As Paxton got home his Cousin Lydia came down and she was hell-bent on talking about Sydney the entire time."Hey brother, I see how you look at Sydney and she is Jaxton's woman what do you want to do with her?" she asked"Wait what do you mean what don't want to do with her? Isn't she Paxton's woman and we are supposed to love her" Paxton said avoiding the question she was driving at.“C’mon Paxton I know you love her more than you are showing!" she said taking him aback ” But how can I? She is Jaxton's girlfriend" he said still dodging the matter she was pressing at."You look tired by the way," she said."No, I don't" look tired I've rested Lydia," he said pushing her hand off his face.”Just take a look at yourself in the mirror..your eyes are puffed from lack of sleep for how long would you continue depriving yourself of sleep?""Aah, Lydia who called you in here, you've been bugging me since you came would you cut me some slack?" he said as he pushed his cousin out of the room.
Chapter 88After the day off Sydney felt light and relief although she had now begun to think of her stance with Jaxton.She wasn't feeling the vibes with Jaxton anymore.At every turn, she somehow had her mind on Paxton and that felt like cheating to herShe was energetic because the product they had launched not too long ago had been in high demand and she had to help with the production department as she gave them instructions on what to do and how to label and customise some of the things.As she entered her office she saw a bouquet waiting for her and she was surprised and taken aback.First, of she felt it was Jaxton who had kept the flower on her desk.She made it a note to call him later and thank him but before she could finish having thought he beat her to it."Hey babe, did you see the flowers I left for you?" "Yea I just did thank you so much I love them" big lies her favourites flowers weren't white roses, if they were red Rose she would have managed them she loved Lilie
Chapter 89Sydney got to the menu from the table and scan through it until she finally got what she wanted to have for lunch."I'll have the Chipotle please," she said and Jaxtom was just staring at her.All the ladies he had ever dated were always receptive to what he wanted to give them but looking at Sydney she didn't look or sound like someone who was going to succumb that easily to him.Jaxton excused himself to go into the bathroom to ease himself but looking at it he spent even more time than he was supposed to.Twenty minutes went by and still, he had not returned.This already began to disturb Sydney because she knew he was not the type to fool around.She was already getting annoyed and was about to leave when on turning she noticed he was coming back from the entrance area."Babe I am extremely sorry" he began to apologise but she wasn't having it because she was pissed with him, she had things to do at the office and she made her waste at least twenty-five minutes at the r
Chapter 90As they looked at the Cctv footage it was shown that it was a colleague of theirs."Ah, it is Clara from the HR department," the man managing the electricity said."Can we call her?" Jaxton said fuming.He understood Stdney had urged them to keep their relationship on the low but due to his jealousy he somehow had made it known which wasn't a bother.But the fact that this want took upon herself to go and take pictures for whatever reason she has to explain to them what she was doing there."Yes sir you called me?" she came in with a scared look on her face."Who sent you?" were the first words to leave Jaxton's lips and he looked like he was going to pounce on her any minute if she didn't tell him what she was up to and who had sent her."Nobody sir"." Why were you taking pictures of Sydney and me?" he asked her and she stood there confused and frightened she had not thought they would see her da e or even call her.But that was where she slipped because of course the com
Chapter 91Seeing that Paxton was becoming overly concerned with his girlfriend's well-being and Sydney was almost hugging him he jumped in."I handled the situation already and Clara has been sent home at least for a week with no compensation that should be enough to calm her craziness down" Jaxton explained."Oh brother, you sure didn't need to explain to me right you are a co-owner of the company too and whatever you did was for the betterment of the company trust me I love your judgments," he said and then walked out of the room to curb the awkward situation.As Paxton walked out of the office he just felt like he should have been the one to have saved Sydney, she looked scared when he entered although she tried her best not to show it he knew she was super scared and it was normal.But what could he do? As Lydia had said he just had to behave like he wasn't in love with her like he had been pretending.His cousin understood what was going on but she too could not hurt one cousin
Chapter 92The date was seemingly going on too well and he was getting to know Angie better than he had thought he would."So should we call this a night or you've got other plans?" Angie asked."Unless you have something else in mind u are some for the night and if you don't mind I could drop you off " Paxton politely said."Oh, what a gentleman you are but hold up are you just trying to get to know my house now?" she asked with a raised brow."Would that be such a bad idea if I knew a beauty like you, where she lived?" he asked her since he noticed she was flirting around he too decided there was no harm intend to flirt back.What were the odds thus could lead to him having his boner cut ex this night and he could have her screaming his name and be hung for more?"Well I brought my car and would love to drive myself home maybe some other time you could pick me up and drive me home and you might just get a gift out of that," she said with a smile toy thing his cheek."Oh you tempt me
Chapter 93After leaving Angie's house Paxton somehow felt bad for telling her he just wanted to get laid and what could he have done?Call him an asshole and he was going to accept it but he didn't see how telling her he would date her was the best lie he could say to her at the moment.Telling her the truth was the best decision he had done for himself at the moment if anything, Paxton was one to speak the truth and not make a woman sad because of his selfish gains.He left that role to his brother Jaxton who was the lady's man.He didn't want to go back home with a boner and seeing the way things were if he had told this curvaceous pretty woman he had been thinking of someone else while he pumped her up she just might go berserk on him and tear his tummy to shred.He got home took a bath and headed for the office he didn't know how he would face Sydney, not like they were daring but somehow he felt like he had betrayed her.*****Sydney was at the office when suddenly she had what
Chapter 94As she was about to respond to his question her phone pinged notifying her that there was a message."There is a message for all the staff to meet up for the new proposal for the product, and I have got to go," she said as she turned and made her way out of the corridor.As she went out of the corridor she could hear him curse under his breath but she didn't care about that at the moment."Look Sydney I am sorry for the way I behaved" he started but she didn't look at him she couldn't handle his heat at the moment."Your cousin even greeted you but you didn't respond because you wanted to come will you think I am into your brother?""Jaxton shame on you and trust me you would regret your behaviour if you do not curb your stupid anger " she continued as she turned and began to make her way to her office.He felt like a jerk for making her feel that way he knew he was way out of line.And he didn't even know why he has been angry that day.Or maybe it was because Paxton didn'
Chapter 120Sydney was so lost staring into his eyes with shock and Confusion that she didn't realize when he got so close to her that she could even feel his breath and listen to his heart beating hard against his chest. Sydney pulled her face away from him immediately. "No, this is too good to be true," she whispered to herself. He thought that he had some hidden agenda that he was trying to hide from her and trap her into it before she was going to realize it. "He thinks I am such a dumbass," she thought in her head. "I will have to run away immediately before he begins to unveil his true reason for coming here," she said to herself. She got set immediately. She calculated when she was going to run away from him in her head. "On a one, two three, go.." she finalized and tried to run but he caught her in the air. She tried hard to break free from her strong grip but he held her so tightly that her skin cells could hardly breathe.She stared into his eyes and he stared back into
Chapter 119 With every single step that he took, his heart raced ten times faster and he was gasping for breath like someone that just finished a race. *Signs*After much inquiry, Paxton discovered that Sydney was now working as a waitress in one of the restaurants. "What should I do now," he said to him in his car, hitting his hands on the story. "Go to her house or her workplace," he thought again. But then, a thought crossed his mind that answered all his questions. "Would you want a public embarrassment?" A voice rang in his head. Paxton thought about his for some time and decided that it would be preferable to go to her house. He could feel his heart beating hard against his chest as though it was going to burst through as he drove his car to her house. When he got there, the door was bolted just as he had expected. "I will just have to wait for her here," he said to himself as another long line of laughter escaped from his mouth.Meanwhile, Sydney was just returning from w
CHAPTER 118Chapter 118Jaxton stared into his eyes with a racing heart, still contemplating if what he was going to say would get him angry or not. Then he asked him the question first. "His anything the matter?" Paxton inquired noticing that Jaxton was a little bit unsettled. Seeing this as the perfect opportunity, Jaxton dropped down to the ground and picked up the photo of Sydney on the floor."It's about her," Jaxton returned showing the photo to him but immediately he saw her photo, his eyes shit back into their sockets in sudden grief and he shook his head side by side. "No, I don't want to talk about her. Not now, not ever," Paxton returned. Jaxton's heart sank with disappointment but he wasn't just going to give up like that, he was going to press until he agreed. "But," he tried to say but Paxton would not listen to a single word that he had to say. "No buts," he returned. "I only told you that I don't want to talk about her," he ended. But as Paxton already knew, Jaxto
CHAPTER 117 FINALLY, the day for the stakeholders' meeting came. Hearts pounded, the tension rose, arrangements were being made and even calls for celebration.That morning, Jaxton got dressed as soon as he could into his White suit worth over ten thousand dollars. He had to present himself well to the stakeholders as the next CEO of the company in place of his father. He was so sure that his brother Paxton was unaware of whatever was around and he was going to take him unaware. A dark smile hovered on his face as he thought about taking over the company. "I can't even imagine the look on his face with it would be announced to him," he thought in his head as a dark laughter escaped from his mouth."And once I get this position, I will be able to get Sydney back," he said to himself"I can't wait to see that look on his face when Paxton would be eventually dismissed as the CEO.When he got to the venue for the event, most of the stakeholders were already seated. A smile hovered on
CHAPTER 116 Paxton stared into the stakeholder's eyes as cold shivers ran down his spine and streams of sweat were already forming at the corner of his eyes. "I can't believe you, my twin brother can't betray me this way after all we had gone through together," he returned with his heart beating hard against his chest as though it was going to burst through. "And why should I be lying to you" the stallholder returned without a trace of Deciet in his his eyes. Paxton Didn't know who to trust or whom to believe, him or my blood brother. "I can show you proof of it," he returned.Paxton watched him as he brought out his phone from his pocket and showed the message that he had gotten from Jaxton and he felt as though he had been trust a dagger right in the heart. "What are you going to do now?" The stallholder inquired. Paxton felt betrayed and he could feel his anger rising so badly that he had to clutch his hands to control my rising anger. "How could you do this to me Jaxton?"
Chapter 115Paxton POV"I swear boss, I would find a means to attach more finances to the already dilapidated market. Just give me time." The words coming out from Justin, the marketing directors were utterly irritating and even propelled my already sour mood."You had one week Justin, one week to make things right. We both know it was your fault that the stock dropped. You were too negligent, too lazy to take the risks that I so desire from you." Despite his stupidity, I tried my best to remain calm, as emotions were only meant to be expressed by the weak."Boss, please give me one more week. I swear to you, one more week and we would be back on top again. One more fucking week boss." I had his termination letter waiting."Take that brown envelope and get the fuck out of my office." I instructed. Slowly I observed his hesitation, before eventually walking towards the brown envelope. Once Justin unveiled the content of the envelope, he dropped to his knees begging."You don't want me
Chapter 114"Feelings? The night at Hawaii? If anyone had told me that something had happened between you both in Hawaii, I would have slit such a person's throat off." Jaxton had obviously eavsdropped on our conversation. I looked around to see Paxton was up on his feet and the look of guilt was expressed in his countenance."I knew something was off about selecting Sydney to go with you to Hawaii. Heck I was the stupid one. I should have realized right on time that you both had a thing going on." "Jaxton." He shushed me up as as I tried to speak."You do not speak when I am talking to my brother." His words were filled with venom and his eyes held so much rage in them. This was the dangerous version of Jaxton, that I never thought would exist."So tell me brother, how was it? Was it intense? I bet you enjoyed her sucking down your dick and going all the way to your nutsack." Jaxton playing mind games was seriously getting to not only Paxton but myself."Don't speak about her in su
Chapter 113Sydney POV.Several works to be completed in the office today, but my mind wasn't focused. The memories of the night in Hawaii kept replaying in my head. While the night was fun filled; from my perspective, I knew above everything that it had implications. Regardless of the fact that Paxton may have dropped his unruly attitude towards me, I still can't get over the fact that Jaxton would blow the roof off with his rage, when he hears of my sexual adventure with his brother. The situation was complicated and one that I wish above everything never to happen. While filling up some of the loopholes, left in the documents, the telephone buzzed."Hello?" "My office, now." Paxton's deep voice came through the other side. My heart rate increased and anxiety crept through my skin, wondering what he would think of our adventures. None of us had been able to have a meaningful conversation about it and while it could mean nothing to him, it meant everything to me.Staring at the i
Chapter 112Paxton and Sydney had been back from New York for a few months before they decided to binge-watch a movie together just for the sake of being happy.They both agreed on a funny romantic comedy, laughing and joking throughout. As the night went on, things got more heated between them and soon enough they were making out. It felt right and natural at the moment. Before they knew it, they were in Paxton’s bedroom and things escalated quickly. They both wanted it, and they were soon having sex. Even though they were both consenting adults, Sydney felt a twinge of regret afterwards. She hadn't expected things to move so fast and wasn't sure if she was ready for the complexities that come with a relationship. Paxton was just as confused. He had feelings for her, but he also knew they were new to each other and the enormity of what had just happened was starting to sink in. They both opted to take a step back and try to process everything that had happened. In the end, th
