VIDA CLIFFORD
I can't say things were going great before Kingston brought a marriage proposal.I'm Vida ,a mistress daughter,the bad egg of the family,the home wrecker's daughter and many more.Any bad name you can think of .But Kingston Ashford had to make things worst for me all because he is rich ,to hell if he is a damn CEO.I will not marry my enemy.
"No Dad ,I will not marry Kingston Ashford"I yelled
"Be useful for the first time in your life Vida.We raised you after your mistress of a mother abandoned you and we asked a favour from you and you are yelling.You are useless"My step mother Lucy spat angrily
"Let your daughter me useful and marry him okay"I replied back
"Don't you dare talk back you filthy tramp "She said and slapped me .
*That's how it is , that's how it has always been.I'm the outcast .At some point in my life ,I thought things could change.I thought I could live a good life.That my future will be bright.But the only hope I had hurt me.Kingston Ashford,he hurt me.Now he wants to marry me ? To make my life a living hell or what..
I hate him.I wish he never came into my life.He broke me.
I'm Vida Clifford.
đź’«đź’«đź’«đź’«đź’«đź’«đź’«KINGSTON ASHFORDI am sure having a lovely day, can't wait to have my Vida in my arms.My precious Vida.She looked so innocent,I saw her as a girl who was treated badly by her family but all that was a lie.Everything about her were lies.I was hurt .I lost a lot because of her.Because of one girl ,Vida.I loved her but what did she do ,she hurt my pride.Well I will make her pay .I will make that manipulating bitch pay.
"Zack ,talk to Hector Clifford,tell him that the wedding is tomorrow and I don't care how he will do it.Vida will become Mrs Vida Kingston Ashford tomorrow"I said to my personal assistant Zack.
"Yes ,Sir Kingston should the public know about your wedding?"Zack asked
"Yes,everyone should...."I got interrupted by my secretary Nina who entered my office without asking for my permission.I will forgive her for that
"Sir Mr.Dylan is here"Nina said
"Let him in,Zack do what I asked you to do"I said as Dylan walked in.Zack greeted him and left.
"Hey man,you still dealing with Vida"Dylan asked
"I can't just let her go Dylan,she almost broke our friendship.She manipulated me.Taking her freedom and dignity will hurt her the most Dylan and that's what I'm going to do to her"I replied
"Just be careful,you may just fall in love with her again"Dylan said
"Quit the love talk.I hate her okay.I have a wedding to prepare for"I said trying to block the memories .
Everything that happened that day.Nina came into my office again.
"Sir you seemed lost earlier and if you want someone to talk to I am always here to listen"She said caressing my shoulders.Well Nina has been working for me for two years now and if not for the good work she has being doing I would have fired her.She always use every opportunity to try and get close to me.Is obvious she likes me.But they are all sluts just like Vida and that's why I need to marry Vida,to make her pay for manipulating me.
"Get out Nina"I said
"Sir Kingston ,I can help you relieve your stress...."She said again and tried touching my face ,the glare I gave her made her reconsider.
"Leave my office Nina"I said coldly
I am Kingston Ashford
đź’…đź’…đź’…đź’…đź’…đź’…
VIDA"Dad you can't do this ,I am not getting married tomorrow okay and not to Kingston Ashford.Don't you understand,he hurt me ,I am your daughter.You can't just sell me off"I said"Vida ,I have no time for this ,you may try to run away so I'm locking you up in your room till tomorrow morning and I have called professionals to help you will
your wedding dress,your make up and all tomorrow.I gained a lot of money from this marriage so don't act foolishly"Dad said and left my room.Locking me up.Has Kingston not had enough,he embarrassed me ,he hurt me,he hurt my pride what more does he want?
My phone rang and I checked the caller and it was an unknown number.I answered the call.
"Hello who is this?"I asked
"My future wife,I just wanted to check on you.I can't wait to be your husband my love"He said and I knew who it was ,it was Kingston.I quickly hung up.
This is not happening.I can't marry Kingston.I have to find a way to escape and I my eyes unconsciously averted to the window.No I will end up dead for sure,its way too high.I can say I don't want to marry him at the church tomorrow and we will not marry then.Or I can talk to Cassandra and convince her to take my place.Yes Cassandra is the best option.
đź’…đź’…đź’…đź’…đź’…đź’…đź’…đź’…đź’…đź’…
I made plans with Cassandra after she agreed to take my place ,am not surprised,Kingston is every lady's dream well not me ,I'm aware he is a devil in disguise.On our way to the church on the day of my wedding.I and Cassandra went to the restroom close to the church together so we can switch places and of course Dad made sure he had guards following me around.I and Cassandra switched places and Cassandra wore my veil and Cassandra went to the guards alone and told them the bride's maid will meet her at the church.I got the opportunity I wanted and ran to Cassandra's place to hide .I could imagine Kingston's shock expression when he finds out I outsmarted him .I got a call from Cassandra and I quickly answered the call ,hoping to hear the good news about the marriage that I escaped from."Be in the church in 5 minutes or else Cassandra will die"I heard a cold angry voice which sent shivers down my spine.
Kingston will surely kill me if I go back there.He will only make me suffer.After what happened between us I can't marry him.But what about Cassandra.

KINGSTON ASHFORDHow dare Vida trick me,how dare her do this.I always knew she was nothing but a manipulating bitch."Hector,if your daughter is not here in the next five minutes I will make you pay"I said to Vida's father."Kingston it has not gotten to this,Vida is still a child.She will be here soon"He replied and leftI was fuming with anger.I turned my gaze to Cassandra and held her arm tightly so it could hurt her."If your friend do not show up here you are dead""Sir,it hurts"She said trying to wiggle out of my grip.She is just like Vida , nothing but a slut."Kingston control yourself"Dylan said and I left herAbout how I found out I was deceived was when Vida's father told me that ,they stopped at a restroom close to the church.I know how Vida's mind works .I had to wait outside the church and immediately the car arrived ,she worked in smiling and I knew something was off ,I could see her smile through the veil and Vida is not happy about the wedding ,when she got to where
KINGSTONDamn!!! After all the while I could still be manipulated by her.It was obvious it was a trap.She made me unzip her dress to make me loose control.I will not give her the satisfaction she wants.She just wants to manipulate me ,am sure of that.My phone rang and it turned out to be my Mum.How do I deal with this.I answered the call and prepared myself for her scolding."Kingston Ashford how dare get married without telling us.I had to see the news on the internet that my son was married.And also found out you married Vida.I always wanted her for you but all of a sudden you claimed you hated your best friend and now she's your wife?"Mum ranted"Mum I wanted to surprise you and Dad and did not want to stress you by making you fly over here just for a wedding.I care about you a lot Mum and I want to give you grand kids"I said sweetly."Kingston don't you dare use that tone on me.I know you,you can't hate someone and marry the person.Who knows if you forced her to marry you"Mum sai
Still on FLASH BACKVIDAThe door opened and it was Dylan ,Dylan rushed to where Caleb was and pulled him off me .He and Caleb fought while I quickly picked my dress and wore it.Dylan delt with Caleb and I was afraid he was going to kill Caleb.I couldn't let that happen so I rush to where Dylan was and wrapped my hands around him."Stop it please .You are going to kill him.Stop it Dylan"I said hugging him"I'm sorry .Did he hurt you ?"He asked checking my body for marks"Thank you for saving me"I said crying in his arms.What hurts most was the one who did this was Kingston,my best friend.The one I rejected Dylan for.He hurt me and called me a liar.He wanted Caleb to rape his best friend.He betrayed me.I will never forgive him for what he did.END OF FLASHBACKI got out of the shower and picked the towel up and used it to cover my body up.I made use of the lotion I found and also wore a night dress I found in the closet.I guess this is my room now.I called Cassandra to know how
KINGSTONThe door opened and Nina quickly stood well and arranged her blouse.It turned out to be my Mum.Mum looked at Nina for a while before she turned her gaze to me.This time she was glaring at me."Kingston I took an early flight just so I can congratulate you on your marriage"Mum said"Good day Ma"Nina said and mum scoffed."I got an information that my son showed up at his office the next day after his wedding.You are supposed to be with your wife Kingston,your wife not some secretary.So Miss employee as you can see am having a conversation with my son , did your brains not tell you to get out.That's if you have any "Mum said"Sorry ma'am "Nina said and quickly left.I know am in deep shit.It's obvious Mum saw what happened .Mum never liked Nina.She said Nina is just a wanna be Kim Kardashian and that she's an opportunist."I see you were having an interesting office time with Miss opportunist or should I say wanna be Kim Kardashian.I don't know what's keeping you from sacking h
VIDA When I removed the robe ,I realized that Kingston did not give me shorts to wear .I'm sure he will not let me leave this room.I'm I supposed to wear this without pants or shorts?I wore his t-shirt.And it smells like Kingston.It smells good .I opened the door of the washroom and saw Kingston with his laptop.I guess he is working."Kingston"I called and he turned ,his gaze ran through my body.And his gaze fell on my chest .Then his gaze went to my thighs.Those cold blue eyes."I need short"I said looking down.It was as if he expected me to come back to get it.He picked a short from the bed that I did noticed was there and threw it at me .I caught it and went back in to the washroom and wore it before leaving the washroom .I went to lay at the far end of the bed.Far away from Kingston.Who knows what is going through that mind of his.Holding a pillow against my chest ,I slept off.I woke up the next morning and tried getting up from the bed but was pulled back and it turned out t
AUTHORESS POV"Kingston please,you are hurting me"Vida's voice was teary .Her wrist was beginning to redden as his grip tightened.His weight pinning her slender form to the cold hard wall was almost too painful to endure but struggling now could bring harmful results.Dangerous ones even.He left her waist to and held her face trying to kiss her making the towel she wrapped around herself fall , leaving her stack naked in front of Kingston.The pained worsened as his grip tightened even more.He held her waist with his other hand and tried kissing her again while she turned her face else where .She was trying to get out of his grip but the more she tried,the more he got more angry.Vida knew she had to do something.He had never been this out of control before.His grip this tight will definitely leave a bruise ,tighter would break her bones."K-b , leave me alone"She pushed him back with her free hand and finally he go off her.Vida quickly ran to the washroom locking the door.Rubbing her
KINGSTON"That's not true Dylan .You are lying"I yelled"Haven't you noticed the distance between I and Vida recently .And the reason is because I know about her secret.That she's a liar and that she's manipulating you.She tricked us just to be popular.Even people tagged you as her boyfriend and it made her popular"He said"Then Caleb ,she paid Caleb to harass her so you can save her.It was all a lie so she can look pitiful in front of you.You are Kingston Ashford and a girl fooled you.One girl fooled us "Dylan yelled."No ,no .I don't believe you"I said "Vida is a manipulating bitch...""Let's call Caleb and prove it to me"I said and I really hoped Dylan was lying.Dylan collected his phone from my hand and dailed Caleb's number and Caleb answered."Caleb did Vida pay you to harass her so Kingston will save her?"Dylan asked"Yes ,she did that to get Kingston's attention"Caleb said and Dylan ended the call."This can't be happening?"I yelled and I turned to Dylan"Let's make her pay
VIDA I woke up beside Kingston.Well we slept side by side like a couple.I enjoyed it ,the way he cuddled me and all .I guess I will just forget about what happened in the past.Well it's a truce. I prepared for the party.Kingston hired beauticians to get me ready.I'm so beautiful ,the left and I nervously worked outside to see Kingston waiting for me looking so handsome.He seemed shocked to see me. "What do you think?"I asked still nervous "You are gorgeous.My wife is so beautiful.All eyes will be on you tonight"He said and I smiled shyly. "What's the purpose of this occasion?"I asked "I'm launching a new product"He simply replied and took my hand in his as we walked out. KINGSTONWe got to the party as the press took pictures of I and Vida.I introduced Vida to them. Well Vida really looked beautiful tonight.She's gorgeous,well she's my wife what do you expect "Mr Charles Gregor meet my wife Mrs Vida Kingston Ashford,Vida meet Charles"I said and he held Vida's hand before brin
KINGSTONI never imagined that I will love someone this much.Someone to make me loose so much control . Someone I can't get enough of.I never thought I will have a wonderful marriage because I did not care about love . I always thought if I was going to get married , it will be because of my mum . It will be because she forced me . But then I fell in love with Vida . I think marrying Vida is the best decision I have ever made in my life even if it was a force marriage , it gave me the family I have today . If only Dylan had not chose the wrong path , if only he understood that not everything is done by force . I got to understand that when Vida left the country and Cassandra told me not to go after her . I did not go after her , I guess she needed space and time . I am happy I have reached this point in my life and all I want to do is make my family happy . EIGHTEEN YEARS LATERVIDAIt's hard handling three children , two boys at that and a girl . And they are
KINGSTONI smiled as Vida walked in, in a sexy lace white lingerie."Sexy .I love it ,you look ready for me"I saidWe just arrived and mum got us a house here,she said we could come visit next time.And we have all the privacy we need .I will commend her on that.I'm already thinking about the silly things I will do to Vida like having sex with her on the kitchen counter,on the couch,like this is a wonderful honeymoon.And little rascal is not here to disturb us."Quit the stares"Vida said"Well I can't help it.You are exceptionally sexy tonight"I replied and she joined me on the bedI drew her close to me and I kissed her.I made her sit on my lap as we kissed.VIDAHe pulled me close to him and we kissed.I was on his laps right now and the kiss was rough and hunger filled and I tried to keep up with him as he explored my mouth.He loosed the lingerie I had on leaving me naked .I ran my hands to his bare back and his hand cupped my breast as he trailed kisses down to in between my breast.
KINGSTON I found Isabel ,Vida's mother and I also found out that she signed a document with Hector Clifford,Vida's Dad to stay away from Vida in order for her to have a good life .I spoke with Hector and made a deal with him.He will see his son if he gets rid of whatever stupid document Vida's mother signed years ago and I also guaranteed him a partnership with my company.So here we are now. Well my surprise for how is not over and you know I planned to handle the little rascal I looked at the little rascal Kaven who is asleep in mum's arms ,I traced Vida's eyes and it was on her mother. "Mum??"I heard her mutter Vida's mother walked to where Vida was "I am so sorry"She said "You abandoned me"Vida said "I watched you from afar,I watched you grow.Hector will not let me go close to you.I'm sorry"Vida's mother said "It was not her fault Vida.Just forget about the past,I have one more surprise for you"I said "It's okay mum"Vida said and Vida's mum quickly hugged her.The woman was
VIDAI collected the baby from Dad,I mean Kingston's father but I call him Dad now.They are my family now with Ma'am Verna who I call my Mum , she's like a mother to me anyways.The door opened and Mum walked in."Hey mum"Kingston said"Kingston,my baby boy"Mum said and rushed to where Kingston was hugging him."You guys should stop acting like I was in a serious coma"Kingston said"Shut up okay .We were all worried about you"I said"Have you seen your son ? He is so adorable.He is just like you when you were younger"Mum said and I went to where Kingston was with the baby in my arms."Don't you think the doctor should check on Kingston"Dad said"Then go and get the doctor then , I am staying with my son"Mum said"Kingston meet Kaven Ashford.Kaven your father is awake now"I said happily as Kingston touched Kaven's hand."It's weird that I am a father now and his hand is so little"Kingston said"You have a lot of diapers to change"I said"I'm too hot for that"Kingston replied and Mum hit
VIDAI opened my eyes as antiseptic smell hit me.An intravenous fluid was beside me and my eyes trailed the tube which was attached to a needle on my hand and on my other hand was a cast.It is the hand I got shot.Wait Kingston.The door opened and Ma'am Verna walked in with a baby .Wait a baby."Vida dear,you are finally awake"Ma' am Verna said"Where is Kingston.How is he ?"I asked"Cool down Vida.I brought your baby "Ma'am Verna saidI was to occupied with Ma'am Verna to even notice Kingston father."You are trying to avoid my question.Where is Kingston"I asked"He is still in the ICU.He is unconscious but don't worry he will be fine"Mum said"What!! Let me go and see him"I said and tried getting up but they held me."Breathe Vida.The doctor said you need rest.Just stay with your baby"Ma'am Verna said and I sighed"What if something happens to him.This is all my fault"I said"Vida it's not your fault and when Kingston regain consciousness you need to be healthy"Mr Adrian, Kingston's
KINGSTONZack informed me that they have my son with him now.He also sent more men to help me.I just hope I will be able to save Vida.Who knows what Dylan is doing to her ,I don't think Vida is aware that our son is with me . Well there is no need spending time with Dylan since our son is with me now.Is time to get Vida back.I will fix everything,I will fix my mistakes and this includes cheating on Vida and trusting Dylan and not asking Vida to explain herself years ago and I am sure the pictures and videos are not the way it seems to be just like years ago.It is Dylan trying to mess with me again and I won't allow it. won't let Dylan destroy my family.I arrived just in time to see Dylan and Vida.I thought all this will end well.That I can convince Dylan to let Vida go but then Vida untied the ropes and approached me but Dylan shot her.He shot Vida's arm.No , nothing should happen to herI shot Dylan on his left leg and ran to where Vida was ."Vida are you okay"I said"Kingston ,D
VIDAI woke up early and had my bath,brush my teeth,my morning routine.I wrapped the towel I found in the washroom around my body and came out .I met Dylan still in the room."You will be wearing this love"He said giving me a blue bumper short and also a transparent crop top."Dylan do I look like a slut to you?I can't wear these"I said"You will do as I say if you don't want to get hurt"He said and walked outHow do I get out of here.Dylan is sick,I can't stay here anymoreI wore the clothes ,I had no choice.I just want my son back.The door opened and Dylan walked in "I ordered food for us Vida"Dylan said I did what he wanted and we ate together .When we were done he pulled me and made me sit on his lap."I called my doctor and he said it is fine to have sex with you "He said and kissed my neck"Is everything about sex to you?"I asked"Don't give me that bullshit Vida "He said forcefully kissing me as I tried to wriggle out of his grip and when I succeeded "Stop ruining the momen
VIDADylan's hand moved to my waist and I held his hand."Dylan wait"I said breathing heavilyI was so nervous.I was going to cheat on Kingston."What ,Vida don't you want your son"Dylan said.He is drunk and I have to trade carefully not to upset him."I do but I'm still married to Kingston.It looks like I'm cheating"I said"He cheated on you before with Nina okay.So don't upset me "He said before kissing me harshly .I turned my face away and pushed him off me and he got angry."What ,I can't touch you.But Kingston can.You even got pregnant for that bastard ,you let him give you love bites but you won't let me"He yelled and dragged me . Kissing me again, holding my hands tightly.I turned away from him as I tried getting out of his grip."What ????You allowed Kingston touch you but not me?You are mine now Vida.What's so precious about your body anyways "Dylan said and tore the red gown."Dylan wait!!!!!"I said and succeeded in removing my hand from his grip .His hand went to my panties
EPISODE 23KINGSTONI can't just sit here and watch her just go.Who knows what Dylan will doZack walked in"Sir.From the tracker Vida is in a different location from where we found Dylan days ago.I spoke with someone there who turned out to be a nanny ,Dylan hired.She is with your son and Ma'am Vida is with Dylan in a different location"Zack said"Wait is Dylan planning to give my baby up for adoption.Vida is not safe with Dylan.I need to get Vida "I said"You can't do that sir.If you get your wife ,Dylan will be alerted and will take your son.Ma'am Vida wants nothing but her son .We need to get your child first before Ma'am Vida"Zack said which got me thinking.When Vida came back home all she did was think of her son.Kaven .I like the name for him.It suits him perfectly.I will get my son back.I feel bad .I did not even get to meet child before Dylan took him away.I wonder how he looks like.My mum is not even aware that Vida gave birth.She was not even aware that she was even pregna
