“Are you threatening me?” Nolan asked.” I am not going anywhere. I will make you pay for all the things that you have made me go through. This has gotten personal and I am not going to go back to any city” he added defiantly. The room became hot with tempers flaring all over. Old Mr. Walker had to convene in a soft way. He also didn’t want to take sides as it would come back to haunt him later. The problem with Jared was that he just made enemies with everybody, well except for Celine.“Nolan, son. I want you to leave. I understand what happened between the two of you but this is not the correct way to solve it.”“Grand pa , why are you being nice to him?” Enzo asked disgusted by his grandfather. He has never for once talked to him in that way. What was the deal between them?“Shut up and mind you own business” he growled and Enzo couldn’t say anything more“Nolan decided to leave for the respect he had for the old man. But he promised internally that Jared was not going to know any
Celine smiled and immediately she started feeling the heat on her cheeks. This man……this man, why was he this insatiable?Celine didn’t need to answer him, he got the answer he needed by just looking in to her eyes. It was amazing that after all that has happened, they were still together and in love with each other. She didn’t expect them to last this long after making up.Without talking, he lifted her against him and entered her fast and quick. Today it was going to be a quickie, there will be more time for teasing and touching later in the night.Whichever way he did it, she still got satisfied. Celine lifted her head up and gave herself totally in to the sensation as the man pumped in to her senselessly. She could never get tired of this game with him as he knew where to focus on to give her the greatest pleasure. This was not what she planned for when she came back from work but well it was a very good starter.Feeling overwhelmed with emotions, she tightened her legs around him
She hung up the phone and hugged Jared who had been listening to the entire conversation. “Don’t worry, I will be your body guard as always” Jared offered and Celine managed to smile. He would always make things seem easy for her.“Thank you”Jared was only glad that the unbearable Nolan didn’t call. Anyway, now that he was thinking about it, he wondered why he was buying time, perhaps he was planning something serious against them.When dawn came, Celine wore her best official attire in preparing to go to Rowan Corporation headquarters as she had been instructed by old Mr. Rowan. By the time Jared dropped her on the entrance, it was already 8.00 PM in the morning.She had never been in the premises before, Patrick offered to take her but they couldn’t get time. Celine was consumed with her own problems and later she joined her own company and she was always busy.In the reception, she met a lady who greeted her respectably and told her that Mr. Rowan was waiting for her in his office
The man laughed then opened the door and left. Joel was still standing on the center of the room when he heard her voice” You are dismissed , I have no assignment for you today” Celine said impatiently.Joel felt his blood boiling with anger, he has never been a patient person and Celine was not making it easy for him. Immediately he advanced on her and held his hands up intending to slap her. Celine acted swiftly and grabbed his hands midair.” Don’t you dare raise your hands on me again” she glared at him with a stern voice. “Now get out before I call the security to throw you out of the company.”He laughed” you wouldn’t dare, you are just a shameless gold digger who has been manipulating my father. You see, my father loved Patrick and I know that somewhere in his head, he thinks that you are him.” he continued to say. “I am going to advice you for free, run before it is too late because I am going to make him see who you are.”Celine could care less about his empty threats.Celine
"Celine, you can’t pretend in front of me. You will never earn the respect of this employees given your past. So quit struggling to show off” April snarled.“April, I am in no position to argue with you in public. This is an important company meeting and you have to show respect for your president. Please take a seat, we are about to start” Celine replied.Jemma sneered and sat down beside Joel who looked like he had been hit by something. Nothing made sense. He couldn’t admit that the little girl had managed to take all his powers. Patrick and everything that had to do with him was a curse in his life.Celine cleared her voice, she couldn’t believe that she has done this so many times that it was beginning to seem like a normal life to her” Greetings to all of you. I am aware that you all know me.”She hesitated and the board members nodded their heads. “As running a company isn’t something new to me, I have gone through your financials and I have found many suspicious loopholes. I
Suddenly, Celine received a call. Oh….it was Jared who had called at that time that she was busy. But she could not bring herself to avoid him.”Hello Jared, I am in an important meeting. Can we talk in the next 10 minutes? I think I will be done by then” the people in the room glared at her with interest. But that was not her concern, right this very moment. She had promised herself that as much as she was going to be a career woman, she wasn’t going to neglect her personal life.“It is such a shame that I have to budge in your meeting again. I am not a very patient man to wait for you outside” Jared said and cut off the phone conversation. Initially, he just came to pick her up since the day was already over.Besides, he came to see if she was facing any trouble and he would be happy to help. He knew that he had sent Tessa as always but he couldn’t be at peace until he saw her with his own eyes.It was useless to stop him, the man would always do whatever he wanted.It didn’t tak
“Just relax and trust me, you will be fine.” He held her hands and led her to the new office. Celine placed the files on the table and sighed with a relief. The first day was the hardest and now that it was over, she could only be happy that she had achieved something. She had removed the pest where they didn’t belong. It was better for Jemma and April to be far away from the company before something bad happens. They say keep your friends close but your enemies even closer. This was the man reason why she didn’t fire Joel. She felt that he might plan something against her and so she didn’t act without thinking deeper.“As always you will never seize to amaze me. I didn’t think you had the guts to fire them. Perhaps, I have been a good teacher and you have been an excellent student.” Jared commented as Celine looked at him with a raised brows.“Mr. Walker, don’t think that if I am vulnerable to you, I am also to others. I did what was best for the company and now I want the Rowan Co
“You are a moron then, let us go home. There has been enough drama for tonight and I don’t want to dwell on things that makes me sad. If he wished to tell the whole world about our story, I don’t give a damn.” Celine confessed.“That is the spirit, sweetie,” he held her waist and led her out. Tessa was waiting outside. Jared instructed her to drive in front, there was no way that he was going to be separated from Celine. Whatever will come in the future, they will handle it together as always.The following day when Celine reported to work, there was a crowd of reporters waiting outside the company. They had come to interview Celine Nelson, the queen of social media. Due to her popularity, she managed to gain the name.Celine had the most followers of all people even popular celebrities couldn’t match her fans. This scandal was just too juicy to leave it pending. When she saw the commotion outside, her immediate action was to sneak through the back door. Then she wouldn’t have to fac
“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
