"I am worried for you both,”the baroness said,”this happened at your restaurant and there can be consequences,like closing down the restaurant.”
“Yes I am worried too,”David said, “but we are innocent,The restaurant has been running for some time now and no history of such incident.l think the police are conducting the investigation from this night.The head chef called me and told me the police came to the restaurant and questioned most of the staffs there.The only thing I am happy about is that no one died as a result of the poison.“That is good to hear David,”Celine said, relieved also that their guests were fine now and that no one died, because if someone had died,she and David would have been in serious trouble.The doctor came in and said,”Mr Wheeler, the police are here to see you.”“Let them come in,”David said.The police came in and asked David some questions. They also asked Celine about theArabella nervously brought the phone down as she heard David's voice.“It is nothing,just a family dispute,I was discussing with my mother," she said.“If that was your mother then take it easy with her and talk to her calmly.”David said.“The doctor has discharged Celine,are you coming along?”David asked.“No!”Arabella said,still looking nervous.“Are you alright Arabella?” David asked again,he had never seen her so agitated and nervous like this.She had always been composed when handling matters in the office,but this was different, it was as if she was afraid of something.“I am fine David.” She gave him a smile,”don't worry just take Celine home, I will just take a taxi because I need to go somewhere before I get home.”“Okay, suit yourself," David said and walked back to the hospital room.When Celine saw him frowning as he came into the room,she asked him
The following morning Celine woke up to see David already preparing for the office.“Where are you going so early?” she asked him.“I have to go to the restaurant because the police are still investigating the matter. Unfortunately, the CCTV camera didn't pick the person that put the poison, the police suspect that part of it was wiped away.”“My God!” Celine said they are criminals.”“Yes, they are," David said; he finished dressing and came forward to where Celine was.“What are you doing?” she said, as he bent down bringing his face towards her. “Kissing my wife goodbye,” he answered as he kissed her on her cheeks.“You haven't brushed your teeth," I would have kissed you on your lips," he said, teasing her. She took a pillow and threw it at him.He avoided the pillow quickly, laughed out loud and went out of the room.At the restaurant, the pol
Celine was smiling in the kitchen as she was about to make coffee for herself.The doctor told her to be on bed rest but her back was sore from lying down for too long on the bed.She decided to go downstairs and make herself a cup of coffee.When she came down, the maids offered to help her, but she refused and told them to do their other chores.She was happy she and David were coming to terms with each other. At least he respects her and has started to be close to her by taking care of her and also teasing her, like this morning when he got a chance to do so.The thought of his laughter when she threw a pillow at him, deepened the smile on her face.She was just about to go and check on the baroness in her room when the phone rang.She picked it up.“Hello,” she said.“Hello ma'am,” it was the head chef.”How are you feeling now? I hope you are better.
ROMANCE AFFAIR AFTER DISASTER!That was the title of the news about David, it also showed a picture of David holding a woman and another one carrying her.It was embarrassing to watch what the reporter was saying in the news. He said the CEO of Wheelers Glass Industries was not concerned about the disaster that happened at one of his restaurants but instead was enjoying himself on a romantic date.Celine looked closely at the woman David was carrying and saw that it was Arabella. Celine started becoming furious, why would David do this to her and embarrass himself in this way?What if they are having an affair? A voice said to her.Even if they are having an affair, they should spare her the humiliation and be discreet, it is not when the whole city sees them! she said to herself.Another thing is, she thought, the reporter and the news agency he works for should also be sued. Thi
"That is different David,” Celine said.David raised his brows.” How is that different?” he asked.“Are you saying I am not supposed to be jealous when I see Ray by your side?”“This was a man you once said he abused you and you think when I see you being close to him, I am happy?”David said, raising his voice.“It's not like that!”Celine said, trying to explain to him.”l have made a lot of police cases against Ray, telling him not to come closer to me again, but each time, the police keep on dismissing the case and I saw that as a complete waste of energy and time so I decided to ignore him instead, but he keeps on coming back and pestering me.”“One thing you should know is that I can never go back to Ray, no matter what he has become now.”“A person's character, once shown to you will never change, he might reduce it but that attitude is still there waiting to come out again.It just needs a littl
At first,Celine ignored her and continued checking on the bikinis displayed on the hangers.The collection of bikinis the attendant showed her were really very lovely.Celine selected a few bikinis and some light cotton dresses,but when she saw that Arabella was persistent,giving her glaring looks from a distance,Celine went over to where she was standing.“Arabella,it is good to see you here,did you come for shopping too?”Celine asked mockingly.Arabella, still glaring at her, said,“I don't need to go shopping,I have a lot of clothes for myself,and if I want more I just tell the shop owner to bring what I need at my home.”“Oh that's great!” Celine said,mocking her, “that's a princess treatment.”Arabella knew Celine was mocking her so she changed the topic.“Why are you shopping this early morning Celine?Are you going on a trip?”she asked.Celine knew she cannot tell her about he
Their plane landed in the Bahamas after three hours.From the airport, they took a taxi to the resort.As they reached the resort, they were greeted by the attendants who helped them with their luggage and also the receptionist.“You are welcome Mr and Mrs wheelers,” she called their names smilingly as she gave them the key to their room.The attendants helped to put the luggage in the room and David gave them a tip.“Thank you, sir,” they both chorused, walking out cheerfully.“So Mrs Wheeler's David addressed her,” what should we do now?”“Should we take a shower before we eat dinner, or take our dinner before shower?”“I prefer we take our dinner before showering David. I am famished, I am so hungry.”“Ok,” David said,” let's go to the restaurant area.”They went to the restaurant area and ordered dinner.After they have eaten Celine said.
"Wakey, wakey!…..David watched Celine with a smile as she stretched beside him.It was the early hours of the morning, and both of them were just too lazy to stand up.“Good morning sweetheart,” she said.“Good morning sweetie," he answered.“So what are our plans for today?” he asked.“I thought you said we would go to the beach,” Celine said.“Yes, that is true, but we should have breakfast before we go to the beach, and also, we will explore some places in the resort before going to the beach,” he said.“Ok that would be fine,” Celine answered,” I will wear a light cotton dress on my bikini.”“Ok, fine he said, I need to shower now.”He stood up and walked down to the bathroom, not caring that he was naked.She smiled and looked at her nakedness too, as she wrapped herself in the sheets.She has never experienced
Celine stood by the pool at her father's house.She watched the water in the pool as it was calm.She wished her life was as calm as the water.She remembered when she came to the house the day before and hugged her father,she couldn't prevent the tears from falling as her father consoled her.She watched later as he doted on his grandchildren before they all went inside the house.Her father had already told his housekeeper to prepare a room for Celine and the children.He made sure they cooked her favourite dish and allowed her to relax well and enjoy the food without asking her any questions.She was surprised because this was the third day and he hasn't said anything to her.“My princess,”Celine turned quickly to the sound of her Dad's voice,he was coming towards her as she stood by the side of the pool.“Father, you shouldn't have come down here to look for
"No mother,I will tell him on the way to my Dad's place.”“Ok,I have no business meddling,my dear it's between you and your husband but please try to sort it out on time,so that the children will not be affected.”“Ok mother I will do that,thank you so much,”Celine said.“Ok my dear,”the baroness said.She followed Celine inside the nursery to say goodbye to her grandkids.She bent and kissed each one of them on their cheeks.“My sweethearts,”she said,smiling at each of them,”I will miss you so much,come back soon ok.”“Don't worry mother,we will be back soon ok.”“Ok my dear,” the baroness said to Celine,"I will take you on your word.”Celine went over to the room and picked her suitcase and the one she packed for the kids.She then went back to meet the maid who was already ready with her own suitcase.They went downstairs and th
Looking at Celine,for a while,David saw that she was serious.He knows that the way he feels and relates with Arabella,others don't do the same as they don't understand their relationship.“But why would you say that Celine,I have never given you any reason to doubt me in handling this matter.”“You know I am not having an affair with Arabella,and I told you I will handle the matter.”“I will also make sure Arabella doesn't come to this house anymore.”“That is what you would always say,but after a while you will see her here again.”Celine said.“I don't know why we are still arguing about this woman? Especially after what she did.”“This woman would not stop till she has you in her life David and I can see that you are trying to make things so easy for her,”Celine said.“I am not making things easy for her Celine,I am just trying to handle this situation in a
David was so embarrassed about what had just happened,he can remember Celine vividly as she warned him against Arabella. It seems he was the only one that trusted Arabella blindly and this was the consequence.He entered the room but couldn't find Celine.He went towards the bathroom door and knocked.“Celine,darling, please come out," he said,"I would like us to talk.”“There is nothing to talk about,” Celine said inside the bathroom,she really didn't want to face him now.“Please darling,I know I have really hurt you by what you saw,” David said.“Please just come out ,so we can talk, my dear,”David said.Celine reluctantly came outside and David wanted to hold her,but she avoided him.“Stay away from me! “David, please don't touch me.”“Why Celine? You are my wife and I have a right to touch you.”“Not after you have committed
Everyone in the room was startled. David was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say to his mother. Immediately Arabella burst into tears. “What is wrong?” the Baroness asked again. “Why is Arabella crying?” “It's nothing,’’ Celine said," mother,let us go to the living room.” Before the Baroness could turn as she too knew it was an awkward situation, Arabella composed herself quickly and said. “Ma'am,I am sorry for everything but I and David slept together as we were both drunk.” The Baroness stood there in shock,as she heard what Arabella said. “What do you mean Arabella,that is a shameful act and you are bold to tell me to my face!” The baroness looked at David with eyes which were quite disappointed. “Am sorry ma'am,” Arabella said, “please forgive me ma'am
"My God!” She exclaimed loudly.“What is the meaning of this?”The sight she saw was making her more furious as her face was boiling with rage.On the bed she saw Arabella wrapped in David's arms and it looked as if David was holding her also as she laid in his arms.Arabella was looking as if she just woke up from a deep sleep and David was still sleeping.Celine went towards the bed angrily and held David's arm,trying to wake him and pull him out of the bed.“David,”she called,patting him on the shoulders,so he could wake up.“Why don't you leave him to sleep," Arabella said,”you can see he is exhausted after our…..“Shut up!” Celine shouted,as she stretched her hand towards Arabella and slapped her hard on the face.The sound of the slap could be heard in the dark hallway.Arabella fell back on the bed not expecting the slap Celine gave her.
David woke up in the middle of the night,he couldn't understand himself.His head was just spinning as if he drank two cartons of alcoholic wine.”’Why am I feeling so hot in my body?”He thought to himself.He stood up and wanted to wake Celine, but when he saw how deep in sleep she was,he left her to sleep and decided to go downstairs to the kitchen to drink water.He gently tiptoed towards the door,so he wouldn't wake her,then he went down the stairs to the kitchen to take some water inside the fridge.He sat for a while on the chair to regain his strength, then, he took the bottle of water back into the fridge and was about to close the fridge door.Suddenly he felt someone was also in the kitchen,he turned back quickly and looked towards the dim light as he didn't want to put on the full light.“Who is it?" he asked.“It's me,” Arabella said, and came towards the center
"I seem to feel a bit dizzy,”David said, but when he looked towards Arabella again the dizziness seemed to disappear.“I think I am fine once more,”he said.He stood up and asked the waiter to break him a bottle of water,and when the water was brought,he drank all the water in the bottle and sat with Arabella for a while to clear his head.“I think I am feeling much better now," he said.The bottle of water has helped him a bit,he thought.“So what were we saying about the job?” David asked.“Just because the company is better than before doesn't mean that you have to resign.”“I know that David,” Arabella said,”but you are not getting the point.”:Staying with you is my pleasure,but I don't want to spoil your relationship with your wife.”“Leave my wife out of it, how are you spoiling the relationship?”:You know I still care about you and I w
David drew Celine closer as he danced with her,he could feel the warmth of her embrace and that made him feel happy and content.It's really a joyful thing when you are in love and have a peaceful marriage.All the excitement and happiness was getting to his head he thought and chuckled.“Why are you laughing?” Celine asked when she heard him chuckling.“It is because I am so happy at my present situation now,I feel like a fulfilled man and this is all thanks to you,”He said,smiling as he looked into her face.“It's not me sweetheart,but God that blessed us with this happiness so your thanks should be to God.”Celine said.He pulled her closer and kissed her on her forehead.***Arabella looking at them from a distance and seeing them curdle was so furious that she purposely dropped her glass filled with drink in annoyance.This made many heads stare at her but Celine a
