Sara was shocked as she sat upright on her bed, her eyes wide open. She was filled with fear as she began to wonder what she did to Adrian to warrant such shouts from him early in the morning. She rolled her eyes as she rose from her bed. The knock came again with great impatience."I'm coming please. What's going on?" She inquiried as she moved to answer the door. She turned the doorknob at all and before she could realize what was going on, Adrian had found his way in and was looking all tensed. She was lost and quite confused."What happened? Why do you look so agitated?" She managed to ask in a cool and calm voice even when she felt so scared, scare of the unknown. She was still trying to imagine what the problem could be when his countenance changed. He flashed a wide grin in her direction, calming her nerves that Very instant. "I'd like you to come to work with me, please. It'd be so much fun," he had assured her with a pleading look. His face was curved in a way that kinda blac
Adrian stared at her with a bright Smile on his lips. He found her words funny and couldn't help but smile. He moved close to her, placing his hands on her cheek and without warning, he pulled it in the most gentle manner."Ouch!" She protested even though it didn't hurt one bit. All she Wanted was to hear the word sorry from Adrian which she eventually heard. He uttered an apology to her with his face looking so sober and all. When she realized that was going to do nothing but ruin the moment, she grinned and poked him in the belly. The smile returned like it never went."So I was asking what you do here in the office but you are here to reply me.""Oh that! Well well…" he paused, took a deep breath and then continued. "The company runs just like a normal organisation you know. It deals with various businesses and activities, some of which you are already aware of but then, that stops right at this floor we are Standing on.""Huh! What do you mean by it stops on this floor? I don't s
Sara's footsteps echoed softly in the dimly lit hallway as she made her way back to Adrian, her mind spinning with a whirlwind of thoughts prompted by Bryce's cryptic comment. The words hung in the air like a delicate web of intrigue, both relieving and unsettling her. What had Bryce truly meant by his enigmatic remark? Did he suspect something that she was unaware of? Sara pushed the questions aside, determined to focus on finding Adrian, who awaited her return with anxious anticipation, his presence a beacon of comfort in the midst of her swirling thoughts.As Sara entered the room, the warm glow of soft lighting illuminated Adrian's face, his eyes meeting hers with a mixture of curiosity and concern, searching for answers she wasn't yet ready to provide. He yearned to unravel every detail of her conversation with his father, to dissect the hidden meanings behind their words, but Sara remained guarded, offering little insight into their exchange. The curiosity burned within him, evi
After their not so uplifting meeting with Bryce, Adrian couldn't help but force himself to feel a surge of hope and determination right through his veins. He was still for a few moments as the aura of optimism enveloped him like a soft embrace as he accompanied Sara on their way to visit her beloved grandfather, whose health had been steadily improving. The sun, a radiant orb in the sky, cast its warm rays upon them, illuminating their path with a golden glow that made them feel blissful. Their steps, light with anticipation, seemed to dance to an invisible rhythm, harmonizing with the melody of their hopeful hearts.Arriving at the store, Adrian's eyes twinkled with enthusiasm as he entered a vibrant realm of colors and scents. He carefully selected a basket filled with an assortment of fresh fruits, each one a treasure waiting to be discovered. It was as if the universe had conspired to present him with the perfect array of nature's bounty. Adrian wanted to bring not just sustenance
Sara felt a pang of guilt wash through her as she fixed her eyes on her grandfather who was scribbling some things on a piece of paper. She felt uneasy with Herself for telling such lie to him but then she couldn't tell him the entire truth especially in his current state. She couldn't imagine herself confessing the truth before him and then his health condition worsens. She wouldn't even forgive Herself one bit and that alone gave her goosebumps. She shuddered as her mind continued to wander around."Are you alright, Sara?" She felt a tap on her hand, jolting her back to reality. She smiled at him while trying to recall what they were discussing before she went on a thought spree."Yes, I'm alright grandpa. Why do you seem to ask?""Nothing. I just noticed you didn't seem here. Your mind was extremely far away. Are you sure there's nothing bothering you?""Of course not. If there is, trust me to tell you about you. You shouldn't worry one bit about me. Instead, you should worry about
A few min later and Adrian was already in the sitting room, waiting for Sara who had promised to meet him five minutes from the last time he went to her room but then it's been fifteen minutes after and there's been no sign of her HR was starting to get impatient and began to pace round the room like one who was being pursued."Sara! What's holding you up again? I need to get this done as soon as possible!" He called out in a loud voice."A little more and I'd be there.""Just like you always say. You always say that but then you and up delaying more than you should…" he shot back at her and helped himself into your chair beside him. He tapped his hand Continuously against the arm of the chair until he could bear it no more. He rose to his feet again and was about going to meet her when she descended from the stairs with a bright smile laced to her brows."I'm sorry I left you waiting. I didn't mean to," she quickly apologized but Adrian didn't find himself getting upset as he should.
Sara was shocked and couldn't believe the entire scene that had just shown itself in front of her. She cringed as a feeling of pity for Adrian washed through her. If one had told her that it was sa difficult thing to lead a gang of Mafias, then she wouldn't have believed it. At this point, she didn't know what to think and neither did she know what to say. She cleared her throat and continued to steal glances at Adrian who had his head buried in some files. They had completed the meeting and were at his office where he was trying to complete something important."Are you alright? Is anything the problem?" He went on to ask when he noticed the way she continued to stare at him like he had something stuck in his eyes. She nodded vehemently in response to his question but it seemed he wasn't satisfied with that. He wanted to hear her speak."Are you sure you are alright? I can sense you want to say something. Go on and asy it. I am all ears," he went on to say burying his head back in hi
His hand Continued against her body with great expertise, touching every aspect of her body as gently as he could. It felt so good that Sara couldn't control the moan that was seeping through her mouth. She rolled her eyes with glee, clenching her hand into fists."You shouldn't be doing this here, Adrian?' she said with bated breath, pushing herself deeper into him such that trgr distance between their bodies was only a few centimetres. Their breathing filled the air and made a kind of music that only them could hear. It was beautiful and increased the tension between them."And where is it written that we cannot make love here?* He went on to ask with a wide grin Laced to his brows. His hands were still on her laps, moving as cunningly as it could. He was taking his time and was doing it so well. He wanted her to plead for him but Sara wasn't a soft meat as well."Come on, Adrian…" she tried to protest but he wouldn't let her as he quickly locked his mouth in hers, shutting her up a
