Anita sat on her bed with a loud irritated huff, her father in-law was just too much, she had told Aldrin several times that they should relocate back to their villa..

But as always, he wanted to be the good son of the family..

Aldrin sighed in defeat, he sat on his heels in front of his dramatic wife who was boiling hard in anger..

"Alright honey! I get your point now..."

"No you don't! you obviously want to remain by your parents side forever, your dad never misses a chance to ridicule or make me mad..I'm really fed up"

Aldrin rolled his eyes, he took her hands in his and gave a firm nod..

"Yeah ma'am you are always right.. we'll move after my dad's birthday alright?"

Anita pouted pulling her gaze away from him, what was the use of being a lady if you didn't play a little hard to get?

"Alright?" he asked again only to receive silence in return..

"You can't be serious right now honey.." Aldrin remarked in frustration..

Anita rose up to her feet without a warni

    Damien dipped his head down to her face with a smug smile on his lips, his eyes lingered on her lips for a second before travelling back to meet her glowing eyes.. "Has anyone ever told you how bad you are at lying?" The door opened slowly as two figures peeked into the room, Sandy's eyes grew large at the sight before her.. "Cute" She murmured to receive a soft glare from Bianca... "Shhh" Damien's expression turned serious once more "I meant every word I said earlier..I hope you think about it" He backed away from her and picked up his suit jacket resting next to her on the bed.. "I'll take my leave now..and you're welcome" Olivia sneered, "I didn't say thank you and I'm not gonna say it" "But you just did" He argued with a grin.. Sandy and Bianca scurried away from the corridor on seeing Damien approaching them.. *** The weird silence in the atmosphere caused a line of worry on Olivia's face, she was currently seated in front of Bianca and her mum who were giving he

    Rihanna's eyes fell on Alexa's tightened fist around the steering wheel, it's been twenty minutes since they entered the car but she hasn't made an attempt to move yet. "Are you alright?" Rihanna asked worriedly trying to take a peek at Alexa's face.. "My brother froze all my bank cards after he found out that I was behind Kelvin and Olivia's kidnap..Heavens know how much I hate that woman and her son!" Her teeth gritted in annoyance.. "I'm running low on cash and I can't tell my parents otherwise I'm screwed! I'd be sent back to Europe!" Rihanna's gaze softened, she brought her hand to Alexa's cheeks stroking it tenderly, Alexa has always been by her side no matter the situation.. And to think that she was going against her brother and mum for her sake warmed her heart.... "Shh..it's fine, it's only a matter of a few days before we get rid of her completely..and then everything will go back to how it used to be" She pouted. "But I'm not sure Damien will look at me the

    Bianca crashed on the bed next to Olivia who was already fast asleep, she snuggled closer to her stroking her hair calmly.. Sensing another presence in the room, Olivia instantly knew who it was, she cursed beneath her breath and sat up.. The bedside lamp was turned on by Olivia which illuminated the room, whenever Bianca crawls into her bed late at night like this it usually meant that something was bothering her.. It might sound creepy but she was already used to it by now, since they've been friends since childhood.. She pulled Bianca's head gently to her laps stroking it tenderly.. "What's wrong? I'm always here to help out you know?" Bianca groaned out in displeasure, she just couldn't bring herself to accept the fact that her mum was seeing someone else other than searching for her real dad.. Ever since she was a kid, she had always craved for a father's attention and care but her's was nowhere to be found, whenever she asked her mum where her dad was.. She gets only on

    Olivia stared back and forth between her mum and Bianca who were making things weird, were they silently teasing her red nose? She brought her hand to touch her nose unconsciously.. "You're leaving for Chicago with Damien tomorrow?" Olivia's face relaxed a bit, she was quite relieved it was something else but this was way worse than her initial thought in the first place.. "Bianca! you little snitch! did you really have to?" Sandy dropped her cutlery placing both hands under her jaw, she stared dreamily at her daughter who still wasn't getting what she really meant.. "I'm sorry it slipped out of my mouth.." Bianca sarcastically mumbled stuffing her mouth with bread.. Kelvin looked up to his mum with a wide grin, this meant his mum and dad were turning into friends and very soon they'll be together.. "There's no way I'm going to Chicago with him! I'm still recovering from my illness, I'm on a week's leave and lastly I can't possibly leave my little boy over here" Kel

    Olivia turned around to meet her mum's curious eyes that were roaming about searching around the living room but that wasn't what caught her attention.. Her attention was drawn to the red bra her mum was currently waving in front of her which belonged to her.. Her eyes widened in surprise, she marched straight to her mum trying to snatch the bra from her.. "Mum! what are you doing with that?" Sandy chuckled, she moved the bra is circular motion around her index finger.. "I see most of your bra's are a little bit boring..why don't we go for pushup bra's you know? let's go bra shopping" Olivia was left speechless, what has a business meeting gotten to do with her bras? it's not like she was going to run around in her underwear over there.. As if that was not enough, Bianca strode in casually with one of her panties like it was normal for her to hold it.. "Well she need panties too.." She turned back to Olivia flaunting the Victoria's secret ash colored panties in fr

    Xander raised a brow, he wondered what his cousin was talking about not until he heard a soft footstep approaching him.. He snapped his head to take a look at the uninvited guest and was left speechless at the level of familiarity she had with someone he once knew.. "Hey!" Becky called out to him taking the nearest seat closest to him, she flashed him a smile which brought him out of his daze.. "Do I know you?" Becky shrugged and snatched the red apple from him after which she took a bite out of it.. "Maybe" Xander was left totally confused, he stood up to his feet taking a closer look at Becky trying to point out the weird things he found familiar about her.. "Wait..hold on a sec! I recognize you! you're Becky!" Xander exclaimed in shock and disbelief, she stood up to her feet and threw herself into his opened arms.. Well, here was another person she cherished, Xander Grey, the only one who troubles her non stop, not a bully actually but a total jerk! "No way!"

    Olivia rolled her eyes on seeing her mum and Bianca pull out two pregnant luggage cases towards Damien's car, she could only imagine the number of poor innocent clothes that were forced into it begging to be spared.. She didn't fail to notice the look that crossed his face at that moment, she didn't blame him though, her mum was just a little too dramatic... All these didn't faze her, what troubled her the most was leaving her son behind for two whole days, it felt like torture.. "I'll miss you the most baby" She whispered softly pulling Kelvin to herself.. "Don't worry about me..I'll be fine alright?" Kelvin turned to Damien and motioned for him to come closer which he did. Damien crotched down to Kelvin's height only to be engulfed into a tight embrace.. "Take care of mummy, don't make her sad, give her her meal on time and also..don't let her sleep in the tub" Sandy and Bianca chuckled at the cute order Kelvin was giving out to his dad..

    Damien masked his expression with a small smile, he turned around to her with an arched brow.. "You won't melt if you ask me for help..but anyway I promised Kelvin to take good care of you...and I'm not one who breaks promises" Olivia's heart skipped a beat, she felt his last words holds an hidden meaning which she got instantly.. "I'm not a kid for you to look after..don't use Kelvin as an excuse to get closer to me, because I won't let that happen" she declared arrogantly.. Damien ignored her choice of words, even if that was really the case, but what could he do? she was just like a double cheeseburger..she has a son for him and was also surprisingly able to make his monster machine power up without having to do much.. How could he let her go so easily? *Hmm, he has a point though* He walked towards her luggage cases and pulled them up with ease only for his hand to be held back.. "I told you that I can manage" She argued trying to pull the case out of his grip.. "It's f

    Despite all that had happened to Tracy in the last few weeks, she was smart enough to understand that revenge wouldn't help her out at all. She pulled her gaze off the large screen showing the live footage of Damien and Olivia's wedding. That should have been her daughter smiling so brightly on the screen, but the latter messed up her chances. If only Olivia hadn't come into the picture, maybe everything would still be intact and in place. The Brown's wouldn't have been broken apart like it had. Taking a huge deep breath, she gripped the handle of the wheelchair where a dazed looking Asher sat. The doctor said he was still in shock of whatever had happened around him but it's been days since he woke up and the only word he uttered was "Olivia" Tracy wasn't oblivious to the fact that Asher had something for Olivia. "Your dad and Rihanna has chosen their own path, I think it's time we get going and start our lives afresh" They had to catch the fastest flight to Florida w

    Few days later.. The most awaited day in the city came by so fast. The day were the two souls were finally going to be joined together by the sacred bonds of marriage. A majestic church was transformed into a breathtakingly opulent wedding wonderland. The stained glass windows adorned with intricate stone carvings filtered the sunlight casting kaleidoscopic patterns across the polished marbled floor covered with a plush white carpet runner embroidered with gold thread. Garlands of lush greenery and exotic white flowers which included, roses, orchids, and gardenias entwined the wooden pews leading up to the altar. The air was sweet with the scent of blooming flowers. All these extravagant decor had everything to do with Anita Sterling, the most joyous soul on earth. She had been anticipating this day so much if not more than the couple and finally it was here. As the orchestra's strings swelled, the congregation rose. Their faces turned toward the back of the church. Th

    Alexa took a glance at Hardin seated next to her in the car when he didn't make any attempt to step out of the car. Today, her older brother had summoned her to the Sterling's ancestral home for an urgent meeting, and she had taken advantage of that opportunity to introduce Hardin to her family. Except that the latter was feeling nervous about this meeting. Hardin knew that he had to face his girl's family sooner than later. He wasn't scared of meeting them but rather be was scared that they might look down on him because of the huge gap between their status. Or worse they might shoo him away from Alexa which he wouldn't be able to bear. Alexa's hand fell on his palm fisted on his lap. She gave it a soft reassuring squeeze. "Trust me. Everything will be fine. My brother might seem tough but he is actually soft hearted on the inside and my dad isn't much of a trouble either" Hardin released a deep breath, he casted her a glance. "And your mum? There's still enough time

    Tracy's hand shakily reached for the door's knob leading to Asher's ward. Her heart raced wildly as the door creaked open. She took a step in and almost immediately, a surprised squeal left her lips. Her legs almost gave way, but luckily, she regained her composure and hurried to the bed where the lean figure lay with his eyes wide open. "Asher" She cried out softly caressing his hair. He was awake. Meanwhile, Asher's face was as still as a statue, he hardly blinked or changed his line of focus. Tracy rained multiple kisses on his face but that still didn't generate any reaction from him. There were several questions running wild in her head that needed to be answered. "Asher..can you hear me? it's me your mum" She reminded him taking his hand in hers. She brought his hand to her lips and began sobbing. Now she had a new ray of hope. He was awake and that was all that mattered to her. *** Olivia sat on her bed reading a book in the peace and quietness of Damien's r

    Bianca flashed a smile at the kind receptionist who led her to the door leading to Xander's office... Her hubby must have been working his ass off and had probably forgotten to have breakfast before coming to the office and it was certain that he might skip lunch too. But not on her watch. She had decided to pay a surprise visit to him today by coming over to his company with his lunch. She pushed the door open and stepped in with all smiles.. "Hey, Mr Gray I see you're busy." Xander was startled at her sudden familiar and chirpy voice, he snapped his head up from his PC to her. She plunged to the chair in front of his large desk with a broad grin on her face placing two takeouts on his desk. From her facial expression he got that she was excited to see him. "Wow! I wasn't expecting you to show up. You startled me for a second there" She sprang up to her feet and walked around the desk heading to him, once she drew close enough she stood behind him and leaned dow

    All throughout the ride back home Damien's hand never left Olivia's tummy no matter how many times she made jest of him. He just couldn't contain his happiness and the same goes to Olivia. "Don't you think you are overreacting?" Olivia inquired arching a brow. She wasn't complaining or anything, it was just it felt weird for him to caress her flat tummy. "Come on. I wasn't there for you when you were pregnant with Kelvin. The least I could do is to make sure that I'm always by your side from now henceforth" Olivia sighed in defeat, she tilted her head by the side till it fell on his shoulder. "As you wish Mr Sterling" *** Hardin wiped off small food crumbs by the corner of Alexa's lips using his thumb. He took the dirty dishes along with him to the kitchen. "You don't have to do the dishes. I can manage on my own" Alexa lazily offered running her palm on her stomach. "Nah. it's nothing much" It's been a while since she last ate a really nourishing homemade foo

    Damien and Olivia waited patiently for the results of the test carried out. The result was said to be ready in the next thirty minutes. "Are you sure you aren't feeling any discomfort?" He asked worriedly. Olivia's face fell for the umpteenth time in a row, Damien had been bugging her with that same question over and over again. "Yes. My ears are about to be blown off by you. I told you already right? I'm fine quit worrying yourself for nothing" Damien chuckled at her response, he brought his hand to her blonde hair stroking it lovingly. "I can't help but worry about you honey" Olivia flashed him a look of surprise, he just addressed her as 'Honey' and surprisingly it sounded right to her ears. Luckily for Olivia who was gradually burning in red color, the door opened and a doctor stepped into his office while a nurse followed behind him. He took his seat behind his large brown desk filled with some papers clipped together and his name tag. "Mr Sterling. I'm deepl

    Hardin pulled away from Alexa after a few seconds of their lips locking. He cupped her face in his hands while his eyes never left hers for a second. Her face was expressionless and he noticed that she didn't reciprocate to his advances. Or furthermore, she wasn't interested in him like he was in her. The thought of that shattered his heart into a million tiny pieces. Maybe this had something to do with the huge gap in their status. But at this point, nothing mattered to him any longer except the lady standing close to him. Whether she accepted him or not, he had decided to pour out his feelings. She hadn't said a word neither had she blinked or make the slightest of movement. Perhaps, she was still in a state of shock, which was very true. Although this wasn't the first time Hardin had kissed her, but this kiss which lasted for a few seconds felt entirely different. Her heart thumped wildly wondering why he did that. Different questions and assumptions filled her mind leavin

  • Mummy, Daddy is on his kneels   Chapter 156_ Hangover

    The once messy apartment which belonged to Alexa was made spotless and neat after a few hours of cleaning by Hardin.. He picked up the trashcan and proceeded to the living room where some of her dresses and socks were littered. A few empty packs from various snacks covered the table in the midst of the mini living room. "How come I never noticed any of this whenever I come in here?" He questioned no one in particular.. After taking out the thrash from the table, his eyes caught sight of a thin strip paper like object lying lazily on the table.. Hardin's brows furrowed, from the two clear red lines flashing before his eyes, he already knew what this was. He picked it up examining it closely, this was a pregnancy strip. And worse of it all, it was showing two lines which meant that it was positive. Was Alexa pregnant? if not what was it doing in her apartment? Meanwhile.. A smile carved on Alexa's sleeping face when a mouth watering aroma filled her nostrils. She stir
