Anita stares at Liam in disbelief. "No, you cannot do this to Temisa. Temisa will be heartbroken," Anita says to Liam as she moves away from him. "I know. I never proposed to Temisa, and I am sure she will understand. It was all an arranged marriage between my parents and hers, against my consent, and I cannot marry a woman I don't love," Liam responds to Anita as he sits in one of his guest seats and swirls it to face her. He smiles and picks up the blue wine bottle from his desk, opens it, and takes a gulp directly from the bottle. Anita wonders if the wine is alcoholic, questioning if that's what's causing Liam to say all this to her. "Maybe you're drunk," Anita suggests, to which Liam laughs, looking handsome. "I am not drunk. The wine is non-alcoholic. Would you like to taste it?" Liam asks Anita, a smile spreading across his dark face. "No!" Anita quickly responds. Liam smiles and drinks from the bottle again, still gazing at her face. "Actually, it's you I want," he
"I have to go now; it's getting late," Anita says to Liam, wanting to change the conversation as she feels uncomfortable staring at his bare, chiseled, broad chest. "I can drop you home," he offers. "No... I..." Words fail to come out of Anita's mouth, and Liam holds her left hand, asking her to sit back down with him. "Seriously, you haven't done it with anyone?" he asks again, not believing her. "Yes," Anita replies, meeting Liam's gaze. He chuckles at her response. "Why are you laughing at me? You've slept with a woman, right?" she asks him. "Yes, I mean, I told you I had a girlfriend before; what did you expect?" Liam admits. Anita's face twists in jealousy at his words, and he notices. "Well, I don't have a boyfriend. I have to go now," Anita says, but Liam continues to hold her hand. "Can I be your boyfriend then? I would feel honored to be the first man you're with." Anita stares at Liam in horror, and he stands up to meet her gaze. "I'm serious," he says, and before Anita
Chapter warning!.--Anita stares at Liam. She cannot push him away as her body betrays her and obeys his every touch, as whatever he does to her seems to wake something in her, and she feels her center dripping wet to have him plunge into her.Liam kisses her, and she holds him and kisses him in response too. At that point, she forgets that he's her best friend's fiance, and she's ready to have him.Liam parts her legs open, and she awaits him to plunge into her.Liam positions himself above her, and he kisses her center with his rod, slightly rubbing his shaft on her center. He stares at her pretty face, and he leans forward on her."This will hurt a little; are you sure you want this too?" He asks her, and she nods and kisses him, losing control of her sanity as the man in front of her is too handsome to resist. Liam presses himself on Anita, and she shrimps and clings to him as she exhales deeply.Slowly penetrating her walls and. breaking her bridge, Liam crosses over and enters
Mr. Taiye meets Silas on the ground floor, and he speaks to him, "Come, let's be going."Mr. Taiye knows Liam likes his secretary, but from what he saw on the CCTV footage, he's speechless and doesn't even know how he will confront Liam about his escapade with his secretary, as he feels his own forehead sweating, remembering the hot scene.As Mr. Taiye doubts he can say such to his wife either, he frowns and sits in the back seat of his Lexus SUV, and Silas drives him home with a bodyguard sitting at the front.When Anita steps out of Liam's restroom after he opens the restroom door, she feels utterly embarrassed after his father has gone.She heard when Mr. Taiye was questioning Liam about what he was doing in his office.Anita stares at the office wall clock and sees that it's almost 9 p.m. "Oh my goodness! I need to go home now," Anita says as she quickly searches Liam's office for her pant."My pant, I didn't see it before? Did you see it?" As she searches Liam's executive office
Mrs. Tonia knows Anita is lying to her about misplacing her phone, as she knows when any of her daughters are lying.She wonders what truly kept Anita so long in the Benson group. She doesn't want to put pressure on Anita to tell her the truth, so she walks to their dining to sit.Lisa walks straight into the kitchen with Flora, Flora is now determined to learn how to cook.Mrs. Tonia sigh as Lisa and Flora both stepped out of the kitchen and served their dinners on the dining table.It was bitter leaf soup with some wraps of fufu to swallow with it. As they sat around the dining table, preparing to eat and likewise waiting for Anita to step out. Favour asked their mother, "Mom, shouldn't we be eating? When Sis Anita steps out, she can eat hers?" Mrs. Tonia shakes her head and replied, "No, let's wait for Anita." Just then, Anita steps out to the dinning, wearing a sweater and using her cap to cover her head and neck. As she walks to the dining room to sit on her usual dining seat
Liam wakes up the following morning, remembering all that happened between him and his secretary. He sits up on his bed and finally rolls out, just then, he hears a knock on his sitting room door, making him walk towards the door to check who's there knocking. He opens the door and sees his father standing in his black business suit. "Good morning, father," Liam greets. "Morning," Mr. Taiye walks into his son's sitting room and sees Liam still in his night robe. "Are you just waking up, son?" Mr. Taiye asks as he stares back at the wall clock displaying 9:20 a.m. and at Liam, who stands behind him. "Yes, father," Liam responds, and he walks to his milk-colored couch and sits on it. "Actually, son, I came here to discuss with you and remind you that we will be visiting Temisa Patrick and her family today." "Hmm," Liam subtly frowns, and Mr. Taiye takes a closer look to meet him, as he's already fully dressed in a black suit and black shoes, and he sits across from Liam on his next
Anita contemplates whether to answer the call or not, as she feels sadder, as if it were a betrayal, and she finally picks up the call as the phone rings out again. "Hello, girlfriend, good morning," Temisa says in a much happier voice, and Anita sighs and manages to respond, "Good morning." "What happened? Your voice seems to be low," Temisa asks, noticing the sadness in Anita's voice. "I'm fine. How was your night? I saw your missed calls," Anita nervously asks. "Yes, about the missed calls. Actually, I've been calling you since you went picking up. I want to ask you about your father; how did the court case go? " Temisa asks. Anita sighs heavily and responds. "Mother says the court supreme extends the judgment date, but we're allowed to see him now, unlike before," Anita responds, trying not to sound sorrowful. "Really?" Temisa asks happily. "Yes," Anita manages to reply, and Temisa sighs. "What happened? Why're you sounding so sad?" "Nothing.. Hmm, I'm just waking up," Anita
Anita nods and waves to Lisa to leave, as she was still on the phone call with Alfred."I heard that," Alfred says, and Anita finally laughs, feeling better."What did you hear?" she asks him."Your sister's response, of course, that breakfast is ready, and you still don't want to invite me?" Alfred asks, and Anita finally stands up from her bed, feeling her center aching and throbbing from the past hurt Liam inflicted on it."Sorry about that, come and join us for breakfast," Anita finally invites Alfred.."Thank you. Tomorrow, I will be expecting you. Should I come to pick you up?" Alfred asks as he wants to end the call."Hmph, no," Anita responds."Why?" Alfred immediately asks her."Nothing. I just want to follow my mom to our new apartment. I will come and visit you once I'm done with them," Anita says, not wanting to tell Alfred that she also wants to go visit her father in the police station."Okay," Alfred responds, and he finally ends the call.Anita sighs and keeps her phon
Liam doesn't say anything as he stands watching the two friends reunite and forgive each other. They finally stand up, and Temisa walks over to see the twin babies in their little baby bed in the living room."Wow, they look so much like Liam, but my baby resembles me more than Alfred," Temisa says, while Anita only smiles at her."It's all good, girlfriend. I wish you both a happy married life, and I will be your bridesmaid on your wedding day," Temisa proposes, and Anita shakes her head."Flora already filled that position. You will only join the train.""Okay, dear. I have to be on my way now. You know I just darted out from the house as soon as Alfred told me about your babies and that you're here with Liam. Take good care of yourself, girlfriend, as you look slim," Temisa says, while Anita nods to her."I will. Let me escort you," Anita feels all the previous heaviness in her heart disappear, and she walks out of the mansion with Temisa.They walk to the garage where Temisa's car
Mrs. Tonia quickly greets Mrs. Juliet, "Good evening, ma'am.""Yes, welcome. Let's go in first," Mrs. Juliet ushers them into her living room. Just then, Mr. Taiye walks in too and sees the visitors, noticing Liam carefully carrying a baby in his arms. He recognizes the familiar lady as his son's secretary and immediately knows the babies are the result of the encounter they had in Liam's office."Good evening, Father," Liam happily greets his father. Mr. Taiye nods to all their greetings, while Anita nervously stares downward, feeling uncomfortable, remembering Mr. Taiye had warned her to stay clear of his son and never show her face in his company again."Mother, here are your grandkids," Liam walks over to meet his mother, who is sitting on the living room couch. He carefully places the baby boy in her arms, and Mrs. Juliet is still in shock as Liam never told her his secretary was pregnant or that he was bringing his babies home.Mr. Taiye is the most confused as he remembers he w
"Are you married?" Liam finally asks, sounding hurt. Anita shakes her head and replies, "No.""Then how come the babies?" Liam asks as he finally saunters over to meet her. He has missed her so much, and he doesn't look himself because of her."Anita," Liam finally approaches her, and she turns to face him, and he sees she's crying."I'm sorry," Anita cries, and Liam crosses the thin line between them and hugs her warmly."It's okay. I've missed you. I do love you," Liam comforts her in a hug, hoping whoever got her pregnant or married her doesn't step in and catch him hugging his wife.Anita wants to pull away from Liam as she inhales his cologne, realizing she's crying into his chest, but Liam hugs her tighter and raises her chin to face him."Don't you miss me?" he asks, and Anita sniffs."I do," she replies."And you don't want to kiss me or welcome me?"Anita finally raises her head properly and looks up at Liam's face.He looks sick too, so unlike him, and his beard is overgrown
Anita doesn't say anything as she watches her mother dress up in a green gown while she breastfeeds her little daughter, who sucks a lot, wanting to drain the remaining energy she has left."I have to go out now and buy everything we will need to eat tonight. There's no food in the kitchen, and I don't want to disturb Mama and her in-law.""Okay, Mom."Anita watches her mother walk out of the room. She carefully places her little girl down and walks to her phone to see all the text messages Liam sent to her. Her heartbeat increases as she unlocks her phone screen.She sees a lot of texts from him and love emojis and she smiles, staggering backward to sit on her bed to read his texts."What happened to you? Your mom said you got discharged from the hospital. Are you alright now? Not to worry, I will be coming down to your village to see you. But why did you shut us all out? I have really missed you. Honestly, I cannot stop thinking about the love we made, and I'm glad your mom finally
Mrs. Tonia pulls away from the mother-to-daughter hug and stares at Anita's face."It's okay, stop crying. Why did you run away, and who did you sleep with?" Mrs. Tonia questions as she walks to look at her grandkids.She stares at the two cute babies who are also awake and staring at her. She gasps in surprise as she isn't mistaken—the babies look so much like Liam, the CEO of Benson Group. She stares back at Anita, who’s also looking at her, and then back at the twin babies in their baby bed."Anita, who got you pregnant?" Mrs. Tonia asks again while Alice finally walks over to hold her hand."We can discuss this at home. Let it rest while we leave the hospital first."Mrs. Tonia sighs and looks from Alice to Anita and back to her grandbabies.They're so cute and fair, and now she knows why the CEO has kept on asking her about Anita.So he's the one that got her daughter pregnant and slept with Anita the very day he delayed her at work and made her return home late.Mrs. Tonia tries
Anita wakes up that evening with a light headache. She sits up in her bed and eats the dinner Alice brought for her from home."How are you feeling now? You need to breastfeed your babies and not starve them," Alice says. Anita finally looks at them as her eyes clear, and seeing one of them crying, Alice speaks to her."She's a girl, while the calm one here is a boy." Alice hands over the baby girl to Anita, who stares at her beautiful daughter's face.Her baby girl looks so much like Liam; even though she's very fair like her, her baby's short curly hair and round cute face resemble Liam so much. Anita's heart skips a beat as she keeps staring at her baby instead of breastfeeding her."Why are you still staring at her? Give her your breast milk" Alice finally yells at Anita, snapping her out of her daze. Anita opens up her shirt and breastfeeds her baby.The little girl in her arms stops crying after a while as she sucks on her breast. As if the second baby is aware, he resumes cryin
"I know," Liam replies and smiles back."But I still miss Anita and want to see her account," he says."Tell me the truth, boss. Do you just miss Anita, or are you in love with her and have a crush on her?" Temisa asks, and she sees Liam smile, which already answers her question."Just send me Anita's profile name. Let me search for her first.""Okay, I will," Temisa replies as she sits up properly."What about Alfred?" Liam finally asks her as he sees her sit up."He's not yet home. You know he runs the hotels and club too, cheating on me," Temisa pouts."He's not. He complains about you starving him," Liam tells her, and Temisa gasps."He said that? I know Alfred is so shameless," Temisa replies, and just then Alfred returns and walks into their room, as they both use one room together. Even though the room was his before she moved into his family house. His mother had insisted they must share a room together as a couple, and he clearly heard her call him a shameless man."Who are y
The line goes still for a while."Which sister are you talking about?" Barrister Jude asks."Oh, I just remembered I have her number, as her husband's case is with me. Mrs. Tonia, of course. Don't you know your sister again?" Mr. Collins questions."Oh, you mean her daughter is in the village? Which one?""I don't know her name yet, but she's white and very fair. She just gave birth to twins, making your sister a grandmother now.""Oh! You mean Anita?" Barrister Jude asks."Is that her name? Well, I don't know. I'm just seeing her for the first time now. Let me contact your sister then. I forgot I recently got her number due to her husband's case."Mr. Collins quickly ends the call, not giving Barrister Jude any more chances to question him. He cannot believe the silly man didn't want to help his in-law because of some past silly stories. He had to pity Mrs. Tonia and helped her case as he used to admire her when she hadn't married Mr. Joshua."Hello," Mr. Collins stands outside the h
Liam stares downward, not wanting to meet Mrs. Tonia's angry gaze, as he suspects she knows about the night he made love to Anita, but probably doesn't know who exactly slept with her.Was that why Anita left? What's really going on? he wonders."Actually, ma'am, I heard from her friend that she's going through a lot, and I don't know if I can help, but perhaps that will make her return.""Help with what? Just leave!" Mrs. Tonia shuts her door on Liam, not giving him a chance to speak.Did Anita's boss force himself on her? Mrs. Tonia wonders as she walks back to her parlor.Staring at the man, she sees him as a calm person with good moral upbringing, but is he the one that slept with her daughter and also bit and sucked on Anita's neck?If only Anita had told her the truth before she left, she wouldn't be rude to him, but she cannot help it. She behaves rudely because she misses her daughter so much.Liam leaves the building and walks back to his car.He knows her mother suspects him
