2024-10-29 19:42:56Carina flashed charming smiles at her daughter. Agnes had spoken to her and Lucinda about the relationship going on between kylie and Leo and she wasn't all so happy about it. Why would they be sleeping in different rooms? How would they bond if they're so apart despite being in the same house.
Lucinda had been against her coming to the house saying it was too early to interfere but she would not budge. She won't let her daughter let a good man like Leo slip off her finger like that. She'll.. She paused in her thinking as she noticed the baby in Kylie's arms.
She had a puzzled look on her face. "Is that a baby?" She asked with a bit of shock etched on her forehead.
Oh,she didn't know. Then why is she here?Kylie thought. She had at first wondered if Leo told her about wanting to adopt an abandoned baby and she had come running to dissuade her from the idea.
She shrugged. "Yes. This is Sheila." She said walking towards her mother.

Satisfied to see her sleeping peacefully,she was about to lay down on the bed when she got a text from Leo.'Come to my room now!' He said in a matter of urgency.Kylie frowned at the message and then curious to know what he wanted,she left to his room.Taking the second stairs that led to the elevator,she walked into it and the elevator took her to the last door. His room.The elevator led directly inside his room. There was no need to make use of the front door.She walked into the room and found him standing at the front door."Kylie,your mom insisted on seeing you despite the fact that I told her you were in the shower." He said with his tone underlying that mother was pressuring him.

Her eyes locked with his and she knew exactly not what to do. She's been close to him several times but not in this way. Not with him bare chest and naked to his waist.Not with him looking all charming and irresistible with the water dripping from his hair and making them curls.She swallowed."The baby is still in here." He said,his lips quirking with a smile."Uh?" She asked speechlessly. His smile spread wider. He was glad to have such effect on her. He was glad to see her tongue tied."You're leaving without the baby." He said to her, peering into her eyes. Into her soul."Oh!" She exclaimed softly. Why was she so fluttered? She wondered at herself.She pulled away from his body and went to pick up Sheila.She hastened past him and into the elevator and she heard a chuckle from him. Was he doing this on purpose? She wondered. If he was,then how dare he?! She wanted to rant but instead kept her cool as the elevator to

"If you ever dare to lay your hands on her again, you'll regret it." He said and flung away the man's hand. Kylie stood behind him and held his arm sighing in relief that he can at the right time. "And who are you to tell us what to do?" Another man questioned. Leo pulled Kylie from behind him and held her. "Her husband." He said without hesitation. Kylie looked up at him. Her eyes shiny with thoughts as her heart raced. What was going on in his mind? For the first time,he called himself her husband without sarcasm or arrogance.

He was all nice and lovely especially in the presence of her mother.Yeah right. That was the reason he was nice.

The D-Day finally arrived. The London's Broadway's high fashion and for the first time,Kylie was nervous about it. There was a good competitor on the block, Roselle. She was quite a cheat but yet still good."You should take in deep breaths." Leo said behind her as she stared at herself in the vanity mirror."I am Leo. Can't you see I am?" She retorted taking in deep breaths.He went behind her and unclasped her necklace and she gasped. "What was that for?" She asked him.He didn't respond to her,instead he took the necklace from her neck and picked up another from her collection."For a high fashionista,you sure don't know how to blend your dresses with your necklaces." He said as he clipped the necklace.Kylie stared at herself in the mirror and she accepted his choice was better than hers."So what are you now? A fashion boy?" She asked raising a brow.He chuckled.

"KYLIE SHELL PUBLIC DISPLAY FOR HER HUSBAND AT THE BROADWAY." And there was a picture of Kylie blowing him a kiss and also kissing his cheek. The kissing of his cheek he was well aware of but the latter he was not. Staring at the picture,he wondered if she did it for the media just as usual or not. Her expression was saying otherwise. She looked like she meant it but he could not say. She was a pro at acting sweet. He put the paper aside and the next one showed him holding Kylie,he skipped it not wanting to know what details were written there but the next one he could not ignore as the headline boldly wrote, "A BABY SO SOON?"

She was pushed roughly into a shabby cabin and she gasped when she stumbled, almost falling to the ground.A calloused hand gripped her arm and got her seated on the ground and began tying her up. He tied her hands behind her back and tied her legs together to prevent her from escaping.She whimpered as his fingers bruised her with each roping around her wrists."What do you want from me?" She finally asked finding her voice. "Is it money? Let me go and I'll give you all of it." She said to him.He chuckled. "That would have been a good bargain but someone else is not interested in your money." He said."Who is that person please? What does he want from me?" She asked."You're find out soon."
