2024-10-29 19:42:56I returned home from an hectic journey, only to find out that I had been betrothed to someone I didn't know. I was furious and was ready to give a no at that time but I didn't still.
I'm Sophia Grace Devale, who was in that time, very rude, abusive and bossy.
"You still are." I heard my husband's voice from the inside and frowned.
"What happens to the 'darling you have changed' part?" I yelled back. I once was rude and bossy, I'm not now.
Well I was in the parlour with Alex, playing cards with him as usual although feeling a lot of discomfort at the level of my abdomen because I am heavily pregnant with twins.
I finally got married to the man in question and please don't ask me questions. "How did it happen, mom?" My son asked me and I turned to him. "Alex let's finish what we started." I told him.
Soon Tony came out of the kitchen, holding a tray in his hands. I was busy laughing at him as I discovered that he had wrapped his face and covered all the parts of his body with a thick blanket.
"You look like you were freezing of cold." I mocked. He ignored me and sat down bedside me, taking off everything from his body and murmuring to himself.
"I don't want to ever enter the kitchen. Never again!!" He cried and I laughed.
My laughs were interrupted by the horns of a vehicle. "Let me go and check." I said trying to stand up when he pushed me back to the chair. "Where do you think you are going to?" He asked me with a joking face but full of care.
"But t_"
"You are heavy and you want to stand up from this chair. I will not let it happen, never." He said and walked out of the house leaving me to my blush and smiles.
In five years of marriage, I've never experienced what many do experience as hardships and fights. We argued at times but we always solved our problems. He always got the issues fixed even when he never started the fight.
He came back inside the house with his parents, my dad and stepmother, Cindy, Cynthia, Henry. God! The whole family was here in my house. What a surprise!!
"You have a terrible habit of standing on one spot when you see some guests." Stepmother yet my mom remarked.
"Mom, I'm actually seated and you don't want Tony to finish you, do you?" I asked and she shook her head. She rushed to sit beside me but Cindy and Tony beat her to it.
"So not fair." She grumbled like a kid and went to sit beside dad who just chuckled.
Cynthia as usual, sat her on a lone chair which was soon filled with the triplets, Tony's little ones.
"So now that we are all here, why don't we start with some food." Tony suggested.
"My mom was about telling me a story before you all came in." Alex chirped in and I scolded him for talking in the midst of his elders.
"Don't scold my son again." Cynthia warned and we all laughed. She loves Alex more than her own life. She's the perfect aunt for him.
"Yea. It's good we talk about the story. Starting from when you returned because that was where it all started." Cindy explained and everyone in the house nodded in agreement.
"Ok! We will talk about how it all happened after I returned from India. But I will really love to give it a title. Who knows, we might document it someday." I told them.
"You are right. So how will you tittle this story of yours?"
"I thought about it and decided to name it 'I'M THE BOSS' because everything that happened had several instances of leadership and bossy behaviours. Mom and dad you might be thrilled by some discoveries but please do not freak out because everything happens for a reason." I told them and they nodded, all bracing up to listen to the story.
"Hope you guys are ready?"

I'M THE BOSS CHAPTER ONE
General POVSounds of heels and all sort of shoes were heard from a long corridor, as many walked their way towards a big door that stood at the end of the corridor. The door was opened to seeing other people dancing to a slow, all dressed elegantly in white as it was a white party. But what was it all about? Why a party as such, with great men and women of high authorities? A man stood at the front, dressed in African white designer wear. His looks told of a man in his late sixties with the wrinkles clearly visible on his face and few touches of grey hair on his head and chin. Despite his old age, he still had the energy of a young man. "You all are most welcome to this party." He said on the mic which he had in his hands with his voice a little husky. "I am most delighted to meet most of you. I am happier to meet Senator Hartz here with his son. I want to s_" He didn't finish

Sophia's POVThe party had ended due to my sudden exclamation which caused a lot of murmuring among them.I was growing angry and impatient as I was so desperate to listen to my father's reasons for announcing an engagement without telling me before.It was more infuriating as he sat down, saying nothing at all.I wasn't ready for any marriage and I wasn't going to do so. Especially not to man that I've never known."Oh yes you are young lady." My dad replied in a slightly hoax tone."Dad listen I_""There is no contradiction here daughter."

It no longer had a wardrobe standing in the bedroom but it had a dressing room in it.So it was that I had my room which had a dressing room in it that had a bathroom in it too.

Sophia's POVWe were in the car heading home when Tony suddenly flashed in my head.What he said__ I felt the urge to ask dad about it. Though I did not believe him but I felt somehow, the feelings of doubt. I was doubting the truth in what he said and decided to ask dad about it.Besides, why will dad engage me all of a sudden to someone I barely knew who said something like he also owned my hospital.I had planned on asking dad in the morning on why he had engaged me all of a sudden but since he was eating I decided not to bother him.Since we were both alone, aside the driver, I thought I should ask him why."Dad!" I called distracting him from his phone."Yes darling." He replied and looked back into his phone.I suddenly felt nervous. My dad was the only one that

I just had to accept it and go along with the flow of things.After a few minutes of preparations for work, I was out of the house in a white sleeveless jumpsuit. I went to where my car was parked and entered the driver's seat when Josh decided to show up."You were late." I told him before he could utter a word."Miss I _""It's ok. I will be driving myself today." I said."Please open the gate for me." I added and he left.I steamed the car, ready to drive out of the house when Cindy came and knocked on the window of my car.I was leaving the house early to av

Sophia's POVI went back home very angry. Not only had Tony added a table in my office, but he also added a bed. He even changed the name of the hospital. I was very angry with him for doing what he did.But what could I do? He owned 50% shares in the hospital and hence he had the right to do some modification, although that wasn't what I wanted.I knew that one day I was surely going to have my revenge on him. I was positive sure about it.I came out of the car and walked inside the house."Sophia!" I heard my dad call, stopping me from taking another step.I turned to see him and his face was down.I suddenly had sympathy on him.Whatever he did, he did it for a reason justifiable enough."Dad!" I called back as he drew nearer."Princess can we ta

Cindy's POVI looked at Tony in disbelief. I came here because I wanted the both of us to get intimate as since we started dating, we had never done so. I had long been craving for today but seems he had other plans."I am really sorry Cindy. I just can't do it. You won't understand." Tony said.I didn't come here dressed like this to be insulted. I knew exactly what to do.Luckily for me, I brought some enhancers. I felt he might bail out on me so I needed to act smart."It's ok sweetheart. I understand you. I first of all am scared of it. But that doesn't matter. I need some fruit juice please." I pleaded with him."Check the mini fridge that way.""Will you drink too?"

✨MILLICENT✨I've been standing here for long now and I don't know if I can stand any longer again.I am sure this is the address my informants had given me."Ehem!" I heard a voice clear the throat. It startled me a little and I turned to see him. It was really him, though looking all shaggy.He was putting in dirty pair of jeans that were black in colour and his cream white shirt had blood red stains on it. Honestly, the stains look so much more like blood stains.Even his hands were dirty red, covered in blood and his face had traces of blood. His dark hair was in a ruffle and he messed it the more with his hands that ran through the hair.Once his eyes met mine, they widened and his mouth was slightly parted in a gasp. He looked really surprised seeing me standing in front of his door.For a second, he looked like he was g

I told Cindy with my sly smile as I walked over to where she was standing, passed her and went to sit on one of the men she hired to kill Sophia.I smiled because i know they've seen my lead already and will be here any minute from now...Tiberius Paschal is very smart, he leaves a lead for the police to come get him for a reason ....

✨SOPHIA✨I heard sounds around. It didn't seem to me like my room or somewhere familiar because I could feel myself seated on the ground. They were cold and my back was leaning against something, like a Pilar.Where I was, I had no idea of. So I opened my eyes to see where I was but it hurt.."Ah!" I groaned out loud. It hurt like hell. I needed to rub my eyes but my hands were stuck... They were tied. What really happened?"She's awake." I heard a female voice say. The voice was very familiar, one I could never forget because it was a voice I heard almost everyday and I hated the sound of that voice. But still, I didn't want to believe it, I wanted to give it the benefit of doubt.I struggled and opened my eyes slowly. My view was a little blur at first but it soon got clearer. I turned and saw Tony sleeping. I looked around me to see nothing familiar to me."Hey sister." I hea

✨SOPHIA ✨"Sophia, marry me please." He said on bended knee. This was the most humiliating thing, I swear.He didn't take me to the VIP section so, many paused on whatever they were doing and stared at us.At that very moment, whatever both I and Tony were doing was being watched by many. It even felt more like we were acting a movie.I was shy, I kept avoiding people's gazes into mine. Tony was still kneeling. I wished at that moment that it could be possible for us to communicate through the mind - telepathy. I would have pleaded with him to do this somewhere more discreet.But looking at him in those deep dark eyes of his that spoke of sincerity, love and pleas. The very eyes that I ignored the very first day we met. The very eyes I studied on my welcome party.... Those eyes, we're the eyes I looked into with so much love.I r

(Chuckles)Cindy knows not how we operate here in the underground, reasons why she thinks like a child, despite being older than me for a minute.I may look fragile, weird, harmless and angelic but even God knows that I am not one of his angels, not even the look-alike of an angel. Well you can call me angel if you want to but I'm not.I'm the devil that eats and dines with you, waiting for the day when I will strike. I am not just a serpent.

?SOPHIA?After breaking up with Henry earlier on today, I felt bad like I had committed the gravest of sins. Maybe I did a bad thing by breaking up with him today, or maybe not.I retired home only to meet Tony's dad and my dad. They told me of the change in program and apologised for any inconvenience."Two weeks!" I yelled completely shocked."It was supposed to be in two months. Why the sudden shift?" I asked calmly. Normally, I would have raised my tone on them but I couldn't do so."Like we said. We are sorry for the inconveniences." Tony's dad apologised."Well it is ok." I told them. "I am not against the wedding anymore."Dad looked perplexed and I understood clearly because I'm not the type to conform to decisions so easily but I just did.I am a dif

✨SOPHIA ✨I sat in the park waiting for Henry to show up. It's never written in a man's dictionary to be late but Henry had this special gene of coming unusually late for anything and he still has the habit.I constantly checked my time because I had better things doing than just to sit here and listen to the endless gossips and chatters I heard from the jobless ladies around.It was more than 30 minutes since I arrived here and he hasn't shown up. I shouldn't have come, it was bad thinking I could meet up with him. , what made me ever think that he was here in Atlanta?I stood up to leave when I spotted him coming towards me majestically.He will never change, will he?He has this manner of walking with his left hand in his left trouser’ pocket while his other hand is busy on the buttons of his tight check shirt.He has sha
