My name is Veronica Hargreaves and I hail from New York City, United States. Am actually going to be twenty-seven years old this year, and I am filled with euphoria to tell a very interesting tale about I and my playboy, Jake Benson. I would have to begin from the scratch with how Jake was introduced to me intuitively, when I was in search for playboys in my Company The Hargreaves Textile Company where I was the Ceo after my Dad Richard Hargreaves retired. The day was very sunny, and it was nine AM, in the morning when I was driven by my driver, an average-aged man James. James is a very funny man and as time goes on I would have to share some of the jokes he usually tells while driving me. When we drove, I admired the busy streets filled with people who were going on about their daily activities for the day and those lingering about. When I alighted from my black shiny Italian Limousine, I was greeted by my assistant, Viola Sunderland. "Welcome boss," She smiled at me as usual
"I heard about your response concerning what I wanted," I couldn't believe that those words came out of my mouth but maybe I was bold because I had doubted him a little bit. All I knew was that I was wrong to doubt him. "Yes boss, I can be so dangerous on the bed," Jake bit his lips seductively making me cringed in a romantic type of fear of what he might do to me on the bed. Those words sent longing cravings for me and I wanted to taste him and wanted his seed inside me. "Are you really okay with being my playboy apart from being my worker?" I said still feeling skeptical about him. "Yes, boss, I can be everything you want, even your husband," Jake said and I gritted my teeths without his knowledge. At this point, I felt weird and that he was going too far. I was never talking about marriage because I was still trying to weigh whether the relationship will end up in the same manner it had always ended up with me getting bored. "So make love to me then," I said. All of a sudden,
I remained motionless and dazed, when I laid my eyes on him in the lounge room of my family mansion. I stood there fluttering my eyelashes in contempt at his sight. "Dear won't you come and greet us and our guest," My Dad said. At this point, I felt so agitated and felt like shouting at everyone in the room but I had to compose myself. "Hello Dad and Mom," I waggled further into the lounge room, and sat on one of the lounges pretending that Lincoln wasn't there. Lincoln Xavier was a Billionaire in his textile industry and was very successful so it was very understandable why my Dad would want us to be together even though I had rejected him. "I hope you enjoyed the wine," My Mom inquired facing Lincoln after our family maid Juliet returned to collect the empty glass of finished wine. "Of course Ma," Lincoln said. "How have you been doing," Lincoln said as his stupid eyes met mine. "Oh my gosh," I muttered to myself. I hated him. "How dare you walk into my family house like that?
"Honey, Calm down," My mom continued attempting to calm my Dad down after I had left. "I mean, aren't you tired of her seeing those men she calls her playboys and finally getting ready to settle down for marriage?" My Dad said feeling irksome. "I know dear, but we can try and understand at least why she doesn't want to date Lincoln. Who knows maybe she has finally founded the person she wants to spend the rest of her life with," My Mom said. My Mom was always understanding, compared to my Dad and she was the one I was the closest to. "Hahaha, so you want me to believe that she has finally founded someone amongst her playboys? You and I know that she doesn't just stay with any of her playboys for more than two weeks and gets tired of them later on," My Dad said. "Okay then, if we find out that's the case, and she stays with the playboy for more than two weeks, will you then give her a chance of consideration?" My Mom waggled around my Dad for brief time. "Well, I doubt that would h
"Hi Dad, Hi Mom," my face was flushed where I stood. I still held unto Jake's hands and was wondering why. Maybe it was because I was determined not to let anything come in between us, not even my Dad. "Hello dear," My Mom said. With the look of things, I could see that my Mom was starting to understand the reason why I couldn't be forced to marry Lincoln. "I can't wait for two weeks, till you dump your other playboys as you always do," My Dad said as he went into the floor of the hall where the event was being held... "Two weeks, that's all I get and then you dump me right?" Jake said angrily. I understood how he felt and tried to explain. "Jake, I can explain, it's not what you think," I said, but he walked out to the main part with annoyance. When I went into the main hall, I saw that the workers cheered my Dad with the words "OUR CHAIRMAN!" Even though I despised my Dad for the moment, I felt happy for him that he was reaping the fruits of his hard labour. I remembered how he
I still stood motionless before Jake. I wasn't sure what to do next. "You mean that you aren't mad at me anymore?" I said. "I was before, but when I realized how foolish I was for being mad at you, I wasn't anymore," Jake said moving closer to her. "My life is a little bit complicated, for years now, I haven't settled down because I have been moving from one playboy to another not until I met you, I will never do anything to hurt you because you reminded me what love is," I said. At this point, I didn't know when the letter fell from my hands and Jake was free closer to me by that moment. "I love you, and I am going to prove it time and time again," Jake said as he finally moved next to me and kissed my lips. I was turned on and didn't know when I scattered the files on my table. "Jake," I said when he kissed my neck and chest. "The room," I said indicating that we should go into the room, which we both did but with Jake impatiently caressing me wit
I was already flaring up when I got to my family mansion. "Calm down dear," My Mom said. Even my mom was ignorant about what was happening. "Dear, what's going on?" My Mom inquired facing my Dad. Dad was looking a little bit guilty. My Dad knew what he did and how he planned with Lincoln to set up a marriage. "Mom, he planned with that good-for-nothing man for a marriage without my consent," I blurted out. I couldn't believe the fact that my Mom was ignorant abo what my Dad did. "Honey, but why," My mother said facing my Dad. "Dear, I am just doing what is good for her," My Dad said indifferently. "I can't believe this," My Mom said. "You have to, I am doing everything to ensure that she gets married to a notable person unlike a low-class playboy," My Dad said. At that moment, I flared up at how my dad insulted Jake and snapped. "Well, that low classed playboy you are talking about is everything better than Lincoln," I blurted out angrily. "Dear, calm down, don't talk in suc
I was baffled. "So my Dad was really serious and didn't even wait for me to leave and brought my kid brother to replace me as the Ceo," I muttered to myself. Now one thing about Paul was that he had textile knowledge and he always wanted to lead so it means he was getting what he had always wanted. "So what are you doing on my desk?" I inquired when I met him signing some papers. At this point, Viola came into the office as if to indicate the fact that my brother was there and to apologize for not alerting me earlier. "Hey! Stupid! Can't you see that I and my sister and are about to have an important conversation, I want you out of this office!" Paul blurted out. "Don't talk to my workers in such a manner," I said signalling to Viola who was hurt by those words that she could leave. "Well, she isn't just your worker, she is mine, same goes for others," Paul said as he continued signing some papers. "By the way, just to let you know, since I am the
Lincoln had gotten back to the mansion and he was very furious. Joseph had also gotten back and he was surprised and wondered why they both showed long faces and he wished to know what was wrong. "What's the matter," Michael said. "My Dad confirmed it and when I got there I met her herself, I would have ended my Dad's life and at the end of the day, she was there to protect him, now I have to annihilate them all if I want to get the company back," King said. "That is very serious indeed," Michael said. "So all the time you both went outside in search of answers proved to be abortive," Michael said. "Yes, mine was similar, I went back to my family to tell my wife Grace that we shoot elope together so that we could leave the city together and she refused," Joseph said shedding tears. "Hey aren't you a man, why would you be shedding tears," Lincoln said and Joseph scowled at him afterwards. "I guess it's because you don't have a family and that's why you have no id
Linda had successfully managed to enter through the door at the mole and went behind him to stop him from shooting at her. "Finally, the stranger who claims herself to be my sister," Lincoln said. "No, you are wrong, you know I never wanted to ever come back to claim what was rightfully mine, most especially because of the past, but at the end of the day, when I got to discovered how such a dicj you have become, I had to think twice about it," Linda said. "That's what you see me as, as the Dick, who was running things when you weren't taking any responsibility at all, I was, and then you are calling name a dick, how dare you?" Lincoln said. "Well, you have to surrender now, and make no mistake, if you don't do such, you wouldn't like what would happen to you," Linda threatened pointing the gun at him. Lincoln refused. "So are you going to shoot me or what? If you are going to shoot me now, why not go ahead," Lincoln threatened. Linda knew that she couldn't at
"Well, there is no need to worry about that, when I take it, in just a well we are going to hear the results of the pregnancy test soon," I said. "Alright dear, I am so excited, am sure this time it's going to be a boy," Jake said. "Yes, of course," I said laughing and we both laughed in unison. After I had taken my pregnancy test and was awaiting the results, I knew that I and Jake had to go to the office that day for work. While we were at the office, we were busy discussing with Viola about when we went physically to meet Linda and what the experience was. "Linda is here and she would be entering your office shortly," one of my men said and opened the door for her. When she came in, Viola was super excited. "Welcome ma, nice to meet you," she said with so much euphoria. "And you must be Viola, I have Heard about you, nice meeting you," Linda said as she shook hands with Viola. "Same here, Mrs Linda, I am so thrilled to see you," Viola SA before sh
"I can bet that we would get to get along with each other, we need to be strong and united and remove the mess that Lincoln has made of this company," Linda said. "Yes, of course," I agreed. "So, very soon, I would work on mine, and inform you when am done so that we can begin with the collaboration," Linda said. "Wow, of course," I said. "Alright, nice meeting you and striking a deal with you," she said as we all rose in each other and she shook our hands. When we were walking back and driving back to our company, I couldn't help but talk about Linda. "Wow, I love her charisma, her pretty looks," I said. "Yes, indeed, she is truly the firstborn of Thomas, it's great to know that Thomas has a daughter that can bring a good name to him, instead of Lincoln that spoilt it," Jake said. "Yes, exactly," I agreed and we got to our company. ... Linda was done with work. She knew she had started on her design and soon she woos be showing it to Jake and me at the end
"Who's, this is indeed epic, am glad that such has to be the case. I bet when Lincoln hears this, he is giving to be mad," My Dad said facing Thomas. "Who cares? When he comes back, the only thing that's going to be awaiting him, is simply the fact that he is going to pay for all his crimes and going to be arrested, so he better puts that in mind, before he does anything he wishes to do," Thomas said. "Ooh yes, that's true, I mean he needs to pay for all the crimes he has done once and for all," My Dad said... Linda had gotten to the company. Her driver was waiting for her with Thomas. Thomas had already told everyone about her coming and even the media was recording outside before she entered "Dear, it's time," Peter said with a smile and Simon was so excited that he held his mom's hands in euphoria. "Yes, of course, I am so excited, I think you should escort me inside," Linda said excitedly. "Of course, I would love to, I mean we would love to, we both are
"Yes, of course, I am preparing a plan whereby we would have to return to New York City and enact our revenge in a way that they wouldn't expect at all," Lincoln said facing. "Of course boss, I trust you to handle everything once and for all," Michael said with absolute euphoria. "Yes, so what about Joseph, isn't he up," Lincoln enquired curiously expecting Btgaf Joseph should have been up and handling things once and for all. "Ooh, yes boss, he is currently asleep, he hasn't woken up," Michael announced. "Ooh, no problem then, but one thing for sure is that I would come up with something very soon, so you would need to watch out," Lincoln said. "Ooh, sure boss, I trust you, but boss, there is something you need to know, which is the fact that whatever you must come up with, it has to be a new tactic, because at the end of the day, they would change in their tactics and what they plan on doing, one must come up with new tactics," Michael said. "Ooh, sure, don't y
"Well, there is no problem about that, I guess I would have to think about it, and I think that's fair enough," Linda said. "Yes, thanks my daughter, am so glad, I would appreciate it if you do, even my closest friends I didn't tell about you, that's how sober I was to be sorry for what I did in the past, but now I would be so excited to introduce you to them as my lost daughter and the firstborn," Thomas said. "It's alright, Dad, I would think about it," Linda said. Thomas was feeling so emotional the way, Linda was calling him, dad and he knew that if he had behaved well in the past, all this wouldn't have happened at the end of the day. "Thanks," That was all he could say and when he was about to leave, Peter came to the door. "Dear, welcome, back," Linda said as she pecked him. "Hey, Father-in-law, am so glad," Peter said as he bowed to show respect. Peter has always shown respect to Thomas because of the man he was present and not because of who he was in th
"Hey Linda," Thomas said with a smile on his lips. "Dad, I thought the deal was that you would never come back anymore and you would just leave me be," Linda said. "Dear, am very sorry, I know that you are very crossed with me, simply because of my past lifestyle and because you have promised not to hear me out or see me again, but please just hear me out," Thomas said. "Alright come in, my husband, Peter, isn't around yet, but he would be back from work, so am just alone with Simon my son," Linda said. "Okay, thanks for hearing me out," Thomas said and was let into the apartment at the moment. Thomas couldn't help but take a long at his grandson now. Everything was clear, Lincoln wasn't the firstborn, Linda was but his wife loved her so much that she couldn't bear that Linda should be brought up under Thomas's past drunken lifestyle and took her away. Even when he had changed, sometimes he tries to beg for her forgiveness, but even though she tries to forgive hi
"I am so glad you made the right decisions," I said feeling emotional and Hugging them all. I knew I was going to miss them all. "Yes, we had to, I mean, we could learn from Rosnwmays mistake, she left a kind of safety steps so that we wouldn't make the same mistake she did when she died, "Hannah said. "Yes, that's true," Jake said. "So, It's finally time," Sarah said knowing that the same way that they had come to the city is the same day and time and moment that they would be returning to Paris. Everyone present came to hug them, including, Uncle, Bernard, Aunt Lily and Samson and his family members. When they were done with the exchange of pleasantries, they all resolved to finally return to Paris even though it was hard to forget because of the people they were missing. "Now it's time for us to focus on dealing with Lincoln once and for all," I said facing Jake. "Yes, Veronica, let's end this once and for all since we started this journey together," Jake
