Jimmy's action pacified the entire family but not Simon Blake. This girl called him by his full name and that's a humiliation on its own. How can she be so disrespectful? “You talk to father that way, you called him by his full name and rebuffed his final decision on your stupidity? How dare you humiliate my father this way?”Jimmy declared. Without another word, he pulled Magda by her wrist and took her into the bedroom. He shut the door and bolted it from within and forced her against the wall painfully? “You suddenly became senseless because you are pregnant. You're not the first person to be pregnant in this family but your pregnancy has succeeded in turning you into a maniac. He pressed himself against her to the wall and pinned her chin with his fingers, making her completely powerless and unable to resist him. “I didn't force the pregnancy on you, I didn't rape you either. We made love, we were happy doing it,it pleased us both, we got satisfied and the
Ava Leon closed her eyes painfully as she endured the torture he was given to her body. Tears ran down the sides of her eyes as she clutched the bedspread, to refrain herself from crying out. It was supposed to be something blissful. It was supposed to make her happy that finally, her husband spared her a glance. He had decided to bed her after two years of a quiet wedding. She was happy when he held her wrist and pulled her to himself. He held her tight and caressed her hair as he bent over and kissed her nape. She didn't resist him. She was happy that he touched her. She was super excited that he kissed her nape and she anticipated that he would kiss her lips and that's exactly what he did. He kissed her lips sweetly and she was happy. He didn't spare her time as he lifted her into the bed “I love you very much, more than my life” he mumbled drunkenly. She willingly took in his breath, despite the smell of alcohol. His breath and the smell of alcohol inte
It's midnight already and no one was in the corridor. Ava tiptoed into her room at the extreme end of the stairs and shut the door. Only after she bolted the door did she open herself to cry. She sobbed and sniffled. His last words before dozing off, played in her head. His heart will only beat for Lola. He said it repeatedly that he loves her. She must be a stupid woman to think that she could ever be loved and accepted by the Lester family. Was she an idiot to have thought Adrian, who despised her earlier that morning and wouldn't even respond to her greetings, would suddenly love her at night and make love to her simply because he was drunk? That serves her right to think too much. She sobbed. Her parents are poor and her dad had worked as the gardener to the Lester family for decades until he was involved in an accident and became bedridden. Two years ago, on her 18th birthday, she was told she would be getting married to the master of the Lester family. A
As suddenly as she bumped into him, he shoved her aside quickly like a flea and walked past her without a word. “I'm sorry” she quickly apologised. Her heart was beating fast and the memory of the previous night flushed through her mind. She went pale and quickly regained her composure. He walked away without turning to glance at her, he treated her like air, like she doesn't exist. People should use their eyes when they walk. That's why the eyes were located in the head and not the feet. How can she imagine that this fellow that just passed by her side, and treated her like a stranger was actually intimate with her the previous night? But it appears that he didn't remember the incident of the previous night. Was that really being drunk? Anyways, it's better for her that he doesn't remember or think it's the woman that he loves. But as Adrian passed by Ava, a scene flashed through his mind and he shook it off. Was he crazy that he would have the feelings
Soon, Ava set the table and everyone was seated except Adrian Lester. He soon descended the stairs in a blue designer suit and a custom made leather shoes. His facial looks were charming with his usual well treated comb over hairstyles and scruffy beard. His sharp penetrating grey eyes added to his handsomeness. Ava glanced at him briefly and quickly looked away. Adrian Lester is cute and that is not something one can argue about. But his heart seemed ugly. He is tall with a perfect physique that portrays him as someone who does a lot of work out. As Adrian Lester took his place at the dinning, Ava served him his sobering up soup but he tossed it aside and called “Ms, Alice” Everyone was surprised that he called Ms. Alice. If he wants anything, he could just say it and Ava will get it for him. But then, they all waited to know why he called the cook. Ms. Alice came over quickly and Adrian asked “the next time I requested a sobering up soup, bring it
Grandfather was furious and glared at Adrian and the latter did the same, staring at his grandfather without blinking an eye. They seemed to have similar temperament. Ava became worried and she shivered. None of Adrian's parents seemed to be concerned about what was transpiring between their son and his grandfather, especially his mother. Anna Lester, took a glass of juice and sipped from it without a frown. Obviously she's happy that things are taking this turn. “It will be over my dead body to see you marry another woman if not Ava Leon. She's your wife and I will ensure it remains so” Grandfather Lester declared. “Then you should be prepared to die soon because I am getting engaged to Lola in a few days time and I will ensure that this miserable marriage comes to an end” Adrian declared and stood up, walking out briskly in fury. “Enough Adrian!” Richard cautioned but it was too late. Adrian had walked away. He only chose to come in because he said h
Before noon, Patrick Connor strolled over to see his friend. He hadn't been answering his phone that morning hence he decided to see him after lunch. He got into the Lester conglomerate and Adrian had gone for a meeting. Clem told him that his friend will be through soon and he could feel relaxed in his office. Patrick Connor agreed and waited. It wasn't quite ten minutes later, Adrian Lester walked in with hooded eyes. His secretary stepped in after him and carefully placed his computer on his desk. His gaze was stone cold and he seemed to be unhappy. Patrick Connor had long gotten used to his friend's temperament. He just stared at him calmly. Adrian Lester is an arrogant dude who believes things should be the way he wants it. He doesn't expect anything less from an only child who was raised with all love and affluence. He'd always gotten what he wanted all his life. His parents dotes on him and his mom practically worships him. Why wouldn't he live that w
He had left the office and went to meet Lola. They had gone for dinner together and after it, they chose to chill out together at a lover's booth just adjacent the restaurant. Adrian's bodyguards were around and he felt intimate with Lola. It was supposed to be something casual,but the feelings of last night did not totally wash off Adrian's memory. He feels unhappy that he didn't get to fu*k her in his right mind but he did it in a drunken state. He kissed Lola all over and told her that he loves her. “About last night, Lola…” Adrian began and Lola placed her index finger on his lips. He paused and smiled. “Lovers don't have to talk about the times they spent together or the feelings of intimacy they shared because until I owe you to myself, nothing else matters to me” Lola said and kissed him. Until that day she gets fully what she wants, nothing else matters to her anymore. His wife could come and pick him from the club drunk, or she might even let his d

Adrian stood up quickly, he was going to look for her. He searched around and she'd left indeed. He dialed her cell phone but it was switched off. He sighed softly and decided he would talk to her by morning. He sighted Patrick seeing Amanda off. He waited until the latter drove off and went to meet Patrick. He saw his face glow with excitement and he smirked. “You've got yourself a new girlfriend eventually” Adrian stuttered, sounding sarcastic. He didn't expect that suddenly a woman had bonded with him and it's at grandfather's candle night. “She's a friend. Not a girlfriend in the context of your thoughts” Patrick snapped at him. What's wrong if he's been accompanied by a woman? “Whatever. It only surprises me that she sprouted out of nowhere to be by your side. And you obviously forgot that Jessica was here to keep you company at your grandfather's death…” Adrian was saying when Patrick interrupted him. “Shut it Adrian!” Patrick bellowed, his gaze unfrie
Patrick glanced at Adrian casually and looked away. No one gets really close to his mom and wouldn't fall in love with her. Maybe it's her charisma or it's simply magical. If Adrian of all people could start loving her, it only means that his mom would be on par with angels soon. Because hardly can anyone not love angels. “Luna is an amazing woman. She'd been here often these few days to check up on Father. And last night, she decided to stay up all night by his bedside when she saw his critical condition…” Richard stuttered. The women were busy, instructing the maids and supervising them. Things need to be put in order and a real touch of perfection is all they require. “Aunt Luna, we could just sit and watch. Hasn't the entire decoration been contracted out to a company already?” Aurora urged. The decorations of the mansion have been really given out to a company,now they just needed to await the beautiful work of art that would be done. Jessica kn
She'd stayed up all night by his bedside to administer his medication according to the hourly prescription. She stayed there along with his nurse. But at midnight, father opened his eyes weakly and said “You're the one here Luna?” He'd asked. Initially she'd wondered why he used those words. But then, she soon understood what he meant. “All these years, I'd always thought Anna will be by my bedside when I die,but she'd gone before me and here you are, in her place” Those were the last words of father to her. Luna sniffled and stood by the sidelines, beside her was Richard. They all were broken and for a while none could console the other. But there was something else that father said and Luna couldn't say it out loud. She'll keep it in her heart in order for her not to act selfishly. “The ambulance is waiting outside. Father's remains must be taken to the morgue” Richard informed. He would be taken there while they made preparations for his funeral.
It wasn't only Aurora who appeared to be sobbing,Clara Leon looked away hiding her tears. She pulled her hands off Aurora's grip and fetched a tissue paper. She stretched her hand and offered Aurora one and she took it, cleaning her tears too. Adrian knew both of them were sobbing,not for pains or sorrow,but for being pleased with him. He didn't mind their silent sob, he continued: “When grandfather insisted that I should marry your daughter, I thought he was being old fashioned,not considerate nor did he know the feelings of the heart. I thought I knew better but I was a fool. Grandfather was offering me my life saver and I didn't realize it. He was insisting that I hold onto an asset of an inestimable price,but I was mad at his dictates. That made me swear to never have anything to do with your daughter. I vowed to make her miserable and I swear, I did just that. But I was privileged to be given a second chance. It was late when I realised that I had hurt a
Lena hurried into the office and saw the frosty gaze of her boss, glaring at her furiously. What had she done to make him feel so furious with her? “How did this trash get in here?” He demanded, his index finger pointing to the beautiful flowers that had found itself in the trash can. “Miss Jessica brought it for you and since you're both acquaintances, I let her drop it on your desk…” Lena was explaining when Patrick yelled at her. “Do I look like I am an acquaintance of Jessica? How dare you allow that woman into my office?” His tone was filled with contempt for the one who brought the flowers. Lena couldn't find her voice to answer Patrick Connor. She saw them both together the previous day and even went to lunch together. They're not lovers but they really get together. “I'm sorry sir” Lena apologised. She didn't expect that from yesterday to that morning, their closeness had become history. Something has gone wrong and she was wondering too, why woul
Nancy just held Charlotte's hands and nodded. She couldn't find her voice. What can she say, her daughter is there for her. She's a fulfilled woman. “I'm sorry everyone for this messy atmosphere. It isn't Magda's fault at all, it was mine. I shouldn't have fallen in love with a she-devil. I shouldn't have allowed my feelings and emotions to blind me, not to have realized what kind of woman I married. It was mine fault, I asked for your forgiveness” Jimmy apologized. He turned to his sobbing mother and sister in-law, who kept wiping the tears off his mother's face “I'm sorry sister in-law. I didn't know that Magda had lost her sanity. Please forgive me for this accusation and humiliation that woman brought to you. Take it out on me however you want but please, don't hate me for this” he pleaded. The atmosphere became a bit less tense. Jimmy glanced at his brother and saw him, with a cold gaze looking away. “Now listen to me everyone so that you can be a wit
Santiago glared at her in displeasure. How can she say no? How can she feel comfortable living in a place where she's been humiliated and insulted? Didn't she know he was doing that for her, that she should remain the dignified wife of Santiago Blake? Magda has turned into a Hyna and only attacks her from every side. “You will leave here. I am doing this for you. Can't you see how disrespected you've become by Magda,the senseless woman Jimmy trapped himself with? I can't let you stay another hour here. I can't take it if anyone tries to hurt you again. So to keep my mental health intact, we're leaving, you and I this…” Santiago was saying and taking Charlotte's wrist to make her leave with him but she pulled her hand off aggressively. “I said no, Santi. I am not leaving to anywhere. Is it too difficult for you to understand?” Charlotte replied, wiping her tears off and staring at her husband. Santiago is the best man on earth. She loves him more than her
Jimmy was startled and stared at his bride. What is going on, she's instigating a misunderstanding between his elder brother and himself. She's talking to Santiago and telling him lies that he'd been having affairs with his wife? Both Charlotte and Nancy exchanged glances. They've never seen such senselessness before. Right before their eyes, she accused her husband and sister in-law of infidelity? Charlotte was lost for words. What the hell is going on? Does she have anything against her that she couldn't think of something else to defame her except to accuse her of cheating on her husband with his brother? They don't know what Santiago said but Magda hung up and glared at Jimmy with irritation and turned to Charlotte staring at her as if she was going to strip her naked with her eyes. “What has this family done to you that you want to ruin our peace and happiness? You have to provide evidence to this accusation before every member of this family” Nancy stuttere
