Celine saw how his ego was hurt, he raised his hand to slap her again, but she stopped him mid-way by saying “If you lay another hand on me, you won’t like what I will do. I am not the same stupid woman you used to trample upon.”Nolan was surprised at how the woman whom he thought was harmless suddenly turned in to a thorn in his flesh but there was nothing he could do because one wrong move will mean him losing the company that he had worked so hard to keep.“Excuse me I am going to pack my things. “Celine didn’t even know where she was going, but all she wanted was to move out even if it meant sleeping under a bridge so be it. She was hurt beyond words and all the pain she has been holding throughout the two years suddenly exploded.She curled herself in a corner and cried her heart out. When she calm down, she stood up looked at the room for the last time and packed a few of her belongings in the suitcase.The first name that came to her mind was to call Lina, but she never wante
Jared had a way of making her forget her major problems. She had just asked for a divorce but it didn’t seem to bother her since the moment Jared appeared in front of her“This is what you do to me woman” he whispered with a sexy voice in her ears. Celine was now blushing, her ears were all red .Really she was embarrassed and so she couldn’t help looking at the front at the driver who was staring ahead on the road.Jared realized that immediately and assured her “Don’t worry about him, he is an adult and understands what is going on here. I need all your attention”“Where are you taking me?”Celine suddenly became afraid, she just entered in side the car without even asking where they were going. Was he taking her to the hotel? Anyway she is just stupid, where else could he be taking herHis next answer shocked her beyond words, never in her life could she imagine that come thing like this would happen to her.“ We are going to my house. Where else?“No” she said while shaking her head
“I left the house because I didn’t want to keep looking at his face again. I wanted to go stay with my friend. She is a colleague from where I used to work in the media back then.“Why didn’t you call me? You know it will always be dangerous for women like you walking alone at night.” He said with a concerned face.Celine felt really good inside, Jared seems to care for her and that is all she needed to hear after the exchange of words she just had with Nolan. She is going to make sure that his life is destroyed the same way he did to her.She was startled by huge hands cupping her face. Looking in to those deep blue eyes always had a calming effect on her and right now she wished to stare at them for eternity.“Listen to me sweetheart. I don’t care whether you are married or not. All I know is I want you to stay by my side. We are already lovers and the whole country knows, so let it be. From today onwards you will live in my house and sleep with me each and every night. I know you w
“He is so charming, I wonder why he is never interested in finding a woman and settling down. Does he love being lonely all the time? I swear I can offer myself free of charge just to be held by him.” One of the ladies commented as soon as the president disappeared.“Dream on girl, he wouldn’t even spare a few seconds to look at you.” And the girl who was last9ng over him looked down with embarrassment.He reached his office at the 10th flour and met his personal assistant on the way who greeted him in a hurry and gave him some documents as reference to the meeting that he is about to have.“Is everything in these documents?“Yes boss” The assistant answered as he showed him to the board room.As he entered the boardroom, he was greeted with a group of two people whom he had constantly done business with. Their deals were always smooth and he was hoping for the same to happen today.After several negotiations they finally came to an agreement that was going to benefit them both at dif
If it was up to him, he would have already called his friends in the government offices and divorced the both of them single handedly. Jared who had been silent all this time now felt an urge to talk.“If you don’t like her, why do you still hold on to her? Why don’t you just let her go and give her the divorce she is asking for? Just accept it man, you have already lost and I am the winner. I won, simple as that and however how much you are still bent on prolonging this, trust me that it won’t take you anywhere.”“I wasn’t talking to you. You are an outsider and this is between me and my wife. “Nolan said almost yelling. He wanted to punch the guy so hard on the face.Jared laughed evilly and said in a sarcastic way” The woman whom you took her money and looked down upon all this years is now mine. She chose me and left you, I am sure you know that I am making her feel like areal woman, something that you weren’t able to.”“Shut up. In fact I can’t understand why you decided to use h
On opening the door she saw him seated on the chair looking at her suspiciously. “What took you so long? I have been waiting here for some times.”She was so caught up in the pregnancy news she didn’t even notice when he came back in to the room. Nolan was a sneaky son of a bitch, was it possible that he had seen something? Celine became nervous but she just comforted herself that he won’t have the facts until he saw the test. So she will hide it well where he can’t find it.“I am sorry my stomach was aching so badly, so I took a little bit longer than expected.” She lied and when she saw him drop his intense look then she knew that she was safe for the time being, but what about in the next three months when it would start showing? Would he haunt her with this?Celine said this while looking down, she didn’t want him to read her face and discover that she was lying that she had just found out that she was pregnant.Like he had been reading her mind he suddenly asked “Are you pregnant
It has been really boring during these days he wasn’t around and it wouldn’t hurt for her to enjoy herself for a little while with him. Whatever he had planned for her she didn’t care as long as he would get to spend some time with her.Celine quickly freshened up and wore a black fitting dress with a slit at the side. It was her favourite dress and she couldn’t imagine that in the next few months it won’t fit at all. She left her hair hanging loose on her shoulders bringing out the perfect features of her oval shaped face. She also went for a red doll shoes just to compliment her look.When the driver came in about 30 minute’s time she was ready. He opened the passenger seat for her and drove in silence to the restaurant.“Ma’am the boss said that you should go inside he is waiting for you” the driver said and she heaved a sigh of relieve. Nolan didn’t take her out on dinners and she was highly expectant of the night ahead.“Thank you “she muttered and climbed down the car with her
“Hello Sweetheart. Are you okay?”“Yes, I just needed to hear your sweet voice. Do you mind?” Celine said after hesitating for a while. She couldn’t even figure out why she was that emotional. Tears wouldn’t stop flowing on her face no matter how much she tried to suppress them.“Geez Celine, why are you crying?” He asked after hearing her blowing her nose. Did Nolan bother you again? Tell me and I will deal with him right this moment” he finished saying and Celine heard him cursing over the phone.“No….No…. he didn’t, I am just sad a little bit, I don’t know what is happening to me” she complained and she was glad that he was patient enough to listen to her. “I just ate not long ago and I already feel hungry”“Is that all that is bothering you? Listen I told you that you can ask for absolutely anything and I will make it available. Do you need me to order for you food?” That was just a small piece of cake for Jared all he needed to do was make some calls and the food will be deliver
“Watch your words, idiot. I love weddings and not all the marriages go wrong. I believe in Lina and me. Alright …. shut up already “Ivan scolded.Jared grinned at the two with a triumphant face.“I am just kidding. Anyway, I am happy for the both of you. Make this lovely woman happy. “Jared said and then left to say hello to Alexis and Jason. He hasn’t found time to visit them and so he was glad to catch up with them.Back at the other corner, the boys were chatting when they saw two beautiful women entering inside the hall. They knew that they were Lina’s recently found cousins. She introduced them when they went on one of their evenings out on which the boys and the girls were present.Nolan grabbed Rita’s hands and pulled her aside. He hasn’t stopped to fantasize about her. Ever since he saw her, she was all that he could think about day and night . He knew that if he didn’t do something ASAP, he was going to lose his second chance at finding love. He wanted to settle down and have
“Of course, this is a fucking yes. Let us make another baby. May be, she will be a girl so that your grandmother can tell me her name.” Celine said with affectionShe had grown to love Old Madam Walker so much and she wanted to please her. She was the only grandmother that she has.“Or maybe he will be another boy and my grandmother won’t hesitate to kick your ass” Jared joked as Celine wrapped her hands around his neck. ” Anyway, you could have simply asked me to tell you her name. You are just being silly, sweetie.” Jared whispered in her ears while nibbling on them. She so fucking liked the excitement that she was getting from the simple gesture.“Okay, wherever …a child is a child and as long as he/she will be yours, it doesn’t matter the gender. Anyway, I wanted grandma to tell me her name herself. Can we get to the business because I am ovulating and this is the best time to conceive?“Huh……” he hummed and then started kissing her furiously. Before they knew it, they were lyin
After the incidence, Celine didn’t go out much. She would spend her time at home taking care of Isaac. It was a good thing that Alma was still around and she was helping with the management of the N.C Corporation in Mombasa. Ever since Alma came to Mombasa, Celine’s uncle, Lucas Nelson found his way to manage the Nairobi branch. Finally, he got his hands on his late brother’s company the moment Alma left.Alma said that she was too old to fight with him so she gave up to raise her grandchildren. Nothing was more important than Isaac and Celine. She would give up just anything for their sake and she would sacrifice her career for them.In the evening, Jared came back from work. He was looking at her funnily and she didn’t know what he had in his crazy mind.“Sweetheart, spill it. I almost died the other day you know “up to now, she was still traumatized at the thought of April and her mother getting to them. She had thought that the two had learned their lesson but apparently, they de
But the police were on their trail shooting from all directions. They tried but they couldn’t match up to the number of the police that was sent to pursue them.Buy accident the tires busted after being hit by the bullet and before they knew it, they were thrown in to the man-made lake on the side of the tarmac road. The police surrounded the lake from all sides to prevent them from escaping and by the time that the car had been pulled out, the both of them were already dead.Joel was hit on the chest and was unconscious when he was found and taken to the hospital When he woke up, Patrick was by his side and he couldn’t believe the state that he was in. He was no longer the babbly and healthy Joel that he used to know. He was thin and pale. He looked like he had aged a bit and Patrick couldn’t bear to look at him.“Oh…. Joel. what have you done to yourself? I told you that it wouldn’t end up well for you. Those two were snakes. I lived with them and I knew them very well. why didn’t
“Daddy, life is too short to keep on having unnecessary beef. Look at what happened to Jared, he has forgiven Nolan and his mother. It was like they were never the people that he hated with his life. He is now at peace with himself. I wish you could see him today. He is not the Jared we used to know. Always angry and sad. Please just hear him out, he might be having something important to tell you.” Celine begged.She always had a way of reaching out to him. Patrick felt sad suddenly. Celine was right in a way. All this time, it has been eating him up like hell. He wouldn’t be at peace knowing that his only brother was suffering while he enjoyed life and had such a wonderful family.Perhaps it was time to hear him out once and for all.As if on a cue, Joel called again and this time, he picked it up.“Joel, what do you want?” he asked emotionlessly.“Listen, I don’t have much time to talk or explain things but your life and Celine’s s life is in danger. Your car is being followed an
After a few days, Celine went to visit her dad. It has been long since she saw him. Patrick Rowan was happy nowadays. Together with Iris, they were trying to build the pieces of their life back together and she couldn’t help but admire their spirit.It was admirable. Finally, life had granted the two of them another chance to experience good days. Gone are the days that her father would be insulted like a little kid. Gone are the days that she would look at his loneliness and wished that she could take his place.“Daddy…” She called as soon as she saw him.“Baby” Patrick hasn’t forgotten how he used to call her and he had maintained it to the end. Iris only smiled loving the way the two loved each other. She knew that she could never match up to them but as long as Celine was happy, then she had nothing to worry about.“Mum, how are you?” She asked as she kissed her cheeks.“I am great dear. I am happy to hear the good news that Jared reconciled with his family. Now you are going to
“Why not my sweet little daughter in law. I love you and remember that we are only focusing on the future. No more dramas or immature behavior from me, I want to be a good mother and a grandmother, okay. You made my son happy and that is why I will have you as my daughter in law. Thank you.”“No…. Thank you for giving me such a good man as my husband. “Celine smiled as she looked at Jared and his father.“Oscar, congratulations on your wedding. I never came to the ceremony.” Celine cracked a joke and the family laughed about it.“No, it was a quick one and I am glad that I made that decision. You should have seen how my wife was aggressive with me but who is smiling now? I want her to know that despite what has happened between us, I am glad that she gave me a beautiful family. I never even dreamt that I will one day become a grandfather. Thank you, darling, I love you from the bottom of my heart.“I love you right back “Danna smiled“No need to talk anymore. I want to celebrate with
Enzo gladly went and together they hugged their mother consuming her in to an embrace that stole her soul all over again.“Enzo, baby. I love you so much. You two are my life right now. ” Danna muttered as she kissed Enzo on the cheeks. The man chuckled as he replied “ I love you too Mommy and I love that we can now be a normal family with Jared . Oh…I waited for this day for so long, damn it . I wanted to tell my brother that I didn’t mean to cause him trouble in the past. All that I wanted was for him to notice me and consider me as his brother but he was so full of hate that I didn’t know how to reach out to him. ““I am so sorry for my behavior in the past. I am the one who should be asking for forgiveness. I was jealous for the love that our mother gave you. You have to understand that I watched you have everything that I didn’t. so, I found myself hating you even when I knew that you were innocent but it won’t happen again because I will never break up my family. I couldn’t
“Come here, sweetie.” Old Mr. Gavin called. Did she hear it right? was this arrogant man calling her sweetie? When did he start to grow fond of her? wonders shall never end. Danna was now being pampered by the very people who loathed her in the past.“Mmh….are you calling Oscar? “She asked dumbfound.“No….it is you, Danna. Why should I call that bastard that denied me a chance to be with my grandkids like an idiot? Does he even deserve for me to pamper him?” the man snarled. “Dad, you are being unfair and you know it. I also suffered, why must you complain and blame me for everything bad in our lives? “Oscar complained.“I love you son , but sometimes you let me down. I am just going to bear with you because Jared has finally come to me. I can feel it that he has decided to come home, something that should have happened earlier if not for your incompetence. Listen, I know that you haven’t been a good mother to him but the most important thing is that you are trying to make it up t
