Christian burst out laughing like his life depended on what the young lady had said. It was insane. "I hate when you say that," Chris murmured. He fell silent as he made that remark. Bethany wasn't going to say anything more, that would be aching, but then, she managed to blink away the sad tears that had welled up in her eyes. She wasn't going to allow Chris to know that she was soft for him for a very long time, in fact, anything that will soil her ego put her off the nook to the first begin. "Are you alright?" Chris asked staring at her. Bethany wondered why Chris had asked that question, in fact, she looked away hearing his question, but muttering the right energy deserved to face the young man, she glared at him wondering what she should tell him. After a few seconds of deliberating on that, she managed the courage to lead the man on with her lies. "I am," she said, lying through her teeth. That was proper, oh yes! her charming voice made the young man to believe her, he
Eloise had spent the whole day sleeping, and when she wasn't, she went out to look for a small part time job where she can at least raise some money. At this point in Eloise's mind, she would probably do anything that would bring her door to the table, she doesn't care to know why or how that is going to happen, but still, she wants that so much. Putting the lock in her door, Eloise opened her door and slide herself into the house. Today is really a sunny day and she has finally gotten a job. A worker at a local deli. Eloise doesn't really mind working there as long as it would bring her food to the table and cover part of her bills. If in case life becomes tougher than she has ever expected, then, she might have to retire to her parent's little bungalow they had left for her in the West. At least, she would have a home of her own. Eloise heaved a sigh from her mouth, as she carried the grocery bags to the kitchen, her supplies where already finish, thus, she thought that a fresh
"Please, Eloise, do not think in it that light, I would never purposefully harm you by just checking out your ID, you know? I was probably bored, and I just checked one or two things before retiring to bed last night, I promise," he said raising his hand up and crossing it on his chest. That was truly funny, but the look Eloise shared with him didn't quite make any sense, that would just be unacceptable that attitudes as such might even be conducted. "Ethan, you didn't have any right to touch anything in my house," Eloise said insisting on that fact. "Why?" Ethan's cold voice penetrated her ears."Because you are a..." Eloise burst out, but using her two hands, she crossed it on her mouth with immediate effect. She had not planned on taking her tone on making it face that way, it is an accident, but what more can she do other than insisting on putting several layers of explanation before her. Ethan was hurt for the first time in over ten years, he ached his back knowing that Eloi
Austin didn't know why he walked towards Christian's office, maybe it was because he saw Brenda entering into his office or maybe the fact that she was wasting too much of time there. Knocking once on the door, he opened Chris's door and there was a lot of adjustments in the room. Brenda stood up immediately and she blushed profusely. She is a nice woman with a beautiful heart, a lot of things might be granted to her if she knew where to look for love, and for the right person, Austin felt like he was that right person. Christian was untouched, although he had a strangled look on his face it was crazy how this just went by like that. "I am sorry for interrupting, I will love to talk with you, Dr. Morgan," the young man said his eyes sweeping through the room. The look on Chris's face was calm, Austin wondered how long it was going to take for him to realize he was the one he saw at his house yesterday when he dropped Bethany off. "Sure, what is it?" Christian inquired. Austin s
Opening the door, Morgan did not want to have eye contact with Axel, so with her hands picking up her little bag, she was already running out of the room when Axel, caught hold of her and asked her to at least have some breakfast while waiting for her driving to take her back to see her mother but Morgan, hitting off his hand, she lifted her head to give him that one last stare although she was avoiding it and with a deep breath, she let out."We are not friends and you are my boss while I am a nobody. So you do not need to give me all that privilege because I know who you are, a flirt and a pervert. And this will never ever happen again, Sir."Those were the last things that she said with tears rolling down her eyes and Axel giving attention to that, he finally concluded that what he had been searching for has finally left him due to his inhumane manner of living his life.Morgan ran out of the mansion, leaving Axel to stand on his balcony, with her image going out of his gate. Her w
Keeps walking towards Bethany and with every move he makes, his heart skips a beat. It is almost like he was drowning in her. He did not even know the reason why he is doing these things but he however is unable to stop himself.He hears as Bethany had called him but he did not find words to answer her. Bethany herself did not know what to do. She however knew that Liam was definitely unable to harm her no matter the thoughts that ran through her mind and spread fear through her heart. Chris looks at her in the eyes and further opens his mouth to say something."So why weren't you answering my calls, and you did not even reply to any of my messages. Do you know how worried you got me?, I seriously scared Bethany", Christian said as he still stared at her in the eye still pinning her to the wall. He did that as he took a second to arrange the collar of his shirt, not still taking his eyes off her. While expecting an answer from her.Bethany was already getting very much intimidated by
"I am coming," I signaled drawing the person's attention, I was sick from hearing the excess sounds of the bell pound my eardrums. Opening the door, my attention was shifted to a small teen boy of about fourteen years. "Good morning, Sir, here (handing me an envelope) this is for you," he said. From all indications in life, I wasn't expecting to receive an envelope so I quickly asked the lad where that was coming from. "Good morning, please, who sent the letter?" I inquired politely. In a more aggressive and firm manner trying to intimidate me. "I think you should hold it first, the answers you seek might be resting here, unless you want to tell me you can't read, dumbass doctor," he fired. With everything this lad had said, I found it difficult to even reply to him, I was neither happy nor mad about his case, my temperament was just normal. Pushing the envelope to my face, the kid escape. The first thought that flashed to my head was to call the police, then next, I decided
Before I forget, there was a coffin at the front, resting peacefully, waiting to go and be buried. "Let us welcome our last speaker for the day, Tanyi Daisy Pearl, would you mind stepping up to tell us a brief connection you have between the lady in the coffin?" the priest inquired. I did not know who the priest was talking to until I saw the girl from the hospital stand from her seat. That was the moment in all the ceremony I could actually choose to walk into the church. Finally, I have gotten a name to pair with this lady, the one who had asked me not to show up at her mom's funeral, yet I had stubbornly disobeyed. There was no way I was going to dishonor Mr. Tanyi just because I wanted to please this little brat, there was no way at all. Tilting her head towards the door, our eyes met, the sparks of hatred I read in those hazel eyes made me shiver. The moment was awkward because the people expected her to walk towards the alter. Noticing that the lady's eyes were gazing at
Moving slowly to him, he went down on his toes whispering in her ears if wanted something to eat so that he could go and get it.He smiled and told him not to bother about her and to instead get something for the kids as they are most valuable at the moment."You have not eaten anything since morning right and that is why you are feeling so weak", he said holding her hand.Feeling his hand on hers, his heartbeat up faster than the usual heartbeat she always had.Her dizziness immediately disappeared and her attention was focused on Axel as their eyes met simultaneously.He who was tired like a dead horse, smiled when he was witnessing what was happening between his friend and Bethany, and he was happy that Axel was able to love again despite everything that he had said.catching a glimpse of how happy he was, his thought narrowed to her and the situation that she was going through at the moment.Though he was inclined toward the possibility of her being involved in some harmful dealin
Adrian had carried the lady in his arms, that is awesome, he loves the manner in which the lady had slopped in his arms, it was awkward to think in that way.Before he had the chance to open his mouth and say anything, there was a knock from behind and thewas e docto they had sent for. Immeditely, He was quick in dismissing the maids as he didn't want or suffocate the lady. That wasn't too important right now."You are welcome Dr will like you to check on her, besides, her legs had sustained a terrible accident and she can't walk," he explained.Nodding his head, Dr."If you do not mind, I will check on her immediately," he said ash he placed his bag that he had brought along with him.Ruby on her part starting shedding fresh tears, she had very reason to cry because she hates doctors so much and In case Xavier doesn't know it, It might turn out to be something very difficult to ha dle without crying. Swallowing very hard, the lady didn't know what had come over her, she found out tha
The ride to his house was a quiet one, they barely said anything to one another as the car rode to his house. He kept stealing glances at the lady, it is obvious that he didn't quiet know what is going on. Each time she sees his eyes on her, she secretly loved the fact that the man was picking on her. That was. awesome, she truly admired how they all acted Iike kids in a hide and seek game, well, that was enough to make her roll her eyes in anxiety.Throughout the journey, she felt sleepy to an extent that she couldn't keep her eyes on the road and finally, she fell asleep in the car. It was kind of cool, she loved it, but then, what more could be done about it.The car finally pulled out in his villa located in Bomaka. It was a government residential area, the security here was top notch, more than anything someone could expect of such areas, and that was totally cool. Looking at the beautiful lady sleeping, his first thought was to wake her up, but on a second note, he decided to ca
Him and Adrian were outside and he saw that they needed to go back to the office so that she could get her stuff before bringing her back.Adrian had left in a hurry so much that, she had not taken her things from the office and when her boss said that to her, the first thing she said was, "What about her?" "She will be alone here at the hospital. He is with her and so she won't be hurt by anyone." He responded. She gave him a suspicious stare before saying that the didn't trust him."What was that?" He asked as though he had not listened to her but he's being scared, said, "Nothing, I said nothing, Sir," Hose exclaimed immediately with her eyes, looking away."Yeah, I thought so too cuz if you had said something I would have given you a server punishment. So now, get into the car." She could feel the anger in his voice and there was no way that she wanted to get on his nerves. Rachel, loved the power that he was having from doing what he did and thought he was never going to hurt
"We need to talk, Rachel, two wrongs can't make one right, we seriously need to discuss about these things out please. I know that my manner of approach at the beginning wasn't the best, that is why I am saying sorry," Adrian spat out. The sound of his voice was enough prove toshow that he is so damn serious but to her, barely meant anything to her. "Cut off that speech of yours, Adrian, it serves no good purpose," the young lady shot out as she felt very angry over the fact him had stated out these things. Hendrix sulked on his breathe for quite some times as he kept his expression sullen. It was quite ridiculous that she had to speak to him in this manner, but then, he had to shake his head as if in denial to his own mind."Rachel..." He called out but felt silent instantly, scared of the fact that the lady might even say or do anything out of the norm. Well, Rachel wasn't in the slightest mood to talk to Adrian, in fact, she looked the less unbothered about what she had to trul
Ava worried about Sophie, she didn't want the child to hate her father over trivial issues, especially when she practically found no cause doing so. Taking a very deep breath, she decided to lead it to slip out of her mouth as that was important. At once, the door slipped open and a doctor walked into the ward, he was swiftly followed by a young man behind him, and that was Hendrix, in fact, there was no arguing on that point. It made her want to jump with excitement, but on second thought, she decided to let it go because it is not worth it at all, of course not. "Ms. Andrews," the doctor's sullen face came in. Although Ava had the intentions of talking, all she did was to bite her lower lip as If denying the fact that she was being addressed to. When no reply from her side was taken, the doctor continued, giving the message he wanted to pass by."The results of the ultra sound are here," the doctor said. At once, it made the young lady be very attentive as she waited for the do
Hendrix knew that Ava had had these things to say about him for quite some time and now was only the time to talk about it. Well, she must be proud of herself for what she did because it is quite sick in the head that things don't really make him shake his head in dismay. Instead of having a battle splash with Ava, the young man swirled his head to his daughter's side and as he glared at the child, Hendrix let the words slip out of his mouth. "Sophie, let us go outside and settle the bills, I think your aunt Ava needs some time to catch her breathe," Hendrix's words came out in a very sophisticated manner. The truth is that Ava felt kike Hendrix was now trying to get back at her by just pushing her aside and talking to his daughter. It is quite unfortunate that her niece was so in a mood that made everything sink in a desolate way. "Sophie, don't follow the stranger," Ava said. Well, she had used the appropriate term, but then, was Hendrix a stranger to the child? of course not,
As a man, Hendrix was caught aback by his daughter's strange confessions. Indeed, he has acknowledged the fact that Ava had sacrificed a lot for her, and that is the most essential thing, considering the fact that she doesn't quite know that their matter has been discussed here. "I want you to promise me something," Sophie blurted out faintly. Hendrix got bothered about what his daughter's claim might be, and as she raised his brows, all he did was listen to what Sophie had to say in the first place. Swiftly placing his hands on the lady's shoulders, the young man quickly made it a show to know what all these things are about and considering the fact that he was going to be nice to her, Hendrix went on one knee so that he could clearly bond with his little charming heart face daughter. The thought of him describing her that way made the heat creep through her entire body. That wasn't necessary, but damn it, he had said it already, and staring at the child, all he could do is to mak
Ava had being sitting outside for quite sometime until she had forgotten the time. The scorching sun flashed through her skin and it hurt her so much, coupled with the headache that flashed through her entire body temporarily. "Aunt Ava," she heard a familiar voice called out, and at once, she swirled her attention to face the young child. "Hey baby girl, I've waited for you until I thought that you wouldn't show up anytime soon," Ava said. She was outside sitting on a leisure bench not too far from the parking lot. Immediately, the young lady wondered where Hendrix was, but before she could ask the question, she saw a very familiar figure materialize itself at the corner. "Miss. Ava, I am sincerely sorry for wasting so much time in there," Hendrix apologized as he walked over to her, he pushed forth his right hand, extending it for the lady to grab it. Ava hesitated, but then, she had being to lonely to bear grudges, besides, that was just so unlike her in many ways and she know
