“Wow! If it ain’t my bride to be!” Jeremy teased as Jenna walked towards him, she rolled her eyes at him as she removed her bag from her shoulder and took her seat in front of him.“I’m only here because I’m obligated to, don’t humor me Jeremy!” She muttered and he chuckled lightly.“Come on wifey, loosen up a bit, we’re getting married soon, you should start opening up!” He said with a sly smile, she opened up her bag as she took out her jotter, pen and tablet.“Jeremy, are you going to talk business or I should leave?!” She replied sternly, her attempt focus on setting her tablet in the table , he waved his hands dismissively at her immediately.“Alright, that’s fine that’s fine!” He muttered.“I knew coming out to meet you today was a bad idea,” she muttered inaudibly as they got to business.****“Three million dollars?!”“What the hell do you intend to use the money for?!” Elizabeth growled to Annabeth over the phone, her scowl deepened turning to Aiden as they heard Annabeth ca
Next day Wednesday Morning….“Congratulations Miss Jenna, I saw the news” Claire said as she walked behind Jenna into her office.Jenna’s lips stretched into a small smile as she nodded stiffly.“There’s no need to congratulate me Claire,”“Did I release any official statement?!” She asked and Claire shook her head.“Did my family release anything?!” She asked again and Claire shook her head again.“Then debunk the rumors that you hear okay, you’re really close to me, you shouldn’t be spreading rumors don’t you think?!” She said with a small smile and Claire nodded immediately.“Absolutely ma,”“Good, so what is my day looking like?!” She asked.“You have an interview with Vineyard Tv by 12pm today, then before that you have a meeting with all heads of departments that would be working with you on the horizon heights project this morning,”“We also need to visit the Next city estate for the inspection of the property just concluded and to official put it on the market by 3pm”“Then y
“Can you imagine?!” “He was even threatening me on top of everything,”“Why don’t you and Nimi just come out to him,” Quinn said gently rocking Hailey as she turned to look at Jenna.Darell and Nimi stepped out few minutes ago, although Jenna didn’t quite understand how their closeness or alliance came to be as they said they wanted to step out together, but at the same time she didn’t think too much about it.“What do you mean come out to him, that’s not even an option, first of all he’ll fire Nimi and his restraint on me will worsen,” she muttered and Quinn nodded slowly.“You’re right,”“So what are you going to do?!”“I’ve been saving up, I’m just gonna stall him and refuse the marriage long enough for Nimi and I to have enough money,”“Then we can come out to him, if he doesn’t approve which he obviously won’t then I’ll move out of his House!”“Nimi and I would start our lives afresh, together!” She added.“And have you discussed this with Nimi?!”“Yes, we talked about it, altho
“Oh my God, Nimi, Jenna” Annabeth called with a wide smile on her face as she opened the door for them to come in.“Oh please come in,” she said as she stepped away from the door, she hugged them one after the other as they walked in and closed the door behind them.“Welcome to my home once again, it’s so nice to have you guys come over,” she said excitedly as they all walked into the living room.“Although Nimi called again to say you guys would be coming, but I still couldn’t help but have second thoughts that you might want to change your mind,” she said and Jenna smiled.“Ofcourse not, we were going to honour your Invitation no matter what, it’s not everytime a client extend a hands of friendship, so our corporation will cherish this one,” Jenna replied and Annabeth smiled.“Ofcourse ofcourse”“Please come have your seat while I set our dinner,” Annabeth said as she led them to the dinning table.“I prepared a three course specially for you guys!” She added and Jenna smiled.“Re
Meanwhile …. “She’s asleep now,” Quinn whispered to Darell as she tucked Hailey in well and turned to him.“You should go to sleep now, Incase she wakes up at night, you would have had enough rest,” She said to him and he nodded slowly as he stepped closer to her.“Stay the night Quinn,” he finally said and she looked up at him shocked.“What?!” She whispered.“What are you talking about!” She said.“I want you to stay with us Quinn, I feel more comfortable when you’re around” he whispered as he stepped close to her and wrapped his hands around her waist.“You don’t want to do this Darell,” she muttered.“Why not?! We both can’t deny what we feel for each other,” he muttered and Quinn shook her head.“Darell, I don’t want to be a rebound for you, you’re just having confused Feelings, it’s just a month after you lost your wife,”“It’s normal for you to feel this way, I don’t want to take advantage of your feelings” she replied.“You’re not taking advantage of anything, I know how I f
7:30 pm …“Are you ready to leave miss,” Nimi asked Jenna as he walked into her room, she looked up at him with a smile.“Where are you taking me to Nimi,” she asked as she put finishing touches to her makeup, he smiled at her effort to look really nice.“It’s a surprise,” he replied, whe stood up from her seat and turned to look at him,“I hope I’m not under dressed?!” She asked and he shook his head with a smile.“You’re perfectly dressed,” he replied as he stepped closer to her and placed a lingering kiss on her lips.“You look stunning,” he said, her smile widened as she placed her hands on his shoulder and dusted imaginary dirt.“You don’t look bad yourself,” she replied, he nodded as he turned slightly and gestured towards the door.“Shall we?!” He asked stretching out his hands to her.“We shall!” She grinned as she placed her hands in his and they walked out of her room.Just as they got to the passage they heard footsteps and they let go of each other immediately and Jenna st
“Awww, this is so beautiful,” Jenna gushed greeted by the beautiful and perfectly serene sight in front of her as they she walked into the small garden Nimi led her into.“Sorry it’s small, I still had to make it extra special for you,” Nimi said as he stood behind her and tucked his hands in his pocket.“Considering the whole social media buzz about you and Jeremy, it’s not ideal to go out for dinner at a restaurant,”“We don’t want this flying out and Sir Franco finding out like that,”“It’s more private here, I made sure of that,” he added, a small smile crossed her lips as she walked further into the garden and towards the area Nimi had specially decorated for them.The garden was aglow with the warm, soft light of fairy lights strung across the trees, casting a magical atmosphere. In the center of the garden, a table was set for two, adorned with a crisp white tablecloth, delicate china set, and glistening silverware. The scent of freshly picked flowers filled the air, their vi
“Oh my God!” Jenna gasped in horror, just as they arrived Annabeth’s house, Annabeth was just been pushed out on a stretcher, her skin pale white and her body stone cold.Nimi and Jenna stepped out of the car immediately and rushed towards the doctor.“Is she dead?!” Nimi asked immediately.“Probably, we can still feel a little pulse, but it’s a 90/10 percent chance that she survives this,” he answered. Nimi stepped back slowly stunned at what he had just heard, Jenna slowly reached out and held his arms tightly as tears began to flow from her eyes.“You remember you said you have an Aunt whose name was Annabeth and you just grew up to not see her around anymore?!” Nimi asked Jenna as they both stood outside of her house staring at the building.Jenna nodded slowly as she tore her gaze off of the building and turned to him.“Don’t tell me it’s what I’m thinking,” she muttered immediately, he nodded slowly as he met her gaze.“Annabeth was your Aunt!” He replied and tears began to fa
