Scarlett and her mother were in the living room, the news was on but neither of them was watching it. They were each lost in their own thoughts, desperately needing a way out of the trouble they had found themselves in.Vivian felt heartbroken, still unable to believe that her husband cheated on her with his secretary. All these years, she had several relationships with other men, but she never knew the damage it caused to her family.Scarlett, on the other hand, couldn't stop thinking about her uncle's betrayal. She felt abandoned by the only father figure she had, the one person she had trusted for as long as she could remember. She never expected this from him, and she was still confused about his reasons for all of it.“Now arriving at the international art festival, it's handsome business tycoon, Adrian Heartfield!” The reporter on the television announced.Scarlett and Vivian looked up at the same time, eager to see Adrian on TV. Scarlett smiled when he got out of his car, wavin
The following night, Scarlett and Adrian met in a five-star restaurant as planned for their dinner date. Although Scarlett kept denying that she still had feelings for Adrian, she found herself getting all dolled up for him. “You look beautiful,” Adrian said softly as he sipped from the cocktail in front of him. “Oh.. thank you.” Scarlett blushed, pushing back her hair. She glanced at him and noticed his intense stare. It only made her cheeks burn, she had missed that look in his eyes, the look of sheer passion and devotion. The look that always made her feel warm and safe, she couldn't help the lump that formed in her throat but she swallowed it and blinked her sadness away.“I still remember the first time we met, your unwavering desire to get me to dump your mother.” Adrian chuckled and Scarlett smiled. She could remember it vividly.“Don't remind me of how much of a child I used to be.” She rolled her eyes. The waitress came with their orders and placed their different foods on
Adrian was sitting in his study, going through his emails and sorting out orders when the door opened and Lydia walked in. She wore a bright smile as she clutched the tray containing Adrian's food in her hands. Adrian lifted his head to take a glance at who had entered his study only to discover that it was Lydia and what caught his attention more was the way she was dressed. She was wearing lingerie and a black, flared gown that stopped right below her butt. Her ass cheeks could easily be seen, and her cleavage exposed.“I brought your food, Adrian.” She put the tray down on his desk and then slowly walked over to him, her finger lingering on his arm and moving all the way to his chest. She stood behind him and lowered her head to kiss his ear, her hand sensually rubbing his chest and heavy arms. “You can eat me after eating your meal..” she whispered and bit his ear gently. Adrian sighed and shrugged her off, not showing any signs of arousal. This annoyed Lydia, but she wasn't g
Everyone in the conference room was amazed and flabbergasted at Richard's confession. Richard was the company's trustee, a person who everyone in the firm looked up to. Hearing him say that, shattered a lot of hearts, especially Scarlett's.“Why did you do this? Are you happier!?” Scarlett scolded, her eyes red with tears and anger. Richard scoffed.“He thought he was some god! Like he was the king of the world and could do whatever he wanted. Gwen came to me, she wanted me! All I did was comply and my brother, your father thought he could just fire me and throw me to the streets!” Richard spat out, filled with rage as he recalled what happened years ago.“After he sent Gwen away with my child in her womb, I started hatching a plan to secretly take over everything he owns. Everything was going well, we were about to succeed after so many years!” He growled, biting his lip in spite. He had no regrets, neither did he seem remorseful of his actions. Gwen bowed her head in shame, sitting
Six months later…Scarlett walked into the room and met Richard's gaze. He hadn't changed a bit— it's just been six months, she didn't know why she was expecting him to change. She sat down in front of him and they were both silent for a few minutes.“I heard you were sick.” She broke the silence, finding it hard to look at his face, considering everything he had done.“I don't need you to care, Scarlett.” Richard scoffed, also avoiding eye contact. Scarlett chuckled, “My question is not out of care, it's simply because I want to be sure that you're suffering in here, that's all you deserve.” “Just tell me why you're here.” Richard sounded pissed off. Scarlett could not deny the fact that she was still very hurt by her uncle's betrayal, the shock and the dark paint of it all were plastered on her heart and she couldn't get over it. It pained her that he was acting so nonchalant, he was indeed a great actor. He spent years pretending to care about it, he was indeed callous.“To see
Scarlett and Lily were sitting on her broad canopy bed, putting on some make-up, and talking about the craziness of high school life. Lily had a hand over her mouth as she cackled at something funny Scarlett had said.“Fuck off, you're such a nut job, I’m not even going to lie.” She said and deep cackled again. She had a light moisturizer on her face. And with a part of the same face, she took a quiet view of Scarlett's room. Silently marveling at the realms of space, the warm wood tones, the wall-to-wall burgundy, and the carpeting that was like a cushion to the feet, everything was spick-and-span."I just wish we both got entry into the same college.""For real?" Scarlet asked as she began to rub her foundation on her face."Yeah, don't you?" Lily asked rhetorically."I mean, it would be an absolute pleasure to spend my college years in this exquisite apartment as opposed to some pitiful-looking condominium."Scarlett's smile was controlled as she said, “Of course, I'm missing you a
Scarlett rolled on her bed in her nightgown from side to side, unable to sleep for many long minutes. The face of the guy at the club was still vivid in her mind. She couldn't think of anything else except his handsome face and broad chest with those piercing fingers of his that explored her core."Dammit, I should have asked for his number at least," she muttered, biting her lower lip.When she finally started to doze off around 3 in the morning, she had a wet dream of the guy at the club with his hands wrapped around her and pounding her ass from behind. Her hand found its way into her pants, and she started fingering herself, moaning softly from her sleep, when someone knocked on her door, immediately waking her."Madam Scarlett.” The voice called. It was Charlotte, one of their maids at home."Yes, Charlotte, what is it?” She asked in a half-drowsy voice, her hand still in her pants, rubbing herself.“Madam, your mother is around; she's asking for your presence in the sitting room
Adrian’s chest and arms were wreathed with maps of sweat as he lay entwined, and on top of Vivian's naked body, he bit her breasts with his lip. As he increased the pace of his thrusts, her moans got louder and louder."Oh Adrian, oh baby, don't stop, don't stop, oh my God, I'm going to cum...fuck ah ah ah... I'm coming. I'm coming!”She was screaming until he began to feel her body vibrate beneath him, he felt the slimy, liquid sensation as she released her juices on the bed, he released too, and let out a liberating gasp.It was her third orgasm and his second; they both climaxed together, holding each other in this second round of tonight's sex. But when he lifted his head, he saw the image of Scarlett, Vivian’s Daughter, just behind the slightly opened bedroom door, peeping with her hand inside her pants. They locked eyes, which made her turn and leave in a rush. He rolled away from the top. Vivian had a confused look on his face. She had not noticed what had just happened; she wa
