(Vivienne)When I woke up in the morning. My eyes were stinging a little and rubbing them made things worse however I had to wake up and do something"Good morning Miss I see you don't wanna get out of bed" my morning alarm greeted me as I stretched my arms above my head letting out a lazy yawn I leaned back to the headboard and nodded at Julia. I didn't feel like leaving the comfort of my bed knowing I was not wanted anywhere"Yeah...so don't bother me please, "I said hoping she wouldn't bring up something like breakfast downstairs. She drew the curtains apart and opened the window. The bright sunlight sipped into my room like the scent of flowers accompanied by that wet morning fresh air had me exhaling and I called. Julia chuckled shaking his head as she walked back to my bed"Well, I won't since the entire house is busy...I think you'll get to rest for some hours" she remarked while getting some clothes from the couch which were lying around and I was lost"Is there a special occa
"What!what did you do?"Leo exclaimed in pure disbelief as soon as he walked out of the mansion and found Cassy. The woman he hired as his personal assistant since he had so much to manage and couldn't do them all"Well...it's still fine...look, ''she said nervously, showing me the half-dead car. She destroyed his beloved love. His Rolls Royce he loved among his cars and now she was talking as if it was nothing"Are you fucking insane...I gave it to you to get something done but...you little"he was furious as he said shooting daggers at the woman who was so careless and deserved to rot in jail for damage"Come on Leo...it's just a little mud...I can wash it off and the car will be nice and new" she remarked throwing her hands in the air as if what she was saying made sense to her ears"You are impossible!"Leo yelled out of frustration and ran his hands in his hair. She was the worst assistant ever and now he was beginning to have second thoughts"That's it...you are fired" he finally d
"She did something and now...she looks like this"like a fool Leo betrayed me and forcefully turned me around to Victor and I was even more embarrassed that all I wanted was to kick him somewhere where it would hurt deeply that this had already happened"Huh?" it was Victor who said more like a whisper and throwing all my pride aside I removed my hands from my face knowing he would laugh at me"I see" he murmured when I lifted my lashes to look at him. He had a serious expression on his face"Then get her cleaned, "Victor said, keeping his gaze on me and I was stunned he didn't laugh. At least he should laugh so I could feel better but his intense eyes made me lower my head out of shame"Come on…"Cassy pulled me inside and I stumbled and followed her. Leo didn't come with me and I was happy"Who told you to use that...now be still, "Cassy said as she tried to detangle my hair but it was all tangled up. I couldn't get it to fall down and that was a disaster"It's hurting okay…just let i
(Vivienne)"Relax... everything will be fine"Victor murmured as he worked on my hair. I was agitated and uncomfortable having him around and touching me. Although he seemed to be in a professional mood. It still gave me butterflies to know he was doing something which might be normal to him but intimate to me"It's hurting a little...I think we should wait for Cassy" I said and reached for my hair trying to feel it but I ended up touching his hand instead. I froze when he rested his hand above mine. The warmth from his palm extended to mine and my heart skipped a few beats"It's okay...just relax...I'll take care of this" he whispered, I had to say Victor was an exceptional man. He was full of surprises that shocked me every time he did something. He was gentle despite how aggressive he appeared to the eye"This way...I'll apply some hair gel to soften it" he mumbled and took a clear bottle with some jelly yellowish liquid in it. He already told me I made a mistake with what I added t
(Vivienne)I was even more nervous when the car finally stopped by the main entrance to the building. I didn't know if this was a hotel or some resort or even an estate judging by the long drive to the main building. I had to say Victor was such a show-off. From the first gate, there was tight security. Of course, I understood he was a big deal, and since the event was such an important one. He was bound to be careful not to have any guests with bad intentions"Now this is what I call...a rich people's party"it was Casey who said as soon as we got out of the car she came to my side and held my hand. Both of us were the only ones out of place. Knowing I haven't attended a party like this one other than the one back in Oxford with Victor"Come on…"we heard Monica say as soon as the security men opened the door for her. She was looking elegant and hot in her denim midi dress, it was sparkly and the entire back up to her waist was exposed in front, there was a deep V-line that parted her
(Vivienne)By now I was joined by her and Justin. I didn't know why the two men were with me since Castro excused himself but at least I was surrounded by familiar faces. Of course, they were talking to me and my attention and all my mind and my whole body was with Victor. But looking at the man. He seemed busy with the female doctor. Monica left them alone and now Martha seemed to be enjoying Victor's presence. Two men in tuxedos were standing with him and I guess they were talking about hospital stuff or maybe a business related matter"So you mean...very soon her belly will be so big like a train?"It was Kyan who asked Justin since all he was doing was asking doctor Justin about me and the baby. "Yeah...but not...like a train Kyan"Justin replied more nervously as if he didn't want to hurt my feelings. I heard whenever women got pregnant. They became less attractive and men didn't even spare them a glance due to their big tummies and looking at mine. It was getting bigger by the da
"So this is all the old man's doing...he started something...there were ups and downs...but with time I learned when you are an Ellison…"Victor said through the mic while standing on the stage as the crowd fixed their eyes on him listening to his speech "you wouldn't be called the best if you haven't fallen a few times and suffered some bruises" he said the last words and everyone laughed knowing he was joking. For him he was serious. His father started the company from scratch and went through hell to build it and make it known. He was the true founder and he was so passionate about his work"We are here to bring out the best...to give more job opportunities and grow in size," he said and before he even finished, the people listening to him started clapping. He wasn't so good at addressing a crowd but since he was the boss, he had to do so. His dad never missed a year to celebrate the company's success. He always attended such functions and saw how much people respected his father. A
(Vivienne)I was on the verge of losing myself. I didn't understand how I felt something so powerful for someone in just a short period. This wasn't me, I never got to this extent where I depended on someoneI always considered love to be a weakness. I watched my friends fall in love and I didn't even want to talk about it but with just Victor's touch. My body melted t for his stronghold on me, I would have fallen"Mmm," a moan left my lips when Victor softened the kiss. After a while of sharing a deep kiss, he finally left my mouth leaving some space for me to gasp for air. My breathing was unstable as he caressed my face, calming me down. My hands slipped around his neck and he pulled me up so I was now standing on my tippy toes. For a second I thought he was going to say anything but there was silence between us. His soft smooth hands caressed my face and I just looked at him. There was more said with actions and wordsI wanted to know what he felt whenever he was with me. What dif
