Thanksgiving Party

I stared at myself in the mirror and took in my appearance. I was wearing a beautiful one-shoulder red ball gown with an asymmetric neckline fitted from the neck to my waist and then poured all the way down to my knees. I paired the dress with red pumps that had golden heels and a pair of golden ear studs. My face had very minimal makeup that consisted of foundation, powder, brows that were carved to almost perfection, and blood-red lipstick to match the gown. I looked amazing.

I had failed to mention that this party was also my engagement party to Ethan. Despite our protests, our parents had called together all the people they knew, including the press, to announce our engagement. I didn’t think it was necessary but as I said, it was agreed upon despite our protests.

Ethan dropped me off after half a day of cake tasting and stuffing our faces with as much food as possible. He took me to different restaurants that served different cuisines of different countries, and I finally got to

  • Dealing With Love...    Bursting My Brain...

    Thanksgiving with my family and the Whites was a big experience that opened my eyes to the possibilities of who a billionaire’s wife should be. It was all things from nervous to scary to attention to the limelight and I didn’t even plan it, but what I was grateful for was the fact that Ethan was with me.However, I was in the process of bursting my brain because our parents had pushed the Christmas eve party on my shoulders. I was annoyed to be honest when I was told that I would be planning the party, especially since I had gotten the hang of the company’s management.This brings me to why I was seated in my office at 4:36 pm with the event planner, mine, and Ethan’s mum had introduced us. Thankfully, Funke was here with me along with Liya and my sister, Elizabeth, well, since Joel’s parents were also coming, Funke had to step it up as the billionaire’s girlfriend while Liya and my sister were a plus I didn’t take for granted. I laughed in her face when she was forced to plan this wi

    Jingle bells, jingle bells, The sound of Christmas arrives, Joy has come to the world, Along with the love of my life. ~Oluwatoyosi Ethan’s POV “I can’t believe your mum got us to work. I could be relaxing with my girlfriend right now, you know that? What exactly did you do to piss her off?” Joel’s words were playful but also a bit annoying, as was I. Here we are lifting sofas and setting up the groundwork for the Christmas eve party on Christmas eve. “Probably because I laughed in her face for being made to throw the party,” I replied as we placed the sofa by the very extravagant Christmas tree in my parent’s living room. Breathing in and out softly from all the lifting, I felt a small hand on my back and knew who it was. “Babe, all that remains now, is to get the crates from the downstairs cellar. Think you guys can manage it?” Precious’s voice was soft and sweet. Too sweet in fact to let me know that she was enjoying the work I was given. “Oh, there the guys are. You gu

    I always knew the world of a billionaire wasn’t a bed of roses, they also had thorns on their sticks but what I didn’t know was why I was always the target. Whoever sent that gift box meant for me to be scared and even though the bones were fake, it still did a number on me. Not the scared part, the angry part. I was furious that someone would go to such lengths to try and scare me after all the shit I had gone through.“Do you have any idea who might want to hurt you?” Detective Wallice, who had helped them find me when I was kidnapped, asked and I raised a brow in response.Ethan and I were sitting in my office, as the detectives wanted to see us both. Ethan and I sat on one of the couches while the detectives, Wallice and Carol sat opposite us. I had suggested we have the meeting in my office in case anyone tried to pull a second scare sham and they all willingly agreed.“Well, seeing as Shawn and David are still sitting in a jail cell, and Marley is God knows where, I really do no

    By Friday, I thought things had calmed down, and I could finally have some head space to think about anything except a pile of fake bones but we can’t always get what we wish for right?“So, you’re telling me that two people have visited Davis recently?” I asked, trying to understand the concept of what was happening and who could be trying to scare me. I kept pacing behind my office rotating chair as my free left hand massaged my temple.“Yes. A certain Miss Jordan Roberts and Mr. Roger Phillips, however, these two people do not have any record in the system and especially the Roberts woman. She has worked job to job as a different person each time until she finally disappeared,” Detective Wallice said and rested his back on the chair he sat on opposite the mahogany table.“Well, what does she look like?” I asked because I assumed they would have checked the security footage to get a good look at her.“Well, according to the security footage, she has icy blonde hair and bright blue e

    “When I started in the company, I worked my bones off to be the best and Mr. Davis recognized my skill and hard work and promoted me to Head of the research section. We became friends because we had a lot in common except, he wasn’t married and I was. He helped my wife get the medical bills privilege even though her bills were past the insurance policy,” Philips started and I leaned to sit on the desk as the detectives brought out their notepads and scribbled some things on it. “He was a good to us but he had his demons. He loved women and never wanted to settle for one. Whenever we’d go drinking, he’d brag about his latest catch which was why I wasn’t shocked when he got arrested for rape and embezzlement,” “Then why were you so against me taking over the company?” I asked, not giving in to his sad crap. I did pity his wife and I knew I would never carry out my threat because well, God won’t allow me. I would only fire him though. “I was scared you’d revoke the privileges when you

    I always thought I would be spending my new year fawning over the fact that I got engaged to a white man, and planning the wedding but instead here I was, seated on Ethan’s bed with hot coffee in my hand the day after I got scared out of my wits just waiting for either the boogeyman to strike or for the authorities to catch whoever was behind this. I had gone into shock when I saw the gift box containing a dead cat, so much so that I didn’t even know when Ethan came rushing into my office and carrying into his car before driving us home. I couldn’t speak but according to Ethan, I slept off as soon as he dropped off Funke over at Joel’s apartment. When I woke up this morning, which was around 12pm, I was disoriented and didn’t want to get up, which was why I was still seated on his bed, with a pillow headrest and a giant comforter snuggling my petite form. I sipped the hot coffee that Ethan had brewed and turned my gaze to the side to see Ethan staring at me with worry. I didn’t blam

    My jaw ticked as I stared at the two detectives who had gone rather silent or should I say, they were silently communicating. Ethan and I sat side by side in Detective Wallice’s office at the NYPD wondering in silence why the two detectives who had watched the security footage suddenly went silent. “Can someone please say something?” I finally snapped in frustration causing them to snap their gazes at me before Wallice sighed and sat down. “This isn’t enough incriminating evidence, she,” he started. “What do you mean there's not enough evidence? We can both clearly see that she’s blackmailing and threatening the only lead we had who ended up giving us wrong information,” I said or rather yelled until I felt a hand on my back making me turn my head to Ethan incredulously as I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. The footage clearly showed Mr. Philips talking to this woman, who I thought had finally been by my side and she was threatening him, to give us false information. What coul

  • Dealing With Love...    New Year

    Ethan was a man of little words when it came to romance, but that was because he always preferred taking action instead and I loved him for it and even though it may be expensive, it was free food for me and bills on him, so who was I to complain?He drove for thirty minutes or so, and parked at a particularly familiar diner. Wong’s diner has been our escape shack when we were both stressed from everything but we hadn’t been here in a while and so with a smile on my face, I stepped out.“Why Wong’s?” I asked curiously.“Well, to get on for the day, we need to fill you up first,” he said and winked before grabbing my hand and pulling me inside. We took our regular table and I smiled as I recalled our experiences in this place.“Remember how I got you roped into my life here?” he asked, flashing his pearly white teeth. A waiter came for our orders before I could reply. We ordered our usual and the waiter left.“Of-course, I remember, it wasn’t particularly convincing,” I said but he smi

    "To the mall!" I told the driver excitedly. He drove us there, and I quickly got out, rushing to the kids’ section while dragging Funke, who was laughing at my excited face.I bought a small onesie that said "I love Daddy," paid for it, and went to the grocery store. I bought all the ingredients needed to make our favorite food, paid, and left. I checked the time, and it was past 4 p.m., so I decided to go straight home so I could cook."Will you come with me?" I asked Funke, and she shook her head."No, I have something to do in the office; besides, this is something you need to do yourself. I'm happy for you, babe," she hugged me again, and we dropped her off at the office before I left for home.We pulled up at the house. Ethan had surprised me again with this house; he said he wanted us to have a huge family, so he built a mansion with 8 rooms, one for each of our six kids, even though I protested. The house was homely because his mother designed it with my mother. It had an enorm

It has been amazing waking up to my husband and going to bed with him."So, what are we going to do about the shipment?" Daphne, my assistant, snapped me out of my daydreaming about my husband."Send it to everyone that ordered," she nodded."You have a meeting by 4 p.m. with Candler Inc." I nodded, not being able to speak because I felt sick in my stomach. I rushed to the bathroom to throw up. I had been throwing up since morning, not to mention the way I've been feeling sick these past few weeks, when we came home. Daphne rushed to my side, holding up my hair and rubbing my back."You need to see the doctor, ma'am. You've been sick the whole week," she said sharply, since I've been denying going to the doctor."It's just the flu. Don't worry," I said, waving it off."It's not

    We were about to enter the cart when I saw the little boy who gave me a coin helping out his mother in a food stand. He was wearing worn out clothes and I immediately felt bad for him. I pulled Ethan with me and walked towards them. The little boy smiled at me making his entire chocolate eyes sparkle. "Two tacos please," I told the woman who looked so tired while she placed the tacos. She handed it over to me."5euro," the woman said in a tired voice and I took out a hundred and gave it to her."You can keep the change," I said immediately and her eyes widened. I had my assistant change some money into Euro for me last night. "Thank you so much" the woman held my hand with tears in her eyes and I smiled at her. I bent down to the little boy’s level and brought out a fifty and handed it to him despite his protest."Thank you for your coin" I whispered softly making his eyes widen. I ruffled his long brown hair and took Ethan's hand in mine."Have I ever told you how amazing you are?"

His thick black hair was rumpled, his head was once again on my bare chest with his hands wrapped around me. He looked like a hot mess. I moved his hands gently so I could stand up. Thankfully, he didn't wake up. I wrapped the second duvet around my body and went to press the button and ordered breakfast silently. I was on my honeymoon in Rome, staying in a suit, I was going to enjoy it and even though there was a stocked up kitchen, I didn't feel like cooking. I moved carefully to the bathroom to pee. I brushed my teeth, had a hot shower, and came out wearing a white silk bathrobe when I heard the knock. I rushed to the door careful not to wake him and collected the tray of food from the bellman, tipping him from my purse, he thanked me and left. I sat down by the bed with the tray on my lap and gently removed hi

"Hmm... I really think I would love to get used to this" I whispered softly. "Good morning Ífé mi" I blushed at his endearment, letting a yawn escape my lips. "Good morning indeed, babe," I said back making him smile wildly. I don’t think I would get tired of his smile. It simply made his beautiful blue eyes sparkle. "Let's go shower," I let out a squeal as he carried me from the soft bed in the private plane. I should have expected he had other plans, and so after the rough love making, I was really sore. He placed me down with him behind me, switching on the shower he helped me bath. Once we were done, we stepped out and we got dressed when we heard the pilot telling us to take our seats sinc

I asked curiously."It's a surprise" he smirked and I glared at him. I wanted to know now."Fine," I huffed angrily, folding my hands on my chest."Don't be like that love, we'll be here soon. I have a lot to do tonight," he purred seductively kissing me then nibbling my earlobe causing me to moan. I slapped my hand on my mouth. I didn't want the driver to hear me. He kept kissing my exposed neck and switching to my lips simultaneously. I didn't notice we had stopped."We're here," he said with a full blown smile. The door opened making me jump away from Ethan. He pulled me out to see a house. A big beautiful house that could easily be recognized as a mansion stood before me. "Ethan, why am I looking at

    Here I stood, behind the giant doors to the church in all my nervousness."You look beautiful," I jumped at my dad's sudden voice but smiled either way."Thank you daddy. I'm so nervous," I admitted, because if there's anyone who could make my nerves go, it was my dad."You can get out now,"Woah, that wasn't what I expected."But think about how you will feel. Is it worth it with him? Will you be happy with him? You need to be selfish right now and consider yourself. Are you doing this for him or are you doing it for you?, Is he the one you want to wake up next to every day of your life?, Is he the person you want to have children with?, Is he the one you want God to join you to? These questions can only be answered by you. If you can't then you still have time to get out. But I want you to know that I'm proud of you no matter your decision" I thought about it.Ethan was the only one who made me feel peaceful apart from God.

Aren't wedding days supposed to be happy days?" my dad's voice brought me back to reality, I hadn't noticed I was glaring at the mirror and made my hand get stuck in the tie. I sighed and looked at my dad. Maybe he could help me."I'm stuck dad.
