"That's so touching,"She said placing her hands on her chest, she wasn't taking him seriously but that's okay."Okay, Mr. Time is up, I have to go home now, it was nice talking to you, or maybe not, anyway I have to go now,"She said getting up and grabbing her bag, it was just past one and she was already leaving?"I can drop you off,"He offered, following her out of the office, the staff were looking at them weirdly and they must have heard their conversation, but he didn't mind, he didn't mind and wasn't going to feel embarrassed about it."I can drive myself, I got a license,"She responded. Another thing that changed about her, there was so much change that he fear he might not know this woman anymore but he wasn't going to let that fear stop him, she can change all she wants, change is the only truly constant thing, his love for her too, he was going to let the changes he sees stop him, she was a good person and good people don't suddenly become bad and Nicole can't even be ba
Nicole drove home in a foul mood, the worst part of it all was that she didn't even know why she had lashed out at him like that, he had been doing the same thing for over two weeks now and she was even used to him showing up at odd moments even after she told him not to, he didn't listen and it never made her pissed, she had been laughing and joking with Aron before he showed up and her mood went down immediately, she saw the shock and hurt in his face but she didn't mind at that moment, her hormones were acting out and she didn't even know how to control them, she knew she overreacted."I shouldn't have done that,"she said to herself as she entered her room and laid on her bed, it was still early but she usually comes home early on Friday to enable her to start her weekend on time and enable her to regroup for the new week, she has been doing great so far and wasn't stressed at all, and she finally found a routine that worked perfectly for her, aside from Rafael who was always on h
"Cole, let's go out,"Natalie said later that evening while she sat in her run still having a bad day and it was all Rafael's fault, today made it officially a week since he last came, the mad man."Sure,"Nicole said . She needed to get out of this space before she go crazy."Get dress, we will leave in twenty minutes,"Natalie said and left the room, Nicole didn’t bother to ask her where they were going, she wanted to be anywhere but on her own."Where are we going to?"She asked Natalie on their way, Natalie was driving and singing along to the song playing on the stereo."A club,""A club? What? I don't go clubbing, take me back home,"Nicole said . She should have asked before leaving the house, she just thought they were going out like they used to, a club was a whole new thing to her."No, way, you are looking so down, a club is what you need to lift that mood, the rush there, you will enjoy it don't worry,""I don't want to,""You already agreed, I am not taking you back hom
Rafael looked around his new achievement, the mine officially opened today and in a few weeks he would be a gold miner too, yes and he was close to achieving his long term goal of being the youngest trillionaire, apart from this his other businesses were doing great at the moment and he was making billions in minutes, well that didn't guarantee that he was happy though because he wasn't, he hasn't spoken with Nicole for over two weeks now and she hasn't called or anything else, he thought if he stayed away then she would miss him and at least call but he must have taken her for granted and she has shown him she wasn't up for that, he missed her a lot and want to call her every day but he needed her to make that move, to call him, and it looks like that's not going to happen, which means he wasn't halfway there yet, he wasn't even close to gaining her back and that shit wasn't easy to deal with.He walked into the office he was using here and sat down, the place was not as big as his o
First things first, he has to do something about Nicole's security, he couldn't bring harm to her, or her twin whoever it was knew she was his weakness and was targeting her, heck he didn't even know who he was dealing with, he just knew that he had to do something, he picked up his phone and dialed his chief security officer."Can you arrange for some men to be around my wife for the time being? And report to my office in the next thirty minutes, I have something to talk to you about,"He instructed."Yes, sir, it will be done and I will be on my way,"He responded and Rafael ended the call, he couldn't play with Nicole's safety, if the threats were for him he wouldn't have even given much thought to it, he has seen his shares of a death threat and stuff but Nicole shouldn't be dragged into it, Rafael went up into his office in the mind to wait for his security officer, he was there in minutes and Rafael told him everything about the call and gave the number to him and showed him th
"If I were you, I would swallow my pride and just call him,"Natalie said getting on her bed, Nicole pushed her away and got off the bed, she went to sit on her dressing chair and faced her sister who got back on the bed."I don't have pride and I am not calling anyone,"She responded. She wasn't going to do it."Yeah, this is the second week that you haven't heard anything from him after the way he showered you with attention for two weeks, I would be surprised if you didn't miss him so I understand, just call him already, you know you want to,""I don't know what you are talking about Natalie, I don't miss anyone and I am not calling anyone, don't try to show what isn't there, I am too busy to spend my time thinking about it missing someone,""Keep telling yourself that Cole, honestly, at this rate you might lose this man and end up regretting it, he is trying to make up for what happened, we are human and we make mistakes, realizing those mistakes and retaking our steps to fix it i
Well, the next morning, she woke, got ready to leave, as usual, it was Saturday but she had to go to work because she had a job that she wanted to do herself and she has been working on it all week, she got in her car and drove towards Del Cole, she noticed some cars following behind her but she didn't give much thought to it, after the last time, she had been careful but nothing of such happened again do she thought she must have mistaken.However, when she got to Del Cole, she discovered that the men, not just one or two, there were six or more of them, they were all wearing suits and looked like bodyguards, she wanted to ignore them but decided to ask since she was going to be at Del Cole alone."Hi, good morning, who are you please?"She asked, walking closer to the one that stood near the car."Good day, Ma'am, we are employed by Rafael Salvador to keep you safe, don't worry you can continue your day, we won't disrupt anything,"The huge looking guy said in a deep voice, Nicole b
Monday, two days after her confrontation with Rafael, Nicole went to work because she had to not because she wanted to, she had work that she couldn't finish because she had left when she had angrily gone back home, she would have gone to Aron's studio if she had been in a good mood but she wasn't so she decided to work in her office instead, she told one of the staff to bring a drawing board and the other things she needed to her office where she spent almost all of her Monday in, she only left when she had to eat lunch and then again when she had to go drop something off at the airport for an overseas client, she didn't want to bother anybody with it so she had gone herself, she passed by Rafael's office, looked up at it as she waited for the light to turn red, she could go there and talk to him, all she needed to do was make a turn but she didn't, she drove right ahead without looking back, when she came back to the office, she met Kris there, she was crying."Hey Kris, what's goin
