Married On A Whim CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT - JONATHAN BAILEY
Jonathan Bailey sat in his office that day and sighed. After that night of drinking in Andrew's house, he had been a mess. He didn't know how or when but he had fallen in love with his sister-in-law, Amelia.At first, it was just a kind of curiosity to know her as a sister-in-law, but after a while, he just found out that he couldn't stop thinking about her.He never knew that he could fall in love until he met her. He had met a lot of women in the past but no one could stir his heart like she did. Being LA’s most dashing young man, a lot of women had thrown themselves at him but he never had interest in them.Knowing Nathaniel, the latter would not forgive him if he found out that he had fallen for his wife and so he had kept this secret with him. But it was killing him inside and he needed to tell someone.His mother had not been lenient on him either. She had introduced a lot of women to him in the past and matched him with a lot of socialites. He had gone on more blind dates than

“So have you found out who the person was?“Yes and no”“So there's good news and there's bad news”“I found out that the person is the owner of the Doja syndicate”The Doja syndicate! That was one of the largest establishments in the world. It did make sense for someone as powerful as that to be in the group. “So what's the bad news?“The bad news is that no one has seen the owner. The person works remotely and uses the vice chairman to act out the orders. We tried to investigate further but we have been met with a dead end. “It's as if the person knew we were investigating them and deliberately made things difficult for us”.Jonathan sighed as he heard what David had said. He had tried to join a secret organization made up of the strongest business moguls in the world. He had managed to stumble on this person and had tried to track the person down.He knew he was very lucky to have even found out that the person was part of the secret organization. He told David about it and toget

Amelia was confused and surprised when she discovered who had tampered with her car. She would have never suspected it. She didn't have any bad blood with this person and the person went as far as even damaging her car. She could have died tonight and she wouldn't even know what had happened.It was understandable if it was her stepsister who was behind it. But it was someone she had just met that day. She had to inform Sylvie about this. But first, she would deal with this person herself.She picked up her phone and dialed Ann's line. Like her subordinate, Ann didn't waste time in picking up the phone.“Good day, ma. Are you done with the gathering? Do you need anything?“Yes, I am done. I need you to send a car to the Grand Palace Lounge hotel parking lot. It is the venue of the gathering I went to and sent for a tow vehicle to pick up the car that I came with. Some issues had arisen with it and I can no longer use it. I'll need you to be quick on this. I don't want to stay here for

Sandra's face fell as she overheard what her father had said. Her father was an abusive man but ever since his company was doing well, he had become nicer. He was said to be like a chameleon and only wore bright colors whenever he was not having difficulty with business.But she was not afraid though. Even though her father was a brute, he had always treated her well. She was his favorite child and had even with the aid of her connections in the gathering of socialites got him so many contracts in the past. She was sure that what she wanted to ask him for would not be denied.With that confidence, she sauntered into her father's study. When she entered her mother was holding her cheek with her palm but it was not enough to hide the hand print that was imprinted on her face due to the slap. She gritted her teeth in silence. She had always hated this side of her father but she could not do anything except work hard to make sure that he was happy and not abusive. Seeing her mother like t

Sandra immediately panicked. How was she to pay the agreed sum of money now? The man hadn't even done the job he had been contracted for and now he was asking her to pay him. What audacity?She knew that getting anything from her father now would not be possible. She racked her brains with how she could get hold of the money now. Fortunately for her, she had some jewelry in her possession that she could sell that would be up to the amount that was asked.She quickly left the study and headed to her room. She quickly packed the jewelry into a bag and wanted to go to the jeweller until she stopped. What if the guy had made backups of the evidence? If he did then he would continue to blackmail her and there was nothing she could do.She moved to her drawer and headed for the gun she had placed in there. Instead of giving the guy this large sum of money, she would just end him and make sure he never talks again. With that conviction, she dropped the jewelry and headed out.She called the

Nathaniel sat in his office reviewing some papers. He appeared to look disturbed and confused as his mind was not in the work that he was doing. He had sat there for nearly two hours but had not been able to finish the review of the documents in his hands since.This was unlike him. If anything, he was poised, focused and determined. He did not allow himself to be distracted and had always prided himself to be a very disciplined individual but he couldn't fathom why he was not able to get any work done.His mind kept going back to a light green-eyed woman who had a curvy figure and long brunette hair. This woman was naturally his wife Amelia. He didn't know why but he felt some kind of indescribable emotions when she had talked about her fiance the other day. He had never felt this way before.And the next night, she didn't even bother to come home. Was she avoiding him? Or maybe she has fallen for him. If that was so then his purpose of marrying her would have been fulfilled. It woul

With that resolution now formed in his mind, he sniffed out the cigarette in his hand and put it in the bin. He was now clear-headed and could now continue his work. But he could not deny it though. Amelia was a very smart woman and had taken the stock prices of the company to five times the value at which she met it.Under normal circumstances, such a woman was fit to stand by his side as his subordinate. With his hidden persona as a terrifying figure. It would be good if he had a loyal follower who was very good in business. Not that he lacked any though, but he always had an eye for talent.Maybe, if she did very well. He would invite her to be part of them. No! Forget it. That would just be giving her power wott which she would have no use of after she had taken away her company. He quickly composed himself and picked up the documents this time. He was super that he would get the job done in no time. He had always studied himself in his incredible speed of getting things done.Tha

Andrew immediately picked up the phone to call his friends but he immediately decided against it. Those two workaholics might not come if they knew that they were going to have fun on Nathaniel's island. He knew what he should do to get them to come.He stretched his hand towards Nathaniel. “Give me your phone. I want to send a message to both of them”.Nathaniel grunted. He wondered what Andrew wanted to do now. “What do you want to do? And why do you need my phone? Why can't you use yours?“Don't you know those workaholic friends of yours? If I tell them that we are going to relax and have fun, they would not come so I figured it coming from you would be better. After all who hates fun more than you?”“Ok,” Nathaniel nodded as he handed his phone to Andrew. This friend of his was really mischievous and only just liked to joke around.Andrew immediately collected the phone from Nathaniel and texted both Jonathan and David. He smiled as soon as he was done. He knew that he would expec

Married On A Whim CHAPTER HUNDRED – PARALYZED
Thud! Ann immediately flew some tables away and coughed up blood as Amelia's fast reflexes kicked in and she gave her a flying kick. Ann was mad with anger but was also in a lot of pain. She never expected Amelia to be able to deflect her attack and even cause her such an injury. There was really a lot she didn't know about her and she could not even afford to mess with her.She knew that she was done for and knew that Amelia would probably not let her go so she tried to get up on her feet and run away but she found out that no matter how she tried to get up, she just couldn't. The fall from the kick had been so bad that she had been paralyzed in her lower back and so was not able to get up.She panicked as she tried once again to get up but she couldn't. “What have you done to me you bitch. Why can't I get up? Come and do something. I can't get up. I can't get up” She wailed as she knew that she was finished. Apart from being unemployed, she was now paralyzed. This was just too much.
Married On A Whim CHAPTER NINETY-NINE – TRUE COLORS
Ann almost fell from her seat when she saw the photos. She never expected that Amelia was aware of the secret that she had been trying to hide for long. She instantly shivered at the thought of this, Amelia could destroy her life entirely and there was nothing she could do about it.“How did you get those pictures?”“That's not the question you should be asking. I know about everything, your plan to sabotage me. Did you really think that it could escape my notice? You truly haven't learned a thing from being around me. You ought to have learnt something and here I was thinking that you were smart. You are clearly just a dummy.”Ann clenched her teeth. She wanted nothing but to rip the photos in front of her to shreds. She had just gone out for one night of enjoyment and she was being dealt with like this. The only thing left for her was to beg. If she played it well Amelia could forgive her and even help her flush out the person.“I didn't mean to do it. I was being blackmailed by som

“Nothing. Is there anything to feel about him? He is just a business partner.”Ann sighed. It seemed that she may not be able to get anything out of her concerning that. Well, she would find out more when they have eaten to their full. Luckily for her, she had brought a drug to help her deal with the effects of the wine of course she would also try to avoid drinking much but not too little to avoid suspicion.“It seems that you are not interested in romantic relationships.”“Well, you can say that. A relationship is not just for me.”Ann sighed again. “It's a pity. With your beauty, so many men would be dying to have your hand or to be in a relationship with you if you aren't even interested in one.”Ann had never felt jealous about this but she couldn't help her thoughts today as something seemed to change in her when she decided to completely turn against Amelia.“Since you think that the waiter is dashing. Why don't you ask for his number? If it is challenging for you, I can help y
Married On A Whim CHAPTER NINETY-SEVEN – DECEPTION
Amelia could not believe her eyes when she saw Ann. Ann was wearing the detective earrings that she had created herself. This was one of the products her company made so how could she not recognize it when she saw it on Ann? Instead of being honest with her, she decided to employ such means.This means that she had already made up her mind. Amelia was no fool. She knew that the snake wanted to gather evidence or have something to hold against her and that was why she planned to record her meeting. Amelia made up her mind to deal with her ruthlessly. The small chick had the mind to betray her and then find incriminating information on her.It was a good thing that she had never thought of including her in her other life, if not it would have been a disaster. She had hoped to help her out of her situation but she was shocked to be met with this kind of behavior. Since this was what she wanted, then she would make sure she suffered direly for the consequences that would befall her.Ameli

Amelia turned to look at him. “Oh, Vincent. He is one of the workers in my company. What's the matter?”“What are you speaking with him so informally? He even called you by your name. Since when is that a proper employer-to-employee relationship.”Amelia's face curved upwards as she gave a small chortle, “He is one of my loyal subordinates and this is how I treat them. Is there a problem with that? Don't you call your female employees by name?”“No I don't” Nathaniel answered his voice becoming frosty.“I call them by the position and role that they have been assigned to play in the company. You should do that too. Maintain a fine line between employee and friends.”“Do you maintain a fine line with your secretary Justin? I don't want to turn this into an argument but I clearly won't listen to you. I have tried this method elsewhere and it has worked perfectly so I don't see the the reason why I shouldn't use it.”“Where?”“Excuse me?”“Where have you tried this technique before? If I
Married On A Whim CHAPTER NINETY-FIVE - MEETING UP
Ann immediately went silent. She panicked as she didn't know what to do or say. Could her boss have found out about what had happened?“Hello, are you still there?” Amelia asked as she got no reply from her.Ann thought of seizing this opportunity to do what she had wanted to do since morning. She had tried to go to the company against the instructions of her boss and was surprised when she was not let in because according to the security personnel. Amelia had ordered that she was not to be in the office today.She was not sure whether Amelia had found out about her deeds and decided to hinder her from coming to the company today because she was aware of what she wanted to do. But hearing the meeting, she was somewhat convinced that she was not as she would have already gotten her arrested. Still with the little time she had got to know her boss. She knew that she was a very calculative person and could have the patience to bring down her enemies in one fell swoop. She shivered at th
Married On A Whim CHAPTER NINETY-FOUR - QUESTIONS
On the other hand, Nathaniel did not look tired at all. He looked so relaxed as if the work could not compare to other activities he had engaged in. The only thing that gave the fact that he was involved in some work was the way his clothes were soaked in his sweat.His abs were glaring under his shirt and Amelia couldn't help but feel flustered. She quickly shifted her face to one side so that Nathaniel would not look at her flustered face.Meanwhile, Nathaniel sat down on the floor and was lost in thoughts. There were many strange things about Amelia. He needed to find out more about this person who was his wife. From the investigations he had conducted before marrying her, there was no mention of some things that he now knew. If she was capable of hiding that then she was capable of hiding a lot of things too. First was the fact that she knew business so well as if she had been doing business for a long time. Her expertise showed not only raw talent but also experience. But how an
Married On A Whim CHAPTER NINETY-THREE - SYNERGY
Amelia turned back to see Nathaniel dressed smartly in a black tuxedo. He looked explicitly charming and she couldn't help but drool at the sight of him. She quickly coughed and brought her head back to normal.“Don't tell me you want us to paint it ourselves.”“You know I don't joke around” Nathaniel answered in a deadpanned voice.Amelia chuckled in amusement. “Don't tell me that you want to paint this room in your tuxedo?”“Of course not. Let me go and change my clothes” Nathaniel said as he entered the private lounge in his office. Soon he came out dressed in casual clothes.Nathaniel then walked up to Justin. “Get the paint and other materials we need now.”Justin immediately went out to gather the things as instructed by Nathaniel.“How do you expect us to paint the room like this? Don't the chairs and other things need to be covered before they get spoiled by the paint? And do you expect us to be the ones to scrape off the paint from the wall? That will take forever and I take
Married On A Whim CHAPTER NINETY-TWO - PAINTING
Ann soon arrived at Nathaniel's office. Unlike last time, she was immediately received by one of the staff whom Nathaniel had prepared to receive her beforehand. Amelia followed the private elevator and headed to Nathaniel's office floor of the building. She was surprised to see some people whom she recognized to be painters in the lobby waiting. She immediately walked up to them.“Good morning gentlemen. Please why are you all here and who called you.”A man who seemed to be the head of their group smiled and walked up to her. “Good morning ma. You must be Miss Stone. We have been waiting for you. We were called by Mr. Brooke. He told us to take orders from you when you arrive.”Amelia was surprised. Nathaniel never informed her of this. She was confused as to what was happening. Just then, Nathaniel's Secretary, Justin, came out of Nathaniel's office space. He immediately walked to her. “Good morning ma'am. I have been expecting you. These men here are painters. Mr Brooke has inst
