"Greg are you there?"Greg cursed under his breath as he recognized Sophia's voice. He had told the girl that he wanted to be alone, so why the hell was she looking for him now? "I...I have to go." The beautiful woman in his arms said nervously and started to get up but he held her back down. "You are fond of saying that, Carrot."He drawled. "But I really have to." Laura said breathlessly as she adjusted her clothing. "Whoever she is, I don't want her to see us like this."But he wouldn't budge. "Please Greg, please."Greg looked at her beautiful face. She was right though. He wouldn't want Sophia to start plotting against her like she had with some other women that had gotten with him in the past and that was bound to happen again if Sophia saw them together. He released her reluctantly and groaned as her soft body and heady scent left him. After one last look at him, with eyes still filled with desire, she turned to go but he stopped her. "Carrot?"She turned to him. "Yes?"
Laura opened her mouth in shock when Greg told her the reason for his odd attitude that morning and showed her the newspaper on the coffee table. She tried to speak but no words could come out of her mouth. Greg stood up and paced the room. "Do you actually know the reason for my anger now?" He grounded. "It's not the fact that a picture of you and I in an intimate position is in the papers, it's the fact that you connived with your minions to have it put there! You of all people! I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't called that stupid publishing company."Laura flinched. "What? Aren't you going to deny it?" He snapped angrily. "You wanted fame and you got it! You wanted the paparazzi at your heels and you're gonna get your wish!" "Greg I...""Shut up!" he growled in anger. "Not another word from you."He took a deep breath, turning away from her and said calmly. "And I had thought you were different. I thought you..." He slumped his shoulders. Laura took a step close to him.
Lizzy's words kept going through Greg's head and he wondered if she was telling the truth about Laura or was just trying to cover up her friend's unacceptable deed. He desperately wanted to believe that Laura was innocent but how could he be sure? The girl had not even tried to contact him since after that day of the confrontation and that had made him believe that she really was guilty. If she wasn't, why didn't she call or at least text him again after that day? He sighed heavily, as he paced the space of his vast bedroom. His eyes kept drifting to his phone, as if telling him to pick it up and call her. But he couldn't. She had to make the first move since he was the victim here. He paused. But what if she really was the victim here? He sighed heavily again. He would need to hear from her own side. ❤❤❤Laura was quiet after her father had angrily asked about what he saw on the net. Someone had told him and he had confirmed it when he saw it on net, then wasted no time in call
Laura was glad that she had the full addresses of the two places he lived in. His penthouse in the center of town and his mansion of which she had seen pictures of. But she didn't know which of the houses he might currently be at, or if he was even at home. She navigated the car that she and Mirabel owned, smoothly along the roads until she finally got to the gigantic building that housed his multi million penthouse. She was stopped by a security man as she made her way towards the elevator. "Good evening Miss," the stern looking man acknowledged politely. "Who are you and how may I help you please?""Good evening, I'm Laura West." She replied. "I'm here to see Greg Williams.""Oh, Mr Williams, okay. Does he know you're visiting?"She gaped. "Uhm, yes he does.""I'll have to call his apartment to confirm, then."The man said as he reached for the telephone. "Uh, okay." At least if he picked and realized she was downstairs, there was no doubt that he would ask her to come upstairs.
Laura had felt various types of pain in her twenty three years of life but this was the ultimate. Greg's rejection had left her utterly broken, especially as she knew she hadn't done anything wrong to him. He didn't even want to listen to her side of the story. He couldn't wait to push her away.She thought about the lady she had seen at his house the other night and sighed through her tears. Why would Greg want her when he had such a stunningly beautiful and sexy woman as that girl? She was no match for her in beauty, experience, exposure and sophistication. He had hurt her big time. Her eyes narrowed in anger when the sources of her current predicament came into her mind. The heartless people she called her stepmother and sisters. "They will pay for this," she said tearfully. "They will pay." Her phone rang and she quickly rushed to it then sighed when the caller was not whom she wished it was. She smiled nevertheless. She could never ignore her Lizzy's call. "Hey girl.""L
Lizzy gently patted Laura who had been sleeping for a while in the darkened room. She hadn't gone back to her house since the day she had reciprocated Samantha's slap. She knew hell was eagerly waiting for her back home. "Wake up Lau." Lizzy said softly. "Dinner is ready.""I'm not hungry." Laura mumbled sleepily."But you have to eat." Lizzy insisted. "You can't continue like this.""I just don't feel like eating." Laura said stubbornly."You're getting up to eat, right this minute." Lizzy ordered and put on the room's bright lights causing Laura to wince as the sharp ray of light hit her face."What was that for?" She grumbled."Your call to come down for dinner." Lizzy replied with a smirk."But it's just 6:30!" Laura whined."I know darling, but I want us to be done with dinner and retire before my parents arrive. I don't want to eat with them.""But why?""They'll start asking me how and why my car got scratched."Laura smiled, despite herself. "You said it was Ronald's car tha
Laura gasped in shock and grabbed her robe from the chair, wrapping it around her. But she knew it was already too late because Greg had seen her naked body. Greg who had been lost in the sight of the most naturally gorgeous body he had ever seen quickly composed himself. He cleared his throat. "Sorry about that, I thought you were still in the bath. I knocked and there was no response.""It's alright." She said shyly.He nodded, rather absently. "The food has been brought in.""Okay, I'll be out in a few minutes." She said.After he left, Laura turned to look for her clothes, then sighted a white shirt that was obviously Greg's, spread neatly on the chaise lounge.She picked it up and brought it to her nose, deeply inhaling the heady scent of him and running her hand through the smooth material. On instinct, she took off the robe and put on the shirt, blushing on the exposure of her thighs and legs. She paused midway while buttoning up the shirt, wondering what she was doing.Did
Laura smiled for the umpteenth time as she recalled the first passionate time she had shared with Greg. She had felt wonderful. Really wonderful. And whole. And more of a woman. Especially with the realization that she could enjoy lovemaking like every other normal healthy woman. And Greg had pampered her like a queen and a child as well after they had decided to take a break from their sexercise the next day. It had been three weeks since their reunion and Greg had always been in contact. Calling her on phone, taking her to lunches and dinners, spending intimate time with each other. It had been a very blissful three weeks for her. The memories of their love makings always sent sweet shivers down the pit of her stomach and she always looked forward to the next time they'll be meeting. She did her best to avoid her step mother and sister. She always felt disgusted whenever she saw their faces and made a mental note to tell her father what they had done, when he returned and make s
Thank you so much for clicking on my book and following me through this journey. I’m so grateful. Please don’t forget to check out my other book Married But Single. I bet you’d love it even better. A brief Synopsis of the book below:"Mum, I can't marry him!" She exclaimed. "Didn't you see the way he looked at me the last time we had a meeting about this? He looked at me with disgust! That guy can never love me, mum.""He doesn't have to love you Annabelle," Monalisa replied. "Just focus on the money and fame his name will bring to us."Annabelle gasped, "What?" ***"If you expect me to fulfill any obligation as a...husband, to you, then think again."He said coldly. "We are married on paper only and I will never look at you as my wife!" Tears were beginning to form in her eyes. "To me, you are just a housemate."Her life was doomed. But she had no choice but to embrace what fate had brought her way. Her hot husband could not even stand the sight of her and she was bound to him for
She placed her hand on her protruded tummy and smiled as she watched her husband and son, their heads bent in concentration and with cute matching frowns on their foreheads as they went through the book before them. They were so similar, both in appearance and in character. She sighed in contentment.It had been a very blissful three years. Too blissful that she found it terrifying. It all seemed too good to be true at the initial stage but when she thought about everything she had gone through, she realized that she deserved every happiness that came to her. Her husband, her son and the baby in her womb who, she always felt couldn't wait to come into the world and meet it's family.A small cloud of sadness settled on her face as she thought of her step mother, Celina. After the confessions that fateful day, the police had arrived and arrested her and she was charged to court and was found guilty of attempted murder then was sentenced to many years of imprisonment. It had been a lo
"No way!" Celina boomed pacing up and down the living room."It is what it is, mother."Samantha said tearfully as she sat on the couch with a mug of tea in her hands, legs tucked in. "I will not allow this to happen!""It already has!" Samantha snapped in annoyance. "Greg already knows that Sydney is not his son and asides that, I believe he has regained his memory. It's over mum.""No it's not!" Celina said stubbornly. "This can't be over, not after everything we did to get you to that position.""Mum you don't understand," Samantha said wearily. "I already confessed to Greg that Sydney is not his! And there's no way he's gonna take me back after catching me in bed with that moron!""Well you are as much of a moron as that fool he caught you in his bed with." Celina snapped. "How could you be so stupid and careless? Sleeping with another man in his house, in his bedroom! What kind of stupidity is that?""I wasn't expecting him until in the evening!""And so what you foolish child?
Laura slid out of his suddenly limp embrace and excused herself, not missing the frown of confusion, curiosity and dread on his face.She went into the bedroom and to Cameron's cot and realized he was only having a bad dream. After calming him down and putting him to sleep again, she returned to the sitting room.He was standing with his back to her staring at a painting. His stance oozed power and sexual appeal and she mentally slapped herself for harboring immoral thoughts."That was a baby, wasn't it?" He asked in a murmur."Yes, obviously." She replied curtly."Whose child is it?" He asked, turning to face her."None of your business." She said nonchalantly.He took a dangerous step towards her. "Laura. Whose. Child. Was that?"She glared at him for seconds then rolled her eyes."Well since you're been insistent, he's my child."Time stood still as he froze at her announcement. Then he vaguely remembered that she did have a son. He had found out when he went through her profile
She was his.And he'd be damned if he let another man have her.How had things gotten to this? How was he on the verge of losing his one true love? He shook his head as he blamed the accident and loss of his memory for his current predicament.But most importantly. How was he going to win her back?He knew she could be headstrong and determined sometimes but he had to do all he could to get her back. She was the light in his dark world. And without her with him, his life would be empty. He would get her, his angel back.That aside for the meantime though. Right now he had to focus on getting that Samantha West out of his house and his life for good, he thought as he turned his car into his street.When he returned home the previous evening and met her, his subconscious telling him that the woman had been living with him for months in the name of being his fiancee, he was somewhat shocked and at the same time believed that it was true.But what he found difficult to accept was the c
Laura looked at Dexter with a small loving smile as he waited for an answer, though her mind was muddled and her heart was beating erratically. She sighed.She was tired. Tired of fighting for a lost cause. Who was she deceiving? Greg was lost to her forever. She could never get him back. She didn't even know whether she still wanted him after everything he had done to her. She had been patient. For over a year she had been hoping he would one day come to remember her for who she really was and what she had once meant to him. But all proved abortive and the worst of it all was the sack letter she had received from him after a night of intense lovemaking and worse still, the second dreaded letter that tore at her heart whenever she thought of it.The accident had reborn him into a beast.Anger at him beclouded her heart and she discovered there was no soft spot for him in her heart any longer.He was her son's father, yes. But that was all he would ever be to her.And he would never k
With an enthusiastic heart, Laura walked into the office building, a huge and radiant smile on her face on Monday morning.She had a reason to be happy, very much so. And the thought of that reason widened the smile on her face.Edna bumped into her when she rounded a corner and gave a wide happy grin of hers."Laura!""Hey Edna, good morning!" "Good morning Laura, you look quite happy this morning."Laura grinned. "That's because I am happy. And you, you look quite radiant and excited this morning. What's up?"Edna smiled dreamily. "Oh Laura, you won't believe this! Guess what?""Oh come on Ed don't keep me in suspense, just spill!"Laura said excitedly."Levi asked me to be his girlfriend, last night."Laura's eyes widened in excitement. "Omg! Girl, are you serious?" "I can't even believe it myself." Edna replied."Oh Edna, I'm so happy for you!" Laura grinned embracing her."Thanks Laura, I'm happy for me too." She smiled widely. "And thank you for encouraging me to go for what I
As early as five in the morning, he woke up. He blinked his eyes as he tried to get them adjusted to the little light coming in from the moon through the window. Then he felt softness pressed warmly against him and he looked down to behold her calm sleeping glorious face illuminated by the morning moonlight and everything that had happened the previous night and the early hours of the morning came rushing into his head.They had had sex. No. The better word was, they had made love. He had tried to take it as just casual sex during the deed, but the wave of emotions and passion that flowed between them was so intense that it couldn't be described as just casual sex. If felt so natural. So right. He didn't feel guilty which made him wonder why. No matter how hard he forced himself to feel guilty, something kept telling him that he hadn't done anything wrong.He looked at her again. She was so beautiful. And he wasn't just talking about her face.The sex had been earth shattering and h
Greg didn't know how Laura West managed to convince him to wait in her house before his mechanic comes to fix his car. He couldn't even find any issue with the car and it had been a long time since that particular car had had any issue.He had called the vehicle tech but the bastard had told him that he was out of town at the meantime but would be with him in the next one hour thirty minutes. One hour thirty minutes! Alone with this woman in a house! He considered getting a taxi and sending someone to come get his car tomorrow but why the hell wasn't he getting that taxi?A slender hand with a glass of water appeared in his vision and he blinked remembering that he had asked for the water."Thanks." He said as he collected the glass from her, making sure to avoid any contact with her. He didn't want want to take any risk."You're welcome Mr Williams." She replied slowly and sensually.God help him tonight.***Laura couldn't help the wide grin on her face as she went into the kitch
