CHAPTER 17: MEETING VEGAS THEOPHILUS.

"Can I get two egg rolls and a bottle of Sprite, please?" Evelyn requested at the counter. It was a sunny day, thank goodness that she was already dressed up as lightly as she could. If not she would have been sweating like a Christmas goat for slaughter. The woman passed what Evelyn had requested to her and she collected her payment. Just as she turned around, she had a collision and what she was holding fell to the ground.

"Ouch." She bent and picked them up.

"I am sorry, I am so sorry…" The masculine voice apologized. Irene looked at who it was.

A man dressed in tuxedos just like Raphael, his hair was perfectly styled. He had a nice and we'll trim beard that made him look more manly but somehow gave a playboy vibe to Evelyn.

"Hello, I seem to be so attractive if you can stare at me this way without blinking," Vegas said proudly. Evelyn blinked and shook her head as if that would bring her previous thinking back.

"Excuse me, what?" She asked in

    CHAPTER 18: WHO IS MY FATHER?CONTINUATION FROM THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER.Raphael stood there in front of the family, his head bowed. He wanted to cry at that moment but he was doing all that he could to prevent the tears from falling. He was a man…he was supposed to man up! There was nothing a tear could do for him at this moment to not experience his father's wrath."I can't believe this! Another failure! Another disappointment! I can't believe this! I really can't." Micheal screamed. He was sweating profusely as he walked to and fro while talking."Never in my life have I disrespected my family name this much. How could you have done this, Raphael? I thought that I should not just make you jobless or allow you to work for another company because of what people might say, I gave you a chance to showcase your talent but you went ahead to showcase how dumb and stupid you are.I warned you, boy! I warned you about this step of yours that you were about to take! I told you that this girl th

He asked."Of course, he is.""See you later." He waved at her and walked away. Mrs. Conner sniffed and rubbed her eyes with her hands, she almost lost her job there. Sleeping during office hours was prohibited but because she was the oldest among Raphael's staff, she was given a pass by Raphael but she really couldn't say for the rest of the business owners.Vegas made his appearance known in the area as the fifteen staff stood up to greet him. Evelyn turned around to see who it was. Vegas nodded slightly at her as she greeted him too, she turned around quickly to continue working on her computer. She didn't want to get with him at all.Vegas just kept his words withi

Kira was having a sleepover at Evelyn's place. That was what she was getting used to."Living alone is one big hell of a ride," Kira said as she popped the drink openly."Don't tell me about it. I experienced it for a while before giving birth." Evelyn replied and took a sip from her drink. Her friend simply smiled."So how are you coping at work?" Kira asked."I am coping well. The workers are nice…""And your boss? I have never really seen him at all so I don't know what he looks like. Is he handsome? Is he that dream guy that we would always talk about when we were teenagers?"Evelyn smiled and remembered Raphael's distinctive features that got her red like a tomato."Are you blushing? Wait…you are blushing, what the f*ck? You are blushing about your boss…""What? No, you totally got it wrong. I was just having a ran

She wasn't late this time around so she wasn't much in a hurry until she bumped into Vegas again that morning."I am sorry…oh, Mr. Vegas, Good morning." She greeted him swiftly."Good morning, Miss Evelyn. You seem to be in a rush." Vegas commented and put on a charming smile but Evelyn looked away and breathed in the fresh air. The air had suddenly become suffocating for her.She wasn't in a rush before but now, she suddenly wished to be Barry Allen, the fastest person alive."Yes, since you know that sir then I will love to take my leave."As Jeremy was about to take the elevator upstairs, he sighted the two of them. He couldn't figure out what exactly they were talking about but seeing the way Vegas was smiling, it seemed as if he was flirting with her. He wasn't privileged to catch a glimpse of Evelyn's reaction or else, it would have been fun to watch."Goodness, Mr. Veg

    CHAPTER 22: STEPSISTER.Evelyn held Tom's hand as they walked around the things meant for sale inside the big supermarket. He kept on bickering with her about some specific cartoon characters. She wasn't in the mood to fight back, instead, she pats his back and nodded whenever he asked 'Am I right, mum?'. That was his characteristic.As they kept walking, Evelyn saw her stepsister from afar and she immediately paused in her walking. Tom had no idea what had made her pause, he thought that she was going through the commodities on display so he cared less. Evelyn looked at her son and then at her sister who seemed to be parading the whole place with her head raised high with pride.Evelyn licked her dry lips and was about to turn around just to prevent her from seeing them but luck was not on her side this evening as Ruby caught a glimpse of someone that looked so much like her sister."Excuse me?" She called out and rushed to meet the person. Evelyn's hand turned sweaty and she had pro

Anyone who might have entered the sitting room at that moment would have seen that the famous Johnson was now a shadow of himself. His sunken eyes were glued onto the television that kept rambling about some business officials.For the past months, his business had automatically gone down the grave. The business shareholders were all withdrawing themselves from the business, he tried his best to keep everything under his control so that things wouldn't leak out but…it just went, poof.Johnson sighed and rubbed his face in depression. His money was all going down the drain, his eyes darted toward the woman he called his wife, Jessica. She was busy watching him too.Jessica had been trying her best to

This is the time I wished to and I did." The man replied."My dear cousin Vincent is smart and knows how to play with words," Erica said with a daring smile."And that's why you will always be behind me.""Don't be so sure of yourself."

    CHAPTER 25. MR RAPHAEL?The doorbell of Evelyn's apartment kept ringing repeatedly and all she wanted to do at that moment was to curse at whoever was disturbing her peace. She pushed herself from the chair and walked like a drunkard to open the door without trying to look at who it was. Well, she had it in mind that it was Kira but on opening the door…"Hey, Ki…Mr. Raphael?" Her eyes widened and her first instinct was to slam the door against his face which she did automatically. She leaned against it as her heart skipped a beat. She wasn't expecting him at her doorstep looking all enticing…what the hell was she thinking of in this situation?Raphael, who was standing in front of the door, rubbed his creased forehead. Was she taken by surprise? He knocked gently on the door."Miss Evelyn, you are keeping me waiting." He said and a few minutes later, the door was opened and Evelyn poked her head out before stepping out of the house, closing the door quickly. She puts on a smile on her

    CHAPTER 80: THE END; WILD NIGHT.Evelyn finished showering. She was in Raphael's penthouse and Tom insisted on staying at Kira's place. She didn't know if that was willingly or if he was bribed to stay. She looked at the lingerie that Kira had insisted that she buy for Raphael's sake. She still remembered the conversation they had."Don't you think he will see me as being cheap?" She asked as she ransacked her hands through the lingerie."See as cheap? What? No, he even knows how hard he had to work just to get you so you ain't cheap my dear.""But it still feels kind of thrilling.""Have you two kissed?" Kira whispered."Yeah," Evelyn replied."Don't you feel like moving forward a bit?" Evelyn blushed and hit her friend with the lingerie before walking away."Fine then, I will buy it."Raphael came into the room with his phone in his hand when Evelyn released the bathrobe she was wearing. It was such perfect timing."Evelyn, do you…what the hell?" His eyes widened. His eyes slowly ate

There wasn't much to do, it felt as if she was living life on repeat for the past few months. Before she could take a spoon, the doorbell rang and it made her pause, wondering who it was. Kira would have called to inform her of her coming if it was her so who could it be?Tom stared at the door for a while, and so did his mother before she eventually stood up to answer it. When she opened the door, she was faced with the biggest surprise ever. Raphael was standing right in front of her, holding a box that she assumed was filled with pizza and maybe something else."Raphael." She whispered and he smiled. Tom stood up and came to their side. His eyes widened when he saw him and instantly cried out."Daddy."Raphael put down the box and lifted the happy Tom, he used this opportunity to enter the house without being asked to.

Our engagement is just a few days away and I think it's gonna be special."Raphael yawned and nodded, "Call off the engagement."The smile on her face was wiped off completely when she heard this. She instantly put on a frown."What do you mean by calling off the engagement? I don't understand.""I believe that I am speaking the official language of the country correctly. CALL OFF THE ENGAGEMENT. Even a kid in basic class understands what I am saying.""Well, I don't. How can you just tell me to call off my engagement with you? It's impossible!

He seemed of utmost pride as Shaft had invited him to join in his family's dinner party. This was a way for him to relieve stress, he glanced at his beautiful wife and opened his arm for her to hook hers with."You look amazing." He complimented."And you look gorgeous as ever. Old age does not affect you, darling."Micheal kissed her and they both walked out of their bedroom, climbing down the stairs as elegantly as ever. Raphael, who was sitting down, stood up to greet his father."Good evening, father.""Raphael." Michael acknowledged his greeting."Where is Vegas?" He asked him."He is probably busy.""Busy? Doesn't he know about the special occasion we have this evening? Try his number for me.""Unfortunately, I don't have it," Raphael responded."How can you not have your brother's number?

He blew out the smoke from his cigarettes and put them down on the ashtray. He locked eyes with Raphael whose legs were crossed against each other."And congratulations on your new company that is completely sucking the life out of your father." He added and Raphael chuckled coldly."How did you know?" He asked him."I am not a son of the mafia for nothing. All the rich men in the city are people that I keep a close watch on probably for profit's sake. So why are we here?""I believe that you already know the reason.""You don't want to get married to my sister," Vincent replied and Raphael nodded."Smart of you." He complimented while Vincent smirked.He was young but not dumb. He had been in the business since ten years old and he had been taught to get who a person is from close observation.

They were currently holding a meeting with a few people around. The room was as chill as a home for kept stock fish. Raphael folded his arms as he watched everyone."I…I don't know, sir. Many of our investors are withdrawing from us. If care isn't taken, we might lose them all to the new company." He replied.That was true. Even though Raphael and the rest had been trying their best for the growth of the family business, there was this particular business that had risen from nowhere in the last four months and was already taking the lead as it was solely based on what Theo's group of industries had to offer.They were making more gains than them and what was even more frustrating was that the owner was unknown. It felt as if the person was in darkness, shooting an arrow of victory toward their opponents."What should we do? I am confused. Send

How would she react? Many thoughts went through his mind.
