"Be my bride" Charles smirked while Summer blinked repeatedly in awe.
Shocked by his response, she never expected him to agree that easily.
It was more easy than she thought.
"What?" Charles said seeing that she kept shut. He took a step away from her, he put his hands inside his pocket.
"You don't want to?" He asked. "If you don't want to, then forget it..."
"No, of course I want to" Summer replied before he could finish his statement.
"I will marry you" She said and Charles smile but quickly wave it off.
"Ok Miss Shrap, my secretary will get back to you" he said while Summer scoffed in displeasure.
"Don't worry, I will contact you this time" He said as if he knows what she was thinking about.
"I hope so, Mr Eden. Till I see you" She faked a smile and left his sitting room.
As soon as she got outside, she jumped in excitement.
She is sure he will keep his promise this time, both the marriage and he will contact
"You must think you have won but dear big sis, the game have just start. Be careful, you might not win this battle" Summer words kept ringing inside Dora head.It kept disturbing her. What does she mean? Does she has an hidden card?"No, that can't be. She has no card, even her supporter aren't as much as her especially with her husband Edwin McCain" Dora lamented to herself.Could she be just bluffing? That is it she has to be bluffing?She has already won the fight, her father is going to give her his shares soon.So Summer has nothing to do but yet her words kept disturbing her.She knows her sister doesn't talk without a proof or something to back her up.If she has a supporter, who will that be? Who? She rack her brain trying to think of something but nothing came into mind."Love" Her husband said joining her on the bed and kissed her neck.She smiled in approach, "What is wrong?" He asked and she turned to him."
Charles opened his eyes and take Vivian's hands off him, "Get out" He tried not to raise his voice."Charles!!!" She called surprised by his actions."If it isn't me, then let me call you a girl" She suggested but he refused."Get out Vivian, please"She gritted her teeth and stood up, she went to where her shirt and bra was. She picked it and put it on, she saw as he took the drug.Why is he doing this? He is hurting himself for what?She picked the file on the floor and dropped it on his table, she turned to leave but he stopped her."Vivian" he called and she quickly turned to him hoping he has changed his mind."Call Miss Shrap, bring her to my penthouse" He ordered."Ok""And also when she is with me, I will like you to address me as Sir not Charles. If possible don't call me by my name even when we are alone" He ordered and she bit her lips annoyed by his words."Yes sir" She complied with
SummerWe arrived at Charles penthouse, I won't lie everything about him screams wealth. Is he trying to show off his wealth to me by asking me to come here" I scoffed at my thought.But I still find it somehow cute. I giggled and Vivian looked at me, I clearly scrum that smile off my face and put on my serious face."Please wait here, he will be here soon" She said and left me.'What the hell is wrong with her?' I thought and took a seat. Whenever she is with me she's always acting like she is in a battle. My thoughts was short-lived when Charles entered.I quickly stood up and adjusted myself. "Mr Eden" I called and stretch my hand for an handshake but he refused it.I clenched my fist together and faked a smile. "Follow me" He demanded and I did. I followed him to a small flower house in his penthouse."Have a seat" he said and I took my seat.Sec later, Vivian also entered. "Here is it, Mr Eden" Vivian said an
He doesn't want to hurt her, but with the way things are going. He is scared he might lose control."You should talk the rest with my secretary" Charles said and excused himself for his room.He got to his room and went straight to the drawer, he picked his drug and want to use it but angrily throw it away.It is up to no use, he has used it before. It is only once a day, and it was supposed to last for two hours. But yet he is aroused and it isn't even up to two hours. That is because of summer, why does she have to dress like that.Why don't she wear suit like she used to, she caused all this. God right now, he need someone's hole to stay inside.***"So when do I get to move in?" Summer asked Vivian whose mind wasn't with Summer. She is worried about Charles, is he alright? She needs to attend to him right now, or the worst might happen."Hello" Summer said bring Vivian back from her thoughts."You can move in, anytime you wan
Mr Shrap was lost in thought seeing his daughter leaving, he was totally confused. He doesn't know what to do, he thought giving Dora the company will mend things between them but now summer has proven different.He knows his daughter, when she makes up her mind she will never back out. That means she isn't coming back till he change his mind, he is damn worried."What if anything bad happened to her? That rude brat" He shout out."Dad, don't worry about it. She will be fine, she is just acting like a kid. She will soon come back to her senses" Dora assured but her father stood up and left both her and her mom in the dinning room.Dora bit her lips furiously, she should have known she has something under her sleeves. "She is trying to make their father waver" Dora thought."What the hell is going on with Summer? Why is she acting like this?" Mrs Shrap said and also stood up."Don't worry about it, let me go see your dad” She said
Silence took over as Charles, Summer and Vivian was served their breakfast.Summer and Vivian exchange glares between each other, and Charles could notice it. Even though they weren't holding knife, they looked like they might kill each other."Let's eat" Charles said and the ladies looked at him, then at each other."Why is your secretary having breakfast with us?" Summer asked and Vivian rolled her eyes."Is there a reason, she shouldn't have breakfast with us?" Charles shrugged, completely clueless.Summer scoffed then gritted her teeth together. "We have only been married for a day now, and you are already introducing your mistress to me" Summer assumed and Charles sighed while Vivian chuckled then stood up."Excuse me, am not his mistress" Vivian blurted out."Then, are you his sl*t?" Summer said and raised her eyebrow.Vivian bit her lips and hold her gown trying to hold back her anger."You should stop, you
Summer walked out of her dad office to the car park delighted and satisfied with the way things are turning out. She never discuss anything with her dad, she wasn't able to because Dora interrupted them.For now, she feels so much in power. The look on Dora's aggravate more confidence and fostered some positivity in her.She wasn't so sure before.She never was because of Dora's husband who supports all the way.But, now that Eden has come in play she can use all her guts.She has a husband now, a rich and powerful one. Sadly, no one can know she is married to the gay billionaire.But she wondered, who is more powerful and resourceful between her husband and her sister's."Charles, of course" She speculated and bring out her car key in her bag when some men in black came to her, they were four hefty men and they surrounded her.They were well built men and they weren't smiling at all, that makes Summer scared.What makes her more s
Charles was devastated when Vivian left his office, he had no idea what he did wrong. Is eating lunch with his wife wrong?"Maybe, she is angry because you never asked her for a lunch" His subconscious statedHe bowed his head in disappointment, that is right. He never asked her for lunch, she has always been the one who does.He never took pleasure in doing such untill now, he knows how she felt for him.It will be a lie, if he said he doesn't but he choose to ignore her feelings. She deserves someone better not him, but now he feels guilty.She is sad and jealous because of him.He head out of his office to her's, he stopped in front of her when he heard her crying. That broke him, he might not feel the same for her, but she is important to him. She is his family, the only family he have left.He knocked on the door and opened it without her permission.Vivian raised her head when she heard the door opened.She was surprised to s
Her heart was filled with nothing, but sadness as she looked at the divorce paper in front of her. Dora hand shakes, as she picked up a pen to sign the paper.Is she really prepared to do this? To divorce her husband? Thinking about divorcing him makes her so sad, but then again he cheated on her.She can't forgive him.Her thought was short-lived when her secretary entered her office."You have a visitor, I called your phone but you didn't pick it" Her secretary Zara explained while Dora sighed."Am not in the mood to take visitors, just tell the person to go back""She said it is quite important, and it's about the board meeting" Her secretary reported."Let her in then""Ok" Her secretary bowed then left. Vivian entered a minute after Zara left."Hello Mrs McCain, I believe you know who I am" Vivian said with a devilish grin."What is Mr Eden Secretary doing here? I don't recall having  
Vivian took Charles to the living room, and had him sit on the couch."I don't understand her. She isn't the only one hurt here, she is just so annoying. Are you hurt?" She asked Charles, but he couldn't respond her.She hates him now, Summer hates him now. Maybe, his sister was right. He shouldn't have never been born, he should have just died, then he won't be experiencing all this.Why does this have to happen to him? And his victim, now Summer."Just forget everything she said""How could I? I don't think I will be able to. I deserve to die, no I should have died a long time. Monsters like me doesn't deserve to live, I hate myself Vivian" He cries."I wish I could just die right this moment"Vivian took a seat beside him, and hugged him."It isn't your fault, some things are just not meant to be the same way we want it to be. You aren't a monster, you are the most kindest person I have ever seen" She console him
Nothing ever goes the way, we wanted. There are sweet times, but the hard times are more hard to accept or overcome. Sometimes, marriage is sweet and sometimes it is sore.That was what she recently find out, she thought she had the prefect marriage, a marriage based on love and truth. But all that was in her marriage was all lies, deceit, he betrayed her, her trust and love."Her marriage was all lies" Dora chuckled and picked the glass of wine on the table.She heard the door opened and went to take a seat on the sofa, with her legs crossed."Dora" Edwin called, his eyes filled with guilt."You are back, I was starting to miss you, and you appeared""Dora, listen I can explain""Explain what? What are you talking about? Did you do anything wrong? Or were you hiding things from me?" She asked pretending. She was aware, he heard what happened between her and his mistress from her."Dora, am sorry. I was going to tel
The morning light shines on Charles's face, it was so bright that he thought he slept outside. Especially where the place he was laid on cold. "Umm," He groaned, his right hand placed on his forehead. His head hurts so much, he opened his eyes and noted that he was naked and he slept on the floor. "That is strange" He thought. "Did something happened?" He asked no one particular, trying to recall what happened but he couldn't. His eyes met with a dress on the floor, which triggered some memories but it wasn't clear. "Did Vivian came last night?"How come I can't remember?" He questioned confused. He stood up from the floor, his eyes landed on the Jean pant he wore yesterday, he picked them and put them on. "What happened last night?"He gazed around his room, that was when he noticed a lady on his bed. He couldn't see the face, because it was the lady back that was facing him. He tried recalling if he had
Dora sighed as she took a step toward the apartment in front of her, she can't keep hiding that she knows the truth.She wanted to see his mistress face, and his children.She wanted to be sure, if the investigator was wrong. She knows how fruitless that thought was, but she still needs to be sure.She pressed the door bell. "Coming" A tiny voice said and the door opened.A young boy came out, he looks just like him. The resemblance was just too clear, he has another family."Who are you?" The boy asked but she couldn't say a word. She tried talking but no word came out."Danny, who is it?" His mother said coming out of the kitchen, she walked to the door and gasped shocked when she saw Dora."You..." She stutteredDora looked at her, she felt like strangling her to death. No she has been convincing herself that she came here to check if the investigator was right but that was all lies. Her true motivation was killing his husba
Charles placed Summer head on the floor, for him to stand up and carry her. He carried her to her room, placing her on the bed, and used the blanket to cover her."Goodnight" He said and tucked her hair.As he was about to stand up, his eyes landed on her n*ples that was when he noticed she wasn't in her underwear. Seeing this, he felt aroused. He was so tempted to touch her, all the voices in his head was screaming he should touch her.Of course, they aren't close to do such. How will he do such to her? "Then you can force your way inside her" A voice said and he moved some step away from Summer who was still asleep recognizing the voice.What scares him was the image in front of him, even though it was an hallucination.The image in front of him was of a small girl probably around eleven or more."Bella" He called."You did the same to me, you forced yourself inside me. You didn't care, I begged you but you didn't listen. I was ju
The next day came as flash, summer still couldn't figure out the reason she was sad, and mostly Charles cold attitude towards her.They have cross part like more than five times, today, but he chose to ignore her. He was so cold to her, that he didn't even reply to her greetings.He made it so obvious that he was angry with her, that got Summer thinking what could she have done wrong?It was weekend today, which means no going to work, or stress. She could also tell that Charles was also not going to work, since he was in the living room watching a show, which he hardly does on a normal day.“Are you not going to work today?” Summer asked but he didn't answer her.She frowned, and sat on the chair with Charles. “What are you watching?” She said, trying her total best to ignore him.He scowled, stood up and went to sit in the other.“Ok, what is going on?”“What do you mean?” He replied, his eyes not leaving the TV.“Why are y
In everyone's life, there are moments you regret, moments you hate, and the moments you feel happy and loved.Summer tried recalling that kind of memories as she was seated in her car with her sister if she ever created that kind of memory with her. Well, there was one. The day her sister treated her like she is important, the day she was almost bullied in school. That is the only memory of love and happiness with her, the rest were hatred and fights.But now, seeing her sister crying. She regrets it, it hurts her heart a lot. She's never seen her this sad and unhappy, today is the first. And it breaks her heart, that she could feel tears prickled her eyes.“What happened?” She asked handling Dora another tissue paper.Dora sniffed, using the tissue to clean her tears. “Nothing, nothing happened to me”“Don't lie to me, Dora. I can see it in your eyes, you are hurt and in pain. Did something happen between you an
Summer didn't know how she got home, Charles words totally startled her."I am his type, me?" She asked pointing to herself."He called me his type?" She giggled not caring about the maids with her."Am his type" She screamed scaring the maids."Are you alright?" One of them asked but got no answer.She walked passed them, straight to her room. "But why is she so happy?" She stopped walking at the thought of it.She slapped her cheeks with her two hands. "Summer, get a grip at yourself. You are Summer Shrap, and it is a contract marriage. No string attached, if you fall for him. There is no cure" She said to herself and went on her bed.She slumbed on it, removed her shoe when a call came in. She picked it without checking the caller."Hello""Miss Shrap, it been long. You totally forgot about me" The caller said while Summer shivered."Mr Dale??""Of course, who else will it be? You didn't even give me
