Charles got to hear the report from Stevo that he was being followed by some men, and he later heard that it was Nancy's new boss's men who had tracked him down to the poor town where he lives with her.Charles stood outside Nancy's room door in the passage and smiled to himself as he continued to wonder why CEO Jerry had sent his bodyguards to find out about him.Even before Charles moved to the poorly looking town that he chose to live in, he had the town secured. Some people even had to move out on their own as they were still wondering why the security presence had increased in their area.Charles smiled again and soon saw Nancy step out from her parlour door, walking out to the passage to meet him.Charles knew that Nancy was oblivious to the fact that he was 'Charles'. Being a poor man didn't really suit him at all.Charles walked over to his power bike to start it, and Nancy joined him on the bike. She sat nervously behind his back, and Charles gave her the second helmet to wear
Nancy closed from her office work for the day and stood up from her office seat as she set to leave for home. She packed up her handbag and her phone into her bag after switching off her computer.Just then, Linda walked onto the fourth floor as she stepped out from the elevator. She went straight to Nancy's transparent office to see her, wanting to know about the new relationship Nancy had with the delivery man who brought her to work daily."Sophia! Sophia..." Linda stopped Nancy as soon as she walked out from her office and into the hallway. Nancy was taken aback to see who was calling her name. She stared up at Linda's face, not expecting to see her on the fourth floor."How may I help you, Miss Linda?" Nancy asked, wondering what her enemy now wanted from her. Nancy knew that Linda was jealous of her when they were on the seventh floor together, and now Linda was back on the fourth floor to disturb her again."Sophia, I want to ask you something. What's your relationship with that
CEO Jerry was speaking to Nancy, and he saw that she wasn't even listening to him at all, as her mind and face were rather on the delivery man who was happily chatting with another staff.CEO Jerry hated Charles due to his handsome looks, as CEO Jerry had seen how most of the female staff of his company were publicly crushing on Charles. He thought to place a restriction ban on Charles and to warn his security men never to allow Charles to cross his company gate again or step a foot into his company.CEO Jerry even noticed that Nancy had been staring at Charles and Linda too, as she wasn't even listening to him at all, and he finally asked Nancy, "Miss Sophia... I have been speaking to you, and your gaze is totally on your house neighbor?""Uh." Nancy was shocked to hear CEO Jerry's statement to her, and she couldn't remember telling anyone else except Linda that Sunday is her neighbor, and she wasn't in any relationship with him either."Yes, that's because he's waiting for me and for
Charles waited outside for Nancy to step out from her apartment again. As he didn't see Nancy stepping out, he knocked on her apartment door again and walked inside to check on her. It was already 10 minutes past 8 am, and yet Nancy wasn't out."Miss Sophia," Charles called her by her second name. Just then, Nancy walked out from her bathroom, tying only a white towel around her chest. She hadn't expected to see Charles in her living room, which was connected to her bedroom. She hadn't even locked her bedroom door, and there were no curtains separating the living room from the bedroom, as she hadn't rearranged the apartment compared to her former house.Nancy almost lost her grip on her towel and blushed in embarrassment as she met his scrutinizing gaze. Charles immediately said to her, "I will be outside waiting.""Okay," Nancy replied, and she hurriedly went to have her breakfast.She knew that she couldn't go to work hungry. Before she could finish up in her room, it was already 8:3
"Mr. Sunday!! Mr. Sunday!!" Nancy called out to Charles for attention just as he wore his helmet and was about to start his bike to leave. But as he heard someone scream out "Mr. Sunday! Mr. Sunday!!".Charles raised his head and looked at the person. He saw Nancy running up to meet him, so he drove his bike towards her.Nancy stopped running when she saw Charles start his bike and drive off. She thought he didn't want to give her a ride. However, when she saw his bike finally approach her and come to a stop in front of her, she smiled sweetly and apologized, "Good evening, Mr. Sunday. I'm sorry I didn't know you were around. I didn't see you in the building when I stepped out."Charles switched off his bike engine, took off his helmet, and gazed at Nancy's pretty face as she smiled sweetly. She apologized, and he knew it wasn't her fault. He told her, "It's not your fault, Miss Sophia. It seems like your boss doesn't want me to pick you up anymore."Nancy frowned and asked, "Why?""Ne
"No, not Loretta," CEO Jerry replied, and Arya said, "Alright, Mr. Loverman. Forward the man's photo or anything that you have to enable my boys to track him, and I will send the update to you.""Alright, sis, thanks. I know I can always count on you.""Bye," Arya Lucian answered, and the phone call with CEO Jerry finally ended.CEO Jerry stared at his phone screen for a while and thought to snap photos of Charles when next he gets to see Charles around his company, as he knew that Nancy couldn't quit working for him now.++++Nancy and Charles finally arrived home late at the house where they live in the local town. Nancy smiled sweetly at Charles as she finally stepped down from his bike and said to him, "Thank you for the ride.""You're welcome, Miss Sophia. So tomorrow we will be traveling, but by noon, so that you can have enough time to rest," Charles said to Nancy. She kept smiling at him as she admired his shining scalp and replied, "Okay."Charles stayed beside his bike as he
Mr. Tobe noticed Charles present, but as he wanted to greet Charles, Charles totally ignored Mr. Tobe and walked back silently into the passage. Mr. Tobe then told Nancy, "A fight broke out in the restaurant today, and many of our customers had to place their orders online as they were scared to come to the restaurant to avoid being involved in the fight."Nancy got worried and asked Mr. Tobe, "I hope you're not hurt? Is it still safe to work at this hour?"Mr. Tobe shrugged and replied, "I have to work to support my family, and it poses a risk going out daily, but all is well, and I will be careful."Nancy thanked Mr. Tobe for the meal he bought for her personally and blushed sweetly at him. She stood aside and watched him start his bike before he drove off.Nancy happily turned to walk back into the passage and saw Charles standing at the entrance door, staring at her.Staring at her neighbor named Sunday Christian, Nancy felt he looked so much like Charles with that deep frown settl
Charles would admit that he loved the meal, but after hearing Nancy praise another man in his view, he commented, "It's manageable. Don't worry, we are going to my uncle's house tomorrow, and I will ask the cook there to prepare something special for you."Nancy frowned as she was sitting so closely with Charles on her couch and told him, "You're lying to me. Why do I feel that you aren't happy that Mr. Tobe brought the meal for me? The reason you don't want to admit that the food is sweet and you ate more portions than me."Charles smiled as he knew that because he sat closely to Nancy, his appetite grew much, and coupled with the fact that the food was sweet, he indeed ate much. He commented, "You're right. I'm not happy that he brought your dinner as I wished I was the one...""Hmm," Nancy frowned as she looked at Charles and subtly pushed him away to go away from her on the couch. She told him, "Go away, Mr. Sunday. I don't like jealous men. And Mr. Tobe is a nice man, and you appr
The following morning in Logan Marlon Residence, Charles stayed with Nancy in her bedroom and did not want to go back home to his family house again. He assisted Nancy in going for her weekly medical checkup, and Senator Logan and his wife didn't complain; they only smiled at Nancy and Charles.Over the weekend, after spending a full week in Nancy's family house, Charles finally spoke to Nancy's parents in the living room. He told them that he would be taking Nancy with him to his family house after registering their marriage the previous day.Senator Logan didn't protest; he was rather happy that Nancy and Charles were together. He blessed their union and said, "I'm glad that my daughter is with you, as it's what I wanted from the very beginning. May the Gods of our land continue to be with you both and bless you with beautiful children.""Amen," Charles and Nancy agreed and finally left the mansion. Mrs. Olivia stood outside the house, emotionally hugging her daughter as she didn't w
Nancy looked up at Charles' face in disbelief and told him, "You are lying to me. I saw photos of you and Arya together.""No, we are not married, and seriously I have sent her away. I only took those photos because of my mother, and Arya had the audacity to publish them with captions like 'My husband and I,' but I'm not her husband, and I never touched her. Believe me."Charles cupped Nancy's face with both palms, and it seemed to Nancy and Charles that they had totally forgotten that Nancy's parents were still in the living room watching them too."I'm sorry," Charles apologized to Nancy again, and he kissed her on the lips, while Senator Logan and his wife gasped in surprise, looking at each other unbelievably.Senator Logan couldn't believe that Nancy was truly pregnant with Charles' child. He hadn't asked about the pregnancy before because he didn't want his only daughter to run away from him again. It made no sense to him that he was caring for orphanage children and other poor f
"Open the gate, I'm a delivery man sent here to deliver this package to Nancy Marlon. Is she inside?" Charles asked the two security men that stood outside the huge black gate and stared at him suspiciously. One of the two security men replied, "Bring the package here, and we will examine it and have it delivered to Lady Nancy.""No, as I'm to deliver it to Nancy directly, just tell her that her Sunday is here to see her," Charles said with a serious look on his face. However, the two stubborn security men refused to move as they insisted on seeing the package first.Charles was angry that the two security men were wasting his time, but he knew they were only doing their jobs. He brought out the food flask and showed the content to the two security men, and they finally allowed him inside after seeing his cold, frightening aura.Charles parked his bike at the frontage of Nancy's parents' mansion, and he was nervous as he stepped down from the bike and walked up to press the doorbell...
Nancy walked into her bedroom and it was neatly arranged and tidy as if she hadn't left the city before. She sighed and walked up to the bed to sit as she was very tired.She thought of telling her family the truth that she had a relationship with a man she was in love with in City X. She knew her parents would be mad at her.Not wanting to spoil their already happy mood upon seeing that she had finally returned to the city, Nancy decided not to tell her parents yet about her pregnancy. After her bath in the bathroom, she went downstairs to have dinner with her parents.Mrs. Olivia Marlon could visibly see through the light nightgown that Nancy wore that Nancy looked pregnant. But she didn't want to ask her daughter about the man her only daughter got involved with in City X.Nancy sat on the dining seat made available for her, and after her dinner with her parents ended, she stood up from the dining seat and bid her parents good night. They kept staring at her, and she finally went ba
Charles heard from Stevo that Nancy had left the house she was living in with him and had gone back to her grandmother's house. He felt very emotional about it and realized that he had lied to Nancy about his true self. She was blinded by her love for him and couldn't see that he was Charles Alejandro.Charles was in his hotel when he received a report from his men that Arya Lucian had been monitoring Nancy's family phone calls and had found out that Nancy was on her way back to AJ City.Charles immediately left his hotel and went back home to the presidential villa. He had been away from home and didn't want to see Arya or his parents, only showing up for functional events.Upon arriving at the white house, Charles immediately grabbed Arya by her right hand as she sat on the couch with his mother. Arya had been smiling sheepishly, knowing the evil plot she had arranged for Nancy's return.Seeing Charles storm into the sitting room, where she was with First Lady Kira, Charles grabbed A
Nancy was finished mopping the seventh floor when CEO Jerry stepped out of the elevator and walked into the hallway to meet her."Well, well, well, Sophia, I can see that you really choose to suffer instead of agreeing to my terms and becoming my woman," CEO Jerry looked at Nancy angrily as she wiped her lips and stared up at his face."I already told you that we cannot date," Nancy replied, wiping her lips again, feeling the urge to spit out."I don't love you or want to be in any dual relationship with you. I still love Sunday, and I believe he will be back soon," Nancy said, and CEO Jerry laughed scornfully."Be back soon indeed. Sunday isn't coming back here; he's already married, and it's a pity that you choose not to believe that he's Charles Alejandro. But he's Charles, and he isn't going to come back soon. So just forget about him," CEO Jerry scoffed.Nancy didn't say a word, and as she wanted to walk away with her mopping bucket, CEO Jerry grabbed her hand and turned her aroun
Nancy left CEO Jerry's office sadly and went back to the Human Resources office to meet with Mr. Brian, as it felt like she was starting her work all over again in the luxurious company. And from their terms and agreement, her monthly income was still the same, but only that she was now a cleaner in the company. Having to sweep the company premises, staff offices, and wash the company's dirty toilets too, alongside other cleaners that the company had before.Nancy felt it was all a joke, and she couldn't tell her grandmother that she had been subjected to work as a cleaner in Jeffery Holdings.Her pretty blue eyes welled up in tears as she was given a new vest to wear to signify that she was now a cleaner in Jeffery Holdings.Most of the staff working on the fourth floor stared at Nancy sadly, and they wondered what she did wrong that would warrant CEO Jerry to demote her to a servant level in Jeffery Holdings.Some whispered, "I thought they said she's dating the CEO.""She's too pret
Nancy's heart broke into pieces as she truly saw that Charles Alejandro is Sunday. She shook her head and screamed out, "No!! I cannot accept this. Charles is not Sunday, Sunday is not Charles.""It's okay, Miss Sophia. I will give you some time to get over Sunday, and hopefully by next week, you can give me your response if you still want to date me or not. That will determine my next course of action," CEO Jerry said as he kept his phone back into his trouser side pocket. He walked away and said, "Bye Sophia. You know that I'm already used to calling you Sophia. Take care and think about my proposal to you. You wouldn't want me to reveal your true identity to my sister, right? The choice is all yours to make."Nancy stood silently and watched CEO Jerry finally walk away from her.Nancy broke down in tears in the hall and finally went back home. She couldn't believe that she had been with Charles all this time, had an affair with Charles, kissed Charles, and even hosted him in her bed
"Hello Sophia," CEO Jerry spoke first, and Nancy replied, "Hi, good morning.""Good morning, how are you doing today? Hope I didn't wake you up from sleep?" CEO Jerry asked. Nancy replied, "No, sir.""Okay, so when can we meet today? Or do you want me to come to your house?" CEO Jerry asked. Nancy replied, "No, sir, I will come to see you in the afternoon.""Okay Sophia, I will be expecting you," CEO Jerry said, and the phone call finally ended.Nancy sighed after her phone call with CEO Jerry ended. She looked at the phone screen for a while and finally went to put it away.Nancy went to prepare her breakfast and after she was through with her day's work.Later in the afternoon, Nancy contacted CEO Jerry to send the location of where he wanted her to meet with him. She left her house and went to the location.When Nancy got to the restaurant first, CEO Jerry arrived and told her that he needed a private place to discuss with her and to show her the photo evidence that Sunday is preten
