ONIKA'S POV

Laura came over to me and the first thing I heard was a low whistle from beside me before she spoke up. “I watched the entire conversation and I swear that I can't determine the outcome from the look on your faces. What the hell happened? Good or bad?” She asked, sliding in the seat beside me.

I looked at her, a sad smile on my face. “Just there, I guess. He understands, I hope he does but we're cool. Maybe we'll have dinner again tomorrow or something or catch up properly”

Laura sighed and placed a hand on my shoulder, her fingers digging into my flesh from how tight she gripped me. “Honey, don't punish yourself, okay? It's not your fault that you don't like him and let me tell you now. You don't have to feel shitty in any way for it, understood?” She asked, her eyes peering into mine as she waited for an answer.

I couldn't help it, I laughed slightly at that and nodded to that. “Yes ma'am”

She leaned back in her seat. “Man, who would have ever thought your love life wou

    NATHAN'S POVThe way her eyes lit up as I pulled to a stop made every doubt I had about choosing this place for our date disappear. She looked ethereal with that goofy grin on her face.I knew she would love it. “Like it?” I couldn't stop myself from asking.She turned to look at me and her gaze softened before she leaned as far as the seatbelt would allow to press a soft lingering kiss to my lips.Instinctively, I froze for a brief second before I melted into the kiss and just as I was reaching a hand to pull her closer to me, she pulled away with a small smile. “What was that for?” I asked breathlessly.She shrugged. “Just to show you how much I love it” She chuckled seeing the dumbfounded look on my face.“I should really surprise you more” I muttered under my breath as I tried to unbuckle my belt.“Why? So that I can kiss you?” I heard her ask and I turned to look at her, my brow raised.“That and to see that priceless look of happiness on your face. I want to see it more often” I

    Chapter 1Onika’s POV I stared out of the window of the taxi excitedly as I approached Nathan’s house. I didn’t notify him that I would be coming because I wanted to surprise him. Today was his birthday and I did a lot out of my confidence zone to be able to afford his gifts, it was all going to be worth it as I pictured the smile on his face.Soon I arrived at his mansion and I paid the taxi man and I got down carrying all the gifts to my chest. I was utterly excited and I doubted when last I was that happy that the thought of putting a smile on his face was enough to keep me going.I turned the door knob and I walked in, there was no sign of him in the kitchen so I inquired about his whereabouts from the maid. “He is still in bed.” She muttered but I could notice a foul countenance on her face, it seemed like fear but I didn’t bother paying that much attention to it. I thanked her and dropped all the gifts in the living room as I proceeded upstairs to Nathan’s living room. I c

    Chapter 2 Onika’s POV Two years later,Today was going to be a lot, a great day or a disaster, I didn’t know which and I certainly couldn’t tell. My heart groaned as I tried to get a hold of myself by taking a glass of water and taking it all in a single gulp.A lot of thoughts crowded my mind as I pondered on what I was supposed to center my thoughts on. Frustration was starting to slip in, mixing in with anxiousness.I was feeling very hot even though the room was well-ventilated. A lot of people were going to be present today and not just people, but Socialites of a very high social cadre. I could tell I was going to be intimidated by their presence because they were just… rich. I suddenly had mixed feelings about my paintings and presenting them.What if they didn’t like it? What if I was ridiculed? What if no one even bothers paying attention to it? I knew anxiousness was beginning to slip in and there was nothing I could do to calm myself.At that moment, the door to the r

    Chapter 3Onikas POV I could feel the anger as it built up inside of me as I stared at him and the priceless look on his face was definitely to my delight. I reached for Kent’s hands and held mine immediately as I saw his gaze narrow to our hands, I smiled.“Onika…You’re here.” He stammered and I could see the shock and disappointment evident in his face which was to my delight. “Yes, I am, it's my party,” I said confidently. Kent looked at the both of us alongside the other one and everyone was wondering what was going on.“Do you both know yourselves from somewhere ?” Kent finally asked, breaking the awkward silence.“Oh yes, we do,” I replied almost immediately, staring weirdly at me. I could tell he was uncomfortable and something about that just made me happy.Kent stared at me for some further explanation but I didn’t respond, I remained quiet and kept on staring at Nathan who looked like he wanted to be swallowed.After some minutes of awkward silence, Kent finally spoke.“

Can’t you try talking to those you’re closer to? they shouldn’t be paying attention to a meaningless message.” Dion asked.I was on a distress call with Dion, my very good friend and business partner because right now I was about to lose everything I had worked for. My partners were threatening to disassociate because they got a message saying I wasn’t all stable because I wasn't married yet and although it seemed like a very stupid reason, they didn’t let me have a break about it leading to this call with Dion.“Tell me about it, and when I find whosoever was behind these shenanigans, I’m not letting him off the hook for any reason, this is costing me a lot,” I said, burying my face into my hands. “We are going to have to find a way around it or else we just go ahead with what they want. Getting married shouldn’t be a problem for someone like you. You have Regina, remember?”“Yes, I d…” my voice trailed when the rea

    Chapter 5Onika's POVI woke up due to the constant knocks on my door. I wanted to ignore it but I had a thought that it might be Kent.I tiredly stood up from my bed and picked up my phone to see a message from Kent saying he had to attend to something and he'd come afterward.If it wasn't Kent at the door then who was it?Curiously I walked to the door and I paused on the door knob. After some pondering and hesitation, I opened the door and I was shocked to the core to see Nathan, at my house.What the hell was he doing here? Who told him he could be coming around my house or something?“What do you want here?" I snapped coldly.“Geez, you don't have to be so cold, won't you at least let me come in?” He teased resting on the wall but I wasn't having any of it.I blocked the door ready to shut it in his face.“What do you want here? I won't ask again. You're not welcome on my property.” I snapped.He smiled and moved closer to me but I stepped back immediately.“What do you think you

    Onika’s POV As I stood before the full-length mirror, checking myself out, my mind went back to my last discussion with Nathan yesterday. “So, where should we meet so we could talk more about this proposal of yours?” I asked.“I’ll think about a nice location and I'll text you the address tomorrow,” He replied.“Okay,” I answered.Just when he was about to say something, I ended the call abruptly. I didn't want to hear anything else he had to say.Fast forward to today, I was putting on a red dress and was looking really good. I couldn't help but admire myself.The way I was dressed, one would think that I was going out on a real date. But I mentally reminded myself that I was only going out with Nathan as a part of my revenge plan.“You're doing this for one reason, Onika - revenge. Don't get carried away. This is all just a contract,” I said to myself.Staring deeper into the mirror, I said out loud,“Nathan, I'm going to make you pay for everything you've done to me. I'll make su

I was left all alone and my thoughts began to build up rapidly. What was his true intentions? Did he realize that he made a mistake but choosing Regina over me? He had the guts to even think I would ever take him back.

What was that call all about?Not as if I cared about him but I just wanted to know. “What happened?” I inquired from him.He remained silent but I was sure he heard me.“Nathan,” I called out this time I sounded more stern.“It was Dion.” He paused.Who the hell is Dion?“Dion, who is that?” “A good friend and a business

    ONIKA'S POVI was silent for what felt like a whole minute, unable to bring forth any words.He looked embarrassed, his foot lightly tapping on the floor. “Should I leave?” He scratched the back of his neck sheepishly.I needed to get my shit together. “Okay… I mean no, don't leave. Sit with us”Laura glared at me as I said that and she stood up, carrying her bag. “I think I should give you two some privacy. Onika, I'll be at the counter, inform me when you're done” That was all she said to me before she walked off the counter, setting herself on the low stool.I looked back at Kent, forcing a smile. “So you're here. I wasn't expecting you to be here”He glanced down and back up at me again. “Iㅡuhㅡ I just wanted to see you and your employees said you weren't at the office again so I decided to try here and if you weren't here, I'd come over” He explained.“Yeah sure.

    ONIKA'S POVDamien held the door open for me and I got in, dropping my purse at the back seat before I gripped the steering.“Okay, right behind you” Damien muttered, getting on his bike, reaching out to grab his helmet before he put it on, making sure the straps were okay before he gave me a thumbs up.I nodded at him and pulled out of the parking lot, my focus on the road as I started driving out of the company.First day at work after what felt like ages and thankfully I didn't feel more shitty than I already did before coming to work.My thoughts were spiralling even as I neared the cafe, my fingers lightly tapping on the steering wheel as I took a sharp swerve.Damien was right behind me as I pulled the car to a stop at the cafe, unbuckling my seat belt as I switched on the ignition.With that, I got out of the car, locking the door behind me. “Are you going to wait outside or are you coming in?” I asked Damien whose hands were tucked in his pockets.A conflicted look crossed his

    ONIKA'S POVAs soon as I stepped into the meeting room, all eyes turned to me. The long table was filled with shareholders, executives, and key members of the project team. At the head of the table sat Mr Sam Damon, his hand resting on the table. As soon as he saw me, he sighed almost visibly, clearly relieved to see me.He stood as I entered, offering a small smile. “Onika.”I nodded in acknowledgment and took my seat. “Mr. Damon.”His sharp gaze studied me. “I would have called you in sooner, but I wanted to make sure you had time to recover from… everything.”His tone was polite, but the intentions behind his words were clear. Everyone in the room knew about the scandal, the drama, and the mess Regina had caused. Even if they pretended otherwise.“I appreciate that,” I said evenly. “But I’m fine. Business doesn’t wait.”A few murmurs of approval circled the table, but one of the shareholders, a middle-aged man named Greg, cleared his throat. “Actually, since we’re on the subject of

    ONIKA'S POVConfusion warred with anger and disgust in me. Was she really going to come talk to me now?I folded my arms, tilting my head at Damien. “And what exactly does she want?”He shrugged. “Didn’t say. Just that she needed to speak to you urgently.”I scoffed. “Oh, I bet she does.”There was no doubt in my mind that this was about Regina. That viper had finally met her downfall, and now Nathan's mother was here, hoping to what? Plead her case? She couldn't talk to her son again? Pathetic.I moved back to my chair, dropping into it and rubbing my temples. “Tell her to leave. I have nothing to say to her.”Damien hesitated for a second, as if considering arguing, but then he nodded. “Alright.”He turned to leave, but just before he could step out, I heard her voice.“Damien, please… just give me a moment with her.”Was she seriously begging him? Oh how the mighty have fallen.I clenched my jaw, already irritated. Damien glanced back at me, clearly waiting for a final word.“She s

    ONIKA'S POV “Welcome back, ma'am” Amara said, following after me the next morning, her gaze burning into my back as I walked into my office, my heels clacking against the tiled floor.“Thank you. Is everything that I emailed you about in place yet?” I asked, slumping down on the swivel chair. Who knew that I would miss this piece of shit eventually? It felt so comfortable under my touch now and I leaned my head back against the headrest.She looked through the stack of papers in her arms, pulling out a binded stack of documents which she dropped unto the table, pushing them towards me. “Yes, I tried my best to get everything ready and I just need your signature on that one” She nodded to the document she has kept on my table.I looked at it with an arched brow before I grabbed it, flipping through it, unsure where this had come from. “What is this?” I had to ask.I don't remember this. This was for contracting a new construction company, why would we need this?“We need the company t

    ONIKA'S POVIt had been several hours on the flight and now we were on our way back to the mansion but surprisingly, it hadn't felt that way. Maybe it was the way Nathan kept throwing subtle glances at me when he thought I wasn't looking. Or the way he kept shifting in his seat, trying to get comfortable but failing miserably.Or maybe it was just the fact that I couldn't stop thinking about everything that had happened over the past few days.I looked out of the window. We were back in town meaning back with work and every bad thing that came with being in the country. Not like I could escape it anyways.Nathan was on a call, his voice low but firm as he spoke in hushed whispers. His fingers tapped against his knee, a telltale sign that something was bothering him.After what felt like a whole hour, he finally hung up and sighed, leaning his head back against the seat.I stretched my arms above my head and leaned back into the seat. "Is that work?"Nathan hummed in response, his gaze

    ONIKA'S POVThe next morning, I woke up to the feeling of warm lips pressed to my forehead and my eyes fluttered open to see Nathan staring down at me with a smile on his face."Good morning, sleeping beauty" He grinned, sitting up and stretching his arms above his head.It was morning already?I groaned, sitting up also, a yawn escaping me as I tried to get myself oriented with my surroundings again then I looked at him. "What are you doing so early?" I asked, my voice still groggy and full of sleep.He stood up and looked over his shoulder at me. "We're leaving today, you remember that, yeah?" He asked, his brows pinched together.Oh right... We were supposed to leave today. "Right, sorry I'm not myself right now yet" I apologized, throwing my legs off the bed, my limbs aching as soon as I stood up.He nodded, understanding what I was trying to say but there was no judgement on his face, just sheer amusement. "Get ready, breakfast is already done. Also your phone was ringing and I f
