Have you ever thought you knew someone but found out things were not how it seemed? Emily Riverstone finds out that her new boyfriend happens to be the owner of a multi billionaire company and had been hiding his indentity from the world and even from her. Will she be able to overcome the consequences that comes with knowing the truth or will it be the death of her.
View MoreRiverstone gritted his teeth as he stared at Emily, he had not expected Emily to slap him hard across the face, he was tempted to slap her right back but he refrained from doing it because he knew his actions would come with consequences as everyone in the room seemed to be looking at him in annoyance and disappointment.Well, what did they all expect? They carried on with their life like he didn't exist, like he wasn't part of the family or that he didn't contribute one bit to them being where they were right now. He had tried to get on with his life but by the time he was back things had changed, his house rent had expired and he was forced to live on the street for days, he tried to reach out to his wife Rose but each time she turned him down. Eventually, he had to look for an alternative, one that could give him money and take him back to his comfortable lifestyle."Alright young man, let's go inside and check on the new toy Dada bought for you," Chloe smiled at Nathan as she hel
"What the hell is he doing here?" Chloe barked staring at her mother in annoyance, she didn't even want to look at Riverstone again, the sight of him brought back memories into her head that she had started to forget about because she hadn't seen him or heard from him for a very long time.How could her mother do something like this? What was she thinking about bringing this man here? Emily was not aware of this, neither was Leonard because if Emily was, she would have had him kicked out the moment she set her eyes on him.After everything he had done to them, especially her mother, her mother was still able to bring him here."Calm down Chloe, I was going to discuss it with you and Emily, I just hadn't figured out how to put it to you both that me and your father are....""Don't call him my father," Chloe interrupted angrily. "After everything he has done to you...even if you wanted to see him so bad why did it have to be in this house... how did you even get him into this house?""Ch
Bella walked down the stairs to the dining as she noticed the dining was set with all sorts of delicacies Matilda and Cam were sited waiting for her to take a seat. Cam stood up when she was close by and helped her with her seat."Thank you," she appreciated him sitting down. She didn't know why but of late she was becoming selective about what she ate and the cooks just had to make different dishes and hope she at least picked one.It was so bad that the last time she told Matilda to make her rice and when the rice was eventually brought to her she refused to eat it.Sometimes she would cry for no reason at all, it was comforting to her that Cam was now with her and keeping a close eye on her and when he wasn't Matilda was there. She wanted to ask him what had happened to Gary or what was the nitwit's name but she decided not to bother about it as she didn't want to upset him more. He seemed angry at himself about the whole situation.She still couldn't believe her father would do s
"Hey, careful," Stone motioned Chloe slowly holding her as they stepped into the house. He stepped in staring at Emily and Cam discussing, it seemed they were aware he had stepped into the compound but decided to not leave what they were doing until they noticed Chloe was in serious pain.Emily rushed to Chloe's side realizing the bandage on her waist, what the hell happened to her? They had been gone for over two weeks and she is back worse than ever."What the hell happened to you?""Kyle stabbed me," Chloe cried."Kyle?" Emily said not believing any of it"let's get her to her room."Emily said to Stone as they held on to her leaving Cam alone, when they got to Chloe's room, Emily informed them that there was a party going on as regards the partnership between Dark Age and Klar and that Chloe and Stone might be home alone but first she had to inform Leonard."I won't be staying over," Stone announced."Okay," Emily replied."No, stay here. Please.." Chloe said not letting go of his
- BACK AT IVY'S MANSION -"Where is Chloe?" Stone asked Astrid and hoped he wouldn't ask again; he didn't care about all the nonsense she had going on with Ivy. Now that he knew Ivy was alive, he had something to prove to Emily. He had spent his life taking orders from Travis, and he wasn't going to continue taking orders.Chloe was here for him even though she tried not to say it; she was here for him, and he couldn't just leave her like that after Astrid just told him she was stabbed by Kyle. Why would Kyle stab her? Didn't she have a thing going on with Kyle, and even if he didn't like her, it wouldn't have warranted him to stab her, or was there more to the story that he wasn't getting at all?"Stone, listen to me," Astrid pleaded as Stone dashed out of the bathroom, and it dawned on Astrid that her plan in her head wasn't going to happen as Stone was not going to pay any attention to her."Don't let me repeat myself.""She is in the warehouse," Astrid said as she watched Sto
- LEONARD'S MANSION -- LEONARD'S OFFICE -"Dark Age are willing to accept the partnership deal," Mark informed Leonard in his office. He had driven here immediately after he got the paper work.Leonard stared at the paperwork they had mailed to the company, and it was well-detailed. Whoever wrote it took their time in such a way that every offer that looked unprofitable had a comeback to back it up.Dark Age and Klar had been in the fashion industry for so long that, at some point, Klar had offered to buy Dark Age. Buying companies wasn't a new thing for Leonard, especially companies he felt were going to ruin his business or become a competition for him in the future.All he had to do was find out how much their company would cost and double the price. This way, the price was too good for anyone in their right minds to refuse it, but this company, Dark Age, had refused his offer without a reason, and even when he tripled it, they still rejected it, which only angered him.He had imm
"Hey!" Astrid yelled at Chloe as they pushed her into the ward. Where the fuck was Stone, and why wasn't he answering his darn phone? Hopefully, nothing will happen to Chloe, she thought. As she paced around in the reception with her blood-stain gown, she could see someone staring at her."What?" she asked as the person looked away. She rolled her eyes and tried to dial Stone's number again, and this time it went through, but she couldn't hear him properly; all she could hear were faint sounds of gunshots. Where was he? Was he okay? Did he even pick up the call, or was it a mistake?"Get Chloe out of the hospital now," she said, finally hearing Stone's voice."Hello," she said, but the phone disconnected. What did he mean by getting Chloe out? Was he in trouble? How did he know she was in the hospital? Astrid stared at her phone and dialed his number again, but this time the line didn't go through."Fuck!" she yelled, going to the reception desk to talk to the nurse. "How long will t
"Kyle," Chloe said, staring at him as they swayed around the dance floor swiftly. She kept her eyes fixed on him, but the young man didn't say anything, or was she wrong? She was not wrong because she knew what she was feeling right now, and only someone had that effect on her. How is he here now? She knew he was alive, but he had been in hiding for so long that Thana and she were forced to hide Nathan. At some point, they felt that he didn't even want Nathan, and he never reached out to them again.The music was finally coming to an end as the man pulled her closer to him. He placed his lips on her ear, and she could feel his breath on the tip of her ear and a tingling erupt in her stomach. It was Kyle."You shouldn't be here, Anna," she heard him say as the music came to an end before she could process what he had said. The music came down as the lights went dark, then back to its normal color as Kyle was nowhere to be found. Chloe stared around, perplexed, looking for any sign of
Chloe looked around through her lashes; she could see someone familiar again. She stared towards Stone, and he was dancing with Astrid, and the bitch seemed to know how to dance better than her. She watched Astrid sway her waist to the music as she leaned in, whispering something into Stone's ear as he burst into laughter instantly with his head laid back.Chloe wondered what Astrid had told him that was so funny that he wanted to cry from laughing. She could also be funny if that was what he was into."Someone seems to have your man on a hook."'He is not mine,' Chloe was about to say, but she couldn't because Travis thought that they were both here to spend time together. She had to play her part and keep Travis out of what was about to occur here, but from the situation, it seemed she had to get to that person because Stone and Astrid seemed focused on whatever nonsense they were discussing.The music tone changed again, and this time Chloe swayed into the arms of the person her in
"We can’t work with that cloth, that’s just it,” Bella said throwing away the cloth Emily just picked from her wardrobe, she jumped up from the bed and walked to the wardrobe to see what they could wear to the party.Today was Emily’s birthday party and Bella had offered to celebrate it for her, she had invited her over to her hostel to select any clothes of her choice from her wardrobe but Emily was being cautious of what she was selecting.Emily didn’t come from a wealthy family, her father was a well-known debtor and her mother and sister lived the fake life with the money their father was able to win from his gambling.Emily was the total opposite, she didn’t know how to pretend not to be what she wasn’t, she worked hard to put food on the table and even get herself into school.
