Guilty Pleasure Chapter 40
Mia's PoVAfter about forty minutes, my door slid open, I came out of the room to know who it was and it was Ana. She came in feeling tired"I couldn't do it" she said"It's alright" I replied"I have to go back to work at some point, what am I going to do?" She asked"Take your time, you will go back but that day isn't today, stop putting so much pressure on yourself" I said to her"Fine but what are you doing home so early?" She asked"I—i got fired" I replied"What? no. What happened?" She asked shocked"Liam came to my firm with his wife" I replied"Oh no" she said putting her palm over her mouth"Oh yes" I said "she said that he told her that he asked me to take her case so I can make her lose" I explained"Oh no he did not, you told them this isn't true right?" She asked anxious"Yeah but did they care to believe me? No" I said placing my palms on my face"This isn't happening" she said relaxing back on the chair"Tell me about it" I replied "Why would he do that though?" She a

He bent his head in shame, thinking of the next thing to say“Look, I will get her to calm down, okay?” He replied“Liam you haven’t done anything…” I said before he interrupted“Listen, listen, stop” He said to get my attention “Just let me explain” He added then exhaled while rubbing his forehead“I was dying at your office, I was dying at that table, I was dying looking at you and I just wanted to be with you and when I told her that I wanted to be with you… She made me come into your firm and confront you” Liam explained and waited for my response“She made you? how did she do that. She happened to drag you by the arm down to my workplace? And so you did?” I asked him calmly“I had to, because she’s watching me, she tracking my email, watching my every move and the Private investigator, the bitch is watching me” He replied“If that is the case then why did you come here? have you not gotten me into enough trouble as it is?” I yelled at him then there was silence for a minute“Mia,

He stood there looking at me, I can't quite figure out what was going on in his mind but I know that whatever it is, isn't going to be good"Now, if you will excuse me I have to get ready for my date" I said "Mia you can stop this now" he said but it sounded more like a warning. He tried to touch me but I shrunk away"Or what?" I asked, daring him"Okay, if you are not going to tell me with whom the date is with, how about the place, can you tell me where you are going?" He asked desperately"What? So you can show up and ruin my date? Incase you haven't noticed, you ruin everything you touch. Like I said before, you don't have that right, not anymore. Now I need you to get out of my house" I replied"Wow, okay fine. I will go" he said to my surprise. I thought it was going to take a lot more than that"Good, bye" I said"Right" he said before walking out the doorI closed the door after him and breathed out in relief'That was easy, I need to get out there' I said to myself before wa

I didn't know how much time have passed. When I opened my eyes, I saw the man whom I was drinking with, he was on call, I couldn't make out exactly what he was saying and my vision was blurry, my head felt so heavy. I tried to get up but I couldn't, I was so weak but then I realized my hands were bounded to my back and the surface I was laying on was soft, my guess is that am on top of a bed. The light was dim, I could barely see anything coupled with the fact that my eyes were still turning a bit, I didn't know if we are still in the same room or if I have been moved to another place when I lost consciousness. How long have I been out? I wondered, what have you gotten yourself into Mia? And just then a sharp pain crossed through my stomach and I whimpered, this drew the man attention to me"She's awake" I heard him say on the phone to whoever it is he was talking toHe walked over to me and held my face up, my eyes were weak, he kept on appearing double in my view. What the heck did

After the report was made, they told us they will be on look out for him. We left the room after that, when we got to where Liam was seating, we found him on a call, it sounded really intense, he ended it once he noticed our presence"Are you done? What did they say?" He asked"They said they will be on a look out for him" I replied"Just that?" He asked"Yeah" I replied"Okay fine, you have to go home and get some rest, I know you must be tired" he said"What about you? You are not coming?" I asked"I have to get home but I will call you okay?" he said"Okay" I replied with a low tone "do what you got to do" I added "Mia—" he started"Mia come on, I will take you home" Ana called cutting him offI turned around and left with her"You girls be safe" he yelled at us as we leftWhen we got to my building, I wanted to say goodbye to Ana but she just walked passed me, I knew what she wanted to lecture me but haven't had the time to"Let's go" she said I just followed, Ana walked me all

I moved to the kitchen to get water from the fridge, I sat by the kitchen table to drink the water, Liam got up to join me at the table some minutes later. We both sat across from each other at the kitchen table, our eyes locked in a tense stare. The air was thick with tension as we tried to talk about the issue of Liam’s inability to divorce his wife without tearing my world apart and also the incident that just occurred"I can't believe you went on a date with some random guy" Liam said with his voice shaking with anger and hurt"I can't believe you were stalking me" I replied"I don't regret it, am glad I was there" he said looking straight at meI am glad he did too, but somehow the idea of him stalking me didn't really settle well with me"I know, am glad you were there too and am sorry, I did that just to make you jealous" I replied, my eyes downcast "It was a mistake, and I regret it" I added with a sad tone trying to reach out for Liam’s hands and he quickly brought forth his

Ana’s POVWhen I got home, I was so exhausted that I laid down flat on one of my seats, dozing off but I have to try to keep myself awake so that I can freshen up after the day’s work, I decided to get myself a glass of red wine, I got up immediately to get it. Just while I came back to sit and put on the Tv, I heard a calm knock on the door, I wasn’t expecting anyone but I quickly rushed to check who it was“Hey” I said to Ken after I opened the door and looking surprised because I wasn’t expecting to see him“Hey” He said in a calm voice“Come in” I said inviting him as I opened the door wide, he walked in slowly and gently, then I noticed the way he was looking at my table and the bottle of wine beside the glass, I quickly rushed without locking the door the clear the table because I remember that he is a preacher and has a history of alcohol abuse“I am going to take this out now” I said to Ken and quickly picked up the bottle and glass of wine“It’s fine okay” Ken replied and dip
Guilty Pleasure Chapter 47
Ana’s POVI woke up and Ken was beside me on my bed, still sleeping though, I went out to the kitchen, got my wine from the fridge, I went over to the sitting room and sat down“God please forgive me, I fucked a preacher” I whispered to myself after sipping some wineKen got up got up and came out after some time, yawning and staggering like a sleepy baby, he came to sit beside me. This time I didn’t bother taking out my wine, I felt a bit more relaxed and since we had sex what is wine to compare?“So it finally happened right” Ken said to me as I was drinking from my glass so I held the wine glass in my mouth just to avoid saying anything to him“You started it though” I replied after a while “I had nothing to do with it, I didn’t force you or lure you into doing anything right?” I asked him“No you didn’t, I am also sorry for coming hard on you like that” He replied“It's fine Ken, it is really” I said to him then he exhaled and turned to look at me while smiling“So you let me slee

Mia's PoVThe next morning I prepared and headed to the office, I had a plan and the plan was to expose my boss for who he truly is and what he has truly done. I know he is smart enough not to implicate himself so I have to be very crafty with this. I need to push the call ight buttons or all is lost. I don't have the evidence the P.I gave me with me anymore since they were confiscated by the police after Liam dragged me into his mess once again. I have to be really smart about this actually because I do not have any other plan, if this doesn't work, I don't know what next to do. I have just one shot and I plan on making good use of it. I took a taxi to the office, ones I entered the premises, I told my secretary to let Mr. Edward know am here and that I want to meet with him.

"He said one thing at a time and promised everything is going to be alright" I said sitting down on the couch and stretching out my legs. It's been a really long day and my legs are aching badly. A massage would be such a bad idea right now. I desperately need one"Ana, do you think am stupid?" I asked"What? No, not at all" she answered quickly and I smiled"You are a good friend and I know you love me but I need an honest answer this time please" I said to her"Mia, you are the smartest woman that I know, I don't think you are stupid, you just made some wrong choices that's all and hell, who doesn't at some point?" She said"I'm not so sure about the smart part" I said as I started to get emotional again and tears started to line up"Mia, opening your heart to someone doesn't make you stupid, you were in love, it's not something that you can control, we can't control who we love" she said in a sweet voice"I don't know, I feel really stupid, I feel so empty" I said sobbing"Hey stop

"Liam took me there to see a building, he wanted me to start up private practice there, to start my own firm in the middle of nowhere. His wife said some things about him being an isolator and a control freak and am seeing that now"This is bad Mia" she said taking a sip from her glass then her phone began to ring, it was an unknown number. She picked up"Hello, who is this?" She asked"Hi Ana, this is Liam" he replied "It's Liam" she said to me"What?" I asked coming closer and whispering to her to put it on speaker"How the hell did you get this number?" she asked him"I just spoke to my lawyer, we really need to talk to Mia, it's really important, is she there with you?" He asked ignoring Ana's question"No she is not, whatever you want to tell her, you can tell it to me, i will just pass it on later" she said to him"I know you don't know me like that but I promise I didn't do all these things am being charged for, am innocent. It's just my wife and her lawyer that is doing all th

Mia PoVWhen we got to Ana's place, I sat down like someone whom the body was present but the mind was absent. Ana went over to her fridge and got out a bottle of alcohol and two glass cups. We came over to the couch and dropped them on the table then poured out the drinks into the two cups, and slide one my way as she took up her own glass and drank from it, a slight frown appeared on her face as she did"Are you going to tell me what happened now?" She said taking another sip"He was laundering money and dealing with really dangerous people" I said still sitting still"What? Mia did you know about this?" She asked surprised"No, I did not. You know I can never involve myself in something like that. Why would you even ask that" I said looking at her"Then why are they in your house and taking all your stuff?" She asked still doubting that I didn't know anything at all about the crimes "He asked me to move some money into my account but that was to keep it away from his wife, not bec

Ana's PovI drove over to Mia's place after she said not to come pick her again, I waiting for over an hour but she didn't come in, so I went across the street to get dinner but when I came back up the door was unlocked and wide open and there were police all over the place tossing everything around and moving things. I was so shocked I thought I went to the wrong room, but looking inside I realized I didn't go to the wrong room, I am at the right room, all of Mia's properties were there and the police officers were just touching everything."What the heck? What is going on here?" I asked as one police officer rushed out to stop me from entering the premises "is Mia inside that house?" I asked the police officer but before he was able to respond, Mia showed up, she was coming from the stairs and has no idea about all of this."You again?" She said to the police officer that came out to stop me from entering the place, I guess they know each other or have met at least"What the hell is

"Good news, he accepted to let you meet with him, he should be here any second" he said and I breathed out in relief and my face brightened up"Thank you" I said happy he did me the favour"Sure" he said. Then the door opened up and another officer led Liam into the room in handcuffs. I should really get used to seeing him like this since it's now happening more often. After the other officer brought him in, he left the room"I will let you two talk" the nice officer said before leaving us both alone in the room and closing the door behind him"Hey, listen" Liam started but I could wait for him to talk not after what he put me through today and all the things I found out about him"What the fuck Liam" I said upset"Look, listen to me. It's my wife and her lawyer lover, they are the ones setting me up, they are the ones doing all this. I can tell you I didn't do anything. They had all this planned out" he said desperately"Do you know how worried I was, when those guys carried you, I

"Look the charges are all legit" he said apologetically but still confident"You should know that his wife is really on to him, she could have plotted all of this, believe that woman is crazy, I wouldn't put it pass her, maybe you should be focusing on her instead torturing me" I said upset"No, this isn't his wife. He has been doing this for a very long time now, even before he met her,tl this one is on him not her" he said"Okay I think am gonna go" I said getting off the car seat but he got off the driver's seat and stopped me "Please just calm down, I know this is a whole lot for you but being angry about it isn't going to make it go away and besides where are you going to go?" he said to me"No am not upset about what you are telling me, I guess am just angry at myself for not figuring it out on time. You think you know someone but–shit!" I said with a mixed feeling. This is just all too much"Hey listen, you know I really can drive you back to the city, instead of sitting here
Guilty Pleasure Chapter 64
Once he heard my reply, he parked by the side of the road and got down from his car"Hey, are you okay?" He said coming toward me, I became scared and alert I took some steps backwards to put a space between us at least to give me a headstart if something should happen. What is he is a psychopath or a kiddnapper or a killer? There were many things running through my mind and my insecurities set in. If anything should happen to me here, nobody will know because Liam drove me out here very early in the morning, I didn't get the chance to call or tell anybody where I was headed and now I am left here no phone, absolutely nothing on me but my cloth"Obviously not" I said still suspicious"Well, did your car break down somewhere? I can help you to fix it, I am not a mechanic but I know a few things" he said nicely. How is he so nice, it's awkward I thought to myself"No" I said keeping my eyes on him and studying him"In that case, can I give you a ride back to wherever?" He asked"Do you
Guilty Pleasure Chapter 63
It was a building, a complete building. I did not know if I show uod get excited or not. "Liam what is this?" I asked a little confused"It's a building, you can start your firm here. I mean it looks a little bit old, we can fix it up a bit" he said smiling. I stood there still confused, why would I want my firm an hour away the city? Was he joking and I specifically told him I don't want to go private"It fit the profile perfectly, it's spacious has all the equipments and fittings intact, you will love it, let's just take a look inside" he continued"Liam, we didn't talk about this, you didn't think this is something you should have mentioned to me before now? Instead of driving us out here this early?" I asked a little upset"Just wait a second okay, let's go take a look inside first, am sure you will love it" he said. I just felt that he wasn't hearing me"I'm a city girl, I love the city, I don't want to be here Liam, out alone here in the middle of nowhere?. All my friends are i
