"You will stay here" he said, taking the paper from her after signing it. She knew she would have to, since they were legally married. But not now. She couldn't ignore the pain in her head anymore.

His palm came down to her forehead. His hand felt so cold.

"You have a fever. What were you doing in the rain" Her tongue stole out to wet her dry lips. Edward shut his eyes. This girl! She had no idea of the effect she had on him. He took in a deep breath to calm himself down. He wasn't the type to lose control. She told him everything. It had his blood boiling as he wished he could wring their necks. He went to get some painkillers and water.

"Here" he stretched it out to her. She didn't take it, only stared at nothing in particular.

"Yesterday was mum's memorial, and he doesn't even remember. Sometimes, I really wonder if I am his daughter" she turned to Edward. "He doesn't treat me like one"

"Take this first. You can talk later" he placed the pills in her palm and she finally took it,

    His expression became more horrible as seconds passed, like he could not believe it. Of course, he couldn't."Screwing your girlfriend's sister. The nerve, huh?""Look, I can explain" his haughty attitude had vanished. She wore a lopsided smile."There's no need for that. Have a fantastic day" He tried to grab it, but she dodged, hurrying out of the house, leaving Jayden as white as a sheet. "Hello guys" she felt like a massive burden had been lifted off her shoulder as she entered her studio. Their replies were a little off, but she shrugged it off. She was in her office when she noticed the weird looks they were giving her. Dana especially. She stole glances at her, quickly looking away when she raised her head. Lily sighed and stood up. She walked towards Dana's table, her arms crossed."Out with it" she said sternly as Dana became embarrassed. "Nothing, boss" "You have been staring at me for a while now, so speak your mind. Or have I suddenly grown two horns" "Well… It's just

    Marie was not satisfied at all when her dad told her it was just for a little time. She hated the idea of going back to her former room."What the hell happened exactly?" She pressed, almost at the point of tears."You will know later" During dinner, Silvia and Rupert looked solemn, while Marie secretly glared daggers at Lily. What she had for Lily was not dislike anymore, but hatred. But Lily didn't care. She could go to hell.Rupert cleared his throat, his eyes on Lily."You didn't tell me you were dating someone else?" She raised a brow, feigning ignorance. "What do you mean, Dad?" "Do you know Edward Beau?" Her eyes went up for a moment, her index finger tapping her chin, like she wanted to remember who that was. "Oh, yes. I know him. Why do you ask?""He said you are his girlfriend" He had decided not to leave the house that day, and stayed home with his wife. He was overexcited when he saw the last person he ever imagined he would see on his doorstep. He already deviced diff

    She stared at the thick piece of paper in her hand with mixed feelings. Her marriage certificate. The testament that she had become one with this man she had met only about a week ago. "Anything wrong?" He asked, worried about her silence. "No… I just don't believe I am married. We just met" she pointed out. "Are you scared?""Scared? About what? Why should I be?""Scared to be with me""No. I am not. I just don't believe it" He nodded."Of course. You married the most powerful man in the country, it will definitely be surreal" he said seriously. She shook her head. This man. He was a narcissist!"About the consummation......" She quickly placed her forefinger on his lips to keep him quiet. She quickly withdrew it when she realized what she did."We can't do that now. I have a lot of things to put in place, and having kids is not one of them…. for now" she added. His face was on the wall, silent. She knew it didn't sit well with him, but what could she do? Silvia and her daughter w

    "Take a guess, guys" Lily said as she entered the studio, excitement apparent in her voice."Uh… I am not so good at guessing" Dana said."Me neither" Brick seconded."Come on. Just guess. It is good news" "Uhm…. You are pregnant?" Dana said."What! What are you saying?" Dana shrugged. "You are married, so it isn't a crime" she said innocently. Lily flushed a little."No, that is not it. I'll just say it" she paused. " WE ARE MOVING!" it took a while for the words to register. Dana screamed at the top of her lungs, scrambling out of her chair and running to Lily."Is…. Is it true? We are really moving?" Lily nodded, an endear smile on her lips. "OMG! I can't believe this. Can we see it?""Sure. But after closing hours, we could go check it out together" she already did and loved it. But there was no harm in letting her team members see it too. She headed to her office to call the real estate agent who found the place, so she could wire the money to his account. "Can you send your

    "Hell no!" She almost screamed. She calmed down when she received weird looks from the servants. "That wasn't what I meant""Oh. So, what do you mean?" "I don't want you to give it to him. Deny him entry anytime he comes to your company" He nodded. "Alright" She was surprised. He agreed just like that, without even asking her the reason? He would probably have a bad view of her. A bad daughter."You wouldn't ask me why?" "There is no need for that. I will do anything you say"Badum! Badum! Badum! Her heart beat sped up. He always made her blush effortlessly. She buried her face in her food."Here" she looked up to see him extending a green folder to her."What is this?" She asked, accepting the item."Check it" she gingerly opened the file. Her eyes widened, and her mouth opened in surprise."You actually got me shares in a short timeframe. Oh my God," her eyes went back to the document. It was 8%. She had 8% shares of Portico now. She could hardly believe it."Is that enough? I co

    Rupert's brows were drawn together. "Jayden? Your sister's boyfriend" "They already broke up" she hated the way everyone called him that."You cannot date him" he said with a tone of finality. He cared less when Lily dated him. She wasn't useful anyway. But Marie. He was going to look for the best man for her."Why?" She whined. His expression softened."He doesn't fit you. Don't worry. I will find someone else who fits our class" "No dad. I love Jayden""I said no!" He thundered and Marie flinched."I'm pregnant for him""What! You....." His face turned red from anger. "Jayden isn't bad. His company is promising and will bloom with just a little help. Please, give him a chance, dad""Get out!" He said. She unhappily stood up and left. She met her mother waiting for her. "What happened between you and your father?" She shrugged. "He didn't approve my relationship""You have a boyfriend?" Silvia asked. "Yes""Who is it?""Jayden""Jayden? The same Jayden" "Yes mum""Why didn't

    She raised her chin. "Why can't I be here?" Rupert tried to tamp down his anger."Go back home. This isn't child's play" She chuckled. "This is a shareholders meeting, am I right? Then I have every right to be here...... because I am also a shareholder" she watched her father's fury increase by the minute. The shareholders also watched the drama between the duo."You are talking nonsense. Leave now when I'm being nice" she almost rolled her eyes. When was he ever nice? She reached into her bag, round the table to where he was seated, and dropped a folder before him. "Take a look, president Savage" she emphasized on president. He violently opened the folder. His expression became extremely awful. She now owned 8% of the company's shares? He was about to stand up to hit her when he remembered that people were present. He could not suppress his anger. "What do you mean by this?" Lily tilted her head. "I don't understand you. It's mum's company and it's only natural to be here" She sm

    Marie was starting to feel embarrassed. Why wasn't he kissing her? Just when she decided she would do it herself, he leaned forward and gave her a light peck on her lips. They eventually proceeded to the reception. "Finally" Lily groaned. Her eyes lit up at the large array of food. She gulped. "This is the only good thing about this party" Edward laughed. He paused when he saw Rupert, Jayden, and Marie walking towards them. Lily noticed too. "Mr Beau" he stretched out his hands. Edward didn't take it. He awkwardly retreated. Lily resisted the urge to laugh. "Lily, why did you not tell us Mr Beau was coming?" "I told her not to" Edward replied emotionlessly. Rupert was speechless and embarrassed. Lily did not feel bad about it. She loved the way he put them in their places. She looked at the newly wedded couple and took a glass from a waiter. She walked up to Marie. "Congratulations. I wish you happiness in your marriage" she clinked her glass against Marie's. "And you too, broth

    "I..... I need to use the bathroom" she tried to leave, but Edward held her back, an evil smile on his lips. "Trying to run away?" "What are you talking about? I'm not—" The rest of her words were swallowed by a kiss. She tried to resist at first, but gave it when she could no longer stand the pleasure. It was just a kiss and her panties were wet already. After a few more kisses, he took off his robe and Lily's, and went down to business. With one deep thrust, Edward entered her. Lily gaped. Her head was spinning, and she felt so hot as he thrust deep into her. Her nipples had become hard, and they stared at him, calling him. She moved her hips, meeting and welcoming his thrusts. Her fingers scratched his back, leaving marks on him. Her insides clenched him greedily, and she could feel him throbbing inside her. He growled, licking and kissing her earlobes. He held her buttocks and raised it a little, slowly he took out his cock, then slid in again, rubbing his balls against her. He

    She had tried all she could to remember what happened last night. Nothing came. She had no idea how she returned home.However, everything came rushing back when she arrived at the studio's entrance. She...... she had confessed to him! Her heart thumped desperately. She wanted to run back home. How should she face him? She hated herself for getting drunk. To make matters worse, Brick arrived at that exact time. She prayed the ground would open and swallow her up. She refused to meet his eyes. "Good morning" he greeted with a smile. She replied, her face beet red from embarrassment. They entered the studio together. She willed herself to gather the courage to speak to him, but before she could say a word, Brick beat her to it."About last night" she gulped. He sighed, not knowing how to proceed. "You are a very beautiful woman, Dana. You deserve someone who will treat you like a queen. I appreciate your feelings towards me, but I'm sorry, I cannot reciprocate it. I don't view you in

    He was Rafe Moore, the president of Moore industries. He had made quite a name for himself in the business world. He saw Marie during one of the balls she had attended with her husband, and became immediately interested in her.He tried talking to her back then, but there were too many people around, and she clung to her husband like a leech, going nowhere else. His opportunity came when he heard Jayden's business was falling. He got her number through some dirty means and texted her. He had thought she was uninterested when he didn't receive her answer, and was overjoyed when she replied. He was finally alone with her. She shifted a little when he sat beside her. "Can you please put on some clothes" she was uncomfortable sitting beside his naked body. He wasn't far like most wealthy men, but he was too this, that he looked like he could break any moment."How do you want to help me?" She asked after he wore a bathrobe."Don't worry about that. Just know that I can make your husband'

    He laughed. She looked cute when angry. He drained the water, replacing it with a fresh one. She refused to look at him. He slowly pulled out, and she closed her eyes, suppressing a moan. Edward saw this, and was glad she didn't. If she had, he couldn't guarantee he would not take her right there and then. He wiped her body and carried her into the room. She crossed her arms, still angry. "What would you like to eat?" He asked. She huffed, and turned to him, ready to give him a dressing down, but because she was on the bed, and he was standing, the sight of his cock greeted her. She was short of words and swallowed. Her face and neck turned red. He laughed."Don't tell me you want to eat this?" He pointed at his member. She became redder than a tomato. "It's yours to eat anytime, any day""You… are spouting nonsense! Put on some clothes, and stop going around naked""You don't like it this way?" He teased further. She glared at him. He walked to his closet and wore a black T-shirt.

    She groaned angrily when he withdrew. He took off his dress, leaving him in only his briefs. He sat on the bed. She could make out the outline of his penis. His bulge was throbbing painfully and needed a release. He pulled her soft body against his strong one, tearing the remaining pieces of clothes on her body. His hard cock poked her entrance, and she rocked her lower part against him. Edward stifled the groan that was bubbling at the back of his throat. Her breasts were staring at him. She was a walking temptation. He stopped her. Lily let out a cry."Do you want this?" "Yes! Please give me more" she said with a quivering voice."Tell me. Say it!" He squeezed her buttocks.He raised his thigh a little, letting his crotch rub her entrance."Hnng! I want it! I want you, Edward" she was losing her mind. He finally released her, and she greedily rubbed herself against him. Lily was on the verge of fainting from pleasure."Hmm! Aahhh!" her entrance twitched. She threw her head back, a

    She was on her way to Edward's mansion, feeling both anger and sadness at the same time. On the next seat was the folder she had found. She dialed his number."Lily?" He sounded surprised she was calling at this hour. It was almost midnight. "I am outside your house. Can you open the door?" She heard the squeaking of a chair."I'll be right there" She heard a click in the door, and his handsome face appeared. His face immediately brought inexplicable relief, at the same time the feeling she had been locking in for a long time. She burst into tears, rushing into his arms. He held her, his heart in his throat. Did something go wrong at her house? He had extremely unsatisfied when he received her message earlier, now what brought her here? She wasn't physically hurt, so he decided not to speak. She kept crying. He said nothing, only patting her back. She stepped back from his arms, sniffing. He led her to a sofa. "Do you feel better now?" She nodded, trying to force a genuine smile b

    It was finally the day to submit the report. Lily could not contain her excitement. She sent a text message to Edward. when she arrived at the Savage mansion's entrance, "I'll be at my house today"She heard chatters between two people. It immediately stopped when they saw her. They didn't bother to hide the disgust on their faces. Jayden wasn't back yet, so they were still feeling smug, not knowing what was in store for them. She went up to her room, only returning when a servant informed her that dinner was served. They were all seated when she arrived. Jayden included. He looked as if he had lost twenty years of life. She laughed inwardly. This was just the beginning."So, now you remember you have a home" her father said. "Do you have a problem with that?" She asked dully. Rupert inhaled sharply. He seemed like he wanted to hit her but stopped. She had someone powerful backing her up. Someone he could not afford to offend. "Let's eat"Her eyes went to Jayden. Only someone who s

    "Isn't that the president of the new gaming company? It looks like him" People were beginning to gather around them, murmuring. He could not spend another minute here, or else, he was screwed. His company was getting popular, but it was still a bit unstable. A little scandal could have it crashing down. He could not risk that. He glared daggers at Lily, who looked at him challengingly, before storming off. She also went back to her car without getting anything. She wasn't in the mood to shop anymore. Behind the wall, not too far from them, a certain man who had been watching them also left. Marie had been discharged from the hospital and was at the Savage mansion, recuperating. She sat before the mirror, combing her hair, as she smiled devilishly. Jayden has been treating her well recently. Her plan to make him hate Lily was working. When she thought of Lily, she naturally remembered her wealthy boyfriend. Her smile disappeared. Jealousy and anger bubbled up inside her. She had taken

    Right at that moment, his constraint, and rationale flew out the door. He ardently responded as they both fought for control. Edward pulled her closer against him, and she felt his growing erection."Mmm….” He murmured as his tongue slipped into her mouth seductively. Her hands were wrapped around his neck. His hands went to the side of her breasts and kneaded it. She let out a suppressed moan. He carried her up, he hands resting under her butt, and they found their way to the bedroom. In a minute, the knitted sweater she wore was gone, leaving her in just her bra and pants. He laid her on the bed, planting kisses on her face, neck, then on her breasts. He made sure to leave hickeys. With his help, her pants were gone too. When his finger touched her entrance, she inhaled sharply, a loud moan escaping her lips when she felt a finger, then two enter her. He kept thrusting in and out. Edward, however, froze when he felt no action coming from her. She had gone silent. He stood up to look
