He was dressed in a black designer shirt that tucked into a jean. He folded the arm of the shirt, exposing his arms that were designed with different tattoos. The first two buttons of his shirt were left undone, giving him the hot playboy look. He looked at himself in the mirror one last time. His black hair was gelled and curled backwards. On his neck was a simple, yet expensive gold necklace and he wore a diamond watch to compliment his dressing. He wasn't a sucker for jewelries, so he loved using few pieces on his dressing. He stepped out of the house into his Mercedes AMG CLS 53 and zoomed off.

He arrived at the hotel, the venue for the dinner less than twenty minutes later. It was a multi-million five star rated hotel he had bought and transformed few years ago. He took the elevator to the restaurant section of the hotel and was greeted politely by the security. He had recognized Jack as the CEO. He went to the VIP section and took a seat close to the huge glass window. He had se

He was going on a working visit to his hotel. It has been over three months since he had last visited.The uber parked inside the hotel and he stepped out. He walked inside through the big glass door and bumped into someone.“I'm so sorry.” He apologized but the man walked away, not sparing him a glance. He was dressed in a grey hoodie with big boots. His head was bent low as he walked out of the door.“Strange” Jack muttered as he watched the stranger he bumped into walk out of the door. He walked to the front desk and was immediately recognized by the staff there.“Good morning sir.” She greeted politely and he responded.

    Karen walked into one of the most popular fast food restaurant dressed in a blue jumpsuit and white Jordan kicks. Her hair was combed perfectly and left to fall on her shoulders from under the head warmer she wore. It has been a week since she suddenly became a celebrity and so far, celebrity life has been stressful for her. From the tons of messages and tags she received on social media daily to the few times she had been cornered by a mob of fans at the mall where she had gone to get something. She had walked in when she noticed the stares and whispering that rose from the people at the mall. She had first thought she was dressed inappropriately but after some group of girls walked up to ask her if she was Karen, she realized that the people were staring because of the rumors. Word on the street was that she was a model and with her perfect figure and great fashion sense, it was hard to dispute that. Due to the fact that she was thought to be a model, different agencies had contac

    The doorbell dinged and she panicked slightly. She smoothened her long black dress and rearranged her hair one more time before she walked up to the door. She pulled the door open and stood nervously in front on Jack who was leaning slightly on the door frame. He was dressed in dark jeans pants and a blue shirt that was tucked in with the first two buttons of the shirt left undone, exposing a bit of his tattooed chest. His hands were in his pockets as he stood lazily against the frame, staring at her. He cleared his throat slightly and she caught herself, looking down in embarrassment.It had taken him about an hour to finally prepare for the dinner. He wasn't someone that was ever nervous, but today had kept him completely wrecked. After getting home from work, he took a quick shower before walking into the closet in search of what to wear. He had previously tried on over four jeans and seven shirts before finally settling for the dark jeans and blue shirt he wore. All the clothes he

    Throughout the ride home, his eyes burnt with unshed tears as he remembered her words. She didn't know he was behind the door so she didn't realize he was listening to everything she said. His hands pressed the steering tightly as he horned loudly at the cars, trying to navigate through the busy road till he finally got home. Once he arrived, he parked his car carelessly on the driveway and jumped out, walking into his house in fury.He had planned to make a quick stop at her house that morning to congratulate her on the show she had the previous day and invite her for dinner, but now, his plans were scattered. Everything was totally ruined. He screamed loudly as he punched the wall in front of him making his knuckles bleed.“When I thought I could love again, she played me. it was all about her, only about her.” He screamed. Hle threw a painting to the ground making it crash and break to pieces. He raked his hands through his hair in frustration as he smiled out in pains. His knuckles

    Jack drove through the beautiful brightly illuminated street that led to Karen's house. She now lived in one of the expensive and luxurious estates in Los Angeles. Not the most expensive, but one that was definitely high classed. He listened to the tunes that played from the car stereo as he drove composedly along the now less busy road, bumping his head occasionally to his favourite parts of the songs. He slowed down and diverted into the smaller road that cut off the highway and led to the estate where she lived. His mind wandered to the different events that had gone down in his life in the past months before settling on Karen. “It was meant to just be a little publicity show to help me and show I've fallen in love with him and I can't even tell him the truth. I'm fucked up.” Her words replayed in his mind and he gripped the steering wheel tightly, shutting his eyes tight in the process. His knuckles turned white as his face hardened. He opened his eyes and his demeanour displayed

    He walked into the sitting room and took a seat on one of the single couches while she went into her bedroom. She dropped her hand bag on the dressing table and went to sit on the bed to pull off her heels. She pulled off the heels, massaging her feet gently.Jack sat on the chair, cross legged as he stared round her sitting room. Many things had changed since the last time he had visited. It now looked more beautiful and luxurious. He stared at her photos that hung on one side of the wall. It consisted of photos of different gigs. He stood up and walked over to have a closer look.“She is really pretty." he stated to himself, running his large hand on one of the photos where she posed in a bikini. He continued staring at the photos, and a few moments later, he felt two hands wrap around his abdomen. His body tensed at the sudden contact as he felt her body leaning into him before he relaxed.“I've missed you a lot.” She stated, wrapping her hands on his body that was covered with heav

    Jack sat on his chair behind his large office table. His laptop was switched on and placed in front of him while different documents were littered on his table. He looked tired, his sleeves were rolled mid arm and the first two buttons of his shirt were left open. He typed away into his laptop with every bit of concentration. He had come into the office at his usual time, early and prompt. He had sealed the contract deal and now, it was time for some paperwork. He had been working on his laptop for over two hours now and was almost done. He finished working on the documents and emailed it to his secretary who was to send it to Holt Inc.“Check your email. I've sent a document. Forward it to the client.” He said into the telephone after the call had connected.“Yes sir." She replied from the other side of the call and he dropped the call, relaxing into his chair. It was still morning and his work for the day had just ended.

She no longer knew what to believe“Can you give me your mail address so that I will forward the pieces of evidence your father sent to me.” the secretary said and she called out her mail address. “I will drop the call now.

Whoever shot that had a lot of precision.He called for help and Damian was rushed to the hospital. Few minutes after getting to the hospital, he was declared dead.With no more evidence and the death of the only testifier they had, the investigations into the deep four were put on hold.**Few months later**After the death of Damian, calm returned to Jack. His company was now performing very well. It had been many months since Karen left, but he lived every day with the conviction that she was going to return one day.

    “No”“Yes. I'll be waiting for you.” he pulled her into a hug before kissing her on the forehead. “Be a good boy, kiddo.” he turned to Jayden and roughened his hair.“Now, go.” he muttered and stepped back. Tears welled up in Karen's eye as he stared at him before turning and pulling her box inside the airport building.***Meanwhile, the news of Damian's arrest had spread all over the city. Jack had made the police keep the reason for his arrest a top tier secret, however, there were already speculations flying about. His company had since been shut down for investigation over corruption charges and interrogation intensified. Seeing the turn of events, most of his investors had pulled out, leaving the company to crumble.“Hope this interests you.” the attorney stated, pushing a document to him on the table they sat. Damian picked it up and stared at the content before looking at the attorney. “Your company has been shut down, your investors have left, and there are fresh charges of

If not for the timely push Jack had pushed her, maybe it would have hit her chest.Jack rushed to her side and tried to lift her up. The muscles in his body failed him, making him almost fall forward. Harry rushed to his aid, and together, they helped Karen to the car. Jack tore a piece of his clothing to tie Karen's wond while Harry drove to the hospital.They arrived at the hospital thirty minutes later.

    The loud buzzing of Karen's phone woke her up from her sleep. She had slept late the previous night. She picked up her phone from the nightstand and checked the time. It was few minutes past six am. Who the fuck was disturbing her sleep by this time of the morning!“It better be something good.” she muttered before opening the message. The message was short from an unsaved contact. It contained an address and direction to the address with a simple text that read “Jack's location. ” She jumped out of the bed, her heart beat increasing.She quickly brushed, washed her face and changed into another cloth before placing a call to Harry “Good morning Harry. Please, get the cops on standby. I think I have information on Jack's whereabouts. I'll meet you in your house in ten minutes.” She spoke breathlessly without giving him a chance to respond. She dropped the call and kissed Jayden on the forehead before picking him.She rushed out to her car, put Jayden at the backseat and took the wheels

    She crashed to the chair slowly and Harry rushed to her side. He got the phone from her and checked the content of the text. His expression darkened as he finished reading the text.“When did he send this?” he directed the question at Karen.“Two days ago. He left here angrily and I haven't heard from him since then.” She answered.“We need to inform the police. This may be bigger than us.” Harry spoke. They all drove to the police station. Harry met with the inspector and filed a missing complaint. He showed the police the text Jack had sent and Karen informed him of how he had stormed out angrily.“I need this search to remain secret. None of these must get to the press or anybody in the public.” Harry cautioned.“Be rest assured, Mr Blake. We will find Mr Antonio very soon, and none of this will get to the public.” The inspector replied. Harry nodded in understanding and shook hands with the inspector before walking out. The police soon began the search. They visited some of the h

    “Hello, Jack Antonio.” Damian called out his name scornfully. He smoked from the pipe in his hand, puffing the air out through nose.Jack remained silent, fixing a deep glare at him. His phone was switched off inside his pocket. At that point, he only hoped she had gotten the text and was planning another line of action. A smirk spread on his lips at the thought of ridiculing Damian.“You are now a drug dealer, huh?” he smirked. “It makes a lot of sense now. You needed a lot of money to compete and keep up with me.” Jack added with a sly smile. Damian remained calm as he puffed smoke from his pipe.“I told you this is a battle, not a war and I'll always be victorious.” Damian got up from the chair and walked up to Jack. He dragged his smoke for some seconds, puffing the smoke on Jack's face. “And what did you say about Karen being your woman?”“Guess who has a one year old child with her?” Jack smirked in a bid to spite Damian.“Guess whose child is gonna grow up without a father.” Da

    Karen sighed before speaking up. “Is there anything to talk about?”“Of course. There are a lot of things to talk about.” Jack replied. He walked closer to her untill he stood few feet away from her. “Lets talk about us. I know I fucked up massively and I am really sorry. All I'm asking for is that you forgive me and give me one more chance, let's build our future together.”Karen stared at him as he finished speaking. Her stare was long and piercing. She got up from the chair, walked to fridge in the dinning room and pulled out two bottles of water before returning. She handed one bottle to Jack and uncapped her's, drinking a little quantity.“You clearly broke up with me. You wronged me greatly, and I don't wanna go back to that past.” she replied, defiant.“You-” he paused, stopping his sentence at the beginning before running his fingers through his hair. He realized if he wanted to win her back, he had to be calm. “What about Jayden?” he finally asked.“I will take care of him. I
