Carlos closed the first aid kit box. “I’m hungry.” He looked at Triffany.
“Make yourself a meal.” Triffany looked down at her injured hand.
“I’m tired.” He curled his lips up.
Triffany runs her hands through her hair. “I’m tired too and I got an injury. “ she lift up her hands for him to see.
Carlos scoffed at her excuse. “What did you do that made you tired?” He asked with a frowned, thinking back at what she must have done at that man’s place.
“I have been busy.” She furrowed her brow.
“Not as if you have a job.” Carlos sighed.
Triffany bite down her lips, sure enough he was looking down at her. “You’re so annoying.” She looked around the house. “I wonder where Gabby is?’ she was talking out loud to herself now.
Carlos made a signal with his hands as a maid came out with a tray of chicken a
Gabby sat down with Blake who was with her at a playground as they discuss. “So tell me, why aren’t your cheerful self lately?” He asked looking at her.“Huh!” Gabby looked at him, the question took her by surprise.“Did someone hurt you?” He asked, he have never seen Gabby this way before, she was a lady that loves fun but now she decided to stay at this place.Gabby rolled her eyes. “No, nobody did.” She looked over at some kids that were playing.“You know I do understand you a lot.”Gabby knew he was right, Blake was the only man that understands her, she knew he had see through her. “Blake, listen up.” She face him.“I’m all ears.”Gabby leans closer. “I met this guy, well, we met through an online dating app, so we hooked up and met each other, he was different from other men I have met, like he is cool and not fun to be with.&r
Carlos and Kelsey were having dinner that evening at a classy restaurant. “Tomorrow is the shipping in of the new products we ordered, so it would be so stressful,” Kelsey told him as she sips her wine.“I could help.” He leans close to the table.“You don’t have to, you would be occupied at work,” Kelsey said softly.Carlos stared into her blue eyes. “I don’t have any schedule tomorrow, I would be at home all day.”“But, it’s my job, not yours, and my workers are going to help me out.” She tilts her head to the side, grateful he was willing to help her.Carlos knew he can’t win when she protest. “I will give you a ride back home then, after you close tomorrow give me a call.”“Okay, but won’t your wife get angry?” Kelsey put a spoonful of rice in her mouth.Carlos scoffed. “She knows I love you and who cares, she wo
“You can stay,” Carlos told her and she halts, she looked at him as he deep himself into the pool and started swimming with Gabby.“I’m more good at swimming than you brother,” Gabby said proudly.Carlos scoffed. “I don’t want to drag it, you know I’m a genius in everything.” They both laugh, Gabby knew she can’t win against her brother when it comes to this, he was naturally blessed with everything.Gabby splashed water on Triffany who was only watching them. “Hey, let’s have fun.” She knew she had to involve her in the game.“Gabby, I’m scared. “Triffany grip the float closer to herself.In the process, she lost her step and was about to go into the water but Carlos held her as they looked at each other awkwardly. “I’m okay now.” She gently pulls her hands from his and held the float.“You’re so clumsy, even in wate
Triffany bite down her lower lips, she wasn’t going to say it but now she has to come out clean. “I happened to overhear it, I don’t want to ruin your life anymore, so please.” She lifts her eyes to see him.“Fine.” Carlos turned around and left the room back to where his friends were, they all looked behind him but didn’t see Triffany. “Where is she?” Gabby asked as Carlos sat down and gulp his wine.“Gabby check on her yourself, you’re free to go in,” Carlos said coldly, Gabby left for upstairs.“Carlos, what’s wrong?” Eric asked curiously.“I’m good.” Carlos filled his glass and gulp the wine again.Garrett studied his mood for a while. “You went in there and fought.”“Please, let’s discuss something else.” Carlos looked at them.“You should start loving your wife,” Blake told h
Triffany woke up the next morning to find herself on the bed, she was surprised and sat up immediately. She turned to see Carlos dressed for work, holding a newspaper while sitting on the sofa.He turned to look at her and close the newspaper. “You’re awake.”Triffany stood up from the bed. “Sorry for sleeping here, I must have thought it was my bed, I’m so sorry.” She apologized.“It’s okay, just know your place next time.” He said softly and turned to the newspaper again.Triffany looked at him, he was acting strange. “Are you feeling well?” She asked as she walked close to him.“I’m fine.” Carlos got up from the sofa slowly and walked over to the mirror to straighten his crooked tie. He noticed Triffany was still staring at him. “You should get dressed, it’s late, you don’t want to miss your interview today.”Triffany turned her eye
After some tons of question, the lady smiled at Triffany, flashing a white set of arranged teeth, the first smile from this lady Triffany had seen. “Congratulation Triffany Joey, you’re in.” Triffany covered her lips in joy. “You should have some time with your appointed Director, Director Kammy.” Triffany walked out of the hall.“Congratulation.” Director Kammy came out of the hall and smiled at the happy Triffany.“It is all thanks to you.” Triffany bowed her head slowly.“I’m sure you put in your best effort this time.”“Thank you, Director Kammy.”“Follow me, you should meet someone.” Kammy walked down the hallway with Triffany behind, trying to keep up with him.“Who’s that?” She asked curiously.“Someone, who will be in the same team as you.”“Team?”“Yes, we are looking fo
Gabby sat up at the dining chair and puts down her napkin. “I would ask Triffany about the company she’s working in, I’m sure Carlos don’t know about the company, I will make her keep it a secret from him and then I would let you know the company she’s working with, you will then make Carlos sign a contract with them.” She looked up at her grandparents. “How did you see my plan?”“You’re smart Gabby.” Bailey gave her a thumbs up with a cute smile.“Thanks, grandma.” Gabby smiled and then turned to her grandfather to hear what he have to say about the plan.“But Carlos is smarter and he can’t be fooled, who told you Carlos don’t know the company she will be working in.” Ethan looked at his granddaughter. “Gabby your brother has a high IQ and we shouldn’t interfere.”Gabby pouts. “Is this coming from you, grandpa? ‘We shouldn&r
Triffany arrived home by seven o'clock in the evening, she went upstairs to the room and was surprised to see Carlos at home and asleep at this time.She shrugged and went in to take her bath and changed her dress. When she came out she picked up her laptop and went through her emails.There was the file Tommy sent her to for editing, she went through the first two lines wondering how she will go about it.She looked over at Carlos who was still asleep and she wished he was awake to give her some hints.This was also the first time she has seen him sleeping this early, she heard his phone ring and went close to see who it was.She knitted her brow when she saw it was Kelsey, she sighed and look at Carlos who was still asleep. "Should I wake him or not? Well, whatever." She muttered to herself and went back to the couch.She picked her laptop again. "He has ears to hear his phone ringing." She looked at the file on her laptop agai
The family of friends sat down around a big table to feast at the beach, it was already late in the evening and only the moonlight could be seen and the gentle breeze that run through their face, sounds of water waves from the beach, bit not too strong to bring cold to their skin.Triffany sat next to Carlos with his coat over her shoulders, he added more food to her plate and told her to eat a lot, this was counted as love, but to Triffany it was just a means for Carlos to make her fatter.Well, he was caring for her too much now because she was carrying their second child in her womb, and this time he has always watch over her like a hawk.Triffany added more food to Tanner and Jojo's plate as they ate in silence while the adults chat while eating, her parents were on a business trip, so Tanner had been staying with Allison and Nick, and sometimes come over to their mansion to see her, he was now a big boy and loves his space.Triffany turn her attention to Gabby and Tommy who were
Carlos got dressed quickly with Triffany, they both looked at the mirror fo cheek their outfit out. "I am good to go now." He told Triffany and look at her.Triffany smile as she checked him out as she helped him adjust his tie. "As always, you look handsome. What about me?" She turned around for him to access her outfit.Carlos eyes lightened. "Yellow dress?" He raised the corner of his brow as he ogle at her. "Dazzling...you look pretty as ever."Triffany gave him a quick kiss on the lips. "Thanks for the compliments." She told him with a smile, Carlos shook his head, she had started taking the first step, but his eyes glow with glint."You call that a kiss?" Carlos asked her as she saw his eyes changed and she tried to move backwards knowing what will come next, but Carlos was fast to wrap his hands around her waist as he trapped her with a smile on his lips.He pull her close to him and gave her deep kiss that left them breathless. "Carlos.." Triffany managed to say after taken in
Nick walked into the company with his head held high, his chest puffed out and with boldness and smiles on his face, he was confident as he walked in, he had stopped by at a beauty store and had groomed himself up.He was wearing shiny well-polished shoes, a navy blue coat and a matching back button-down shirt and his hair were styled back, he looked just like a totally different person.He has browsed all night searching for how to make a lady fall in love with him, and he has found out grooming could give him a chance to be looked at or better yet admire by Katy.Smiles plastered on his face seeing his other female staff and colleagues admiring him as he made his way into the office, some of his male colleagues also turned their head in his direction and one has to ask if there was a special occasion today, but Nick smiled at them and walked past all of them, he located Katy who was clicking on her laptop.She walked over to her front and sat on the edge of her desk hoping she would
Tiffany was discharged and taken home by Carlos Zack, he kept his promise and showed up as he had promised and she was glad that he didn’t keep her waiting, although it still bugged her, what his friends have told her and who Adrianna was.Howard asked the maid to prepare lunch for Tiffany before walking into the room where Tiffany sat on the bed waiting for him to show up since he had put her on the bed and told her not to move a muscle.Carlos took off his coat and placed it on the couch before walking over to Tiffany with smiles on his lips, he moved close to her and sat on the edge of the bed. “Tell me, darling, what do you wish to do first, taking a shower, resting your head for a nap or eating lunch?” He said it in a tantalising voice and Tiffany blushed, Carlos truly knows how to treat someone nicely.“Umm.” Tiffany touched her hair and looked down at her hand. “I will take a shower first, I haven’t washed my hair for a while and I feel uncomfortable with having dirty hair, so.
The room door opened and Tiffany raised her eyes to glance at it only to see Garrett, Blake, Eric and Gabby step in, her eyes grew wide and they chuckled to see her wide gaze.“You must be surprised,” Gabby said softly as she ran close and embraced Tiffany warmly. “I miss you too.”“What are you…” She stopped her words, she was surprised to see them here all at once.“I know you are shocked, but your husband doesn’t like leaving you all alone, so he asked us to come to keep you company since he is away for some business meeting,” Garrett said as he closed the door.“He asked us to bring you breakfast too.” Eric lifted the parked lunch box for Tiffany to see as he gently placed it on the desk.“We heard you will be discharged today.” Blake sat at the edge of the bed and Tiffany looked at all of them, they were all speaking quickly and she didn't know which to answer first.“Here, eat this,” Gabby, who quickly dished the meal into a bowl for Tiffany, placed it next to her bed. “It's bon
Tiffany gently open her eyes and she squinted immediately and raised her n to cover her eyes since the light reflection that came in through the open window blinded her, she can’t how long she has slept but she could tell that it was morning and the thought of not seeing Carlos Zack before falling asleep drawn to her and she quickly turned her eyes to glance around the room just in case he has come in while she was asleep.Tiffany's expression turned pale when she didn’t see any sight of Carlos, her heart fell and she gently reached for her phone that was on the table, lifting it, she scroll through it, there was no call back from the missed call she gave him last night before falling asleep and there was no call from him, not text messages either.Tiffany scoffed and put down her phone only to hear the door crack open and she glanced up to see Carlos coming into the room, she was delighted but quickly hid it as he walked over to her with a smile on his face,“Hi, love, how was your n
Tiffany glanced down at the wall clock, she has been listening to Allison all through the day, Gabby was somewhere enjoying herself with Tommy and the hospital suck being alone with the thoughts of Carlos with a lady she knew nothing about, a lady who he has to leave to answer her calls, it was really annoying to have these feeling of being jealous.“You are not listening to me right?” Alison, who had noticed Tiffany's loss of attention, asked and Tiffany turned her eyes away from the clock and back to Alison as she flashed a smile and Alison took her hand and squeezed it softly. “You are getting yourself worried and it’s not good for the baby, you know it.” She looked at Tiffany who glanced out of the window.“I know, but, I can’t help it, it has also been over four hours since he left, he hasn’t called me or come back, it’s past nine in the evening and he still isn’t here, I hate myself for having this crazy feeling.” She said softly and Allison patted her hand and Tiffany turned to
Nick scratched the corner of his hair as he licked his lower lips, rubbed his sweaty palm together and exhaled sharply before pushing the glass door of the office he was working at.He swallowed hard and his eyes darted to the left corner of the room. It was lunch break and everyone had left already, but only a lady in a white shirt and pale blue straight skirt sat down by her desk making the most astonishing game ever.Her lips moved, her eyelashes flickered on the screen of the monitor and her fingers clicked on both the keyboard and the mouse.Nick stood there staring at her for a while, her long hair that falls perfectly behind her back and her feet that dance to the beat of imaginary music, Nick's lips curled up, he swallowed hard as his eyes settled on her lips that moved softly, her rosy flawless cheek, she was like an angel and never in his life did he believe that some lady could sweep him off his feet.How he met her was a mystery, she has come to the company two weeks ago a
Alison walked into the VIP room at the hospital where Triffany sat with her phone in her hand scrolling it idly."Triffany, what are you up to?" Alison has come in and noticed that Triffany was too focused on her phone to know that she was in there and Triffany quickly raised her eyes and glanced at Alison."You are here," Triffany said softly letting out a sharp sigh.Alison drew out the chair beside the bed and sat down as she looked at her cousin sister. "Why do you look so pale?" She asked and held Tiffany's hands as she rubs them softly. "Do you still feel unwell?" She questioned as a worried line appeared on her brows but Triffany shook her head and put down her phone.She patted her lips to fill Alison about what had happened with Carlos and how he had left immediately he came in just because a lady had called him, but she pressed her lips together since it may not be what she was thinking that it was, it was too early to jump into conclusions and Alison was also going to say t
