KEIRA. “Do you wish we did?” He asked and I clicked my eyes open instantly. “No! Of course not!” I snapped, raising my gaze to see his hazel eyes watching me closely.“I ..mean….why will I?” I lowered my voice and chin at the same time, clearing my throat a bit. “You were praising my abs and muscles. I wouldn't be surprised if you had thoughts of me, Bambi?” He murmured with a teasing voice and I looked up to him again, my eyes meeting his intense gaze.Bambi again? I could feel a bit of awkwardness and tension between the both of us. “Have we met before by chance, or…” I exhaled deeply, trying to find the right words to ask him if he remembered me from that night. “Did you know me before I started working ?” I asked, a bit of curiosity in my tone as I lowered my chin. He didn't say a word for a while… “Why would I forget?” He said out of the blue, causing me to lift my gaze to him again. “You were amazing that night.. I could never forget. I always had you at the back of my
KEIRA. George and I flew back to New York the following day without completely staying for the conference. After our breakfast that morning, he went alone to meet some individuals. We had gone back to New York as soon as possible because something urgent came up at his company. Joe came to pick us up at the airport and once he dropped George off at his company, he took me back to the penthouse. Mark was around when I returned. Shouldn't he be attending to the urgency at the company together with George. “You are back, Keira…” He said to me once I stepped in and I let out a bit of a smile. “Yes I am.” I answered with a bit of quizzical expression. “I got the materials for the design.” He announced and I remembered I had told him about the stuff when I was in Europe with George. “Oh right … Thanks.” I shot him a grateful smile. “It is around the corner there” He muttered and pointed to the corner close to the gym door. I could see paintings, artworks, designer vases, flowers and
LIAM.I knew Keira would accept my proposal. Why wouldn't she? She have always had eyes alone for me.I knew it immediately that she just wanted to get back at me for divorcing her.. I knew she seduced my father because there was no way they would have gotten together so quickly. Dad came back to New York same day I divorced Keira.. Even though with a man's instinct, I could tell the desire in Dad's eyes for Keira ths day she claimed he was her boyfriend which is why I would take her back. Nothing is as sweet as my revenge, taking Keira and his company at the same time. Keira had always been gullible. Even when we were married, she had no idea I had been bringing different ladies home despite the fact that she was a housewife. I knew what she wanted right from time, to be shown a hint of importance, some sort of love. Having been abandoned by her mother, she craved it daily.. show her a bit of love or importance and she is all over you. How dare father kick me out of the company. I
GEORGE A notification popped into my phone and anger swell up in my heart. A picture of Keira hugging Liam sent from Mark. I had instructed him to keep an eye on her. I sensed she wanted to use me as revenge plan to Liam and I was fucking right. When she threw herself at me that day, something didn't sit right with me, I felt she wanted to use me as replacement for Liam or revenge plan, I mean she had been busy crying her eyes out and drinking because of him. I didn't mind if she would use me as revenge plan but going back to Liam? Bullshit! She is just one of those ladies! Turns out she had started seeing Liam again. How dare she? How dare them? I never knew Keira was this stupid! I couldn't say why I was so worked up over this, if she is still in love with him then I should probably let her go to him. It's not like there was anything special between us. But I knew Liam wasn't in love with her so why did he seek her back? Perhaps, he is planning something? I let out a scoff. Even
KEIRA. I heaved a deep sigh after receiving that message from Elena. She was fired? (Alright sure.) I typed back. I guess I have to skip some of my duties again. What if George decides to fires me again? He was quite aggressive yesterday. I won't have to spend much time, then I will come back and do what I'm supposed to do. I tried convincing myself. Another notification popped up and it was from Liam this time. (You have to get close to him enough to follow him to the company) He said and I scoffed. I can't believe he actually thought I would comply with this silly request of his. Was that how foolish I seemed to him? I shook my head in disbelief and replied. (Sure, I'm doing my very best to seduce him. He likes me so well so the task would probably be easy right?) I replied and heaved a sigh. What a coward..I sauntered upstairs and took my shower quickly before hurrying off to see Elena..Once I stepped into the coffee shop, I found her drinking. She had requested for beer. Th
KEIRA. I went back to the penthouse and began my interior designing work, I wanted to be focused on it because I didn't want keep thinking about what Amanda said or the fact that my own mother abandoned me in my teenage years after Dad died. Those words she said to me everyday and the last day she left me was exactly what Amanda said to me. ‘'I’m worthless like my father' She said it to me everyday. I sucked in a sharp breath trying to focus on the curtains I was arranging. I didn't even know time had passed so much. The door suddenly creaked open and George came in. I had forgotten I hadn't prepared dinner for him yet. I swallowed hard and greeted him. “Good evening, sir”I drew my attention back to what I was doing after greeting him. I waited for a while but he didn't respond either. Is he suddenly being cold because he thinks I'm worthless too? They all act very kind at first, silly me to always get swayed by their kindness. A sharp sting pierced my heart and tears pricked a
KEIRA. The next day came by so quickly and I didn't realize I had slept so much like a baby! I woke up around 8:00 whereas I'm supposed to wake up early to make breakfast for George. I stretched out my hands, I stood up and began strolling downstairs. My gaze locked with Mark's once I stepped down. “Good morning,Sir” I greeted.“Good morning, Keira..” he replied. “Boss asked me to hand over this files to you” He stated, reaching his hands to me. The discussion we had last night flashed over my memory and I took the files from him. “Okay. Thank you.” I responded. “Boss left early for a business trip. He told me to let you know that you didn't have to work so hard for the interior designing Job. We could hire each professional in their field to help you out” He remarked and I sighed. Then why am I here? I was paid a huge amount for this job, why am I getting another help? Oh, Keira, when are ever going to change, my inner voice countered. I was literally getting the help I need
KEIRA. “Elena, I told you I didn't want to wear this short Skirt!” I yelled, pulling the skirts down but Elena had already crashed into the dance floor without wasting time. A part of me has regrets about following her here but the deed has been done. She forced me to wear a mesh revealing top and a leather short skirt with boots. It was almost the same with her outfit. I didn't want anyone staring at me like a whore. The club was buzzing with energy. The music was loud and the DJ was seamlessly blending different songs to keep the crowd moving. The lights were flashing and changing colors, creating a lively atmosphere.People were in the dance floor, lost in the beat. Most of the ladies were pressing their bodies against guys, rocking and twerking on their members. I heaved a deep sigh, I'm not sure if I was in for such. The loud music was really disturbing my ear, I could have been having a good night rest,I hissed. I walked over to the bar side of the club and sat down. I wou
