Lora was about to shut her up when Brittany cut her off.“I don’t know what you saw but I’m pretty sure I wasn’t with Cole last night! If you have nothing else to say please get out of this place, you can have Cole all to yourself I’m not interested in him I moved on a long time ago” “What a bold-faced liar you are, well let me tell you something Cole and I are planning our wedding shortly we’re going to move in together and I’m not happy with the way he keeps spending his days and nights with you I’m not happy about it, don’t push me to expose you to the world,” Luna said getting up. “You must have lost your damn mind I said I’m not interested in him get out before I kick you out myself” Brittany yelled.Luna got up and made for the exit.“And congratulations to you both” Brittany called out.“Thank you” Luna responded without looking back.When she left Brittany turned to Lora “Can you imagine? Why would she think that I was secretly seeing Cole behind her back?”“I’m also… you k
For a few minutes, Lora couldn't bring herself to think straight or do anything. She had never fought with Brittany since they became friends they were like sisters and even people thought they were. Even when Brittany moved from one foster home to another they still stuck together at a point they even lived together. Lora only agreed to join forces with Cole because she saw the repentance in Cole’s words and actions. She also felt Cole was the best person to end her friend’s endless suffering and loneliness. They were two people without a family who else could understand them like they understood each other?She picked up her phone and called Boris.“Boris there’s trouble, I might lose my sister because of you and your annoying boss!” She cried when Boris answered the phone.“What’s wrong?” Boris asked with concern.“Luna came here to warn Bre to stay away from her man and to stop planning a surprise party for him” Lora announced.“Oh my goodness! So Bre has found out the truth?” B
Cole stared at Sean in doubt, “he’s a snatcher” he kept whispering to himself but what if he wanted to be of help this time around? He decided to give him another chance.“Okay… let’s go” he responded and stepped out with Sean.Sean drove Cole back home all the while telling him what to do “Go see her in your disguise, when she asks why you’re home tell her you don’t feel well and so you took the night off, buy some takeouts you know she loves food, don’t be nervous, do you hear me?” Sean said in a soothing voice to his best friend who only frowned in response.“If you show any signs of nervousness she’s going to suspect something, pull this one off you can always reveal your true self to her another day… but for today be the Vincci she’s falling in love with” Sean continued.“Just shut up all this mess is because of you, if you had kept Genevieve under control this wouldn’t have happened,” Cole said trying to look for someone to push the blame on.“I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that be
Cole watched Brittany fall asleep in his arms, when noticed she was deep in sleep he carried her gently in his arms and took her to her room, tucked her in, and stared at her face for a while admiring her. He was tired of admiring her he got up and went to the living room. Cleaned up and then lay on the couch reliving their kissing scene in his mind. He kept smiling boyishly and touching his lips till he fell asleep. He was the first to wake up the following morning, he hurried to the kitchen and made some hangover soup for Brittany before she woke up. Then went to the bathroom to freshen up, he had taken off his shirt when he heard a loud knock on the door. He hesitated to step out of the bathroom but before he could step out he heard Brittany go to the door.Brittany opened it without a second thought to check the door camera and see who was there, the moment the door flew open Pietro stepped and greeted her with a smile on his face.“We meet again Brittany,” he remarked. Brittany t
Cole almost cried out exasperation, he wished he could’ve gone out there and kicked the hell out of Pietro but how was he supposed to do that without getting caught? And now how was he supposed to talk Brittany out of going? He dressed up and came out of the bathroom. Brittany who had closed the door and While walking back to the living room met him. She stopped and stared at him in a confused state she asked.Why are you here? When did you get here?” Then she remembered that she was with him the preceding night but why had he come and what had happened? The alcohol had taken half of her memories.Cole turned on his speech function “I came last night, I took time off work I wasn’t feeling well”Brittany went red in the face, so he had seen her in her drunken state and even tucked her in bed. Did she misbehave? Did she puke on him? “Oh… erh… I hope I wasn’t too much of a problem” she blushed.Cole shook his head he was rather disappointed, that Brittany had forgotten their special m
Brittany took hurriedly got into s taxi to the bar, she left earlier so she could catch up with Lora before she left for home to get some sleep. When she got there Lora was bent over the counter with a sad puppy face. She quickly straightened up when she saw Brittany walk in.“Bre!” She exclaimed she was relieved that her friend showed up. She thought she was going to stay at loggerheads with her.Brittany took long strides and sat behind the counter.“Good morning Lora” she sighed.“Good morning Bre, you never answered any of my calls neither did you respond to my texts are we good?” Lora quizzed while Brittany just gave her a stern look.“We’re good Lora, I’m not mad anymore” she finally responded.“You’re not?” Lora asked in shock.Brittany shook her head “no” then leaned against the counter “Let me tell you what happened from yesterday to this morning”Lora pulled a chair and sat on it “I’m all ears” she said with glee.“So I was so sad and felt betrayed by you that I boozed myse
“That’s even a breach of contract you know that you can even be arrested for trespassing, you remember when you signed that agreement and agreed to keep your side of the bargain if you walk onto the property they could even shoot you and say it was self-defense against you who trespassed upon their property” Naya rattled visibly shaken by Cole’s declaration.“Cole think about this, if you die or are sent to jail how are you going to protect this woman? You need to think about it” Sean said more pleadingly.“Mr. Williams I can go with her if you want” Boris offered. “I’m going and that’s final and Boris you’re com with me,” Cole said.“Cole, are you suicidal?” Sean asked getting up from his seat to face Cole.“You people just don’t get it, Brittany is in this mess because of me, had it not been for me she wouldn’t have moved to Rochester and met Pietro, I’m responsible for this and I have to take care of her” Cole said calmly.“Okay fine, we can all sit down and discuss this very wel
Luna wasn’t pleased with how Cole hadn’t come to see her even after she had gone to cause a ruckus at Brittany’s workplace. That wasn’t the reaction she was expecting, she was expecting Brittany to angrily lash out at Cole who will in turn come to her, she’d then lure him again to spend the night this time with the hope that something would happen instead of him passing out and forgetting that they even spent the night together. How come none of the schemes had worked? She wasn’t exactly thrilled with it.You could sense her anger throughout her photoshoot even when the photographers asked her to smile she only faked it and it was obvious. Arabella rushed to her side during break and though Luna seemed irritated it didn’t stop her (Arabella) from gossiping with her.She shifted closer to Luna and whispered in her ears “Looks like Brittany was more shameless than you measured her to be, she doesn’t stop does she?”Luna blinked in confusion “What did she do? I thought she was off soci
Luna broke down and wept as Pietro hugged her and consoled her. After she sniffed and composed herself she stared at Pietro and wiped her tears. “I want to write an apology to Cole and ask him to forgive me, I’ll admit my wrongdoing and beg him to not sue me… I’ve already started losing my modeling contracts” she cried.“If that’s what you want I’ll help you write it, anything you want just tell me, and I’ll do it with you” Pietro offered. Luna wiped her tears with a smile on her face and nodded.“Okay,” she turned around and made for her couch,“Won’t you at least give me a hug?” Pietro asked Luna rolled her eyes at him. Brittany was seeing that all her things were packed into Cole’s villa, alongside the new equipment she had bought for her vlog. Fabricio walked slowly around the villa holding his walking stick, it was part of his morning exercise routine to help him recover from his surgery and strengthen his heart. He stopped beside Brittany who was standing a few meters away fr
So Cole had been doing his underground investigation and never mentioned it to anyone? Naya thought to herself she had to applaud him on that one. Brittany stood by her husband as he revealed everything little by little and couldn’t help but admire him even more.“Mr. Williams does it mean that you are not going to accept responsibility for the baby she’s carrying,” Arabella asked suddenly trying to defend Luna even though all odds were against her.Cole stared straight into her eyes and gave her a half smile, “that leads me to the most important video in this entire collection”He fast-forwarded the video to Luna’s wardrobe where there were all kinds of silicone baby bumps starked in there at all levels of pregnancy. “What you see are fake baby bumps Luna purchased to fool me into thinking I made her pregnant… if you think I’m lying I bring in the delivery guy who brought all her purchases and I will show you her receipt of the list of items she paid in the past two months”Arabell
The internet was running wild after seeing Cole and Brittany outside having fun together and were anxiously waiting for a response from the couple. While people were waiting to hear something from the couple, they were fast asleep in each other’s arms. However, their beautiful sleep was interrupted by Naya’s loud pounding on the door. Cole opened his eyes and rolled his eyes, he lay Brittany down gently and got out of bed to attend to the knocker.Naya stormed in looking very angry, “Cole don’t you know how to treat things urgently, how can you be asleep when your career is in danger?”“Ssh my baby is sleeping” he hushed her infuriating her even more. Brittany yawned and sat up.“Now you’ve woken her up” Cole sighed.“God, I want you two to get dressed up and come to my office but at 9:00 we have a press conference to address the public about everything that has gone on and also Cole you’re announcing your return to the holy magic game show as a host”“But…”“No buts you two should
When paparazzi saw Cole and Brittany in public they started taking photos of them. They hurried inside the boutique holding hands.“Cole, was this a bad idea?” Brittany asked as the paparazzi continued to follow them.“Mr. Williams, how do you feel now that your stepmother is in prison?” One reporter asked.“Mr. Williams, is it true that you bribed Brittany to marry you to hide your sexuality?” Another asked.Cole chuckled while holding on tightly to Brittany’s hand.“Some women swear you’re gay when you reject them” Cole mumbled but it was loud enough for the reporters to hear them.“So is it true that you beat Miss Luna up?” Came yet another question.“Miss Brittany Byers, is it true that Cole fooled you with marriage?” One reporter asked Brittany.Brittany stopped and grabbed the mic from him and with a stern look yelled “Cole is my husband period! If you believe what some delusional woman tells you that’s your problem” She dropped the mic on the floor and took Cole’s hand draggin
They both sat on the bed and had their breakfast from the bed tray table Cole turned on the TV while Brittany screamed.“No!”But the TV was already on and there Luna sat in a round table discussion crying and playing victim.“At that time my father was just a lowly foreman of the Bellini farm, we dared not disobey Rania, so I had no option than to blame Cole… it was hard and I was so sad I wanted to beg him but how to do that without reminding him of the past? This is why I kept my identity hidden from him, to protect him from the trauma” she said sadly.Cole’s grip tightened around the tv remote as he closed his eyes in anguishThat’s enough!” Britany said and snatched the remote from him and turned the tv off.“I will kill her! She blamed me because of money how dare she lie about it… I’ll kill her with my bare hands”Brittany cupped his face in her palms and kissed his forehead.“The last thing I need is for you to go to jail okay? let’s teach her a lesson, one she’ll never forge
“I’m envious of my friend. He gets to have such a beautiful gem like you by his side…” Sean remarked.“Sean, why are you here?” Brittany asked and offered him a seat while settling in an armchair beside him.“Bre, Cole was arrested right after we left the hangar on accusations from people he didn’t even know about”Brittany gasped, how come no one told her about it? She wondered to herself.“Is he okay?” She asked about getting out of her seat when Sean touched her hand and patted it gently.“Luna offered to help him only if he married her, she even offered to help him expose Rania to the world … to which he agreed because he was desperate, but guess what”“What?”“When Cole was preparing to wed her he told her to keep it a secret he intended to ditch her after he had exposed Luna but barely had he gotten dressed when he found out one shocking secret”Brittany’s heart skipped a beat, why had Sean stopped talking? What did Cole find out? Was he okay?“Why have you stopped? Talk I’m li
Luna shook her head, “No… no I won’t do it… I can’t do it”Pietro went into the room and closed the door behind him “Maria, my dad is suing my mum for a huge amount in the name of defamation, if she loses this case then she will not only go to jail but have a lot of money to pay too” “It’s unlikely that she’ll win even if I claim Cole raped me, Cole still won the case if I make a statement I’ll also be in trouble” Luna tried to explain to him.“Maria, you remember how Cole stood you up at the altar? Don’t you want to get back at him?” Pietro queried her.“I do!” She responded.“So say it, tell the world that he raped you”Maria stared at Pietro, now she was seeing him well, he looked like his brother Cole, and yes he was just as handsome as him but why did she hate him so much? Certainly, it was only because of what he did to her but something more, was it because he never apologized or became his mother treated the case as if giving her money would cure the pain he caused her?Now
She was indirectly threatening anyone who opposed her and the executives knew it. “Let the voting begin!” Soon the projector was displaying a number of votes with people bold enough to side with Lucio and those scared to disagree with Rania.“We will be taking notes of your votes for future use thank you” Rania passively warned them. When the voting session was over Rania smiled it was a tie with no majority. She smirked “Since it was a tie the new CEO and I will cast our votes too…”“Which new CEO? When was a new CEO announced?” Fabricio’s voice boomed through the speakers and startled everyone. Fabricio stormed in, in the company of some guards and Naya.Rania and Pietro ran from the podium in shock.“Hello, Rania!” Fabricio greeted with a sarcastic smile on his face.“Oh my darling Fabricio so you were alive” She shed some crocodile tears and tried to run to his side but Fabricio brushed her aside and took over the podium and adjusted the mic to a better position.“Hello every
Rania helped Pietro dress up while Luna sat outside the room waiting for them. Soon they both stepped out and Luna sprung up from the stool on which she sat. The trio marched to the corridor about to exit the hotel room when Rania stopped immediately and turned to Pietro. She fixed the collar of his shirt with a proud smile on her face,“Finally son, we’re here the world is waiting to see the new CEO” “Are the autopsy results out?” Pietro asked feeling uneasy about the whole situation. They had promised to not announce a new CEO till the results were out and Fabricio was buried. Why the rush? Was the merger that important to her?“Today is your day and all you can think about is some stupid autopsy?” Rania snapped at him.“I’m asking because it would make my day complete if we had the report of what caused Dad’s death” he leaned in closer and whispered in his mother’s ear “We could end the day by accusing Cole of murdering him” He stared at Luna’s face maybe if Cole goes to jail Lu
