last update Last Updated: 2024-12-25 14:30:08

Hours later, when night had come, Ava was done playing with her children and took them to bed. She pecked them on their foreheads.

“Goodnight, pumpkins,” she said with a cute smile on her face.

“We want to sleep with you tonight, mom,” Adrian said.

“Yes, mom,” Adrianna added.

Ava grinned at them. She would want to do that. No matter how demanding her work was, she always did well to be the best mom to them.

“Sweethearts, mom has to attend to work now. But she will make it up to you guys, okay?”

Somehow, the kids agreed and she left the room. She wasted no time in taking her bath and getting dressed for tonight. It was only a matter of time before she was done getting ready.

When she walked into the living room, Arnold was there. On seeing her, he got up from the couch with a dazed look.

“Oh my goodness, Ava. You look damn hot.”

Ava smiled. She was wearing a short gown. Not skimpy, though. But it was well fitted and showed how beautiful she was.

“Thank you, Arnold,” she repli

    Ava saw him and kept her cool. But Ryan? He lost it. He stood up from his seat. “You.. you came here with her,” he stuttered. “Yes, I did,” Edward replied. “I just had to.” Edward stood up and walked to Ava. Then, he bowed his head to her. They spoke in whispers before he left the place. Ryan could not believe his eyes. It was clear enough that Ava was out to get him. Not even in his wildest imaginations could he have imagined that she would be there with them.He walked to her. “May I?” He asked if he could sit in the couch facing her. Ava smiled. “You may.” Ryan sat down and couldn't say a word. Staring at her like that, his heart got filled up with regrets again. All he could think about was a life with her. He ruined the happy relationship they had. Ava dropped the glass of wine in her hand and clasped both hands together. Then, she cleared her throat. “Mr Ryan Blake, it has gotten to my attention that you have your interest in the Exon company. Oh no. The deal, right? Tha

    Throughout the drive, Ava could not help but feel more bitterness towards Ryan. He was married, yes. She wasn't wishing to take him out of his marriage. But the fact that he would still make the same decision, even with her current status, was hurtful to her. They had a lot of beautiful moments in the past. She had imagined life with him. It would have been a lot of fun if he was there as the father of her kids. When they got home, she stayed back in the car for a while to gather her pieces together. Then, she stepped out and headed straight into the house. “You're finally back,” Aaron said to her with a welcoming smile. Aaron and Arnold were having a chat over a bottle of wine when she walked in. Arnold got and hugged her. “Welcome, love,” he said to her. She threw a glance at him and faked a smile. She was too exhausted to rebuff him at the moment. “Good evening, Aaron,” she said. “You came.” Aaron got up. “Yes, I did. Arnold said it was not up to ten minutes after you left t

    Ryan's home was becoming a place of discomfort. All he needed was to go up there, take his bath and go to bed. There was no appetite for food and he definitely didn't want anyone troubling him. “Can we do this some other time?” He asked his father in a weak tone. Mr Blake didn't have the luxury of patience. He was clearly displeased with Ryan. “You don't expect me to drive to this place and wait for you to return so you can spew this trash out of your mouth.” Ryan leaned forward and rubbed his eyes with both hands. “Okay. What is it that can't wait?” Ryan asked. “I had a stressful day at work. And all I need right now is to go up there and sleep. Nothing other than that.” “What have you really been doing, Ryan?” Mr Blake asked. “Where are you coming from smelling like this?” Ryan heaved a sigh and leaned back on the couch. “Dad, I only had two bottles. And as for what I've been doing, I have been trying to save this business from the mess you pushed it into.” “What?!” Mr Blake

    The next morning, Ryan woke up to an empty bed. Kristie had woken already. Seeing that she was not there, he quickly took his shower and got dressed for work. He grabbed his briefcase and descended through the stairs. “Breakfast is served, honey,” Kristie said from the dining area. Ryan was about to say he had no interest in eating when he noticed that she was dressed up. She was heading out too. He stopped and walked to the dining area. “You ..are dressed to leave,” he said. “Is something happening today?” Kristie smiled at him. “Good morning, sweetheart. Well, I have to check up on my father today.”“Oh,” Ryan said and chuckled. “That's okay.” “Don't you think we should go together? It's been quite a good while since you saw my father. You don't even try to call him.”Ryan looked at her and smiled. For a moment, he felt pity for her. Kristie ended up falling in love with him when he had no feelings in his heart for her. He felt bad for it. But it wasn't something he could help

    Shortly after her daughter left, Mr Biden grabbed his phone and placed a call across to his friend, Blake. One ring… two rings… three rings… the call connected. “Hello, my friend,” Mr Blake said as he took the call. Mr Biden got up from the couch and walked to the entrance of his home. “Good morning, Blake,” he said. “I believe you slept well.” “Oh yes, I did. I wasn't expecting your call. Is everything okay?” Mr Biden giggled. “Let's say I had a little trouble sleeping last night after I figured out my friend and in-law is playing dirty games behind me.” There was a little break in the conversation before Mr Blake spoke again. “You must have seen it,” he said. Mr Biden stroked his jaw smoothly. “If you are talking about the short clip you tried so hard to get off the internet, then, my response will be positive. What the heck are you scheming with your son?” “Biden, you should calm your nerves.” “Don't tell me to. Your son is hurting my own daughter. I believe you are full

    Ava and Arnold dropped the kids off at school and were driving off. She took a glance at Arnold and all the things Aaron had said to her flashed through her mind. The elder might not be wrong. Arnold looked like someone who would do anything to fulfill his greed. Arnold noticed Ava was stealing glances at him. “Is there a problem?” He asked her. Ava cleared her throat. “No, there's not.” He smiled. “You seem bothered, you know. Would you love to talk about it?”“Well, I have given it some moments of thought,” she replied. “I think you are right in this case.” Arnold looked at her. “I don't think I know what you are talking about. What am I right about?” “The kids,” Ava replied. “I will talk to them.” Traces of excitement appeared on the face of Arnold. “You mean your children can now call me their father. Is that what you are saying?”Ava slowly nodded her head. “Well, yes.”“Thank you, Ava. Thank you so much.” Ava shook her head. “Don't thank me. This is strictly for busines

    Hours later, Ryan was in a local tavern drinking alone. He had texted Erik to join him and waited. He simply needed a way to escape the reality he found himself in. Slowly, pieces of his life were beginning to fall apart. And it was because of Ava. The thought of them having to end up the way they did was crushing his bones. A stripper walked up to him with giggles on her face. “Hello, handsome,” she said and caressed his back. Ryan turned on the high stool and looked at her. The last thing he needed was to be disturbed. “I'm not interested,”he said bluntly and gulped at his glass of wine. But the stripper girl was persistent. She touched his jaw and leaned closely. “I see a stressed man,” she mused in a whisper. “Let me ease you of your stress. You are too cute to be alone.” “He doesn't want you!” Erik said out of nowhere. "Let him be." Ryan looked and saw his friend, Erik. He walked up to Ryan and mounted on the next stool. “I just told you he is not interes

    Some days later, the internet was buzzing with adverts of the launch of the new company. Ryan did everything in his power to make sure it was streamed by every media outlet out there. He simply wanted the business to grow higher. It was his way of making up for the recent falls. Ryan stood in front of a mirror and buttoned his red Parisian tuxedo. It went with his black pants, a pair of shiny black shoes. After making sure he was in great shape, he grabbed his gold-plated wristwatch and locked it on his left wrist. Then, he sprayed his cologne all over his body. Kristie opened the door and walked in. On seeing Ryan, a smile crossed her lips. “Sweetheart, you look sweet tonight,” she said to him.Ryan turned and saw her. Kristie was wearing a long handless red dress. He could see her beauty. It just couldn't appeal to his emotions the whole time they've been together. “And you are stunning tonight,” he replied. Kristie walked up to him and kissed him on the lips, painting his lips

    When Ava got to work the next morning, she could see there was a little commotion outside the headquarters of Avalon corp. There were people loitering around and being held back by the security personnel around the vicinity. “What's…going on here?” She muttered while focusing her attention out there. Arnold chuckled slightly. “Are you really asking that question right now? Come on, Ava.” Ava looked at him. “What do you mean?” “In case you don't know, you are currently the most popular person in this city at the moment. The event last night has taken over the internet. I bet these people are here to get a few words from you.” Ava smiled on realizing what that meant. The moment her car was spotted arriving at the office, everyone turned their attention to her and raced towards the car. But the security guys were good at their job. They held the people back while Arnold found his way to the parking area. Arnold got out and opened the door for her. They locked arms and walked in, st

    Later in the night, Ryan drove back home. He had purposely delayed his return to make sure his wife, Kristie, was deeply asleep before he returned. He parked in the garage and killed the engine of the car. For a couple of moments, he stayed back in the car and stared at different pictures of Ava that were online. He just had no way of getting over her. He soon got out of the car and carried himself into the house. The lights were already off. His hands groped to find the light switch. When he turned it on, his eyes met with those of Kristie. His heart flew. He wasn't expecting to see anyone there. But Kristie was there. She sat on the couch with her legs crossed. On the table was a bottle of wine and a wine glass. “Oh my goodness,” he muttered. “You scared me.” Kristie smiled at him. “You were obviously not expecting me to be here by twenty minutes past two in the morning.” Ryan said nothing. He just stole a glance at his wristwatch. “You reek of alcohol,” she continued. “

    Ryan, at this point, felt completely broken. Ava mentioned she had a tough life. And he knew she was pointing fingers at him. He knew he was the one. But beyond that, she announced her love for Arnold to the people all around the globe. He was still sitting there, bleeding in his heart, when his father and Molly found him. He stole a glance at them approaching him and heaved a sigh. He knew he was up for another issue. “What did I just watch, Ryan?” Mr Blake asked him. Ryan said no word. He just kept mute without even looking at him. “Ryan,” Molly called him. “How is that low life the new—” Before she could finish the rest of the words, Ryan cut her off. “She… is not a lowlife,” he corrected. “As a matter of fact, she was never a lowlife.” Mr Blake heaved a disgruntled sigh. “How long have you known about this? Why the hell didn't you mention that your ex is the new chairwoman of Avalon corp?” Ryan was exhausted and needed a break from everything. If he had told them, what wou

    Every attention turned to Molly. They all had inquisitive looks in their eyes. “What do you have there?” Mr Blake asked her. “Something else has taken over the internet,” she replied. “What are you talking about?” Kristie queried her. “What else could there be other than the fact that this group is supposed to launch the new company tonight?”Molly shook her head and turned the screen of her phone to them. Everyone drew closer and looked at the screen. The caption read, “Avalon corp set to reveal the new chairwoman.” The moment Ryan saw it, his heart began to pound. It was Ava. She will reveal herself to the world tonight. “Did you ..know about this?” Mr Blake asked Ryan. Ryan shook his head. “No, I didn't.” “Damn it!” Mr Biden groaned. It became clear to them that the reason everyone didn't come for the launching of the new company was Avalon corp. And Ryan knew this was not just a coincidence. Ava simply wanted to hunt him. Everyone flipped out their phones and started str
