FINDING TRUE LOVE(Beyond Beauty) CHAPTER 69
Yesterday went quickly as I was all up doing nothing but thinking. I didn’t bother to call Seven cause we were going to see today. Tania’s birthday party is today.Since I’d already promised Chris, I assisted him in decorating his house cause he said he wanted to throw her a surprise there, and the after party would commence afterwards.When I left his place after the arrangement, I went straight to Kay’s house. But he wasn’t around, so he asked me to go in and wait for him.But I didn’t go upstairs, I just laid on the widest couch and slept off after making sure that I’d put my phone on silent.I hadn’t realized how long I slept till I felt a touch on my cheek, and I jolted out of my sleep.Rushing to the other side of the couch and almost falling to the ground, I looked up and saw Kay with a huge smile on his face as he bursted out laughing.“You almost fell. I thought you were very brave. Were you that scared?” He questioned with a huge grin on his face and bursted out laughing.Hu

CHAPTER ONE ✍️Starr’s POV“Trust me Starr, I’m your best friend and I always want the best for you, I wouldn’t lie or accuse Charles of something that’s not true. So please believe me when I say he’s a freaking liar and a cheat.”“I saw him this afternoon in Nirvana lounge with a beautiful, average height, light-skin lady, and they looked so happy like people in love. Nirvana lounge, that rang a bell in my head. That’s the hotel me and him always stayed whenever he’s around.“And before you say anything, that didn’t look like a business deal or friendship date”. She added trying to sound convincing.I hung up abruptly, and sat quickly on my bed thinking about what lizzy just spurted. I didn’t want to believe “Could she be telling the truth? No, no, Starr stop, don’t do this,” I murmured as I welcomed denial.Charles would never hurt me. And what the hell would he be even doing in Dubai? I mean, he isn’t back from Canada, where he went on an important business trip for months now.

CHAPTER 2✍️As the elevator came to a halt, I stepped out and returned the keycard to the receptionist. I sprinted out of the building and flagged down a taxi. The drive was cold and silent, and my vision blurred from excessive crying.Getting to my destination, I sat in a bar with three bottles of pure alcohol, drowning in my sorrows. I knew that was exactly what I needed at that moment. As I struggled to regain control of my emotions, memories of what I had witnessed came flooding back.The memory of her stunning beauty lingered, and I couldn’t help but compare myself to her. She was a version of perfection, stunningly beautiful, and in that moment, I knew I would never measure up to her. Even in a fairy dress, he’d never love someone like me. He needed someone beautiful, model looking, confident, and someone who’d give him a Child, I was none of them.I remembered how they looked into each other eyes with burning love passion, and it dawned on me. “Never in a million year

CHAPTER 3✍️ I woke up in an unfamiliar place; the ceiling was far different from the ones in my room. “Where the hell am I?” I asked myself. I tried getting up, and that was when I saw the bed I was lying on. “I’m in a freaking hospital.” The door creaked. I looked up to see what was wrong, and I saw Lizzy walk in with a man that looked like, he’s in his late forties and yes, he was with a stethoscope on his neck. “Yeah, how great. Lizzy brought me to a fucking hospital.” “Hey, Starr, right? How’re you feeling?” the doctor asked, his voice gentle. I hesitantly answered, “I feel good doctor,” please can you give me and my friend a moment together? It’s really urgent. I need to speak with her. The doctor nodded sympathetically. “Of course, I’ll give you some privacy. But just for a minute, okay?” As soon as the doctor left, I turned to Lizzy, my voice low and urgent. “Why the hell did you bring me to a hospital, Lizzy? You know how much I hate hospitals, it smells, It

Chapter 4✍️“Always make sure you sleep well, rest early, and stay away from alcohol, okay? And also stay hydrated.” He added.I nodded slightly, still gazing out the window. Lizzy squeezed my hand reassuring.“We’ll get through this, Starr, like we always do, okay? Lizzy consoled me. Yes.” I answered.The doctor smiled softly, warmly. “You’ll need to come back for a follow-up appointment in two weeks’ time. We’ll monitor your condition and adjust your medication as needed.”I turned back to face him, forcing a weak smile. “Okay, doctor. Thank you.”After an emotionally draining day, I collapsed onto the bed as soon as we got home, exhausted, took over. Lizzy let me sleep, knowing I needed to recharge.Hours later, I woke up feeling a bit more refreshed. Lizzy was sitting in the living room, her eyes fixed on me as I walked in.“Hey, how are you feeling?” She asked, concern etched on her face.I shrugged, taking a seat beside her. “Better, thanks.”Lizzy nodd

Chapter 5✍️“Where are my freaking clothes?” I shouted at the top of my voice. The door swung open, and someone walked in. I looked up and my eyes widened in horror. It was the same guy I met at the club! “What was his name again?” I thought to myself, panic setting in. “I don’t even remember and I don’t care!!!”“No, no, no, this can’t be happening, I exclaimed, my voice and hands trembling. “W-what am I doing in your… your house?” I stuttered, trying to process the situation. “Who brought me here?” I demanded, my anger rising.The guy’s expression remained calm, but I could see a sense of amusement dancing in his eyes.“You don’t remember me, do you?” He asked, his voice low but smooth.I shook my head, feeling a mix of embarrassment and frustration. “No, I…I don’t, and funny enough, I don’t care. The only thing I wish to know is, Why the hell am I in your fucking bed?” That’s all I want to know.I tilted my head sideways, trying to calm my frazzled nerves do

Chapter 6✍️The cool breeze enveloped me as I stepped off the plane in France. I joined the stream of passengers moving towards the baggage claim, the sound of luggage wheels and chatters filling the air. I felt a thrill of happiness knowing I was away and I wanted to start all over, but I still had thoughts of that suspicious phone call. I don’t frolic around with any man, so who could that be? I mean, I would have easily said Charles’s wife, but they were long gone and I haven’t spoken to him since our last encounter at the airport, so definitely it’s not here, then who? I thought to myself with a blank expression on my face. I rolled my luggages to a taxi, gave the driver my destination and few minutes later, I stood at the front of a beautiful tall building.This was it, my new home. I smiled and stepped inside. The concierge greeted me warmly and handed me the keys to my apartment. I thanked her and made my way upstairs, unlocking the door and stepping inside

CHAPTER 7✍️Starr’s POV I and Mr. Jenkins were still conversing, but we were nearly finished.“I like that.” He quickly reached for his landline and called someone to come in and after a few minutes, a beautiful brunette lady came in and he told her to take me to my office.We got outside, and she complimented me. “Hey, I’m Racheal, but you can call me ray. I wouldn’t mind, I mean cause my friends call me that.” She stuttered, and God! You’re so beautiful,” she added.I blushed immediately, that rolled out of her mouth. “Thank you Racheal, you look beautiful too,” I complimented her too, and she slightly tapped my arm. “Oh, please, don’t flatter me.”We got a cabin, and we stopped there. She opened the door and told me this was my space, while hers was just beside mine, and if I ever needed anything, I shouldn’t hesitate to call her. And I responded, “ Okay, Rachael, thank you.”After a long stressful day at work, I got home, had my shower, and headed outside t

Immediately the door shut, Lizzy spoke up.“Where have you been since morning? We’ve been calling you.”I stared at her briefly before speaking, swaying the topic off and introducing another. “Why aren’t you at work? You’re supposed to be out.”She rolled her eyes and slumped on the couch with her legs crossed. “Well, I called in sick.”My mouth hung open as I nodded my head and took a step forward to approach the stairs. “Starr, I asked you, where did you go?”Halting on my steps, I turned back to look at her before responding. “I went to the hospital.” And resumed my steps.She bulged out her eyes and she shoot up, moving to the stairs to reach me. “Are you okay? It’s not yet your time for your checkup, so why did you go to the hospital?”We had already gotten to my room, and I was pulling up my top to take it out.Still silent, I didn’t know how to put it, but as I opened my mouth to speak, tears spilled from my eyes and I swiped it out immediately.She saw how it was playing out,

When he took his eyes away from the sheet and looked at me, I hastily heaved out my sigh and focused at him.“Starr, you’re stressing yourself out.” He began, “it’s a lot of stress. Your hormones shows that you’re gagged with stress.”I impatiently waited for him to continue. “They put you on monthly pills to manage your illness and you, so that you can have space to live freely like a young woman without constantly looking over your shoulders and considering your genetic predisposition it’s bad. But you’re not helping. I sighed out as he rubbed his chin and continued.“I had always emphasized that adequate rest is compulsory. Not for you to debate but to be seen as an order cause you sure have a hormonal imbalance in case you’ve forgotten.” He stopped briefly and continued.“But you don’t take breaks and it isn’t good for you right now.” I swallowed the lump that I’d formed immediately.“Hence, the nose bleeding.” He leaned back and clasp his hands together, “I last told you that you

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
FINDING TRUE LOVE(Beyond Beauty) CHAPTER 64
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
FINDING TRUE LOVE(Beyond Beauty) HIS FIRST LOVE
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
