"Hello..Mr Anderson..yes Sir….your dad asked me to book you the next available flight back to Cali"Max leaned back in his chair as his jaw tightened. "He did, huh?" he muttered and tapped his fingers on the table."Yes, sir," Mr. Green confirmed. "Your father said there's no need to attend tomorrow's meeting. He believes the deal is already lost."Max let out a slow breath as his gaze darkened. "Tell him I’m not leaving. I’ll handle this my way.""But sir""That’s final," Max cut in firmly and ended the call. His eyes flickered toward the window……...UAEAre you sure about this, ma’am?” a gentleman in a black suit asked as he stared at the woman before him.She wore a striking red dress, her bobbed hair framing her face perfectly. Her red lipstick added to her allure which made her look almost like a goddess. A white pearl chain rested elegantly around her neck.“I flew all the way here not to be sure about it,” she said, leaning back in her chair.“Tomorrow, I get to show what my po
The meeting room buzzed with conversation as the board members settled in.Mr. Creed sat at the table with a smirk playing on his lips.“Do we even need to hear anyone else’s deal now?” Mr Ahmed said from the head of the table and shuffled slightly in his seat. He gave Mr. Creed a knowing look.Mr. Charles, one of the board members, laughed at the joke. “Hahaha… Well, it’s only fair that our investors make their final decision based on today’s presentations,” he added with a smirk.Creed leaned back in his chair, still confident he was taking it home. “Of course,” he said smoothly.As the discussion continued, the doors swung open, and the investors began entering the room one by one.The atmosphere shifted as each of them took their seats. Creed sat back confidently, exchanging a subtle glance with Ahmed, who gave him a reassuring nod. Everything was going according to plan.With everyone settled, the presentations began.One by one, each investor took turns discussing their final sta
Max barely had time to think when the hotel door opened. The moment he saw Kristen, he rushed in and pulled her into a tight hug."Thank you... Thank you," he murmured, his voice full of emotion before finally pulling away.He reached out into his pocket and brought out a single flower. "A flower for the most special person," he said with a small smile.Kristen took it slowly, excitement flickering in her eyes, though she felt a little awkward. "I... I made something for you," she said and stepped aside to reveal a small table set with food.Max walked over, his gaze falling on two cakes. One read, Congrats on your new deal! The other, in bold letters, read, Who gives a f** about that deal anyway?*Kristen's eyes widened as she quickly tried to hide the second cake, but Max burst into laughter."I love this," he said and took a seat."Where should we dig in first?" he asked, picking up a fork. Then, with a mischievous grin, he added, "Super hungry here!" before laughing again.….…….Mr
“Yes,” she whispered. Max blinked, stunned. “Wait… really?” He let out a short, breathless laugh. “I thought you were going to say no after everything I put you through.” He said stood up and wrapped around her, pulled her close. Kristen shook her head. “I would have… if you’d asked me a week ago.” She searched his face. “I’m the luckiest man on earth today.” Max said..“Thank you… Thank you.” He gazed at her, memorising every detail before slowly leaning in. Their lips met, soft at first, then it deepened as the world around them faded away. The waves crashed gently in the background, the cool ocean breeze mixed with the warmth of their bodies. Max’s hands traced the curve of her back and pulled her closer, as if afraid to ever let go. “Kristen…” he murmured, pressing kisses along her jaw. She shivered as her fingers threaded through his hair. Every touch, every breath was electric. Without a word, Max scooped her up effortlessly and carried her toward a hidden spot on the bea
The morning felt like a dream, as if the warmth of the sun and the gentle rustle of the leaves were all just a delicate illusion. The world outside seemed to be holding its breath, waiting to see if the magic of the night before would spill over into the day.Kristen stirred, a small smile curling on her lips as she nuzzled against what she thought was Max’s chest. But as her eyes slowly fluttered open, the warmth she expected wasn’t there.Her smile faltered. The space beside her was empty.She carefully sat upright, her gaze sweeping the room.....until it landed on a bouquet of red roses resting on the small table by Max’s side of the bed.She reached for them and inhaled their delicate scent, her heart swelling with warmth.As she cuddled the flowers and smelled them, a sharp knock on the door made her head immediately snap up.The knock came again, pulling her fully into realization that someone was at the door."Coming," she said, slowly placing the flowers down. She straightened
Mr. Creed stood in front of the screen, watching the headlines flash across it...all covering the same scandal. A satisfied smirk played on his lips as he took in the chaos unfolding.Behind him, Tyrese watched in silence as Creed rejoiced."Let’s see how you get out of this, Anderson, Nobody will even talk about your victory", Creed murmured, his eyes gleaming with victory.….……A few hours ago after Max had landed before Mr Green even went for Kristen.The moment the car pulled up to Max’s estate, Mr. Valtor swung the door open and stormed out... his steps heavy with fury. His wife, Julia, rushed after him, calling his name, but he didn’t stop. He was a man on a mission and that mission was to tear into his son for the disgrace he had just witnessed.The grand doors of the mansion opened and there stood Max.But before he could utter a wordBam!A sharp blow landed across his jaw.Max’s head jerked to the side but he didn’t retaliate. He didn’t even flinch as his father grabbed him
The studio lights blazed which casting a crisp glow against the pristine white backdrop. Photographers and assistants moved swiftly, adjusting cameras and perfecting the lighting.Lena was in her element. She posed effortlessly, her radiant smile never faltering. She twirled, laughed and reached for Max’s hand at every opportunity, ensuring the cameras captured them as the picture perfect couple.Max, on the other hand, stood stiffly beside her. His jaw was tight, his hands in his pockets between shots. When the photographer told them to get closer, Lena eagerly wrapped her arms around his waist, resting her head on his shoulder."Smile, Max," she whispered sweetly, tilting her head up at him.He forced a small smirk, but his eyes were cold and empty.The cameras clicked."Perfect!" the photographer called out. "You two look amazing together!"Lena giggled and adjusted her dress before leaning into Max again. "I told you this would be fun!" she said, running a hand down his chest.Max
Lena stepped into her room, closing the door behind her with a satisfied smile. She tossed her bag onto the bed and let out a small laugh as she felt victorious.“Finally,” she whispered to herself. Everything was going exactly how she wanted.She glanced outside...'' Let's see how you get out of there, no one is coming to save you this time''….…….“Do you know what you’re asking for, Ma’am? Your friend should be in jail by now.”The police officer leaned over the counter with a stern expression as he said...Noami clenched her fists, frustration bubbling inside her. “She did nothing wrong! She’s innocent, please trust me!”The officer scoffed. “Do you think this is how it works? If everyone came here crying, should we let all the criminals go?”Noami’s eyes filled with tears as she begged. “Please, just let me see her for a few minutes.”The officer narrowed his eyes. “If you’re not careful, you’ll end up in a cell next to her. Now leave before I close my eyes and open them again.”No
"Let's see how you free yourself from this one," Lena muttered to herself as she slowly walked to a seat, her gaze still fixed on the man."Can't say no to the finest wine," the sugar baby man said, taking a glass from the waitress' tray. He sipped it and swaggered forward.….."Ah, I thought you weren't going to come," a man called out as he stopped in front of him."Haha, you know I never miss any party, Mark... late but never miss," Sugar Baby responded with a chuckle.The man laughed in response and gave him a friendly pat on the shoulder before turning to exchange a few words with a nearby guest.....Kristen nodded her head as she took a step forward after speaking with one of the men.Without knowing, Sugar Baby and her bumped into each other."So sorry, Sir," Kristen said, turning to face him."No problem," Sugar Baby said, turning equally.Kristen stared at him for a brief second, her eyes slightly blinking."My sweet Sugar baby," the man muttered with surprise as he looked a
"Hahaha, come in," Mr. Morgan said, laughing warmly as he led a group of men inside.....all dressed sharply, clearly important like himself.As they walked in, two security personnel stood at the entrance, checking every guest.“Good evening, ma'am. May I have your name and invitation card?” one of them asked politely.“Kristen Roses,” she replied softly, handing over her card.The guard looked at it, nodded, and handed it back.“Welcome to Mr. Morgan’s 67th birthday celebration, ma'am.”Kristen nodded with a small smile, hiding the nervous flutter in her chest.“Shall we?” another guard said, stepping aside to let her through.Taking a deep breath, Kristen stepped inside the venue.She tried not to stare too much, keeping her head low as she made her way through the crowd.Inside, the ballroom is filled with elegantly dressed guests, all chatting and laughing as soft music plays in the background. Crystal lights sparkle from the ceiling.Kristen walks in, forcing polite smiles and nod
"Welcome. This is going to be your new office. I hope it works well for you," Mr. Creed said as he stepped in with Kristen by his side."Thank you, sir. This is more than I expected," Kristen replied with appreciation."No need to thank me," Mr. Creed said with a faint smile. "I'll leave you to settle in while I take care of a few things."Without waiting for a response, he turned and walked away, a smile lingering on his face as he disappeared down the hallway.................Mr. Creed met Tyrese just outside the hallway, pausing briefly before both men stood in front of his office. Without a word, he opened the door and gestured for Tyrese to enter first.Inside, Mr. Creed moved with an air of authority, crossing the room and settling into his chair. As he arranged a few documents on his desk, taking his time, the finally looked up at Tyrese, who stood tall and silent waiting to hear a word from him."Hmmm, he cleared his throat as he began…I want you to begin a full search into he
Kristen’s hands shook as she tore off the wires attached to her arms. The monitor beside her beeped wildly, then went flat.“Miss, please....you need to rest!” the nurse rushed over as she tried to hold her gently. The doctor stepped forward. “Hey, listen. You just woke up. Your body is still recovering, and you’re....”“I said I can’t stay here!” Kristen exclaimed, her voice trembling and breaking. Her eyes darted around the room, wide with fear. “I don’t even know what happened to me…”She shoved the blanket away and swung her legs off the bed. The cold floor felt like ice against her bare feet, but she didn’t stop. Her head spun, and her knees almost gave way.The nurse caught her just in time. “Please, you’re not strong enough to walk. Just lie down”Kristen clutched the nurse’s arm, her low and broken voice she said. “I need to get out of here. Please… I can’t breathe.”The doctor shared a concerned glance with the nurse, then nodded slowly. “Alright,” he said softly. “We won’t s
"We have about 6 hours until everything clears from her eyes," Charles said, his grip on the phone tighter as he made a step into the room. Kristen laid there motionless, still fully unconscious."Do whatever you want with her... dump her somewhere," the person on the other end said."Sure," Charles said as he ended the call.Charles slipped his phone into his pocket, just as the door creaked open. The lingerie lady stepped in, crossing her arms behind her as she surveyed the room. Her eyes briefly flickered over Kristen’s motionless form before shifting to Charles."You want us to keep her here?" she asked, her tone casual, but with an edge.Charles didn’t look at her as he answered. “No. They’ll come for her back.” He turned to her sharply. “Thank you. I’ll have the rest sent to your account.”The lady simply nodded her head, chewing her gum with a lazy smile. “Sure thing,” she replied, unbothered, as if this was all just another day’s work.Without another word, Charles turned and w
“Hey, sugar baby,” a man in black socks muttered as he stepped inside, a grin tugging at the corner of his lips.Slowly, his pants slid down while his gaze remained fixed on the bed where Kristen lay unaware of his presence. He pulled off his white tee and tossed it to the floor, revealing a large belly that jiggled with every movement.“Sugar baby…” he said again, his voice low and thick as he climbed onto the bed, settling himself above her motionless body. He muttered "sugar baby" once more as he climbed onto the bed, letting out a soft moan while leaning over Kristen's body.“Are you ready to have some fun?” he muttered, a crooked grin spread across his face.He gently took Kristen's hand, raising it gradually toward his face. With a disturbing calm, he began sniffing along her skin, trailing from her wrist down toward her elbow. His eyes fluttered briefly as he exhaled, completely lost in the moment.When his head lowered near her breast, a soft, unsettling moan slipped from his
A couple of days later…Lena spotted Max stepping out of the house. “Max,” she called sweetly as she rushed towards him.She reached up to adjust the collar of his shirt. “Where are you going?” she asked with a forced smile.Max gently removed her hands without saying a word. He turned and walked past her without even glancing back.Lena stood still, watching him go, but a small smile tugged at her lips. She pulled out her phone and quickly typed a message:You know what to do. Make sure everything goes as planned. Ruin everything and I’ll have your head.She pressed send and smirked. “What’s coming next…” she muttered under her breath, “he won’t recover from.”With that, she turned and walked away.Just as Max reached for his car door, his phone buzzed. A quick look at the caller ID told him everything he needed to know. He answered.Seconds later, his expression tightened.Without a moment's pause, he hung up the call, jumped into his car, and drove away quickly.….………………………..
Kristen walked into the building with a hopeful heart. It wasn’t a grand place.......nothing luxurious.....but it was hers. A fresh start. A chance to prove herself.She smiled politely at the front desk and introduced herself, holding her appointment letter carefully. “I’m Kristen Rose. I was told to report for my trial this morning.”The receptionist checked the list, paused… then looked up.“Wait here, please.”Kristen waited, watching people walk by with files in hand and purpose in their steps. She imagined herself being part of them.Minutes passed. Then the HR manager walked out.“Miss Rose, may I speak with you privately?”Kristen followed unsure of what she might say. The door shut behind them.“I’ll be direct with you,” the woman began. “We’ve received an urgent message from one of our board members. He’s advised that your appointment be withdrawn with immediate effect.”Kristen blinked. “What? Why?”“I wasn’t given details, only that your presence here could compromise cer
“Kristen!” Max called out as he leaned his head out the car window.He saw her walking away… slipping further into the crowd.“What are you doing?” Lena said quickly, grabbing his arm to stop him from leaning out too far.Just then, the traffic light turned green. Engines around them roared, ready to move.“Max, stop it!” Lena shouted, panic rising in her voice.“Kristennn!” Max called again. He pulled his head back in and reached for the car door, about to open it.The car jerked forward slightly with the movement of traffic, but he didn’t care.“What are you doing, Max?!” Lena cried, still clinging to his arm.Before anyone could stop him, Max was already out of the car, rushing to cross the road.He ran straight into moving traffic, weaving through cars. Horns blared, but he didn’t stop. He managed to make it across.Lena’s heart nearly jumped out of her chest. “Max!” she cried. Without thinking, she flung the door open and got down too.As she hurried across, the sudden roar of a m
