It was at the wee hours of the morning when the plane landed at JKIA international airport, Bella was already feeling very tired, due to jet lag, even though she had spent most of her time on the plane reviewing the documents that was needed for the meeting later on during the day, and other than engaging in the work related activity, she had taken most of her time eating and sleeping, after all the food offered was very good, and free, which was to her advantage, she had eaten variety of the several foods that was offered to her that at time she could feel Kevin's eyes on her, he was staring at her as if she had grown two mouths, but she didn't mind him at all, she just kept on minding her own business, which in the case was food.Once they plane landed, Bella picked up her luggages, which basically comprised of Kevin's and her own stuff, and since Kevin was walking far ahead of her, she had to half run to catch up with him in the process. Bella ran cautiously to make sure that she
"Excuse me madam, where to? The driver had gathered the courage to ask her though without facing her at all. "Take me to Serena hotel, Bella said smiling sheepishly after being found out," it was then that Bella was aware that she had shown her emotions to the two people in the room and might have ended up scaring them.Derrick on the other side thought this young lady really looked so scary, just her expression earlier on had shown him how tough she really was,if in any case whoever it is that had made her angry were to be around then he thought then they would be on their way to be buried six feet deep down the ground because she have had them killed by then. "Why are you so angry, does it concern someone you were with, you can share with me, that's if you don't mind," Derrick said to Bella, he was so curious to know what exactly it was that had made her that angry to the point of her twisting her hoodie that way. "Sorry, it's nothing much, I just came here with my boss and every
Bella allowed Kevin to drag her in to the room, and all this moment, his grip on her hand had tightened that she was now feeling it hurt, but she just decided to be patient with him until they reach their room, and thinking about sharing a room with him , and reminding herself that she was now his wife, she didn't want to think about it, good thing they had signed the contract that there was not supposed to be any kind of intimacy between them, unless there arise the need for when they have act it out. "What exactly is wrong with you, why are you dragging me like this, aren't you the one who left me at the airport?" Bella asked as she forcefully pulled her hand from Kevin's hard grip, she was just so done with him, she thought he was acting a little bit immature, because if he really wanted her to stick around with him then he should have brought her along with him, why did he left her at the airport in the first place, and what was with the stone face, wasn't she the one who was sup
Bella had stayed with Kevin long enough that she was already familiar with his ways of working, he was someone who only believed in giving their all into something that needed to be done, that was more like his motto.Bella didn't want to distract him, so she decided to arrange their clothes on the closet, she was okay with sharing a room with him,after all this won't be the last time but as she was arranging them, it dawned on her that she hadn't carried any top with her, seems like she had left them on her bed and had forgotten to pack them in her bag, this was already such a big problem already. Kevin worked for almost an hour,and it was only after he was certain that everything was okay did he finally left for the bathroom to freshen up, and just in a few minutes he was already back, clean and set, and unlike always,he was putting on a casual denim pant, and a white shirt to complete his look, and when he got out Bella could only admire him because he was looking very handsome, a
It was around five thirty when Bella finally woke up, but she was surprised to find herself covered with a duvet, as far as she could remember she hadn't covered herself when she had taken a nap earlier on, she was not sure what time exactly it was, it was only after she picked up her ringing phone to answer a call did she finally realize that she had slept for five years now, and thinking about it, she had wanted to take just a short nap, how did that even turn to sleeping for five hours, and thinking that she was already late to prepare for the meeting, she excused Alex who was on call on the other side so that she may get prepare.This was not the only think that bothered her the most, but she had realized that Kevin too was in the room, and it seemed that just like her he too had dozed off on the chair, and without bothering him she ran to the bathroom to clean up first before she could wake him up, but little did she know that Kevin wasn't sleeping at all, it was only after he ha
Kevin didn't rush in getting out of the bathroom, he intentionally took quite a longer time than usual so that he would give Bella enough time to get prepared, even though he liked to tease her, he respected her privacy very much and he wasn't such a pervert who would take advantage of her, and that too not with her consent, and to add on that, he didn't want to rush her into intimacy when she was not ready yet, he would just wait until when she is ready and fully willing to be intimate with, this was what was on Kevin's mind, but when remembered that he was never bound to love any woman he immediately dismissed the thoughts from his mind. It was only ten minutes later dud Kevin finally got out of the bathroom, he had only a towel wrapped around his waist, he had done it intentionally, to take revenge on Bella for what she had done to him since earlier on, and to make sure that it would be effective, he sprinkled water on his hair, so that there would be water droplets falling down h
Kevin walked to the dressing mirror where Bella was standing, and he stood very close to her that her back was directly in contact with his chest, when Bella saw his reflection on the dressing mirror, and seeing that he hadn't put on anything on his top, and had only a towel wrapped around his waist, she immediately blushed very hard, her cheeks turning tomato red. Kevin expertly took hold of her and spinned her around so that she was now facing him, her face horizontal to his tussle, she could clearly see his abs, he had a six pack abs, clearly evident, that she was nearly tempted to touch them but she refrained herself immediately closed her eyes due to shyness, she would not want him to know what she was thinking, and to worsen the situation, she could clearly her face had turned pink, as she could clearly feel her face had already heated up.Kevin gently pulled her to himself, that now she was lying on his chest, and Bella could really swear that she could feel her heart pumping v
It was exactly five minutes after everyone had settled in the conference room that Bella and Kevin walked in to the room, side by side, with Bella having her hand entwined to Kevin's elbow, there was a pin drop silence and their footstep was the only thing that could be hard so far, each more clearer than the last, and not only that the air around them seemed so dense, they both had a business face plastered on their faces. Everyone who saw them subconsciously shuddered, after all Kevin was already such a public figure in the business world, only Bella's face seemed a little unfamiliar to them but seeing the aura that sorrounded her they all came to term that these two were really such a great couple, one made in heaven as other than her small figure, everything about her matched Kevin's aura.After all the meeting hadn't commenced at all, so basically they were on time. Kevin slowly led Bella to the chair that was reserved for them, after all he was much more familiar about this bus
It was already two months since Bella and Kevin were finally given a go ahead from Bella's parents, and yet here they were already standing at the alter facing each other. Bella had tears on her eyes, just remembering everything that had happened to her she felt like all that had happened was just a dream, it was just like yesterday when she had met Kevin coincidentally, and yet here they are, already got two kids by their side who were watching them, Memories flooded Bella's mind, fragments of a past she had struggled with. Faces flashed before her eyes, voices echoing in the recesses of her consciousness, the journey indeed was quite a long one, with both happy and sad memories. Yet, as the darkness crept over Bella knew she could not turn back. She had come too far, sacrificed too much to let fear dictate her fate. With a heavy heart, she took a step forward towards Kevin, who was looking all handsome in a three-piece tuxedo, his eyes never leaving her, appreciating her beauty. S
The whole day Bella refused it eat that it really worried her parents, they really regretted having done this trick on Bella because her reaction on it was much worse than how they had thought she would take it. Earlier on Elizabeth and Frank had agree to themselves that they would attenuate a certain drug which has similar characteristics as peanut allergy,after all Frank himself was the doctor and he had control over everything,the drug was supposed to induce Kevin to semi comma, and the only thing that they would come up with to tell Bella was that it was peanut, they kind of knew how vigorous Kevin's reaction to peanut would be, and they didn't want to risk it on him, they wanted him safe for Bella. Elizabeth and Frank didn't have much to do for the day, and just immediately after dinner they left for their bedroom as Bella had refused to go downstairs to take her meals so they left her be.Bella took a seat and placed it at the bedside yet before the bed where Kevin slept, all
Bella was surprised when she found her father on the living room, seated as if he was waiting for her, and it was at that moment that Bella knew that she had f**cked up, obviously she knew that her father was already aware that she had sneaked out of the house to go and spend a night with Kevin, and thinking that maybe her father would snap at her,so Bella had already designed a plan to herself that would make her father give in to her, so Bella pretended to not have seen him at all as she walked to the stairs."Bella stop it,stop right now!" Frank had spoke up just as Bella took the first step on the staircase, it's not like he didn't know of what she was up to, and after being found out, Bella took slow steps backwards making sure she didn't turn around to face him at all, she was afraid to face him in case he was so angry with her, that was the only thing that Bella was afraid, seeing her father being angry with her.Bella walked until she stopped just before her father, but she di
It was around five o'clock in the morning when Bella woke up, she was still being held tightly by Kevin, she knew it was time that she should wake up before her father would come over to wake Kevin up, Bella knew that if that was to happen then she would be in a lot of trouble.Bella tried to loosen Kevin's hand from her waist, he was holding it possessively like he was not going to let her go, and Bella liked it so much, she has always liked it whenever he would hold her that possessive, it just showed her how much he loved her and craved for her. Kevin was fast asleep, and it just dawned on Bella that she was supposed to be on the move back to the main mansion, otherwise if she were to waste a single moment still sleeping here her mother could find her and she knew better than anyone what would happen next in such a situation.Bella was feeling hesitant to go, and finally when she had stepped from the bed she thought of something before she came back near the bed and leaned in to K
It was around eleven o'clock in the night, everywhere was so silent and dark, and there was only one soul that was still awake at the time, she was turning and tossing around the bed as she was not sure whether her parents were asleep yet or not, but she was afraid to switch the lights on, what if she were to be found out, she didn't want her parents to know of her plans, or anything that she was up to, everything was supposed to be secretive so that she could execute her plans.Bella slowly woke from her bed, put on her sleepers and slowly walked out of her bedroom making sure she was as silent as possible. When Bella reached the stairs and thinking that maybe she would be found out, she bend down, removed her slippers and carried them as she sneaked out, passed through the living room before she out them back on and headed to the workers quarter at the farthest end of the compound, she was making sure she does not make any noise in case she were to alert her father.Bella was very
"Mom, why haven't I seen Kevin in his room, has he already left ,"Bella walked to her mother feeling disappointed when she had gone to Kevin's room but she hadn't found him at all, and she wondered whether he had already left, at some point she was feeling disappointed thinking that as she had thought that Kevin had come for her yet he had just left without her, after all it was still very early in the morning for him to have left for any where.Elizabeth had a creepy smile at the corners of her lips, but she hid it before Bella could see, after all after her discussion with her husband last night they wanted to trick Bella onto her realizing her feelings soonest possible because they too felt bothered thinking if her bringing up her children as a single mother when her husband was still alive, they were afraid that their grandchildren would be brought up the same way they had brought up their children. "Ooh, sorry I forgot to inform you that Kevin accompanied your dad to the farm ve
Only after Bella had gone to bed did the table become cheerful once more, she had bid her parents and Kevin a good night before she had gone to bed, and it was then as Kevin watched Bella's disappearing silhouette did Kevin decided that maybe it was time that he should talk to his father-in-law about what he was here for, after all ever since he came to this house there was never a time that Kevin had gotten such a chance to speak with his in-laws.Immediately after dinner nobody left the dining table, even though Frank was so tired but he knew if he would go to bed without listening to Kevin then he would be doing him fair and that is why he too didn't leave and only cast Kevin a curious glance as if asking him to go on with whatever it is that he had in his mind.I know I don't deserve to be given this chance to speak with you after everything that happened back then a few tears ago, I know I was so selfish but the reason as to why I came here is because I want to make everything st
"Ooh my sweet daughter, you are here, I have missed so much, when did you arrive,and where are my grandchildren ,did you bring them with you Frank, Bella's father spoke as he walked in to the silent room as Bella rose from her seat and ran to him hugging him tightly, she too had missed her father so much, in the five or six years that they have been together her father has always shown her all the affection in the world that she has ever yearned for, after all just after she had woken up from the comma he was always by her side taking care of her and he had told Bella that he was willing to make for all the nineteen years that he was out of her life.There were moment that both Jade and Jake would always complain about how they were not given any attention at all by their father but all this while Frank would always dismiss them and told them that they were men and they had to take care of themselves on their own unlike ladies whom he thought of as either the princess and the queen, a
Bella didn't have the courage to tell her mother what had transpired between her and Kevin but she had a lot of questions in mind to ask her, what exactly was Kevin doing here in her house in the first place, wasn't he supposed to be on a business trip as he had said to her almost a week ago when they had shared their dinner and he had promised to be back soon immediately after the meeting would be over, but she knew only Kevin himself was supposed to answer all that questions after all her mother was not there when they were talking about this.But Bella asked her mother this one question, while there were very many guest rooms in the family why in the works would Kevin be doing in her room instead of being in another room after all he was a guest, it it seemed like her mother had really forgotten that she didn't like it when someone enters her room without her permission whether she is around or not, but even though she feigned anger only Bella knew deep down that she was angry with
