He’s not my father, my father is dead to me” she said as she gave him back the car key and then walked back inside the house angrily. Brandon sighed softly and was about to walk inside the house when Arianna’s car drove inside the compound.The octuplets who had seen Brandon from inside the car, rushed out of the car and ran toward him. “Daddy” They called and all hugged him at once. “Sweethearts” Brandon smiled as he ruffled their hairs one after the other and they all giggled. “Hey mom” Brandon muttered to Arianna who was now standing in front of him.“Brandon, did you buy a new car?” Arianna asked and Brandon nodded with a weird look on his face. “Oh, Uhm kids, go to your room now. I’ll call you guys for dinner shortly” Arianna said and the kids nodded and ran inside the house happily.“What’s wrong? And why is there a new car here?” Arianna asked the moment the kids left.“I bought the car for Hannah but she rejected it because she thinks I bought it for her to convince her t
“Get out of my way Brandon-““I’m sorry alright, I’m sorry. I get it, I was selfish and stupid wanting you to see your father when you do not want to. Although He told me he would sign with our company on my terms and he wanted me to talk to you but..”“And you accepted,” Hannah said in response, “I told him I would try, but that wasn’t the reason I bought the car. I paid for it a few weeks back, it just arrived today. I felt you needed to hear him out, he’s still your father no matter how you try to deny it. Sooner or later you would have to talk to him. He just wants to talk to you that’s all, but it’s your choice, I’m not forcing you to.Whatever you decide, I’ll support you” he said and she stared at him for a few seconds and then looked away. “Fine, I forgive you, just stop doing that eye thing you do all the time. Same thing the octuplets do all the time” she said trying to avoid his gaze and he smiled. “What eye thing?” He asked in a whisper as he moved closer to her leavi
“Alex, leave the kitchen, I and my wife want some privacy-““But sir….” “Alex, I said leave the kitchen-“ he said as he turned to Alex who had a fearful look on his face.“Brandon…” Hannah called and Brandon turned to her.“Yes honey,” he said but then paused when he saw the look on Hannah’s face, while she was staring at a particular place.“The chicken is on fire” Hannah yelled and Brandon turned swiftly only to see the pot of oil and chicken on fire.“Oh my God!” Brandon yelled as he ran to switch off the gas while Hannah quickly covered the pot thereby putting them off the fire.Alex quickly opened all the windows.Hannah and Brandon started coughing, as they walked out of the kitchen.They both stared at each other and burst into laughter and suddenly they both stopped laughing and stared at each other.Hannah sighed.“How can you forget the chicken was on fire, the house would have caught fire, “ Hannah said and Brandon shrugged.“I would have gotten a new one,” Brandon said an
“But I don’t have anywhere else to go?-““You can sleep on the street, we all know you belong there,” Arianna said and with that, she walked away. Lisa stared at her looking speechless. Guess I was wrong, she’s nothing like Hannah who is soft-hearted.Whatever! I’m not apologizing anymore. I don’t even know why I apologized In the first place when I did nothing, she thought, and then walked out of the house, going to the swimming pool area, to chill in the pool.Meanwhile, Jessica who had left the house is seen in a bar looking wasted when her worst nightmare suddenly approaches her. It was no other person than Jeff. He scoffed the moment he saw her. “Look who’s in the bar all alone and wasted. Where is your brother, or your gigolo husband, he’s not here to save you” Jeff said and Jessica stared at her and looked away.“I’m talking to you Jessica,” Jeff said as he frowned. He gripped her hand and she winced in pain. “Let go of me Jeff, let me go,” she said as he pulled her up an
Just then they heard a knock on the front door.“Alex, please get the door,” Arianna said and Alex nodded and rushed to the door. He opened the door only to see a strange guy carrying Jessica in her arms. “This is Colby's mansion right?” Humphery asked and Alex nodded. Arianna and Lucas stood up when they heard a male voice ask if this was Colby’s mansion.“Who’s at the door, Alex?” Arianna asked as they got to the door and to their surprise they saw a strange guy holding Jessica in his arms. Jessica was unconscious. “Oh my goodness! What happened to her?” Arianna asked as the look on her face changed at once. “She was drunk and I brought her home” Humphrey quickly explained leaving out the part where Jeff tried taking her away. Lucas stared at Humphrey and then carried Jessica from him. “Uhm, I’ll be on my way now,” Humphrey said but then paused when Arianna spoke. “What’s your name?” Arianna asked. “Humphrey, “ he said and Arianna nodded. “Thank you, Humphery,” Arianna said
“Come over here,” he said and then winked at her. Hannah blinked twice and her senses came back to normal.She then ran out of the bathroom. She felt her heart palpitating. “Calm down Hannah, calm down” she kept saying to herself as she kept reminiscing about what she had seen in the bathroom.She quickly put on her clothes and was about to walk out of the room when Brandon suddenly called her name and then she suddenly froze.She turned and then opened her eyes wide when she saw him standing by the bathroom door.He steps fully inside the room, water still dripping from his hair and skin. He's wrapped in a towel, which is cinched around his waist, leaving his broad shoulders and muscular arms exposed. His hair is mussed from the shower, and the water glistens on his skin, accentuating the contours of his body.She swallowed into nothing as she stared at him.How can someone be so handsome, hot, attractive, irresistible, sexy, and wealthy at the same time? Oh my goodness!!“Where
“Doing what I should have done long ago” he said as he placed her on the bed and suddenly came upon her. Oh my goodness, he’s going to have sex with me, she thought as she opened her eyes and then quickly closed it.Brandon chuckled and laid beside her staring at the ceiling, with a smile on his lips. Hannah never ceased to amaze him. When he thought he already knew everything about her, She came up with a new, different thing, he thought as he kept on smiling. Hannah on the other hand opened her eyes when she didn’t hear the sound of Brandon again. She wondered where she had gone.She turned and saw Brandon lying beside her. Brandon turned and their gaze interlocked. She quickly looked away and closed her eyes, making Brandon laugh. “Seriously?” He muttered as he chuckled while staring at Hannah’s beautiful face. Hannah opened her eyes and then saw Brandon staring at her. She felt her cheeks turn red immediately. “Has anyone told you how beautiful you are? You are uniquely bea
“You can drive your new car to the company today, it's yours,” he said and she stared at him for a few seconds and then took the keys. “Ride with me to the company,” she said and Brandon hummed and nodded in response.They both walked out of the house and went to the car. Hannah hopped inside the driver's seat while Brandon entered the passenger seat.Hannah stared at Brandon while they both put on the seat belt.Hannah ignited the engine and then zoomed off. Meanwhile, Hannah and Brandon are seen inside the car, while Hannah drives. A lot of cars behind her were blowing horns because she was too slow and was causing traffic.“Is this how you drive to work when you are by yourself?” Brandon asked and Hannah turned to him and then turned to the road. “What?” she asked. “You are too slow. You are driving 20 kilometers per hour, Hannah. The car is barely moving” he said and she sighed.“I'm trying not to be too fast. This is a new car Brandon and it should be handled with care” Hanna
It was morning and Hannah had woken up early. She woke up feeling energized and all.She had brought out her laptop and sent messages to all the members of the board except Brandon that there was going to be a Meeting today.After which she got dressed. She made sure she looked her best and dressed in a way Brandon would stare at her and would not be able to resist her looks.After which she hopped in her car, and zoomed off to the company. Her car came to a stop at the company, she walked straight to her office.A lot of people seemed to be surprised to see her, they probably thought she was there to hand over the position to Isabella Edward but they didn't know she was there to take over. She checked her time and saw it was time for the meeting. She took her laptop and some important files, after which she walked out of her office and locked the door to the office, taking the key with her so that no one would be able to get in. She walked to the board room and met everyone sitting
Hannah pulled away from the kiss and glared at his charming eyes. She glared at his wet plump lips from the kiss and then walked away from him. Brandon made to move towards her again but she shifted back. Just then Brandon heard his phone ring, he brought out his phone and checked his caller’s ID and then answered the phone call.“I'm on my way,” he said and ended the call and then glared at Hannah one more time before walking out of the room, closing the door behind him. She wondered who had called him. The thought of Isabella being the one who called him made her want to puke. She wondered where Isabella had come from, she was out of town the last time she checked and this was Linda’s plan all this while, Hannah scoffed and shook her head.She moved towards the door to see if it was locked from the outside but it wasn't. She opened the door and walked out of the room. She decided to go downstairs and drink water.She walked downstairs and to her greatest surprise she saw Linda in
Hannah had just gotten home from the event. She didn’t waste any time, instead, she walked straight to her room upstairs and brought out her clothes from the wardrobe.She brought out her luggage and started arranging her clothes in it and suddenly the door to the room opened and Brandon walked in.“You left like that, we were supposed to be in the event together,” he paused when he saw luggage on the bed.“What’s going on here?” Brandon asked in deep shock as he glared at Hannah who was packing her clothes.Hannah raised her head, glared at him, and looked away, proceeding with what she was doing without saying a word.“You are leaving?” Brandon asked and Hannah still didn’t say a word.“I’m talking to you, are you leaving?” He asked again, probably not believing what was happening right in front of him.“I’m no longer needed in the company Brandon, you kicked me out and made your ex-girlfriend the new COO. What do you need me for?” Hannah asked as she raised her head and glared at h
“What?” Hannah opened her mouth wide in shock at what Brandon had said. He was publicly asking her to step down as the COO because he knew if he asked her in private she would not and doing it in public in front of everyone would leave her no choice but to step down. Hannah glared back at the crowd, she caught a glimpse of Linda at the coroner of the hall with an evil smirk on her face. She knew this was all Linda’s doings. She wondered what she had told Brandon that made him want her to step down.Hannah who was already pissed tried moving away from the stage but the Brandon tightened his grip on her wrist and held her from moving, while he kept smiling.“I know you all are wondering who the new COO would be. Well, she’s someone you all know, my long-time friend and a family too, Isabella Edward ....” Brandon muttered and Isabella stepped on the stage with a broad smile on her face. Hannah opened her eyes wide in shock, she couldn’t believe what she was seeing. “What the hell is g
It was morning and Hannah was awoken by the sound of her phone ringing tone. With her sleeping eyes, she picked up her phone and answered it without checking the caller’s ID.“Hello Ma’am,” she heard Liam’s voice from the other side of the phone. She quickly opened her eyes wide.“Liam,” she muttered as she sat up properly on the bed.“Ma’am, the event is about to begin and we are waiting for you…” Liam muttered and Hannah who was confused had asked what event.“The company’s 25th anniversary,“ Liam muttered and Hannah opened her mouth wide in shock. She had completely forgotten about the event. She was so distracted with everything happening around her that she didn’t know the event was today and she wasn’t even prepared.“We are waiting for you Ma'am” Liam who didn’t hear Hannah’s voice anymore muttered jolting Hannah out of her thoughts again.“Of course, I’m on my way, Liam,” she said and ended the call: she checked the time on her phone and saw it was past 12.“Shit!” She muttere
“I didn’t, Linda showed me these pictures and told me you are having an affair, I do not want to believe it…” he muttered softly.“Then you shouldn’t…, can’t you see your mom is trying to come between us. You should do your research before believing what you are being told”“And I did my research and found out you truly bought the condo unit. Are you planning on leaving me or divorcing me?”“No, I can explain that…”“No Hannah, I do not want an explanation, save it…”“I don’t know what Linda told you but I expect you not to believe them…”“Oh please, save it. She was right, You’ve been playing me this whole time. Did you ever love me like you said?…” “Can you hear yourself right now Brandon?” She muttered, staring at him with a shock-filled expression.“I’m out of here, have a good night,” Hannah muttered as she took her bag and car keys and walked past Brandon and he didn’t try to stop her from leaving. She walked out of the house. She entered her car, ignited the engine, and drove
It was afternoon and Brandon was back from the meeting he had gone to. Hannah, who had received the information that he was back, went to his office.She planted a soft knock on the door and pushed the door open. There she met Brandon going through some files on his table.“Brandon!!” Hannah called and he hummed without staring at her face. Hannah paused for a second waiting for him to raise his head and at least acknowledge her presence but it seems she was waiting in vain.She then proceeded to what she had come for.“Brandon, your mom, she needs to be out of this company. She just fired two of our employees today. She’s putting this company at risk…” Hannah paused waiting for him to speak but he didn’t say a word neither did he raise his head.Hannah gritted her teeth. She took a deep breath and sighed.“Brandon I am talking to you,” Hannah yelled and Brandon raised his head immediately.“Were you even listening to me?” Hannah asked with a look of surprise on her face. “Yes, I was
Meanwhile, Hannah stared at Brandon looking surprised at his decision.She sighed softly. Brandon was joking, there was no way Linda would work at the company. She would not allow it, never.It was morning the next day and Hannah had gotten dressed up for work. She had left in her car all alone since Brandon left early because he needed to see a client, who was waiting for him at the company early.The moment she arrived at the company, she saw all the workers gossiping and everywhere looked ununiformed. But the moment they saw her, everywhere became as silent as hell.She wondered what was going on.“Welcome ma’am,”“Welcome ma’am” they all muttered while they bowed their head and she nodded. She needed no soothsayer to tell her something was going on in the company.She called one of the employees and asked her to come with her to her office. The employee nodded and walked Behind as they walked to her office.The moment they got to her office, she dropped her bag on the table and tu
Meanwhile, Hannah had gotten home early from work. She had left Brandon at the company because he needed to be somewhere with his assistant, Liam.They needed to see the ongoing project on their new site.Hannah had gotten home and taken her bath after which she had prepared dinner. There weren’t many maids in the house, just Alex the butler, and two other housekeepers. Hannah had dismissed the other to go back to their family and children since it was a holiday period. The others at the house didn’t have any family to return to so they had to stay in Colby’s mansion.She walked inside the kitchen and prepared dinner after which she set the table. While she was setting the table, she heard the front door open.She raised her head and saw Lucas walk in. He wasn’t alone. He was with no one else but Linda.Hannah swallowed into nothing as Linda gave her a strange smile and walked towards her.“Hey, I didn’t know you would be coming,” Hannah said with a smile on her face.“And I didn’t k
