On getting to the address, Liam wasn't sure if he could ever believe that Theo lived in a mansion like this. He stood all around the place but couldn't find any human beings, beings as desperate as he was he decided to wait until someone showed up at the place. Liam sat outside the house, receiving the cool breeze of the place just as he waited. He slowly fell in love with how peaceful the place could be. Besides that Liam had to think of a way to make Theo give him what had happened between them, he just couldn't get his mind off Theo.Sooner than later, a lady came out from the house and saw Liam sitting on the floor right in front of the gate. She approached him only to notice that she had not seen his face ever before and wasn't sure if he was a friend of Miss. Alice or Mr. Theodore."Hey, Greetings young man, how may I help you?" She asked as she got to where he was sitting. Liam at first watched the lady speak, he wasn't sure of what to think of right now. With a confusing expre
Valentino watched Alice swing her hips as she left his house, he didn't know how and what to feel or think."What the f**k" was the only thing he could say, he was not sure if he should be angry or happy that Alice made him feel that way. Valentino sat still for a while. He tried so much to control his orge of dragging Alice back and kissing the hell out of her as a lesson never to play with fire but he had to avoid creating a scene, shook his head off the thoughts of her. He was only sexually attracted to her because had not been there for years now and didn't know what he was missing. At least that was what he thought."Boss, you should start explaining who the damn hell is she" Dominic couldn't wait to hear what was going on from Valentino so he started soliciting him once again immediately he saw Alice was out of panorama and his queries brought Valentino back and out of his thinking. He stood up and commenced going up the stairs to his office knowing wholly that Dominic was going
There was a moment of silence after Alice had mentioned about the dinner with the Fax family to Theo. At this point Theo was speechless, he glanced at Alice for a while before getting his voice back."Will you be in attendance?" That was the only question that could come to Theo's mind right now. He wasn't ready to think because it would only turn out to be disastrous considering his current state of mind."Not having dinner with the Fax family is the deal No she said Hillary Holla was going to be in attendance as well, my question is, As What? Why should he be there?" Alice was quietly regaining her thinking, she knew Theo wouldn't have the perfect answer to her questions but she had to ask them out even though not to Theo."Wait, let's get things straight. Your mom called to inform you that you are being invited to a family dinner party with people that don't even consider you one and that Hillary Holla, that dickhead, will be in attendance? Right?" Alice nodded her head in response
STILL ON THEODORE'S POV.Waking up to the bright sun bricking its way into my room and a heavy object placed on my legs made me so uncomfortable. I tried moving the object on my leg first to get away from the sun but it seemed a bit impossible because the object was too huge to be carried away without much effort. So I raised my head to see what the object was, only to notice they were two pairs of someone's legs. "ALICE?" I wasn't surprised cause I recalled immediately what happened late at night, so I only smiled and then tried to wake her up but Alice being her, merely shaking her couldn't wake her up no matter how hard you called her so I had to push her not intentionally down from the mattress but it happened. Falling flat on the ground also surprised knew that I wasn't going scout-free on this one. I had to try sneaking away but she caught me anyway.Running around the living room with Alice right behind me trying to catch and deal with me was another level of exercise, she qui

Alice moved over to the canter and sat down with her jaws resting on her hand. She kept up with thinking of what to make for dinner, nothing was coming to mind so she sluggishly stood up, ran to her room, took her purse and a jacket, and moved out of the house. Alice ran to the nearest convince store where she picked out a huge amount of vegetables, more beef, Chicken, and ingredients for Beef Stew.She carried the stuff to the canter where the cashier stood and waited up for her."Hello dear, how are you today?" Alice walked up to the canter only to see an old woman who was smiling at her, she smiled back in response to the woman's nice gestures."Am fine and you?" Alice placed all her stuff on the canter as she had little by little chit-chat."Am okay thank you" The old woman smiled at Alice as she started checking the stuff she had brought. Once she was done with it, she put everything in a nylon bag and handed them over to Alice while Alice brought out her pay card and handed them
Theodore has his mind on the family meeting all through the day, and how he is going to face his sisters regarding the current relationship he has with them. These thoughts made him not concentrate on work today, all he did was sit behind and watch the clock tick. Fortunately for him, He fell asleep as he watched the clock.4:18 pmTheo woke up and the first thing his eyes came in contact with was the clock. He stared at it for a while then remembered where he was supposed to be so he quickly dived out of his bed into the bathroom. He didn't bother making dinner knowing fully well that Alice was having dinner at Valentino's place today. Once he was done taking a bath, he put on one of his suits which Alice had gotten for him on his promotion day, he looked himself up in the mirror and took a deep breath before walking out of his room, and out of the house to where his car was parked. Theo's mom and sisters don't know how much of success he has achieved ever since they had cut tiles w
What was that for?"Alice looked furious at Valentino though she wasn't sure if she was but she knew she needed to be."I can't even explain myself" Valentino looked for the right words on how to explain what just happened out there but he just couldn't fix it."Let's just forget this, okay?" He ran out of the room and back to the hall to get himself in any way a bit distracted from the kiss.Alice was speechless, she didn't know how to react to this" How in the world could someone be so rude to the magnitude that he claims hegemony over his own mistake?" She honestly didn't have a retort to that so she left the room with the query unanswered Hopefully someday those answers will come rushing over to her. She went back to the hall as well only to find her supposed mother-in-law looking for her."Alice, where have you been? I have searched the entire place for you. I hope all is well. Or don't you like your party?."Mrs. Annabelle was ready to do everything just for Alice to be happy. So s
Mike sat on the edge of the old worn-out couch, he fingers furiously twinning together. He glanced at Velerio, who stood by the window, looking out into the bright morning sunset. The office had this unsettling air as the tension grew the more.Mike and Velerio have been friends for over the years now, navigating the ups and downs of life with the kind of easy that only a deep understanding could bring most especially when it comes to Velerio, the Ahpla and his problems.There was a tension simmering beneath the surface, which both of them had acknowledged."Valerio, you know we need to talk about this" Mike finally said as he raised his head up to face his Ahpla with his gray eyes clouded with frustration.Valerio signed knowing exactly what he meant. "Mike I don't think there is anything to talk about" He turned away from the window and walked over to his desk where he stood right beside the table with his glare fixed on Mike.Mike took a deep breath struggling to keep his voice cal
Name your price. "Valantino busted out quietly, his cold voice made Alice snapped out of her thoughts to look into the daring green eyes that seeked a quick response from her.Like who the hell is this guy?Alice Greenwood had earlier walked into the restaurant with her shoulders straight, chin and elbows up in an observation mood.Alice was dressed to kill, with her expensive faux jacket, the five inches heel she wore made her stand out from any normal woman in the restaurant was. The short sleeveless gown did nothing but to highlight how good she would be if she was a model. The gown was glued to the body like it's part of her. To cut the story short, Alice was beautiful and she knew it and argued herself along with the charisma that came with looking so endearing. Alice stood tall, as her eyes scanned over the place, glimpsing to where she would find her new client , she got overwhelmed just to figure out that she would do better on her own since her companion was yet to dock. Eve
The door was banged open only just for a tiny but classic creature to apprehend into the room, Theo who was right at the door became curious about the lady" Who the hell is she?"Theo thought to himself. "Hello, Miss Alice Greenhood" A tiny and quiet voice was heard, Alice froze at the sound of the voice, How would she ever forget this voice "How dare this witch step her feet into my mom's ward and say my name.?" she walked over to Alice like she was here for her."Longest time, daughter of a mere dumb mistress" Alice looked over with a spark in her eye, she felt so angered."Hello, to you too Mrs. Rita Goerge, I can't believe you look worse than the last time I saw you and when was that again.?"Alice complimented her with a smile toying on her lips which displayed disgust and anger. The smile went off Rita's face as soon as Alice replied to her in such a rude tone on her voice and, was she supposed to say 'thank you' for the painful compliment she had given her or what."I guess you
STILL ON GEORGE'S POV.Remembering the past between I and Jamie made me regret what I did and what I have done. I know they say the did has already been done and tgere is no going back, I have always wished she could give me a chance to correct my mistake. Though it makes me happy most times to know that I have a daughter and am sure Jamie won't allow it not believe me but I know how much I wish to spend time with her, cherish her and make her feel a fathers love. Rita has always been my problem, ever since she got herself engaged with my business, it only made me discipise her more than anything. I have always wanted what was best for Jamie but Rita was always in the way and me being a selfish person who only cares about money couldn't bare losing Rita for some mere love so I don't engage myself on anything concerning Rita martreating Jamie even up till date.When I noticed Jamie had chosen a tougher part of fighting up against Rita, I got sacred and knew that at this point I needed
"Don't you think it's time you wake up? Am weak, I need to run around. WAKE UP BRENDA..!!!!!!" Brenda sluggishly turn over to a side."I need to get more sleep, go away" Brenda's sleepy voice yawned.Just as she was ready to get back to sleep, a loud alarm bell rang into her ear which made her quickly open her eyes. She jumped up from her bed with her heart racing so fast, wiped her eyes and tried calming herself down after realizing it was just a dream. She layed back on her bed and shut her eyes to help her racing heart stop."Get up Brenda" She heard a tiny voice speak in her head. This time around it sounded so real to her as she flipped her eyes open. She jumped away quickly from her bed and walked over to the mirror where she stood for a few minutes with her eyes closed."Brenda, it's me" "Ariya?""Is that my name? It sounds cute, I like it" Ariya replied in a faint tone."Arrrhhhhhhhh……….. Mom.. Ariya is here" Brenda screamed as she raced herself down the stairs to the kitchen
The sun was so harsh that it could tear up someone's skin. The roads were quite busy as usual not minding the sun and it's unfriendliness towards the earth.Alice drove straight back to the hospital, she for sometime thought that she had forgotten something but didn't know what that was so she only proceeded with her push to the hospital. Getting there she went straight to her mom's ward, opened the portico and entered only to find the place empty. She couldn't get what was going on, she rushed out and went consecutive to the place one of the nurses stood" Hello, pls do you know the where about of the woman that was in this ward?" she pointed at the ward door, the nurse shook her head to the left and right in response to her question. She went straight to the doctors office only to discover that her mom has been discharged by some kind of people."But why did you let them take my mom?"She couldn't help but yell at the doctor."She personally agreed to go with them. At first I didn't h
Valantino didn't really know what to say to his parents with the impression they are exhibiting but Alice knowing her job and what she is been paid for actually chiped in as soon as he needed her help."I was really the one that argued him not to disclose me yet cause it took me time to accept the fact that I was dating someone as influenced and sweet like him, Am so sorry Ma."Alice said looking at valantino with so much passion written all over her face. Valantino's mom raise an eyebrow at Alice and paused while staring at her.Alice didn't really realize why she was getting those hurtful stares "Did I say something.?" Alice thought to herself then turned to fully face Mrs frost, not until she traced back to the moment when she first entered the place, Mrs frost specifically asked Alice to address her as Annabelle not Ma or Mrs frost."Am so sorry Annabelle, I guess it skipped my mind once again"She grilled at Mrs frost and continued."Mrs Annabelle I didn't know you guys were this g

"What in the world has gone wrong this time around?"Alice was already well dressed so she freaked out to Valentino's house. On getting there she went into the room like she owned the place, the house was dead silent, and Alice needed to move into the living room to know what was going on. "Hey babe" Alice went over to where Valentino sat and side-hugged him as she sat alongside "What's going on, why is nobody talking? And babe why are you suddenly back from the hospital?" Alice looked over to her contracted mother-in-law."Mom?""Alice, I think you should come upstairs with me so we can talk"Valentino dragged Alice out of the living room. Alice's eyes were all over just until her eyes settled on a lady seated right beside Valentino's dad with a huge smile on her face. Alice stared at her more before she was finally on the stairs, out of the room and the lady also had a firm watch at Alice as well."Drop the act, what's going on?"Alice questioned right before they had entered Valentino
