Ace's POV

To say I wasn't furious about how I met Brittany and that forsaken friend of hers would be a lie. I didn't even realize when the anger crept inside of me.

But strangely, I became glad when she untangled their hands. It still didn't stop me from glaring at him with so much hostility.

Even if Brittany and I were no longer together, Jake still had made me feel deep hatred towards him and as a result, I distrusted him so much.

Getting a text from dad about a change in the time of our supposed honeymoon turned a big deal for me but as it was as well for business, I obliged to go.

According to dad, the honeymoon had been arranged before the wedding and its tickets were sent to my mansion yesterday but given that I didn't go home, I wasn't aware.

All through our flight, neither of us said a word to each other. Although, she was barely awake and the few time she didn't sleep, she was on her phone, smiling at intervals at nobody knows what.

The long silence didn't end even when we g

    ~~~~~ Brittany“We sealed the deal and definitely dad would be happy to hear the good news.”“I hope you would be able to fulfill your goals this time.” Jake's voice had hopes in them, that it made me smile brightly.Then, I sighed.He had always been there for me with all the support that I needed. This was one of the reasons he was my best friend. Although, I also had another friend, but she was currently not in the state, so I was left with Jake at the moment.“Thanks for your good wishes, Jake.”“There's no need to thank me, Britt. I even wished I could do certain things for you, then you wouldn't have to go through all this just to have your inheritance.”I busted into a loud giggle, then stifled it a while later due to how people's eyes were already shooting to my direction.“I'm glad that I have a great friend like you. Thank you.” A low chuckle left my lips instead.He would never cease to amaze me.“Yeah. So, what's next?”“Don't know until this honeymoon ends. Hopefully, in

    ~~~Ace*A Short Matured Scene Ahead*“Holy shit!”“F*ck!” Those words escaped my lips freely as I pounded deep into Elvira, sweats dripping from my body like rain fall.I grabbed her by the hair to push myself deeper into her hole and she moaned out even louder. Her melodious moans were what made the moment even more pleasurable.I was close to cumming. I thrust deep into her one last time then poured all my hot liquid into her at once before pulling out. In the process, a few drops splashed on her thighs and the bed.We both fell flat on the bed as we covered ourselves with the huge blanket, also trying to stabilize our breaths.Elvira's coming wasn't planned as I was even shocked to see her. But as it turned out to be, she knew the right seduction tactics to use and I couldn't resist her. She and I had been f*vkmates since college but broke up when I met Brittany. But it began once again after Brittany shattered my trust for her. Ever since, Elvira remained a b*tch I used at my di

    ~~~~ Brittany's POVMy little princess' tiny hands wrapped in mine as we walked into the house together. I dropped the goody bags we came in with near one of the couches as I slumped to a seat with Emma.“You both came back right in time. I just prepared dinner for all of us.” Aunt Ciara smiled at our arrival before leaving the dining room to join us in the living room.“Yes.” I pulled off my sunshades and black silk material wrapped around my face.While I was out with Emma, I had used them all day to prevent people from recognizing me. It was definitely going to lead to a disaster if anybody who knew me saw us together.Fortunately, she was understanding regardless of just being four years of age. I believed it was because she was becoming used to it already. A low sigh left my lips then I glanced at her.“Emmy baby, how was your day? Did you have fun with Mummy, today?” Aunt Ciara asked, bending a little low to her level.Emma's face beamed with a smile as she giggled in her melodi

    ~~~ Brittany's POV “Oh my goodness, Britt!” Jake's voice startled me as he barged into my office without a warning.Goodness! Was he trailing me all along? I had barely even gotten into my office.“Where did you go? You had all of us worried, especially since you had your phone switched off.” He added immediately walking closer to me and I only breathed out slowly, calming my nerves down.He looked worried with both his facial expression and tone.I was silent for a while before leaving him on the stand to take my seat on my swivel chair. I was just arriving at my office after spending the night at a nearby hotel. When I arrived in America, it was still towards evening time and I didn't want to go back to Ace's mansion just yet. Dad's mansion was neither an option.“Only a few, though. I believe some weren't even aware of my absence.” I replied to him and rolled my eyes at the end.My last statement was referred to Ace as my mind flashed back to the dirty scene in the suite. I had p

    ~~ BrittanyMy left fingers tapped simultaneously on the desk as I scrolled through the new employee's profile on the iPad.I was waiting for my secretary to come back to my office with him because it was necessary I interview him too.As for Lora, I would deal with her later or better still report to father, even though I knew it might yield nothing in the end.I stopped scrolling when I got to his basic information, which included his full name: Kylie Fox, gender: male, date of birth and contact information, including his phone number and home address.It was just like the usual employee's personal information, nothing strange to make me think Lora could be playing a dirty trick on me. Definitely, I had no iota of trust in her!Shortly, the door opened, and I shot a glance as Clarissa walked in with him trailing behind her. She stopped him in the middle of the office, then walked closer to stand by my right side.I had now stopped tapping on my desk and joined my two hands instead a

    As soon as Brittany exited the office, Jake landed a heavy punch on Kylie that sent him right to the ground. He let out a groan as he held to the chair he once sat on for support.Jake was furious, even that was an understatement. Coming back to apologize for the strange attitude he earlier portrayed in front of Brittany, and then he saw the weird position she and Kylie were in, it all got him pissed.He was very certain that Kylie was trying to seduce Brittany because Brittany was not that kind of lady to throw herself at a man. Their years of friendship could attest to that.He couldn't deny his disappointment when he walked in at the scene, but it didn't last until anger replaced it, therefore waiting for the right moment to lose it all on Kylie.Kylie, on the other hand, was taken aback by Jake's sudden attack and as he rose slowly from the floor to gain back his balance, his hardened gaze was fixed on Jake.“Why was I just hit in the face?” He seethed with a deep frown plastered

    Lora walked into the gigantic mansion in a catwalk, her sling purse hung on her right arm as a small smile spread across her face.The interior of the Anderson's mansion was a testament of magnificence and luxury with a grand foyer, two sweeping staircases that curved like ribbons against each other by the walls. Its delicate ironworks gleamed in the light, and the marble — made floor reflected the light of the crystal chandelier above. In fact, the mansion was an orchestra of colors, textures, and patterns, with every part of the building looking breathtaking.As Lora's footsteps became clearer, some maids in the living room hastened their last cleaning for the day. This was as a result of avoiding Lora.To them, she was trouble and none of them wanted to cross paths with her, which was why they all wanted to avoid her in every possible means. But unfortunately, it was near impossible. They were only servants who could do as they were told and technically, Lora was also their boss.

    ~~~ Ace's POV It'd been days since I last heard from Brittany. I haven't set my eyes on her, which made me wonder where exactly she was. What was she doing at the moment? Does she even know there were people worried about her?Nobody knew her whereabouts and when I asked a few including her asshole of a friend, Jake, he too seemed clueless. Only her mother looked like she knew something about her whereabouts with her reactions.I began to suspect her when she clearly refused the case to be reported after I suggested it. Then, she concluded Brittany would come back soon.If only all these didn't begin when we both went on a trip together then I couldn't have been worried one bit. But no! It all began with that trip, which totally involved me.Who knows if she saw what happened in the suite that day? On the other hand, I wanted to believe she didn't, and it was just because she would rather not be with me in the same suite.“Sir, your schedule for the day has ended and there's nothing

    ~~ Brittany's POV ~~“Someone is here to see you, My Lady.” A servile voice brought me back to reality. A maid's head was bowing downward with hands clasped together in front.“She says she is an old friend of the Young Ms.” She added, causing my brows to furrow. An old friend? Was it mine or Lora's?I shot Mom a quick glance and her expression was not any different from mine—surprised. “What did she say her name was?”“Ms. Shantel James.” That name rang a bell in my head as it sounded really familiar. Shantel, Shantel, Shantel? I chanted that name in my head, a jolt of excitement slowly rising through my veins. Was it the same Shantel I knew? “Let her in.” Mom ordered, and the maid left, returning a few minutes later with someone else trailing behind her.They got closer and the maid deep bowed one last time before walking away, giving me a clear opportunity to see the lady behind. At that moment, my eyes lit up in excitement as I sprang up to my feet. At the same time, she spread

But it ended earlier than I expected. It was quite satisfying to see someone else stand against Elvira and her arrogance.I was forced to butt in when Elvira almost overstepped her boundary as I approached them with a straight face, looking like I wasn't the one smiling earlier when Charlotte gave Elvira what she deserved."And what makes you think I'm unwelcomed here? The last time I checked, this isn't your house." Elvira replied me with a masked expression. It was obvious she was trying to suppress her anger, replacing it with a small smile as she dropped her hand and folded her arms against her chest."You should get your facts right. I might not be a direct owner but you wouldn't want me to state how much rights I have around here, higher than you can ever imagine. Why? Because I'm the

  • Married To The Casanova CEO   Chapter 61 - Unwelcomed guest.

    The cold, refreshing wind suddenly turned into hot and sultry as Jake stood rooted to the ground. He was still in a dilemma after Brittany bluntly rejected him and since she left him there on the rooftop, he didn't bulge from where he stood.This was the main reason he'd feared to tell her about his feelings until he accomplished his goal of making her fall for him but that didn't go his way. Finally, he was able to move his feet closer to the low fence as he dipped his two hands into his pockets while staring into nothingness in the sky. He was reflecting on the past, his mind so engrossed on the first day he met Brittany in college and how it'd been between them, that he didn't notice Lora show up behind him.She was trying to catch her breath upon rushing up there after the little clash with her half-sister back in the office. It was almost as if she thought he would have been long gone from the rooftop but it was the exact opposite when she got there."Looks like someone just got

    ~~ Ace's POV ~~Reviewing proposals in my computer, my mind frequently drifted away as I fervently glanced at my cell phone, but nothing came. Despite knowing the consequences of what I was doing, I was still utterly curious at her reaction. If not, reactions.I was obviously making a bigger fool out of myself but with the outcome of events, it was my fault to begin with. So, the only thing that crossed my mind all day was to make amendments for my mistakes. When the call I had been expecting throughout that day finally came, I gripped my cell phone with so much anticipation. “Sir. Ace, it's all done.” Mrs. Lucia expressed, as if suspecting my inquisitiveness and I just nodded.Relief washed over me as I exhaled sharply. The first step was done and only awaited confirmation which I could no longer pretend to wait. I wrapped up work as I glanced up at my personal assistant to see her staring intently at me, only to lower her eyes when mine got caught with hers.She was probably wonde

    ~~ Brittany's POV ~~“Brittany….” He called out, taking two steps closer as he continued, “I've always loved you. Right from the first day I met you in college, I was attracted by your beauty and as the days went by, you drew me closer with your charming personality. But I knew you didn't feel the same way, which was why I never bothered you and actually wanted to make you fall for me before confessing my feelings. Not until you left.” He paused for a brief moment, his knuckles clenching into tight fists, as if remembering the awful events in the past.“When you came back to the States, I was more than happy to see you again, but your goals of getting the company stood in the way. But, I wasn't willing to give up until you'd fall deep in love with me. Even deeper than what you feel for that heartbreaker of a husband.” He tried to close the space between us with slow, striding steps, but I involuntarily lifted my hands to stop him from getting any closer.I was completely in a daze as

    ~~ Brittany's POV ~~“How was your night, baby? Did you perhaps dream about mummy in your sleep? Because she misses you.” I whined into the phone with a small pout.I could hear her cute giggles, making me bust into smiles.“I miss you too and yes, in my dream, we were together as a family in a big house.” Her adorable babyish voice replied and a look of puzzle crossed my face.“Really? Tell me more about it.” I coaxed, curiosity and excitement lacing in my tone.Speaking to her like this was something I wished would never end. I loved hearing her voice every day but unfortunately, circumstances kept us apart from one another. Hence, it was somehow difficult to hear from her as I pleased.“That was all. We were so happy living together that it felt so real until I woke up this morning.” Her once bright voice fell afterward.She was sad, no doubts, but I wasn't planning to make her sad for long. “In a few weeks time, you'll be five. How excited are you?” I hoped the news would help lig

    ~~ Ace's POV ~~I didn't know for how long I stayed in the car as my head rested on my hands on the wheels. By the time I lifted my head to stare out the window, the sky had grown darker and the stars were gathered, glistening in its usual form.Brittany's car drove in, and she alighted gracefully with her phone placed on her left ear before the driver drove away to park properly in the lot. Through the shadows of the night, I could see her adjust her bag on her right arm, still chatting immensely with the other person over the phone. Although, I didn't hear what they were discussing.Her back was slightly turned against me, that only her left side was in view. I could barely see her face. She remained there for a while and didn't seem to notice my presence as she walked into the mansion. My eyes strained to keep her under watch until she was no longer in sight and I exhaled deeply.I clutched onto the wheels tight briefly and fixed the windows before stepping out as I headed into the

Don't you get tired? Or maybe slack off in your duties?” Lora butted in, strolling inside casually as she halted midway with arms crossed against each other.Ignoring her statement, I teared my gaze back to my secretary with raised brows, but her looks expressed shock and surprise.“I really did ask her to wait for me outside,

    ~~ Brittany's POV ~~I clasped my sweaty palms together as I clicked my heels quietly against the marble tiled floor. Until then, I didn't realize how tensed and scared I was. The first few hours didn't bother me that much because I was certain mom's lawyer was quite prepared. Thanks to the other maid who demanded to see me at the hospital, we were able to get recordings contradicting to what the supposed maid, Sophia had told the police. In one of the video recordings, she seemed to be working with someone against my mother, and she was the one who planted the forged documents in my parents' bedroom. Now, she was no longer a witness and for that reason, oppositions against my mother had reduced but somehow, I still felt anxious. After a brief recess, the judge returned with the verdict and as my eyes remained fixed on her, I hoped and prayed whatever she was holding unto was good news.“.......
