Robert looked out of character, he turned to Alice and asked one more time to be sure that he had heard well. “ What did you say again?”. “ Irene is back to the entertainment industry and even has a shoot going on”. “ She assured me she wasn't going to come to the industry. Do you know the movie she will be starring in?” He asked curiously. “ No I didn't get that details but she seem pretty close to Wren's family from my observation”. She skipped the part where Alex was involved as she wasn't sure about her relationship with him, and Alex was a prominent figure who wouldn't want to daint himself for a mere actress. Irene might as well be his intimate toy but she doubts— he barely converse with ladies. “ And I've been trying to secure a deal with them for a while now. Even if I ask her at the moment she would deny it”. He said as he felt torned inside of him. Something was feeling amiss he just couldn't pinpoint. Then he asked Alice as an idea struck him. “ D
SHOCKING REVELATION Irene looked at the pictures in her hand, her hands trembling at the sight of what she just saw, she couldn't believe the truth that was unfolding right now she clenched her fist into a ball one could see the veins on her head almost popping out, with that she stormed out of the room in anger towards the garden. “Robert Robert” she called from a distance on getting there she hurled the pictures at him “What is this Robert?, I need an explanation.” Looking at the pictures on the ground he felt a little bit scared but didn't show it. One is the woman that loves him unconditionally while the other one in the picture was the woman he loves wholeheartedly. “So the mistress you've been seeing all this while is my best friend?....That was why you ditched our anniversary dinner to go and meet her” she yelled her voice almost cracking but that was nothing compared to the pain that she felt in her heart. “I'm not going to deny the fact of what you saw but I lov
MET BY ACCIDENT Raising her head up, her eyes met with a very dangerous gaze , came out of the store and interrupted her reply she shivered at the sight of this person “I'm asking if you can see clearly?” this time his forehead. slightly twitched “I'm so sorry it was a mistake, I... I really am” she replied trying to leave his presence as soon as possible “Do you think sorry is enough for what you've done uh... little kitten?” he said with a wry smile that looked so creepy. “ I..... I don't know how i —” Just then Alexander's assistant came “I've carried out the order, it's how you want it to be boss ” he said Irene felt like it was a perfect opportunity to escape this dangerous man she just met, he seemed very creepy “Oh! runaway little kitten do you really think I wouldn't know if you slipped off ” he muttered and looked in the direction she ran to before a wicked devasting smile appeared on his charming face Charles — “dumbstrucked”, What is happening? his b
COINCIDENCE Stepping out of the room Irene was looking more dashing than ever, she was about to walk out of the door when the aunt who cooks called her. “Madam aren't you eating breakfast?, the food is ready ma'am and master would join us soon” Irene stopped abruptly looking at the aunt with a smile and said. “ I won't be eating breakfast, I would be eating out and please I'll love to address something I'm not the madam of the house” “But mada.....—” “She's correct, you would get to know the madam soon, serve the dishes I'm hungry” Robert chipped in while coming from the stairs, the cook was shocked but did as was told immediately though she pondered on who the new madam is. Irene didn't bother looking and just headed straight out. Robert looked at the back profile that was leaving and for some reason he was feeling guilty but just then his phone rang and the caller ID was Alice so he pushed the thought
Irene ignored her and walked up the stairs not wanting to have any conversation with her as she had considered her a lifeless soul. “ Where do you think you're going to?”. Irene stopped abruptly and looked at Alice by the stair case squinting her eyes meaningfully “What does it look like?” “Don't you think we need to talk? or are you going to act like there's nothing to address” Alice said smirking at Irene like one who had won a foreseen battle. Irene glanced at her with dislike and thought that I'll only be nice if she'd give her a piece of her mind. “What should we talk about..... uhh, that you betrayed me or you were my fiance's Mistress while you pretended to sympathize with me all along”. this time she spoke slightly up angry “We should talk about how sly you are right, how I took you as family, how we've been friends for almost a decade now and you think this is how you repay me for the good deeds I have done for you” “ Spare
STRANGER IN MY ROOMIrene looked at the notification that popped up on her phone with joy. She didn't expect that it would be so fast, and she was extremely lucky to audition for the best agency. She hoped to put in her best and be selected as an actress in Xan's Agency. Yes, she was confident and expectant to the day. “ What did you say to Alice to get her worked up, knowing fully well that she is pregnant and does not need to be angered? "Uhhh” Robert asked, jolting Irene from her joyful moment. “ What do you possibly think I can say to a mistress? Uhh, Is she really worth my time?” She replied, rolling her eyes at the couple. She was tired of bumping into these people. It would be best if she left the house for them. After all, she was starting afresh and their presence would only slow her down. “Apologize to her Now ” “I should do what?”. “Apologize, and I will turn a blind eye to what you have done for the past few day
Irene halted as fear crept in. She had just left the house not too long ago and now a strange man was in her room looking drunk. She couldn’t deny the fact that this man was good-looking, but it didn't change the fact that she was half-naked; she didn't want to think of the possible things that could happen. “ Who are you? And what are you doing in my room?” she said as her voice started cracking up. Her world is almost collapsing right now; with her best friend and supposed fiancé being together, a strange man is in her room. “ Hmm, isn't that the little kitten that ran off the other day?”. Alexander said as his steps became unsteady due to the drugs, he was frantically looking for his room, and to his surprise, he met his runaway kitten there. He wanted to send the person out immediately, but when he realized that it was her, he decided to play a small game. Besides, he found her amusing after she bumped into him the other day. Her being in his room must have been a mistake by t
( Alexander’s POV) I woke up stirred awake. My body ached in the most satisfying way, a reminder of the night before. I stretched lazily as my fingers grazed the soft skin beside me. I watched as she slept soundly beside me, I had just found out that I always wanted to appear wherever she is,but this night was not willingly. I had been tricked by the heiress of the Brooke's family, she invited me for dinner and with my mum pestering me, I had to give in since it was just a dinner, little did I know that she had a plan in mind .She spite my drink in order to sleep with me, get pregnant obviously and pin the pregnancy on me which will later lead to a successful arranged marriage. I had always admired a relationship where love was the foundation and it wasn't forced. I wasn't even in need of it until someone catches my attention. I glanced at her , her dark hair sprawled across the pillow as I watched her turning here and there on the bed. I stood up as I searched aro

Nobody paid attention to Alice as everyone was overwhelmed by their own emotions. The grannies son immediately recognized Alex as he walked up to him. His wife has already gone into the room to look at her found baby—Overwhelmed was an understatement. “ Greetings Mr Alex” he said stretching his hands for a shake, it wasn't easy to meet him on a daily basis and as a matter of fact. Alex was the one who alerted him about his daughter. “ Thank you so much for the rescue” he added. Alex's eyes only moved around Irene's body indicating that he wasn't the one who did it but still he thanked Alex and Irene so much. Alice was surprised at the certain turn of event—irene knew this people?. She was beyond shocked. Alice stood stupefied as she watched the gestures of the elites unfild before her eyes. Just when she thought she had seen it all. Wren a profound actress known for her amazing skills and abilities rushed forward as she looked at her Mom— the little girl’s grannie, comforting h
Alice had rallied her head around the possibilities of Irene exposing her, seeing that her plans were futile she scoffed. “ Did Irene just get a hold of my emotions just now? Pathetic!”. She looked at Irene as she laughed like a crazy asshole. “ Do you think that at this moment a word from your mouth could make Robert mistrust me? Hahaha, Irene be wise, it's needed. Haven't you asked yourself this question huh You've dated Robert for three years if not more and in the span of a few months with a proper plan, I got a hold of him. Can't you see the logic!” Her voice slightly raised as she looked at Irene in triumph. “ I won darling, I took your man, took your space and might as well take your shine”. She said as she held her purse and picked out her handkerchief to clean her face, rubbing her belly with her other hand just to mock Irene.“ About taking my shine, we'll see about that as for the man you can have him. I can see you have a knack for leftover crumbs”. “You—” Alice could
She walked out as she faced Alex and thanked him continuously. “ Thank you so much, I couldn't be more grateful. Is it okay for your girlfriend to come over for dinner and eat?” She added. “ Girlfriend?” Irene widened her eyes in shock “ Will this woman stop already? I'm not his girlfriend; why does she keep on saying that?”. She thought as she looked at Alex, but instead, he was enjoying the thought of her being his girlfriend. He wouldn't have liked it if Irene went somewhere without his notice, but he could make an exception for the grannie since she addressed her well. “ Very well she can”. Alex replied as he smirked in between. “ Huh! I can my foot, is he my guardian or what?” But the words couldn't come out of her mouth as it was stuck in her throat. Alex liked her struggle, he knew at once what she wanted to say. Irene laughed awkwardly to ease the tension she was feeling as she turned to the granny and said, “ You didn't really have to ask him; I would have come on my own”.
The little girl was in a very deep sleep at the moment, she was starved of food and rest so her body is in it for rest. The grandmother asked Irene after a moment “ What's your name dear?”. She smiled in-between. Irene was a humble and respectful person, even when she mistakenly matched her feet she didn't say anything about it instead she apologized unlike that bitch. “ My name's Irene” she replied as she stared at the little girl on the bed. “What would have happened if she didn't look for the girl or if she had ignored instead?”. She thought. “ Ohh! That's a beautiful name. I'd like to know you better, maybe you can do me the honour of inviting you for dinner”. She added. “ Please don't say No… at least a thank you from me to you”. “ Alright ma No problem” she replied given the persuasion, she could also use it to get close to people. “ You can call me Aunt okay” she said as she turned and held Irene hands. Irene grinned, her happiness showing in her eyes, she didn't really nee
The woman apologized as she rushed, checking each wards for her child. Alice followed her and dragged her by the hair as she slapped her hard in the face. “ You pushed me and you think you could go away right? She asked as she pushed the woman to the wall angrily. “ Huh, you pathetic soul! How dare you?” She added as she just couldn't bring herself to understand the audacity of poor people. “ I.. I said I was sorry, wasn't that enough?” The woman yelled at the top of her voice as she attracted more on lookers. “ Sorry? You say. What if something had happened to my child huh. What will you have done? Say the same sorry?”. She counter said as she now gained the sympathy of onlookers.“ She's heartless, she pushed a pregnant woman and she thinks an apology can fix that. What if something truly happened to her?” one of the patient said, with other people concurring.The woman scoffed. Whoever this person is, she was going to pay dearly for it, she didn't know what she was playing with.
Irene stood at the door of the ward, from the transparent glass she could see the drips being attached to the little girls body, she wondered who the parents of the girl was. She panicked for a moment as she had not heard anything from the doctor since he had not come out since he entered, she prayed secretly that the girl was okay. Alex noticed her worries as he approached her and let her lean on his shoulder. He patted her back as a form of comfort, as he kept reassuring her in silence. Just then his phone vibrated, he checked the ID and took permission to take the call.“ I'll be right back okay, stay right here!” He ordered and left after he had received a reassuring nod from her, Today when she had called him to come meet her in a certain place, he became worried as to why she was always falling into trouble, his heart skipped a bit, he didn't want anything to happen to her. For the first time in his life he felt the urge to protect someone who wasn't his family. Irene sat at th
Alex looked at them, his demeaning look not giving them a space to even pull up their act. They were feeling intimidated by the moment as they feared Alex. The moment they saw him with the child, they could recognize that he was no ordinary person. “ Ohh, sir thank you for finding my child, I've been looking everywhere for her” the one who acted like her father came as he rushed to touch the girls tender face, he didn't decode early enough from the other members. Irene but her lips, she thought she had disguised the little girl but it seems they were still able to recognize her. Of course they will, probably the shoe and also the head warmer wasn't placed in her head appropriately due to rush. “ Move” was the only word Alex blurted out from his lips, and in an instant they parted way leaving them in shock, the leader of the gang knew that whoever Alex maybe he was not an ordinary person to be toyed with, he was way more than they could imagine, the aura he emitted was beyond their u
Irene chuckled as she left, it wasn't easy to be an artist In this company let alone land a major role in a movie. On normal circumstances she was suppose to go for endorsements,but seems like her previous works paid off. She took the script in her hands and stood up, as she walked carefully out of the building to get a taxi, this time she was at alert as she kept looking into every direction. Suddenly, a little girl approached her as she felt very hungry to eat, she looked abandoned and almost lifeless at the moment. Irene immediately have compassion for the little girl, althought she was being careful, they could use anyone as a bait but she still cared to listen to the little girl. “ Hey Auntie” the little girl said, her voice frail as she didn't have any energy to talk much. “ Hello, How are you beautiful” Irene responded paying full attention to her. “ I'm fine” she replied, at every reply she received the girl lost strength over and over again. “ Can you help me with mon
