Finaly it was the Beauty pageant day, Steph came to me inside my room. I sat on the edge of my bed nervously.
“ What are you still doing here? All contestant are at the dressing room” Steph says. “ Comeon,you’ve got to get ready” She says to me.
“ I am so scared and nervous at the same time” I stood up and walk to the window.
“ What? ! You can’t be nervous and scared today? you have worked hard for this day? If you can be the overall best student in school definitely you can be the most beautiful girl in the school” Steph says.
“I am scared that if I don’t win people will turn me to a laughing stock, how will I ever face them, they will mock me” I said turning to her .
“ Think about yourself and forget all about they think”Steph says.
She held my hand and drag me out of the room, we walk to the dressing room, most of them are all dressed, our coach saw me and quickly came to me, she brought the clothes she help me get.
I quickly changed into a straight gown, All contestant began to walk to the stage, I was number forty two, I step out to the stage, I only try to have courage to step on the stage. While standing in a pose my eyes travelled around and I noticed Riley eyes was on me.
RILEY.
To everyone , I was there for Amanda but deep down me I was there for Chloe, I haven’t been able to take her off my mind since that night at the rehearsal. When she had not stepped out, I kept looking out maybe she would come out to the stage and when she stepped on the stage, she began the one all guys had their eyes on, there is an online group for the big boys of the school where we discuss our party life and the hot girls in school.
We picked five of the girls amongst us on the chat group debating on which of the selected girls was the hotest
Chloe got the highest poll, she was the only discussion on the group.
All the girls kept showing their beauty until they remained top five. Amanda was one of the top five but no one was talking about her.
They all were asked questions on how wise will they use the prize if they win.
Amanda says she was going to shop and look more beautiful.
Chloe says she will invest half of the money in a fix deposit so that when she is out of school she will began to run her business while she will visit new moms at the hospital who finds it hard to get few things for their babies and help.
She gave a brilliant answer and everyone clapped for her. Two got disqualified and the runner up was called and it wasn’t Amanda,I could see the shock on her face, she got angry and storm off the stage.
Finally the winner was called and it was Chloe. Chloe was shocked she won. She was crown the most beautiful girl on college at that moment I thought of the upcoming prom that I would want her to be my Prom.
CHLOE.
I can’t believe I won the most beautiful girl in school ,I was crowned while my mind went back to Amanda’s surname.
She is Sam ,I am Sam, could she be my step sister? I thought.
I try to cross my heart from she being my stepsister and enjoying the win.
After the win, I went to the school website, I was being praised by some men but definitely not the girls in-fact they couldn’t hide their jealousy.
Steph was so happy for me, I got other cash prizes like laptop and brand new phones etc.
I called mom and show her how successful I had become in school. I sent her some of the money even though she asked me to keep it then I did like I answered during my questions during the beauty pageant. I went to make a six years fix deposit with half of the money while I visited some small hospitals to help new mom with some things. I gave $4000 to the less privilege new moms.
RILEY.
After the winning, I sent message on the group that I am going to ask her to be my date for the homecoming, Homecoming is in two weeks time and I want to be the guy to go with her to homecoming, you know what it feels like being with the most beautiful girl in the college.
Most of the guys on the chat group began to say how they want her to become their Prom but they are scared of speaking to her.
I typed on the group that I will get her and make her my prom.
Then one of the guys decided to place a bet of $10 000 that whoever gets her takes each one $10 000.
I then typed that I will get the Chloe to be my my date.
The next day I sent an invitation to Chloe and she turn down my invitation. I try to chat her up and she declined my invitation.
I drove to her hostel very early in the morning after some days , I waited for her till she came down the stairs. I got out of my car and rush to her.
“ Hey Chloe, I…..”she didn’t let me speak before walking away. I drove following her. She stopped then I got out of my car.
“Hey,I want you to be my date for homecoming” he says.
“Why should I your bully be your date for homecoming?
“ I am sorry for everything, be my date,please? He says.
“No! She snaps.
“ if just for that day” I continued.
“ NO! You spoilt brat! You bully me countless times, you are never serious with your life, you Lack focus, I am glad I am opportune to tell you what you are today, you are nothing but a jack ass, I don’t want to be your Prom and I don’t want to have anything to do with you, stay off my path! When I take the right path, you take the left! She yelled out.
She walk away while I stood lost in her words, I began to hear laughter that was when I realized lots of students has gathered , they already have everything that just transpired between us on their phones.
Amanda crosses me with her car. She storm out of her car.She rushes to my car,I wined down the car.
“ What the hell as that? She yelled at me.
“ Get your car out of my way” I said to her coldly.
“ And what if I don’t? I hissed and wined up the car window. I waited and watch her display her anger, when she got angry she returned into her car and drove off.
I couldn’t go to the classroom, my phone beep and it was a message from my friends to check the group. I had become a laughing stock, every guy on the group chat took me for a joke, they said how they have tried to woo her in the last few days and has giving up. They said I think it’s everyone I can buy with my granddad's wealth because I am a future trillionaire. I was trending for the wrong reason on all school chat group and social media. No girl as ever humiliated me like she did, I am going to make sure she pays for this. “ I will get you Chloe and humiliate you just as you humiliated me today”. First of all , I am going to win her over, have sex with her then send her away publicly that I am done with her. I pick my cellphone and call one of my men. I told them to buy as much as many beautiful flowers and Chocolates for her in her room. CHLOE. After saying what I said to Riley out of anger, I felt bad when I turn back and see people laugh at him. Although,I said what was
I would go partying pretending to be happy but deep down me, I knew I was lonely without her, I knew I miss her but I didn’t want people to see me go back to her then I felt I should apologise during Vacation then I will patch up things with her then we will start the relationship secretly. Before Vacation,I couldn’t keep lying to myself that I haven’t fallen for her, I went to her hostel to look for Chloe,when I got there ,her room mate told me she moved out. “ What? Moved out to where? I asked her room mate. “ How do you expect me to know? You know she isn’t my friend and I m not a sister’s keeper” she says picking her book from her desk.I turn to her as she was going to pick a book from her study table. I open my eyes wide, my guilt took over me at that moment. I turn to her roommate to ask when she moved out of the room then she said few hours ago. I felt hurt, I return to my dorm, I was silent all through that day, very early the next day, I got dressed for class hoping that
I stare at my boss Mark for a solid minute. I cannot have heard him right. He’s sitting there watching me, waiting for a reaction. “Sorry?” I ask, after a long, deafening silence. Why… did I do something wron…..”Before I could finish my sentences he cuts in. “ Why shouldn’t I fire you? Tell me?! Do you think that is how I run my business, if I run my business by letting my employee taken unnecessarily leave would my company have grown this big? He said. Tears began to sting my eyes, I didn’t let his words get deep into my skin, I began to plead. “ I am so sorry sir, two of my kids were ill, I promise it won’t happen again” I pleaded. “ It would happen again and that is why I am relieving you of your duties”My boss says. The tears I had been trying to push back fell down my cheek, he turn to his laptop and buried himself in work. I pleaded for almost ten minutes but it all fell on deaf ears. I dried my tears and turn to my boss, I walked out of his office drying off my tears. Th
Regretfully, since I hate to leave them, I tiptoe out of the kids’ room. It’s a nice room, painted a cheery yellow, with two bed, they have separate bed but sometimes they like sleeping in each other’s bed. If I don’t get a job soon, I won’t be able to afford a space like this soon. My landlord will evict me, and I will have no where to stay wit my kids. I kept checking my computer to get good feedback every day but I never got any until after a week when I got some four hours job. The job wasn’t paying well , it not even paying half of what mark pays me but atleast I was able to keep paying back my loans to get higher loan to sustain for that one year. I manage working for about a year counting each day before the 365 days completed. On the very day of that I was going go and collect the capital and interest I was so happy, I went to the bank, provided possible document for signing, I signed the documents. I got double of my investment which means , I got back $10,000 in total, I
CHLOE. I lost my job again, I had to look for a new job to sustain I and my kids, I walk into my kids bedroom, they were both asleep, I walk to them and caress their hair, I kiss them on their forehead then I turn off the light of their room and return to my job search on the internet.I never got one. AMANDA. I rush into my car in tears. I shut the door of the car so tight, wine up my car. I held the steering of my car tight and weep, what else can I do? I have tried everything to make him mine but it’s all to no avail, I feel stupid for waiting all this while thinking he would love me, it’s five years already yet he never forgets her. I couldn’t drive, I pick my cellphone and call my mom. “ Mom, please send down your driver to Riley’s company to pick me up” I said in tears, I sob as I spoke over the phone. “Honey, what happened? Are you fine? Are you okay? My mom asked curiously. “ Mom, I need to get out of here please” I said sobbing. “Fine , fine just calm down , I will send
“ Your wedding, those investors gave us the condition and we had to, it will boost our business and they are also influential people” My grand ma says. I kept quiet then my grand dad came to me, Amanda’s parents came to me. My grand parents introduces us and my Grandmom said to Amanda’s dad. “ it’s such a surprise they already got along, this must be a bond made from heavens” “ We should go to the dinning” My Grand dad says. We all went to the dinning, we ate and it was on the dinning table after eating that I learnt they invested their daughter’s shares inour company and the most shocking is that they already have the wedding invitation printed. I was pissed , I excuse myself and pull Amanda along. Everyone thought we were getting along,her parents and my grand parents were happy. I drag her out of the house. “ What was that?What is the meaning of that? I asked Amanda. “ what are you talking about? She pretended like she doesn’t know what I was saying. “ Don’t even try to pl
Riley’s grandma and grandpa went to the groom’s men,they asked them what happened, they couldn’t tell his grandparents anything.I walk out of the church in tears my parents followed me, I stopped a cab and ask it to take me home.Not long my parents arrived home. They were upset.“ What an humiliation! My dad said as he enters into the house.“ I can’t believe he did this t our daughter! I am going to sue him for this” My mom says while I sat down on the staircase.I cry out and my mom walks to me.“ Oh honey! I am so sorry” My mom pull me into her embrace and I wept on her shoulder.FEW DAYS LATER.RILEY.It was allover the internet that I left Amanda at the altar but none of that was even my worried now.Chloe is my worries, I have gone to the same spot my men found Chloe over and over again maybe she will come around again.My men said they saw she and the kids come to the place to get some groceries then I thought she must be frequent here.But I never saw her again.Since the fl
“Harry and Henry, we’ve got to go or we would be late for my interview” I said to them.“ Mom,I am coming, I am lacing my shoes” he yells out from their room while Harry rushes to me. He rushes out of the house and run back to me.“Mom! We are riding in a Benz” Henry says.The driver came to me to take my backs, he helped me to put it in the car trunk.Harry rushed out with his shoes still not laced.“ It’s not a Benz, it’s a Maybach” Harry corrected.“ Maybach was produced by Benz,it’s just a brand name” Henry corrected.That’s my kids, that is how they fight, Harry is used to all electronics and car’s name and brand while Henry is used to studying lots of science and he loves tech.“ Guys , can we stop this! I yelled out.“I haven’t lace my shoes, mom” Henry says.“ If I don’t get this job, there will be no gift guys” Henry quickly lace his shoes while harry rushes towards the car, the driver opens the door for Harry while Henry rushes to the car, the driver opens the car for him wh
"I don't know what to think anymore Nathan. This is all just like a nightmare. I may never see her again, or my child. The thought scares me more than anything.""Don't lose hope my friend. I am certain that we will find Nicole eventually. Nothing bad has happened to her. Nicole is a strong lady; she can survive anything. I have a very good feeling that she's doing well. We will find her soon."NICOLE"Ash! Are you leaving already?" Claudia asked, coming into the house. She carried a bag with her, containing some items. Claudia is my close friend from college."Yes Claudia, my presentation at work starts in an hour." I was packing my bags, ensuring that I'm not missing anything. I checked to make sure that my health insurance card and phone are in the bag. I was going to visit the hospital right after work for my prenatal care. The hospital was just a few miles away from where I work.Four months have passed since I had met Claudia at the O’Hare airport as soon as I got into the city.
"He left? Where did he go to? Did he say where he was going?" I asked frantically."No, sir. He didn't mention where he was going. He only packed up his stuff and started leaving in a hurry, he was trying to call someone on the phone as he left"."Are you Ok, sir?" One of the employees asked. I ignored her and thought of what I could do next.It had been 3 months since Nicole disappeared with no trace and I hadn’t been able to get hold of Justin, either. He also left IM Corp after taking a few days off after that day.I received Justin’s contact information and tried to have face to face conversations with him several times, but there was no response from him. Eventually, I hired a private investigator to help me find them. One day, they informed me that they had found Justin working at another tech company, Sinews and living in a new apartment in the city.I cancelled my meetings for the rest of the day and hurried over to see Justin at Sinew with Nathan."Welcome to Sinews. How may
"How official!" He mocked, shielding his body from another violent hit from me."You're just crazy. Please don't forget to get me the plane ticket. I'll be all packed up and waiting for you to return this evening"."Alright. I'll be leaving now. I made you breakfast. Try not to throw up, please. It took me an hour to make those waffles.""An hour? Just to make waffles? Did you use sunlight to cook them?" I rolled my eyes at him. "All for some tasteless waffles."“Hey, if they were tasteless maybe you should save some for me. I didn’t want all that effort to go to waste.” He left the room while I laughed. I was certainly going to miss Justin. That is for sure!NATHAN"What happened? I heard Nicole resigned.” Nathan stormed into my office. I was totally in shock."What are you talking about? You informed me she was feeling unwell yesterday and asked for a sick leave. Isn't that why she still didn't turn up for work today? I checked her office today, but she wasn't there"."Yeah, yeah. I
“You are the most amazing man in the world. Do you know that? Wait. Don’t answer. I already know what you’re going to say.” A smile fell upon her lips.“Damn right, I am.” I kissed her.Our wedding was a blast. Between the alcohol, great conversations, and all the dancing everyone did, we all had a great time.I was talking with my brothers and cousins when Henry and Aunt Barb walked over.“Boys. I’m happy you’re all together. There’s something I need to tell you.”“What’s up, Mom?” Stefan asked.“Henry asked me to marry him, and I’ve accepted his proposal.” She held out her hand.“WHAT?” Simon spit out his drink.My brothers and I looked at each other and didn’t say a word.“Mom, are you serious?” Sam asked.“Very serious. Do you not see the diamond on my finger, Samuel?”“You haven’t known each other that long,” Sebastian said.“It doesn’t matter if we knew each other for a week. When you know you’re meant to be with someone, you know. Isn't that right, darling?" She kissed his chee
“Good. Then I’ll be connecting your credit card to my Amazon account.”“Now, now, Nicole. Let’s not get all crazy.”She laughed as I pulled her into me.“Shall we go greet our guests and thank them for coming to our wedding?” she asked.“Yeah. Let’s go.” I grabbed her hand. “I can’t wait to introduce you to everyone.” I smirked.“Very funny.”NICOLEAfter the DJ announced us, we stepped into the ballroom while all of our guests shouted and clapped.“I’m going to grab a drink. Do you want a water or something?” Nathan asked.“Water would be great.”“I’ll be right back.” His lips met mine.“In case I haven’t told you. You look gorgeous.” Jackson smiled as he kissed my cheek.“Thank you, brother-in-law.” I grinned.“Hey, bro.” Conner walked over and handed me my drink.“This place looks as beautiful as it did when Georgia and I got married,” Jackson said.“Thanks. I did a good job, didn’t I?” A grin crossed Conner’s lips.“Excuse me?” I laughed.“What?” He cocked his head. “You were stil
“Thank you.”“Gabriel. Grayson.” She walked over and hugged them. “It’s good to see you both again.”“Good to see you too, Barb.” Grayson smiled.“So, Mom.” Simon walked over and hooked his arm around her. “We’re going to have a little chat once the wedding is over.”“A chat about what, Simon?”“About you and what’s going on.”“Nothing is going on, darling. Put your detective instincts away.” She patted his chest. “I’ll see you boys in the Gardens.”“Your bowtie is crooked.” Nathan walked over and straightened it. “Are you ready?” He gripped my shoulders."Are you? Your day will be here before you know it.”“Speaking of,” Jackson spoke. “Have you and Sofia set a date yet?”“No. Not yet. We’re discussing it.” He smiled.“It’s time,” Christian said as he glanced at his watch. “Let’s go get you married.” He patted my back.* * *I stood there with my brothers and cousins and wasn’t nervous. This day almost didn’t happen for two reasons. One was because we weren’t sure if Nicole was going
I think about it for a moment and realize that I really should focus on building my relationship with my Fiancee and baby daddy. We can do all of that later but now we should focus on knowing each other.Even though we should think of focusing on our upcoming project. He cocks his head slightly. “Shouldn’t I be asking you that?I love you and I want to be with you and who knows? I could die before you.”Nathan glares at me. “Don’t talk about dying,” he replies angrily.“But it’s the truth, anything can happen so the age difference doesn’t bother me.”Nathan exhales. “What about your parents then? We should meet them again ?”Laughing, I shake my head. For what?. But I stopped letting them tell me how to live my life a long time ago. They are just going to have to accept you and love you like I do.” I smile at him and lean forward to kiss him.The kiss grows deeper, but Nathan pulls away before it can turn into something more. “If you weren’t so sore right now, I would take you right h
Her back bows,body quivering and thighs clenching as our bodies grow slick with heat and sweat. Soon enough, she stiffens and shatters in my arms, reaching that desired peak for the second time in minutes.I watch her with adoration,marveling at how extraordinary she looks right now as she rides her pleasure. Groaning loudly now, with her name on my lips, I follow her swiftly, thrusting with careless abandon until we are both riding that high.Later that night,after whipping up something for us to eat, I feed it to Nicole with one hand while grazing her hip with my other hand.After chewing and swallowing,she clears her throat and stares at me curiously. “What made you change your mind?” She asks.“What do you mean?”I reply, handing her another bite which she takes in her mouth.“Well,maybe you cast you spell on me, I am not doing al of this because of the baby alone but because I believe you will be the best daughter to Kiera and our unborn and I love you so much.”I drop the plate o
Slowly,my hands trail her upper body and settle on her breasts. Gently I squeeze both just as my mouth peppers kisses along her neck. She quivers, moaning loudly as my mouth descends on her nipple. Never before have I felt this way with any woman, not even Bridget whom I once loved.Although everything is happening so fast,I make sure to remain gentle with her and I take my time caressing her body, learning every inch of it. I am just as eager to pleasure her as much as I am pleasured, if not more.Suddenly,I pick her up and rise from the couch with her thighs wrapped around me. I carry her towards the bedroom she slept in the last time we were here. Once we’re in there, I place her feet gently on the floor and drop a kiss on her forehead before proceeding to pull off my own clothes and underwear.I guideher to the perfectly made bed and help her lie on it before going to lie beside her. “You are an enigma, Nicole, so beautiful,” I whisper into her ear as I begin to trail my mouth acr
