By the time they got to the last floor,Tristan was exhausted and he sat down to rest but Eugene still stood on his feet,he could climb many more stairs today if it meant he gets to meet Leah King.A young man approached them with a smile on his feet.“You must be Eugene Moore,pleasure to meet you,I’m Josh,Miss King Secretary.”Josh introduced.“This way,please…”Eugene helped Tristan to his feet and then the both of them followed Josh.“Wait for me here.”Eugene said to Tristan.He noticed that his palms were sweaty and he couldn’t understand why he was nervous to face Leah King.He had met people of higher status than her but he didn’t feel nervous but meeting this woman made him feel quite uneasy.Possibly because she had disrespected him so much.Josh knocked on the door and a female voice came from the inside.“Come in.”Josh opened the door and Eugene walked in.He swallowed,discreetly and tried his best to look calm and collected.Leah was sipping wine and watching them from the r
Tristan was surprised to see his boss looking crestfallen when he came out of Leah’s office.“Is everything okay,sir?How did it go?”Tristan asked,curiously.“I…”Eugene was still so confused and he couldn’t even explain how he was feeling.He didn’t blindly just start defending Hudson Home,he had asked Jessica if the allegations were true and she assured him that they were all made up stories.But after listening to the proof that Leah King had,Eugene didn’t know what to believe anymore.*******Leah walked back to her office,Valerie quickly walked up to her on wobbly legs.“Oh Ma’am,I was so scared.I often see Eugene Moore on TV,this is my first time seeing him in real life.He is like a greek god.I’m sorry,I know I couldn’t hide my nervousness but I tried my best,are you disappointed?”Leah smiled at her.”It’s okay.You did well.”She then handed Valerie an envelope.”For your service.”“Oh my!Thank you so much,Miss King.Thank you.”Valerie felt so grateful.She never expected to make thi
When Eugene returned home,he was furious!“Welcome home,sir.”His housekeeper,Rosa greeted but he didn’t answer.He marched up the stairs,angrily.“What happened to him?Did he have a bad day at work?”Rosa asked Tristan.“Kind of but someone is fooling with him.”“Fooling?Why?”“It’s a long story,Rosa.Don’t worry about him.He’ll be fine.”Tristan grimaced as he stared at Eugene who was still marching up the stairs.He had a smirk on his lips as he wondered why Leah King was messing with him.An angry and confused Eugene made his way up the stairs.One of the his maids hurried up to him.“Sir,Miss Jessica,your father and his wife are here.”Eugene sighed suddenly feeling an headache.The Moore family house was a large estate.They all had their own villas inside the estate.His father and Sarah lived in one.He had his own,as well as his grandfather.But because of how close the Villas were to each other,his father and Sarah always came by his.It was bothersome sometimes.“Where are they?
Jessica’s teeth clenched when she heard that.“Why would he defend her like that?”She wondered.She thought Eugene despised Leah.He was supposed to hate everything about her!What was going on with Eugene!“I still can’t wrap my head around why Eugene suddenly refused to help us.He was more than determined to help us.What changed?”Jessica couldn’t understand it either.She had heard about how Eugene consistently went to JK group.He was literally doing everything he could to help them out.But after seeing Leah King today,he suddenly changed his mind.And why did that fucking woman has to have the same name as his ex-wife?Was he meant to always meet women called Leah?!“Enough of these,Asher.I believe things would get better for our family when Jessie finally marries Eugene.He loves her.He’s going to marry her.”Maria comforted her daughter.”We should focus on getting our company back to its feet for now.We need to look for someone to blame for all of these.We are going to pretend w
“Hello…Eugene,are you there?”Brad glanced at the screen and realized that the call was still connected.A few seconds later,Eugene’s voice came through,his voice sounded so low that Brad had to strain to hear.“Are…are you dating her now?”Just as Brad was going to answer,a sharp scream came from the restaurant.Brad recalled that Mia was still in the restaurant and knowing Mia,she would definitely make trouble with Leah.“Eugene,I’ve got to go now.We’ll meet up tomorrow.”“Where are you right now?”Eugene asked,curiously.“The restaurant in JK hotel.”With that,Brad hung up and headed into the restaurant.He was shocked by the scene he met.Mia looked a mess as her two hands were held down by Leah.Leah was also pressing her head onto the table.She was like a police arresting a criminal.Brad had been worried that Mia might hurt Leah but it seemed there was nothing to worry about.Mia was getting completely dealt with.He smiled as he stood on the spot and watched the fight.“I’m goin
“Put me down,Eugene.You’ve already hurt me enough.”“I didn’t mean to.Let me just take you to the hospital do you’ll get treated.”He said,heading out of the hospital.“I can’t get there myself.Put me down.”Bradley caught up with them and he added.“Put her down,Eugene.She doesn’t want you to carry her.”“Get lost!”Both Eugene and Leah said at the same time.Bradley swallowed and kept his mouth shut.**************At the hospital,Leah was taken in for examination.Eugene and Brad were waiting at the hospital.“How could you hurt her like that?Were you seriously trying to break her hand?”Brad shot at Eugene.Eugene sighed.”It was an accident.I didn’t mean to hurt her.And you,what were you doing at JK hotel?How do you know that she works there?”Eugene asked,curiously.“I went there for a meal and happened to run into her.I initially caught sight of her unloading some goods so that was how I figured out she works there.I wonder why Jason lets her do such hard work.If she were mine,I’d n
“Take me home.”Eugene said to Tristan.Right now,he just wanted to sleep.This day has been very exhausting.As Tristan drove Eugene home,the passed by the atelier shop of last night.“Stop the car.”Eugene quickly said to Tristan.Tristan stopped the car and Eugene got out.The old tailor was ironing some clothes when Eugene walked in.She was surprised to see him.“It’s Leah’s husband.”She began,heartily.“I don’t care how much you charge me for this.I just want you to help me fix it.”Eugene opened the box with a frown on his face.“Oh my God.It’s ruined.”The tailor exclaimed.”What happened to it?”“It’s a long story and it’s all my fault.”That was the only thing Eugene could say.“Oh,Leah spent so much time learning how to sew and then making this shirt for you.”The tailor shook her head,sadly.“This can be fixed,right?”Eugene asked,half hoping and half doubting.“I don’t think so.Even if I can patch it up,it won’t look as good as before.”“Please just try anything,do anything to m
Bradley walked into his house and sat on the couch.He thought about the day’s event and how possessive Eugene was of Leah.It was pretty clear that he has feelings for Leah even if he didn’t want to admit to it.Bradley valued his friendship with Eugene a lot.He didn’t want to have a fallout with Eugene.He honestly thought Eugene felt nothing for Leah and that was why he didn’t mind pursuing her.But he could see that Eugene felt something so he had to give up on Leah.But how does he get her out of his mind.After thinking for a while.He decided to hit the club.*********Brad was having a drink when his cellphone rang.Glancing at it,it was Caroline...one of his numerous ex-girlfriends.He dumped the phone into his pocket.She was too clingy and he didn’t want to see her right now.He shook his head.He didn’t want to think about her right now.But he needed someone,someone to help him forget about Leah.He pulled out his cellphone and opened Tinder.***********"This is a stunning h
