CandaceWe didn't stay long at the Morton mansion after we said our goodbyes; we packed up quickly and then moved into the house that my father-in-law had bought us as a gift in an attempt to convince Harald and me to stay in Denver. I gasped loudly, and my eyes lit up when the car stopped in front of the house where my husband and I were going to live. "Oh my God! What an amazing place!" I exclaimed, suppressed, getting out of the car and looking at the mansion, which had very clean architecture. Harald didn't say anything, but you could see from his face that he too was surprised by the way the place looked; the servants were already carrying our suitcases, which were in another car, into the house. “Did you like it, Harald? It is splendid, isn't it? I want to take a look inside! Come with me?" I said, inviting him with a little giggle and running towards the house. The entrance door was high, almost to the ceiling, and inside it was spacious, fresh, and white. The house was alr
NancyJake and I decided to take a longer car trip to New York, opting for the scenic route to avoid Bruce’s watchful eye and to seize the opportunity to spend more time together, enjoying the beautiful cities and the climate of traveling by car, thus getting in touch with nature in the south of the country. We left California a few days after arriving, heading for Texas via Arizona. Jake and I were eager to create pleasant memories; he even had an old Polaroid camera that developed the photo immediately after it was taken. Occasionally, we stopped in the middle of nowhere to walk hand in hand, stretching our legs and enjoying nature, since we were traveling by car. With Jake, I felt no rush to reach our destination because, with him, I felt like I had already arrived.“What a beautiful woman I have! Definitely a sight for sore eyes,” he commented passionately as I tried to concentrate on navigating the road stop.I laughed at his silliness and nearly veered off the road, distracted b
Amber Morton“Kris, your fake boyfriend got his girl pregnant, and you had the nerve to try to bribe the girl to get pregnant in exchange for money. All this so you can keep your name unsullied before the public? Wow, Amber! You really are a bitter girl, aren’t you?” A female voice said, and I knew that voice very well; it was the voice of Jade McLaughlin, my arch-enemy.I was still standing in front of the building where Kris lived. My heart almost stopped beating as I stared at my cell phone screen with a disbelieving expression. Had Jade found out about that? But I had barely left Kris' apartment. How come she already had this information? It was true that I had gone to meet Kris and his girlfriend to discuss her pregnancy. Kris and I had been maintaining a fake relationship for years, just to keep our status at the level it was at. It wasn't easy to stay famous, and always, in the trends of the moment, it was necessary to tell a lie here and there. Everyone did that in the celebr
Amber MortonWhen I woke up the next morning, chaos had really taken hold in the world of media. So much had happened that it was difficult to take it all in at once, but my advisor made sure to keep me up to date. They told me that after the photo I posted and after the gossip sites bombarded the internet with scandals about Kris, photos, videos, screenshots of his DM being an arrogant, abusive guy who had never really valued me, the basics of scandals that served to destroy someone's career, and the revelation that he had gotten another woman pregnant while still dating me, was the icing on the cake. In only one night, Kris' two million followers grotesquely plummeted to three hundred thousand, and several advertising companies and stretchers stopped following him too; that guy was completely canceled and wasn't going to bounce back so easily. Even the exposed that came out of me about Jade's recording, which seemed like I was bribing Kris's girlfriend so that she could terminate h
NancyAfter spending almost two weeks traveling by car, Jake and I finally arrived in New York. The car trip from Las Vegas to here was great, with stops to enjoy the landscape and dive into the crystal-clear waters of the Texas waterfalls. I had never experienced anything as exciting as what I've experienced with Jake so far; I looked like a child, radiant at finally finding my happiness in his company. Jake had a medium-sized flat in downtown Manhattan that he lived alone in. The place was well-equipped and bold, perfect for a single man. The house only had one bedroom, and the first thing I thought about was where my children would sleep if they came to visit me. “By the look on your face, it looks like you didn’t like the house very much,” he said with an embarrassed chuckle, and then scratched his head. “If you want, we can change the furniture; I don’t know. Bring more life to the place? It is like, I don't spend much time at home, so I kind of...”“Jake, you don't have to exp
Nancy“Oh, Jake. You really are old-fashioned. Even I have a profile on the social network! I was kind of forced to create it by my daughter; I even have, I don't know, a hundred thousand followers. I am not sure. Furthermore, I haven’t seen anything on social media in a long time,” I told him. “Hm, so you're famous, uh? With all this beauty, I wouldn't be surprised,” he said and sniffed my neck, making me laugh. "I am not! In fact, the most popular one is my daughter. Would you like to see her?” I took out my cell phone to show it to him. “I bet she's as pretty as you,” he said with a chuckle. “It’s quite possible that she’s even more beautiful than me,” I commented, logging into the app and searching for her profile name. I was shocked when I saw that she had almost ten million followers now. Some time ago, we were celebrating her reaching five million followers, and now she already has all that. “Wow! She's really becoming popular now,” I commented, suppressed. Jake peeked ove
NancyThe next morning, Jake woke me up very early, almost dawn. His docile voice in my ear was seductive. “Babe, wake up. I just want to say goodbye. I need to leave now to go to the police station where I work. I didn't want to leave without kissing you goodbye first,” he said when I woke up and looked at him with a sleepy face. The lighting in the room was dim, but I could see that he was wearing a black special forces uniform; he even had power.“Are you in uniform? My God, that's so sexy...” I mumbled, still sleepy, and sat on his lap, all sly, and started kissing and smelling him. He chuckled, but his hands were on my waist, hugging and caressing me. “Are you sure you'll be okay here alone? If you want, I'll arrange for you to come to work with me,” he suggested, caressing my back with those big, strong hands of his, sending goosebumps across my sensitive skin. “Um, I don't want everyone staring at me; besides, today I'm super sensitive; I'll be jealous of everyone close to y
NancyI knew Jake wouldn't like knowing that I had called Amber, but the day he became a father, he would understand my decision today. So I picked up my cell phone and called my daughter... Since I was using a new cell phone that didn't have my data on it, I dialed my daughter's private cell phone number, the same number I always used to call her. Her cell phone rang and rang, but no one answered and it ended up going to voicemail. I clicked my tongue and wanted to call again, but the doorbell at Jake's house rang, catching my attention. I looked towards the door, a little scared, when I saw the doorbell ringing. Not only that, but I didn't know what to think. Who could it be, anyway? Jake had texted me earlier, saying he was going to be a little late today, but he was going to be there at dinner time, but he didn't tell me that someone was coming here. The campaign rang again. I took the towel and cleaned my face, quickly applied light makeup to hide my crying face, and pulled my
