“It was urgent mama, I am sorry" I kissed her hair. Irene raised her head and kissed me lips. “oops" she said wipping off her lipstick from my lips with her hand. I held her waist, guilding my lips to meet hers. She tried to object but I didn't mind. I kissed Irene like it was the last time I was ever going to see her. I slowly broke the kiss and asked her “lunch?" . Irene nodded and subconsciously yawned. “Sir" I ordered. I left the room and got back with our lunch boxes. I handed one to Irene and we got eating. Irene chewed the pasta with little moan sounds, I felt like I was being tortured by her. “Irene, can you please stop? You are moaning!" I sighed. Irene closed her mouth in reflex and whispered “I am sorry". After we finished lunch, I leaned my head her thighs and she leaned on the bed frame. Irene massaged my hair and played with my brows. I smiled sweetly at Irene and she leaned over to kiss my forehead. “Thank you Damien" she said, smiling. I turned my body to
Madison walked up to me and interrupted what I was saying, saying. "It's a call from the hospital. Dad was rushed there by the butler this morning" Madison informed me.. immediately,my face changed in seconds. My dad had just been discharged from the hospital last month and was placed on bedrest. Now, he has been rushed back in an emergency. The board members looked at each other surprised with Madison's action. "We have come to the end of this meeting. Thank you all for your audience and participation" I announced, faking a smile. I hurriedly exchanged pleasantries with some of the board members, faking a smile every time they approached me. Madison cleared my schedule for the day and helped me move her documents to the office before heading to the last floor. I collected the car key from Tony and got into the driver's seat. Madison rushed after me and sat beside her in the front seat. "You need to calm down Irene. You are going to get us killed if you keep speed
At 2:30pm, I changed into a more corporate outfit and left Madison with Dad. I had fixed a meeting with Dubai clients for 3pm and didn't want to keep them waiting. I kissed dad's cheeks before heading out. This time, I allowed Tony to drive me. 3:02pm, I arrived at Palm Bay hotel in the heart of Cabin city. Tony assisted me with my bag and I walked head high behind him till we got to the lounge area for the meeting. I met a young man in his 30s sitted dressed in an Arabian outfit working on his laptop. "You must be miss Swift," he said in an Arabian accent without lifting his head. I smiled and extended my hand for a handshake. The young man raised his head and looked at me before accepting my hands. "You are three minutes late," he said with a weak smile. I chuckled and apologized. I looked at the young man for the first time and I could admit he was handsome. He was one of the most handsome men I had met. His perfect eyebrows, jawline and his head wrap complimented
Tony packed up at the hospital's garage and I rushed out of the car hurriedly. Madison tried to keep up with me, but I was faster than she expected. I pumped on a nurse on the wall way and realized it was nurse Betty. "Excuse me nurse, how is my father? What is wrong with him?" I panted heavily .Nurse Betty helped me relax and informed me, My Dad was doing great. He only had two guests, she informed me. I nodded and reduced my pace. I stood in front of the room and noticed two strange figures sitting with dad. I pushed the door open and went to my father immediately ignoring the glances of the two people in the room. "Are you alright dad? You got me so worried" I sighed in relief hugging my dad. My Dad sat still and breathed heavily. He patted me in his arms and kissed my hair. I arranged her hair and noticed the guests in the room. A middle aged woman with heavy makeup and a young man who shares a resemblance with my father. I turned to my dad and he quickly turned away. Th
Damien hugged me and kissed my lips. He allowed me sob softly in his arms for the first time in weeks without scolding me. I allowed my emotions to purge itself as memories of months ago flashed through my mind. “I am sorry Damien” I apologized, after realizing I was sniffing my nose in his suit. Damien chuckled and handed me his handkerchief. " It is ok Mama. Let it out” . I held his shoulder as I laid on his chest and slowly my sobbing stopped. " Did your Dad give any reason for his actions? Did he in any way explain why he handed his company to Cole, your step brother who you just met for the first time? “ Damien asked, coldly. I inhaled and leaned out of his arms. “He didn't till after the company hit bankruptcy after a few weeks. He invited me over several times but I didn't show up, till the day I eventually did. My Dad's appearance broke my heart. We sat at the Garden and he explained everything to me.Mr Dave's POV. “ I have always been proud of you Irene”, I sa
Irene hugged me and cried in my arms. I held her and inhaled her sweet scent. I missed her. “I am sorry about your mom's death, it wasn't my intention to steal her away from you" I apologized, sobbing. Irene raised her head and wiped my tears “it is ok Dad, let's not talk about it anymore" she said, sitting up. I bowed my head in shame as pictures of my mistakes flashed through my mind. I made the wrong decision by entrusting my years of labor to Cole and his greedy mother Anabel. I looked at Irene and gently wiped my face with a small towel. “It is no longer news that my business has faced bankruptcy. Irene, Cole and his mother walked into my life and ruined it within twenty one days. Irene, I can barely do anything right now. You are all I have now. Please help me, help the company” I pleaded with all of my heart. Irene held my hands and they didn't keep still, they kept shaking for almost three minutes. Irene raised her head and nodded with a weak smile. "I promise to
Irene hugged me tightly and made soft baby sounds. “I will miss you," she said softly, leaning on my chest. I cleared my throat and hugged her softly, I was already missing her even before she spoke the word. I woke up the next day and I packed my bags and freshened up quietly trying not to wake Irene. I dressed up casually and sat next to Irene on bed. She was a beauty and I wished we were traveling together. I touched her hair gently and she subconsciously yawned and held my fingers on the bed. I tried to free them from her grip but it was much more difficult. Irene opened her eyes and whispered my name. She got up and scanned me from head to toe before rubbing her eyes. “Where are you going?" She said sleepy. I smiled softly at her and took her hand. I wore her one of my favorite bracelets I got two years ago and kissed her hand. “I told you about my trip last night mama. I will be gone for four days and I want you to be the good girl you have been,ok?" . Just lik
Collin ignored and paid less attention to all I had to say. I tried to touch him and I saw the beast in him. “Don't! Don't ! If you still love those fingers, don't touch me with them" he said coldly, but with so much intention in them. I stood there like a paused AI. “I lost two men and my niece" he announced with pain in his voice. At his words, I looked around and counted the men silently, like lightning, I realized that the Russian guy was not among the men standing. Walked slowly to the dead bodies and gently took away the covers on their faces. To my greatest shock, he was among the dead bodies. My knees went numb, it was the first time I had felt cold on a sunny day. I screamed in pain, holding my mouth from screaming more. I sobbed like a child till Collin walked to the car and opened the door. He carried sleeping Irene on his shoulder and walked past me. Just like a controlled robot, I stopped crying as soon as I saw her. I walked behind Collin till he tied her up
Two years later: Two years later and I still couldn’t stop gushing over my woman. Irene was perfect in her wedding dress. I stood at the altar with Raymond behind me and watched her walk down the aisle with her dad. Her wedding dress enhanced all her curves and complimented her beauty. She was my own monalisa. The music stopped as soon as she got to the altar. She stood in front of me and I could tell that she was blushing. I took her hands as directed by the officiating priest and it was time to exchange our wedding vows. I took a deep breath and looked at all the guests present. I looked at Madison who held her baby, Cole who was wearing the brightest smile in the room, her dad who was really emotional and my daughter amongst other guests. Chole sat down in the first roll with her phone, ready to capture as many moments as possible. She gave me a thumbs up and a smile. Chole was extremely gorgeous in her pink lace dress. I turned my attention to the epitome of beau
It has been five days and a case has already been filed. Cole had given his testimony and Raymond had submitted the cctv footage to my lawyer as evidence. Chole had been discharged and she was staying at Irene's father's house with Cole and Madison. I was still at the hospital with my wife, watching up every morning expecting her to breathe and call my name. I looked outside the window and sighed heavily. My life was going through circles. I feared Irene would leave me the same way Sylvia did. I was confused and scared. The doctor has been assuring me since day one that she would be fine. It was almost a week, five working days and she has been the same. “Good morning Mr Damien '' , I heard Cole’s voice. He walked in with a simple smile and a food flask. “You didn’t have to bro” I responded weakly. He dropped the flask by the drawer and sat next to Irene. “You didn’t eat last night. You need strength to take care of Irene, Chole and me” he smiled. My stomach grumbled
Damien went berserk when the police informed him about the accident. He yelled “my wife and my baby!”. Damien moved past the police and I followed him. We got to the scene and it was Irene’s car. My hands were shaking, my whole body was covered with goosebumps. Damien rushed through the police and got to the car. He banged the car and cried in frustration. I walked to him and held his hand. The paramedics helped in bringing out chole. She had a few cuts from the glass but she passed out. They carried her to the other ambulance. The other team brought out my sister and it was bad. Very bad. She was bleeding everywhere and it was very obvious that she had broken bones. Damien squeezed my hand as he saw his wife. We were restricted by the police from coming closer to her. Damien got back to the car and drove in a rush to the hospital. As we waited in the waiting room, Madison and Dad rushed in. they were more panicked than we were. I hugged Madison and assured her all was going
ANNABEL’S POV. “Good morning baby”, Joses kissed my cheeks with a warm smile on his face. I stretched my hands and yawned tiredly. “Good morning “ I responded. I was living my best three days after Damien almost ruined my life. I noticed he had brought me breakfast and I smiled warmly as I took it from him. Joses left to get my vitamins. After trying all I could to get Jose back, I finally got the idea. All he wanted was money to get a yacht. I called in my lawyer and made a few of my properties up for sale. In two days, I got a buyer and signed the necessary documents. I called Joses. He eventually agreed to meet me. As soon as he walked in, I handed him the check he needed for his yacht. He hugged me spinned me around and kissed me. Since that day,he has worshiped me. I started getting back my life together. I had all the pleasure I needed, money and beauty. He got back with the vitamins and handed them to me. “How did it go last night?” he asked curiously. I
Tears ran down my face as I watched the final session of the interview. I couldn’t understand how the universe found me fortunate enough to have a god for a husband. Damien is a dream come through for me. “Mommy, I am done” Chole’s voice was a prompt for me to wipe my face. I cleaned my face and went through what she had written. “Good girl” I applauded. That evening, we ate dinner alone without Damien. At 10pm, Damien got back stressed and tired. He skipped dinner and went straight to bed. The next morning, I was up and popping. I was getting back to work after a long time and I had planned to make my husband breakfast. I got to the kitchen and started cooking. In no time, I was done. I served it on the best tray in the mansion and carried it upstairs myself. I gently pushed the door and placed the tray on the bed. I hung the curtains and leaned over to kiss him. I gave him a warm passionate french kiss. Damien moaned softly from his sleep as he woke up. “Good mor
“Hey!! Why are you two fighting over my best friend’s baby?” I joined their argument. “You should give a grand kid too” my dad fired back. With just one statement, I was off track. I laughed and listened to them argue over and over. After a while, my dad turned his attention to me. “ Irene, how is your husband? I still remembered how I fought tirelessly with him when I learnt about your marriage to him” he laughed. “Cole, i almost shot Damien on the head” he laughed harder. “I am glad Madison was able to make me see reasons. He takes care of you and the company too. I couldn’t have wished for a more competent inlaw” he bragged. Cole nodded and agreed immediately. “Dad, he is a great husband to my sister, '' Cole added and said many things that I couldn't pay much attention to. As soon as the word ‘sister’ left his mouth, I felt goosebumps. I felt emotional immediately and felt like hugging him. I didn’t know what was coming over me, so I got up from my seat and h
Damien laughed and cuddled me tightly. He held me close to himself like I was going to sneak off as soon as he left me. “You didn’t answer me baby” he whispered to my ears. “How are you feeling? Are you cramping?” He asked with all concern in his voice. I adjusted myself in his arms till I felt comfortable. “No daddy! I barely feel anything “. Damien gently touched my abdomen and caressed as his hands were in direct contact with my skin. I slept off earlier than our bed time and it made waking up early easier. At 3:49 am the next day, I woke up. I gently took my husband’s hand off my breast and walked to the bathroom. I got back from the bathroom and stared at how peaceful my husband was sleeping. He looked totally harmless and cute. I turned on the lights and tried to click a picture when he moved his eyelids. Damien smiled from his sleep without opening his eyes. I took a picture regardless but as I was about to click the next picture, he made a pose with his fingers.
Irene’s POV. I woke up to the warm kisses of my darling husband. As I opened my eyes, he kissed my lips again with a sweet smile on his face. “Hey mama”, he leaned away and took off his cufflinks. “You went out? Why all dressed?” I yawned lazily as I sat up. Damien smiled without words and walked into the closet to get changed. I got out of bed and noticed I had messed up the sheets. My period had been delayed for almost a week and the situations around the company and my family totally took my mind off it. As I tried changing the sheets, Damien’s voice startled me. “What’s that?” He asked with his hands folded behind his back. He looked like a mean grandpa with his golf outfit. I stuttered in speech before I finally found the right words. “Nothing, I am changing the sheets' ' I responded. Damien smirked and walked to me and held my waist. “Not that, The stain on your outfit. I know what it is now” he leaned and whispered to my ears. I was embarrassed but it didn’t s
As soon as she hung up my phone fell from my hand. What did she mean by I am being sued by Damien?. I was still in confusion when Joses barged in with so much anger in his eyes. “What is going on? Why is everything turning off? What the hell!! You promised me this was going to work!” He yelled. I was too shocked and confused to understand all that was happening. “Baby boy, you need to calm down and explain it slowly. What are you talking about? Why are the legal team withdrawing?” I asked, trying to touch him. He pulled himself away gently and paced around the room. The tension in the room was so high that I started feeling my stomach rumbling. “Haven’t you seen the news?” He blasted out of nowhere. I nodded my head as his question sounded familiar with what Barr. Glow asked over the phone. “What the hell!! “ he hissed. “Calm down Baby J, I just woke up” I whined. He stared at me with disgust and it offended me. I didn’t know how and what I was supposed to do. “ It's
