"Wow. I did not know you felt that way." Marcel said smiling sadly, he takes one look at her then exit the bedroom.Abigail sighed, feelings of guilt spreading in her heart, she shouldn't have ousted it in such a way.. she shouldn't have carried out her frustrations with Darlington inc on him.She sat on the bed feeling a bit ashamed to see Marcel again, she knew she had to go down cause the kid would definitely need to have their lunch.She sighs getting up from the bed, she walks out of the room and head for the sitting room. "Go have your bathe kids, then come down for lunch." Abigail instructs as she walks down the stairs, "Alright mum." The triplets yelled in reply already running up the stairs."Don't run." Abigail yelled after them, and they all slowed down."Where's your brother?" Abigail asked Hailey on seeing Marcel was nowhere to be found."He just left not too long. Did you guys had a fight?" Hailey asked curiously.Abigail gulped, "Not really." She replied already stridi
"Do you have any idea on why he wants to renew the contract?" Abigail asked Walter as they walked into her office."I don't know ma'am." Walter replied. He was equally surprised when Mr Christopher called him and passed the message across. "I guess it's because he heard we were looking for other clients. Now he knows why Darlington Inc. needs Weston corps more." She said in glee, taking out some files from the office cabinet and then arranged the flies inside her bag. "Alright now, let's go. We don't want to keep Mr Christopher waiting." ******"Mr. Christopher. I see you changed your mind." Abigail said all smiles shaking Mr Christopher's hand."Indeed, I did." Mr. Christopher replied, laughing. Abigail sat down and so did Mr. Christopher. "So here is the contract.""Before we go into business, there is something I would like to say first." Mr. Christopher said putting a halt to Abigail's movements.A puzzled Abigail replied, "All right. What might that be.""I want to start by a
"Mommy, where is daddy?" Dennis asked as his mum tucked him in.Even though Abigail had told Marcel she could find another husband in a blink of an eye, she knew... she could not introduced a different man to the kids or Grandma again, it's just instantly impossible."He went on a trip, and he would be back in like two weeks time." Abigail replied as she tucking in the duvet."But daddy didn't tell us he would travel." Elise murmured frowning."That was because he had an urgent business he had to attend to. He did not really had time to tell you guys and he is sorry for that." "Can we call him then?" Maurice asked sitting up on her bed."No Maurice, your father might be busy with work. Besides you guys have to sleep early.... tomorrow is school and it's a Monday morning so I need the three of you to wake up very early, mama has to go to work.""But I would have really loved to talk to dad."Dennis pushed on, on behalf of his sisters also."Kids! Please go to bed, sleep!" Abigail screa
"How could you have carried out such a decision without thinking it through? Just when things were going great for you, you had a bar, and a fat bank account balance... money you would spend years working for and won't still be able to earn that money all at once and have it seat in your bank account. And even though you know this, you still decided to throw it all away.""Why brother?" Hailey knew she shouldn't be angry that her brother choose to end the contract, because she knew very well that he must have had a tangible reason. But the fact that she doesn't know how to come up with her Harvard school fees makes her want to be a little bit selfish."You would not understand, okay. Just drop it." Marcel replied her calmly focusing on the laptop he had in-front of him. He had to look for jobs, at least two jobs.. so he would be able to take care of his bills. "Then make me understand brother, why did you cut off something that was so good for us. You owned a freaking bar and it was
"So what are you going to do now, that you know Marcel didn't do anything wrong." Stephanie asked, her and Abigail was seated at the back seat of her car.. while Stephanie's driver took the wheel."I don't know." Abigail replied with a sigh, resting her head on the car seat. She felt so embarrassed by her earlier behavior. She should have let him explain when he wanted to do so, but she didn't let him speak. Now she could understand why he broke the contract marriage."What? You have to apologize? That is what you should do!" Stephanie said deadpan, staring at a friend with the *Are you serious? You don't know what to do?* look."I called him a glorified mannequin Stephanie, a glorified mannequin!" Abigail slaps her forehead. If she was Marcel... she would never accept any apologies coming from her."That's all the more reason why you have to go apologize to him." Stephanie pressed further."I will have to get myself prepared. First mentally, and emotionally.""You had better be fast
Abigail gazed into his eyes finding his blue eyes peculiar…. entranced by it. She had never been up close with a man before, this is a first. She knew if she moved her lips just a little bit forward, their lips would touch.. for some reason she wanted to know what it would be like to kiss him when she's not drunk. "Could you please get up, you are becoming too heavy." Marcel said breaking her chain of thoughts.Abigail let's out a series of cough, her cheeks as red as a tomato. "I'm so sorry." She mumbles getting off Marcel's body. Marcel scratched the back of his neck feeling so awkward, "It's fine.""We should.. uhm... go back to the sitting room." Abigail stuttered, she couldn't understand why she was having speech problems. She wasn't one to stutter, not even if there was a gun pointed at her head."Yeah, we should." Marcel concurred.The both of them walked towards the door and only ended up crashing into each other. "Ouch." Abigail cried out rubbing her forehead, a pout on
“I’m telling you Abigail, you have fallen deeply for Marcel.” Stephanie said to her friend throwing in a few chips in to her mouth.They were at a spa, getting a pedicure.. “Seriously, is that how you want to see everything I had just told you.” Abigail frowned at her friend already in regret. She shouldn’t have told her friend her innermost secrets and thoughts. “Ohh come on Abigail. Why do you think you was the cause of your sleepless night, huh? If you didn’t have any feelings for him you shouldn’t have been affected by his presence.” Stephanie argued.“I was just uncomfortable to have someone sleep next to me, okay. I’m so used to sleeping in that bed all by myself, having him there just changed the atmosphere.”“Yeah, to an atmosphere of love. Girl you are In love and denial is a rival in Egypt.” Abigail paid no heed to what her friend said, she knew very well in her heart that she had no feelings for Marcel, none whatsoever. “Aren’t you the woman that was with Hailey the othe
"What's going on here, why is she here?" Marcel asked trying to comprehend what was happening."I told Rachael the truth about our contract marriage." Abigail informed him, smiling so excitedly."You.. you.. you did what?" Marcel didn't know what to make of the news or how to react to it. Should he be happy that the woman he loves, now knows of the secret he has been hiding from her and there won't be a need for him to lie to her anymore.But he just couldn't understand what might had been going through his fake wife's head, when she made such decisions. "I just felt that I should reunite you two lovers. I felt this was a way for me to show my gratitude, for what you did for me with Mr Christopher." "Well.., I would leave the both of you to discuss. I'm sure you have a lot of catching up to do and months of longing stored up in your heart." Abigail winked at Marcel, said her goodbyes to Rachael and left."So.... When were you planning to tell me all about your contract marriage?" R
