At a restaurant on the elite side of the city, the red-haired lady who just round up with her evening shift removed her apron while still on her uniform. She hung the apron on the staff hanger when her little phone began to ring.
“ Gracie” she called to hear the worried voice of her friend speak at the other end of the phone.“Adele, I need you, I don’t know what I did to my client. Please you should come to the hotel, don’t call the cops…..“ calm down Grace, what happened and tell me the name of your hotel.” Adele immediately carried a paper to write it t down.“Western Hotel Room 2……..8,” Grace said as the signal began to break.“Room 2 what Gracie, I can’t hear you” Adele worriedly said as she tried to correct the number of the room.“ 2….8” The phone bumps for Adele to sigh.“Goodness,” she worriedly said as she didn’t know if it was 28 or 208. She knows it’s two, a middle number before eight but she doesn’t know which exactly so she decided to go with room 208.“ Mary, I’m out,” she said rushing out of the restaurant to go help her friend. She just hoped her friend hadn’t done something to all those pot-belly rich men who love carrying girls from the bar as she’s a bartender.Inside the elegant royal-like mansion on the eastern side of York City, the bright light of the Study room made the visible face of the young man who was staring at his mother with anger.Harden rubbed his dark hair backward before he took the tea his mother brought to him and sipped from it.“ you can’t be mad at me and still don’t want to sip from your favorite chamomile tea. Honey, I don’t want to force this marriage thing on you but I’m scared.” Maria said pushing her blonde hair back of her ear with a smile after seeing her son take the tea she brought with some arousal pills in it.“I just don’t like the way you always speak about it mom, I’m not Dad, I’m not going to die yet. I will find a lady when I’m ready to start a family, Lisa is not to my taste Mom stop arranging family dinners without my consent. So stop….Harden rubbed the back of his neck as he wasn’t feeling like his usual self.“Mom… did you do something to my tea?” He asked quietly for Maria to sigh.“Honey, Lisa is in your bedroom, I know if I don’t take action you won’t see how eager we need you to marry and give us children. Your grandmother and I need kids around honey, you aren’t feeling good so you can….“Mom!” Harden hit the table standing up in anger.“How could…..He closed his eyes because his body was getting hotter, it was a feeling he had never felt before, and the urge was getting strong. Immediately he rushed out of the study rushing downstairs.Maria rushed after her son scared he would let the opportunity go down the drain.“ harden!!” She scream at her son whose driver just drove out of the mansion.“Shit.. shit.” She cursed calling her son's assistant.“Good ev…..“ follow Harden now and send me his location” she screamed at the phone to her son's assistant who immediately tracked his boss's phone as he was at the company rounding up since his boss was having dinner with his family.On the busy road, the driver didn’t know what to do as his boss's body was looking red already.Harden swallowed hard as he inwardly cursed at what his mother did to him.The driver stopped at a hotel, and immediately he opened his boss's door and helped him out.“ shit” Harden caused as he walked into the hotel trying hard to control himself. His body was getting hot and he knew if he stayed at the mansion, he might sleep with the girl his mother had been trying hard for him to marry. Immediately the driver booked a room, after helping Harden walk into the room he sighed.“Switch off the light and leave,” Harden said falling on the bed groaning. The driver sighed as he did as told and left.Immediately The driver left, he passed by Adele who was looking at the room number until she stopped at room number 208.She wanted to call her friend but she stopped to not alert whatever was going on, she clicked the door open and walked in quietly and she whispered her friend's name.“Grace” she whispered to Harden who was lying in a cold sweat trying to cover himself in his hot feeling to turn towards the shadow of the girly whisper.“Grace” Adele called scared to on the light.“Stop there!” His cold voice said for Adele to stop on her track opening her green eyes in the dark as she covered her mouth in fear.Harden stood up and switched on the bedside lantern.“Ah,” Adele gasped seeing the masculine figure in cold sweat breathing like a beast ready to devour the little lamb in his front.He walked towards her as he sniffed her scent making Adele stiff on her track as she closed her eyes in fear. Not just her fear now but the fear of what the devilish-looking man close to her did to her friend.“ I can’t control it” he whispered breathing hard as he sniffed the hair from the stranger standing in his front.“Please” she covered her eyes and pleaded for her life.“Help me release my struggles” he groaned Trying hard not to lash out at the stranger girl.Adele frowned as she noticed he was not sounding like a blood-tasty killer but instead, like a man trying to swallow his sexual urge.Immediately she moved back as she switched on the light and Harden's red body in cold sweat came into view Adele gasped as her green eyes opened wide, Then she noticed she was in the wrong room.“Please” Harden groaned as he raised his head to look at the red-haired girl who looked at him.“ I’m sorry, I'm in the wrong room,” Adele said as she rushed to leave, Harden held her hand.“ it’s killing me,” he said for Adele to stop. She’s no saint or a virgin to avoid him and he’s so hot-looking but Grace is in danger and she needs to leave to help her.“ I’m dying” he whispered for Adele to close her eyes as she turned towards him.She thought five minutes of pleasure could help him release himself and she will leave.She dropped her bag and undressed herself and Harden didn’t take his time to look at the face of the stranger girl in his hotel room before he lashed on her mouth kissing her so hard while he carried her towards the bed.“Ah,” Adele moan after she felt Harden's hot mouth on her breast sucking her so rough.“Fuck” she moans already feeling his hard erected member already inside of her. Fast and hard, Harden hit the stranger trying to relieve the intense pleasure his body was feeling.Adele moaned as she was being hit in and out so fast and hard. At that moment she regretted making that decision of five minutes of pleasure to help the hot-looking stranger.At the front of the room, Simon who gets to his boss's hotel room immediately leaves after hearing the intense moan coming from the room.“ he’s busy” he called his Chairlady who frowned.“ what do you mean he’s busy?” Maria asked frowning for Simon to sigh.“ he’s with a lady,” he said for Maria to frown.“Send me the address” she coldly said and hung up for Simon to sigh as he wondered what was going on. He sent the hotel name and room number.He knows the driver is going to get scolded for renting a lowly hotel like this for their boss. He went out to wait for his chairlady while letting his boss have all the pleasure he wanted.Inside the room, Adele moaned until she couldn’t keep up with his strength making her collapse after cuming multiple times, and still the stranger didn’t stop.Harden finally groans releasing his seeds inside the stranger after his satisfaction. He fell to the bedside and fell into deep sleep.Adele's little phone began to ring, a call from her friend but after multiple rings with no response, the call went off.At the front of the hotel, Maria looked at the building in her front in disgust as she looked at the driver who brought her son there.“ how dare you bring my son to such a lowly hotel. You will pay for this” she angrily said walking into the hotel with Simon and her bodyguard who walked up to Harden's room.Simon opened the door and rushed to cover the naked body on the bed as Maria walked in sighing.“ take him home,” she said for the bodyguard to walk towards Harden as they took his clothes and took him away.“ who’s she?” She asked Simon to look at the red-haired girl who was in deep slumber.“I’ve never seen her,” he said for Maria to scoff.“ he preferred sleeping with a stranger than an Elegant lady who’s ready to give him her all. Harden” she said sighing when her eyes caught Adele's clothes. She bent down to pick it up.“ a waitress” she scoffed throwing the clothes on the floor.“All this lowly sluts, gosh… Harden is frustrating me” she grinned her teeth.“ make sure you send someone to spy on her, I want to know her aim of taking advantage of my son. I know Harden doesn’t have such lowly and dirty taste” she said with disgust as she walked away leaving Simon who sighed looking at the sleeping Adele before he left closing the room door….The knock on the door woke Adele up, she groaned and weakly sat up and found out she was in a hotel room.“Fuck” she cursed rubbing her scattered hair as she looked around and the stranger is gone. She looks inside her blanket and finds herself still naked.The knock began to hit again for Adele to quickly stand up, and rush on her clothes before carrying her bag. She rushed out of the room for the cleaner to look at her as she rushed out.“Grace” she called crying as she regretted the decision she took last night.She called her friend's number as she stopped a taxi to their apartment.After multiple rings Grace picked.“Where have you been?” her husky voice asked for Adele to burst into tears.“ I’m so sorry Grace, where are you?” She asked to hear her friend's voice.“Home,” she said and hung up for Adele to rub her scattered hair crying.“ Adele, what did you do?” She said crying. The taxi stopped at an apartment for Adele to come out and pay her bills before she rushed into their
It’s been a week since Adele confirmed her pregnancy, she continues her work as a waitress because deciding to keep the child means extra expenses and she doesn’t know who the father is to tell him she’s having his baby. She’s three weeks gone and she felt easily tired and weak apart from the morning sickness.She hung her apron on her stand as she was done with her shift for the day.“Can you come by morning tomorrow, Samira just called she won’t be able to make the morning shift or the evening because of her sick father” the manager said to Adele who sighed.“Extra pay?” She asked for the manager to nod.“Sure,” he said smiling at Adele who nodded her head.“Ok,” she said knowing she needed the money.Adele left the front of their restaurant as she walked to the bus stop to wait for the next bus ride.“Goodness,” she sighed looking for where to sit as she was feeling dizzy and nauseous. She carried her little phone to call Grace to find out if she would be coming home for the night.
It’s been nine months since Adele disappeared, Grace has searched everywhere possible but nothing or a trace of her best friend. She filled out a missing person report and after two months it died down like she never asked for her friend to be found.It was dark already, Grace didn’t take her night shift as she was ill. Since Adele left, life seems meaningless for her but she wants to keep trying to at least know what happened to her friend. She watched their photos together on her phone and tears began to roll down. “ I hate you, I fucking hate you, Ade. Why did you just disappear without a clue? Did you even have me in your mind? You know you all I got” she said as tears began to rush down her eyes.Grace kept going through their memories until she fell asleep.At the wooden house, the sweet melody of the wood birds sounds so melodious, Inside the beautiful room, a red-haired lady sat close to her window, her big round stomach grew every day like she was being stocked with food and
Martha couldn’t express the joy of seeing the two babies in their crib. Even though the baby girl had a touch of red hair mixed with her black and green eyes, she still saw her son in her face.“They both look so much like Harden,” Martha said closing her mouth in excitement.“Yes ma’am,” Simon said sighing.“By morning, we will introduce them to their father, he will be upset but you don’t know anything. You are clueless” Martha looks at Simon who nods his head.“Take the girl to the hospital, deposit her funds,” Martha said as she smiled at her twin's grandkids.She sighs as she looks at the maids.“Bring them along, let’s introduce them to their father,” She said walking away for the maids to carry the two babies and follow her.Adele's unconscious body was cleaned up and transferred to the hospital, Simon carried an envelope of money and a hospital address to Adele and Grace's little apartment. It was dawn, Grace heard a knock on their door in the early hours of the day which mad
Harden looked at the two sleeping babies, he couldn’t believe all that just happened, he was a father to twins birthed by a woman he never met after a nightstand. It’s all just too real for him. Now he understands why he searched for her and it was like she never existed. He doesn’t even trust his assistant anymore to continue the search for what happened to the girl.“Have you decided a name for them?” He heard his mother talk which made him turn towards her.“Tell me the truth Mom, please don’t let me find out” Harden pleaded with his mother because he’s scared he might not control his rage if he finds out about what she did.“About what honey? I told you the truth already. She died after…“I’ve seen her corpse already. I just…. I just want to know, why she came to you and not me” he said for Martha to sigh.“She was scared you would reject her. She believes I’m a woman and a mother, I will want the best for my son and my grandkids too. I’m just happy that the kids we’ve been wantin
At the garden Martha tried to calm Lisa, she didn’t expect Harden to say such words to her in the presence of his grandmother.“He thinks I’m a whore aunty, I work my ass off to be where I am today and he thinks I slept around for it. My mother died leaving me with my dad who has no time, I grew up In loneliness and chose to let the world know me and he thinks I get there by sleeping around” she said for Martha to sigh.“ he doesn’t mean anything he is saying, he just wants to push you away,” Martha said for Lisa to clean her tears.“ I love him, Aunty, I love Harden but he just….“ Then quit your job to show him how much you love him.” Old lady McCall's voice sounded for Lisa to fall into silence.“ Mother, why will you say that?” Martha asked the old woman to look at Lisa.“ He doesn’t hate you like you think. He only believes what he knows. He knows that you do what he said you are doing for shows and he can’t allow such a person to be his wife or care for his kids. To prove that w
It’s been two months, and Harden has no choice but to accept to marry Lisa after his grandmother and mother have pressured him and also threatened him with the family company, he won’t have bothered but his grandmother is strict on rules. He won’t want to see his father struggle to be in the hands of his murderers because of his selfishness. It was Saturday and it was like all other Saturday for Harden but just the fact he was tying the knot with a girl he disliked spoilt it while for Lisa like every woman's dream, she was excited about going to walk the aisle to be wedded.The McCall event arena was decorated, with beautiful flowers as important guests were arriving as the wedding was limited to only business partners and families. The paparazzi were outside trying to get shot on big shots arriving.Albert McCall, welcomed the guest into the hall with a smile as he’s like the father of the groom since his brother is late. A young man younger than Harden walked towards the elderly m
Adele sat in front of the manager nervously, she rubbed her hands looking everywhere except the face of the man in her front.“Adele Henderson, you said is your name?” The man asks for Adele to nod.“You don’t look like…..A call from the chairwoman's office cut his words short.“Yes ma’am” he picked up and responded.“Right away,” the man said and hung up.“Suzi, take this lady to the chairwoman's office, she needs to clean the mess Mrs. Lisa McCall just cause,” he said for his assistant to nod while Adele looked confused.“Go with her, the chairwoman might retain you if she likes your service,” he said for Adele to awkwardly follow the assistant as they left the office.Inside the elevator taking them upstairs to the chairwoman's office, as the dingdong of the elevator sounds, the assistant turns towards her.“ sluggishness is what the madam hates so much,” the assistant said for Adele to nod as they both walked to the office. The secretary stopped them while the assistant left Adel
“Mrs. McCall,” he called out, prompting Adele to turn. He handed her a small red box. “What is it, Harden?” she asked, collecting the box. Opening it, she found a remote key inside. “Congratulations on your vacation home, Mrs. McCall,” Harden said, watching her gasp as her eyes widened. “Harden!” Adele burst into tears, shaking her head as she glanced between the key and their surroundings. “This is too much,” she whispered, overwhelmed. Harden chuckled and pulled her into a hug. “It’s yours, honey—your vacation home. I’m just a guest here,” he replied, as Adele cried even harder. “I don’t deserve this, Harden. It’s too much,” she said, and Harden gently wiped away her tears. “Yes, you do. You’re my wife, even though we haven’t gone to the altar yet,” he said with a soft laugh. “You gave me kids I never imagined having at this point in my life. You stood by me until I was back on my feet. Yes, Adele, you deserve this. It’s yours. Do you think you don’t?” he asked, and in respon
At the McCall family mansion, Gwen sat on the balcony, her mind swirling with thoughts. Maria had left earlier for the elite women’s meeting, and Nana had gone for her daily check-up. Since last week, ever since that night with Harden, Gwen’s body hadn’t felt right. For the past three days, she had been feeling nauseous and weak. She wondered if she had fallen ill from being locked in that dark place Harden had imprisoned her in.Sipping her juice, Gwen tried to push away the uneasy feeling. Just then, the butler approached her.“Madam,” he called, causing Gwen to look up.“Yes?” she responded, her brow furrowed.“There’s an elderly man outside the villa asking to see you,” the butler said politely.“Who is it?” Gwen asked, confused.“Mr. Martinez,” the butler replied, watching as Gwen’s expression changed to one of shock.“What? How did he find this place?” she gasped, hearing her father’s name.“Tell him I’m not here,” she ordered quickly.The butler nodded. “Yes, madam. I will let
The room was silent. Adele’s shoulders had been tense for a while, but she eventually relaxed, her eyes fixed on Harden. The thought of her being the reason for his issues with his best friend ran through her mind. She had also caused him to keep his mother away from his home. A small smile crept onto Adele’s face as she shook her head.“No, baby,” she whispered, prompting Harden to frown.“No?” he asked, and Adele nodded as she looked at him.“He has asked me, but I told him he’s mistaken, and I don’t have a sister,” she said, and Harden nodded in response.“Get ready for bed. I have some work to do,” he said, turning around, but Adele held his hand.He turned to look at her. Her green eyes stared at him, making him smile.“Make me sleep,” she whispered, causing Harden to chuckle.“I should make you sleep, hmm?” he chuckled again, pecking her hands while slowly bringing his head closer to her face.“I want to take you somewhere tomorrow,” he whispered, and Adele nodded in response.“
As Harden approached the lounge, he noticed Adele speaking to Aiden. He walked closer, catching the tail end of their conversation. There was an unusual tension in the air.“What’s going on here?” Harden asked, his voice stern, as he observed them both fall silent. Adele turned towards him, and he frowned upon noticing the faint bruise on her lips.“What happened to your lips?” he asked, concern lacing his voice.“Nothing, baby. I’ll be upstairs. I won’t be joining the dinner,” Adele replied softly, forcing a smile before she turned and walked away. Harden watched her go, his frown deepening, then turned back to Aiden.“Speak. What is going on?” he demanded.“Nothing serious,” Aiden replied, smiling to cover his unease. “I thought I had seen her at the fashion house before, but she said it wasn’t her.”Harden scoffed, his expression hardening. “I hope so. Don’t make me doubt you, Aiden. You know I respect what we have—don’t make me draw lines. She’s my wife, do you understand? If it’s
Grace stood frozen, her eyes wide with shock as her hand flew to her cheek, still stinging from the slap Adele had just delivered. Her disbelief quickly turned into fury, and with a growl, she lunged at Adele, but Austin was faster, stepping between them and holding Grace back.“Get off me! Let me go!” Grace shrieked, struggling against Austin’s grip. “How dare you slap me, you witch!”Adele scoffed, her voice dripping with disdain. “I’ll slap you again and again, Grace. I’ve seen this jealousy in you since we were five years old. You’ve always wanted what’s mine, always furious when men preferred me over you. Is spreading lies about me all you can do now that you can’t make me leave Harden? I expected more from your petty, envious self.”Grace’s face twisted in rage, but Adele pressed on, her tone unwavering. “I’ve always loved you, Grace. I’ve always put you first. I broke up with anyone you didn’t like, and quit jobs you got me fired from, all because you couldn’t stand to see me s
The sun shone brightly, and its rays fell on a curly-haired girl sleeping, due to the sudden bright sunshine, Gwen turned away and then she slowly opened her eyes. Immediately she sat up looking around.She was back to her home, she immediately came down from her bed rushing outside. Her father just finished preparing breakfast when he saw her. “Papa” she called for her father to sigh. “What happened? Why am I here?” She asked looking confused. “You’ve been sleeping for a day,” he said for Gwen to frown. “A day?” She asks for her father to nod. “Breakfast is ready?” He said for Gwen to frown. “How did you find me papa?” She asks for her father to look at her. “I came from the store at night to see your dirty body lying unconscious at the door. Gwen, you are all I have please, I don’t want you to be hurt. Leave those rich people alone,” her father said for Gwen to shake her head. “Papa give me your phone, I want to speak with Sebastian,” she said for her father to shake
The evening was warm, it could be cold outside but in the cabin of La Cuisine a five-star restaurant, was warm because Harden couldn’t get his hands off his wife. “ Harden, common” Adele chuckled as Harden was kissing her neck. “What?” He murmured for Adele to sigh. “The food has been served for almost fifteen minutes now, it will get cold Harden,” Adele said for Harden to look at her, “you don’t want me huh?” He asks for Adele to sigh. “ of course I do but not in a public place. “ I’ve waited five years to be on my feet and be all over you but now, you don’t want me,” he said plumping his lips while he sat up for Adele to sigh. “It’s not like that, we are in a restaurant,” she said for Harden to turn towards her. “ and so? Even in a public bathroom, I don’t mind” he said this time his slim masculine fingers began to unbutton her office pants and then slowly zip them down. “ Harden are you this shameless?” she asked looking at him while he focused on her abdominal a
Adele was dressed in a beautiful white dress, her curly red hair was gelled and packed backward with a center parting, and her little to no makeup let her pale skin look very beautiful. Harden smiled looking at her, he arranged his wristwatch before he bent down to help her buckle her white shoe. Adele smiled as she looked at him, after he was done, he knelt on one knee opening a red box with a diamond ring. “Be mine forever” he whispered for Adele to blush, she gave Harden her ring finger and he fixed the ring in it before he stood up. “It’s beautiful,” she said for Harden to smile. “Just like you,” he said pecking the ring on her finger. “Let’s go” he gave her his hands which she held on to and they left. Downstairs, Zia and Zayn were on their assignment when they saw their parents walking down. “Dad” she called running towards him. “Honey how are you” Harden hugged his daughter who kept hugging him. “Are you going out?” She asks for Harden to nod. “Yes, you both b
Sandra was shocked by Harden's words, she smiled standing then walked towards Harden. “ Mr McCall, did I do something wrong?” She asks for Harden to look at his butler. “Now,” he said for his butler to ask Sandra to come with him. “Please, if I should leave I deserve to know why,” she said for Harden to nod. “ I have kids and letting them sit around someone with an inappropriate dress is not among my parental training so leave,” Harden said for Sandra to sadly nod. She looked at her red mini handless gown. “ It's a family dinner, not a club night” Harden added for Sandra to sigh “Harden” Adele called walking downstairs. After Harden bath her, she couldn’t sleep deep anymore. As she came down the stairs she saw Sandra which made her frown. “ good evening Mrs McCall” Sandra greeted. “ Harden what’s going on? I thought we were having Dinner and not a club” she said for Harden to nod. “But Dad… “ quiet Zia, I’m still upset with you,” he said angrily at his daughter.
