What is June up to?
"Whereis that bitch?" David screamed with clenched fists immediately after he walked into the living room. Haboring the same rage, his father followed closely behind him. "Where is she?" David thundered, putting his thunderous voice into action.June quickly left her chamber upon hearing David's thunderous scream. "Sylvia. Come out here this minute!"The scream alerted Sylvia. She was in her room. She quickly closed her journal and dashed toward the living room. By the time she got there, June and Shane had already assembled.While Leonard was taking off his silk tie, David was reaching for his phone from his jacket. He pulled out the gadget, took aggressive steps toward Sylvia and flashed the phone screen before her eyes. She was confused and had barely said a thing when David withdrew his phone. Her head began to bang and before she could demand the cause of the apprehension, Leonard stood up but instead of facing Sylvia, he walked up to June. "You let that low life speak to t
Fred cast his gaze at the route leading to the kitchen. David and June were seated right next to each other while Fred and Leonard were settled, opposite them. It was dinner time!"Maybe Fred can make the toast." David responded to his father and grabbed a glass of water from the table."Well, Fred is your best friend not mine. Or maybe, he can actually pull it off." Leonard replied with a chuckle. David turned to Fred. "What do you say Fred?"Fred's attention was far from their conversation. He couldn't take his eyes off the kitchen pathway. "Jeez,Fred! Are you that hungry?" David teased him. Fred turned to him with a blank expression. "What? You guys were saying something?"David and his father laughed at Fred's ignorance on the subject matter. "I was thinking maybe you could make a toast to my dad on his 50th birthday party since I'm not into these kind of things but you seem so hungry that you have been staring at the kitchen." David said. Fred grinned and stared at his empt
Morris pulled the van to a halt after reaching the destination. SKITTLES STORE is considered the largest grocery store in New York City. It has a large compartment dedicated to fruits and veggies.Today marks the second time Sylvia was visiting the store. Luna had brought her once and thank goodness the old chef did because she blacked out that day but now, Sylvia can find her way around the store without any assistance.“You want me to come with you?” Morris demanded and shut the door to the front seat. He had parked the van in one of the open parking spaces.Sylvia stared at the tiny paper she was holding. It was a long list and she will be a fool to turn down Morris’s offer. The day she came to the store with Luna, she had to run after the old lady, carrying things and nodding severally when she was introduced to a new compartment.Sylvia turned to Morris. “I could use some help.”The middle-aged driver adjusted his sleeves. “Let’s go!”Sylvia took the lead as they made their way t
Immediately after Sylvia turned on the cooking gas, she heard footsteps clicking toward the kitchen. With a bright smile and expectant eyes, she turned to welcome Fred.Just in time, she thought.He was standing by the entrance, dressed in loose shorts and a coffee tee shirt.“I never thought you would show up,” Sylvia remarked and resolved to tuck her hair into her chef hat.“I’m a man of my word Sylvia,” Fred replied and made his way inside the kitchen.She smiled and quickly turned around. After Fred told her that they would be making lunch together, Sylvia had goosebumps and somehow, she knew he was going to show up. She wanted him to show up and can’t deny the fact that she was starting to enjoy their conversations.“So what’s the plan?” Fred demanded and stood beside the sink with his arms folded across his chest. He was facing Sylvia who was placing a pot on the cooker.“First of all, you need a uniform if you want to be a proper chef.” She teased.“Well, why don’t you assume t
David settled on the royal couch right next to his father and crossed his legs. It was a few minutes to dinner time and Leonard had invited him for a brief discussion in his private chamber. Leonard lowered the magazine he was clasping with both hands to his chest and took off his medicated spectacles. He began to rub his left eye with the edge of his palm. “You have bags underneath your eyes, Dad,” David remarked and sat up. “Have you been sleeping sufficiently?” Leonard chuckled and fell back on the chair. “Age is such a horrible thing. I stayed up for one night to review our deals and I look like a piece of shit already.” He smirked. “You’re retired, Mr. Wells. Let your son handle the business.” David replied and arched a brow. “Are you sure you trust me on this?” Leonard gave a half smile. “I couldn’t be more sure, son. Not after that press conference.” They both smiled. Leonard cleared his throat loudly and placed the magazine on the bed right next to him. I invited you her
Barely two minutes after Sylvia left David’s room; she returned with a bottle of vodka and made her way to the table. She placed the bottle and drifted backward. There was a large glass on the table.All David had to do was dismissed her but he didn’t utter a word. She was standing right in front of him, her head lowered. David couldn’t take his eyes off her elegant legs. They stood firm in her work maxi and he found himself imagining whether she had anything on. He would love to rip off her tong and bury his head in between her legs but he made a promise.She was a fucking pompous maid whom he was not going to get himself entangled with. Maybe his father was right; he needed to stop playing with his dick around and should probably start keeping the word commitment in his mind with his marriage at hand.“You may leave. “He said after clearing his throat loudly.Sylvia gave an approving nod and left the room wondering whether David was going to consume the entire bottle of vodka at on
"You are not in love with Fred Elly. You are just infatuated. Now come with me.” Sylvia said and continued pulling her best friend toward her chamber. “I’ll show you around the house before we get to my room.”A few minutes later, they made their way into the spacious room. Sylvia dropped Eleanor’s bag on the king-size bed. “So this used to be Luna’s room, the head chef. She fell ill and I had to move in after I was declared the head chef.”Eleanor moved to the open window on her left and stood with her arms folded across her chest. She was looking at a distance but was staring at nothing in particular.“Do you know that the wing we just left behind belonged to Master David?” Sylvia asked. She was taking out Eleanor’s clothes from the bag and putting them in the closet.“Yea, Leonard’s devilishly handsome son as you say,” Eleanor replied without turning around.Sylvia smiled. “I’m sure you’ll go nuts when you see him. Fred is handsome but David is just…” She stopped and turned to Elea
Fred swallowed the lump in his throat as he tried to make sense of the spectacle before him. “What the hell are you doing?”Eleanor stood before him, so close that air could barely pass between them. She looked up at him, staring into his eyes, and at that point, Fred knew she was dying to have him.Fred held up her passionate stare. There was no denying that she was incredibly hot and was beginning to turn him on but he knew that if he gives in to her, he will be dancing to the tune of lust.He took two steps backward and Eleanor let out a gasp.Why was he being so hard when she was standing right in front of him, almost naked? All he had to do was make a move and she’ll get him grunting in pleasure. She decided to take the bull by the horn after looking down at the bulge in his trousers.“I know you want me. I want you too.” She spat and was about to grab his dick when he quickly moved away.Fred folded his arms across his chest and broke into a dry laugh. “You must be mistaken.” He
"Come in!” Leonard responded from the inside.Sylvia exhaled sharply before reaching for the doorknob. She opened the door and stepped into the chamber feeling quite nervous.For the past two days, she had spent time with Leonard at the table. They had spoken about the future and other things and she was starting to grow comfortable around him and now, he had just summoned her to his room that morning.When she got into his room, he invited her to sit on the sofa adjacent to his bed. While rubbing her palms against each other tenderly, Sylvia sat and cast her gaze to the floor.Leonard cleared his throat loudly and threw his back against his chair.“David told me everything.” he began. He then took a deep breath. “I'm sorry!”Sylvia finally looked up at him.“I'm sorry for lying to you. When the autopsy report came and it was revealed that Ben was strangled, I was lost.” Leonard said.Sylvia sighed.“The thing about influential people is that sometimes, you can't differentiate your fr
Flashback!“What if I can't do it?” she said with trembling lips.The man sighed and walked up to her. He slowly reached for her hand. He then opened her palm and placed two pills inside.“We’ve talked about this over and over again June. You are not a baby. You can pull this off so go out there and show Daddy that you're a smart ass.” he said and patted her hand tenderly.June opened her palm and stared at the pills. Then, she slipped them inside her purse and took a deep breath.“I've done a lot for you child and I'm not asking you to pay me but if you can pull this one trick off, I'll be the happiest man in the world. I won’t ask for another favor other than this but if only she knew that it was just the beginning of his endless demands.She shut her eyes and felt a sense of calmness beginning to envelop her as he continued motivating her. He thenmoved closer to her and grabbed her arm like he was going to hug her.Then he began to whisper into her left ear.“If you want to make it
“You said we were only visiting June. You didn't tell me we were also going to see Cathrina.” Sylvia lamented as they traced their way towards David’s car.“If we are bent on making things right then we have to leave no stone unturned,” David replied. When they got to the car, Sylvia threw her back against the vehicle and heaved a deep sigh. David moved closer to her. He tilted her jaw with two fingers. “As long as you're with me, you don't have to worry about anything.”She threw her arms around him. “I love you, David.”“I love you most.”They got into the car and drove away. After driving for about twenty minutes, they made it to the detention center. As usual, Cathrina was informed of her visitors and she granted them an audience. The moment Sylvia and David walked hand in hand, Cathrina became emotional. She sniffled as tears began to well up in her eyes. The duo settled on the bench facing her. “You know what Sylvia? I used to think you were one of those gold diggers who
“Did you just hear what Fred said?” Sylvia flung the question at David the moment they walked into his room. “We can't get married in ten days.”David crashed by the edge of his bed with a sigh.The restless Sylvia began to pace.“Come and sit with me,” David told her.She didn't. She kept pacing back and forth.David stood up and grabbed her by the hand. He then led her to the bed.“There’s a lot on our plate David. There’s June to deal with, there's Griffin, and now…“Do you trust me?” David interrupted.She turned to him. “You know I do.”David swallowed and took charge of her hands. “There’s something you need to know.”He was staring directly into her eyes. Sylvia felt a tingling in her eyeballs. “There’s something you need to know too.”David sighed and then cleared his throat loudly. “I'll go first.”Sylvia encouraged him with a nod.“I met June recently.”Her eyes widened in horror.David didn't take his eyes off her. “I left home the other day because I couldn't bring myself
“You have five minutes!”Sylvia shut her eyes and opened them immediately. “You can do this, Sylvie.” She muttered under her breath and began marching forward.After making breakfast that morning, she decided to visit Cathrina at the detention center. She had thought about it the whole night and was ready to face one of her demons.She walked up to cell 4 as instructed by the woman at the counter and before opening the door, she stopped to ponder.What if David rages mad at the idea that she went behind his back to confront Cathrina?She sighed and reminded herself that she was on a personal quest. She will only be at peace once the circumstances surrounding her father’s death were laid to rest and now that she was carrying David’s child, she wanted to be at peace with the Wells.Sylvia pushed the door open and when she stepped in, she met Cathrina looking at her straight in the face.“I was taken aback when the officer told me one Sylvia Baker came to see me.” Cathrina spat and motio
David pulled open the door to his chamber. He walked inside with a bright smile and traced his way to the mirror.“I'm going to be a father!” David muttered under his breath as goosebumps took charge of his body. He stared at his reflection with prestige. Amidst the chaos, David never thought that he could be this happy. He cupped his face with his hands and broke into a resounding laughter. He quickly moved to the table beside his bed and began to pull all the cabinets out. When he got to the last cabinet, he collected all the photos and dumped them on the floor.When David returned to New York, he had asked his agent to get him the pictures of all the curvy girls in town; The one's he found appealing to the eye and for the past few months, he had been exploring them.“No more!” David declared and seized the pictures.He grabbed a matchbox and dashed out. When he got to the backyard, he set the pictures ablaze and headed back to his room to continue his cleanup.He then collected
David was about to usher Sylvia into the car when Eleanor slipped out of her corner behind a grocery store. Immediately after David pulled up right in front of Sylvia, Eleanor stayed hidden.Sylvia wiped her tears with the edge of her palms and moved closer to Eleanor who was greeting her with open arms.They shared a warm embrace.“We have a new mummy on the block!” Eleanor spat.Sylvia broke off their embrace and stared at Eleanor with astonishment.Eleanor giggled and squeezed her hands.David faced the women. “Eleanor called me when she saw you walking into that store.”“How did you know the kind of pill I came for?” Sylvia threw the question at Ellie.Eleanor folded her arms across her chest. “Well, I followed you inside the pharmacy and when I saw you pick those abortion pills, I made my judgment and decided to get baby daddy.”Sylvia exhaled.“How could you even think of doing such a thing without informing me, Sylvia? I thought we were each other's rescue mate?” Ellie said and
Chapter 105Sylvia kept tossing from one edge of the bed to the other. She had settled for green tea that night because her stomach couldn't take anything. She had lost count of the times she had thrown up that night.It was past midnight yet she was unable to fall asleep. Her joints were aching and her head was hurting badly. She was just restless. She sighed and tried to sit up. The moment she threw her back against the wall, she felt her intestines tying into a knot. She groaned in agony. Sylvia couldn't wait for morning so she could hit the hospital. She had one thing in mind; food poisoning.***“Are you ready?” Maurice demanded after Sylvia stepped out.It was a few minutes past 9 am. Immediately after she woke up, she told Maurice that he was going to drive her to a hospital so immediately after breakfast, Sylvia got changed and then set out to meet him.“Yeah,” she replied and hurried after Maurice to the parking lot. He helped her get settled in front and after he was r
“You came to gloat? Go ahead son, it's what I deserve. Your father didn't make a mistake by keeping me here.” Cathrina said and hugged her knees with her chest.David moved closer to her and positioned his hands on his hips. “Did you say, my father? The last time I checked, you wanted to give me away to someone very easily.”She exhaled sharply and gave a smile but beneath her smile, David could see her pain.“You didn't care about how I felt or what I stood for. You just wanted to fulfill your selfish wish but I promise you, your lover will be apprehended and you guys might get to enjoy a little reunion before you end up in prison.” David said.“Leonard is a good man!”David chuckled. “Since when did you figure it out?”“I didn't just figure that out but I've always known from the start but to be honest, I have never been fair to him. I married him and never loved him.” she then look up at David. “When you meet someone you love, don't hesitate to spend the rest of your life with them
