Entangled Ties Chapter 9
She ignored him and kept quiet."Brielle." George called. She kept as she chose her clothes for the next day and her pajamas. George walked up to her. "Brielle, I understand that you are angry, but you should have picked my call. You don't know the reason I was calling you." "I was closed for the day, so my obligation to you ended for that day." She made to walk past him, and he held her wrist. "Am still your boss, and you have to pick my call whenever I call." "Am sorry sir." She looked everywhere but his face."Brielle, I was so stressed up this morning, I didn't know when I said that.""It's okay, you are my boss." She retorted."I don't mean it that way." "The last I checked, in the contract I signed and I quote. What happens in the office stays in the office, what happens in the house stays in the house. So I beg to ask, what happened to that clause." She said, giving him a questioning look. "I know about that, just listen to me." She kept looking at him, waiting for him to

An hour later, Michael entered George's office as his office door swung open."So, what's the plan?" George asked, throwing the question at him as he took a seat."Alright, here's the deal. Abacus is a great project that many companies would be interested in. We'll turn their own weapons against them. Jeffery will connect to Grot and showcase the Abacus project for sale. We'll sell it to at least three companies, and then we'll push those companies to launch the project as quickly as possible. This will create tension between Fasher and Mr. Brown. What do you think?" Michael explained."It sounds like a solid plan. Are you sure Fasher and Mr. Brown haven't resolved their issues yet?" George inquired."I've checked, the issues are still ongoing. And you'll have to come up with another project that's even more desirable than Abacus, if possible. We can start working on it now, and present it to Mr. Brown before his meeting with Fasher," Michael suggested."He won't accept it, and you kno

How is that good news, and why is there a change of plan?" "Because Yaya caught on to it, and so from this forth, we have to act more like a couple around the house." Brielle stood at her spot staring at him like he had grown two horns. "So get your remaining things let's go, Yaya is waiting for us, let us not keep her waiting." Brielle packed her things."I will carry it." "Thanks, I can help myself." George insisted and carried it. "Why are you acting nice, you know, Yaya is not here, so I don't see a need for this." George was silent, as they got to his room, he arranged her things. His sudden change of behaviour was like a mystery to her. "Let's go." He held her hand as they went down to the dining room to join Yaya. "Have you guys reconciled?" "Yes." George was fast enough to answer. "Elle, don't mind my grandson, he acts stupid sometimes." Yaya said as she hit George's hand that was on the table. As the dinner progressed, Brielle felt a hand on her thighs, she looked down

"Oh, Brielle you are here?""Yes, how are you today?" "Am good, why are you here so late?" She replied, stealing a glance at George. "Good evening Ma'am." "You must be her boss." "Then you be George Barlow." "Yes, it's nice meeting you.""I can't say the same for you." Nana retorted."I know." "Am glad you know that, and what are you doing here?""Nana." Brielle half yelled. "You don't have to be so straight about it. She rolled her eyes at Brielle and turned to face George. "I came with Brielle to come see you." George replied."Margret came today, she kept me company." Margaret is a little girl that lives in their neighborhood, she loves hanging out with Nana and Brielle. Especially when they go to the pack. "She has been asking about you.""You know she had a life, and a lot of things you deprived her from. Her friends and I." "Am sorry, it turned out that way. I didn't mean for it to turn out like that." George said with a sad expression. "Nana,it's time for us to go. I w

"I don't want to talk about him." Brielle replied and returned to her food.The dining became silent for a few minutes, she looked and saw how George was concentrating on his food. It's like her answer took them back to square one, of being in silent company of each other, she was starting to enjoy his company."You know, he was an abusive father." George raised his head at her voice. "You don't have to say it.""He didn't give a penny about me, it has always been grandma. She took over his responsibility""I really admire her resilience, even when he is her son." George butted in "Yes, she took me from him at three, she wasn't always around, but after she came back from one of her trips, and saw me begging my neighbours for food, she cried that day, and since then she didn't allow me to go back to him. She made it her responsibility to take care of me. You know, that man comes every day demanding I go back with him." Brielle laughed trying to hold in her tears. "It's his guts for m

"For what in particular." "I don't know, for everything." She said, rubbing her head."How can you apologize for everything? Are you also apologizing that I dropped you off, or that I sent my regards to your grandmother. I want to know what in particular." "George, please let's not do this.""Ok then." He laid down."George." When he didn't answer her, she called him two times. When there wasn't any reply coming from him. "If you want to snub me fine, go and do that." She took her pillow and left the room."Where do you think you are going to?""None of your business." "It's my business.""Why." She retorted with an angry expression."Because I chose for it to be my business." They stared at each other, before George broke the ice. "Like seriously, you are angry right now. I should be the angry one.""No, tell me shouldn't I be angry, you laid down there ignoring me." "That's because I was angry." "No problem then, maybe when you aren't angry we can talk again, for now I will li

"Ehhm, I will have to think about that." Brielle said, feigning thinking expression. "I need my answer now, you had all night and this morning to think." "You need to work, sir." She pecked him, and made a beeline for her office, when George drew her back. And claimed her lips, he nibbled on her lips, gaining access into her mouth. But their heated moments was cut short, with a knock at the door.Brielle jumped from his arm, and strengthened her clothes, when she was done. George answered the door."Come in." Mr. Rowan came into the door, Brielle greeted her on her way out."We are done with the evaluation, this is the hard copy, I also had it sent to your email.""That's nice, I really appreciate your team, await my response." Their discussion ended, and George continued with his day's activities, when his phone chimed alerting him of a text message. "Check the tabloid." From Michael. He was happy seeing the headlines, he was happy with the progress. All that is left of him now i

Brielle had a short night, she was afraid to accept George's date, scared that he will still leave at the end of their agreed six months. Working for him for few months now, she knew about his sexual life, it rotates around many women, this was another reason she decided to quench her feelings for him, afraid of getting hurt like him. She did know when darkness elopped her.She woke up the next morning, with the noise coming from the bathroom. It's Saturday, she will be hanging out with her grandmother and Margret. "Good morning." She greeted when she saw George come out of the bathroom. This made her mood sour, she stood up from the bed and went out. She met Yaya in the living room. They talked and then made breakfast together. George came down and joined for breakfast, the it turned out to be the most awkward breakfast. After their breakfast, Yaya and Brielle left. Margret opened the door for them. "Elleeee." She yelled on seeing her, jumping into her arm. She pecked her forehea

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. “George.” 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.“Let's go inside.” 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.“I missed you.” 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.“Hi, Dad.” She greeted when she saw her Dad sitting in the living room. “How was your date?” He asked trying to get a reaction from George, and he su

Brielle was surprised at how she anticipated seeing him.“Does this mean that I missed him?” She asked herself. “No, I didn't” She pinched her cheeks, her phone rang bringing her out of her thinking, and her stomach slipped immediately after seeing the caller.“Hi.” She said when she picked up the call.“How are you?” “I'm fine.”“I got your test.” She sent him a ‘thank you’ test for allowing her to stay in his place and that she would be staying in her father’s house.She hesitated before she answered.“Yeah.”“Elle, can we meet up today?” She gave it a thought, not knowing what to say, what if George arrives while she is out to meet him?“I'm still here.”“Huh, sorry about that, yeah we can meet.” She said before she could even give it another thought.“Ok, I will pick you up in the next few minutes.”“Yeah, ok bye.” 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

“Elle, please listen to me.” George let out immediately as she picked up the call. The other side went quiet at his words. “I'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.”She 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. “Nana.” She called out immediately the call line connected.“Elle, you scared me.”“I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking right and left.”“I understand, but try to kill this old woman before her time, she has a lot to do.” Brielle giggles at her words.“Nana, you are old, what else do you plan to do?”“Witness you walk down the aisle and then carry your baby.” 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.“Just hear me out, please.” She blurted immediately she opened the door and saw him standing there.“I'm so sorry the way things turned between us, I never wished it happened this way.” 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.“I 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.” Brielle felt bad at his words, she was all ready to give him a try but with her present situation, it would be impossible.“Noah 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.”“Brielle I knew of your condition before pouring my heart to you.” “No, you don't about it, how would it make you feel if I accepted your request while

“This Is Brielle.”“Oh.”“Is Noah with you?”“Yes.”“Could you please give him the phone?”“He is sleeping right now, after going on and on about how you are avoiding him because he confessed to you about how he feels.”“I wasn't avoiding him, I was only trying to get my shit life together and face him.”“You should tell him that when he returns.”“When is he coming back?”“I don't know, but he thinks leaving the house will give you the space you want and make you move freely.”Brielle felt bad instantly at his words.“Please when he gets up, tell him to call me, I want to speak with him.”“I will do just that.” 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 didn’t 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
Entangled Ties Chapter 93
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.“I wish things didn't go this way.” She held her hair tightly, groaning.“I can't even look him straight in the eyes.” 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. “You should come down and eat, you have been up all night.”“Huh.” She let out, surprised how he knew. “I will be down in a few minutes.” She shut the door immediately and leaned her back against it. “Shit he knew, but how.” She smirked at nobody before dashing into the bathroom to ge

“Have you been able to reach out to her yet?” Michael asked George who sat behind his desk working on his system.“I think I will give her a little time to get over all the drama.” He replied.“Do you know where she is now?” “She flew out of the country, probably she is with her father.” “I think you should try to reach out to her now.”“I would like to do this the way I wish.”“Anything that goes well for you.” 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. ***************“It's been two days, won't you ask why I'm here?” Brielle asked Noah as they had their dinner. “I believe you tell me when you are comfortable.” 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

“I'm here to see George.” “And who are you?” The Secretary sized Sapphire, “And any appointment with him?”She glared at him and walked towards the office.“No no, you can't just go to his office.” He ran from his desk to stop her, but before he could get to her, she sprinted and ran into the office. “What the hell are you doing here?” George half yelled when Sapphire burst into his office.“I'm sorry sir.” The secretary apologized. “And you let her pass you, I don't think you need this job anymore if you can't handle an intruder.”“I'm so sorry sir.” he apologized again with his head bowed, scared to stare at him in the eyes. “I think you should face me, not him.”“And what the hell do you think you are doing in my office?”“Ohh, I knew it, I was a fool to be nothing to your promises.” The secretary took that as his cue to leave.“Just leave now, we will sought everything out later.”“No no, I ain't going anywhere, we will talk here and now, and I demand answers to my questions,
Entangled Ties Chapter 90
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. “When will you be tired of pretending?” She closed her eyes tight, she felt him peck her on her lips, he lingered on her lips for quite a time.“Get off me.” She jerked up from the bed, pushing his chest.“I thought that's what you wanted.” 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.“Do you need my help?”“You wish, I could get there by myself.”“Are you sure, 'cause I thought I heard you hiss?”“Quite well, thanks.”He turned and continued working with his laptop. “I thought you wanted to leave the room.”“You want me gone?”“No, yes.” She answered confused, as she couldn't bear t
