After leaving star entertainment, Cindy went back to her house. She was feeling very hungry because she hadn't eaten any food the whole day.She cooked and ate and decided to see a movie since she now had so much free time. Meanwhile, Maya began calling her friends both far and near to inform them about her upcoming wedding.She wanted them to be prepared so that the moment she was certain of the date, she would let them know and they would make the time to attend.When she was through making calls, Maya went back to Jack's office but this time around, her look was different. She dressed up like her usual elegant self and wore a little make-up on her face.When Jack got back to his office, he continued with his work. He was making plans because he wanted Chris Belov, a very famous actor to sign with his agency. He was going to be around in two weeks time and Jack was hoping to get an audience with him at a grand party which would be held around that same time.He wanted to know everyt
Jack sighed and replied, "Listen spencer, no matter what happens, I need you to be there. Everyone else might be absent and I won't care but not you. If you value our relationship and consider me your brother, then please come to my engagement party."Spencer still wanted to convince Jack otherwise but Grant snatched his phone and yelled at him. "What is wrong with you? Now that Jack has come back to his senses and dumped that social climber, why are you still trying to get them back together?You should be happy that he is getting married to Maya. We all know her for long and have been convinced by her. She is well mannered, from a good family and would never be a burden on Jack.I completely approve of her so I do not want to hear your voice in this matter again." Spencer angrily snatched back his phone and walked out on all of them.Jack overheard their conversation and shook his head. Meanwhile, Spencer dialled Cindy's number. Cindy saw the call but refused to answer it because sh
Maya got donned in her beautiful diamond studded gown. At her request, her makeup was exquisitely designed by a professional artist and her hair was styled like that of a princess with a glistening crown around it.When she looked at herself in the mirror, she felt like crying. She knew this was just an engagement party but it was a dream come true for her.She really looked like a princess and knew that she was definitely going to be the center of attraction at her party.When it was thirty minutes to time, she came out of the hotel in the company of her friends. She had booked a room at the hotel where the party was going to be held because she felt it was more convenient that way.When she had asked Jack to also book a room, he had refused and said he would feel more comfortable if he came to the party from his house.Jack's family members arrived when it was five minutes to the time. Spencer joined them in the end because regardless of everything, Jack was his brother and he loved
Cindy smiled excitedly at Jack and said, "count me in."Jack left to meet Maya while Cindy went back to her house to wait for Jack. She was eager to know how Jack found out about Maya's true colors.It was funny that she tried so hard to show him the truth but did not succeed and in the end, he discovered it by himself.Cindy used the opportunity to clean her house and make some food for Jack. She felt so happy and relieved as she believed that her relationship with Jack was going to go back to the way it used to be.Jack came to Cindy's house about an hour later. He pulled her closer and tried to kiss her but Cindy refused because she was more interested in hearing about what happened in her absence.They both sat on the couch and Jack began to explain. "The day Maya accused you of pouring hot coffee on her and I believed her, was the day I found out the truth.After you broke up with me and I took Maya to the hospital, I suddenly began to think about everything. One thing I knew for
Cindy stared at Jack and listened attentively as he continued to explain.A few years back, I had trouble sleeping and would stay awake almost throughout the night. I began to take Benzo pills for a while and they work in less than ten minutes, but I noticed that they had an adverse effect on me.No matter how much I was stimulated, I would not be able to have an erection for twenty-four hours. Eventually, I stopped taking them and found other ways to treat myself until I got better.I had no plan of ever stepping foot in Maya's house again since I had discovered her true nature but I knew she would definitely come to my house in order to carry out her plans.So, I installed cameras in my living room and every other room in my house. Then I got some Benzo pills on my way back from the office and kept them in my drawer.True to my speculations, Maya came to see me and you wouldn't believe that she looked exactly like you. Your kind of clothes, shoe, bag, makeup, and perfume. She even d
Jack smirked, "that's exactly what I thought. However, I am wondering if she would bring a fake pregnancy test or if she would find a random guy to get her pregnant so she could pin it on me."Cindy thought for a while and said, "I can help with that. If you ever have to meet with her again, make sure I am around. Once she confesses that she is pregnant, I will suddenly act crazy and drag her to the hospital for a pregnancy test.You can pretend to stop me but make sure you give me enough time to carry out the test. I know just the right hospital for that and I'm guessing Maya would show up between two weeks to a month.So, Jack once her pregnancy is confirmed, what will you do?"Jack smiled before replying, "I will ask her to marry me and stand her up on the day of the wedding. No, that would take too much time and I can't stand her face anymore.I will fix an engagement party. Judging by her character, I'm sure she will invite so many dignitaries. I want her to feel absolute shame w
Jack lifted Cindy, bridal style, and was carrying her to her bedroom when her phone began to ring.She asked him to put her down and quickly answered the call when she saw that it was from Spencer. He said to her, "congratulations on finally giving Maya what she deserves Cindy. However, you might want to get your sword ready because Maya is on her way to your house and she is spitting venom.""How predictable" Cindy replied. "Thank you so much Spencer for your invaluable support towards my relationship with Jack. I believe that soon you will find a woman whom you truly love and who loves you back."Spencer said, "Nope, I don't see that happening in the near future. Take care and bye."When Spencer hung up, Cindy stared at Jack and said, "Maya is on her way here.""Then what are we waiting for?" Jack asked and dragged the protesting Cindy into the bedroom.Cindy said, "let's deal with Maya first Jack, I don't want her to get here while we are in the middle of something so amazing.""Ar
Cindy closed her door and stood in front of it. She folded her arms and stared at Maya condescendingly as her friends helped her up from the ground.Looking at Maya's appearance, Cindy couldn't help but admit that she looked glamorous and beautiful. However, she would not hesitate to put Maya in her place if she tried to cross the line again.Maya wiped her hands and her butt. She pointed at Cindy and said, "you slut, where is Jack? Where are you hiding him? I know you are jealous of me and can't bear to see me happy but I'm carrying Jack's child and there's nothing you can do about it.Bring Jack out right now otherwise, I will let everyone in this neighborhood know that you are a slut who is trying to take away the father of my child."Cindy stared at Maya and started to laugh. "If my memory serves me right, which I believe it does, you were the same lunatic who came here yesterday to rub your relationship with Jack on my face.Didn't you say 'Maya gets whatever she wants? Jack is
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
When Cindy picked up the call, Chris said, "I am so sorry Cindy, I didn't know that Jack was innocent. Please, I know Lily was wrong and I'm sure she has learned her lesson. Withdraw the case against her and let's settle this amicably. I know that Jack will listen to you.Going back to court over this same issue will only cause more harm to my reputation and career, please.""It's okay Chris" Cindy replied. "If you want Jack to withdraw the case, he will do so but there's a condition. Lily should make a video of herself apologizing to Jack for framing him up and she has to sound sincere. She should post it on I*******m and tag him. When Jack has seen the video, he will withdraw the case.""Okay, she will do that" Chris replied. "thank you, Cindy." The moment Chris ended the call, Lily said "no, how can you agree to such a thing? I will not humiliate myself publicly.""You have no choice" Chris replied angrily. "There's already a sex video of you and everyone knows you deliberately did
Both Lily and Chris stared at Cindy in shock while the judge said to the officers present, "take her into custody."Lily screamed and tried to struggle when the officers came to grab her while Chris said, "calm down Lily and stop struggling, I will get you out in no time."Lily covered her face in shame as she was being led out of the courtroom while the reporters frantically took pictures and videos of her.Within a twinkling of an eye, the news of how Lily willingly made a sex tape with a strange guy and uploaded it on social media just to force Jack into marrying her went viral. Many people were left in shock that a girl who appeared to be so polished and classy could stoop to such a level.All those who had called Jack vile names began to take back their words and ask for forgiveness from him and the artists in his Agency. Chris got Lily out on bail a few hours later and had to fetch her at the station with bodyguards to stop the citizens who were hell-bent on clamoring around th
