Angelo held Isabella's hand while they both ignored the weird stares they were getting from people. They got into a cab and arrived at the hotel in no time since it was very close to the harbor.As they passed by the conference hall, one of the organizers saw Angelo as he came out of the hall. He quickly walked up to him and greeted both him and Isabella happily."I am so happy that the both of you are alive, we thought you two were dead when the divers couldn't find you. I know you have both been through a lot and deserve enough rest so I won't take up too much of your time. But where is your wife?"Angelo looked at the man in surprise and while pointing at Isabella replied, "this is my wife."The man became surprised. "The other lady who was with you, Christabel Flores, said that she's your wife and you two were even seen together on the day of the conference."Angelo finally understood while Isabella stared at the both of them in silence. "She is not my wife but my employee" Angelo
Isabella returned Angelo's kisses and after kissing her for a while, he stopped and took off his singlet. He began undoing the buttons on her shirt once again but paused when he heard a grumbling sound.Isabella placed her hand on her belly as it made another grumbling noise. "Are you hungry?" Angelo asked.Isabella nodded her head and covered her face as she felt embarrassed that her stomach chose to complain at the wrong time.Angelo led her to the bed while he picked up the landline. He asked Isabella what she would like to eat and she said she was willing to eat any food that tasted good as long as it didn't have any connection with coconuts.Angelo laughed and ordered two plates of food and he was told that it would take a while. He decided to take a shower while they waited for the food to arrive.As he went into the bathroom, Isabella decided to look around for her phone. She vividly remembered leaving it behind on the day she went to the conference but she wasn't sure where sh
Isabella clutched Angelo's hair as her moans became louder. He went down lower and finally got to the curve between her legs. He licked her happy button with his tongue and Isabella's breath got stuck in her throat.He lifted her two legs wide apart to get better access but suddenly stopped when he heard a buzzing sound. He lifted his face and looked at Isabella whose cheeks were blushing.She stared at him in return as she struggled to control her breathing. They heard the buzzing sound again and Angelo got up to find out where it was coming from.Isabella felt that the sound was much closer to her and covered her body partially before checking around her sides.Angelo eventually located the source of the noise and it turned out to be Isabella's phone. He found it under the pillow just above her head and noticed that she had a call.When he stared at the screen and saw the name "my beloved" with Steve's face flashing, he felt the desire drain from his body. He handed the phone to Isa
Isabella sighed and sadly went to pick up her clothes. She didn't feel confident enough to get dressed while Angelo was in front of her so she went into the bathroom and wore her clothes.Angelo did not say anything about the call Isabella received from Steve and this unnerved her. She knew from experience that Angelo did not condone her being in contact with Steve so why wasn't he saying anything?She briefly considered asking him about it but changed her mind. If she began to explain herself, it might make her appear more guilty and make Angelo upset.After getting dressed, she let her wet hair still fall on her back and followed behind as Angelo walked out of the hotel room. He boarded a taxi and instructed the driver to take them to the police station.Throughout their journey to the station, Angelo did not say a word to Isabella and neither did he look at her. She became really afraid at this point and finally decided to speak. She didn't want Angelo to treat her like an enemy on
Isabella rolled her eyes when she saw Christy still denying in front of Angelo. Did she think they were fools?Angelo held Christy's hand and led her out of the station while Isabella followed behind sadly. Christy felt happy inside because she had thought Angelo didn't feel anything for her anymore.The fact that he bailed her out immediately and took her side gave her confidence that she still had a chance with him and would be able to kick Isabella out of his life.She stared at Isabella happily with a triumphant look on her face, thereby making Isabella feel sicker.Her happiness did not last as Angelo flung her to the side when they got out of the station. She stared at him in surprise while he pointed his hand at her and said,"do not get any foolish ideas. I already realized you pushed Isabella off the Cliff while I was still on the island. There are also video cameras that captured you while in the act so stop deceiving yourself.You are only free right now because Isabella ch
When Christy noticed that Angelo had left, she smiled triumphantly. No matter how much Angelo tried to deny it, she still affected him and now that she had proven it to herself, she was confident of her next plan.Isabella closed her eyes once again and tried to distract herself however, the scene of Angelo starting at Christy's nakedness kept bothering her.What right did she have to complain? Christy had been in Angelo's life for a long time and they had slept with each other so many times, hence it was normal for Angelo to still be attracted to her but, where was he?She got up from the bed when Christy left and decided to look for Angelo. She knew she was acting like the clingy and jealous girlfriend but she couldn't help herself. She was never like this even with Steve.She didn't know why Angelo suddenly had so much effect on her. Her feelings were probably one-sided and she knew it made her seem pathetic but she was still willing to follow her heart and see where it led.She no
Christy came out of the bathroom after spending more than one hour. She hoped that Isabella would have slept off from exhaustion considering how busy their day had been.When she came out of the bathroom, however, she saw Angelo sitting beside Isabella while they spoke about their time on the island. They seemed to be so besotted with each other that they didn't even realize her presence.She pretended to cough and finally got their attention when she walked over to where she kept her clothes. Just like before, she took off her towel completely and went naked, however, Angelo turned his eyes away from her this time around while Isabella went into the bathroom to shower.When Christy saw that Angelo didn't give Isabella a bath as he had said, she felt really happy and thought that it was because of what she had done.Isabella soon had her bath and came out of the bathroom. When it was time to sleep, she took her duvet and went over to the floor to sleep, just like she was made to do du
Angelo parked his car in front of the hospital and helped Isabella out. He held her uninjured arm and they both quickly got into the hospital. Isabella had stopped crying at this time but the pain in her arm was still there.They met the same doctor who had attended to Isabella the first time. He had a bad impression of Angelo so when he saw the injury on Isabella's arm, his first thought was that Angelo was the culprit.He decided to keep it to himself and began to clean the wound. Isabella closed her eyes as she winced in pain while Angelo held on to one of her arms and kept comforting her, "don't worry dear, you will be fine. It will be over before you know it."The doctor felt surprised. Angelo's caring attitude was in contrast to how he had acted nonchalantly about Isabella's plight the last time they were at the hospital.In the doctor's opinion, Isabella's condition now wasn't as severe as what she suffered back then so he was surprised by Angelo's enthusiastic concern.He had
Paige stared at the people in the audience, observing the different expressions on their faces. Some felt pity for her, some laughed at her, while others booed and gestured with their thumbs down. As tears streamed down her face, the other girls continued to sing, and no one waited for her. After Candy; the fourth person, finished singing, the first girl resumed. Paige's microphone had already been rolled away from where she stood. Unable to bear the shame any longer, she turned around and ran away from the stage. Candy smiled, feeling victorious, and said inwardly, "Now let me see how you will be among the top two."Paige did not stop running until she reached outside. Fearing that people might notice her and start pointing fingers at her, she searched for a quiet and hidden spot, finding solace leaning on a pillar. She covered her face with her hands and continued to cry, recalling how she had assured Mr. Zachary that she would not fail him. She felt even more disappointed in her
For Paige, everything seemed to be happening so fast. Just this morning, she was being called a thief and kicked out of her house. And now, she was going to be performing on a show tonight. She pinched herself to be sure she wasn't dreaming, and Jessica, who was staring at her, smiled, "Come on, let's go change your wardrobe.""Thank you very much, Sir," Paige said, wiping the joyous tears which had formed in her eyes."Don't worry about that. Just get ready to perform." Zach said.As Paige walked out, Zach stared at her, recalling his old days. His story seemed similar to hers as he had also been given a chance by someone he never expected. While they went shopping, Jessica asked Paige, "Are you related to Mr. Zach? I mean, he did say you're someone who belonged to him."Paige didn't know Jessica's relationship with Zach, so she didn't want to speak too much. She only said, "He's just helping me.""Come on, Mr. Zach doesn't help people just like that. I mean, everyone knows who he i
Paige sang for Zachary while he stood in awe, mesmerized by her performance. As she sang, she became so immersed that she closed her eyes and continued to pour her heart out. Zachary walked over to the bed, sat down, and kept his gaze fixed on her. When she finished singing, he exclaimed, "Wow! That was phenomenal.""Thank you, sir," Paige replied with a smile."I'm curious, how did you become such a talented singer? Don't worry, you can share it with me," he added, noticing her hesitation.Paige sighed and began her story, "Well, my mom was a gifted singer too. When she was young, her dream was to become a pop artist and her voice was perfect. However, her father, who was a billionaire, wanted her to take over the family business instead since she was his only child. She had to make a difficult choice between her passion and her responsibilities. Eventually, she took over my grandfather's company: Blanco Industries, but she never gave up singing. She recorded songs for herself but
"I'm sorry to trouble you, sir," Paige said. "Please, I want to ask for a favor.""What is it?" Zach asked."I will like to see you, please." She replied.Zach stared at all the men who were sitting in front of him and said, "Okay, I'll be right there."Getting up, he continued, "I think we've pretty much said everything that needed to be said at this meeting. I approve of your findings and now, I need implementation and results. Excuse me."After leaving the meeting room, Zach said to Luke, "Let's go back to the hospital."His assistant was surprised; Zach wasn't acting like himself. No one knew why he was being so kind and accommodating towards this girl. When they arrived at the hospital, he went in to see her. The moment Zach entered the room, Paige jumped off the bed in surprise and stared at him as her hands began to tremble. She instantly recognized him and who wouldn't? He was one of the wealthiest men in London and everyone said he was very ruthless. How could it be that thi
Zachary Fletcher stepped out of his palatial villa which was a stunning testament to his success and refined taste. Nestled in a picturesque location; Zach Estate, Mayfair was one of the most luxurious estates in London. His domestic staff lavished Zach with greetings but he merely nodded curtly and approached his Bugatti without noticing that his housekeeper and chef were staring at him longingly through the windows. His chauffeur, Tony, quickly ran and opened the back of his car, and after Zach sat down, Tony got into the front and began driving to Zachary Fletcher Conglomerate. On his way to the company, Zach made a phone call to his assistant, Luke, and asked, "Are you at the office?""Yes, sir," Luke replied."Good," Zach said and hung up.The moment he stepped out of his car, he began to make his way into the iconic skyscraper building. The CEO's personal office was on the highest floor. It was the only office on that floor and the most spacious in the building; offering panor
Paige Summers busied herself as she moved about, trying to ensure that all the guests were well cared for.She had been working since morning to make sure everything was perfect. It was the eighth-anniversary party of her father and stepmother. She wanted to be anywhere but there, but her father had warned that if she did not stay behind to take care of his guests, there would be dire consequences. As she moved around, serving the guests, they kept calling her here and there, and some even mistook her for the maid of the house. When she thought it was finally time for her to rest, her stepsister, Candy came out dressed in a beautiful, red, Valentino gown. One would think that it was her anniversary party judging by how much time she took to doll herself up.Once Candy was out, Paige began to hear different voices saying, "Wow! She looks like an angel!" "She's the daughter of Mr. Summers." "I heard she's a singer; one of the spark girls." "Have you seen her gown? it's from a top br
"How is it possible that each time I close my eyes, your face is the only thing I see? How do I tell you that when you are not with me, I get lovesick? How do I tell you that every second of my life is filled with thoughts of you? How do I tell you, Mr. Zach, that I have fallen head over heels in love with you?" - Paige ~~~~~~~ "From the moment I saw you, you became my reason for breathing. Even when darkness engulfs me, I only have to take one look at you and my world becomes bright again. I cannot live in a world without you in it. I love you, My Little Sunshine." - Zach. ~~~~~~~ They all said Zachary Fletcher was proud, ruthless, and callous but when eighteen years old Paige Summers was accused, disgraced, and left to die in the cold, Zach took her home and promised, "I will make you a star!" From that moment, she became his world. STORY TITLE; MY LITTLE SUNSHINE
NOVAEverything that was happening was like a big dream. My life's dream was coming true, and I felt so happy in a way I had never been before. Ella wouldn't understand how I was feeling, and to be honest, I regretted reconciling her with my dad. Her parents were together, and if I were in her shoes and trying to come between her mother and father, she would have made a big deal out of it and probably let the whole world know about it. So she ought to understand that I wanted my family to be together.I'd seen my dad suffer for years, from when I was a child to when I grew up and understood what was happening. He had mourned the loss of my mom for such a long time. Now that she was back, they had to rekindle whatever they had in the past, and probably he would get married to her, and we'd be one big family. This was what I wanted, but Ella wanted to ruin it. However, I put her in her place. My dad didn't disappoint me also. He was the best father in the world. He had been so amazing i
ELLAAfter listening to Nova's mother's phone conversation, I quickly ran to my car and drove out of the compound. I didn't know if she heard me drive out or if she realized that I had eavesdropped on her conversation, but one thing was sure: I needed to do something fast. I went to school and saw Nova. I stared at her, and it occurred to me to tell her about what I had heard, but then I changed my mind. There was no way she would take me seriously, considering the fact that she rolled her eyes at me when I looked at her, and she completely ignored me. When Aiden saw our interactions, he walked up to me and asked, "Are you and Nova fighting or something?" I shook my head, "No, we're cool. Thanks, Aiden." After that, I focused on what I had to do in school. Then after school, I left.I first went to a bar, which was strange, because I went alone. I had a bottle of alcohol. I needed it somehow; it was going to boost my morale for what I wanted to do. After drinking, I drove straigh
