Nora was done eating and was about to leave for the club but the moment she sauntered outside the house. She noticed Ray outside their house.“Oh hi, please is Rose in?!” he had asked the minutes he saw her. “Oh yeah, but she is already asleep right now. She was out all day looking for a job, and she went to bed almost immediately!” Nora told him.“Is that so?” Ray questioned while rubbing his sweaty hands on his clothes. “Would you like me to wake her up for you?” Nora inquired while turning back but he was quick to stop her instantly. “No, you shouldn't bother. We should let her catch up on her sleep because she is working very hard as it is!” Ray said with a small smile masking his face.“I know what you mean, she pushes herself too much sometimes. She's been having financial problems lately and she's worried about her tuition. She needs to buy textbooks as well then and there’s a thing with her sisters again!” Nora explained.“I truly want to help her out, I wish I could do som
“So how would this event of mine be like?” Claudia asked further.“Here is what I have been thinking. As a very good and close friend of yours, I know that you are dealing with your personal problems right now but I want you to know that I would be the one to host the annual party of your company!” Tessa told her friend.“Are you serious?” Claudia questioned while shaking the glass cup of wine in her hands with a little smile of satisfaction masked on them. “Of course, I figured that since I’m doing well because of your company. I just think that it’s time to share some of my blessings too,” Tessa said with a charming and sweet smile.Meanwhile, Ray and Eric were seated at their favorite bar but the look on Ray’s face was bleak and wrinkled. “Waiter, two vodkas please!” Eric simply said before glaring at his friend. “What’s wrong with you dude? You don’t seem like you, did something happen?!” Eric questioned as they wait for their order to arrive .“I’m having a hard time, I honest
Late that evening, Claudia was in her room checking some files from the office when the door pulled wide open gaining her attention. “Mommy,” Raya's voice came, filling the room.“Baby,” Claudia said as she trudged to hug the little girl. “Alright then aunty, I would leave the two of you!” Lisa said before excusing herself.“Alright Lisa, I want to thank you for bringing Raya here!” Claudia said with a wide and excited grin.“You welcome auntie!” Lisa said before leaving. The minute she had left, Claudia slowly rubbed Raya’s face with a smile visible on her face. “Well honey, tell me, how are you?” Claudia asked as they both took a sit beside the bed.“Do you want something to eat? Do they know that you are coming here?” Claudia asked.“No, they have no idea because mother and her friend are not home right now and Daina is sleeping off a terrible headache. That was how I was able to go out!” Raya explained and that had left a kiss on her forehead. “You are very good, my child. Yo
Rodrigo gradually collected the gun from Jessica's angry grip. “That’s enough,” he had said while slowly staring into her eyes which had turned soft. “That's enough Jessica!” He repeated positively while placing the gun back in his pocket.She gave a simple and heavy puff as Rodrigo glared at the both of them before uttering his next word.“Alright, let’s start with a Plan!” Rodrigo finally said.“So what do you want to happen?” Manuel questioned while placing his hands on akimbo.“I want to see Claudia in prison while she pays darely for all the venomous things that she did to me!” Jessica instantly responded with a firm voice that showed off all her collarbones. “But then, what case can we file against her in court?” Manuel asked smartly.“Manuel, she had threatened to kill me and you were a witness to that, right? Why won’t you go and talk to Claudia’s men and let them testify against her?” She yelled out angrily yet again. “Impossible!” Manuel enunciated while wiggling his head
The night was cold and chilly, Ray seemed to be rubbing his both hands to keep them warm while he waited for Rose close to his expensive-looking black car. He slowly glared at the surroundings before adjusting his suit and tie. A little tap soon got his whole attention. He slowly swirled around to notice Rose dressed to kill, her makeup and dress made her stand out amazingly and Ray was almost drooling hard but he swiftly composed himself as a wide smile appeared on his lips. He kept smiling hard as he approached her. He was presently standing a few inches close to her as he glared into her eyes intently but that had only made her shy as she stooped her gaze. “Wow,” he finally said as a soft smile displayed on his face. “Ray, that's enough or the neighbors are going to notice,” Rose said glaring around intensely. “So, what if they are going to notice?” Ray questioned while licking his bottom pink lips. “Common, I think it's time to go before I change my mind!” she said trying t
“How could you do this? How could you do this to me?” she repeated in agony and anger.“Please don't make a scene!” Ray said ignoring the fact that he got slapped by her.“Ray, I have given everything to you. I have proven to you how much I love you but what did you do? You returned the favor by going out with that filthy woman!” Stephanie yelled in tears while pointing fingers at Rose.“Don't you dare talk to Rose like that!” Ray said blatantly.“Don't you get it? She is a social climber!” Stephanie screamed at the top of her voice while the guests got entertained.“Well, it doesn't matter to me because she belongs to me and it's none of your business.” Ray pointed out. “Don’t you get it that she loves hanging around with rich people, she took you away from me Ray. She only likes you for your money! Listen to me, you don’t know who you are talking about because it was me who wanted to know her and I was the one who professed my love for her,” Ray made clear.“How can you even do tha
The minutes they eventually got to where they had their car parked. Ray swiftly held Rose by the arms to halt her steps before speaking. “Rose, I'm sorry about what happened In there!” He apologized. “You didn't do anything wrong Ray, you didn't even have any idea that she was going to show up at the party,” Rose said calmly. “But what Stephanie had said to you wouldn't have been a surprise if I had told you myself and I’m sorry!” he muttered yet again. “Ray, it's honestly okay. I just got a little upset earlier!”She said with a little puff escaping her lips.“Rose, don't worry about it because I won't let Stephanie bother you again,” he told her but that ignited more frown on her very pretty face.“Is something bothering you?” he questioned.“It's not really Stephanie I'm worried about but it's about your parents, what would they think of me? I know that they want you to end up with Stephanie and not me, right?” Rose blurted out.“I want you not to worry about them because this
Jessica placed a knock on her daughter's door before pulling it open. She noticed that her daughter was getting ready to retire to bed! She glared at her for a few minutes before questioning her.“Is it true that you met up with Claudia today?” She questioned but Raya stopped what she was doing to glare at Jessica. “Is it true that you met up with Claudia today?” Jessica asked again with a raised and angry voice this time. “Start speaking right now Raya!” she yelled at the girl who seemed to have been trembling badly by her scream. “Mother, I’m sorry but please forgive me!” Was all the little girl said as a tear streamed down her cheeks.“Don’t you realize how hurt I’m because of what you have done? Don’t you even love me anymore?” Jessica asked with a huge frown.“Mother, of course, I love you but I only did what I did because I felt truly bad for mummy Claudia,” Raya said as more tears streamed down her cheeks.“But what about me? You never felt sorry for me, are you even aware t
