Sighing, she continued washing her mouth. Liam had asked that she shouldn't worry about it, since he wasn't worrying either.
Worrying wasn't going to solve anything. After bathing, she had breakfast with irene and they left for the company together.
"Kate!" Tristin exclaimed when Kate and Irene stepped into the office and she embraced her in a friendly hug.
She hugged her back, "I'm so happy for you, Tris." She laughed, looking at her face with a smile. She was radiant and beautiful.
"Irene, how are you?". Tristin asked as she noticed her standing beside Kate.
"I'm fine. Congratulations, I heard the news from Kate."
"Thanks dear, come in and take a seat." She pointed towards the couch and they walked in.
"where is Tylor?" Kate asked as she sat down and as she asked, Tylor walked in,
"Congratulations!" she beamed with a smile as she clapped for him. Tylor laughed,
"thank you, Kate." His eyes turned to Irene wh
"why are you so cute?"Evie smiled sweetly; "Am I?"Blake’s eyes fell to her lips as she bit her lower lip, his Adam's apple bobbled,"Seductively…" His voice became low and husky. Her cheeks blushed when she saw the way he looked at her.His hands inched down and caressed her neck, pulling her close, she watched his head tilt to the side but just when he was about to kiss her, her stomach grumbled.Blake exhaled, and stood upright, "Let's go eat."She laughed as he held her hand and walked them to the dining."wow!" he exclaimed, her eyes scanning the dishes on the table, it was filled with all kind of delicacy."this is… just wow… are we celebrating something?""Is it too much?" he looked at the table."No, not at all, it's perfect. Thank you. But…when did you get off work to prepare all these?""Um…I skipped work today,""Aw, you didn't ha
Her lips fell open, "You already have a ring?"He smiled and pinched her chin, "Just tell me whenever you're ready and we're getting married the next day."Her cheeks turned a shade of red and she swallowed the food in her mouth. He was serious.Evie was about to say something she heard her phone ringing from the room, so she went to answer the call. When she returned, Blake asked who it was,"it was my dad, he is wedding in a few days, he wants me to be present." She had no expression on her face when she said it, so Blake wondered if she was angry,"are you going?"Evie chuckled and took her position on his thigh, "of course. I told you I'm no longer annoyed about it. Let's go together.""Okay."After dinner, they washed the dishes together, before Blake went in to shower and she lay on the bed. When he stepped out, the bathroom lights were turned off, his brows creased as he searched for the switch and turned it back on and
"Pft, I thought you said you had someone you liked?" she asked,"Well, I don't know, I'm indecisive."Kate smiled, "Okay, but Charles is quite a catch, just in case you are ready to make a choice."Irene laughed, "Okay."The hall was already buzzing when they got in. Kate’s eyes searched for the celebrant, that was her purpose of being here, after greeting him, she might leave."Oh there he is!" Irene exclaimed when she saw him with a group of friends.Tugging Kate along, they walked to him,"Happy birthday Charles." She said with a smile, and his smile widened when he saw her,"Irene…" He walked to her, a glimmer in his eyes and he hugged her,"thanks for coming."Irene smiled and gave him the gift, "Why wouldn't I come.""Thank you.""Happy birthday Charles," Kate said and he turned to her,"Kate, it's a pleasure to have you here. Thanks for coming. Come on, come have a sit here
Irene’s steps faltered when her eyes caught the familiar manly frame, as he stared at the beautiful city lights. She watched at his back for a moment then proceeded towards him.That night was really messed up, although she was mad and very angry she didn't intend to take it out on Stephen. She would apologize and make it clear to him that she liked someone else."Charles….” She called, he didn't turn around but she felt his back tense. Walking closer, she stopped when she was standing behind him."I'm sorry about earlier, I was not myself, something happened."He didn't reply her but Irene knew he heard her. She stayed quiet as she waited for him to reply. She was surprised that he was still persisting even after turning him down severally.Maybe that was why she felt bad after what she did to him earlier. But that did not mean that she liked him…Finally, he turned to look at her, she swallowed as his eyes stayed
The phone rang a few more times and she angrily put it on do not disturb and continued sleeping.After about an hour, she heard a knock on her door, but she didn't budge, the knock came a few more times before she stood up and walked to it.Kate stood on the other side, her eyes staring at her in shock."Why are you still in your party clothes, are you just coming back? " She asked looking concerned, Irene was in no mood to talk."No, I came back last night, but was too tired to get changed.""Oh…okay, then go take a bath now and wash off the mascara hued over your face.""Ah… alright,""I was calling earlier; you didn't pick so I came to check if you came back. Sorry for not asking yesterday, I strangely slept off and hubby even had to carry me."Irene’s throat tightened. Here she was a mess, while Kate who she had planned everything for, just had the best time with her husband."Haha, thank God he came else you would have slept in the hotel, because I won't be carrying your ass." Sh
"So who do you care about?" she asked with a grin on her chin. She knew she was the one but she just wanted to hear him say it."Someone not tall and super shy."Evie laughed, "Is that all?""And beautiful and fuckin amazing."She blushed, "And?"Blake smirked, his eyes still on the food, "And who makes me crazy about her."She blushed and kissed his chin."I love you too babe, very much."Blake grinned, he didn't need someone to tell him that, he knew she was so freaking in love with him.***"Hi, Kate…""Oh my God, Irene, I've been calling you like in forever, what happened? Why did you leave? Where are you?"Kate sat up on the bed as she asked, she was surprised when she saw her phone ringing and it was Irene calling. Her eyes flashed on the wall clock and she noticed it was past eleven in the night.Irene laughed, "Sorry for not picking your call, I went out for a walk and I left my phone in my bag, I'm just coming back to the room now."Kate sighed, "Irene, you got me so worried.
Two days later…Blake looked up from his pc when he heard a commotion outside his office, before he could call his secretary to ask what was going in, his door flung open and Alexia barged inside followed by a distraught looking secretary."I tried to stop her…" He said, Blake sighed and waved at him to leave. When he had left, his eyes turned to Alexia angrily."What do you want?" He asked in the most irked tone she had ever had, Alexia shuddered but immediately gained her composure.Walking towards his table, she sat down without permission."Can you sit down and hear me out?""I didn't give you the permission to come into my office, so you better start talking unless you want me to call the security on you."Alexia looked up at him, her eyes watered, she bit her lip and took a deep breath, "I saw that you made your relationship with that woman public."Blake stared at her, he didn't even deem it fit to reply her."Is that what you caused all these commotions for?""If you would onl
Blake woke up with a banging head, the clouds had darkened, he placed his hand on his forehead for a second and jumped up when he remembered what happened that day,Evie…What would she be thinking now?Grabbing his keys, he ran out of the office. he brushed his hand through his head as he drove speedily, he didn't even know where to go. He called her over and over but she didn't pick.It was his fault; he shouldn't have trusted that witch. And the fact he didn't even call her all day…"F*ck…please pick the phone…"Blake drove to his house first, without parking properly he jumped out of the car, running into the house. He pushed the doors open in a haste, screaming her name.His feet stopped at a spot when he saw her step out of the kitchen. She was holding a towel in hand and she wiped her wet hands, her hair was tied up and she looked like she was sweating.When she saw him, she stretched her lips into a smile."I was waiting for you." She said, smiling faintly as she placed the to
