on without me and even ignored our years of love, or I thought that he loved me ”“I fo
“He is associated with the underworld and many of his life history is a mystery. It is too dangerous. If you live me, I promise to make you happy for the rest of your life ” He tied his bleeding wrist with the table cloth.“Felix, are you somehow deaf?! Okay, Ray is not worthy of me, neither would you be. Let me put this straight to you, I don't see you as a man. I can't like you. ”“Why! Why! tell me! I am sure that cunning Ray has bewitched you into loving him. I know a cleanser that could relieve you off the bondage. I just ask you to love me back, Lexa!” He continued to stress on the matter.So all this while he had been with Alexa, she never even for once fancied him, has he been living in fantasy all this while? The truth was bitter and yet, he rejected it and blamed Ray for everything.Why won't he blame him? He was the main culprit why he could not get to Alexa. Every of his schemes to have her all failed and now th
“You are so naive! That is not how a relationship works, Valerie ” Gabriel snapped back at her, pushed her away from his view and moved to the exit of the room. “It requires trust and love. Just you knowing your feelings doesn't count. Feelings go and come which doesn't mean that you truly love the person!”“I know I am a naive stupid girl at love still I know what I feel when I see it. You are the one I like and I am sure of that ”“What of your other seven EX. Is that what you also told them too?”“Maybe I did. That is not the point, you're the true one as far as I know, don't ignore my feelings for you, please ”“Can't you get it?! Miss Davies, dinner would be served soon I suggest you wait in the dining room ” Gabriel emotionlessly answered her. He was done bickering with a girl who had no knowledge on relationship.“Fine! I don't want to have your dinner! You know wh
That made more sense. It was all Alexa's idea to make him free today to spend time with her, what a good babe! But, visit his parents? Won't that be too fast? They weren't even dating yet, if she came with him, it would make their relationship more complicated.Gabriel pulled his brows up with question marks written all over his head. Did she just say she wanted to see his parents with him? Was she thinking well? Or did she hit her head on something before coming out?“Why that look? I like old people ” She lied with her nose in an upright position. She hated old people, they over stressed her too much however for Gabriel, she was willing to try to like them.“You sure? My parents are not that old. Then if you say so, let us go. You just have to be careful of their questions. ” He reversed out from the lawn, drove down the road to the countryside.Hours later, they arrived at a duplex house covered in grasses and flowers with a little
