Cindy opened her eyes in shock as she realized what Maya had just done. "This vixen was really good," she thought to herself. Before Cindy could say anything, Maya began to explain. "I noticed that Cindy wasn't happy with my presence so I took her hands and begged her to just tolerate me for a little more time. I will leave after my dad's burial. I told her that I really needed you as a friend right now but she flung my hands away and now my knuckles are in severe pain."Cindy opened her mouth but couldn't say anything. The next thing she did was laugh. She laughed so hard that even Maya became surprised. But Jack was not happy at all. He had clearly seen Maya take hold of Cindy's hands and saw her smiling. He had also seen Cindy fling Maya's hands and heard Maya beg her so he believed Cindy was wrong.He couldn't understand what her problem was. He had even asked for her consent to be there for Maya during her difficult period and Cindy had given him the go ahead so why was she bein
Cindy looked at him in disbelief, "how can you say that you don't know why I'm upset Jack?" Something happened between me and Maya and the first thing you do is look at me with accusing eyes and ask, why Cindy?You couldn't even wait for me to explain what happened, you quickly believed what Maya said and asked me to apologize and you say you don't know why I am upset? Aren't you being funny Jack?""Cindy, the only reason why I asked you to apologize was that I clearly saw what happened. I saw when Maya took your hands and I could see her smiling at you innocently. I also saw you fling her hands away so what are you talking about? You know what? Let's just forget about it. I brought seafood for you because I know you are very hungry right now.Cindy got up from her seat, took her bag, and walked toward where Jack stood. Taking the package from his hands, she said, "thank you very much Mr. Jack for this. I think you should worry more about if Maya is still hungry or willing to eat her
When Cindy got to the door of Jack's office, she noticed it was partially opened and was just about to go in when she heard Jack's phone ring. Her eyes squinted in anger when she heard Maya's name and as she listened to their conversation, a plan immediately came to her mind."Jack was staring at Cindy's picture on his phone when he saw Maya's call. He answered it and immediately stood up when he heard her crying. "What is it, Maya? Why are you crying?"Maya replied, "Jack, my car broke down and someone splashed dirty water on me when I came out to check what the problem is. This area is very dangerous and I'm completely drenched, please help me, Jack, I don't know who else to call.""Just calm down Maya and text me your location, I am coming there right away." Maya felt really happy that her plan was about to succeed. She quickly typed her address and sent it to Jack after which she took out the bottles of water she had kept in her car and emptied the contents on her body.Some pas
After trying unsuccessfully to call Jack for a while, Maya called his personal assistant Mr. Barrows. It was a good thing that she had collected and saved his number. He informed her that Mr. Jack had not left his office since he came in so, she asked him to kindly check for her so she could be sure.Jack clutched Cindy's hair tightly as she kept sucking his d*ck. He encouraged her, calling her so many sweet names and telling her how wonderful she was when he heard a knock on the door. He ignored it but the person kept knocking. "Go away, I'm very busy," Jack said angrily.He hated it when people interrupted him at times like this. Mr. Barrows quietly left and called Maya. "Miss Simmons, I'm very sorry but I couldn't meet Mr. Jack. He said that he was very busy and shouldn't be disturbed.""How can he say that?" Maya asked angrily. He knows that I'm stranded and I've been waiting for him for so long. Why would he do this after giving me his word?"Mr. Barrows didn't really understand w
Jack smiled and said, "that's my girl. Meanwhile, today's was a wonderful surprise. You are truly amazing my dear." Cindy laughed as they both got up and entered the bathroom together. After showering, they waited for their bodies to get dry since there were no towels and eventually put on their clothes.Cindy took out her makeup kit and began to redo her makeup while Jack searched around for his phone. When he couldn't find it, he asked, "Cindy have you seen my phone?" "Yes dear" Cindy replied innocently. "It was impeding our pleasures so I switched it off and put it inside one of your files. I hope it's not a problem?""Of course, it's not," Jack replied while smiling. "And how could it be when you just made my day? Oh no!""What is it, Jack?" "Well, Maya had called me to come to help her out with her flat tires. And she said her car tires got punctured in a dangerous part of town. I feel so bad right now. She might still be waiting for me."As Jack switched on his phone, Cindy fe
Cindy laughed as well. "I can see how delusional you are Maya but your little tricks can't come in between Jack and me. You claim that he is yours but it was so easy for me to stop Jack from coming to you today.All I had to do was just touch him a little bit and he forgot all about your existence. Yes, Maya, I switched off Jack's phone and hid it away. I deliberately prevented him from coming to you and I succeeded effortlessly. Do you know why? Because I am the one that Jack is in love with.I know for a fact that your supposedly punctured tires were all done by you. Everything was a ploy to get Jack to run to your side but, as long as I am around, your plans will not succeed.It is a good thing you have come out in the open to declare your interest in Jack, that way I do not have to second guess my actions toward you.""You are right Cindy," Maya replied. "Everything that happened today was deliberately planned by me. You may think that you achieved something big today by throwing
Maya squinted her eyes as she stared at Jack. She couldn't tell if he was complimenting or insulting her. But all the same, she said, "thanks Jack.""You're welcome" Jack replied. He had actually complimented her sincerely because she was someone who barely put a lot of effort into her looks. Although she wasn't in the same league as Cindy, she was beautiful nonetheless and had her own appeal so, it wasn't surprising that she already had a fiance.Just as Jack slowly began to move, Maya asked him to stop driving for a while because she had something to say to him. Jack decided that it was better that way because he also wanted to speak to her.Maya acted like she was hesitating and after a while said, "Cindy doesn't like the fact that we are friends and for reasons best known to her, she perceives me as a threat and believes that I want to snatch you away from her."Jack looked at Maya in surprise because this was the same thing he wanted to speak to her about. She continued."I alrea
Jack thought for a while and said, "okay Maya. After everything that you have gone through, you deserve this much. I will have to call Cindy and tell her to forget about coming with us."Maya smiled triumphantly before saying, "hold on Jack, I think you should text Cindy instead. If you call her now, Cindy would want to know why and from the look on your face, I can tell you are still upset with her despite my pleading.Listen, Cindy is a proud person, you know that. You do not need to tell her about this recording and the fact that you have discovered what she did. She might be too ashamed to face you and end up breaking up with you.I have observed the both of you and realized that she isn't that much in love with you. You are the one who loves her madly so she would not hesitate to break up with you if she wants to. Give me your phone let me text her because with the way you are angry, you might end up being rude to her and later suffer a heartbreak."Jack stared at Maya as she to
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
