IN FREDERICK MANSION."Clinton for the life of me, I will send you the money when I have it.""Those words have been on repeat for the past few days now. When will I get it." "Oh my goodness, why are you so impatient?""Lucy you know not to test me, or you won't like my next action."'Oh bullshit, I have heard enough of that, what will you do, tell Ford, go tell him." The person on the other line became quiet. "Something got your tongue, I'm sure you know where he is right now, why don't you go and tell him about it, let's know who will face the wrath." The line went dead. "Stupid asshole, threatening me all the time." He tossed her phone on the bed and paced around her room. The incessant call from Clinton has been taking a toll on her. She wishes she had the money, but after his last call, he demanded a huge amount of money to take care of the doctor. With her trained relationship with Ford, she couldn't ask for money. He only credits her at a stipulated time. Her only hope now w

Lucy eavesdropped on the discussion going on in her husband's office, but she couldn't make out what was being said. She scuttled away from the door when their discussion ended to avoid being caught. She peered from her hiding place and watched Mr. Darlington, Frederick's consortium, come out from the office, she watched him leave the house. "Can I come in? I have something important to discuss with you."He nodded and watched her sit on the couch. "Don't you think it's high time, Clifford and Sapphire take over some responsibility in the company?""That should be his decision to make, not ours.""I think you should bring it up, and make him see it.""They are adults, they should do what suits them the best." Lucy gaped at her husband and left. "What did he say?" Sapphire queries her mom. "There is something with Darlington being here." "Why do you say so, he is his lawyer, he can be with him any time." Clifford chipped in."No, I thought the same thing, but when I got into his

"What does he plan to do now?""Nana I don't know, this isn't just what I want now." "I'm sure he must have a valid reason he doesn't want to get back with her." "I don't need this getting out now, it's just a matter of three months, this will be over, and everybody will be free." "Even if it gets out, it wasn't your fault, you didn't leak it to his ex.""Yeah that's the thing, the main goal was for everything to be secret, things will get complicated if it gets out.""Just calm down, I trust George will find a way to resolve it."There was a rapped knock on the door indicating the presence of someone. "I think he is here." She gave her grandmother a peck and made for the door."How did it go?" Brielle inquired as they drove back to the house. "I changed my mind." "What do you mean?""I didn't meet with her.""Why? Where have you been?" "I went to meet Micheal." Brielle gave him a surprise look. "Look I understand that wasn't our initial plan, I know her very well, she won't a

"You have been all giddy today.""I have every reason to be giddy when you are here with me.""There is more to this.""And what do you think it is?" The feigned a thinking gaze, biting in her finger."Yaya is returning today.""No.""You have solved the issue with your ex." "Bingo, and guess what else?""What?""Tomorrow is the weekend." "Hell no, I won't be spending it with you." She scurried away from his lap and sat beside him. "How do you plan to do that?""I won't be disclosing my scheme to you." "Unfortunately, you won't be able to pull it off. And my weekend starts now." Before she could bat her eyes, he engulfed her. "George, wait, noooo." He paid no heed to her and carried her to the room. "I have to do the dishes." "That will be taken care of later." "You can't be serious right now, put me down." She yelled till they got to their room. Soon enough her yell turned to a loud moan. "Can I ask a question?" She inquired laying on the bed with him, her head resting on his

They spent the rest of the day touring the city. "I'm tired." Brielle muttered as she sank on the chair in the restaurant. Their day has been full of activities. The server came and took their order."My eyes are getting heavy.' "Just eat, we will retire back to the hotel."Their food came and they ate quietly and drove back to their hotel. Brielle sprawled on the bed immediately after they got to their suite. "This bed is so soft." She crawled to the middle of the bed. George stood looking at her smiling. "Come and lie down." She patted beside her, giggling. "You need to take your bath." "Nooo, come and lie down here." "I insist, get up." She feigned a crying expression, "Just lie down, and will take my bath." "This is the consequence of finishing a whole bottle." He mumbled to himself, but she heard him."I didn't finish it alone, you drank with me." "But you drank more than half of the bottle, it's beginning to take its effect on you.""Are you saying I'm drunk?" "Nooo, I

The bellboy scurried out of the room, Brielle sat with her mouth agape staring at him still confused about what happened. "What did he do?""He was staring at you.""What, just staring." "More like staring at your breast." She looked down at her body and covered up her body with the sheets."I didn't notice that." The room became quiet, as they ate their food, halfway through the meal George spoke up. "Where do you want to go today?""Let's visit the beach." She has heard so much about their beach, looked them up on the internet, and dreamt of visiting there so many times. "Beach it is then." "Yeah." She bounced on the bed like a baby that just received her favorite candy. She filled her mouth with bacon, and that was when the realization hit her that she didn't have anything to wear. "Idon'thaveanythingtowear." She spoke with her mouth full. "What did you say?" She swallowed her food before speaking again. "I said I don't have anything to wear." "We will sort that out.""How

"So how was your trip?""Nana your snitched on me." "I did that for the best, the glow is showing on you. Lie you didn't enjoy that." Brielle giggled at that. "Even though, you should have tipped me off.""Then I will be a spoiler." "You still should have, then I will act surprised when I see it.""Nah nah." Nana clicked her tongue. "You are so bad at that, I'm sure you will give yourself out.""You still doubt my acting skill, I have improved." "Tell that to someone who didn't watch you perform in your final grade." "Nana, that has been a long time ago.""Still at that, you still suck at acting, I can easily see through your every lie." She pouted at Nana and folded her arm. "So do you mind telling me the details of vacation, or do I call the FBI." "It's was so fun and exciting." This had her remembering what happened the night they visited the beach, George had her at the edge, he turned her into jelly, she couldn't even walk out of the restaurant properly, after he was done

I will be leaving earlier today." "Ok." This had to be the first word they told each other since they woke up, and on their way to work.They went about their daily routine ignoring the presence of each other. George was tempted to start a chatter with her, but decided against it several times.It was getting close to the time Brielle is meant to see her father, she packed her bags ready to leave, she was considering whether to inform George about her departure but wanted to avoid getting into an argument with him. She wandered back and forth in front of his office, confused about whether to go in or not, she made her final decision and left.George watched her leave through his laptop, he was tempted to go after her, afraid that he might harm her. He switched off his camera and went back to work. "Is he here already?""Yes, a few minutes ago." She nodded her head and walked to the sitting room, where John was sitting at the edge of the chair uncomfortably. "Hey." He jotted at the

He walked over to her slowly, not removing his eyes from hers. Brielle stood certified on her spot, she never expected him to be here so soon. โGeorge.โ She called out not knowing what to do at that moment, whether to jump on him, she was excited seeing him after such a long time, but she tried to hold her excitement because the situation didn't call for it.He walked over to her standing a foot away from her, they could feel each other breath.โLet's go inside.โ She blurted when they stood there for some time, before she could comprehend what was happening, he drew her closer to his chest and hugged her.โI missed you.โ He said as he ran his finger on her back, Brielle was lost in his scent and wished not to be separated from him again. But it eventually had to come to an end, he detached from her and held her hand leading her inside.โHi, Dad.โ She greeted when she saw her Dad sitting in the living room. โHow was your date?โ He asked trying to get a reaction from George, and he su

Brielle was surprised at how she anticipated seeing him.โDoes this mean that I missed him?โ She asked herself. โNo, I didn'tโ She pinched her cheeks, her phone rang bringing her out of her thinking, and her stomach slipped immediately after seeing the caller.โHi.โ She said when she picked up the call.โHow are you?โ โI'm fine.โโI got your test.โ She sent him a โthank youโ test for allowing her to stay in his place and that she would be staying in her fatherโs house.She hesitated before she answered.โYeah.โโElle, can we meet up today?โ She gave it a thought, not knowing what to say, what if George arrives while she is out to meet him?โI'm still here.โโHuh, sorry about that, yeah we can meet.โ She said before she could even give it another thought.โOk, I will pick you up in the next few minutes.โโYeah, ok bye.โ The call disconnected, and she stared at herself in the mirror, she never planned on seeing him so soon, until she got her life together and solved things out with Ge

โElle, please listen to me.โ George let out immediately as she picked up the call. The other side went quiet at his words. โI'm really sorry for the way everything is playing, all I'm asking is that we meet, I want to tell you everything, I want you to see the truth in all of this, which will be better if we meet.โShe didn't reply and disconnected the call, she stared at her phone like it was a foreign object, before dropping it and going into the bathroom not before making a mental note to call Nana when she comes out.She stepped out of the bathroom a few minutes later and picked up her phone to call Nana. โNana.โ She called out immediately the call line connected.โElle, you scared me.โโI'm sorry, I wasn't thinking right and left.โโI understand, but try to kill this old woman before her time, she has a lot to do.โ Brielle giggles at her words.โNana, you are old, what else do you plan to do?โโWitness you walk down the aisle and then carry your baby.โ Brielle ran her fingers a

She heard a knock on her door, and she took in a deep breath before going to open the door, knowing who was behind it.โJust hear me out, please.โ She blurted immediately she opened the door and saw him standing there.โI'm so sorry the way things turned between us, I never wished it happened this way.โ It was like she couldn't remember all the have practiced to tell him, nothing was coming out of her mouth again. She stood rooted at her spot gaping at him.โI understand, I also wish my heart didn't have to make such a decision, I'm sorry for allowing you to get in my head.โ Brielle felt bad at his words, she was all ready to give him a try but with her present situation, it would be impossible.โNoah please don't say it like that, I wish this was another circumstance I would have accepted you, but with my present condition I can't.โโBrielle I knew of your condition before pouring my heart to you.โ โNo, you don't about it, how would it make you feel if I accepted your request while

โThis Is Brielle.โโOh.โโIs Noah with you?โโYes.โโCould you please give him the phone?โโHe is sleeping right now, after going on and on about how you are avoiding him because he confessed to you about how he feels.โโI wasn't avoiding him, I was only trying to get my shit life together and face him.โโYou should tell him that when he returns.โโWhen is he coming back?โโI don't know, but he thinks leaving the house will give you the space you want and make you move freely.โBrielle felt bad instantly at his words.โPlease when he gets up, tell him to call me, I want to speak with him.โโI will do just that.โ She disconnected the call immediately and slumped in her bed.Everything seemed to be happening so fast, she taking the risk to confess her love to George, only to walk in on the most unimaginable news, and then Noah, she didnโt know why he chose to do this at this vulnerable time, her stomach churned to remind of another problem she was facing, she felt nauseous and ran to th

Brielle was perplexed after last night's event, she never expected Noah to go about the whole situation in that manner, he didn't allow her to say anything, asking her to think about it. She stayed awake the whole of the night trying to digest the whole situation happenings in her life. She was overwhelmed by her growing feelings for him, but her heart still aches whenever she remembers George.โI wish things didn't go this way.โ She held her hair tightly, groaning.โI can't even look him straight in the eyes.โ She stayed in bed most of the morning lamenting the way things turned out.The knock on her door brought her back from reverie. She walked reluctantly to the door, knowing the person behind it. โYou should come down and eat, you have been up all night.โโHuh.โ She let out, surprised how he knew. โI will be down in a few minutes.โ She shut the door immediately and leaned her back against it. โShit he knew, but how.โ She smirked at nobody before dashing into the bathroom to ge

โHave you been able to reach out to her yet?โ Michael asked George who sat behind his desk working on his system.โI think I will give her a little time to get over all the drama.โ He replied.โDo you know where she is now?โ โShe flew out of the country, probably she is with her father.โ โI think you should try to reach out to her now.โโI would like to do this the way I wish.โโAnything that goes well for you.โ Michael left his office with that. George decided to give Brielle a space after he found out last night that she left the country. Maybe it will help her to calm down. ***************โIt's been two days, won't you ask why I'm here?โ Brielle asked Noah as they had their dinner. โI believe you tell me when you are comfortable.โ She shrugged it off and continued with her food, she was surprised by his action, she expected him to throw questions at her, but he kept his calm and didn't bother her. She wanted him to ask her what the problem was, she wanted to see him care, but

Brielle woke up all sore, she felt a heavy hand draped around her waist, she noticed George stir, and she closed her eyes again. She missed his touch the seconds he removed his hand from her waist, but she refused to open her eyes. โWhen will you be tired of pretending?โ She closed her eyes tight, she felt him peck her on her lips, he lingered on her lips for quite a time.โGet off me.โ She jerked up from the bed, pushing his chest.โI thought that's what you wanted.โ He smirked, and she rolled her eyes at him. She tried to get down from the bed, but her legs betrayed her, and her thighs were hurting. She knew she needed his help to get to the toilet, but she was hesitant to ask him.โDo you need my help?โโYou wish, I could get there by myself.โโAre you sure, 'cause I thought I heard you hiss?โโQuite well, thanks.โHe turned and continued working with his laptop. โI thought you wanted to leave the room.โโYou want me gone?โโNo, yes.โ She answered confused, as she couldn't bear t
