"Are we going home now?" Daniella said to Desmond when she approached him."Home? When I've not spoken with my mother?" Desmond replied."I thought you are angry at them." She said, looking up at him."I may be angry but that doesn't mean I will leave without talking with my mom.""But she's not awake.""I know. I will wait till he wakes up." Daniella left, leaving Desmond in the hospital. Desmond waited till evening but she didn't wake up. He gave Bella some cash and credited her account."When mother wakes up, tell her that I came. Take good care of her." Desmond said before leaving....Desmond walked into the room and dropped the car key onto the counter, then proceed to remove his cloths. As he reached for the hem of his shirt, he heard Daniella's voice behind him."So honey, when are we going to fix our wedding. You know, it's the only thing remaining for us to be officially together." "Wedding?" Desmond asked and turned to her. "How will you be taking about wedding when my
"She never talk about wedding. Why did she suddenly bring it up and even wants it urgently?" Desmond asked himself when Daniella left. His mind was telling him she was up to something but he couldn't tell her exact motive. They were together because of his family and her pregnancy, and things have never been same ever since Anabel left.Though he believed with time, he will start loving Daniella, but her recent character was not something he can just ignore. She blocked her sister and his mother in his phone. And why would she talking about wedding when the coast was not clear enough. He was loosing contracts, coupled with the fact that his mother was sick. ...At night when they got ready for bed, Desmond couldn't help but feel a sense of frustration. He had been looking forward to a romantic evening with Daniella, but now it seemed like that was not going to happen.As they lay in bed, Desmond reached out to Daniella, hoping to rekindle the spark that had been missing that evenin
Desmond couldn't believe he was about to sleep without sex. He have never been in that situation. He was angry but he couldn't do anything. He don't want to force her and he can't possibly fix the wedding because she was denying him her body.Daniella was expecting him to dance to her tune but he turned, facing his back at her. Daniella was disappointed. She thought he will fix the wedding date if she denied him sex but it failed.Desmond didn't say anything again, leaving Daniella unsettled. She wanted to change her mind and resolve with Desmond but she couldn't. At this point, she needed to maintain her sneeze.Both slept off afterwards. The next day, Desmond woke up and got prepared. He didn't even talked to her. As he was about to leave, He heard Daniella's voice from the back, "You are leaving without even talking to me?""Why will I talk to you? Can you let me be? Can you?""Is it about last night? I....I'm sorry. I....I over reacted and I'm sorry.""I don't have time for you n
"I'm not a public food. I'm reserved for rich men like you. I'm sure I'm more endowed than the woman in your house. Men like you eat fresh and not bones.""I'm still not interested.""You don't know what you are about to miss.""I'm not missing anything. I have a pregnant woman in my house. You want me to cheat on her? Will it be fair? Remember she's a woman like you." Desmond said, trying to Play emotional counter strategy."It's not a big deal. Men cheats on their pregnant wife. I once had sex with a man who's wife was about to deliver. He was speaking with her on the phone while I was busy riding him. So you won't be the first.""And you think it's normal? They probably don't love their wife. I won't try that.""I can see you are not a real man. Real men cheats on their wife. They have fun with multiple women, something they won't get from their wives. I will leave you and wait for real men. Your loss." She said and stood up, then saunter off, swaying her immaculate ass from side t
"Well, you are bold. I will give you that. But I'm not the type of man you think I am. I will appreciate if you leave my sight." Desmond said and continued with his drink."Stop talking as if you often gets a hot woman like me chatting you up." She said and Desmond chuckled. He couldn't tell if she was joking or if she actually thought she was something special."As old as you are, you are still feeling yourself as if you are anything special. I think you have the wrong idea about who you are talking with.""No, you are the one who is mistaken. All I know is that at the end, you and me will be leaving together. We are going to know each other very well. I mean..,.very well. And by that. I mean we are going to my place, get naked and have sex, lots of it.""I... I... what?" Desmond stammered, shaking his head. He was lost of words. He was baffled. Was she joking or what? Was she pranking him? How could an old woman like her presume that a handsome rich guy like him would cheat on his
(Few Days Later. In a Conference meeting)As Anabel was giving her Speech, Sylvester, a medium profile business man was sitting at the the back of the auditorium, with his arms crossed. The Conference had drawn in some of the most brilliant minds from the state and Anabel was one of them. His eyes was fixed on the stage, watching Anabel's speech. She was taking the podium with a confident stride. Sylvester found himself captivated with her excellent command in speech. Not just by her ideas, but by her very presence. There was a certain spark in her, an undeniable energy that commands attention. Ever since she witnessed Anabel's action on Zacklid group launching day, he had been looking forward to meet her, which was the main reason he came to the conference meeting. He had made research about her and had gotten all the information he needed. HER REAL IDENTITY. Thanks to his boys that worked it out without wasting time.When the event came to an end, Sylvester made his way to the fro
"I don't think it's necessary. If you are here to talk about love, then we have to call it a day." Anabel said. "It's okay. But can we be friends? I will like to be a friend. We can get to work in future. Like collaboration or something like that." Sylvester said and Anabel stared at him. He looked rich and smart, qualified to have her personal number. "I will give you my number, but don't disturb me. I'm a busy person." Anabel said and gave him her number. Sylvester smiled, he have taken a step to get Anabel. He knew he won't fail. Days passed and he began to send love messages. Anabel would read and ignore. She didn't want to give him any chance. . . A week later, Anabel's father handed one of his company to her. "You will become the acting CEO. If you survive, you will have the company." It was an automobile company. An electric car which was working with an advanced driver's assistant system, just like Zacklid group. She was happy and ready to move it to another level.
Anabel smiled, feeling a sense of relief wash over her. "Thank you, Sylvester. I really appreciate it." Twenty minutes later, a tall, lanky guy with a messy beard and a mop of curly hair walked into Anabel's office. He was dressed in a pair of ripped jeans and a faded t-shirt, and he looked like he had just rolled out of bed. "Hey, sorry I'm late," he said, extending a hand to Anabel. "I'm Max." Anabel shook his hand, trying not to stare at his disheveled appearance. He doesn't look like a professional. He looked like an indoor hacker who couldn't bag a job. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Max. Thank you for coming." Max nodded and turned to Sylvester. "What is the problem?" "Mr. Jenkins will tell you everything." Sylvester said and Jenkins explained everything to him. When Jenkins finished, Max nodded. "I think I can resolve it. Can you show me the system?" Mr. Jenkins led Max to the server room, and Anabel followed, curious to see what Max would do. For the next few thirty minutes, M
As they were talking, the doorbell rang. Leonard knew who were knocking and went to open the door for them. When he opened the door, it was five of his friends as he expected. "Happy birthday, Leonard!" his friends cheered as they entered, carrying gifts and bottles of champagne. The room was quickly filled with more friends. They settled in, ready to celebrate with him. Daniella played the perfect hostess, ensuring that everyone had a drink and felt comfortable even though she was pregnant. They didn't waste time in lightening the cake and wishing him well when he brew it. Soon, the party kicked into high gear and Leonard's friends took turns sharing funny stories and toasting to his health and happiness. After a few rounds of drinks, someone suggested playing a game to lighten things up. "How about we play 'Never Have I Ever'?" One of Leonard's friends suggested with a mischievous grin on his face. The group agreed, and they gathered in a circle, each person holding a drink. Th
Hello dear readers, Sorry about the previous chapter. It was a mistake and I have changed it to the right chapter. It's going to be approved soon. I'm so sorry....The next day, Daniella woke up before Desmond and prepared breakfast for him. She kept her demeanor calm, masking the excitement that was bubbling in her heart.Desmond got prepared and wore his suit. He was surprised when Daniella called him for his breakfast. He didn't say anything about it but hoped it would continue that way.When Desmond finished his breakfast, he kissed Daniella on her forehead. "Be very careful when you get there. Don't stay late. I want you to come back on time. See you later in the evening." "It's alright." Daniella replied and Desmond grabbed his office box and made his way out to the entrance door. "Have a great day at work." Daniella said from behind, but deep down, she knew she wasn't even going to come late, she would sleep over and enjoy her night with Leonard.Just as Daniella heard his
Later that day, when afternoon had come, Vicky waddled to the room of the couple and knocked. Without waiting for a response to come, she pushed the door open. Mike and Jennifer had just finished another round. While Jennifer was still lying down from the heavy bang she had gotten from Mike, the man stood gallantly with a towel wrapped around his waist. He had just finished having his bath. Vicky pushed the door open at the same moment he unwrapped the towelfrom his waist. “Good mor—” She was going to greet them. But the rest of her words got stuck in her mouth. She was stunned to see the build-up of Mike's muscles— thick biceps, broad and muscular chests, thick abs, muscular thighs and firm legs. Vicky always knew that he was gallant. But then, she never expected him to look so good. All she could find herself thinking of was Mike pressing his muscular body into hers. “Vicky?” Jennifer called her sister while sitting up and grabbing the bedspread tightly.Vicky was suddenly broug
"I know it sounds like a lot of money, but it's a special occasion, and I want to make it memorable for her. Besides, I've been meaning to get some new clothes for a while now.""You went for shopping just few days ego and here you are, asking for another money. Not even a small amount. Fifty thousand dollars. Do you want to make me broke?""Fifty thousand dollars will not make you broke. I need this." "Don't you have conscience?""I have conscience. I understand the situation and that is why I didn't mention two hundred thousand dollars. I just want to manage the fifty thousand dollars." Daniella said."Manage fifty thousand dollars? I can see how ungrateful you are. Were you spending like this before we met?""And what is wrong in spending on a woman who is carrying your child? I want to dress fine because of you. I represent you. And stop talking as if I'm not making any effort for our well being.""If you care, you won't be talking about this. It's not even your birthday. It's yo
The next day, Desmond had came back from work and was flipping through the channels on TV when Daniella, who was busy on with her phone suddenly spoke up."Honey, I need to talk to you about something important," Daniella said and Desmond glanced up from the remote control, his brow furrowing slightly. "What is that?""My close friend, Julie, is hosting a birthday party tomorrow, and she really wants me to be there." Daniella explained. "It's going to be a big celebration, and I haven't seen her for a while." She finished and Desmond's expression darkened. "Did you accept the invitation?""I just told you that she's my close friend. Why won't i accept the invitation." Daniella replied."You know you are pregnant right?" Desmond asked."Yeah, I'm aware. Any problem with that?" Daniella asked."I don't expect this question from you. There are things you need to avoid as a pregnant woman and party is one of it. You need to take care of yourself and the baby. Going to a party might not be
"My mom is different and she's coming, Desmond.""I says what happens in this house. I don't want to see your mom in this house. You are free to visit her but she's not coming here." Desmond insist."I can see you don't love me anymore. You are changing. What have I done wrong?" "You did nothing wrong. I'm doing what is best for us. I kicked my mother and sister out. I can never let your mom in." He finished and entered the bathroom."My mom is coming. Whether you like it or not. Unless you don't want me again." Daniella shouted and Desmond ignored her. He need to take his bath and rest......The next day, Daniella was watching a sports channel when her phone rang. She checked and it was Leonard, her boyfriend . She smiled and picked the call, then put it in loud speaker. Desmond was not around, so she was free and relaxed."Hello babe, How are you doing?" Daniella greeted as she relaxed her back on the couch."I'm fine love. I've missed you so much." Leonard said and Daniella s
"I bagged the contract for you, Desmond." Daniella began. "She was never the one. She went to the back through her ways and did the dirty job. She can do anything just to get back to you. She's jealous and she is fighting you. I don't know why you have not acted on it. If you keep quite, she will do more." "You know what? Let's stop talking about this. Just avoid her please." Desmond said and turned to enter the bathroom. "Before I forget, I want to let you know that my mother will be coming to stay with us for a while." He heard Daniella spoke from his back and stopped, then turned in confusion. "Is like I didn't hear you well, what did you say?" Desmond asked. "You heard me, Desmond. I said my mom Will be coming over to stay with us for a while." Daniella repeated. "I can't believe you are the one saying this." Desmond shook his head. "Why are you saying so? I'm talking about my mother." "Who did you discussed that with?" Desmond asked. "I'm telling you now." "Just l
Desmond was in his office when his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw an unfamiliar number. He wanted to ignore the call but changed his mind immediately and answered the call.“Hello, Who is this?" He asked.“Good afternoon, Mr. Desmond. This is Clara from Elegance Boutique. I’m calling regarding an incident involving your partner, Miss Daniella.”Desmond’s heart skipped a beat. “What happened?”“Daniella was caught on our CCTV footage placing an earring into another a customer’s handbag yesterday afternoon. The customer, Anabel, was then accused of stealing.”"Are you sure about this? There must be a mistake.” somewhere." Desmond said.“I’m afraid, Mr. Desmond, the evidence is clear. We reviewed the footage multiple times. It was clear that your partner intentionally placed the earring in the costumer's bag.”"I'm so sorry about that. I hope it didn’t spoil anything. Is Anabel alright?” He asked, deeply concerned.“She was understandably upset, but after reviewing the
"I want you to come back today. It's important." The dad said."What is that? I'm planning to come back tomorrow." Stacey answered."No, you need to come now. Tomorrow will be late. Start coming now." The dad replied."Okay dad, I will be on my way." She said and hang up"My dad said i should come back home today." Stacey said to Anabel."It's alright. You have taken bath already from the swimming.

I'm protecting you. I just don't want you to get pregnant for my brother. Not out of wedlock.""What do you mean?"
