Chapter 30“Are you fine?” She asked with her brows furrowed.Niko raised his brows as his lips slightly parted with his eyes strained on her.“What do you mean, am I fine? I need to eat, just give me the cereal, and all this can be done!” He said sharply.“I don’t think you have that right to shout at me.” Reyna retorted.“Did I shout at you?” Niko asked with widened eyes.“That’s what you just did.” Reyna yelled.“You’re the one yelling, I did not yell, all I did was say give me cereal and here you are, shouting at me!” Niko yelled again.“Then what you did now is called what? Talking?” Reyna asked as she stared directly at him with her chest rising and falling.The both of them had no idea how it had escalated to this but Niko found his body itchy to even her stare and Reyna could not even stand him anymore. Who the hell does he think he is that he can just command her? And who the hell does she think she is that she can just shout at him? They glared hard at each other before Reyn
Chapter 31“Do you know him?” Larissa asked as she eyed the guy in front of them.“What do you want?” Reyna ignored Larissa's question.“I was asked for this to be sent to you. The boss said not to come back if you don’t accept it so it would be better if you chose wisely.” Joe said, stretching the bag to her.Reyna clenched her fist tightly. Why was he doing this?“Then you can follow me all round the school. I’m notninterested.” She replied, rolling her eyes before pulling Larissa to herself and turning to the canteen.Joe sighed before following them. Niko has said he should not return if she did not collect the dood, and now she was actually not collecting it.“Ma’am.” He called out as he approached them again.Reyna stopped abruptly, muttering a curse in her mind as she proceeded to turn and look at him.“I don’t know you. You don’t know me. So do not even try to disturb me.” Reyna said, eyeing him before turning back again:“Why don’t you want to collect the food?” Larissa mutt
Chapter 32Reyna felt lost immediately he went out. According to what she read, the breaching of the contract requires the party to pay half of the total amount back to the other party. And now that he was offering her, how much was it, where was she going to get the money?“Ahhhh..” she groaned out.She stood up angrily as she slammed the chair to the floor. To be enraged was an understatement, she was disappointed in herself. She has never been this angry all of her life and now she was losing an opportunity because of that. She clenched her jaw as her hand ruffled her hair before hirriedly walking out. She met him at the same place she has left him before as she moved towards him and fell to her knees immediately.“I’m very sorry sir…I’m very sorry…I can’t terminate the contract..I can’t get the money..” Reyna cried out.Niko ignored her like she was not there as he continued to tap on his phone repeatedly. Joe was seated beside him, wondering how he would handle her and what he wo
“My boyfriend?” Reyna asked with a smile.“Of course. Is he treating you well? Hope he’s not crossing his boundary with you?” Alan asked.“Nope! How dare he! You know your sister, I won’t let him do something like that to me.” Reyna said, patting Alan's head carefully.Alan squinted his eyes at her, something he always does if he wants to find out if she’s saying the truth or she’s lying to him.“Are you sure? You can always stop this if he treats you unfairly.” He said but regretted it the instant the words came out.“And let you die?” Reyna said sharply before sighing.She has always told him not to worry about whatever she was passing through, as long as she does not lose him and everything makes sense at the end, she doesn't mind. And there was no way she'd let Niko treat her badly, and there was no way he'd do so. From the looks of it, he does not look like someone who would cross his boundary with her, or even hurt her. He was just someone who would enforce his rules and do what
Reyna gritted her teeth together, all her happy mood out of the window the moment the door opened and she stepped her feet into the car.“So all I said this morning, your ears did not understand any of it?” Niko asked.“Is there a problem?” Reyna retorted.Nikos brows was pulled together by her response as he turned his head to look at her. She was staring outside the window, and he had to admit, she was so beautiful and this side of her just brought more of her beauty out.“You we’re walking down the street, you didn’t see a cab or you couldn’t call your driver?” Niko asked again.“I don’t have his number.” Reyna muttered.“And why didn’t you collect it?”“Because I didn’t remember.” She replied.Niko opened his mouth to talk but closed it back almost immediately as a sigh escaped his lips. His hand moved to his forehead as he massaged it lightly.“You know, if we’re going to make this work..”“I must follow your rules, and make sure to do everything you want. Yes I know, so don’t wo
Where the hell is she! Find her!” Niko raged out with his eyes widened.Joe hurriedly brought out his phone, gulping at intervals as he quickly searched where she could be. Niko entered the car and slammed the door close before snatching the phone from joes hand.“You shoul…”“Shut up!” Niko cut him off.He started tapping furiously on the screen of the phone, checking all dimensions until he saw where she is.“What!” He exclaimed.“What is it?” Joe said.“Drive home now!” Niko bellowed as he flung the phone back to joe face.His expression hardened immediately as he took even breath on each other. How dare she! How the hell did she do it! He swallowed his spit, gritting his teeth together. His phone rang again as he saw it was his mother.“You infillial son! Where are you!” His mother yelled out through the phone.“Is there anything you’ll like to tell me mum?” He intervened immediately.“Didn’t you hear what I told you the last time I called you! Be in this house immediately.” His m
Niko opened the door with a heavy feeling, standing in front of the tall mansion and taking in the look before deciding on going inside.“Would you like..”“Just stay here. I’ll be out in a few.” He said before walking towards the house.He was in a two piece designer suit and a pointed shoe matching up his look. He gulped down as he stepped into the house, and the first image he was used to all of his life, his father already standing in front of the door waiting for him.“Look who decides to show up.” He said as he eyed him.“Good afternoon to you too.” He said with a sly smile on his lips before walking in.His eyes widened as his brows contorted in a frown as he looked at them all.“Seems like it’s a whole family.” He muttered.“Good afternoon grandma, mummy, and all other people in the seat.” He greeted me before finding his seat in the house.He was known to take the lowest seat in the house, not that he minds but it still hurt him that he needed to take the lower chair and his
“What did you just say?” Niko chortled back, finally breaking loose from Joe as he approached her.“I…I’d..didn’t think you’ll..”“You didn’t think it was of importance right? You think I just want to see your face and play with you or take you out. Hum!” He raged.“I didn’t expect you to message me right now, I did not know that it was of importance. You made it sound like if I didn’t come, you were going…and I wanted to do something so I had to drop it. I’m very sorry.” Reyna added.Niko clenched his jaw, words failing him for some moment and his sweaty face made it so hard for him to say anything again. He gritted his teeth together, turning to look at Joe who just pressed his lips together without saying anything.“We have to talk.” He said through the gritted teeth before approaching the stairs.Reyna felt a weight coming to her as he made his way up the stairs, only for him to brush past her the moment he passed without sparing her a glance. She sighed before replaying all the w
" To the new CEO and her company " Joe stood up for the toast and we all did the same thing. " To us " we all yelled and then we drank and then ate that day. All through the dinner,Reyna only thought about one thing all through the night, and it was that she was a contented woman. After the celebration we locked the new building and then decided to head home. We went home in two, Reyna went with Niko while Lucas drove Larisa and Joe home." I will call you when I get home, Reyna, " Larisa said before getting into the car with Lucas and Joe. She waved her hands at Reyna as Lucas started the car and he drove off. Lucas dropped Joe off at his house first because he wanted to have alone time with Larisa. He drove them off in silence, although he had a lot of things he wanted to talk to her about, he was nervous to tell her what was on his mind.Larisa on the other hand was getting impatient due to the silence between her and Lucas because she had wanted to be alone with him all day and s
They both got down from the car and then Reyna took in her surroundings. they were at a small exquisite white two storey building and she could see Joe Lucas and Larissa standing in front of the building and the three of them a to Niko with a smile" I have not even done anything for you " he said with a hearty laugh and she looked away from him back at the house. before she could think Larissa was already squealing out and rushing to meet her friend." I am so happy for you, Reyna. You are successful and so beautiful. We made it through, even after all the tough times we had in school and everything we went through. Larissa said to her friend and she laughed at her friend's choice of words." I'm so happy that we made it to Larissa but I wouldn't have been happier and it wouldn't have been possible if not that I had you by my side. you are everything a girl could ever wish for in a best friend. you made me want to get better and even when I was sad about fashion sometimes you made me
" Hello beautiful, how was your day? Niko said and Reyna blushed at his words over the phone. she knew he was calling her to congratulate her on her success" Hi Niko. where are you?. you missed the whole thing " she said with a pout" I'm so sorry I was held up at work that's why but I'm here now. I need you to come out to the parking lot with your things " he told her and she wondered why he asked her to do that but she wanted to see him too so she had no choice" Okay then I will see you soon. let me just grab my things and then wrap things up inside and then I will come to you. "She said" I will be waiting for you then babe. bye " he said and she ended the call. She walked back to Alvarez and then thanked him again before going inside to grab her things. She told Dylan she was leaving and then she left the hall for the parking lot.She was searching for Niko and his car as she thought of what to do when she finally found him. she wondered if she got her a present and if she shoul
Niko left the building and got into his car before hitting the road. He was going to go and see Reyna today because of what he prepared for her. his father had wasted little of his time because of the nonsense he spilled out. It took a lot of self control to hold himself so he wouldn't have to slap his father because the man knew how to get on people's nerves."Call Lucas "Niko told his car and the car began to dial Lucas's number. he drove slowly while waiting for Lucas to pick up. After the third ring Lucas picked up the phone call."What is going on Niko, I was about to call you when I didn't hear anything from you all morning "Lucas said"I'm sorry I was stopped by my father on my way so I had to listen to what he had to say "Niko said and Lucas laughed. "The news came to him and he decided to come and beg didn't he. don't tell me you listened to him because Niko you have a soft heart "Lucas said and Niko smiled"I have a soft heart but only for the kind of people who deserve it a
"If that is all you have to say then I will take my leave now dad, thank you "Niko said with a forced smile. He tried to leave the room but his father blocked the way."Niko, I want to talk to you about something and you are trying to walk off. I am your father "he said and stopped Niko from going away."And I have nothing to hear from you. I have an important meeting to attend to "Niko said but his father held his hand causing him to stop on his track."What do you want now? "Niko hissed out, anger clearly in his voice"Just listen to me son please, let me come in and we can talk about this Niko please give me a chance "he begged and Niko was silent for a while before he finally spoke"Fine you can come in then "Niko said and his father smiled. He let him enter the office and then he closed the door after them."Niko, I will make this very short. I am your father and I raised you with the help of my wife, your mother "he said"You mean my step mother, the same woman who maltreated me
5 Niko had made a new announcement and that was what Jeremy’s guard had shown him, catching everybody completely off guard, Nirvana had announced that they will be signing a new deal with the Lynch group of companies and that there would be percentage for every company that works with Lynch group of companies or have shares in the companies. There have been a lot of rustle and bustle, interviews both TV and personal since Nirvana announced the new deal. It became the talk of the town and for a big company like Nirvana partnering with another Multi billion dollar company, the news soon spread far and wide. “We got a proposal for this deal from the owner himself and we feel so honored to be considered, really and for everyone that believes in us. We all say a big Thank you to you guys. Expect more from us.” Niko said in one of his interviews. “Board meeting, Now.” Niko called and all the board of directors gathered in the meeting room. It had been a busy day for everybody as e
Jeremy and Niko both laughed it off and just had an handshake and both hugged each other. Reyna came downstairs to meet them. “What? You think I wouldn’t say a personal goodbye to you?” Reyna said as she smiled, making Jeremy also smile. “Bye. Do have a safe trip.” Reyna said, hugging Jeremy and giving him a peck on his cheek. “Thank you. I sure will.” Jeremy said as he laughed and said his goodbye to Niko and Reyna. “You both take good care of yourself.” He added as he hoped in his car to take his leave. The engine revved and the car left the building not long after. They finally got back to the city with Jeremy resting his head on the window and thinking about his meeting with his daughter Reyna and the new memories he looked forward in making with her. Jeremy got home exhausted, making a cup of tea for himself as he thought of everything that has happened these past days. Jeremy thought about visiting his wife’s graveyard before going to the office. Taking a shower, Je
“Thank you.” Jeremy said excited about Reyna agreeing to come see him sometimes and just then Niko made his way back to where he’d left Reyna and Jeremy. Jeremy’s guard came in almost at the same time too to get Jeremy’s stuff. “Careful with that bag, take that first and you can come in for the other.” He told his guard who immediately heeded to the instruction. “I also want to have a word with you, Niko.” Jeremy said as Niko was about to seat, Niko stood back up immediately. “Oh No. Seat, please.” Jeremy said while also having his seat back too. “I’ll leave you both, I need a shower anyway.” Reyna said, standing up and heading into the room. “Okay.” Niko said. “Take care dear.” Jeremy said to her because he knew he might not get the opportunity to see her before he leaves, she seemed tired and had yawned before leaving and he wouldn’t want to disturb her by asking her to wait behind. “So, Niko. I just wanted to say I’m sorry.” Jeremy started and Niko looked sur
2 “Goodness, I am so full.” Reyna laughed, rubbing her belly. “I can’t believe we left Lucas and Larissa there alone.” She added. “Why? They’re adults, they need some alone time just as much as we do, Hence the reason we’re going home for a night of Netflix and chill.” Niko said seductively, raising both eyebrows. “Hmm. Really?” Reyna said equally trying to be seductive too. “We could start the “chilling” here too.” She added, rubbing her palm on his thigh. “No. I love my life, Reyna. Let me live. Not here.” Niko immediately protested and they both laughed. Getting home Niko drove into the building, packed the car properly and both of them got out laughing. They got inside the house to see Jeremy packing his bags, Reyna and Niko looked at each other in confusion, although there was no reason for it. “Oh, you guys are back.” Jeremy said, zipping one of the bags he had packed already. “Yes, we are.” Niko said. “What’s going on?” He added and raised one of his eyebrows in
