Cluster Desires Chapter 27 : THE THREAT
Anthonio drove home that day not believing what he saw. He was sure the person he saw was Shawn but how could this be?Shawn died many years ago.He rubbed his eye rashly to wake up from slumber and accept reality but the reality was too shocking to accept.Antonio almost hit a truck because he was pondering hard on what he never believed.Retrieving his phone, he called Lucas Wilson, his childhood friend. Lucas was among those who helped dispose of Shawn’s body in the trench many years ago and is now the CEO of his father’s company here in Atlanta Georgia. Lucas was not taking his calls so Anthonio drove to his house instead. .Getting to Lucasvilla’, Anthonio hurried out of the car like he was being chased by an imp.“ Lucas!” Anthonio called as he entered the foyer that led to the living room. Lucas was all dressed and was about to go out “ Luca!” Anthonio called again, thrusting the door open.“ Man! What happened? What’s with a look on your face?” Lucas asked, surprised at A
Cluster Desires Chapter 28 : The mistake
The more was dull and everything seemed dead to Sophia. She has all the comfort of life but she is deprived of what she greatly values.“ Miss Sophia, can you sign, this is an ongoing collaboration between Matty Cash Empire and Starr Group” Sophia signed the document and the lady left with the office. In the past week, many companies have been seeking collaboration from Matty Cash Enterprise. Some collaborations were accepted while others weren't even attended to.For some days, Matthew has been active in the company so Sophia had to represent him in the company. Sophia was reviewing a document in Matthew’s when she got a call from Joana.She was busy but just had to answer her cousin's calls.“ Hey Joana,” She said on the phone while she controlled the mouse with her left hand.Joana’s voice was cold and Sophia could barely hear her.“ Hey, Speak up, I can barely hear you, “ Sophia said. Joana cleared her voice from the phone and said.“ You can't believe it, Sophia. Shawn has go
Cluster Desires Chapter 29 : We met again.
Sophia and Maxwell drove off in the company’s car.While Sophia sat, she kept freaking out. Matthew must not get to know the mistake she made.She kept wishing the money would be released back to them.Soon, they arrived at Voss Group and they hastily walked in.The CEO was out of the country according to what the secretary told them. Sophia almost died when the secretary announced the tragic news to her. Her phone rang. She glanced at it, it was Matthew. What do I tell him? Sophia said, panicking.She held her phone in her hands not knowing what to say to him. Her heart was pounding inside of her chest.Maxwell was with the secretary demanding they be attended to.“ Sir there’s nothing I can do. I have limited power and cannot attend to such issues “ The secretary said angrily. Maxwell was furious. If the money is not refunded, it will affect the revenue of Matty Cash Empire.“ Oh, then get someone else to attend to us. How can you be this incompetent and unprofessional?” Maxwell
Cluster Desires Chapter 30 : The weird lady
A flush of pain devoured Sophia as she sat in Shawn’s office waiting for his arrival.The throbbing headache she was having almost caused made her lose her mind.She needed Shawn's help and if he helped her, she would be dead meat. Soon, Shawn took his seat like a boss before Mr Maxwell and Sophia.“ Mr, Shawn, these people are here from the Matty Cash Empire. Our company currently wants to go on a business collaboration with them” Mr Liam introduced. Shawn waggled his chair from to the right and then to the left waiting for Mr Liam to finish. “ Mr Liam, Thank you, you may return to the office” Shawn dismissed Liam. Sophia was all gloomy. She could hardly look into Shawn’s eyes. Her demeanour was beginning to irk Maxwell who was sitting by her side. Shawn shifted his gaze, Sophia to the man next to Sophia, and said professionally.“ Welcome to Voss Group. I am Mr Shawn, senior manager of Voss Group. I just heard from Mr Liam that we are your collaborators. Nice meeting with you “
Cluster Desires Chapter 31 ; The last kiss
Sophia sat quietly in Shawn's car as he drove her. Mr Maxwell angrily drove off in the company’s car without letting her in. Matthew has been calling her since but she was too scared to take his calls. He would be mad at her for telling him lies earlier. The mayhem she had created for herself was grave.Contrary to all her problems, she was sitting in her ex-boyfriend’s car. She didn't even have the nerve to look into his face and ask Shawn if the 12 million dollars had been refunded. Maxwell did not communicate it to her so she assumed it had not been sorted out.Shawn too could not look in her direction. He avoided anything that would warrant looking in her direction and just focused his attention on the road. He wondered why Maxwell left her behind in the first place.They got stuck in the traffic and Shawn rested his back on the seat anticipating the green on the traffic light The tingling of vehicles in the heavy traffic that day was crazy. Sometimes, it took thirty minutes
Cluster Desires Chapter 32 : Heartbreak
Sophia sneakily walked inside the gate with hands slightly folded at the back in expectation of query.Matthew just drove and she can't assume he did not see her when she hugged Shawn.Matthew was still in the car trying to get out when he saw her.“ Sophia, where are you coming from ?” His voice was cold. He scanned,” These are the clothes you wore to the office. How come you still have them on?” His eyes sparkled, searching in her eyes for answers Sophia cleared her throat and walked to Matthew, feigning a smile.“ Yeah, you are right. I just got back from the office. Something bad happened and I have to sort it out before I leave” Sophia explained. The courage she developed after Shawn refunded the company's money was unpredictable. She could not believe she was the same person who was lost earlier… “ What are the things that made you return so late from the office now?” Matthew responded out of jealousy..“ We had a problem with Voss Group. They are one of those companies seek
Cluster Desires Chapter 33 : The parcel: peace or war?
The morning sun brightens up the city, casting its natural light on every roof. The chirping of love songs by the birds and the glinting of the morning sun made Sophia stretch her body while rolling on the bed.Her feet touched Matthew’s and she raised her right leg, encircling it on Matthew's body. They can't believe they slept this long and were not willing to wake up either. Sophie wanted to get out of bed but the comfort of the bed was dealing great with her body so she just gave up trying. Matthew’s Sleep too was peaceful and he wished he could just sleep on.They slept peacefully, curled in the warmth of each other's hands but were disrupted by the knock on the door.It took a repeated knock before Matthew could open his eyes faintly. “Nanny Esung, just come in” He muttered but was faintly heard. A short chubby South Korean woman in her fifties walked in carrying a parcel.“ This is for you sir, a delivery man just dropped it off for you,” She said ethically, holding the sm
Cluster Desires Chapter 34; The beast
What!” Matthew exclaimed. Derrick’s proposal was grave; putting life and death as options. He held the knife in his hands fiddling with it while thinking about his decisions. War or peace? Matthew scoffed,” What a deadly proposal “ He clenched his hands to his chin, not willing to be apprehensive. After much thought, he placed the knife back in the box and took it out of sight. Derrick must be very intelligent. His approach to things is always epic and he doesn't know how to make war unless one proposes war. A dark expression hovered over Matthew’s face. Today was Saturday. A meeting day for everyone In the squad. Glancing at the time, it was 12:02 pm. He had a lot to do that day so he hurried to the bathroom to have a bath. In the bathroom, he heard the door open. It was Sophia. “ Sophia “ he called, lowering the shower. He needs to talk to Sophia but he has limited time. Soon, Sophia came to him, walking in silence to the bathroom. “ Yes, you called me” She responded a
