2024-10-29 19:42:56It was hours later and John was handing in some reports in the CEO’s office when Chris’s mind wandered off to think about his wife, Rita.
‘What is she doing?’ He only saw her during the meeting but after that, she had been avoiding him like they were social distancing.
“That would be all Sir,” John said and turned to leave when Chris stopped him.
“Wait…. Tell Rita to type the minutes for today’s meeting and submit them to me,” Chris instructed as he perused through the files John had just handed in.
“Uh.. Yes sir,” John replied hesitantly. He was not blind, he could see the tension between the couple. It was so strong that he felt like he was suffocating in the middle of the two who had a lovers' quarrel and couldn’t sort out their issues.
Reluctantly, John entered the assistant’s office and relayed the message.
Rita felt her breath hitch upon getting the order. She snapped her eyes to look at John, she got some printed documents and g

Chris was feeling happy as he ate the food bought by Rita. Feeling warm at the gesture. She may be upset with him but she still cared. A knock on the door made Chris snap his gaze towards it and nodded his head as an approval for John to enter. “I came to check if you would like to eat something but I have noticed that the madam also bought you something. It’s fine then,” John said but Chris froze when he heard his words. ‘Also?’ “What do you mean also?” Chris couldn’t help but ask, his stomach twisting as he waited for the response. “Oh.. Mrs Stevens got me lunch. She said she noticed how I left before lunch and missed going to the company’s cafeteria.” “Oh, okay. Good to know,” Chris said coldly as he gritted his teeth. He thought Rita had bought him food because she thought about him but it was just a by-the-way gesture. His mood instantly dropped and he returned to sulking. John noticed and left the office, no

Chris was in a good mood after John told him that Rita smiled when she received the KFC he had ordered for her. He believed it was just a matter of time before Rita opened up to him again. To his shock, his mother had showed up at his office unannounced. Of course with nothing sensible to talk about apart from forcing him to marry Lydia who, according to Maria was cultured. But Chris begged to differ. Someone cultured wouldn’t shamelessly throw herself at a man. “Mom, we’ve talked about this. I love someone else,” Chris said, groaning in frustration. “Again with this nonsense. Bring her to me then. I want to meet her so that I stop troubling you,” Maria said. All this time Chris’s heart was racing. He was internally praying that Rita stayed in her office because her meeting his mom was a non starter. But of course, no one heard Chris’s prayer as Rita enthusiastically barged into his office. “Yes mom, she’s the woman I lov

In the CEO’s assistant’s office, Rita sat behind her desk, giggling to herself and often spacing out. An adorable pink would creep up her cheeks here and there as she was lost deep in her thoughts. Clearly reminiscing about the previous night. Rita and Chris had ironed out their issues and had a wonderful make up session in the shower. Though, sadly, they couldn’t take things to the next level, much to their dismay. After Rita received the unexpected “visitor”, she just snuggled up to Chris in bed and they would share a kiss here and there. At some point, Chris rubbed Rita’s stomach the way he did in their earlier days together, to ease her cramps. It was a perfect night and it felt good to not fight with each other. Rita laughed out loud when she remembered how Chris woke up with an angry boner in the morning and it couldn’t go down no matter what until Rita went down on him. She thought he just wanted her to do it again since h

Four days passed by in a jolly blur. Rita was having the time of her life. She felt alive. The two would kiss and fondle each other every chance they got. Making the hunger and desire for each other rise up a notch. Even John couldn’t help but envy the sweetness that was oozing from the couple. They made it so obvious that he started feeling like a third wheel. Although Rita would assure John that he wasn’t a third wheel, Chris would glare at him and ask him if he wanted a new office, far from them. Chris was happy and in love. But also on edge. He had made some mistakes in the beginning that he didn’t know if Rita would forgive him for when or if she found out. While in his office, Chris took in a sharp breath as he thought about his future with Rita. ‘If the truth came out. That I had a hand in—’ A knock on the door interrupted Chris’s train of worried thoughts. “Come in,” Chris said. John walked in after getting a re

On a sunny Saturday morning in a mansion at the countryside. A middle-aged woman, woke up early to prepare for what she had planned out for the day. After having a warm relaxing bath. She walked towards her walk-in closet and chose a very elegant royal blue long sleeved pencil dress to wear. It had a beautiful neckline with diamonds, making it look embellished. The dress had a cinched waist and it reached just by the knees. The woman then styled her black hair that had some streaks of grey into an elegant up do. Pinning it in place with a black hair clip. She then put on white two inch pointed toe stiletto heels and complimented her look with a white pearl necklace and earrings. The woman was none other than Maria Stevens. Christopher Stevens' mother. She was getting herself ready for a very important task that she had promised herself to do the moment she heard Chris had left the city on a business trip. “Where are you going and why are you d

The moment the private jet soared high up into the sky, Chris regretted leaving. Leaving Rita was a terrible mistake. ‘What if something happens to her?’ Chris thought to himself in agony. “Tell them to turn around,” Chris ordered curtly, making his assistant freeze in shock. “W-what Sir?” John stuttered, he could not believe his ears. “Are you deaf??” Chris asked, turning his head to glare at John. “I said tell the pilot to turn around.” “S-sir.. that’s not possible,” John said, wondering why his boss’s demons decided to start acting up when they were miles away from the ground.. ‘What if he throws me out of the plane for not following his instructions?’ John shivered at the thought. “Sir, why don’t we sort out this issue first? I’m sure Mrs Stevens will be fine in the few hours that you will be away,” John braced himself and said. He didn’t want to complicate matters by telling the pilot to turn around. Chris scoffed

Rita perked up the moment her eyes landed on Chris’s tall imposing figure. ‘Gosh! I missed him.’ Oblivious to his anger, she trotted towards him and jumped on him, wrapping her hands around his neck and circling her legs around his torso. “I missed you husband!!” She squeaked excitedly. Chris was taken aback by Rita’s enthusiasm. He was caught off guard and stood frozen for a moment but soon recovered and hugged her back. Although his eyes were glaring coldly at the man who was now approaching them, looking awkward. “Good evening, remember me?” Allister said when he got close making Chris narrow his eyes at him and tighten his hold on Rita. She was his alone. Chris scoffed, “How could I forget?” The man was good looking, Chris had to be wary of him, lest he charmed his wife with his silly jokes. Making her laugh herself into a relationship with him. Rita, noticing Chris’s mood, slid down from his torso and cupped his ch

Rita opened her eyes ever so slightly then squinted them, trying to get used to the brightness. She had noticed that Chris never turned off the lights at night. Chris was lying on his back with one arm wrapped around Rita. It had become a tradition for Rita to use his arm as a pillow. Must be a painful thing to do through out the night. Rita blushed when she realized she was naked and so was Chris. The heat radiating between them was enough to start a fire. After taking a moment to adjust Rita got up and left the bed, looking for her phone. It was a bit wild a few hours earlier and she didn’t even know where she put her phone. She searched the floor. The clothes that were torn by Chris were cleared up from the floor. After not finding her phone on the floor, Rita searched for it on the vanity table, even opening the drawers to check if it was inside. Tippy toeing across the room to the closet, Rita searched it as well knowing fully well that s

Forced marriage: Dear wife, you can't escape me 82~ All that matters (The end)
Five years later…. Rita was in a deep sleep when she felt a scorching heat coming from her back. Then she felt a hand wrap around her waist and creep up to her chest, massaging her naked breasts. The heat coming from the hand sent tingles rushing through her body, eliciting a lewd moan from her. Rita felt the hand become restless as it slid down her stomach and slipped in between her thighs, massaging her core that was getting aroused with every minute from the teasing. “Wake up my love… it’s time to fuck, hurry before the children wake up,” Rita heard Chris say and she hummed hornily in response. Noticing that his wife was still in a daze, Chris moved his fingers faster, stimulating her now swollen bud. His finger penetrated her core whilst his thumb rubbed her pleasure button in circles. He roughly massaged the soaked peach as he thrust two fingers in and out of her. “Oh.. that’s it .. fuck! Fuck!” Rita hissed a

Chris stared deeply at Rita as love swirled in his eyes. She was just perfect for him. He felt like the richest man in the world because he had her by his side. She was his treasure, more than gold and the billions he owned. ‘Fuck! I love you..’ he thought in his head. He took her hand in his and said, “thank you for trusting me, my love. It means a lot to me. After you were betrayed like that, trusting someone else would have been difficult but you trusted me from the word go. I can’t help falling in love with you every day.” Rita’s heart swelled with warmth, “I can’t stop trusting people just because one person betrayed my trust. You’re not that person.. if you betray me, it would be a choice not because you are like Eric. I’ve taken you as you are.. as Chris.. I trust you and love you. Your hazel green eyes say it all, I know my trust is in the right place this time. It’s obvious you are deeply in love with me.. I can feel it and I can see it. It f

Two months after the honeymoon… “Daddy…” Leon Stevens could be heard wailing as he ran after Chris with his short legs. “No… Daddy,” the little boy tried to run fast but he couldn’t reach his father who had just walked out of the door in time. So he smacked his little hands together and started wailing loudly. “Leon.. daddy is going for work,” Elizabeth said as she lifted the boy into her arms. “No! I wan daddy! Wah!” Leon wriggled in Elizabeth’s arms like a worm. Rita Jones was seated in the backseat of the Maybach, waiting for her husband so that they could go for work. She watched in amusement as Chris went back into the house and carried Leon, trying to pacify him. This was what happened every morning before they left for work. While Liam was still an independent baby, Leon was the complete opposite. He turned out to be a daddy’s boy. Every morning, when he woke up, the first person he would look for was his father. Then th

“I love you so much..” Christopher Stevens said to Rita Jones in his husky voice while looking down at her lovingly as they swayed to the music on the dance floor. Several hours after they said their vows, they moved to another location for their wedding reception. It was an outdoor reception held at a place called crystal gardens. There was a white beautifully draped tent in the middle of a garden. The sides of the tent were left open to allow the guests to have a scenic view of the property. Inside the tent, metal poles that pitched the tent down were turned into stunning displays of lush greenery and vines. Chairs and round tables were decorated with a gray and champagne color theme. A romantic atmosphere was evoked by the assorted strands of twinkle lights that hang along the ceiling of the tent, creating a soft ambiance. The whole place screamed elegant and classic. Rita and Chris were swaying on the dancefloor as they did the first dance. The lighting made Rita feel like s

Rita Jones felt a sense of dèjà vu while she was seated at the very front of the ballroom. A distant memory flashed through her mind. She remembered when she was just taking over the Jones group after her parents passed away. She was very nervous back then, not knowing how she would be able to run the company. It took time to earn everyone’s respect and after a few years, they were finally ok to be under her leadership. This was why it was a huge blow to her when the company she painstakingly raised to the top was suddenly snatched from her. Rita stood up from her seat and walked towards the stage gracefully as Ciara’s level-up played. She sang along in her heart as she felt the song suited her well. ~ “five, four, three, two, one Leggo! (Watch me) Level up, level up, level up, level up, level up…” ~ Rita did a statement-making hair flip as she moved forward like the boss she was whilst the song continued….

Five months later… Rita Jones had gone back to work three months after giving birth. The Jones group was doing well and the stock price kept skyrocketing since they had introduced new products into the market. Apart from that, Rita had been working on opening a subsidiary clothing company with Jasmine. Finally, it was time for the big launch. The new company was being launched at the city’s intercontinental hotel. The ballroom was filled with round tables and chairs covered in white linen. There was a stage in front for the showcase of the wedding gown designs. The room was dimly lit with the stage having more lighting. Above the stage was a banner with the words saying, ‘welcome to J&S company launch'. The J stood for Jones while S for Stevens. Reporters had gotten wind of the event and were waiting for Rita to appear so that they could fire her with questions. Seated at the back of a black Maybach, R

There are so many things to be afraid of in this world but at the top of the list is losing the ones we love. Such was the case with Christopher Stevens and Rita Jones. After moving around aimlessly and finally finding each other again, losing one another would feel like the world had ended. When Chris barged into the ward and saw the look of pure panic and horror on Rita’s face, his heart squeezed painfully. He never wanted to cause her such terror ever again. He had hoped to find her still sleeping so that she wouldn’t find out that the baby was missing. His heart sank the moment he found her staring wide-eyed into Liam’s empty crib, trembling with fright. “Chris! Chris! Liam! I don’t know where …. Where he is.. I had slept.. he’s missing! I – I..” Rita screamed breathlessly as tears streamed down her face. Her loud voice had woken up Leon who had started to cry. “Baby.. calm down—” “How can you tell me to calm down?! I just gave bir

Rita Jones never thought it was possible to fall in love with someone she had never met. But there she was, staring down at her two bundles of joy who looked like their father with love in her eyes. After the boys were cleaned up and wrapped up warmly, it was now time to feed them. Rita was yet to start producing a lot of milk but the doctor advised it would come out as the babies fed. Liam Stevens was an independent baby, after having his fill, he was held in his father’s arms where he quietly enjoyed the pampering. Leon Stevens on the other hand was very clingy. He just wanted to stay in his mother’s arms regardless of whether he was still feeding or not. It was like he was demanding for the attention he didn’t get while he was in his mother’s womb because he was staying hidden. Soon, visitors entered the ward and Maria fainted from extreme shock the moment she discovered there were two babies instead of one. “Mom!” Chris put Liam in
