“ Most of you know her as the girl on baseball cap who always snuck in to see me while some of you don't even know her at all. This is Ava, my lady and bride to be.” Nathan addressed the one hundred staffs who were present. He had called for a meeting so he could introduce Ava to the staffs.

“ Now, you would accord her as much respect as you accord me. Treat her well, I trust you will do unless you want to get fired.”

Ava was a bit tensed as two hundred eyes stared back at her. She was beginning to sweat and just like he noticed, he slid a hand under the table and touched her legs. They stared at each other and for some reason, she was relieved. Relieved she had him here by her side.

The meeting ended after ten minutes and everyone was free to go back to work. They moved out in groups and spoke in hushed tones.

“ Isn't she like twenty?”

“ He left Camille for that? How pathetic. She looked like she was going to pass out.”

    “ Uhm, Dean? Open up, I need some help.” Nathan knocked at Dean's door. “ What's up? Is anything wrong?” the door was ajar and Nathan stepped in quickly. He was looking grim and needed a few tips on what to do. “ Okay, Ava's family wants us at their house for dinner.” “ Us?” “ I and Ava, I didn't want to let them down on this first dinner so, I accepted and right now? I'm super nervous about how to behave and what to say.” “ Just be yourself, Nathan. They just want to see the real you. Be the person you are when around Ava. Be that kind of person and you will have the key to their hearts.” “ Should I take flowers along? What should I wear? Suits?” “ Yes, get some flowers and some chocolates. Also get wine and you are all set. Suit? It's a dinner for God's sake. An informal dinner not one of your business meetings.” “ Alright then. I will do as you say..” “ And one more thing, Nathan. You will do well, just don't show y

    “ They are here.” exclaimed Lina both excited and anxious at the same time. “ They are? Where's my granddaughter?” Grandfather asked as he stared out the window. A car had arrived but no one had alighted yet. “ Now, listen everyone. Mom, Dad, please go easy on him. We do not want to scare him away. Ava is deeply in love with him, please go easy on him. For your granddaughter's sake.” “ Carolina, this is the third time you have said this and we promised to be at our best behavior, at least for the rest of the evening. Didn't we?” Grandma threw the question at Lina while staring at her husband. “ Yes, you did. I'm just scared we might mess things up. Aviva has never been this happy and I just don't want us to ruin things.” Patting her on the back as a form of reassurance, they let their eyes do the talking. They all loved Aviva equally and would do anything to see her happy. Even if it meant putting on their best behavior for the rest of t

    “ Ava, you overreacted out there.” Nathan whispered the moment he hopped in. He knew he would recieve some kind of tongue-lashing if she's in a bad mood already. He could see the clouds darken on her face and they threatened to rain as they became darker and if there was anything like that, angry clouds. “ No, I didn't. I feared this would happen since the moment I received a phone call. That was why I hesitated a bit. Avery ruins anything good. Now I'm fully convinced that the jezebel in there isn't my sister.” “ You don't have to talk that way, Ava. Just breathe. Breathe Ava and get those stuffs off your mind.” She did exactly as told but that was the end of the conversation. She never muttered a word throughout the rest of the ride and he respected the fact that she wanted to be alone and quiet. It was 7:30pm but she had no idea what was coming. Nathan knew this would happen. He had foreseen it but he wanted to be present just for her sake and

    “ Why are we here Nathan? Who's this for? The night sky is so pretty tonight.” “ Why are we here? You will get to know soon. Indeed, it's as beautiful as you, Ava.” They were alone on the rooftop and the whole place was decorated with flowers. Candles were lit and petals of roses were used to inscribe her name on the wall. A bouquet of flower was kept on the table and the mood was set to make a toast to whatever it was they were celebrating tonight. The look of surprise and excitement on her face was clearly visible and contagious as she admired each and everything with a radiant smile. How could she repay him for all he had done? He had done so much already. He spent a lot on her and her family and would go out of his way to see her smile. Megan and Dean stood at the farthest end and watched Ava with a look of satisfaction. They had done well in such a short time, they knew the team they sent would do such a good job. “ Ava, do you like it?” Na

    “ I-I..” She inhaled and exhaled. With eyes closed and everyone shut out with just her thoughts left, she agreed she had always wanted this. She convinced herself that she was making the right decision for not just her but her family also. Flashbacks of every incident that had happened ever since they became a couple replayed in her head and as the night grew darker and the little whispers from everyone present who were beginning to feel she would reject Nathan, became louder, she relaxed and took a few drags of fresh air as her lips quivered and her eyes opened and standing right there, with her gaze fixed on the man she never expected would love her in return, she muttered but it was so loud for everyone to hear. “ YES. I will marry you, Nathan.” The loud shouts of joy and glee filled the hotel rooftop as loud shutters where heard as the journalists did what they do best. They captured this fascinating, once in a lifetime moment as Nathan Lewis slipped a ring on Ava'

    “ Why are they acting weird? They look like they just had a fight or something.” Megan observed the moment Nathan and Ava came out. “ There's no way that would be possible right? I mean, they just got engaged.” Megan asked again, in hushed whispers. “ There's a possibility, Megan. Whatever it is, I hope it doesn't escalate into something bigger.” Dean replied briefly and hurried over when he saw Nathan's signal. He and Meg were probably worried about this sudden change of attitude. They had left a happy couple up there but right now, Ava was pale and Nathan was just not happy. “ You okay? What's wrong?” “ Let's go home, Dean. I have had enough for the night.” He replied and George ignited the moment Dean got in the car. “ What about Ava? Are you not going home together?” “ She and Megan would do just fine. I just need to leave this place, plus she probably doesn't want to talk to me right now.” “ George, you should drive t

    It was just like any other night. Except for the fact that it wasn't. CEO Nathan Lewis had proposed to her on August 11th, 2023. It was one of the happy moments in her life, one that she cherished and would always remember with a broad smile. This was the start of a new beginning, a completely different phase. A brand new life with the man of her dreams. “ I never believed he would actually do this. I never saw it coming. Who would have thought? I'm engaged to the same man who I thought would never love me in return.” She had grandma to thank for all these. If she hadn't listened to her, she would probably still be at old Mrs. Cooper's grocery store and would retire to her happy yet sad family and definitely get frustrated when she go through the bills they were meant to pay. Asides the day she meant Nathan, the day he confessed about being in love and also the day he announced her as his girlfriend on TV, today was one of her happiest days on earth.

    She had gotten tired of standing by the window as her knees eventually gave way considering she had undergo a lot of stress. She went to bed after securing the door, she was too tired to slip into her pyjamas and only managed to wrap a robe around her. It was 6am. The sun was just starting to rise, beginning it's journey around the world making sure to cast a burning golden glow as little streaks were beginning to peep through her window until it finally cast his light over Mother Earth as the chirping of beds and buzzing of tiny insects came alive reminding the folks of V that it was a brand new day. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves of the few trees in sight, creating a soothing sound. Ava roused up and laid still for some minutes. She was like a computer that was rebooting and only rose up after it. It was a brand new day, could be termed sunshine after the storm yesterday. She had decided to put whatever Camille said behind her and focus on herse

It made me crave him more. I stepped out of it, our gaze still locked. In the past one second, Nathan has stared at my body in awe countless times. And here I was in the middle of some airplane, half naked with just my panties on. What if someone walked in? “ I will go change now. Hey, stop staring at me like that. It makes me want you more.. you have to promise to be a good boy and behave. We will have all the time in the world to worship each other's body when we are off this airplane.” “ I never said I planned to be a good boy, Aviva. Maybe I was but I changed my mind the moment I saw your smoking hot body. I really can't promise to keep my hands to myself, princess.” And he was being honest. I could make out the hunger in his voice as he spoke. I had starved this man

We have just a chapter or two more to go.. And also for this last part of the book, I will be making use of the first person POV.

I'm sure you could hear just how loud one's heart pounded if you listened keenly. I smiled at Nathan, he had tears running freely down his face. Today, he dropped the “ Strong, arrogant CEO who doesn't give a fuck about anyone” and in it's stead, was a handsome young man who was capable of loving someone. In him I saw someone who was tamed to love, someone who doesn't know just how much love he's capable of giving because he has never given it a try. “ Uhm, I don't know if you noticed fluffy bear, but they are a

    “ Nathan!” What was she doing here? It's a modeling audition for crying out loud. Nathan and Aviva folded their arms and watched her yell and whine about him being married. “ Caryn, can you slow down? By the way, who's married to you?” he asked and all eyes were fixed on them. This would serve as good entertainment while the judges were away tabulating the scores. “ Nathan Lewis, I will not have you humiliate me this way. I won't! Now, get up and let's go home.” she ordered like some boss who was passing out instructions to her employees. “ I'm not going anywhere, just yet Caryn. You can either have your seat and enjoy the show or you can choose to leave. Whichever works for you, my lady.” “ Are you being serious here? You're doing all this because of this, this ugly, classless girl? Are you not ashamed being seen with her? I'm pretty disappointed in you, Nathan.

We are rooting for you, Aviva.” “ Oh my goodness, this is the first time I have ever heard you say something positive. Thank you so much, Avery. I love you so much..” “ Girls, they are about to start. Come over.” Alex called out. Avery stared at her sister, she was grateful she had everyone back. They held hands and walked into the hall which was filled to the brim with people. Luckily, Alex had been able to secure seats for them all. “ Good day, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the semi finals/ finals. We are pleased to see you all. After the first round, hundred people were screened out and only twenty were qualified to move on to the next stage.” “ Well, only five people will be taken from this round to go on to the final round where we will pick only two persons.

    “ Mom. I got the money and narrowly escaped death. Someone else has been framed for stealing the money.” she informed her mom on phone and the lady went hysterical. “ You got it? That's my girl. You're just like your mom, Caryn. I'm so proud of you, darling.” “ Thank you mom. I will transfer half of the money to Dad's account. I want his company to be back on its feet for good.” “ Alright love. Your father sends his regards. One more thing Caryn, be careful out there.” “ I will. I love you, I have to go now.” They were outside, with ears glued on her door. They had heard it all, but Nathan beckoned on them to follow him. They tiptoed, to avoid being heard. “ Now that we have gotten concrete evidence, what do we do next?” Hazel interrogated. “ We will let her keep the money. I'm gathering a lot of evidence and by the end of the day, she would be left with nothing. All she stole right now, is the alimony I'm supposed to pay a

    “ What's going on?” There was absolute silence. If a pin had fell down, there was every certainty it would be heard. She walked in and met her beloved family in a state of distraught. She was sure they had heard the news already. “ Nathan honey, what is it? Why are you all seated there like some bunch of robots? Talk to me, somebody.” if there was one thing she was good at, it was pretense. She threw her shoes on the floor and rested her head on the couch. If they were not going to talk, then she would let them be. It was difficult to breathe as she felt a sharp pain around her neck. No one had expected it, not even Caryn herself. Nathan held her tightly around her neck, his fingers tightened every second, and his nails dug deeper into her skin. It wouldn't be long before she started bleeding. “ What are you doing, Nathan? Put her down!” Dean yelled but Nathan was no longer in control. He was infuriated and couldn't even hide it. “ N

    The dim light in the room made it a bit easy to see. These days she kept her curtains closed and the lamp, off. Today, she felt switching on a candle would be better. She had been in bed all day, doing nothing but mope. Her door moved slowly, and the dim light barely made it easy to see the lady's face. The woman who had birthed her, but now, it felt like they were two strangers meeting for the first time. Lina had walked in, without the tiniest courtesy of knocking. Ever since the issues with Ava, her family treated her like a complete outcast, her dad not excluded. They avoided her like a plague. The only activity that brought them together as a family, was eating at the dinning table. On most days, she would have her meal upstairs in her room. She decided to tag along to Ava's audition, not because she was invited but she felt like going. Rolling her eyes and heaving a deep sigh, she rolled to the other end of the bed. Her back was turned to Carolina,

    Now he knew why Dean made that prayer yesterday. He knew she was a bad cook but he didn't think it would be this bad. What happened last night was a mistake that would never repeat itself. Penne pasta with vodka sauce and some parmesan cheese. After the funny but useful prayer from Dean, they all grabbed their cutleries and proceeded to feast on the meal she had made. Dean went first and spat it out the moment it got into his mouth. “ Hell nah, I'm not doing this. I'm not doing this with y'all, I will ask the maid to make me something.” “ But it's really not that bad, Dean. Just close your eyes and chew quickly. Caryn you are such a good cook, no doubts.” Hazel spoke, forcing a spoonful of poison into her mouth. “ Do you like it? I did well, right?” she asked innocently. Nathan nodded, they all nodded. Hazel made Dean take a few more spoons of the terrible concoction she made. And for a sec, they had initially thought it wouldn't be as bad as

    “ Why does the room look like someone went through our things.” he inquired after taking a thorough look around the room. Something wasn't right, the drawers had items sticking out. The wardrobe wasn't properly closed, the pillows were wrongly arranged and the bed looked like someone had jumped on them. With a smile of deceit, she rubbed her palms and walked closer. Nervously, she asked. “ What do you mean?” her voice was shaky and her heart was pounding so loudly. “ I mean..” but on second thoughts, there was really no need to engage her in a conversation or questions her, knowing fully well she would deny ever searching for only God knows what, thereby turning the house into a mess. “ Nothing. Hazel is home, she lost her baby. I thought you should know.” he said with his gaze fixed on nothing in particular. “ Poor little thing. I will go check on her later, she must be feeling so sad at the moment.” Playing along, he replied.“ Yeah, she
