Lerisa got into her bedroom and called Remy's phone line to thank him for taking her out and helping her secure a job in a new telecommunication company."Hello," Lerisa said as soon as the phone call connected."Yeah, good evening babe," Remy replied."I really appreciate your help earlier today, after seeing Anthony there at the roadside. Anthony just couldn't mind his own business," Lerisa said while explaining to Remy in his office that Anthony was still against her dating him."Don't mind Anthony. He is only being childish. What's his business with you, and why can't he keep his distance?" Remy inquired, sounding annoyed."I don't know. Can you believe that I also saw Anthony in his car at my father's house gate after I had arrived home. I fear that Anthony may show up at my father's house gate tomorrow again to disturb me. He keeps on saying that I am his sister, and I have told him that we are unrelated several times.""Hmm, Anthony wouldn't dare. He isn't that jobless, so you d
Lerisa assisted her mother in the kitchen in preparing their dinner. They had their dinner in the dining room; however, Lerisa avoided eye contact with James, as she knew that he was still perplexed about Benita and Anthony dating.Done with all their dinners, Lerisa found herself in the kitchen washing the dirty dishes, but James did not bother her again to make inquiries about Benita.Lerisa finally returned to her bedroom and lay on her bed and slept off.The sound of her room alarm clock woke her up from sleep. Lerisa got out of her bed and prepared to go to Remy's hotel to meet him there, so she could start her new job.She took a bath. Shortly after, she wore a seductive red dress that exposed her back.Lerisa was satisfied with how the red dress accentuated her hips and pushed up her chest, exposing her cleavage.She smiled at her reflection and thought about applying makeup on her face, as she had learned from Martha. She stood in front of her room mirror and put on makeup, pai
"How are you doing today?" Anthony inquired of Benita. The time was 6 pm when Anthony was through inspecting his house and he stood beside his sleek black car to know where Benita was."I am fine, I am at home. How was work today? I am sorry for not showing up at the company today," Benita said, sounding calm on the phone."It's alright. I understand your compliant. But that doesn't mean that you should be avoiding to call or you shouldn't request to see me. You can always come to the company to visit me if you want to," Anthony said, and Benita responded, "Okay. I will keep that in mind. Maybe by Friday, as I still would like to rest throughout this week, and until the weekend.""Hmm, so can we see? I want us to meet somewhere special. I am still processing all that you have said to me," Anthony said, and Benita replied, "Alright. Do you want to meet with me today?""Yes. Or are you not free for us to hang out? I want to show you something, and I am serious about the two of us getting
"Uhm, okay," After much hesitation, Lerisa finally accepted Emma's phone and input her phone number into the latest mobile she saw that Emma was using."I have saved my phone number into your phone. I have to go now," Lerisa said, standing up from her seat."Thank you, I will call you later. Take care of yourself," Emma replied, watching Lerisa step out of their table of two seats at the private section. Lerisa hoisted her handbag onto her shoulder and smiled at Emma as she finally left the car.Walking up to her car, Lerisa sighed as she got into her car and shut the car door behind her."Wow, so Remy truly wants to marry me. I never knew that he was so serious. Can someone marry a man that they don't really love? Does love truly grow with time in getting to know someone just like how I have gotten to know Anthony for all my life? Growing up and thinking that Anthony will marry me. Hmm," Lerisa had a frown on her face. She knew all along that Remy was serious about her, but she was st
"Nothing. I was just thinking that I hadn't expected you to purchase the house so quick. Are you truly serious about marrying me? Don't you think that it's too early for us to marry and settle down as a couple now?" Benita inquired once more, and Anthony could sense that she didn't want to marry him."What's wrong, babe? Don't you want to marry me?" Anthony asked finally. The look of hurt flashing in his eyes, and Benita quickly replied, "No. Don't get me wrong, Anthony. I was only thinking that we haven't dated for long for us to settle down quickly. I mean, we were supposed to still date for at least six months plus to determine if we can be compatible. I don't know if you are understanding what I mean."Anthony looked at Benita in disbelief. He sighed and looked away from her. His mother was right, no lady should pressure him into moving out of his parents' house and buying a house compulsorily for her."It's okay if you don't want to marry me. You can leave," Anthony said, turning
Anthony got home to his father's mansion, and it was already late at night. He saw his phone ringing. Taking out his phone and thinking that his mother was the one calling him, but when he stared at the caller's name and saw Benita's name on his phone screen, Anthony frowned and threw his phone back into his trouser side pocket.He shut his car door, which automatically locked, and walked up towards their mansion's facade to go into the house.Mr. Joshua Gregson was in the living room alongside his wife, who looked worried after contacting Anthony on the phone and hearing that he sounded dull.Mrs. Beatrice didn't believe that Anthony had not packed out. She thought he had evacuated their house without informing her first."What's the matter?" Mr. Joshua inquired. However, as Mrs. Beatrice wanted to reply, the sound of their television speaking in the living room and displaying the latest news interrupted. Anthony eventually approached the door, rang the bell, and entered the living ro
The following day, Benita arrived at L.H Group to Anthony in his office. She had simply forgotten that James had resumed working in L.H Group.James didn't take over Lerisa's office as Anthony's secretary. He was posted to the financial team to work with them, and there he learned about Benita's affairs with Anthony.James was disappointed to learn that Benita and Anthony were having an affair before she left. Most of the staff also didn't know why Benita left L.H Group.Some had thought maybe Anthony did something wrong to Benita or cheated on her, but none of the staff working in the accounting office could give an account of why Benita left.As Benita arrived at L.H Group, she hadn't thought of seeing James. She was stunned, so she quickly came up with a lie as James met her on the third floor."Benita, what are you doing here?" James asked. He wore a white shirt and black pants as he approached Benita.Benita wore a cream-colored short skirt and blue top, paired with her black purs
"Benita, you know that's not possible for me not to invite my parents if we decide to host the housewarming party. For now, I haven't informed them yet of the new house location. It's okay, when you're ready you can let me know," Anthony said. He was not happy to know that Benita was hesitant to marry him. She sat across from him and finally said, "Okay. I will be expecting your call to hear the date of the housewarming. But what car did you purchase for me?""Not to worry, when the day arrives you will see it. Or do you want me to fix the housewarming this weekend," Anthony said."No. Whenever you're ready too. I just want to see the car," Benita lied, looking hopefully at Anthony's face. He took out his phone and showed her the Range Rover Sport that he purchased for her.Benita leaped for joy and wanted to receive the car immediately. "Please, can you take me to see the car. I really do like it," Benita begged."No. Let me settle with everything first. Probably next weekend. I will
