Sonia looked up and saw Anthony and Raymond facing each other. "I don't want Raymond to see my face, I know how he would recognise without a long stare, I need to do something very fast." She thought within a troubled heart, she wiped her tears when an idea struck her brain. She quickly opened the carrier bag and brought out a navy blue scarf, she used it to cover her head and her face. Anthony turned after scolding Raymond. "Hey, lady, who are you and why are you here?." Anthony asked in total anger. Sonia stood on her feet sluggishly and turned her face to them, Anthony saw the saved, he was curious to see the person's face. "If you are bold enough, remove that thing right now." He yelled, Sonia spoke up immediately. "It is Sonia sir." She answered softly, he released a chuckle and stared at her in surprise. "Who is Sonia?." Raymond asked in puzzle, Sonia rolled her eyes at him secretly. "You were the one who slammed the door and ran off, what exactly is your problem? You ca
Anthony strolled out of the room situated in his office with his head bowed as he used his two hands to button up his shirt. Sonia wetted the previous one with her tears. She left awhile ago, before she left he asked her what happened but she didn't tell him about it. Anthony was done buttoning up his shirt, he adjusted it properly and landed his butt on the seat. He placed his face into his left palm. "Why didn't she want to tell me what made her tears up badly." I' can't tell you know because it will unveil the bad memory I had in the past which I don't want to happen. Don't worry about me I will be fine." Her words flashed through his brain. "I don't know what might be the reason for her reaction anyways, I hope she would be fine to take the work I would be giving her to do." He muttered and looked straight into the laptop, he placed his fingers on it but his full concentration wasn't on it as he was thinking about Sonia. "Arrgh, why am I thinking her now, I need to get somethi
Mrs Gilbert sat on the sofa with a beautiful smile on her face as she read through the magazine in her hand, Marissa came in with a tray of water. She placed the tray gently on the stool and poured Mrs Gilbert a glass of water. "Thank you." She appreciated it, Marissa turned to leave, but she stopped her. "Humm, have you seen Sonia because I haven't seen her ever since after she went to Anthony's company." "I saw her going upstairs the other time, I don't think she was in a good mood with the way she spoke to Mr Gilbert and her face expression was dull." Marissa stated innocently. "Are you serious about this?." She asked for confirmation. "Yes Ma'am I am very serious about it." She replied truthfully. "You can go." She dismissed her, Marissa bowed slightly and left. "I wonder what Anthony might have done to her. I told Gilbert not to allow her to go but he won't listen to me. I need to call him right away." She thought in concern. She took her phone from the stool, she searche
Adam laid on his bed while playing a video game, he did the screaming, smashing and playing by himself. He just wanted to be alone, he walked to his room awhile ago, he laid on the bed staring at the ceiling. He wanted to erase all that his mum has said to him but it is not erasing at all. He decided to play a video game, though he wasn't enjoying it but he kept on playing as he wasn't remembering everything. "Adam, can I come in?." Mrs Gilbert asked for permission. "Yes you can, that is if you wish to come in." He snapped with a rolled eye. She solemnly walked in and sat next to him on the bed. "How are you? Have you gotten something to eat? Should I get you pizza or chocolate bread or ..." He was getting pissed up by all the questions already. "Mum please it is enough, you can't talk me into accepting with your kindness so just give up on it." "Don't get me wrong son, I am here to have a son and mother time with you. So let's just enjoy the moment and forget about what hap
Anthony and Sonia disengaged from the hug, even though they want to stay in that position for a very long time."Thank you and sorry for what happened to you. I would like to know how you overcame those horrible times, maybe it would help me too." She requested."I am not going to tell you, find the best way to heal by yourself. I want you in my room in a few minutes." He said and walked out of the room."Thank you Anthony you made me feel better with your words and most especially your hug." She muttered underneath with a big smile on her face. She turned and walked towards the mirror and cupped her face in her palms, her gaze fixed into the mirror."Why will you let a random guy make you weep so much? Come on, you are a lady for God sake, so far so good and bad, Ray is not the only guy that betrays you. You healed from the previous pains, get your mind off him and live your life the way you want it." She stated with a smile on her face."Ray is nothing to me and he would never be."
The camera clicked at Moringa who poses in front of the camera. The photographer stood and watched how Moringa was changing her style and adjusting her dress due to the help of her PA and others."You can continue." She instructed the photographer, and he took her shot. She took few more shots, then she was done. Moringa is the most popular young model in Switzerland and other countries near there. She is Anthony's rejected fiance, he treated her anyhow but she doesn't want to leave the young billionaire. She has been away for a while due to her work, she kept getting contracts from different companies, tho she is rude and arrogant but they still run after her because she is popular."Thank you so much Moringa for your cooperation, it is nice doing business with you." A young man appreciated, he stretched out his hand for a shake but she rejected it. The young man was embarrassed but he didn't show it, he doesn't want to make the mighty Moringa to get angry with their company."You
Anthony jumped out of bed at the sound of the alarm which was blaring loudly. The image of Sonia registered in his mind immediately, a solemn smile appeared on his lips. He adjusted himself properly on the bed and rested his back. His thoughts were filled with Sonia. He came back to his senses after a few minutes. "Why am I thinking about her? I hated this girl a lot. I don't think that would change. I still hate her." He muttered. "You don't hate her, you are beginning to like her as a normal human being would." His instinct screamed. "No, I hate her, f**k." He cursed, running his hand through his hair roughly. He climbed down the bed and walked straight to the bathroom immediately. He stretched out his hand to where his toothbrush was, he pasted a tooth paste on the brush and started brushing. Once again he remembered Sonia. He shook his head repeatedly hoping he would get her off his mind but he couldn't. "Make peace with her already." His instinct said again, he looked into
Sonia opened her eyes slowly, she felt it was a dream but it was a reality. Her eyes moved to his eyes which were fixed on her. "I can't believe he saved me, someone pinch me, I am in a dream land. I heard he never helped anyone but he helped and prevented my precious butt from hitting the ground." She thought happily. Anthony was lost in her eyes as he saw something special in them. His eyes met with her pink lips, he felt the urge to taste the sweetness of the lips. He began to lower his head, and suddenly, he came back to his senses. He cleared his throat and made her balance on the floor, she adjusted herself and turned to him. "I am very sorry Sir, I didn't know the floor was slippery and thank you for saving me." She apologized and appreciated it at the same time. "No, I should say sorry to you instead because I knew water was on the floor but I didn't tell you." He replied, he raised his eyebrows when he realized what he just did. "F**k sh!t, you are getting soft on this g
Ten years later. Sonia's pov I sat on the dressing chair, I stared into the mirror with a beam of smile. A lot of things have happened during the last few years. I would like to start with Nancy, she graduated from college a few years ago with a lot of honors and awards. There is no doubt that she is intelligent and brilliant. She is correctly the richest business woman in Switzerland, she would be the only young lady to attain that position. Everybody became proud of her. Adam and Andrew also graduated from the college, they established themselves without their father's money. Andrew got married three years ago and fathered a beautiful girl. Adam got married to Lily immediately they graduated from college, the preparation was in a rush but it was fun. They are blessed with twins and a boy. Mike was released from jail a week after our wedding because my father said so, sincerely speaking I didn't want him to be freed yet but I had to respect my dad's decision. He apologized for e
Grace raised her head and looked at them, she laughed at her stupid thought. "Amanda has her own life to live and I also have mine. She left me here without caring or trying to get me out of here." She thought again and faced Sonia. "I am going to accept this deal but make sure I get my money immediately when the work is done." "Don't worry everything is ready, you will get your money immediately you call her there." Sonia assured her with a smile, she knew Grace will accept the deal because Grace is a greedy type. "It is done, but firstly, I need to eat good food. I want you to buy clothes for me but I don't want Amanda to grow suspicious so you will do that later." Grace stated with joy. "That's not a problem, everything will be done as long as you do as we say." Sonia assured her and she nodded. Mr Gilbert smirked secretly at the success. Amanda sat on the sofa with a frown, Rika was beside her and Gladys was on her feet holding her phone with a frown too. "Do you mean the
Sonia and Anthony came out of the car as the door was widely opened by the security men. He walked to where Sonia was and grabbed her hand. The workers greeted them as they walked in.They got to the elevator and Anthony pressed down the button, Sonia went in first, then he followed."I think this is the right time to tell her." He thought and faced her."Babe, do you know where Lamarded Hospital is located at?." He asked, Sonia tilted her neck."Yes I do, how did you know the name of the hospital?." "I came across a doctor yesterday, then he told me about somethings which I would like to check out today before we go back." Anthony explained with a nervous smile. He prayed inwardly as he await her response."That's not a problem then, the driver will take you there, please don't take too long so that we can go faster." Sonia said and the door of the elevator opened. They both walked out and headed to her office.Anthony's driver parked the car properly in the hospital's garage. He ca
Sound of footsteps could be heard as Mr Gilbert descended down the stair case. He just left Andrew's room.His face wore a deep frown as what Andrew told him kept ringing in his memory."No that's not possible, I can't tell Sofia about what I do outside the country and I can't leave the family's business or else I and my family will suffer for it. She will surely get mad at me for hiding it from her for a very long time. What do I do now?." He thought.After climbing the stairs he found his way to the living room. He brought out his phone and was about to dial a number when a call came through. A short smile appeared on his face when he saw the caller ID."Thank God, he called at the right time." He said and sighed, then picked the call and placed the phone closer to his ear."Hi Dad, how are you doing?." Anthony asked."I'm fine son, how is everything over there? I hope you are getting familiar to that place?." Mr Gilbert asked in a low voice."Yes Dad, what happened? You sound reall
Anthony wiped off his face with his palm hoping he was seeing something else."Is he truly the one? I am sure he isn't the one. Everybody said he was dead maybe I saw another person who I mistaken as him." He thought."Who are you?." Mr Robert asked again, that brought Anthony back to reality."Never mind, I think I mistook you for another person, I need to take my leave now." Anthony rushed the words and left.Mr Robert continued looking towards his direction until he was out of sight."I really need to talk to this guy, I'm sure he is not from this country because of his appearance and accent." He thought and sighed.Anthony walked into the restroom and released his pee into the water closet. He washed his hands after he was done. Anthony checked himself in the mirror, then the thought of what happened earlier came to his mind. He rested his two hands on the cabinet and faced the mirror."I need to get this off my mind right now, I don't want Sonia to question me for been moody or
They arrived at the restaurant, Anthony parked the car and stopped the engine. He opened the car and ran to the other side, then he opened the door for Sonia. His face flourishes with smile, as the door opened widely Sonia looked at him and smile. His smile was contagious. He stretched out his right hand to Sonia and used to their hand on his chest. She grabbed his hand and came out gracefully from the car, people around brought out their phones and start capturing them while some commenting. "Wow she is finally back." A lady said, the lady beside her shook her head at that statement. "She is not only back but she is back with a great smile on and a partner. It is very hard to smile again after everything that happened to her but I am happy for her." The lady corrected nicely. "Thank you everyone and I am very happy to be back into this country. Thank you for your support and love, I love you all." Sonia complimented and walked in with Anthony. "They really love you." He said wi
Andrew hugged his mother tightly to himself, it felt as if he would be losing her at any moment. Mrs Gilbert also hugged him tightly.The atmosphere was calm as the two of them cried on each other's shoulders.Adam got out of his car and walked in happily, he met his Dad sitting on the sofa while punching the keyboard of his laptop."Good evening Dad." Adam greeted and walked past him, Mr Gilbert raised up his head furiously and spoke."Where are you coming from by this time of the night? Don't you know everybody is not safe?." He questioned, Adam stopped right on his track and faced his Dad."I went on a date with my girlfriend and don't worry nothing will happen to me." He replied jovially. Mr Gilbert narrowed his eyes at him."You went out with Thompson's daughter?." He asked as he was finding it hard to believe."I know what you are thinking about Dad. Her parents has given me the full opportunity to date her, so she is officially my girlfriend." He explained. Mr Gilbert was still
Hailey opened the door and walked in, Anthony and Sonia were still in their previous positions. They both turned towards the door,Hailey put up a bright smile and moved closer to Anthony. She bent over to his size. "Everything is here Sir." She informed, Anthony jumped out of the sofa immediately and walked out with Hailey. "What's up with those two?." Sonia asked herself after seeing them whispering something into each others ear. He checked everything out and it was perfect. "Thank you so much Hailey, I really appreciate your help." Anthony appreciated her. "Anytime sir." She said and walked away. Anthony arranged the boxes according to their sizes, there were three boxes. One for chocolate, another for cookies and the last one for meatballs. He placed a bucket of ice cream on it then he adjusted the flower properly. He breath in and opened the door. "Surprise see." He screamed, Sonia looked up from her laptop and saw what he brought in. "Wow." She opened her mouth in awe,
Anthony and Sonia walked into the office Hailey had cleaned. Everywhere was neat and clean. Sonia went to sit on her seat and closed her eyes as she remembered that she has once sitted on that seat before. It felt so new. Happiness filled her heart as she remembered what Mike has done. "It feels so good to be back on my seat. The very seat I deserve a lot." She thought and smiled happily. Anthony looked at her and smiled too. "She is very happy and cute. I wish I could keep seeing that smile on her face every minute and every second." He thought. "Wow, she is smiling at an invisible thing." Anthony suddenly said, those words made her jolt off from her thought. "Come on, I am not seeing invisible things. I am smiling because I am very happy to be back into this office. Mike never wanted me to be here again but you helped me. I can't even express how much I appreciate you for what you did for me. Thank you so much baby. Thank you for putting smiles on my face, you are the reason fo
