“Mum, are you dating Dad now?” Caleb's tiny voice sounded from behind Rissa.She turned and saw Caleb flashing his missing tooth.“Aren't you supposed to be in bed?” Rissa questioned, overwhelmed.“I couldn't sleep; Mandy was loud”, he responded, scrunching up his nose.Mandy eyed him maliciously “How was I loud?” “You were loud like this”, Caleb said and made a shirking noise.Rissa had to cover his mouth to stop him.“Keep quiet; it is late, sweetheart”, Rissa cautioned him and he adhered to it.“Okay, sorry, mum”, he responded dejectedly and made for his room, giving Mandy a dirty look.“That wasn't nice Caleb!” Rissa said.“Sorry mum! Sorry Mandy,” Caleb said and walked out gently.Rissa and Mandy exchanged knowing looks and smiled warmly.“Thank you Mandy”, Rissa said.She recounted the memory of her first meeting with her.Mandy had looked hideous on the outside but turned out to be a total sweetheart on the inside.“There is no need for that, you and Caleb have been keeping me

“Aren't you Liam Hickson's cheating ex-wife?”, Mr George questioned suspiciously.Rissa was overwhelmed and gave in to her impulsiveness.She smacked him across the face, taking him and everyone else in the office by surprise.“How dare you accuse me, you freaking snitch!” she shouted at him.To her relief his confidence dwindled, replaced by grief.He picked up his briefcase to leave when the security personnel walked in to arrest him.Rissa's heart thumped loudly in her chest.Not now! Not when her life just started making sense that her past would resurface to ruin things.She picked up her phone and dialed Mariah’s number who picked up immediately.She was about to talk when Abraham's masculine voice came through.“Rissa it's been a while”, he said hastily.“Hello, Abraham; I hope you are doing great?” She said, smiling pleasantly.“Yes, thank you, sorry your mother cannot pick up the call, she is suffering from toothache”, Abraham said calmly.Rissa felt suspicious at Abraham's

Diane's smile faltered as she saw Rissa and Adrian walk in.To talk about an unpleasant coincidence, this was the highest of it.They were talking about something hilarious and laughing.“Mrs Hickson”, she heard her lawyer call.Diane bit her lower lips in annoyance “I hope you understand perfectly well”, the lawyer said firmly.“Of Course Mr Bennett”, she responded nonchalantly, still distracted by the unpleasant peasant situation in front of her.She fought back the urge to snap them and publicize them.But her fear of the ruthless Adrian Grey held her back.She covered her face with her fringe and sunglasses.Yet she still fears the risk of exposure.“Can I leave now?” Bennett said with a smile plastered on his face.“Thank you, Mr Bennett,” she responded.The lawyer picked up his bag and left.Adrian and Rissa sat in the VIP section undisturbed.They kept talking about Caleb sharing likes and dislikes.“Enough about our child; let us talk about you, Rissa Stonebridge”, Adrian sai

“Is this enough response to your question?” Rissa asked sweetly.She watched Adrian's lingering gaze on her succulent lips.“Didn't know you were a great seductress”, he responded smiling.His worries melted away at the moment.“Didn't know I still have a touch of it”, Rissa responded with a wink.“Don't know why I’m always smitten by the fierce part of you”, Adrian said playfully.They both laughed wholeheartedly, a rich sound of two mesmerizing voices.“I’m still in contact with Liam Hickson; yes, he mistreated me in the past, but he wasn't a bad person to me initially; he was fragile and gullible, but I can assure you I only care about his wellbeing, but nothing romantic”, Rissa said.Adrian made a gesture of understanding by putting his hand on his chest playfully.“Caring about his well-being alone makes me jealous, but I can still live with that. Diane tried to gaslight me with the evidence”, Adrian confessed.“Diane? When? Where?” Rissa questioned suspiciously.“She was in the

Diane bit her lip in regret watching Liam's smug countenance.She had fallen right into his hands, it was glaring he had her cornered.“I was drunk”, she pleaded desperately.“Really! Your diary suggests this was a normal thing for you”, Liam responded nonchalantly.“That was way before we got married, I have been faithful to you!” She shot back at him.Liam scoffed loudly “Is that supposed to make me feel better?” He questioned her bluntly.“I am not trying to persuade you, Liam; I just don't want to fight dirty with you,” Diane responded boldly.“You are one hell of a crazy bitch, do you know that?”Diane didn't respond, she just pouted disapprovingly.She tried to stand up and staggered back feeling lightheaded from the hangover.“You shouldn't have tried to taint Rissa, you deceptive wench!” Liam screamed out angrily.“Did you even try to listen to her? You are here judging me; I only fueled the problem; the decision came from you! Gullible minded coward!”, Diane thundered.Liam

Rissa shut the file with a thud immediately after she dropped the call.“What the hell could have actually happened?” she thought, confused.Caleb sure is an active boy but he was never the type to hurt anyone.Rissa was still caught in between her steaming romance with her extremely attractive boss and getting a hang of her responsibilities at work.Still, Stella wouldn't stop calling her in a few days' interval to seek pregnancy counsel, claiming she hadn't had any child in thirty years.She picked up her bag and rushed out of the office sending Adrian a quick text on her whereabouts.If Mr George wasn't fired she would have had to seek his permission.Without any superior to report to, she had been saddled with the responsibility of dealing with the CEO directly by her colleagues.When was Percy Peach going to get a replacement for Mr George?She got into the cab hastily staring intently at her ringing phone.Rissa contemplated picking it up and she eventually did.“Is he okay?” Ad

“I don't like Miss Bernard!” Rissa said, pouting.Adrian just smiled knowingly “Is that jealousy I am sensing?” he questioned playfully.“Didn't you see how she was literally drooling all over you earlier today?” Rissa said, rolling her eyes.“She already said her word was a slip of the tongue, she didn't mean it”, Adrian said defensively.“And you believe that?” Rissa said in a disbelieving tone.Adrian didn't respond, he loved her jealous tone.He was enjoying himself at the moment.“By the way, how did you know his school?” Rissa asked curiously.“Mandy told me, I called her when you weren't picking up my call”Adrian responded as an unsaid pain laced his mesmerizing eyes.“I am sorry, Adrian; I shouldn't have shut you off from your parental rights”, Rissa said apologetically.“It is fine; I wasn't upset, just disappointed; I am glad we sorted it out”, Adrian simply responded.Rissa hugged Adrian lovingly, she busted into tears as she reminisced over the memory of it all.If Adrian

“Mr Grey, were the pictures real or photoshopped?” The interviewer questioned swiftly.Rissa bit her finger nervously as she watched Adrian's countenance shift from the screen of her laptop.Adrian adjusted on his seat, doubling up his domineering aura.“They were real," he responded.Breathes were drawn from millions of viewers, Rissa included.“You mean you have an illegitimate child?”The interviewer questioned again taunting him.“I do not approve of my son to be called that, although I wasn't aware of his existence for six years now, he is my son”Adrian responded sternly, stressing out his last sentence.“My apologies, Mr Grey, but are you aware that said mother of your child turned out to be an ex-wife of Liam Hickson of Golden Fingers, your business competitor?”.“I am aware”, Adrian responded dismissively.The interviewer was taken aback by it so were millions of viewers.“She cheated on him”, the interviewer said coyly.Liam stared intently at the screen of his phone desper

Stolen heaven Chapter 138: Entrap Me, Miss Wilson
Amber picked up her setting spray and splashed it on her face. She had spent the last two hours adding flashy makeup to her face, and she couldn’t sleep all night as she had contemplated the abortion several times, but she was still indecisive after coming up with fifty reasons why she shouldn’t keep it.It didn’t help matters that Liam hadn’t called her since two days ago that she missed his call, she didn’t call him too as her conscience kept prickling her, probably Liam was pulling out after his encounter with Diane the previous day, she couldn’t be sure but one thing was certain, she wasn’t ready to trap him with an unplanned pregnancy.She wore her five-inch heels and made for the door. She turned back to the mirror to double-check her effort, and it all looked perfect as if she was on her way to a red carpet event. On a day like this, she craved some alcohol, but she knew it would be a terrible idea, considering she was heading in for surgery.“You look stunning Miss Wilson”.He
Stolen heaven Chapter 137: To The Battlefield
Liam opened his eyes slightly as he heard Amber's loud yell over the phone, he saw Diane hovering over him and consequently jolted up in awe. She looked over at him and smiled sweetly. To further worsen the crime, she had him bound to the chair.“Sweetheart, was your dream pleasant?”Liam scoffed loudly and tried to remove his shackle but obviously Diane had done a great job of fitting it tightly enough to resist breakage.“How could I when I woke up to such an irritating sight as you”?Diane picked up her bag and swayed her hips; she acted unaffected by his spiteful words; Liam contemplated taunting her further, but remembering how temperamental Diane could be, he decided against it. She didn’t say anything and just walked out of the door leaving him stranded.A few minutes later, Adrian and Amber rushed in, breathing heavily; relief flooded their minds as they met him unharmed, with tears in her eyes; Amber started untying him while uttering inaudible curses under her breath, which

Diane stood in Liam's way smiling sweetly at him. Liam felt irritated from the depth of his heart; Amber was in danger; he needed to be there.“Where are you headed in such a rush?”“None of your concern Miss Donaldson”.Diane scoffed loudly; hearing Liam refer to her as that infuriated her. She adjusted her stance exuding dominance. She was certain he was aware of her leveling up and dining with the upper authority now; she had to live up to it.“I need to talk to you; let us go back to your office, Liam”.Liam checked his Rolex watch as his heart was beating loudly. He was about to yank Diane out of his way when his phone rang and he picked it up instantly.“What is the situation?” He questioned suspiciously looking into Diane's amused face.“It is all under control. Don't come, Mr Hickson”, Adrian said calmly.“I have Miss Donaldson right in my face here”, Liam pointed out.“Great! Keep her occupied. Don't worry, Liam, I will keep Amber safe”.Liam dropped the call while still star
Stolen heaven Chapter 135: Caught Unaware
The evening wind blew in Rissa's face allowing her to inhale the healing nature has to offer. She slightly touched the strangle mark on her neck as her mind drifted to it.“Are you okay?” Adrian questioned worriedly. Her quietness had made him uncomfortable and he blamed himself for risking her life by bringing her to the party.“Who would be okay after a conversation with the devil”.Rissa said sarcastically and Adrian laughed. They had all exchanged uncomfortable looks when Mr Denver had requested that they hand over something of his in their possession.Amber had discreetly drawn out her dagger from her undergarment in case they got attacked right there, but to their surprise, Mr Denver laughed hysterically and called his word a sick joke.The joke was really depressing in reality!He had left their table afterward and focused his attention on mingling with other guests. Relief flooded their minds, and they planned their quick exit before they got whisked into something dangerous t
Stolen heaven Chapter 134: Hello Mastermind!
The older man chuckled softly as the reaction he got from them was exactly what he was hoping for. Adrian exchanged knowing looks with Liam who was as taken aback as he was.“Seeing the top two business Mongols and competitors sticking side by side, Miss Donaldson must really be something”.“We are…..” Amber tried to cut in, but Liam stopped her discreetly. Obviously, they aren't at a tea party trying to gain ground. This mastermind is unknown, they shouldn't match up to him yet.“Oh, Miss Wilson, I heard your parents passed away last year; my condolences.”Amber swallowed hard; who the hell was this man? He seemed to be conversant with them so well that he acted so familiar, yet they had never met him before. Amber was not the type to be big on surprises, and she most definitely hated this particular one.“Do you run a company too?” Adrian's voice came through; he tried to sound confident and firm despite his heart thumping loudly in his chest.“Nah! I don't like the business world;
Stolen heaven Chapter 133: The Uninvited Guests
With another glance at the mirror, Diane felt proud of herself; a few times she visited an exquisite spa, her skin was glowing and radiant once again. The makeup artist had done a flawless job which made her look beyond perfect.It was her day, she kept reminding herself despite knowing her birthday party was a mere facade. It was a gathering of murderers hiding behind the mask of the law.“Miss Donaldson, the party is about to commence”, Her personal assistant reported to her.“Thank you Bridgette”, she responded enthusiastically. The fair-skinned petite girl bowed slightly and left.Being a puppet ain't all that bad, unlike Sydney, who tried to play the princess; Diane knew her place better and was ready to stick to it. She definitely owes them her life for getting out of her crime unscratched.Strangely enough, her victim committed suicide out of guilt for framing her in the first place. His suicide note was detailed enough to include that piece of information.Diane stood up abrup
Stolen heaven Chapter 132: Blown Out Of Proportion
“Everything looks unusually quiet”, Rissa said tapping her feet as she was feeling uneasiness from the pit of her stomach.Adrian moved close to her and wrapped his arms around her curvy hips seductively, he lifted her chubby cheeks to face himself and looked into her eyes.It has been a month since his discharge from the hospital and his horny feeling has almost been blown out of proportion. Rissa had denied him intimacy on the ground that he wasn't healed enough yet. He was more than thrilled to return to her that day after his checkup to share the news of his full recovery and hopefully make love to her.To make matters worse, he had returned to meet Rissa dressed the part as the short dress she had on had accentuated her shape and barely left anything to the imagination. He knew the feeling had been mutual but Rissa was always more logical than he was in that regard.“Can we not think about that for a second?” he whispered into her ears seductively, and she smiled inwardly.Sensin
Stolen heaven Chapter 131: Fallen Jezebel
Rissa reached into the bag and adjusted the brown jacket to fit in properly before zipping it shut. She had insisted on packing up Adrian's luggage, resisting the bodyguard’s helping hand. Two weeks of watching him recover from his near-death had left her with a form of clinginess to him.They were finally leaving the hospital premises discreetly, but Adrian's countenance suggested he wasn't happy which was really strange.“Is anything the problem babe?”“Not really, I am just baffled that the other party has been quiet for some time”.Rissa understood perfectly well, they were dealing with powerful opponents who wouldn't take defeat for an answer. Sydney was a mere weapon to them, if she had died, she could easily be replaced.Sensing his uneasiness, Rissa dropped the bag she was packing and wrapped herself around him gently, loose enough not to touch his wound. They both stood there for some seconds comforting each other in peaceful silence.“Let us look out for unmistakable foul pl
Stolen heaven Chapter 130: Make Up Your Mind
Rissa's hand gently massaged Adrian and he reciprocated with a heartwarming smile. It had only been a few hours since he regained consciousness, and too many overwhelming emotions had formed in his heart.Diane Donaldson‘s shameful arrest that was circulating all over the internet added to the list. She had really been an unrepentant criminal. Just when he started seeing a good side to her, she had ruined it all with her impulsiveness.Bianca walked in with a tray of fruits. Her face lightened up instantly as her eye made contact with Rissa, and she gave her a reassuring smile. After the heated argument they had before the interview, she thought Rissa would despise her afterwards, but relying on her flooded her heart when she didn't.Everyone knows Bianca Grey’s terrible temper, she assumed Rissa must have thought.“Crybaby, have some fruit, you need more vitamins now”.“Thank you, Bianca”. Rissa said and collected it from her, she diced it into smaller pieces and started feeding it t
