Alice smirked, her stomach bubbling in excitement and anticipation as she hung up the call before turning back to her mother." Everything set?"," Yes, Mum, I can't wait", she cooed. Patricia grinned rubbing her hands together," I can't wait to take out my revenge on her"," Can't believe that nitwit, she dares tried to take what belongs to my daughter; who does she think she is?" Patricia said and scoffed, "She went into a fashion design company? She's so ridiculous, trying to take advantage of my daughter's husband"," Don't hate her choice too much mum, that is what provides us this opportunity, if she hasn't decided to start working this might not be so easy"," You're right," Patricia agreed and giggled, " thank you, Clarisse, for providing us this opportunity," she said, and they both laughed.Slowly, the happy expression on Alice's face wears off making Patricia feel concerned," Is everything okay? Why did your expression suddenly change "," If we succeed mum..."," When we
Kyle was humming his favorite song when, as he entered the Mortana's building, he headed over to the reception with his secretary, who proceeded to confirm their appointment when he saw her. The only woman that had been on his mind ever since the first time he set eyes on her, his only reason for coming to the company, she was right there, standing in the lobby and listening to a man; he couldn't help but stare at her. Her innocence frail face, her gentle little smile that could melt a soul, he was lost in her charm." Sir, we can go in..."," A minute", he said in a hurry and ran outside, he didn't want to miss his chance and when he saw her leaving the building, he immediately went after her He looked outside, trying to get where she went, but his instinct went for the left, which he took. He suddenly halted in his tracks when he saw her looking afraid, with some men in black obstructing her way. One of them made to move closer to her but Kyle immediately jumped in and wrapped his
The longer Christian stares at his phone at the details sent to him, the more his blood boils. His jaw was clenched, and his fist was tightened, but he maintained a col,d, blank face still. They finally pulled up at the Get-it-all gambling house.This was Cyrus first time of driving his boss to a gambling house and it was surprising for him. Just as they pulled over, their car was in between the vehicles that had been following them. Some men immediately jumped out of the car, all dressed in black suits and trousers with dark shades; one of them quickly came over to open the car for Christian, who charismatically stepped out of the car. The guards in front of the building were confused, a lot of people had come into the house but this was the first time they had seen someone with so much influence and a cold aura, the way he stepped out, dressed in his suit that is covered with a long grey coat, his hot and sexy features could not be ignored. A lot could be told with just a glance at
(13 years ago)Antonio struggled to carry the big basket of carrots, grunting as he carried it out of the farm while the farmers laughed and chatted as they kept working. He was almost out of the farm when he was startled by the sudden shout from the annoying and familiar voice. "Hey!", Anthony yelled startling everyone and drawing attention to himself, " what are you doing?", he directed at Antonio, looking so pissed," What does it look like I'm doing?" Antonio replied, eyeing him.He walked briskly to him and took the basket from him, dropping it roughly on the floor." Hey, you better don't ruin the basket and my carrots", the woman who owns it yelled," Didn't I tell you to stop coming here? You said you love to study and Mrs Zaira said she's going to enroll you, ain't you meant to be studying?", he yelled at him," Am I going to read on an empty stomach?", Tonio yelled back at him," I said I'll take care of it"," Who are you to say that? Didn't you also want to go to school "
(Same night Durbar was tortured)Clarisse had no idea how to go home, but she planned to call Christian once she got out of the company. Everyone exits, bidding each other good night."Good job to everyone today, Have a nice night everyone!", Suzanne said as she bid all her employees good night," Good night ma'am", they replied in unison," Should I drop you off, Miss Clarisse?" Suzanne asked.Hester rolled her eyes when she saw this gesture. Clarisse was about to accept when she saw Christian's car. She turned to Suzanne smiling," No, but thank you so much, ma'am"," Okay, bye", she bid her before entering her car.Clarisse jogged towards the car waiting patiently for her, smiling as she opened the door." Hey princess," Christian greeted as soon as she opened the car and got in." Hi", she replied," How was your day?"," It was great, I had a nice time and learned new things"," I'm glad to hear that." Christian nodded and gestured for the driver to drive.Hester scoffed as she w
" How is he?", Christian asked, dressed in his pajamas and ready to go to bed, " Barely walking after we dropped him", " As wanted. I need you to open a personal account for someone ", " Okay, sir ", " You'll see the details first thing tomorrow morning ", " Okay, sir", " Goodnight ", he said and hung up and then retired to bed. ************ Stella was anxious as she sat in the sitting room waiting patiently for her husband with the money he requested in her hand. She doesn't want to get beaten when he comes back but it was getting pretty late. She looked at the time one more time and furrowed her brow, " This is unusual. Is he not coming back home tonight?" she asked herself as she looked through the window, but there was no glimpse of Durbar, " maybe.. he's not coming home tonight?". She felt relieved; even though she was a little worried, she was glad that she would have a good night, so she proceeded to her room and retired to bed. **** Ashley sat before her
Clarisse grumbled as she was back to work the next day, running errands for Hester whom she's now sure that she loathes her. Clarisse was running errands, while Suzanne was calling on the company's heart for a meeting." Where's Miss Clarisse?", Celia asked Hester when the six of them had gathered and Clarisse was not present," I don't know", Hester lies," But you two were working together earlier"," I had no idea where she went," she lied again." Okay then, let's start the meeting", Suzanne said, not happy with the perception she was getting from Clarisse, a perception of her not being responsible and diligent." Good morning, everyone", Suzanne began, "We all know how the new contract we signed, we'll be producing outfits for a show Lye's cooperation is hosting."...Clarisse jogged back to the department and did not meet Hester," Please where's Miss Hester?", she asked one of the employees that was present," Check her at Miss Suzanne's office", the worker replied, and she hurr
He watched both sides before crossing the road with his grip around her wrist, pulling her along with him to the restaurant. Clarisse was short of words; she kept being dragged along, looking so confused and guilty. She felt so grateful for what he did for her, but she wasn't expecting him to come for lunch so soon; she indeed promised to treat him to lunch, but she had no savings account, nor did she have any money on her and Kyle wasn't giving her any chance to disagree.He sits happily opposite her and calls on the waiter." What would you like to eat?" he asked, grinning at her.Clarisse cleared her throat nervously, " First Mr. Kyle.."," Kyle, call me Kyle".There isn't time to argue with him; the waiter is here, and she has no money, " there's something I should tell you; why don't you dismiss the waiter first?" she said quietly to him." We can discuss whatever the matter is after eating," he said and turned to the waiter, ordering what he wanted, and asked Clarisse to state w
