In his heart, he knew that something was definitely wrong. Hurriedly, he pulled off his blind fold only to find a completely strange woman laying naked on top of him. He became dark as he looked at his naked body.His immediate action was to push her off him with force “Who the fucking hell are you? Oh…..you are a dead woman for laying your filthy hands on me “ he shouted while climbing down the bed in a jiffy.The state of shock that he was in couldn’t be described.“You know you are being rude. Have you ever heard where escorts reveal their identities? I was hired by you for the night “The strange woman just said lazily.Wesley clenched his fists irritably.He grabbed her neck and started squeezing it darkly. The woman gasped for air . “Let go of me, idiot . If anything happens to me, the police are stand by. Don’t think that I didn’t come here unprepared. I know the likes of you who think that they could just dispose of us after using us “She said and Wesley breathed heavily b
“How can I apologize to you when you don’t even give me a chance? Anyway, you can do anything that you want with me but I am not giving up on you. You can even kill me but I must fight for you. “Wesley was in deep thought trying to make sense on how things have changed so fast between them. The funniest thing was that Paula hasn’t even tried to call him to find out how he was doing. His mood darkened on recalling that she was the reason that made him break Caroline’s heart. If she hadn’t come back with fault promises of love then he might have just stuck with Caroline. Perhaps, he would have discovered his true feelings for her.Someone knocked on his door and he almost jumped out of the bed knowing that it was Caroline. No one else knew the room that he was in except for her. He thought.With a smile on his face, he unlocked the door while calling Caroline’s name only to see Luke standing with a smug smile on his face. He searched his side but there was no sign of her.“Oh…...it is
After she heard the door being closed, Caroline was sure that it was just the two of them left. She turned her face around and met with the surprised eyes of Wesley. He looked like he had seen a ghost for real.“Mr. Storm, you seem to always follow me around. How can I help you” She asked coldly as she played with her pen between her fingers?Wesley rubbed his eyes and looked at her intensely “Caro…..I don’t understand . Wh….what are you doing here ?” his voice trembled as he tried to make sense of th situation.“Are you blind? Please look at the tag name on the table. I am the one who owns this company that you are so bent on acquiring. Does everything that has got to do with me attract you that much? “His eyes stared at Caroline’s name written boldly on the desk. She was the director and founder of the company. While, he thought that his wife was a naive little fool, she had built a company that he had been eyeing for years.“How did you do this?” he whispered.“It is my little
He was filled with rage and yet when he held her, he couldn’t help but soften. How could he explain to her that this was simply business and that whatever happened between them had nothing to do with his desire to acquire the company?“Caroline, stop all this nonsense. I am tired “he whispered in her ears before she pulled her hands back.“Rule number one, don’t hold me again” she said as she pushed him back roughly. Then something occurred in her mind. She had been meaning to ask him about this from the moment he showed up in her house but things happened fast and she forgot all about it.“Why are you stalking me?” Caroline asked.“Because you are the love of my life. ” Wesley answered with tears in his eyes.“The word love means nothing to me. It is for fools” she snarled and walked away.Wesley had no choice but to walk out of her office looking distraught. He has failed to get the acquisition and as things looked, Caroline has no intention of ever giving her company to him.He w
It has been hell for a whole decade not knowing what happened to her after her mother’s death. Now that she is back, he was going to be the best man in her life.“Yeah …. they are going to put up some resistance but I believe in you. I know that you can handle them. Besides, I will be right here if you need me “Jack looked adorable as he touched her cheeks softly. Caroline blushed.Who wouldn’t when the most gorgeous green eyes were looking at them?May be, just may be if Wesley would have been half a man like him, she wouldn’t have lived such a lonely and sad life.“Thank you for understanding. “ At least he gave her a glimpse of what to expect. She wasn’t going to walk in to a den of lions without proper preparations.“Let me treat you to a dinner afterwards. I will accept that as your gratitude “He said cheerfully with a little bit of flirtatious smile. Even though, she didn’t want to socialize at the moment, she couldn’t refuse him. It was only a harmless dinner. No commitments
“I think that it is clear to me now, what we need to do is vote democratically who is going to manage this company. The constitution states that even if the heir is available, we still have the obligation to vote for the right CEO with satisfactory qualifications. I doubt if she could ever match up to Larry.”“Agreed, I think that we should vote “Hosea, the design manager added while nodding his head.Caroline just sat staring at them mysteriously and dangerously. She didn’t know that her father had a bunch of idiots as the directors. Who did they think that they were?“Okay…you guys want to dismiss her just because she is young. Branding her as a divorcee and a single mother. Don’t you think that is nepotism? Larry you are a serial cheater and most recently you were beaten by one of your lovers.” Barry, the new business development directors wasn’t a man who liked trouble. He saw Caroline as his daughter who needed to be mentored and protected“You imbecile. I will fire you right no
He knew that Caroline banned him from coming to her rescue but what he saw on the little camera that he set up on the boardroom was depressing. without thinking any further, he had stormed out of her office and came to the boardroom.Sam knew that the man was a devil who he couldn’t afford to joke with.“Mr. Baron, I was only raising my hands.” His voice trembled.“Doesn’t look like what I saw. “He glanced at his assistant and ordered “Miguel, kindly ship this idiot out of the country. Take him to the worst country ever. If he comes back, chop off his legs “he said coldly as the other men shivered.“Please forgive me, Mr. Baron” he literally cried like a little boy yet there was zero nothing that he could do to change the man’s decision.Jack turned to Caroline whose face was expressionless. “Are you okay.”Caroline smiled and took him aside “I would have handle him but thanks. Can you wait for me outside? I think that the meeting is about to end “she said calmly.“I have something to
“She is just going through a crisis now but I promise that she is a very bright and bubbly girl. All that she needs is patience so that she could get used to the new environment. “Caroline stated. she wasn’t going to tell the teacher about her divorce. It wasn’t her business.“Well….in that case, I hope that she gets well soon” the teacher said as Caroline walked to her daughter“Sweetheart, why do you look so sad? don’t you like your new stool?” I love your teacher, do you love her too?” she asked while she brushed her blond hair softly.The girl glanced into her eyes with an empty look.“Mommy, would you take me to my daddy? I need to see him. I miss him so much. There is so much that I want to tell him” Angel’s innocent and sad voice made her shed a tear. Her baby girl shouldn’t be going through all this.As the teacher looked at their interaction, Caroline guessed that she had figured out what was going on but she couldn’t dwell on that. Angel needed her moreCaroline hands cradl
“Caroline, you are trading on a thin line. His wealth belongs to me and I don’t know how you managed to acquire them but they are the one thing that I will fight for to the end. You will regret ever crossing me, bitch,” Paula said as she tried to stand up. Her knees were already hurting.“Did I say that you can stand up? officer, hand me the charges that I brought against them. one more mistake on your part and I will sign the papers. You will be kissing the bright sunlight goodbye. I am not ‘in the mood of joking with the two of you right now.”“Alright, we will do as you say but please get us out of here “Jane said looking genuinely afraid. Paula on the other hand couldn’t stop the tears from rolling on her face.To her surprise, the tears on her face were real this time round.Her mission was accomplished. All that she wanted was to intimidate them and make them afraid so that they can tell her the truth about Wesley’s whereabouts. That was all that she cared about. Anyway, she wo
“Don’t believe them. You will get in to trouble “Megan warned desperately.However, she knew that Caroline was someone who was decisive. Once she has decided on something, there was no turning back for her“I am not afraid of them. what I don’t want is for them to hurt Wesley when I am capable of helping. If they are trying to trick me, then I will comfort myself that I tried my best. Hold on for the time being for the marketing director position, I will try to find someone as soon as possible. If I can’t find the right person, then I will handle that department responsibilities myself.”As soon as she finished talking, she took her bag and quickly excited the office” Call me in case of anything “she shouted back.“Is she really coming? I feel so disgusted with this place. I can’t stand the smelly room. My face and hands are swollen because of the beating that we got from that man. Mum, I can’t stand staying here any minute longer. Please do something. “Paula shouted.Despite their nu
“Oh …...I am so fucked up. Please come back, Wesley. I can’t bear to lie any more to Angel. “Caroline thought silently while looking at her daughter.“Baby, you like asking so many questions. Well, I am not nervous. I just have a lot in my head and I am trying to sort them out in my mind. I do it a lot lately and I am so surprised that you noticed. ““I always know everything about you, Mommy. In that case, you should relax a bit. Don’t force things, they will fall in to place by themselves. our teacher taught us that when we want to learn something new, we should go slow on it “ Angel was right anyway. She was dealing with so many things and it was best for her to take it slow. Otherwise, she will go insane.“I love you baby, your words mean a lot to me “she pulled her in to her arms and then kissed her hair tenderly.“When you feel down, I am here for you, okay. Angel loves you so much. I made a promise to daddy that I will protect you and this is exactly what I am doing. You have
“Wesley …she repeated again sounding hysterical. Her eyes were darting from place to place just to get a glimpse of the figure that she just saw. However, the man was nowhere to be seen. He had vanished in to thin air just like Wesley. could those two be related?It took her almost an hour to search the ground floor where he had disappeared to. When she realized that she wasn’t getting anywhere, she sat down on the couch to rest her legs. At this rate, she wasn’t sure if they would actually heal properly.She laughed at herself depreciatively as tears flowed on her face freely. She must be running mad for real. She saw Wesley laying on the bed unconscious. What more evidence did she need to see that he was in a coma?why was it that she thought that the strange man was Wesley? He could be just any body using the same brand of cologne as Wesley. That cologne wasn’t a custom made one.She just realized that she had stayed in the mall for so long and it was already dark in the night.
He clenched his fist not knowing what to do. No matter what sort of nonsense that his mother will come up with, he will never leave Caroline. She can forget about it for all he cares.“Then make me understand. I have been asking you all these years but you refused to tell me, mother. Do I deserve this ill treatment from the woman who gave birth to me? Mother, I only wanted you to love me and be there for me. I have missed you all of my life and all that I need is for you to be on myside for his once. I need you to love the woman that I have chosen. I am already having a hard time trying to make her fall in love with me and you are not making things any easier for me.”Agnes ‘s eyes clouded with tears. It wasn’t her fault that things happened in the way that they did. she genuinely loved Jack and it was the most difficult decision that she has ever made in her life to turn her back on him“Alright, don’t be that sad, honey. I will tell you but I am not sure if you are ready to hear t
She never got the Chance to meet her in the past. Caroline actually couldn’t remember much of her childhood. When she asked, her mother told her that when she was around four years, she was very sick and lost her memory.However, her mother was understanding and told her that she didn’t need to force herself to remember. One day, things will come back to her naturally.But after all these years, it was beginning to bother her. She wondered what was real and what wasn’t real in her life.Caroline understood well what was going on. She was so stupid to have agreed to accompany Jack to meet his mother. How could she think that she would be accepted? “Maybe, it is not the right time for me to meet your mother. I am sorry but I will just leave.”“No …stay. Mother, can you be nice to her just for today only? Let us just mingle, we will sort out whatever is bothering you later. Please, don’t spoil this chance for me “Jack begged.Caroline bowed her head in shame. she couldn’t believe that Ja
“I understand Mommy. Just try your best and I will bake a cake for your coming birthday. So, I am going to hang up because I have to cook with aunt Monica. I love you…...kisses.”“Bye sweetie, I will see you soon” she said and sent her kisses over the phone.“Is that Angel? I can accompany her to school. I don’t mind at all. We can pretend that I am her dad only for that day if you allow me “Jack suggested.Caroline thought for a while. It made sense if Jack would come with them because Angel already met him and she liked him. It wouldn’t be a big deal if they told her that Jack was covering for her dad who couldn’t make it in time.On the other hand, Jack was only trying to get closer to Angel because he knew that she was her mother’s soft spot. If he could make Angel love him, then he was sure that Caroline won’t be left behind.“I accept. “Caroline said decisively“Well…..with that settled . I have a surprise for you. Our date is fast approaching and you know we have to be ready
He had left intentionally to give his daughter some space to settle down and chose which direction she wanted her life to take. He had no intention of ever coming back home until Caroline was married to Jack. He had his own secret reason for wanting the two to end up together.“Who the hell touched my girl? “He asked with a cold voice.“The damn police were careless, they let Paula Owen manipulate them but I have already taken care of Paula and her mother. Also, the hospital director was involved. He just ignored the chaos knowing very well that there were bullies hired to torment Caroline “Jack added.“Buy the hospital and make the damn director disappear. No one messes with my little princess and live to talk about it. If I were to come there, I will burn the hospital to the ground. I could care less if it is the biggest hospital in the North city.” The man threatened impatiently. “Anyway, make sure that no one bullies Caroline ever again. Remember that you have to do everything
“I am tired of fighting, Jack. Everything always fires back on me. Perhaps, it was time for me to accept my fate and just be who I am supposed to be. I feel so cold. “ Not even the warmth that he was giving her was enough to take away the cold from her bones. The man removed his coat and covered her with it before hugging her again. “Don’t talk any more. Let us leave this place at once.” The man whispered as he rubbed her body with his hands but still, she was shaking. Jack lifted her in his arms and hurriedly left the cell. She let him carry her because she was too weak to refuse his help. Her legs were swollen and she guessed that she wouldn’t even be able to walk alone. “And here comes my hero. My viewers, I would like to make something clear to you all. I was there on the day of the accident and I have been following the whole story closely. I have in my hands the police report and it clearly states that the car was in perfect condition. “ “The brakes were working well before
