Dropping her phone on the seat, a smirk tugged on her lips, she would teach him a lesson, so next time he wouldn't mess with people's feelings. When she got to the company, she walked straight to the elevator, the guards already knew her so they allowed her in when they saw her. They only stopped her when perhaps their boss's wife was around.
Sophia pushed the door open without knocking, a brilliant smile on her lips;
“Honey, I've missed you!”
Benjamin rolled his eyes; she never had manners, ''why don't you ever knock, what if I was with someone?” he asked, trying to look angry, but he couldn't since his eyes were fixated on her boobs which she had purposely propped up.
Sophia bit her lip as she walked to him, kissing his lips;
''You would have told me if there was someone here;” she smiled and turned his seat, then squatted to her knees;
Although Benjamin had a son, he got married quite early, so he was still young,
Melinda rubbed her forehead; ''I adopted Blake Steels, and I kept him hidden until now because I knew someone was after Liam and if he knew about my son, he would try to kill him too,” her eyes turned to Benjamin who was staring back at her murderously, this was the first time he had ever been taken unawares.She chuckled; ''but now I see he has finally killed Liam, I decided to show my son to the family,”The room erupted in chaos again.“How sure are you that he killed Liam? Don't place accusations you aren't sure of!” Lillian exclaimed, venom seething through her nose, even if she didn't like Benjamin, she already had a plan of her own, so she didn't want one strange woman destroying her plans.''Well, who knows, don't you want an investigation done? Perhaps, something can be found?” She tilted her head to the side and stared at Benjamin pointedly as though she was extremely sure that he was the one that killed Liam.
''We don't have time for questions Miss, we'll kill your driver and take you with us if you don't comply.”Kate was not scared, she knew they wouldn't hurt her, but she was afraid for her driver; ''I'll follow you, but don't harm him.” She said, stepping out of the car.''Right, we won't but he is coming with us.” The man said and Kate breathed but she did not refute. She just came out of the car and followed him got into one of the cars and they drove off.Kate came out of the car as they held the door open for her, her eyes glanced at the building and her brows creased as she wondered who lived there, Benjamin or Melinda Steels?She was led into the house and to a beautiful room; ''stay here.” one of the guards said and left the room, locking it behind him. Kate walked to the couch and sat down, her eyes looking around the room.Although she was kidnapped, they didn't treat her like a prisoner, and well, she wasn't surpris
Kate stood up but just when she was about walking to the door, the door flung open and Lilian walked in with elegant steps. When Kate saw her she smiled brightly, just the right person she was looking for.''Why are you smiling?” Lillian raged as she walked to her. Her husband just told her the outcome of their discussion and she came to laugh at her that the only man who gave her a voice was gone, and now she would return to the shanty town where she came out of, but Kate just smiled when she saw her, did she take her for a fool?Kate walked back to the couch and sat down; “Lillian, were you always this loud and a trouble maker?” she asked with a hint of mockery in her words, Lillian’s face turned a shade of red;''How dare you?” she shouted with anger, fume foaming through her nose. She never liked this woman, right from the first day Liam introduced her to the family she hated her.Benjamin told her to watch her tongue in
Kate laughed; '' don't worry, I'm not going to tell him, he's as bad as you and even worse, so what's the use of telling him, I just want to know where he is.”Lillian breathed out in relief; ''he said he was leaving for an important event, don't know where or when he would be back,”Kate smiled; “great, now listen carefully;'' she paused making sure she had Lillian’s attention;''I want you to get my car and my driver ready, I want to go home.”Lillian’s lips paled; ''Benjamin instructed that we shouldn't let you go… ““Eeh… did I ask of what your husband said? I just told you what I want, are you in or out?” Kate asked with a tone of finality and Lillian bit her tongue. She knew who Benjamin was and right now, Kate staying here was the topmost priority to him, but in comparison with what could happen to her if she didn't let Kate go, she didn't have a choice.”''Prom
Benjamin ended the call and before Lillian could say a word, a slap landed on her chin. She stumbled backward to steady herself, her eyes seeing stars.''How dare you?” He didn't bother asking her if it was true or not, because he knew what she was capable of.Lillian bit her lower lip but she could not even defend herself. When he came back, she told him that Kate had threatened to go against the deal if she wasn't let go, she told him that because she knew how he would react if he knew that she was the one that let her go; she had told Kate earlier to cooperate with her, and she had agreed, but it seemed she just made a fool out of her.''Get out!” Benjamin blasted and Lillian sauntered out of the room before he would descend on her. She stood outside the door and she tried to touch her cheeks but it stung badly so she retracted her hands, it fell weakly to her side, as her head bowed.At that moment, she didn't know who she hated more, the
Lillian mind had not left what Kate told her a few days ago. No matter how much she tried not to think about it, she found herself going back to it over and over again. Finally, she gave yield to her thoughts and decided to search through Benjamin’s stuff.She was scared but then, it was the only way she could get her mind of those thoughts. If she checked his things and didn't see anything relating to Leah, then it would be clear that Kate was just trying to sow discord between them, but if she found anything…She didn't want to even think about that. Her heart raced through the ride home, thankfully, Benjamin had things to attend to, and he wasn't going to come back immediately, so she had time to check through his stuff.Lillian didn't want to search his stuff, not because she was scared of him, but because she didn't want it to be true. She knew who she married, and she had lived with him for years, so she knew what he was capable of. But
''Mom, I don't think we should be rejoicing yet,” Joshua said as they walked into their house, Blake was nowhere to be found ever since Liam went missing and Kate was happily giving the company over to her husband's killer.Even though he wanted to feel happy that he would soon be accepted into the family, he could not bring himself to. Melinda didn't reply, she just walked to her room and Joshua followed her;''I'm very worried about Blake’s disappearance, how could he disappear all of a sudden, just when we should have killed him.” One thing Joshua wasn't comfortable about is the fact that Blake was still breathing somewhere on the surface of the earth, they've tried to find him, but they couldn't.''You should be more concerned about the look on that girl's face when she looks at you, she knows about what happened 21 years ago but why she is keeping quiet is beyond me.” Melinda said sitting down on a couch and taking out her shoes.
Melinda laughed lightly; ''Oh, I'm sure about this. You are questioning the wrong person right now, and no matter how much you question me you aren't going to get anything from me because I'm not the killer and even if you go ahead and charge me, I'll be acquitted because all the evidence you have now is merely hearsay, and circumstantial, so I implore you to channel your grievance to the right person.” She concluded in one breath, leaving the police officers staring at her speechlessly.Melinda spoke confidently as though she was sure of what she was saying. And she actually made sense, but they weren't going to conclude until they looked into it.“Do you have any further questions for my client, officer?” the lawyer who a was sitting by her side quietly,spoke and the police officer gritted his teeth.''No further questions, you can leave now.”“Thank you,” Melinda smiled and they stood up to leave, she had
Jayden smiled as he walked to his room and looked at his reflection in the mirror. His fingers ruffled his hair, and he wondered if he should get a new hairstyle. Striding sluggishly to his bed, he fell on it. Madison… He thought, a smirk on his lips. He could not get her out of his head after that heated night of passion. He had not done something so wild before; sleeping with someone he didn't know for the first time. It was crazy. After that day, he had intended to forget about her, but after seeing her application letter to work in his company, he couldn't get her off his mind. He wanted to have a taste of it again, but this time, with her name on his lips, that was if she was up for it. But judging from how she had acted, he wasn't sure she wanted to do it again. He was brought back from his thoughts when his phone rang. He swiped when he saw the caller; Ivy… '' ''hey, babe, you up for some party tonight?'' she asked. He could hear her tossing things about in the background
''Pft, what a very sad life you live. '' Elle said, giggling lightly. Jayden ruffled her hair;''It's not, it's even more peaceful than most. ''''Nah, I highly doubt. But I still wish you'll fall in love someday, even if not with Ivy, with someone who would love you just the same.''Jayden laughed; ''Don't tell me you're already in another relationship, Elle. You just broke up two weeks ago! '' Jayden just guessed, but when he saw the smile on her chin, he knew he had suspected right;''You don't say!'' He laughed;''This one likes me a lot, Jayden, '' Jayden nodded; ''And so did the last one, ''Elle rolled her eyes. ''Well, that one was a cheat. ''Jayden was quiet for a moment, then he patted her hair; ''Just be careful, okay, you can take your time before getting into another relationship, you're still very young.''Elle stood up; ''it's getting late, are you going home or you're sleeping over?''Jayden smiled, seeing that she had smartly changed the topic. He just wanted her to
Jayden smiled when he saw the faint blush appear on her chin. It was hard to resist him; he had not met a woman who did.''So what do you say? Dinner by 6 on Saturday?'' He asked, shifting the strands of her hair to the back of her ear. She couldn’t breathe. The only thing she wanted at that moment was to escape from there, so she quickly nodded.Jayden smiled and stood upright; ''Okay, I'll pick you at your house.'' he said, walked to his car, and drove off, leaving her standing and looking incredibly shocked by what just happened.It took Mady a few minutes to realize that she had just agreed to a date with him. She grabbed her hair with one hand as she frowned intensely. What did she just do?***Jayden stared at her through his rearview mirror, a grin on his chin. He mentally thanked his car for getting hit that morning. After that day at his office, he had thought of a thousand ways to start a conversation with her without it being weird or out-of-place giving their encounter in
The rest of the week ran smoothly. Madison was surprised that Jayden did not speak or asked to see her after that first encounter. She was surprised, but at the same time, happy. Happy that it was as Zoey had said, there was nothing to it, it was just a one-night stand.She had bumped into ivy a few times, but she felt so guilty that she couldn't even look her in the eye. ivy was pretty with a hot body. She wondered what could make Jayden cheat on someone so perfect.But you can never understand people who think with their d*cks can you? I mean, she was perfect for her Ex, but he cheated more times than all the sex she had ever had in her entire life.Work was great. She changed her alarm wake-up time to 5:30, so she could be at the company very early. She did not want to get on the bad side of her seniors. But then, just when everything was going smoothly, something happened.Mady greeted her colleagues as she left the office. Walking to the parking lot, she beeped her car and walked
The two other employees glanced at Madison in shock. Did she just curse in front of the CEO? Was she asking to be sacked? Madison’s hands flew to her lips when she realized what she just did.''I'm sorry, sir. It was a slip of the tongue.'' She apologized, trying her best to avoid eye contact. Just what the hell did she get herself involved in?Jayden sat up in his chair; ignoring what just happened, he asked; ''Have you all been briefed?''"Yes, we have,'' they replied. ''Alright, you're welcome to Lincoln Corporation. I hope you enjoy working with us.'' He said and stood up, extending his hand for a handshake;The two employees shook him, and Madison stretched her shaky hands. Jayden smiled as he shook her. Nothing extra, but she felt shivers travel up her spine, and she quickly withdrew her hand.Jayden smiled and dismissed them. Ari was the first to turn around in a bid to escape quickly, but he was not done with her yet.“Madison Grey.'' He called and her legs came to a halt as
Madison slumped on her bed when she came back from the interview. She had taken a day's leave from work to go for the interview, and this was the last chance she had, else she would be stuck working for Clinics for a few more years. She didn't want that.Taking off her clothes, she cleaned up her house. She didn't have the time to clean up in the morning since she was in a hurry.As she cleaned her room, her thoughts drifted to the man from the previous night.Was she rude for sending him away like that? She thought.Then she shook her head. She would have made breakfast before he left, but she had an interview she couldn't miss. Besides, it was a one-night stand, they didn't know each other and Australia was too big of a place to meet a stranger twice.Changing her bedsheets. She put it into the washing machine and lay down for a movie.***Madison woke up the next morning and prepared for work, she quickly had breakfast and hurried out of the house, on the way, her phone buzzed and
Madison lost count of how many times they did it that night. Wild, passionate sex with no strings attached. It was nothing like she had ever felt. Morning came too quickly, as she was woken by her alarm. She had set an alarm for 6 because she had a job interview at Lincoln Corporation.She was an accountant. She had worked for a clinic for three years, but she wanted to move to a new environment and get better opportunities, plus she was having issues with her manager, and he was making work difficult for her.She had gone for a few interviews, but the companies were yet to call her back. Lincoln was her last straw. She jumped up from the bed naked and she hurried to the bathroom, but she stopped halfway when she noticed someone lying on the bed.Remembering her escapade, the previous night, she ran back to the bed and shook him roughly."Wake up! It's time to leave."Seeing him this morning, she noticed how great his body was. He looked like he worked out. He was sleeping with messy
21 years laterMadison touched up her already red lips as she smacked them."How do I look?" She asked, her best friend. Zoey was her childhood friend and they had been through all life's shit together."Hot, baby girl." She said, packing her hair up in a ponytail,"I'm going to get laid tonight." Madison said, and Zoey chuckled,"You get laid almost every night, not like this would be any different.""Well, it would cause I’ll be fucking a total stranger."Zoey’s eyes widened as she turned to her friend but before she could say a word, Madison walked out the restroom. Her friend had taken some alcohol earlier so she was a little high, so she wasn't sure if she was saying with her right senses."You are kidding right?" Zoey perverse as she followed Madison immediately,Madison smirked; "watch me." She said as her eyes scanned the crowd of screaming people in the club and her eyes stopped at a guy who was drinking alone at the bar.She smiled and walked to him before Zoey could stop he
Four years later."Jayden Smith, come back here!" Kate called as she watched her son leave his food and run to hug his father as he walked down the stairs, laughing mischievously.The little boy looked exactly like Liam, except he had his mother's eyes. Liam lifted his son up and kissed his fat cheeks as he carried him back to where his mom was sitting.Kissing her on the lips, he placed Jayden back in his chair. Kate glared at her son, and he laughed, showing off his developed milk teeth. She couldn't even get angry at him."How was your night, baby?" He asked as he tilted Kate’s head to look at him."Fine!" Jayden answered, before his mom could form words in her mouth. Kate and Liam burst out laughing."Jay, I was asking your mother." Liam said, patting his hair.Kate smiled. ''He likes you too much. '' she said;''It's obvious. '' Liam chuckled, patting Jayden hair again. Liam dotted on their son a little too much. It was as though he wanted to give him all the love he couldn't get
