“Honey, you are finally here” Luke greeted Camila as she walked in to the company looking as gorgeous as never before, he remembered that only one person looked like her. Camila’s mother was the love of his life and he would have been happy to have the both of them beside him if not that she chose to disgrace him.However he was not going to let the thought of that woman destroy his happy mood. Today he has found a good man for his daughter, he was sure that she will accept him. He has never thought of match making in his life but Camila deserved someone who will treat her right, she has suffered too much.“Dad, I promised to come and I am here.” She said and looked around. She could see several people chatting silently with one another as they sipped on their drinks.Luke didn’t waste any time, he only needed her to make an appearance and then the rest of his plans will work out. He quickly signaled to another man who appeared to be giving instructions to one of the employees.He im
“I thank you so much but not today. We will make arrangements so that you can take me through a proper tour. okay” the man thought that it was a brilliant idea, he can get to see her again and try to make his move. He wanted to court her at all means and for her to come back later will give them privacy and more time.“There is no pressure, let us exchange numbers so that I can contact you later on the date that your will be free.” He suggested.” She could see that he was excited.“Sure “Camila replied and gave him her number then he dialed it and it rang. She quickly saved his number in her phone contact so that when he called she wouldn’t ask who he was, it would be embarrassing.Samuel arrived with Caleb to the function. L.C Corporation was a company that would have gone under if not for his help. Camila probably doesn’t know this but he has been responsible for the tenders that they have won recently. He needed it to stay in operation, it was his payment for Bella saving his life
He must go and send the man away, he didn’t care if he was the most powerful man but he was threatening him, he had no right to appear at the exact time when he was enjoying himself with Camila. He started to walk towards them when a voice stopped him” Tom, please give them some time. I think Mr. Hudson had something he wanted to tell Camila” Luke explained.“Alright, boss”In the end he decided to busy himself with other matters as Samuel had no intention of leaving at all.The silence was so boring, Samuel felt that he needed something to distract his mind or else he was going to go crazy. Never in his wildest dreams had he ever imagined that he would end up following a woman and chasing hungry men away from her, but it was only possible for one woman, Camila Carson. The most stubborn yet a beautiful woman of all times.“Waiter, bring me a drink” Samuel called and ordered someone who was passing by. He was just talking but it felt like a command.Camila raised her brows in question,
“Shut up please, it was your own liking. I have nothing to do with you. I didn’t even force the alcohol down your throat. You are so unbearable Samuel, I don’t even know why I bother so much about you?” Camila rolled her eyes at the smell of alcohol coming from his mouth. She detested the pungent smell but she just couldn’t leave him alone.He has always taken care of her in worse situations and she would feel guilty to turn her back on him. Despite everything he was still good to her.Caleb was driving the car and he could hear the uncomfortable conversation going on in the back. When they first came, he didn’t know that his boss’s intention was to get himself drunk. He had been with him for years and not once had he ever seen him lose control because of a woman.“Caleb, can you branch to the nearby chemist so that we can buy some stomach medicines?” Camila asked.“I think they must be closed by now, it is already late but don’t worry I know someone who will give us his medicines”“C
With a heavy heart she opened the door slowly without making any noise. She went to the kitchen first in order to prepare something nutritious for him. He needed to regain back his health as soon as possible.The kids also woke up and were surprised to see her at the mansion.“Mommy” Lucky called“Mommy, when did you come?” Leo asked with a stupid smirk on his face. Oh…Camila loved to see the two bubbly kids being happy. If it were per her wishes, she could kidnap Leo and disappear with him somewhere far away where Samuel wouldn’t find her.Then she would pretend that he was the son that she sold back then. Perhaps, this will make the guilt disappear, but as per now she still has a long way to go. She hasn’t managed to get enough money to start searching for her son.Tears rolled down her eyes when she remembered his little face, his little hands and his sweet smell. She missed him so much, no one would know how much but her. No one would understand her ordeal as a mother, but she h
Camila was startled, the man just stayed quiet and listened on the whole conversation. What a cheeky bastard? How could he do that to her? What did he think he will achieve by that?“How much did you hear?” She asked not pleased at all. The least he could have done was to let her enjoy peaceful moment with her kids.“I heard enough, but don’t worry, my offer of marriage is still on the table and if you don’t wish to have another child it is okay. We will only take care of Leo and Lucky” he muttered with a serious face, only Camila could make him do the impossible.Camila was caught off guard, Samuel sometimes acted so reasonable. He was ready to sacrifice himself for her sake, she couldn’t help feeling happy that someone considered her feelings. But she hasn’t forgotten that she was not meant to get married.“Samuel, I am sorry but this is my business and I hope you know what I think about marriage. Let us not talk about it, it will never lead us anywhere.”“Alright, I see that you ar
Camila didn’t believe her ears, right here in her office the man wanted to give her an opportunity. But it was such a shame that she had signed a contract with Samuel and she wasn’t about to betray him. Their only relationship would be business and that will be all.Even though the deal was good, she was going to pass on it.“Mr. Chandler, I thank you so much for the opportunity but I think that I am going to turn it down. Let us focus on your designs if you don’t mind.”He just looked at her, the woman was proving to be tough. Let us see if she will manage to overcome what he has for her. By the time he will be finished with her, she will be begging him for the job. He had dealt with other women who pretended that they weren’t interested but later they succumbed and so Camila would not be different.“There is no pressure, Camila. Just take your time to think about it. I really do want you on my team. I kind of feel that you are not utilizing your full potential here at Hudson” the ma
“Listen, you have to stop crying. Other children will laugh at you. Do you understand? Let us do this, I will order you a watermelon everyday and you will eat until you are satisfied because I know you can’t finish this one in a day”“Thank you daddy” she stopped crying immediately and wiped her tears. Kids sometimes were very funny, in real sense she wasn’t going to finish the giant watermelon but she just had to insist. Samuel enjoyed this the most, he never experienced the real thing about raising a kid. They were sometimes annoying but cute at the same time.Camila wasn’t pleased, Samuel was bent on spoiling Lucky to her liking. The child started behaving that way ever since she met him because she knew that Samuel will grant her everything that she wished for.Camila pouted her mouth and whispered in a low voice” Samuel this is not the way I raise my kids, she has to learn that sometimes she can get something but not always”“And this is how I raise my kids, if you don’t like it
“Mmh….what way do you like it” he continued to say when he observed that Camila was speechless.“I like them all” she finally said with a husky voice”“In that case, get ready because I will taste every part of your body. “He started kissing her neck then he moved to her cleavage. The wedding dress wasn’t doing her any good because it was exposing the most sensitive parts of her body for his attention.She felt over whelmed and muttered with a shaky voice” Samuel, I think that this is too much for me. Can we wait until tomorrow? I just want to get used to the idea that we are going to get intimate. It has been so long and honestly, you do understand how nervous I am.”“Are you kidding me right now? “Samuel was not impressed at all, how the hell did she manage to say that when he was feeling like exploding. The little guy inside his trouser wasn’t going to stay tamed until she was finally his.Camila added nervously “Just a little more time…if you have managed to wait this long, I am su
Samuel hadn’t even thought of a destination but his grandfather was ahead of him” the destination will be revealed to you when you board the plane.” He didn’t want to spoil the surprise. “Grand pa, thank you for arranging all this for me. “ Samuel said and for once in his life, Joshua got an appreciation from his unbearable grandson. This grandson of his will be okay as long as he had a strong and admirable woman by his side. Joshua shrugged his hands. “No….. I thank you for making me happy. But you are going to be late already, you should be leaving” he said in a hurry. He really enjoyed planning this whole wedding and seeing that finally the two people whom he loved the most in this world were together, just filled his heart with joy. “Oh…..but I can’t be away from my kids, I have never left their sides.” Camila complained and the next minute, she was hugging the two children tight on her arms.” I will miss you kids, just don’t give your grandma a hard time. I promise that I will
The man sat down on the couch and crossed his long legs. Camila was anxiously waiting for him to say something.“I talked to my grandson recently and it seemed that he never listened to me. I gave him time to convince you to get married to him but evidently he has been defeated. Camila, you were already my granddaughter in law even before you knew it. That said, the main reason for my visit today is to tell you that the wedding is in two days.”Camila just looked at him blankly. “What! Grand pa. Why are you so troublesome? This was my job,” Samuel appeared on the door suddenly. He just missed Camila and he wanted to come and check on her only to find his grandfather seated in her office talking about marriage.”Joshua didn’t look bothered, he just needed to accomplish the mission no matter what. “I am sorry Samuel, I waited for you and I became impatient. If you want me to stop bothering you, just do as I say. I promise that I will never interfere in your business again.” The man w
This was her chance to revenge all that the fools have done to her.“Yes… you should leave immediately. Stella, I have always been married to Cindy, our marriage is still valid and she has always been the woman that I was in love with. You tried to split us apart but it wasn’t possible, now I want you to pack your things and leave my house.” Luke ordered.“Dad…..don’t abandon me, I am completely innocent” Bella tried to beg but Luke didn’t want to listen to her. Deep inside, she had been a part of his life. Even if she wasn’t his, he still felt bad that she was going to suffer.“Bella, you were just like your mother. You were never good to my child and for that I can’t forgive you. You reap what you sow. kindly leave my house. I never want to see the two of you ever again in my life” he turned his back and started walking back to the living room pulling Camila along with him.Bella knelt down as she cried” Dad, you are the only one that I have known since I was young. I beg you to pi
“Stella, how dare you disrespect me in this way” Luke shouted looking at her with fire in his eyes. Stella has never seen him that deadly. In a jiffy she climbed down the man who struggled to cover his nakedness.Stella quickly took a sheet and covered her body. She was so ashamed that she wouldn’t dare to lift her face.“I am sorry, Luke. It is not what it looks like” she started to apologize, she looked pitiful in that state that she didn’t know what to do this time round. She has always had her way with Luke but now the man looking at her was ready to kill.“Mum….Oh……mum. I have something to tell you. I am finished and I just don’t know what to do” Bella screamed as she sprinted inside the room. It has been awhile, she has been driving aimlessly trying to digest what Samuel just did to her. She just couldn’t accept that she had lost him to Camila.She needed her mother so depertely. She was the only one who could understand her situation and calm her down. May be she can come up wi
“Dad, but what about Bella and her mother? Are they not your family?” Luke just admired Camila. After what the duo had done to her , she still had the heart to pity them. Surely this child was the best thing that has ever happened in his pathetic life.“They are my family but I never trusted Stella. Up to now I don’t understand what she used on me. Sometimes, I think that Bella is not even my daughter. The dates of her birth just don’t match.” Luke appeared to be making mental calculations on his head.Camila didn’t believe what her father was talking about. How the hell did he stay quiet all this years and yet he suspected that Bella wasn’t his.“Oh…..Dad, I think that sometimes you are the most naïve person I have ever come across, but I love you regardless. As for Bella and her mother, I don’t give a damn about them. Please be sure that these documents will be safe and thank you so much for trusting me with the company.”Luke was relieved. Even if he were to leave this world, his w
“I don’t care about what you want, Camila” he said and pulled her closer to his body. All I know is that you are mine already with your body, mind and spirit. Do you think that I will let the mother of my kids go away? If you don’t know how to decide, then I will decide for you” He kissed her again and looked in to her eyes.She placed her head on his chest and said almost in a whisper” I don’t understand how you can make me feel this way and yet you were the cause of my problems. I don’t understand why I want so much to be with you when I cursed you every day for the past 5 years for taking my child. Samuel, I cried every night thinking about the way you took my innocence. It was so unbearable, I wanted to die.”Samuel felt guilt hit his heart immediately, he swallowed his saliva and held her even closer. Somehow he didn’t want her to suddenly get angry and push him away. He has been thinking about it over and over on how to handle this sensitive topic, but he has yet to come up w
The man couldn’t contain his anger as he pointed his finger on Bella’s face. He had always been gentle on her since he thought she was the one who saved his life but now she was just nothing. The woman was so irritating.“Bella, just go away. I never even liked you.” Alan added as he escorted her to the door. Oh….Camila would have given anything to see the look on Bella’s face. Finally the tables have been turned on her. She was the one laughing.The embarrassment was too much, Bella just had no option but to leave. She just wished that she could pull Camila’s hair and gorge her eyes out, but she has just lost. Samuel was no longer on her side, she saw the look of hate in his eyes.When the door closed behind the unwanted woman, a smile appeared on Camila’s face and Samuel saw it. He has never seen her that happy, Bella was really a thorn on his woman’s flesh and he was relieved to finally get rid of her.Samuel winked at her, giving her his killer smile but Camila turned her face aw
“Nova, did she offend you in any way? Tell me so that I can deal with her. I am not afraid of her “Camila held Nova’s hands as her eyes pleaded.“Camila, you know that she can never mess with me. I am not a weakling, I would have shown her the worst in me. I couldn’t bear to wait any more to talk to Samuel. Samuel, so you really did survive the accident. I have been searching for you for all this years. I couldn’t forget the state in which you were in when they took you to the hospital.”Samuel stood up immediately, Nova was not making any sense at all. What did she mean by what she was saying?But she continued talking making him even more confused” I saved you from that accident. After pulling you out of the wreckage, I couldn’t take you to the hospital because I was late for my job appointment. A good Samaritan offered to help you in my place but I forgot to ask for his contacts. I can confirm this by that scar you have on the back of your hands. I saw it clearly and it was the on
