Megan had taken the quadruplets to the hospital for their immunization with the help of Elite. She will be taking them to the park too and after wards to the shopping mall.Hilary had asked her to shop some new clothing and few toys for them too after they must have finished at the hospital. Megan finds this as a nice idea to leave the house and have some outdoor fun with the babies.Since she births them, she hasn't got the chance to go out since she was advise to take much rest and the doctors had placed her on diets for few months. The reason is for her stitch to heal faster without any complications on her.All these had to hinder her from going out, she had the chance to do things on her own since Hilary forbids her from doing anything.“… The maids are always available to help with whatever you want and since Elite is personally assigned to you, I see no reason why you will stress yourself… ”Hilary had told her the night she returned from the hospital.Megan had wanted to make h
Just when she thought he didn't see her, she felt a large hand grabbed her by her left wrist. “Where did you think you are sneaking too, huh…?” His voice was cozy and the same it sounded husky and straight. Megan felt goosebumps all over her skin. “Huh…?” She badly wanted to say something, but her voice failed her. ‘Why am I finding it difficult to blurt out words?’ “Now it seems like the talking tom have her tongue-tied, finding it difficult to say something. Eh?” Damon said with a taunting smirk. This is alone to make her pissed off and angry at herself. She badly wanted to shout at him and scream for him to let go off her, but she just couldn't due to the fact that she is having vocal failure. She knows he will be convinced she is afraid of him, or perhaps she has fallen prey to his charm, maybe it's rendering her useful. That is, if it does to other ladies too. But on the second instance, she isn't other ladies. She is just her. She hates being vulnerable, she hates it when o
Spilling the truth might be the hardest thing she has and will ever do, since she's sure the truth will be coming with huge consequence. She doesn't think she can face the consequence that will be coming with it.No, she can't just risk it, or can she? She knows without her telling the truth, she will keep battling guilt inside of her every time.Most especially when she sees Damon with the quadruplet, the guilt, for sure, will keep building up again.If there is anything Megan hates, it's living with guilt. But now, it seems she will start getting used to living and battling with it. “What? What's up with that face of yours?” Damon's voice was loud enough to break the train of Megan's voice. “Why that look?”“What look?” She asked in a casual voice, not wanting to sound broken.“You've been staring weirdly at me for some moment now, are you sure you are very much okay? Did you need my help with something, but seems too shy to ask?” For the first time, he wasn't wearing his usual gri
Damon doesn't know why but he could feel anger in her voice, is she really angry at him? His little rose is annoyed at him…? He shrugs his shoulders and head to sit on the couch. Perhaps he has gone farther than he should have, maybe that's why she is angry at him. If he continues being irrational, he might only provoke her bad side, just like he is about to. Mere staring at her, he knows she is capable of not doing much when she gets angry, she might just decide to snub him and pretend like he does not exist. That, he does not want! How will he be able to tease her if she keeps ignoring him? He can't risk it, he knows this. Elite heard her being called as she came running down, she did her best in ignoring Damon, not sparing him at least a glance. “Help with them. I need to take them to their room.” Megan told her, earning a curt nod from her in reply. “We can just reschedule the movie to some other time, I don't think we can continue for today.” Megan muttered, sending Damon a
Megan was sure to maintain many feet from Damon, she did her very best in avoiding him. Eye contact, conversation, and anything related to it that might bring the both of them together.Damon was not daft or blind to notice this cold feet from her. Just to make her wish come true and respect her decision, he seldom visits Dwayne and Hilary with the excuse of business trips and tight schedule.Dwayne and Hilary did not argue much with him since they are no way better, the career centered. They only thought that he had changed and had tried to get more serious with work than he was at first.But fate has it own way of working and arranging things out…It's been almost five years or more since Megan birth the quadruplet, they've grown to look up to her as their parent since Dwayne and Hilary are barely around.Megan mastered the habit of playing the father and mother position in their lives, and she always makes sure to be there when she is most needed or not.The atmosphere was a little
“Where do we go from here, Kids?” Megan asked with her arms akimbo. “Home? Or we have some fun on the way first?”“I'm already getting tired from today's activities at school already, let's go home.” Miguel murmured, but his voice was audible enough. The rest of the kids gave him a weird stare. “What? Why that look?”Arielle twitched her lips, eyeing him. “You are the only one tired after doing almost nothing since today, the rest of us aren't. We will have some fun before going home.” She uttered in disagreement.“Eh! You still want to have fun after the sports at school?” Miguel asked with surprise. “I'm short of words.”“Don't worry, I've got a better solution for you.” Jade said. “You can just stay in the car while we have the fun to ourselves, how about that?”“Yes, I agree with Jade. It's not a bad idea to stick to.” Nell nodded in support. “You can choose to stick with Jade's advice or join the train of fun, your choice, though.”Megan could only watch them in silence as they d
It was past seven before Damon showed up, the kids were already waiting on his arrival but since he did not show up early, they indulge themselves with something else.They have finished packing whatever they think were important and had to do some baking with Megan to pass away time with.Damon, as usual, blared the horn of his car loudly just to announce his presence any time he visits.“That's uncle Damon, I guess. He is the only one who announce his presence with loud horn.” Arielle chuckled, as she quickly stuffs in pancakes into her mouth.“Why are rushing on it? You might get choke that way.” Megan cautioned her. “Don't try that again, okay? You should know it's a very bad habit to do such.”Arielle nodded her head with a pout. "I was only rushing, so uncle Damon is not gon' get angry that we aren't ready yet.” She uttered childishly. “He hates delay.”“Why will I be angry at my little cuties, huh?” Damon asked, as he strutted towards them. “I can't get angry at you guys, you s
“You see…?” Damon shrugged his shoulders. “I did not just eat, the children offered me since you already told them it's mine. Why will I reject such awesome from them?”“You…” Megan trailed off, unsure of what to say.Megan was really short of words as she stared at them in disbelief. These children have so much audacity, just like their dad! How could they just offer him the pancakes in her absence?She isn't sure of whom to direct her anger at, the kids or Damon? She can't just get angry at the children, they are only young and Damon on the other hand is not at fault too, he was treated as a guest by the kids.She let out a sigh as she wiped the crumbs hanging at the corner of Arielle's lips without saying anything with the paper napkin on the table.“Come on, kids. Get up now and let's get going. We will wait for uncle Damon outside until he is done with his pancakes.” Megan said as she gestures for them to get up.“Are you angry at us?” Miguel asked out of the blues on their way o
Months has passed since Stella left Rhett and he could not wish for any thing else. With Stella finally leaving him holds a lot of interpretation to him, it was more than a relief.Truth be told, the first few weeks without Stella was bored and he felt empty but he dreaded the wish of having her back but soon enough, he was able to adapt to it.Rhett spend the months alone, burying himself with works and more works. He was not the same hard and temperamental boss he used to be any more and felt more good in himself having a good relationship with them.He is barely seen leaving his seat till the day was over except for if there is a board meeting for him to attend, if not that, he never leaves his seat.The day Megan had paid him a visit and invited him to her wedding, his feelings for her was different. It was far different from lust or love and he loved the feelings a lot. If only he has realized it sooner..."I see no reason for you to decline my invitation coupled with the fact t
By the time he got home, the kids were already in their room and then he went to meet them inside. "Hey kids..." He called out for their attention and they all rushed to him. "Dad..." They hugged him passionately and they could noticed that he has something to tell them. "What's that Dad?" Jade asked after they had disengaged from the hug. "It sees you've got something to tell us, spill it out." "Yeah, right..." Damon admitted and nodded in agreement. "You should guess who is here, kids." The kids were confused, someone has really came to visit them? They are not really good at guessing but they have to try this time around, who could have visit them today? "Is it Tatiana?" Arielle asked with smiles on her face, she could barely think of any other person than her old friend. "Nope..." Damon shook his head in disagreement earning a frown look from Arielle. "Jason's Mum?" Nell questioned hoping his guess was right but was disappointed when Damon said no to him too. "You kids sh
The silence was deafening as it hang awkwardly on the air. It seems like the two humans opposite each other were being forbidden to utter even a single words.Damon's face was bent as his eyes were strongly fixated on the files on his table. He badly wanted to talk to her, to say some thing to her —any thing!His heart ached as his feelings were growing faster again for her, his mouth yearn for him to confess every thing to her —every thing he ever felt for, without holding back or hiding any of it from her.But then he can't! The thought of him holding back breaks him more than ever and clearly enough to make him go crazy and nut.The lady before him wasn't the same Megan he know —no, she turns out to be a different version and total opposite of her.He vividly remembered the first day they had met and had called her by her name but then..."Megan..." He called her in his oh–so–calmed voice, stopping her abruptly on her track.She turned towards him with an innocent smile on her face
Rhett continue to stare at Stella wondering how and why she had did it. How could Stella have done some thing so despicable like that.For all these years, he had trust her not knowing she is just a wolf in sheep clothing. Had Stella not told him that Megan was having extra affair outside the relationship and he had foolishly trust her knowing full well that she is Megan's friend and will not lie on her? Stella was feeling uncomfortable with this unusual stare that Rhett is giving her. He had never gave her this kind of look and Stella did not know why he is doing so now.He had left the office quite early this morning after they had a lively conversation. Although, Rhett never told her where he was going even when she asked him severally.But now, ever since he returned, he had not say a word to her rather, he was just staring at her with boiling rage. "Rhett..." Stella called since she could no longer bear the silence and weird attitude Rhett is putting on. "What exactly is the p
"Hey there, Meg..." Rhett hailed casually with smiles in his face unsure of the right word to use for her. "It's so good to see you after all these years." "Hi, Rhett. Its so good to see you too." Megan reciprocated although without smiles. "Maybe, though." "To be sincere Meg, I really looked for you after the day you chased me like a pest from your house." Rhett told her, rubbing his palm together. "But each time I keep coming, I always find the door locked and I usually don't get the chance of seeing you too. I really looked for you but all my efforts proved futile. It produce no reward or effect but yet, I never gave up on searching for you until the day we meet at that board meeting." Megan leaned her back on the chair as if she's enjoying the conversation which she is not. She know Rhett won't leave if she did not comply with him. Yeah, she have to act in accordance with him for today. "And what would you have done if you have find me then, eh?" Megan questioned in a demandi
"So what were you saying when we were at the car pack earlier?" Rhett questioned. "Now I can hear you with my full ears." "That question should go to you, Rhett." Stella told him in reply. "That question is not meant for me but you because you are the one asking me about her." "I know so." Rhett nods slowly. "But then you have not given me a positive reply." "Come to think of it Rhett, why would you be asking me of her. Do I look like her keeper to you or am I the one who had invited her to the board meeting." Stella was visibly angry and Rhett know so. "Your answer seems suspicious." Rhett told her. "I just asked you a simple question but you flared up as if what I was asking is a prohibition." "It is indeed prohibited if you did not know." Stella replied almost yelling but was wise enough to control her self. "And have you forgotten the punishment she deserves for hindering your clients from patronizing you any longer. Are you now going to back off all because the firm owner
Immediately the meeting had come to an end, Stella walked out hurriedly as if was probably heading somewhere or maybe there is someone already waiting outside for her and she need to see the person as soon as possible. She did not bother to wait for Rhett who was still talking to some business partner inside the conference hall. "I need to talk to her as soon as I can before Rhett would notice." She said to herself as she wait endlessly for Megan. Just as she was tempted to check what's keeping Megan in for so long, she saw her walk out of the hall all alone. "It just work on my own favour. She's coming out alone and I like the fact that she is." Stella smile wryly as she appeared at the front of Megan giving her that mischievous grin of hers. "Hey there, Miss Starks..." Stella hailed but yet, Megan is not that daft not to have noticed the sarcasm laced in Stella's word. "Good to see you again, I guess so." Megan did not have the time to exchange words with Stella –it would be
Could this really be her? Rhett doubt it but then, the secretary had just mentioned her name as Miss Starks and that is Megan's surname and he knew so.Could this really means Megan's owns the new firm which has been hindering his clients from patronizing him any longer.If truly she's the owner, then will he still go ahead on investigating and punishing the firm owner? He know he can't do such not when the firm is that of Megan's own. But where have she been all this while and only to return and then built a currently rising firm which has also be the talk of the town too.How could she have possibly done this in just a few time and yet, he never got the clue that she is already in town. Rhett never knew Megan to be this clever such in a way that she would have built such a firm in just a short period of time. "That means we should not underestimate any one no matter the position we find them." Rhett conclude within himself as he watch Megan take her seat and the new Megan seems
Rhett sat impatiently waiting for Stella who seems not to be coming anytime soon. He had asked her to meet him since ten minutes ago but she is not yet to come. He was tempted to call her but he changed his mind again. "What is even taking her so long to arrive." Rhett wonder. "And she is aware of the board meeting we are attending. But yet she is taking ages to arrive here." After what seems like eternity to Rhett, Stella walked him giving him that lustful smile but Rhett is in no mood to reciprocate. "Hey there, Rhett..." Stella greet walking closer to him to give him a slight hug. "Your face looks gloomy, what's wrong with you?" "Just take a look at the time, Stella." Rhett said ignoring her question. "You are already fifteen minutes late to the time I asked you to arrive." "Chill dear..." Stella smiled at him as she sat on the table next to Rhett. "It was not my fault that I am late. And besides have I ever came late or disappoint you before." "Then why did you do so this
