~~~~~ 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~~"I'm sorry if I had kept you waiting. There were some emergency matters that I had to deal with." Dr. Marvin's apologetic tone sounded from behind as he walked to his seat and I nodded quietly."It's fine. I'm just here to make finding about these." I brought out the same drugs I had mistaken to be mine earlier and left them scattered on the doctor's desk.He only stared at it for a brief moment and an almost inaudible sigh left his lips. His hands moved forward to link together on his desk. "Whose drugs are these? I didn't prescribe them to you.""I know and that's what I came to figure out. However, I have an idea of who it belonged to, and I want to confirm with you. Just tell me nothing but the truth." I said in hush tones but he kept quiet.That wasn't what I wanted. I wanted answers but his blank gaze told me he was hesitating from explaining things to me."Fine, you don't have to explain anything to me. As his wife, I have the right to ask questions about hi
~~ Brittany's POV ~~Everywhere became silent again when the video stopped, and I glanced at the so-called diligent employee as she called herself. She was barely making eye contact with anyone in the hall. But shortly after, she summoned courage. She was trying hard to mask her anxious expression which wasn't rarely working."No, this is not right. It is absolutely illegal to stalk me, just because your position is higher? You had your secretary follow and have me on video secretly. That is against work ethics and you can be sued for that!""You're right but at the same time, this can't be overlooked. What you did over there almost cost us so much damage and that's what matters." I exhaled sharply. "Besides, everyone that was present on that day knew if you hadn't pointed accusing fingers at my secretary, then she wouldn't have gone the extra mile to prove herself. Mind you, you plotted everything from the beginning."One of the members of the board of directors, a man, added, "We al
~~ Brittany's POV ~~"Everything has been prepared for the meeting and everyone is waiting for your arrival, Ma'am.""Fine, let's go." The door opened and Jake came in. He was hesitant at first as he stepped closer, his hands clasped together in front. "Please, we need to talk." He stated almost inaudibly, his eyes simply boring into mine."Excuse us, Clarissa." I said and walked back to stand behind my desk.Clarissa left without hesitation, and I was all alone with Jake, who was still gawking at me like he was suddenly tongue-tied."You don't have all day to talk to me. There are more important things I have to do.""Um... I didn't mean to delay you or anything. I...just wanted to speak about us." He stuttered out, taking a deep breath afterward. "It's absolutely fine if you're too busy to talk now. We can do that some other time, maybe discuss over dinner later tonight.""Say whatever you have to say right here, there won't be a second chance for this discussion." I chipped in wi
~~ Ace's POV ~~I could feel people raiding their eyes on me as I walked into the company; many ladies throwing flirtatious gazes while some murmured amongst themselves. Moments later, a group of people walked up to me, stopping in front of me."Mr. Ace, it's a great honor to have you here. Please come with me, the president is pleased to welcome you to the company." One of the men amongst them stated with a small smile."I'm not here to see him." I corrected and glanced everywhere else but them. "Where is his daughter? I'm here to see her instead." I glanced back at them and could feel their embarrassment, especially on the man's face."Oh, Ms Elvira? I'll take you to her. She's in her dressing room. Come with me, please." One of the ladies offered, walking away and I followed suit.These were one of the numerous companies that A&C enterprise invested in but it was actually the first time I'd been there without the CEO title, i.e when there wasn't any official occasion going on. Afte
~~ Brittany's POV ~~I woke up to the beeping sounds beside me as I managed to sit upright on the bed. My body ached badly, like I had been lying on this bed longer than usual and my head throbbed slightly with headache. I felt heavy all of a sudden at the discomfort and I moved my gaze around the strange environment until they stopped on Clarissa sitting on a white couch."Ma'am, you're awake." She said as our gaze met, and she rose to her feet, walking towards me immediately."What happened?" I asked, looking around the ward once again. "Why am I in a hospital? And how long have I been here?""You've been unconscious for over a day, ma'am," Clarissa replied before making me rest my back on the pillows behind."But how did I end up..." The door suddenly opened causing me to pause as I turned towards the direction. Ace halted near the door briefly before hurrying towards me in the next second while the doctor just strolled casually behind him."How are you feeling, Mrs. Miller?" The
The huge black automatic gate slid open as a white Porsche sped into the compound, having less interest in parking properly. Charlotte stepped out of the car, stylishly taking in the serene atmosphere. Everything in the spacious compound screamed luxury, especially the majestic floor-standing fountain at the center.As Charlotte made her way into the gigantic mansion, some maidservants she had walked past greeted her, and the only person who stopped her was the middle-aged Butler dressed in uniform."Young Miss, you're here. The chairman is not around at the moment, but he will be back soon." He announced, his tone warm and calm as he stared at the young lady standing in front of him."I'm not here to see my Father. I just came to pick a few things in my room." Charlotte replied nonchalantly."Then, do you mind waiting behind for lunch? It is being prepared as we speak." Seeing the slight look of worry in the Butler's eyes, Charlotte sighed and lowered slightly down to his level. He
~~ Ace's POV ~~Many would say that I was speaking under the influence of alcohol and even as they finally agreed to sign the contract, I could still feel some of their astonished gazes on me. They all looked like they weren't the same set of people who weren't willing to give us a second of their time earlier.The truth of the matter was that I couldn't bear to see Brittany caught in a tight spot. I could feel it earlier when she spoke to them that she was nervous, and that was the height of it all. The Brittany I knew in business affairs was usually so confident and sometimes, it was not easy to oppose her in business matters. Many of our business partners were aware of that.As we eventually signed all the necessary parts, the deal was sealed successfully with two people from my legal team present, as I promised. They had smiles plastered over their faces, every one of them except for the old man who happens to be the town leader."We hope you don't disappoint us the second time be
~~ Brittany's POV ~~"I asked the others to think of a solution, but nothing seems to come to my mind. It's super annoying but I can't just let this go. I need to do something to prevent a disaster.""It's not the end for you, you know.""And you?" I asked, clearly irritated that I was the only one worried about the whole thing while Ace was looking the less bothered.As over an hour had passed, all he did was pacify me when I got overly worried. He even ordered our lunch through the hotel's room service and while eating, he didn't allow the topic till we finished eating. That moment felt passionate as my toes curled at how caring he was. "The both of us can't possibly be too worried at the same time. Then who would motivate who to stop overthinking?" He tilted his head to the left as if trying to seek answers through my eyes.That had me roll my eyes. As much as I wanted to deny it, he was right. One person had to stay in their right frame of mind to avoid losing it. I made my way o
~~ Brittany ~~I paced to and fro in the room, restlessness clouding my train of thought. The project meant a lot to the company, and the contract was something my father wanted to sign really bad before the accident as other companies, which were our rivals, also targeted the same contract. How things moved from an almost successful event to serious damage in the blink of an eye still baffled me so much. I could have imagined the happiness on Father's face when he eventually woke up from a coma, but all of that now had gone down the drain. Instead of the proud looks I imagined, it was going to be disappointing to him and the board of directors in the company. That was a disaster."Worrying too much won't solve anything," Ace stated, breaking into my thoughts and I paused to glance at him.He stood up from the couch and walked up to me as if realizing I wasn't going to listen to him. His cold hand made contact with my skin as it wrapped around my wrist, taking me to the three-seater
