Anthony arrived at the club and saw how lively it was. He smiled when he saw his friends walking towards him.
"Hey bro this place sure lives up to its reputation as one of the best clubs with sexy women". Fred twitched his lips and said, Buh when he saw his girlfriend Anita expression, his face froze in fear. He gulped his saliva and held Anita's hand saying, "babe although this club is filled with sexy ladies, you are more beautiful and sexier than them, trust me". " Don't trust him sweetheart, he always says this when he sees ladies, like serious Anita I really don't know what you see in this douchebag". Eric laughed and said.. Fred rolled his eyes, hugged Anita tight and pouted his lips at Eric and said" dude don't spoil my babe's mind. Anita laughed at their banter and replied "yeah I know you loved me the most". Kate twitched her lips and giggled saying "babe ya no fun". Eric Anderson who is two minutes older than Fred Anderson are twins. Eric Anderson the CEO of Anderson enterprise is a cold and aloof man, who is always serious with work. He's also one of the leaders of black scorpion who was cruel just like Kent.. He was so handsome that girls threw themself at his feet, but he was faithful and loved his childhood lover Kate. Whereas Fred is the playboy type who has no business in his family company, when he was young his dream was to open a game company because he loves gaming a lot, so he decided to study programming to fulfill his dream which is now one of the biggest companies in the country. He is always seen with different girls but unfortunately he was tamed by Anita, his friend whom he met at school. So Kent, Anthony, Fred, Eric and Kate are childhood friends. Anthony saw how lively the club was, so he canceled the private room he booked earlier. They walked to a table and sat down before calling the waiters to take their order while chatting happily. "Do you think Kent will agree to this arranged marriage". Fred sipped his drink and asked. They sighed, because they really didn't know the answer. Kent was the stubborn type that paid no attention to anybody except his family and closed one's. Eric murmured and said " I'm sure he will agree, Aunty and uncle are already worried about him. Anthony laughed when he remembered something" do you know Aunty called and asked me if Kent was a gay, I was shocked by that question that I remained speechless, I had to convince her that we would talk to Kent about it". "Yeah right besides his fiance's mother is a very close friend of his mother, and auntie loves her a lot". Kate said. Fred sipped his drink and said "I hope this works between them". They stopped talking When they noticed Kent standing beside them with a serious face. they were speechless, because they didn't notice his presence.... Awkwardly coughing Anita turned and asked him when he got there. Kent ignored their stares and sat down, he took a glass cup and poured himself some whiskey and answered nonchalantly "when you guys were talking about me". " I will just accept the marriage besides I trust my mother's judgment, and I really don't want to worry them especially my grandparents". Kent sipped his drink and said They were surprised with his answer. "Exactly bro". Kelvin laughed and joined them. Kate laughed and asked. "When did you get here" Kelvin pouted his lips in annoyance and said in a sulking manner "you guys are clearly enjoying yourself, and didn't invite me. If I had not trailed my brother I wouldn't have known". When Kent heard this he narrowed his eyes, and asked in a dangerous tone. "You said what?". Understanding his brother's voice he cower away and sat in between Anthony and Eric for safety. When they saw that, they all laugh Anthony said"actually we did not invite you because we didn't remember ". Kelvin sighed in relief but his hope was dashed when he heard the next sentence" we simply forgot your existence ". Anthony laughed and said " Ouch I just feel like I've been poured a bucket of cold". Kelvin dramatically wiped his faked tears. Everybody hissed in an exaggerated manner and ignored him. ........ Stopping her car at the entrance of the club,August and Lisa got down from the car and headed straight to the club. When they got there, it was so noisy that August twitched her lips and furrowed her brows in annoyance. She turned her head to complain to Lisa about the noise, but when she saw her happy face she decided to endure it. looking around she saw a table close to where a group of people was sitting, she quickly dragged Lisa there and sat down since that spot was hidden. August told the bartender to give her the strongest whiskey, because she really feels like drinking, to forget everything that's happening right now. Lisa looked at her and said. "You get drunk easily, order something less". August pouted her lips and blink her eyes in a cute way and replied. "You are here to protect me, that's why I need to get high". Lisa replied mercilessly. "No". When she saw her tactics didn't work she went close to Lisa, held her hand and started shaking it like a baby. When she saw Lisa's face she started whining and acting like a spoiled kid. "please Lisa I really want to drink, I strongly need it besides I don't drink always its once a while. Lisa laughed and conceded defeat, she can't really say no to that cute face, it's just so adorable. August squealed like a child when she finally persuaded Lisa. Lisa sighed and turned to the bartender to order her drink but noticed his eyes was fixed on August who was still acting cute, she laughed and touched the bartender, who was embarrassed being caught by Lisa, he blushed a little and cleared his throat and asked in a professional manner "your order ma'am". "uhmmm just get me a cocktail and my name is Lisa not ma'am, I feel kinda old when you said that". The bartender laughed and said "ok Lisa, I will get your orders, right now". When he left there he touched his face and said in a dreamy voice "I just fell in love at first sight, o my gosh they are so cute. Kent was talking to his friends when his attention was diverted by the ladies standing at the entrance. He was attracted to the girl standing at the right side. She was wearing a red dress that hugged her body so tight with a simple necklace on her neck and an ankle boot, her hair was packed loosely which made her look really cute, and when he saw her facial expression which looked annoyed he chuckled in amusement because she was adorable with that expression. When he noticed she was being stared at by men at the club, his face turned cold, he just felt like taking her home and locking her away from the gazes of these hungry wolves. When he was done analyzing her, he was shocked by his thoughts because this was the first time he acted this way. Anthony and the rest saw Kent staring in one direction, so they all turned and saw two women who were walking close to their table. Kelvin laughed and said jokingly "I guess big bro loves that kind of woman". When Fred turned to his girlfriend Anita he asked. "What happened babe". "I don't really know, but don't you think this girl looks familiar, like I don't know her personally, but I feel like I've seen her somewhere before". "Really? where did you see her because this is our first time seeing her". Kate said Anita looked closely at her table and exclaimed. "I think I know her, she is the Adam’s family daughter and that is her assistant and friend Lisa Grey ''. Anthony choked on his drink and asked. "Did you just say August Adams?".They were all surprised with Anthony’s reaction."Yeah, she is, Anthony, what's wrong". Anita replied"But why don't I know her". Kelvin pouted and said. When everyone looked at him he winked at them "Not everyone knows her, I mean she's quite popular but she's also secretive". Anita said"How do you know all these". Eric asked herAnita laughed, "I happened to attend a charity ball last month, that was where I met Lisa Grey who was representing the Adam corporation, we talked. That's when she told me her boss doesn't like coming to all these functions. But I heard she's very good at working and has won different kinds of company deals".Anthony laughed and said like a fanboy "Omg! It's really her, she really looks cute but don't underestimate her, she's very efficient in her work, the company is now under the top two multi billionaires and she just took over". Kent was annoyed with the way Anthony was reacting so he kicked his leg under the table and asked "don’t act like you know
August realized that she was staring at him rudely. She blushed cutely and choked down her drink in a full gulp which she regretted in an instance because her throat was burning her.she forgot she was with whiskey and not juice. She really wanted to cry, so she quickly took Lisa's drink which was on the table and drank it greedily to soothe her burning throat. Touching her forehead, Lisa asked with worry on her face “Are you ok? You look sick”. Lisa was surprised when she didn't hear August's voice. She was speechless when she saw her blushing like a teenager.Even when she was in a relationship with her ex boyfriend for five years she hasn't seen her blush like this, apart from holding hands they haven't done anything that's why that bastard cheated on her baby making her look cold. She was in deep thought but became worried when she saw her friend drink her whiskey in one go. August was massaging her throat when she heard Lisa's voice.. She was shy after being caught but she
August stared at Kent with her mouth opened, she couldn't believe that the handsome guy she was staring at was her fiancé .“You are Kent Ken”. She said and closed her mouth while staring at him greedily. She doesn't know why, but she really likes this feeling.Kent stared at her and sighed, “wipe the drool on your face”. August quickly used her hands to wipe her face , but she noticed that there wasn’t any drool on her face, so she blushed in embarrassment. Kent smiled when he saw her childish behavior, she really looked cute. He cleared his throat to get her attention, “I will be in the living room , so get ready”. He said this and left the room to give her privacy.August sighed in relief when Kent left, she really couldn’t help but admire him more. “If I’m to get married to him, then no problem”. She giggled and said with happiness written all over her face. Yes, she has decided to marry him to stop her parents worrying over her, but mostly because she was attracted to him.
“Get ready tomorrow, I will be picking you up”. Kent said. When Kent saw her confused, he stretched his hands and started patting her head softly. “I hope you are not thinking of backing off”. Kent said when he saw her lost in thoughts.August came back to her senses and said, “I haven’t given you any answer”. Kent twitched his lips when he heard her reply.“Be good ok, around 10am , I will be here waiting for you”. Kent said, trying to convince her. He was not going to take “no” for an answer.August saw that he was serious, so she had no choice but to nod her head in understanding. She opened the car and was about to come down from the car when she was stopped by him. She stared at him and wondered what he wanted to say next. “Are you not saying anything? She asked, she was already getting irritated with his silence. “Kent”. She called him when she noticed that he was still not saying anything, she was ranting when she felt soft lips on hers.She was shocked beyond belief ,
“Girl you look so lost”. Lisa said and tapped her friend on the shoulder.August sighed deeply, “Do you think Kent is a nice guy? She stared at Lisa and asked. “Like seriously babe, haven’t you heard the rumor about him”. Lisa said. “What rumor? August asked. Lisa facepalmed herself and said, “What was I expecting , when I have a boring girlfriend”. “Hey, I’m still here you know”. August pouted her lips and said.“Duh I can see that”. Lisa stuck her tongue out and said.August looked at Lisa and hissed angrily.“What were you saying about Kent? She asked hoping to get answers from her friend.“I heard he has a cold personality and hardly smile “. Lisa said and giggled.August was speechless with it, because the Kent she met was an easy going person .“Are you sure about this? August asked, looking suspicious.“Of course darling,trust me on this”. Lisa said seriously.“Oh yeah, you will hardly see him with a girl”. Lisa quickly said.“Wow! August exclaimed.“What a nice discovery”.
"We are here sir". Mark said when he parked the car skillfully in the underground car park.He quickly came down from the car and walked to Kent side before opening the door for him.Kent nodded his head at him and started walking to the building. He decided to use the general entry today to do some inspections.He furrowed his brows in annoyance when he heard the noise coming from the building."What is going on? He asked Mark.Mark was speechless with his question, because they both came at the same time so how the hell was he supposed to know what was happening.So he cleared his throat and said," I have no idea sir, why don't we check it out". He suggested.Kent nodded his head and started walking to the direction where the noise was coming from.When he got there, he could see a lady making trouble for his staff so he walked coldly and said, "What is going on here".Stella's eyes lit up when she saw him, she quickly adjusted her clothes she was putting on and ran towards him, lik
August and Lisa were in the living room watching cartoons and laughing, when they heard August's phone ringing.August furrowed her brows and wondered who could be calling her .She checked her phone and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was their friend Jenny.“Hey babes, what’s up”. August said.“I’m just here, missing you both “. Jenny said, making August giggle.She stared at Lisa who was giving her a questioning look.“It’s Jenny”. She laughed and said when she saw her funny look.“Put it on a loudspeaker “. Lisa laughed and said.Immediately they put it on a loudspeaker, and they could hear Jenny's loud voice.“Lisa baby, did you miss me? She asked.“Nope, I don’t “. Lisa smirked and said.They could hear her mumbling which made them laugh.“Liar pants on fire, I know you both miss me”. She whined and said.“Jenny, let's switch to video calling, I want to see your ugly face”. August said and laughed.“Not now babes, I’m currently driving on the roadside. When I get
Stopping at the nearest shopping mall, Jenny came down from the cab and begged the driver to wait for her.She was not able to buy a gift for her friends in America, so she decided to buy it now.The driver was not angry because he knew he would be paid heavily for that.Jenny rushed to the mall and selected a few gifts for her friends and also herself.She was about to leave when she saw a beautiful glow which was displayed on the mannequin, so she walked there.“Is this dress for sale? She asked the sales lady present there.“Yes ma’am, it’s for sales”. The sales lady said with her face full of smiles.Jenny looked at the red gown which was captivating and seducing at the same time and decided to purchase it.She was about to make the payment when she thought about something.“Do you have this design again? She stared at the lady and asked her.“Yes ma’am, only three if this model has been produced”. The lady said.“Get me the rest”. Jenny waved her hand and said. She decided to bu
"I'm so happy we did this together," August said. "Me too!" Lisa agreed. "It's been an unforgettable experience “. Just then, Lisa stared at her cute godson and said, "Micheal is so well behaved! I'm amazed he didn't cry during the wedding." Jenny laughed and replied, "I know, right? I was worried he would disrupt the ceremony, but he was an angel." August chuckled, "I think he knew it was a special day. He sensed everyone's happiness.” "That's so true! Babies pick up on energy. You must have done something right, Jenny." Lusa said with laughter. Jenny smiled and said in a low voice, "Just lots of prep and luck, I think! We had a quiet moment before the ceremony, and Kevin sang to him." August giggled as she said, "Aww, that's sweet! Kevin's got a soothing voice." "And Micheal loves his daddy's voice. No wonder he was calm." Lisa added. Jenny said as she laughed "Exactly! Kevin's been singing to him since birth. It's their special bond”. Meanwhile, Micheal noticed that they
Months later, the news of the five business men who were getting married at the same time, day and venue shocked everyone.The comments under the news was much.“Oh my God, what a huge news”. A lady said .“OMG, what a shock! Five business tycoons getting married on the same day? This is insane! Another lady said.“I know, right? And at the same venue? Talk about a power move. A young man said“But who are the lucky ladies? Anyone know? A lady asked.“According to sources, the grooms are Kent, Anthony, Kevin, Eric, and Luke. And the brides are August, Lisa, Jenny, Anita, and Rosa”. A lady answered the question.“Aww, I love a good love story! Can't wait to see the wedding pics”. A young lady gushed out.“ Omg, I'm dying to know more about these couples! Are they all friends? How did they meet? “Rumor has it, they are all connected through family ties. And the wedding is going to be a lavish, high-security affair”.“ As a wedding planner, I'm intrigued! Five weddings at once? Logistic
Meanwhile, Frank and Luke joined Kent and Anthony inside the warehouse.Kent confronted Victor in the warehouse, his anger simmering. Just as Victor was about to speak, Luke and Frank entered."Dad, what are you doing here?" Kent called out and asked, surprised.Luke chuckled, his eyes twinkling and said. "You thought we wouldn't know what's happening in your lives, boy?"Eric explained, "We didn't want to stress you, Uncle. We had it under control."Frank waved his hand, dismissing their concerns. "Don't worry about it, boy. We rushed over as soon as we heard."Luke's gaze locked onto Victor, his smirk growing. "Look who decided to show up."Frank nodded, sharing Luke's amusement. "Thought you could hide from us?"Victor's face twisted in anger, his fists clenched.Luke's tone turned cold, his voice dripping with disdain. "You are stupid to think your plan would work. Don't you know we own this territory? Nothing escapes us."Frank added, as he chuckled, "Your every move was monitor
Inside the dimly lit, abandoned warehouse, Leon's smirk grew wider as he gazed at August and Lisa, who were still unconscious and vulnerable. "Finally, I have got you," he gloated, his voice dripping with malice.His gaze shifted to Trisha, who stood nearby,with her arms crossed. He chuckled, a cold, mirthless sound and said, "Thanks, you are excused," he said, waving his hand dismissively.Trisha's expression immediately darkened and her voice turned icy. "I'm not going anywhere. I want to watch the fun."She settled into a worn wooden chair, while staring at Lisa and August.Leon shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said. "Suit yourself."He signaled the burly men, who nodded and began securing August and Lisa with ropes. Next, Leon pulled out his phone and dialed a number. The ringtone echoed through the warehouse."It's done," he announced, his voice low and triumphant."Alright, we will be there soon," a voice replied.Leon ended the call, his smile growing. He pocketed hi
As they walked, August heard Lisa's happy voice. "I can't believe I will be a godmother to my two favorite babies." She said referring to Jenny and August's baby.August chuckled and smiled, she was eager to share the news with Kent. She couldn't wait to see the excitement on his face.Upon arriving at the restroom, they noticed it was empty and somewhat lonely, but they didn't think much of it. Hospitals could be quiet sometimes.After finishing, they bumped into Trisha, who gave them an eerie smile."Wow... who do we have here?" Trisha said, clapping her hands together, her eyes glinting with malice.August and Lisa, not in the mood for conversation, hissed and tried to leave. They sensed something off about Trisha's demeanor."Stop there!" Trisha commanded angrily when they ignored her.She clapped her hands again, summoning three bulky men from the shadows.August and Lisa exchanged worried glances as they sensed danger."What do you want?" August asked coldly."I want you both,
A month after meticulously planning his revenge, Leon set out to execute it. As he stood under the shower as water dripped out from his body. He smirked evilly as he recalled his sinister plan he was about to do.Weeks ago, he had discovered that Kent had purchased the company for his brother, fueling Leon's anger and determination. The memory of being humiliated still burned within him, so he vowed to make them pay for his misfortune.After his shower, He wrapped a towel around his waist and stepped out of the bedroom. His eyes scanned his room as he grabbed his phone from the bed and dialed Trisha's number.Certain areas were off limits to him as a man, so he needed Trisha's help. He knew her animosity toward August and Lisa will make her the perfect ally. Leon knew Trisha's hatred ran deep, so he intended to exploit it.Trisha answered on the first ring. "Hey, Leon. What's up?" she asked."I need your help," Leon replied with a low voice.“What could that be?”. She asked him w
"Mom!" August exclaimed, rushing to Rosa and Rhea, her voice filled with excitement."Aunty," she greeted Christy, Jenny's mom, with a warm hug."My child, how are you? Is Kent treating you well?" Rhea asked, her eyes filled with love.August blushed. "Yes, mum. He's amazing."Rhea smiled, patting August's hand. "That's good”.Just then Anthony, who had been itching to hear the news, spoke up, "Now that we are all here, Kevin, give us the news."Christabel added, "Yes, we are eager to know. What's going on with Jenny?"Only God how worried she was when she received a call from Lisa.She immediately left what she was doing and dragged her husband to the hospital but before that, she called her friends who also dragged their husbands. “Uhmmm”. Kevin said as he scratched his head, he looked at his parents who were staring at him and gulped his saliva.“Would they kill him if they knew he impregnated Jenny without marrying her? He asked himself as he was still afraid of their questions e
Kevin woke up to a disturbing sound coming from the toilet. Groggily, he opened his eyes and stretched his arm, as he looked at the empty space beside him. That's when he remembered the noise. Concern etched on his face,so he quickly threw off the covers and rushed to the toilet.When he got there, what he saw shocked him. Jenny was squatting on the floor while vomiting uncontrollably. He looked at her and noticed that she was really weak as her body convulsed anytime she vomited. "Babe!" Kevin exclaimed as he rushed to her side. He knelt beside her, holding her hair back.Jenny didn't respond as her eyes were closed. She was lost in her misery, so she was unable to speak.When he saw that she didn’t respond, his worry intensified. He had never seen her like this before, so he gently rubbed her back, as he tried to comfort her."We need to get you to the hospital," he urged her, as his voice was laced with concern.Jenny nodded feebly, her eyes still closed. She almost blacked out,
As Kent entered their bedroom, he gently laid August down, removing her shoes, clothes and accessories before covering her with a blanket.He went to the closet and brought out a simple wear with a face wipes which he used in cleaning her makeup. After dressing her, she stirred softly , as her eyes opened."Kent?" she whispered and called out."I'm here, baby," Kent replied, sitting beside her.Just then, the butler knocked softly on the door. "Sir, I have prepared the soup. Shall I bring it in?Kent nodded his head and answered. "Yes, thank you, Uncle."The butler entered with a tray, bearing a steaming bowl of soup and fresh fruit.August's eyes lit up. "Food."Kent smiled. "Eat up, baby." He said as he placed it on the table.As August ate, Kent watched, ensuring she finished every bite.When she finished, August yawned."Tired," she whispered and yawned again.Kent tucked her in. "Sleep, baby. I will be here."August's eyes closed, and Kent sat beside her, holding her hand.The bu
