Stolen heaven Chapter 90: Dinner At Perchy Peach
Rissa glanced nervously at her reflection in the mirror.Mandy had done a great job, no doubt, but it had been a long time since she had been a spectacle at a workplace dinner.During the time she was dating Liam, many of her female colleagues would throw her disdainful glare at the company dinner as Liam's eyes were always on her.Now it is Adrian Grey, a more fierce lover; she glanced nervously at the watch, picked up her phone and dialled Adrian's number.She heard Caleb scream from the doorway.“Mum, dad is here”Her mind felt at ease and she got up abruptly to see him.The moment Rissa walked out, Adrian's eyes widened, and his jaw dropped in awe.“Wow! Mum, you look so beautiful”, Caleb said enthusiastically.Rissa blushed furiously as Adrian's eyes scrutinized her from head to toe.He smiled warmly at her and Rissa blushed furiously.His silence and charming smile said more than words could express.They got into the car and he couldn't take his eyes off her.“You are already m

“That wasn't nice, Adrian. Am I not welcome in Los Angeles?” Bianca responded, pouting.“Sorry, Bianca, I was just quite overwhelmed; you can sit; the dinner is about to commence”, Adrian responded, forcing a smile on his face.Bianca Grey, his young Aunt, is always a load of trouble.The only good thing in her life was Gracia, the only daughter she had from her third marriage which crashed before the child was born.Bianca threw an intent gaze at Rissa who bowed her head slightly in greeting.Her countenance remains expressionless, and she looks away, giving Rissa an impression of doubting her likability.The dinner commenced and everyone threw away their grievances to enjoy it.Liam threw occasional glances in Rissa's direction but she ignored it.Rissa was getting more nervous as the dinner progressed.She took a sneak peek at Bianca whose boldness weirdly intimidates her.Exotic delicacies and drinks were served and people kept digging in.Most bloggers were taking significant pic

Caleb watched helplessly as their luggage got pushed into the car.“Mum! You said we will be leaving on the weekend!” He cried out bitterly.“Sweetheart, the week ends tomorrow, a day earlier doesn't change anything”, Rissa said persuasively.Mandy was silent as she watched her crush, one of the bodyguards loading the car truck full of their stuff.She knew Rissa had her mind all made up, ever since she returned from the dinner the day before.She has been hellbent on moving out so quickly.Mandy had to resist the urge to question her about what triggered the firmness of her decision.Caleb, too, noticed a change in his mother's countenance when they returned from the dinner.Rissa's mind wandered as she had to pretend to be excited about moving back to their home.Liam's outrightly provocative behaviour at the dinner still pisses her off.He had hugged her tightly while millions of eyes were glued on them.She noticed Adrian's balled fist the moment Liam pulled away from her.The awk

“Who are you trying to seduce, Rissa?” Adrian said, looking into her eyes.Rissa stared intently into his eyes and busted out laughing.The others noticed their little conversation but pretended not to be eavesdropping it.Adrian Grey's confused expression made them realize something was definitely wrong between them as lovers, not employees and employers.“Myself, of course; I haven't had much time to dress younger in years”.Rissa's response set his mind at ease; it was really true; they both had to grow up quickly for individual reasons.They alighted at their picnic site and set up their tent.Music was put in place, and so were food, drinks and fruits.Rissa left Adrian's side and went ahead to sit with the women gisting about how the week had gone down.They started some games and merriment when a minibus stopped by the site.One look at the first person that alighted Adrian facepalmed himself.The other staff's countenance changed as they saw her too.Adrian, in a bid to salvag

Adrian kept throwing occasional side glances at Rissa as he drove her home.Seeing the picnic to an end had been his secret prayer.He stopped abruptly packing carefully by the roadside.Rissa gave him a confused look and questioned him on why he stopped.“I can't let you go home tonight Miss Stonebridge”, Adrian said scarily.Rissa was taken aback, what was this about?“Why?”An awkward silence ensued between them.“Adrian, say something! You are scaring me”.“I need you by my side tonight”.“Wait! Are you ill?” She asked, concerned touching his forehead.Adrian turns to face her but his expression remains unreadable.“Say something, Adrian. I am getting scared. Are you being threatened?”“Rissa, I had to muster all my self-control not to make love to you right there in the tent”.Rissa's face flustered; she felt an unusual heat in her body despite the car being well-ventilated.She slightly tapped Adrian's shoulder.“You scared the hell out of me silly!” She said playfully.Adrian h

Alice kept staring intently at Bianca whose attention never left Caleb as he rolled the ball.“Miss Bianca, are you interested in Caleb?”Bianca's expression turned confusing.“Excuse me?”“I mean, you have been staring at him all day”Bianca laughed hysterically, taking Alice by surprise.“Or you like his dad too?” She questioned suspiciously.“Because Miss Bernard looks at him every time because she likes him”.“Urgh! That crybaby, come on, spare me, Miss Bernard seems to like everyman”.“Don't talk about her like that!” Alice said and stormed off angrily.The sports period was over and the children were ushered back to their homeroom.Bianca picked up her phone and dialled a contact.Their conversation was quite lengthy and amusing as she laughed in between.Keeping an eye on her little nephew was turning out to be more fun than she had anticipated.She hadn't liked kids from the onset and never planned to have one.Two of her marriages ended when her ex-husbands decided to have af

“Why did you hurt Edward!” Bianca cried out bitterly.“Why would you accuse me of such?” the older man responded nettled.He dropped his wine glass on the table and glared at her.Bianca shed uncontrollable tears and sat down on the sofa dejected.“I am carrying your child”, she said in between tears.The older man scoffed loudly “Pregnant! Because of a one-time banging, how could you be so careless?”.He shouted at her, clearly irritated by her sight.“Is your husband aware?” He questioned her suspiciously.“He is”, she responded instantly.“Pretend it was his”, the older man shouted at the top of his voice.All light drained out of Bianca's eyes, she paled instantly.“I have an heir, I do not need an illegitimate child”.Bianca smacked him across the face, taking him by surprise.“You wench!” He shouted at her.“You are despicable, I am having this child!”“Wouldn't it be much easier and logical that your husband takes responsibility?”“He is fucking sterile!

Mandy heard a knock on the door and hastily checked on the visitor.To her amazement, Diane stood there smiling pleasantly.She pushed forward a cookie box to the door camera.Mandy scoffed loudly, she contemplated opening the door but eventually gave in to her curiosity.“I almost developed leg cramps standing out there all day”, Diane said sarcastically.“Unexpected guests should know that is a norm”, Mandy retorted hastily.Diane's countenance darkened for a few seconds but she managed to gain control of it.“Why are you here Miss Donaldson?”“Well, uhm…is Rissa home?” She asked innocently.“She is not”“Her son must be off to school then”, Diane said sweetly.“Why are you here Diane!” Mandy said with a dangerous glint in her eyes.“Oh! Steady there! The laser coming out of your eyes could burn down a whole building; I just bought some cookies hoping to make a friend; I was bored, you see”.She responded pouting innocently.Mandy laughed hysterically, “Cookies!

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
