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
He wanted to speak but then I stop him, I sprung up in anger, I drag my kids towards the elevator.“Chloe! I am very sorry, please don’t go, I have waited to apologize for my wrong doings for years, please just hear me out, Please.I didn’t listen to him, I was looking at the button on the elevator to leave, I press it and step out of the living room while my kids doesn’t want to leave.“ Mom, you know that man? Henry asked.“Mom, why are we leaving? Harry asked , tears dripped down my face, those memories kept coming back into my head.I was walking away in anger when his car pulled up beside us, he got out and followed us but I didn’t listen to him.“ I am sorry, I am so sorry, Chloe I…admit I was a jerk, I ……..”It was a long walk out of the compound but I manage to walk out of the compound. I rush out and stop a cab that took us home.I cry all through the ride, my kids kept looking into my face, we return home, I walked into my house with my kids.I walk into my bedroom and lay i
He walks towards the kids and sits beside them. “ Who is Henry and who is Harry? He asked. The kids both introduced each other then they Harry looked at her dad then back to my eyes. “ What are they thinking about?I screamed in my head. He look up to me. “Chloe?” I look into his beautiful gray eyes, I got glued to his eyes. “ You did a great job, you are a wonderful mom” He said. “ Yes, she use to be our everything,she loves us so much and we love her too” Harry says. I felt proud of myself then he stood up and walk to me, he stood in front of me, I didn’t move away. “ I should be mad at him” I said in my head. “ Why are my legs glued to the ground? Why can’t I stop looking into his face? He’s standing so close to me, his masculine, deep scent flooding my senses. It’s hard to concentrate on anything else. He takes another step closer when I don’t reply, and I catch my breath, counting the inches between us, watching his muscular chest, hoping he doesn’t notice the way mine is

"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
