I entered the mansion and was taken aback by the interior's splendour.Everything about this mansion shouts money and luxury.Then there are the late-fifties women. she gave me a warm laugh."Good morning mam, my name is Celia, and I work as a maid here," she said, and I smiled."There are a total of fifty maids in the mansion. Some are cleaning, while others are in the servant quarters; but, I am available if needed," she told me."Come, let me show you Mr. Campbell's bedroom," she added, raising my heartbeat with each passing second.How am I supposed to live with him? He didn't even want to look at my face."Sure," I responded tentatively, and followed her.We ascended the glass-encased great stairwell to the upper level. She let me inside Adrian's master bedroom once she opened the door.His room is painted in a dark colour theme. It has a king-size bed in the middle and a large glass door facing front, and it reminds me of him in some ways. It has a sofa and other lavish furnishi
It's 9 p.m., and I'm sitting in this mansion's living room, doing nothing while staring at a giant TV in front of me, but nothing interesting is about to happen to keep me occupied.Then I observed him, Adrian, heading somewhere in a casual grey shirt with blue trousers, his Greek god body visible even through the shirt, making me uneasy from the inside, he had the phone in his hand while talking to someone, making me nervous from the inside.I moved closer to him, hoping to overhear his conversation and learn more about my brother, because I've never received Sarah's message about their condition, how they're doing, even if they're fine, since that day.I searched the area till I spotted Celia."Celia, where did Adrian just go?" I inquired."Mr. Campbell, went to his study room," she said, and I nodded and followed Adrian to the upper floor of the mansion, where he was going to his study room. He went to his study room while I tiptoed behind him, hoping to hear what he was saying in
"Please come to a stop," I took a deep breath and flung my hands up in the air, watching at the fifth cab speeding away down this road.It's already 9:45 a.m., and I have to be in his presence by 10:00 a.m., or he'll ruin my life.Emberly, you're not going to have a taxi here, so I'd best get going before I'm even more late.So, I've chosen to run now; hiring a taxi from here would be pointless because I've already travelled half of the distance to his workplace by running behind cabs.I instantly took out my phone to verify my current location; yeah, I'm only 15 minutes away from where I'm currently standing.*******I clutched my handbag closely as I gazed at a gorgeous and elegant tower, wondering if this was another Burj-Khalifa.God, you are stunning and deserving of all praise.I enter the house to find guests.The company's interior was breathtakingly lovely.Everything appears to be really lovely. the epitome of opulenceI took a step towards the receptionist.She smiled pleas
Biting down on my bottom lip, I moaned as I felt my wrist burn with unbearable anguish. I stuffed the final file into a drawer that I'm putting in alphabetical order as per his request for me.I looked at the clock, it was 10 p.m., I peeked inside his office, which was vacant, and I dashed to the balcony, where I saw him driving his car away from his company's building.Everyone is leaving; I should leave as well because this is my final assignment of the day.I dragged my feet towards my desk, swiftly turning off the laptop and retrieving my handbag.I came down, wrapped my arms around myself, and walked down the road at night, it took me two hours to walk to the mansion because I didn't have enough money to book a cab, and I was very hungry because I brought lunch back from the Starbucks cafe during my lunch break at the office, as I didn't have enough money to afford a cab.Guards greeted me as I entered the mansion.I walked straight to the kitchen to get something to eat, checked
I strode around the living room, constantly drawing and releasing my breath.I can't think straight right now because of what's going on.When I heard the sound of the door opening, I flinched."Honey," a woman's captivating voice said.I turned around and held my breath when I saw a very beautiful woman in her middle age wearing an expensive chiffon long dress and a middle-aged man who looked like the old version of Adrain, along with a girl who appeared to be my age, with grey eyes like Adrian and a face that resembled Adrian's, there is no doubt that she is his sister.I stared at them as I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.Adrian comes from his study, and his mother rushes up to him, hugging him and kissing his cheeks.His father then hugged him, followed by his sister."How are you doing, honey?" his mother said, tenderly touching his hair, but he frowns, as if irritated by them.Jerk, you are so fortunate to have such a wonderful family. Compare that to an orphan like mysel
After dinner, I went into his room, while mom, dad, and Skylar went to their guest rooms. They are an absolutely astounding family that anyone can only wish for.I believe Adrain is adopted; there is no way he could be their son; they are incredibly loving and caring, and here I am with this guy who abuses me like a shithead.I looked around and saw him sitting on the couch with his laptop on his lap, working, and I'm very sure he's adopted.My thoughts made me laugh."What's so funny," he said, his voice thick and husky."Umm... N.nothing," I stammered and dashed into the bathroom after clearing my throat.I put on my pajama pants and a plain top, but before I could fall asleep on the floor, I heard his voice."Sleep on the bed," he murmured, without looking at me as he scribbled on his laptop."Excuse me," I said, frowning at him.He stands up and walks towards me after turning off his laptop."I don't want to repeat myself," he added emphatically as he walked over to the bed and gr
It's fine, Mom; we don't have to do everything.While mom, Skylar, and I are headed to Adrian's aunt's party, Mrs. Voilet Locason, who is Adrian's father's sister, I murmured while tucking in my upper lip.Skylar placed her hand over my shoulder and whispered, "Trust me, Emberly, you will thank us later."I examined myself in the mirror; I am dressed in a pink off-shoulder prom gown with a deep cut that highlights my cleavage and a little cut from my lower thigh that accentuates my left thigh; mom and Skylar are also dressed elegantly in expensive gowns.We walked into a posh hotel where the party was being hosted.I observed a lot of people here, women trailing in their costly dresses, guys in suits, some even smoking, and waiters rushing about with appetizers and refreshers. It's like a typical family party, with kids running around and bumping into servers.Then, an attractive woman with long brown hair and dressed in a yellow extravagant gown approached us; I assumed she was Adri
I gasped as he pulled me closer to him as my chest pressed against his hard, stone-like chest and I could feel my legs trembling so badly from my rapid breathing. "Come with me, or I will take you right here, I don't care who will see us or peoples are present here," he growled in my ear while staring at my exposed cleavage. His hands clenched into fists as I felt my cheeks getting warm from his intense stare.I was about to exit my side door when he opened it after stopping his car in front of the mansion. However, he grabbed my arm and dragged me inside instead.I bit my lip and closed my eyes.I whimpered as I struggled to wrench my hand free of his firm hold, "Stop it, now, I come with you as you commanded me now stop dragging me."He immediately carried me over his shoulder, and I noticed his arousal from there as he ascended steps before I could comprehend anything.Just put me down. I punched him in the back with my clenched hand, but he didn't even budge, like he was made of s
