Alexandra had started sleeping by this time because she wasn’t expecting the Laurents to come back.Immediately after the girls were brought into the Meeting Room, Kirklin quietly exclaimed “Wow”. Both girls tilted their heads at the same time in his direction and he was in awe as he saw them. They were simply adorable. It was such a beautiful moment for him and he requested to carry them.He was given an overall to wear as well as a nose mask. He cuddled them in his arms and felt like having them to himself.He carried both of them at the same time and asked Mrs. Laurent to take a picture of them. He had a sweet feeling when he saw his picture with them. “The girls sure know how to smile,” he said and the adults in the room all laughed at his comment.It wasn’t long before the twins started to sleep in his arms and they beamed a smile from time to time as they slept. Kirklin laughed lightly when he saw how awesome they looked in his arms.He requested to meet their mum but was told s
Months ago, Kirklin had told his triplet brothers; Kevin and Kendrick that his pregnant girlfriend left him for good.Kevin knew about the girl because Kirklin had told him how much he wanted to pursue her when he saw her while he was in the process of acquiring the London Company. He had even encouraged him to go ahead then and he told him about his own interest in Ariella whom he had just met at the airport.The brothers were all always trying their best to help Kirklin out emotionally ever since and hoped his pregnant girlfriend would have a change of heart and come back.It was in the middle of the night in Paris when Kevin and Ariella’s flight landed. He informed Kirklin of their arrival when their flight landed and went straight to the hospital with Ariella.On getting to the front desk, they could only allow Ariella in because she was the only one that Alexandra had requested a pass for and they couldn’t contact her to request a pass for Kevin because she was still sleeping.Ar
It had happened that after Ariella Dawson had checked in for her flight to Hong Kong and was going to the boarding gate, some coincidences happened between her and the gorgeous Kevin Jefferson.Kevin was on his usual business trips around the world. He was in charge of the Oil and Gas subsidiary of their huge family business so he traveled far and near to non-oil producing countries to build more relationships with governments of various countries as well as top organizations.While he was waiting for his connecting flight at the airport, he decided to move around the transit area to have a view as a normal traveler would do instead of staying in the exclusive first-class lounge as he did all the time. As he took a few steps, he saw this beautiful half-caste lady walk past him. Looking at her from her back view, someone could have taken her to be his mum or sister because she had their exact type of callipygous figure.Kevin was mesmerized and for the first time, his heart skipped a b
The customer service staff furrowed her eyebrows as she said “Oh sorry Sir, 17C is gone. What about I give you 17H…It’s an aisle seat on the same row but on the other end of the aircraft… It’s still free… Can I quickly pick that seat for you before another Agent at the Check-in counter gives it out? She asked.“Oh no, please get me 17C. Here is my boarding pass, upgrade whoever is on that seat to take my First-Class seat” He said as he stretched his boarding pass to her.The lady gasped when she saw that he was a Diamond Card holder with the airline which meant that he was one of the very few people that held such cards.“Sir, 17C is an Economy-Class Seat,” She said confused. After Economy, we have Business Class, then First Class….. I’m sorry….. I mean….. Do you really have to seat beside the lady on 17A?”Kevin nodded as he tapped his fingers on her desk.“Owkay….em… What if I upgrade her to seat with you in First Class?The Agent said this because she didn’t need to seek approval t
While at the boarding gate, Kevin kept on admiring Ariella from a distance and he had a seductive smile on his face all through. His concentration on her was disrupted by a call from his precious mum.“Good morning Momma-licious,” He said with a very cute smile as he was always excited to talk to his mum who was beautiful in and out. He had a dimple on one side of his cheeks just like her.“Hi my Sugar-Pie, we’ve missed you so much….. How are you? …..Have you eaten or you’ve been engrossed in video meetings” His mum asked all in one breath.“No mum, I’m waiting to board my flight” Kevin repliedWhile he spoke, someone popped his head into the video, and yes; it was his handsome dad.His dad looked at him and mimicked his son’s usual gesture of tapping his fingers on the table and he smiled. He does that to Kevin any time they are on a video call. He purposely tilted the camera to show his fingers tapping on the table so Kevin could see.“Ha-ha-ha, Paps, you just like to mimic me…anywa
Kevin looked at the person that pushed him off and saw that it was the man that was upgraded to his seat.His parents had trained their children never to have altercations with anyone so it had become part of him never to have quarrels with people.As other passengers ranted over the man’s action because he also pushed them, Kevin calmly shoved his act off naturally and moved aside so the rude man could pass. He was glad that Ariella wasn’t the one pushed off by the indisciplined man because he knew it would have been a different story as he would never have allowed the man to go without bearing the consequences of his unruly action. He would have shown him a tiny tip of his ruthlessness.The man moved further and pushed some more people off the way so he could pass and he shouted “Will you all clear out of the way? I’m a First-Class passenger”While some passengers burst into laughter, others confronted him and ordered him to apologize to them. The man was surprised and wondered what
Meanwhile, during the time that Ariella was busy on the call with Alexandra, the phone of Kevin too rang. It was a call from one of his brothers; Kirklin. Both Ariella and Kevin ended their phone calls almost at the same time. She briefly heard Kevin end his call with a ‘love you too’. She didn’t know why she became jealous all of a sudden. It appeared to her that Kevin had a girl in his life already.Both of them clicked their seat belts in readiness for take-off and their eyes met while doing that. Kevin smiled at her but Ariella changed her gaze immediately and concentrated on changing her phone to airplane mode. She didn’t know that the way she changed her gaze made Kevin fall in love with her more.It was going to be a long flight to Hong Kong and Ariella brought out a novel to read in order to avoid communicating with Kevin but he wasn’t moved as he knew the trick to make her talk to him. He brought out his Macbook to attend to a couple of emails. When he opened it, his mum’s pi
After Kevin’s business meetings, he met with Ariella and they hung out for the whole day. He liked her personality and described her as sweet and spoiled and she made him laugh so hard during their time together. Ariella was very open with him and they discussed different things; from family, school life, and dating experiences even their cravings for sex.Kevin wished to spend some more time with her but he had to depart for the US the next day because of an important meeting that had been scheduled over three months ago.Since Ariella was going to resume her work in the US, she needed some time to sort out her accommodation when she gets there so she booked to stay in an Airbnb for a week so she could use that time to look for accommodation.Kevin had offered that she stayed in his apartment pending the time she got an apartment but she declined. He didn’t want to appear as being forceful so he asked her to call him when she arrives in the US so he could accompany her to search for
Alexandra and Kirklin decided to let bygone be bygone and start their marriage on a clean sheet. Kirklin was grateful that she had the heart to still forgive him despite all he did to her. He promised to stay by her side and be the best husband to her till death do them part. He took her to his parent's house that evening and Keith and Kelsey were happy that he had decided to turn over a new leaf and treat his wife rightly. Kirklin called Samantha after they got back to their house to inform her that he wasn't interested in their affair anymore and warned her he would get the police involved if she made any attempt to come near him. Samantha was heartbroken by the call and she knew that was the end to the money she was collecting from Kirklin. She decided to focus on her other clients to siphon money from them. Kirklin was too ashamed of himself so he needed to ensure Alexandra got her health and good looks back. He took her on a one-month honeymoon to Hawaii where both of them hope
On his last attempt at checking the presidential suites, he knocked on the door of the last suite and there was no response. By this time, the crew had deployed the rescue boats and had started moving passengers into them based on levels of vulnerability.Kirklin banged on the door several times and he suspected Alexandra must be inside as the other 9 suites had other occupants.He dashed off to a tool room that was nearby and he got an axe which he used to successfully break open the door. Alexandra was sleeping beautifully under the duvet and Kirklin shouted her name which made her jump. She was at first annoyed as to why he was on the cruise, and he had forcefully come into her room.“There’s an emergency sweetheart… People are being evacuated…. Come with me now” he said hurriedly.She was so scared that she didn’t know what to do and the ship appeared to have tilted its side. Kirklin asked her to put on her pair of jeans immediately and a coat so as to keep warm a little. He hande
Kirklin regretted how he had caused their beautiful love affair that started as a CEO-Assistant relationship to deteriorate to the extent that he assaulted, abused, and victimized her. He hated himself for all his actions, but he had to sort Alexandra out first before he would think of himself. Alexandra cried so much and became very tired. Kirklin carried her to sit on the sofa and put her head on his chest so she could let out her tears. She narrated how she had attempted suicide and Kirklin pleaded with her never to think of suicide as an option to get out of a messy situation. “Sweetheart, suicide is not an option when you are in trouble. Think of what could happen positively the next minute you are gone. Think of the sorrow you would cause your loved ones after you are gone. I know life could be hard at times but there is always light at the end of every tunnel. All that is required is to hold on just one more time. I’m glad that you were able to speak with your foster parents
Kirklin hugged her and said “Babes, please forget all that happened and let’s start afresh, can we?”. He asked with a puppy face that he hadn’t made in years. Alexandra looked away as she couldn’t answer him because he had deeply injured her self-esteem, deprived her of a good life, and victimised her. “It’s not as easy as you think, Kirklin… I’m the one that went through the awful things and it’s difficult to live with the same man that caused my heartache” she replied. “I understand Xandra, I will not force you but please withdraw the divorce and let us concentrate on building our lives around these kids first, please… Now that they’ve started to have a balanced life, let’s not disrupt it with our marital issues”. He pleaded. Alexandra’s whole existence was for her kids as they were the priority she wouldn’t trade for anything. She said to him “Kirklin, now that you are the father of some of my babies, I would want you to be a part of their lives because it has always been my in
Kirklin got up, threw a fist in the air, and sat back on the bed. He didn’t understand how he got himself into this huge mess. “How can I convince Xandra that I’m sorry and let her know I won’t repeat any of those behaviors again?” He thought. “The poor girl cannot even trust or love you anymore, d*ckhead!” He exclaimed to himself as he smacked his forehead. He brought the bracelet out from his pocket and opened the drawer that Alexandra had brought it out from in order to return it. As he opened the drawer, he saw a very familiar item; his executive pen that had gone missing some years ago. He was confused over why it was in Alexandra’s drawer as he had never used that bedroom for anything. “This pen got missing at the hotel in Paris if I’m not mistaken?” he thought. Suddenly the door opened and he looked back. It was Alexandra who had come to pick up her things as she was ready to leave his house for good and stay with her parents-in-law pending the finalization of their divorce
Kirklin suddenly came to his senses as soon as he saw the original bracelet. He shouted repeatedly “Ohhh my goodness… Ohh my goodness…. Oh my goodn… {he then burst into tears at the revelation}. He continued to bawl uncontrollably as he recalled all that have happened over the years that he was blinded to. *** He just realized that it was Alexandra whom he accidentally took her first time at the restroom in Paris, and she was the one he gave the bracelet *** *** It just occurred to him that the accidental pregnancy that caused the turmoil in their relationship was his *** ***He thought, as he continued to cry upon realizing that the twin girls Abrielle and Annabelle are his biological children ***. This particular thought made him cry a lot in regret of his actions. *** “So, Alexandra has been innocent all these while and I messed up her life and mine as well”. He thought. *** *** If only he had been patient enough for her to explain herself on that day at the hospital, they cou
As Alexandra turned back to ask Kirklin about the bracelet, she saw him looking dejected and sad. “Could he be truly sorry?” She thought to herself but she soon shoved off the feeling as he didn’t deserve her empathy and she further determined in her heart to remain focused on their divorce. Kirklin, I never meant to intrude into your private life and I have never taken any of your things before. But there was a day I needed some money to go to the hospital and you wouldn’t give me any so I came here to check if I could find any amount to take me to the hospital but I didn’t see any money so I left.Kirklin continued to look at her calmly as she spoke. “I checked that last drawer and saw 2 bottles of perfume and a bracelet. Where did you buy the bracelet?” she asked. Kirklin didn’t understand what she meant at first as he appeared lost. He furrowed his eyebrow and said, “The bracelet?” “Yes, can I go and bring it out,” she asked. “Sure,” Kirklin said as he stretched out his hand
“Same with me” Alexandra cuts in. “But there was no how you could father another man’s child and you wouldn’t be able to trust me again due to what happened. By the way, you’ve been saying I almost made you lose your life and left you unconscious for months because of the feelings you had for me. Do you know I was the one that called the emergency service for help when I saw you unresponsive in your car?”“You did whaaat! Exclaimed Kirklin.“Yes, I banged on your car door consistently to get you up and I got drenched in the heavy rain with my suitcases. You were able to control your car to open and you were lucky enough that the ambulance arrived at the nick of time. Kirklin, I allowed every ill feeling we had during the day pass because I needed you to be alive and have a good life even if it would be without me. Unfortunately, you came back to life to take my own life…. That same night, I asked the front desk personnel if I could see the man that was just brought in whom I had calle
Alexandra looked at him and said “Sir, I think it’s rather late for any compromise. It’s okay if we talked about all that happened but it won’t change my mind cos you have completely ruined my life over the fact that I was unknowingly pregnant for someone else while in a relationship with you…. Kirklin, I lost my virginity accidentally to a stranger and I didn’t know that I was pregnant as a result of the mistake. You and I started an affair a few days after the act and I didn’t know that I was pregnant, else I wouldn’t have agreed to be your girlfriend. If you remember clearly on the Saturday meeting that you fixed…... {sniffs back tears} …I was really sad and you wanted to know what was wrong with me but I was not comfortable divulging it to you then. I was devastated by the mistake I made that led to me losing my virginity. We started dating a few days later and by this time, you had brought so much joy to me that I completely forgot about the horrible event which made me very sad
