The Ceo's Addiction 41
It was the ray of sunshine coming from the window that woke Aiden up. He twitched his eyes and opened them. Aiden could not ascertain where he was, he wasn't in his room, and he was confused.He sat up, and that was when he noticed that he wasn't putting on any of his clothes. His eyes ran around the room, searching for his clothes."Oh shit!."They were littered all over the floor."Fuck!."He knew what he did, he must have found some bitch out there yesterday, eish!. And the bitch was nowhere to be found.After several minutes of trying to remember, he gave up and began putting on his clothes.Aiden walked out of the hotel room and stopped at the reception. He was looking at a man now.The man greeted him, "Hi, good morning."He dipped his hand into his pocket saying, "Good morning. Uhm..did you.." He sighed and paused, then dropped the tip on the counter and left.***The Smith's residence***Clara, Hayley, and Cora watched Fiona walk around the dining room as she asked the maidse

In the room, Aiden was very angry with Fiona. He was still trying to solve the problem between Kat and Nicole and she's bringing a wife to him?. What makes her think he wants to marry anyone?.The door opened and Dylan walked in. Dylan was disappointed, very disappointed at their mother."I can't believe what I'm just hearing?."Fiona looked from Aiden to Dylan, "I didn't kill someone, why are you both frowning?.""Mom…"Aiden called her in a loud tone."She is Dimitri's younger sister, how..how could you be so cruel?."Aiden was shouting, Fiona, got uncomfortable with the way he was yelling, she feared Elysia might hear them talking."Ssh. She might hear you.""I don't fucking care. If you think you can detect my life at this age, then try me and see. I can't believe you right now, instead of you helping me talk to Nicole's mother or even caring about your own granddaughter's feelings, you are keen on getting her a stepmom. I'm so disappointed in you."Aiden walked out in anger. Dyla

It didn't long before Kathleen's mobile phone rang again. She went to where she threw the phone earlier and picked it up.The caller was Dimitri Maxwell.She'd picked up."I'm at the hospital now, something happened to Elysia."Kat gasped, "Oh my!. How's she?. What happened to Elysia?.""I don't know. I got home and went to her room, she's nowhere to be found."Kathleen said, "I'm coming right now, give me the location of the hospital."…Clara saw Mrs. Fiona walked up the stairs and waited in the hallway. She was angry, and she was going to question Fiona on why she stabbed her in the back. Their plans were for Fiona to get her married to Aiden, not the other way round.Fiona stopped and looked at her, she tried walking past her but Clara stopped her."What is the meaning of this, Clara?."Clara scoffed and said, "I'd like to ask, Fiona. Do you think you can get rid of me by getting him a wife?. Or do you think I'll sit and watch you get rid of me so easily?.""Clara, you have no bus

Rushing quickly to the hospital, Nicole ran into her mother's arms and hugged her. Well, no matter how angry a child is towards a mother, there must be a connection. Aiden stood there, watching mother and daughter unite together.His eyes never left them and when they did, he was looking at the doctor who just walked out of his mother's ward.They all rushed him immediately.The doctor said, "She's out of danger now. You'll get to see her when she wakes up. Please don't worry."Everyone sighed in relief.Dylan looked at Aiden, "Welcome back."Aiden smiled at him and looked at Nicole. He was about to ask Nicole to go out with him when Kat said, "Can I see you for a moment please?."Alden nodded and left with Kathleen.Clara whose heart just skipped, was lost. Oh my god! what if she wakes up and tells everyone I pushed her down the stairs?. She was afraid, this would be the end of her game if it did happen.

Clara got down from her car, went to the back seat, and took out the nurse's uniform. She breathed out and searched for the packet of cigarettes in her pocket.Removing a stick, she leaned by her car, and lit it, then puffed out smoke through her nostrils. She smoked so profusely and that'd calmed her down after the long run. She thought she would be caught back there, it was a huge risk.After smoking from the stick, she threw it away and went down to the clothes on the floor. She lit the clothes up and stepped back. She waited till the clothes were all burnt before she went back into the car and drove off.***"Five injected amphetamine?. Where's nurse Lillian?."Someone ran in immediately, "Doctor, nurse Lillian fainted in the lab with a head injury."Everyone ran out immediately. Reaching the lab, Dylan saw that the doctor was a black woman, he said, "This is not the nurse that I saw in the ward a few minutes ago.""What?."At that moment, nurse Lillian blinked her eyes, and the n

"Three weeks?."Dimitri asked with his eyes open."What happened to our wedding? Our engagement party is next week."He stood up. Kat stood up too. He started leaving and Kat began calling him."Dimitri. Baby,"He ignored her and left.Kat sat down tiredly, oh she was tired. She was going through a lot. She had to take one step, a step that could destroy her marriage plans with Dimitri. But she can't leave her child. There's no way she was ever going to do that."Don't blame him if he can't keep up anymore. Dim has tried for you."Elysia's tiny voice told her, Kat looked up at Elysia, she didn't even know when she walked into the sitting room."And I don't blame you at all. You're a mother even though I never got to see one. I can feel the love you have for your girl. If you are waiting for me to advise you on what to do, I have nothing to say. I've washed my hands off your baby daddy." Elysia joked and they both laughed.When they were done, Elysia said, "I underestimated you before.

"Stay away from her and read your books."Nicole turned from the words she was memorizing to her mother."Mom, are you okay?.""I should ask you that. Why did Lilly's mother call me now?. Answer me,"Aiden walks in immediately."What is going on, Honey?."

What happened in high school that caused such insecurity?.That has been the question running through her mind."Mom, will I sleep at her place now?." Nicole tactically asked.

She ordered.Lilly and

"Nicole.." Lilly screamed, running towards her, she closes her locker and turned around."Xup, Lilly." She grumpily said.Lilly stopped smiling and asked her, "Why do you look sad?.""My mom disagreed, she'd asked me to bring you so she can see you."Lilly's face fell.Too bad."Well, my mom agreed.

When I was at her age, I'd never think of that," She finished and Nicole looked down."Who's this friend?, because I know you don't have friends," Aiden asked, making everyone look at him.

I shared in her pains and in her happy days. I never really cared if I lived for her but I am glad. Do you know why?. She is fine. She's okay. And her sorrow days are over now.""You're a good friend.

She snatched the binocular away and rushed outside.She viewed from the front porch.She didn't know this person.Who's this person?.She squinted her eyes and took a look again.That face?.What?.…...End of recapKathleen stood at the middle of the field, looking towards the direction of Clara in which she had taken in. She breathed out, watching her come closer. She'd thought that Clara was one tough girl who fought a million times after seeing lots of huge fighting men beside her, but she thought wrong, Clara was an opposite.A girl who had a silk skin, beautiful eyes and innocent looks. She'd imagined if she at all had left a prison. Clara was beautiful and classic and…"Wow..you look different." Clara cut off her thoughts with a strong voice.Okay, Kathleen underestimated her looks. She's really rude.Kathleen didn't wanna go round the bush but said in a very straight tone."Where's my daughter?."Clara smirked."Ooh. You've got some balls now. I didn't expect to see you.""You

She breathed out and didn't look at him.Aiden walks further and stands in front of her, but doesn't touch her.Aiden mumbled, "Okay, I'm sorry." He apologized.Kat looked up, in her eyes, he was tired. He wanted everything to end, it was like everything was not gonna ever end in his family. His family was never gonna be together and his enemies made sure of that."You don't have to apologize.."

She'd wished she found a way to catch her.Aiden bent down quickly, "I promise to get her out of the way, nothing will happen to you or our daughter." He sincerely stated.Kat shrugged."Do everything you can, Aiden."Aiden smiled and got up. He needed to shower and get ready for what is to come. He pulled off his w

"Kathleen, Kathleen…"Nicole called but Kat didn't look up. She was speaking to one of the maids in the kitchen, and Nicole was surprised.She walked into the kitchen and touched her and Kat turned instantly."I've been calling you, you seem not to answer."Kat was confused, "Call me?.""I've been screaming your name for like ages," Nicole repeated.It then dawned on Kat that she was called Kathleen, not Lisa."Oh my god!. I'm so sorry. I've not been acquainted with the name yet. You know I lived with this name for five years."Noelle nodded understandably."Aiden asked me to remind you of the doctor's appointment. He just left for his office now,""How could he just leave like that?, he was supposed to take me there," She said, frowning."It was urgent, anyway I could take you there and maybe we could catch up like old times, I will tell you about yourself to help you remember,"Kat smiled at Noelle, she appreciated her, "Thank you, Noelle. I'm very happy that you could help. I still
