I looked at her when that rolled out of my mouth, but she still had a clear expression on her face. “That’s not what he asked you Starr. he didn’t ask you if you have a fucking medical condition. He asked you to be his girlfriend.”

“So what? I should lie to him and lead him on for how long? Huh? I should do the same thing Charles did to me to him? Is that what you are asking me to do?” I threw at her and I saw her face softened in pain as tears flowed out of her eyes.

“I just want you to be happy. I literally just want my best friend to be happy. That’s all I want.” She continued to speak as tears flowed down her eyes.

I nodded my head immediately as I wiped the tears that spilled out of mine. “I understand, but I’ll be happy if he is happy.”

I spoke and I see her tilt her head. “Really? Is that the lie you’ve fed yourself with? You and I know that’s a fucking lie.” She spat, and I shrugged my shoulders.

“Then what would you have me do?”

“Tell him about it, I am sure he wouldn’t___” I

    CHAPTER 50✍️I drove hastily to his place. I kept pressing my honk at intervals. And after some minutes I arrived at his huge gate and I stopped.I didn’t know how to approach what I was about to do. What would I say to the gate, man? I opened my car door as I pressed the honk one more time to signal the gate keeper and I came down from my car and banged on the gate with my bare hands.Seconds later, I saw the gate man run open the little space to check out who was banging on the gate by this time of the night. Yes, it was the early hours of the night, but it was fucking raining heavily.“Madam Starr? Ma’am, what are you doing? It’s raining heavily.” He said, but I raised my voice high so he can hear me.“Yeah, I know, but would you please open the gate? I need to see your boss.” I replied almost immediately, and he nodded and slide and pushed the gate open.I went back into my car and drove inside the compound, not without mouthing him a thank you. I hurriedly ca

    CHAPTER 51✍I dropped my hands from his shoulders and took a step back with my eyes glued to the ground. I couldn’t look at his face for some seconds and when I eventually did and our eyes met, he shook his head, tug his fingers in his hair and sighed out loud.“Are you going to say something?” He asked, his voice low and calm. I nodded before speaking.“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have kissed you if that’s what is making you pissed.” His face arched with confusion as he placed his fingers on his jaw, rubbing off on his beards.“You really think I am pissed because you kissed me?” He threw at me as he raised an eyebrow, clearly angry at my outburst, “I don’t understand you, Starr. Today, you imply that you love me, and then you reject me and the next day you come to my house to kiss me? Is that it?” He explained as he tried to put the knot together. “What do you really want? He added.I stayed quiet, so he flipped his tongue over his lips and momentarily placed hi

    Chapter 52✍️My mouth was partly apart while I lay there with my arms spread, moaning out from the intense pleasure the love of my life was making me feel.He continued, as he pulled his finger out and pushed it in again. He continued as he fastened his pace and added another finger. Flipping my clitoris continually with his other finger made me jerk forward.I couldn’t take it anymore. He was drowning me in pleasure so I raised my back off the bed and placed my hand on his cheek, rubbed it slowly while he stared at me and smiled, clearly loving how helpless I was under him.“Oh my God! Seven,” I called out his name as I threw my head backwards and shifted closer to feel every inch of his finger.“Oh, fuck!” I exclaimed loudly as I tried to pat my clit, but he took my hands off my body and placed it back on the bed. He continued to flip and finger me and I squirt on his fingers, arching my body to meet his. He pulled his fingers out as I took my eyes to meet hi

    The alarm was loud as it jolted me out of my sleep, as I rubbed my eyes and snapped it open. I came in face with that pair of eyes that always made me feel butterflies in my belly. “Good morning beautiful.” And I smiled, “Hey.” “You alright? How was your night?” He asked, with a huge grin on his face.“It was good, but clearly intruded by that annoying alarm of yours.” I explained as I pushed closer and his arms come to wrap my waist. He chuckled and placed a soft kiss on my lips, “Well, for an ambitious woman, it shouldn’t be more better.” He spoke teasingly and I playfully slapped his chest then we ended up laughing.Seconds later, his facial expression moved from a smiley one to a less serious one, “You meant what said last night right?” I hesitated for a while to make his heart panic a little, and I saw that it was working because his face was turning to a hopeless one, before I bursted out in laughter. “Of course, I meant it.” Then he smiled and smacked my ass, “Really?

    “What?” I exclaimed with my eyes bulging out in shock and a small smile crept onto my face.“But, babe, you don’t have to.” I spoke quickly and as soon as I heard him heave a sigh, I knew he wanted to but I didn’t want to stress him.“I meant to say that you shouldn’t stress yourself cause I have my car here with me.” I stated the obvious with my hands stretched toward it.But then I heard his sweet voice at the far end. Although, network was breaking, but I managed to grasp his response.“That shouldn’t be an issue. I would inform carter, the porter in the company, to take it to your place, okay?” He suggested and hesitantly I agreed immediately.“Alright that’s fine, but I’m not at work right now. I’m at sip and vibe.” I stated and I hear his end go silent, so I added. “I just met with Chris.”Hesitantly, he replied, “Okay, just stay right there. I’ll soon get to you.”Minutes later, I saw him drive as he approached where I stood, and I couldn’t help but gawk at his car. It is a Bla

    Chapter 55✍️️I couldn’t help but laugh. Lizzy’s laugh cracked me up. “Elizabeth,” I said, “I’ll speak to you when I get home. I spoke through gritted teeth. I didn’t speak out loud cause Seven was on a call with Clarice about a major project.I could feel that she raised her brows to respond, but I gulped as I wait for it. “Really? The same way you promised to be home today? But you didn’t?” She stated, and I opened my mouth to defend myself, but I was short of words. I didn’t know what to say, so I literally begged her, “Okay, I apologize, but it was very important, so I had to stay.”“Really?” she questioned, and I nodded like she could see me.I heard her clap her hands together and replied, “Okay, I’ll see you tomorrow, then. I’m serious, Starr. Tomorrow has to be tomorrow.” And I replied, still nodding my head before speaking.“Of course, boss.” I spoke, and I heard her chuckle.“Well____” she dragged before adding, “Goodnight….

    CHAPTER 56✍️The day was moving smoothly, but I couldn’t concentrate at work. He still tried to have a conversation with me after I finished bathing, but I wasn’t in that mood, so I gave silence and laughed a little at whatever he said.After we both finished preparing, he offered to drive me to work because my car had already been sent home. We walked to his car with my heels clicking the floor.Abruptly, he held my hands back and held me by my waist in front of his glaring gate keeper. He asked if I was okay, that I should talk to him, but I dispatched it, and said everything was fine, but now I regret it.My coming to the office today was clearly a mistake. I couldn’t work, I couldn’t attend to the reports that I should. The reports of 130pages are to be checked and sent by me to the marketing teams. It should be finalized by Friday. That’s three days from now and I was yet to do them. I was a mess.Finally, it was closing hours, and I quickly packed the files

    Chapter 57✍️I knew from the onset that he never liked Kay. He had always hated Kelvin right from the first day he saw him. I remember when I and kelvin came down the stairs, and he kept on gawking at him, so hearing his voice in the background made him angry.And I was sure different thoughts were going through his mind at this moment, but I just can’t be away from my best friend that I’ve known for years even before I met him just because we are now together and he doesn’t like him.That’s his own issue to deal not mine. I’d see kelvin anytime I want. The love I have for him won’t stop me. Moreover, I’m sure he’d understand considering that he knows what it means to take someone very dare to your heart. If the girl on his chest isn’t important, he wouldn’t tattoo her on his skin and keep her identity away from me when he claims that he loves me.Kay glanced at me momentarily as I respond in the same tone, “I’ll call you back.” before I hung up and dropped t

    Sharply, I swiped it off before moving my eyes down to check out the stain on my hand. It was really blood. I was bleeding from my nose.Minutes later, we arrived at my gate and I pulled out the cash in my purse in placed it on his outstretched palm before walking inside.Slowly tapping my feet on the floor, to not wake anyone up, I finally arrived at my room door and pulled it open.Swiftly, I entered and dumped my slippers on the floor in a thud and walked straight to my wide mirror to check out my face.Fleetly, I pulled out a tissue and began wiped it thoroughly, then I heard a knock on my door and I quickly hid it behind my back and twisted to look at the person.It was Tania.She looked at me as she arched her eyes and pulled away her hair that was blocking her eyes. “Are you okay?”Was my fear evident? Were my hands shaking? Did she see me with my half bleeding nose?My voice cracked. “Yeah, I’m good.”She nodded. “We’ve been waiting for you. When I heard the front door, I thou

    Seemed like I spent a lot of minutes here that he had to come check on me. My hands were sweaty and my eyes were filled with tears. I staggered back as I dropped the phone back on the bed. She’s pregnant, that’s why he didn’t call. That’s why he has probably not said anything about her.He was looking for the perfect time to tell me. I palmed my face as I let the tears fall. I tried to take a deep breath, but it just seemed like it was difficult.The door was pushed opened as he stepped in, and I spin my back on him, trying to wipe the tears away. It was difficult, so I bit my lips multiple times trying to force it back in.“Baby?” He called out, but I just stood there, bent with my hands relaxing on his desks.He got close as he tried placing his hands on me. I turned and stopped him with my hands.“Don’t.”His eyes flickered as he raised an eyebrow trying to figure it out. “What’s wrong?”“Why don’t you tell me?” I threw back at him that instant.He seemed confused as he shrugged hi

    My ear twitched, hoping to hear what I wanted to hear. I heard him take a deep breath before he opened his mouth to speak. “I didn’t Starr, we just met again. I wasn’t lying when I said we haven’t seen in years.”I didn’t know that I’ve been holding up my breath for the long minute until he spoke out.“Okay.” I gave a curt response. The tension in the room suddenly felt better as it fired down.I stood up from the bed and I walked to the window, before I heard him speak again. “How’s your health? How’re you feeling now? Better?”“Yes. I feel better now.”His voice smooth, and guarded. “Okay.” I heard him speaking to someone, so I just kept quiet and waited till he was done. “Are you busy?”“Yes, please can I call you back?” He requested, and I just gave a sharp positive response and ended the call.••••••Days later, Friday.As I step out of the shower and took my gaze to the wall clock, I realized that I’d spent a long time washing my hair and taking a bath. Seven called that he was

    I was currently in my room. After that outburst from Jude, I wasn’t feeling comfortable anymore, so I told them that I was going back to my room.Firstly, I went to the kitchen, took my food and a glass of milk before going back to my room.After I finished eating, I dropped the tray on my nightstand, and I snuggled u see the warm blankets, feeling the softness of my bed envelop me. I tried taking a nap, but each time, I bounced back to thinking.Hours later, Lizzy came into my room, so I quickly shut my eyes to pretend like I was sleeping and she snuggled close to me as she placed her hands on my face, caressing it till she spoke.“You know you can’t deceive me, right?” I still kept shut cause I wasn’t ready for her scolding. But she chuckled when I still didn’t make a move, then she went for my nose. She held it and I quickly slapped her hands off and we bursted out in laughter.I gasped out as I spoke, “Do you wanna kill me?” I asked with a smile plastered on my face.She laughed b

    I placed my hand on Seven, making him turn his gaze back at me. The room fell awkwardly silent as Kay came closer and asked if I was alright.I responded with a smile as I glanced back at Seven and I saw he was fuming. Clearly, he didn’t like the idea of Kay been this close to me, so he leaned closer and whispered to me that he’d be back. He has to receive a call.He stood up and left, making the atmosphere in the room change. We all started conversing, although Lizzy was a little distant. I knew she wasn’t happy that Seven had to leave because Kay was around.She liked Seven for me. He rounded up our conversation, and it was time for him to leave. So he placed a peck on my cheek the moment Seven walked in.My eyes snapped to the doorway as I saw Seven halt in his step before moving away for Kay to walk out.He didn’t say anything as the nurses came in to inject me with a sleeping dose, so I dozed off, obviously tired from the whole talk.I woke up the next day to see that it was jus

    I flickered my eyes away from her back to Lizzy, and I signaled that she should come closer.Immediately she pulled her chair close to me, she rose, and sank onto the bed, as she arched her brows and rubbed my chin.I took my gaze from her back to the Tania, and then back to Lizzy again. But before I’d speak. Tania spoke up and insisted that she wanted to speak to me first.Ella stood up, strolled closer to the window as she no longer felt comfortable, so she spoke up through gritted teeth “You can see that she’s sick, tell her whatever you want to tell her later.”So I quickly took my gaze back to Tania. She drew closer as she fumbled with her fingers. “No, I want to tell her now.” She persisted.I nodded with my eyes squinting around waiting to hear her talk, “What’s it?”Hesitantly, she started off, “I’m sorry Starr. I doubted you so I misunderstood you. But it wasn’t my intention. Please understand me.”Confusion was etched on my face as I furrowed my brows trying to understand he

I pulled it onto my lap as I tried to pull out my phone.I got the road that had a U turn, so I swiftly turned my hands towards it as I pulled up into the next lane.My fingers grasped my seat belt as I buckled up, before I dialed Seven’s line as my hands continued shaking in fear and my face soaked in premium tears.God! I was going to die today. Tears continued to roll down my face as I tried to breathe out but my chest tightened.When he picked at the second ring, I shout as I tried to explain to him briefly. “Seven, please help me. My car wouldn’t stop, it just doesn’t want to stop.”Hurriedly, I felt his tensed voice. “I don’t understand, what do you mean?” He asked sharply, and I responded immediately, not giving him a chance to speak again.“Please help me, it wouldn’t stop.

    Chapter 59✍️“Tania?” I asked with my eyes wide open in shock. “What’re you doing?”She seemed to be to in surprise as she saw me, but she quickly straightened her shoulders as she tried to calm her nerves, cleared her throat and gave her response, “I’m sorry, I…. Just didn’t know how to face you. I borrowed your car, so I came to drop off your keys.” She replied, stuttering.I furrowed my brows in confusion as I try to get what she meant by that. “You don’t know how to face me, so you thought it was okay to sneak in? Just because of the keys?”I asked, and she glanced at me before taking her eyes off me back to her fidgeting fingers. “No. It’s because I’ve been acting all strange and I misunderstood you, so I’m sorry.” She concluded and took a step, but halted immediately. “Please, just know it wasn’t my intention to hurt you..” she added.I still arched my eyebrows, still not understanding what all this was about. “T, what’s wrong?

    CHAPTER 58✍️I rubbed my temples to calm my nerves before speaking. “It’s fine, Ella. Thank you.” I said to her as I was about going up back to my room. I stopped and turned to look at her again.“On a second thought. Actually, I checked everybody’s room except Tania’s because it’s locked.”I stated, and I saw her open her mouth, probably startled by that piece of news. “You see that? Why would she lock her door?” She commented.And I shrugged off my shoulders and climbed back to my room. I didn’t know what to think. Was Tania truly behind this? But I’ve known her for a long time. She wouldn’t steal, she’s not a thief.I kept on thinking, trying to revolve my head around the entire issue.My phone rang again as I glanced at the screen to know if he was the one calling. He was.So I swiped up to pick as I hear his deep voice. Although it was calm but I knew he was angry, and probably trying to keep it intact.“Have you gotten home?” He asked.I replied hesita
