Ethan rolled his eyes and exited her presence, walking in the direction of where he parked his car, which was just opposite the building. He got into the driver’s seat and did a few breathing exercises.

He started the car and took out his phone from his pocket, with the aim of buckling his seatbelt afterward, but he was distracted by the missed call notification he saw on the face of his phone. He had put it on silent mode while he was in the conference room.

It was his elder sister who called, so he decided to FaceTime her back.

Fedora picked up immediately, her face coming into view.

“Christ, Ethan! Where the hell are you?”

“What do you want, Fedora?”

“What do you mean by what do I want? You have been away for days and no one knows where you f****g are!”

“Where the hell are you? When are you coming back?”

“I don’t know!” he answered nonchalantly.

“You look lost, what the hell is going on, Ethan?”

“Can I call you back? I need some time alone,” he said, already regretting calling her

    Ethan rolled his eyes, not believing his elder sister was starting to make this be about herself again.“It is fine! I’ve got this. I will talk to you later.”“Okay, bye!”He waved, then ended the video call. The engine of the car was already on so he drove out of the parking area to the direction of his lodge.The moment Ethan was out of sight, Samantha rose to her feet, reached for some tissue from the tissue box on her table, then made her way towards the window, wiping tears off her eyes and at the same time trying to avoid her mind lingering on the conversation that she just had with Ethan.Samantha was brought out of her thoughts when a knock came through on the door.She turned around, hoping it was not Ethan. But again, she thought that if he was the one, he would probably have barged in and not knocked.“Come in,” She answered with a cracked voice.The door opened and her bundle of joy ran in.“Mommy!” The little girl ran towards her where she stood and hugged her legs tightl

    “So what is the way forward now?”“Wait, you said you saw the little girl? Did you approach her or something?”“No, I did not. I could not move my body or breathe well when I saw her. I can’t explain the feeling that came over me. I suddenly felt weak and numb.”“I am glad you are feeling all the emotions that you hardly feel. Hopefully, it is going to bring you back to your senses.”“Your action sucked, you f***d up! What is going to be the way forward?” Greg asked again.“I do not know!” He answered, filling up his glass cup with some more wine.“I know that tone in your voice but I want to believe that I am mistaken.”“You are going to work things out, right?”“I do not know, Greg. You should know me by now. I am really f***ed up. I try to mend situations but I end up ruining them.”“Ethan!!”“What?” He groaned.“You do not want to apologize. That is why you are coming up with these silly excuses.”“Stop making up stories, Greg.”“I am not making up stories. I know you and I know w

    “You all need to stop taking my love life seriously. Kelvin and I ended it and please do not ask me why. Or wait, I will just give you a brief summary so you do not think I am being too irrational.”“There is this girl. I think a receptionist on the ground floor. Holy sh*t, I can’t believe I am already into office gossip.” She massaged her temple, making Lara chuckle.“I don’t even know her or her name. I just discovered her today. Apparently, she is into Kelvin. She heard about our date last night and came to warn me to stay away from him.”“Unfortunately, she met me sitting on Kelvin’s lap so….”“Holy sh*t, that must be so bloody!”“You cannot imagine!”“I am so sorry about that. And what did Kelvin say?”“He was really pissed! I told him the whole thing is over and I want nothing to do with him.”“And before you start supporting him, you know how triggered I am by office drama? I really want nothing to do with him anymore and I made that clear already.”“That is so sad. I was serio

The people she trusts most in her life.Deciding she was going to make this weekend worthwhile, Samantha made her way to the bar area, and reached for her favorite bottle of wine and a glass cup.With the items in her hand, she proceeded to her bedroom and went directly to her adjoined bathroom.She positioned the bottle of wine and glass cup by the counter, and prepared a bath which took a few minutes because she wanted the right temperature. Once that was all set, Samantha undressed, put her clothes away, opened the bottle, and poured some wine into the glass cup, putting both items by the stand beside the bathtub.Remembering something was missing, she dashed into her room naked and reached for her t

    She stopped what she was doing and turned around to face him. “That was nothing. I was just carried away. I feel absolutely nothing for you. Let that sink into your head and get the f*k out of my house.”“I think we have gone past the stage where we both have to be in denial.”“You may say otherwise but your eyes do not lie.”“What now? You can read my mind by looking into my eyes? What are you again? A soothsayer?”“Don’t do this, Samantha. We are not going to get anywhere by going back and forth!” He said with a pleading voice, trying to direct his eyes to her face and not her naked body. He could not believe this was what he had been missing all this while. Her body has changed so much and he loved it. She now had well-defined curves in the right places which appealed to him the more. The thought of her belonging to another man or another man touching her was sending so much jealousy to his heart already.”“We made love and it was good.

Call me whatever you feel like, feel free to be mad at me but I am brutal when it comes to my daughter’s safety.”“Then I think I would have to go the brutal way too!” He challenged.Samantha frowned, folding her arms, “What do you mean?”“The plan was to come, and apologize to you, thoug

    Blake had always been a breast man. He loved his women curvy, and Samantha had always had that curvy body, but seeing her after five years, he couldn't help but think she was now insanely sexier. He knew the birth of their daughter had really done good to her.“Do you only think about sex?” she spat at him as his eyes lingered on her chest.“I’m hardly sane whenever I’m around you.”“Please stop it! I’m sure you say that to every woman you come across.”“You know how much I hate it when people take me for granted. I don’t struggle to get what I want, but you have made me totally insane just because I want us to get back together.”“I will endure if this is what it takes to have you again.”“Stay away from Ashton and every other man. If you don’t, I give you my word that I am going to ruin them.”“And before you start denying it again, I’m sure you don’t want me to remind you of how well I know your body.”“God, I missed you so much!” Blake buried his nose in her neck once more, inhalin

    His eyes darted at Samantha and he saw that she had cleared her plate. She was sipping her drink from the glass cup and she looked extremely calm, as though nothing strange happened“Can I have my phone back?” She said, placing her glass cup which still had some drink in it back on the tray.“Why was Kelvin calling you?”“Why are you asking me? How did you expect me to know? You were the one who answered the call.”“When will you stop being brutal to me?” He said, looking deep into her eyes.“When you leave me the hell alone.”“That is not possible! You should start getting used to me.”“Stay the hell away from Kelvin Block him and never speak to him.”“He is my colleague.”“Avoid him!”“I will speak to someone. If it is possible to employ more people so you will not have to work closely with him.”“That will be a waste of time and effort because I can still see him and f uck him if I want to.

    “I swear if I find out that you have been maltreating her, you are going to pay dearly for it. I won’t care if I love you so much; you are going to pay dearly for it because nobody messes with my blood,” Ethan said to her at the top of his voice, meaning every word that came out of his mouth.“Wait! Do not tell me that she is with that gold digger?” Ethan did not have to mention his name before Mary knew that she was referring to Ashton.“God, help me not to murder that man!” he mumbled, running his fingers harshly through his hair.“Australian laws are really strict. You are not popular here, and trust me when I say there is no way you are going to escape punishment no matter who you are! If you lay a finger on Ashton, then be ready to face the law by killing an innocent person.”“She is not with Ashton? Then who is she with?” he glared at her.“It is none of your business!”“Of course, it is my damn business. I am her biological father!”Victoria shook her head. “There is more to be
