2024-10-29 19:42:56Athena tucked her hair that got in her face behind her ear, “I asked us to meet because you said there is something you want to tell me and I remember that I promised to call you when I am free, and this is it, I am free, so, what do you want to talk about.”
“Athena,” he sighed, “please, don’t be cold with me.”“Really, that’s what you want to talk about? Need I remind you that you were the first one to be cold? You broke up with me in the street, all because I attended your fashion show and you didn’t want to be seen with me because I was dressed poorly. You didn’t bother to know what became of me, if I got home safely. Then when I came to you two weeks later, you embarrassed me by calling me a beggar repeatedly, then you said to your friends that I am a mother who pleaded with you to give me some money in order to feed my kids and since then I have refused to let you be. You used your fame against me, tellRelated chapters
The Tutor Chapter thirty two
Sean didn’t return home immediately after work, for some reason, he doesn’t want to see Athena. He knew TB was back, he had dropped by at the office before going home. He went to one of his best exclusive bars where only the top notches are seen. He sat at the bar, not bothering to order for a private room, he ordered for whiskey and the bartender attended to him immediately. It has been so long he drank in a bar, after meeting Athena; he has not been in a bar again. He had been busy and didn’t bother to search for her, he had believed she would come find him; they all do after spending a night with him.So he had traveled out of the country to meet Leo as well as attend a business meeting together, but what he didn’t expect was for his mind to be dominated by the young, innocent girl he had shared a drink with and spent the night with. She was everywhere in his mind, he has never thought about a lady so much. He often browse through the internet, watchi

Athena watched Sean leave and when he was out of sight, she turned to see TB glaring at her, “TB…”“Don’t,” he raised his hand to stop her, “Sean is right, you should do what you want, neither him nor I has the right to stop you.” He sighed, “I just wish he should be really true to you this time, Athena, I will really not want to see you the way you were the first time I saw you.” He forced a smile and heaved a deep breath, then he walked up to her and hugged her, “you love him, I know that now but if I am being really honest, during the past weeks, I had thought you have gotten over him and that you had your eyes on someone else,” he released her and looked the way Sean left and shrugged, “but I guess I thought wrong,” he smiled genuinely this time, “you know what, go try him out, if he hasn’t change, don’t hesitate to come back here, you are always welcome, also, it would be the perfect time to sort yourself out, know what you truly want.”“TB,” she sighed and hugged him aga

Sean stood in the balcony with a drink in his hand, he watched as Rodger loads Athena’s bags into the car, TB was standing beside her, probably trying to talk her out of leaving but from the looks of it, he don’t think he was winning. After leaving her in the living room early this morning, he had not been able to sleep. He had gone through so many things in his mind, he had wondered if he should go to her room, tell her how he feels and wait to know if she would change her mind for him. Or if he should go to her room, seduce her and make sweet love to her, but that would make her hate him forever.He had thought about going with drinks and getting her drunk and then sleeping with her just like their first night together, she might woke up and classify it as mistake like she did the first night and he would be hurt when she does that. He had thought of many ways to approach her and even thought about begging her not to leave and stay with him but that was against hi

Athena said nothing and tried not to think of what he meant by extend the family, she looked at the doors in front of her, with Fred’s apartment in mind, she already knew that one of the doors leads to the bedroom and the other to the visitor’s restroom and the last one the kitchen, “I’m taking the bedroom.”“Of course, that’s where you would be sleeping, where else?” he chuckled.Athena turned to look at him, “I mean that I would be sleeping alone in the bedroom.”“Oh. Um, where would I sleep then?”Athena looked around, “the couches look comfortable, you can take one of them.”Frank scratched his head, “um…the bed is big enough for two, you won’t even know I’m there.”“Do you want me here or not?”“Of course I do, I do, I really do Athena, it…it has been lonely without you. You have no idea how happy I

Athena froze when she heard that, the image that flashed in her mind was Sean lying on the street, bleeding and calling for her to help him. “Athena?” TB’s voice rang in her ear and mind, “Athena!”“TB, is he badly hurt, which hospital is he in? I’m coming there right now, are they performing a surgery on him? Oh my God!” she was already crying and Fred was worried for her but he has to wait for the call to be over for him to know what was happening.“What? No!” TB said, “Jesus, girl, stop imagining the worse.”“What do you mean? You just said he had an accident.”“I did, but it’s not as bad as the scenarios you are imaging,” he snorted, “Sean had been in accident, yes and he told me himself, the problem is that he refuse to go to the hospital, I don’t know what that guy has against hospitals, seriously. We need to get him to a hospital so that he wou

When Athena got to Frank’s house, he was waiting for her. At some point, it had started raining and she didn’t bother to take a cab and kept walking under the rain. When Frank saw her drenched, he was surprised; “are you that penniless that you had to walk under the rain?” he was now angry.Athena looked at him, she played an image in her mind, if it had been Sean, he would have asked what happened and would have wondered why she would walk in the rain and even before questioning her, he would have made sure she changed out of her wet clothes and had a hot cup of coffee. She knew that because it had happened before. That was after one month of staying in his house, she had gone for a stroll and it had started raining, she wasn’t with cash and had no choice but to walk home.She had met Sean and Smith on the way, they were looking for her and when he saw her, he had come down from the car and approached her and then carried her into the car.

“Sean, At…Athena…” TB couldn’t finish his words as he looked at Sean with tear filled eyes. Sean was glaring at him and he expected him to punch him, if he did, he wouldn’t blame him, Athena was his responsibility yet he left her alone and now she was stuck somewhere in the fire. Just how did things turn out like this?Sean ignored him and walked past him to the firefighters, “are some of your men still in there?”The firefighters looked at him and shook their heads, “no, Mr. Brand,” one of them answered, “the fire has grown too big and the best thing now is to work on quenching it.”“Someone is still in there, are you going to let an innocent person die?” he had to work on himself not to shout at them.“I’m sorry, Mr. Brand, but no one can go into that fire now, it has grown too big and is eating everything in its part. There is no guarantee that the victim or the r

Holding his breath, Sean carried Athena bridal style and ran out of the dressing room, the fire has gotten worse than when he came in and he just prays to God that they would be a little way to get her to the people outside, he doesn’t care if he doesn’t make it but he has to make sure she was safe. Approaching towards the exit, there was no way to pass, the fire has eaten up everything and the heat was scalding him, he only has his singlet to protect his upper body. He could feel the burns all around him but there was no time to worry about that. The fire cackles around him and a loud snap told him something was falling, he looked up and saw the wood, there was no way to dodge it as he was surrounded by fire and it would have been easier to maneuver it if he wasn’t carrying Athena. Then taking the first idea that came to his mind, he wrapped his arms around her and shielded her with his body. He felt the weight of the wood on him, part of it hitting his head and h

“Have you ever heard from your father?” Athena asked in the car on their way home.Sean kissed her knuckles with his ring on it, “do you remember the man I excused myself to talk to at the hotel?”Athena nodded; her head was resting on his shoulder, “yes.”“He is my father’s assistant. Turns out Amber’s illness was hereditary, he has been sick for the past ten years, nursing his health back with money but I guess the money can’t save him anymore, he is dying and his only wish is to see me.”“What for?” she raised her head to look at him.He kissed her forehead and made her rest her head on him again, “maybe to apologize? He has been trying to do that for two years now. His wife didn’t give him a child, they had adopted a boy and girl, I wonder why. Anyways, I guess he wants to make amend on what he did, but he made a mistake, my mother might have easily forgiv

Sean sighed but continued, “I took her back home to stay with Amber and I left in search of Leo, we went to my father and I told him about Amber’s case and he threw us out, saying he has no business with his past. Leo had told me we don’t have any other thing to do but the obvious, we had to steal. We attacked different stores that night and were lucky to escape without getting caught. On our way home, we saw a wounded man, we didn’t think twice and ransacked him, taking every cent with him but we couldn’t leave him there so we took him to the hospital and left him in front of it. The money we got wasn’t enough; I couldn’t go in and see mom’s disappointed face so we left. We stayed on the road, robbing anybody we could. We did it for days, five days I think, until I believed we have gotten enough that could take us to the city.When Leo and I got to the hospital, mom saw us and started crying, Amber passed on the previous night,

Athena smiled, “Sean, most of us have done things we are not proud of, but that doesn’t make us evil, I believe whatever it is you did, you did it for a reason.”He nodded with a smile, not looking up at her, “yes, for a reason.”“Well, you have my promise that I won’t judge.”He chuckled, looking up at her then, his hazel eyes shining brightly with the lights surrounding them, “I can feel that you won’t.”“See, even your heart believes in me.”He laughed softly then and closed his eyes, he sighed, “I wasn’t burn rich.”“I know that already.”He nodded, “I have a traumatic past. You see, my family was the perfect one when I was growing up. But then, my dad lost his job when I turned six and everything changed, he began drinking, wasting all his savings in gambling and alcohol. My mom would often try to understand him and w

“Athena, please….” Frank called back her attention and she stared at him, seconds passed as everyone waited to know what would happen. Sean could feel his heart breaking into a million pieces by the second. Leo and Gloria walked out to witness what was happening and Gloria gasped.“What the heck, is this guy stupid?” She muttered to Leo who said nothing and glanced at Sean, he knew about Sean’s proposal tonight but what he couldn’t understand was why he would just stand there and do nothing. He glanced at Athena, silently reminding her in his heart about their deal and that he would not hesitate to carry it out and he would make sure that she and Frank lived in wretchedness.What happened next shocked everyone, Athena took a step forward to Frank and Sean closed his eyes, he knew that would happen, guess he wasn’t more important than her mother’s wish. He was contemplating on how to walk out of there in his shame w

Three months has passed since the fire incident and everything has gone back to normal, the photo shoot took place two months ago and Athena was brought to the limelight. It didn’t help that Sean introduced her as his girlfriend at the dinner party that Brand Entertainment always host after the release of their new face. It wasn’t long and news about her started coming up but there was nothing against her except the fact that she was Frank Jones ex girlfriend, but rather than mock her, a lot envied her because she was the one that finally caught the heart of the famous Sean Brand.Happy with herself for making the right decision and following her heart, Athena had pleaded with Sean to talk to Leo about giving Frank his job back, which she had explained her reason as it was better to settle him and have him out of her life for good for she won’t rest well knowing that he was out of work because of her and that fact was bound to tie her to him because whenever

Sean stood tall and handsome in the white shirt he was putting on, his hands tucked in the pockets of his sky blue slacks, his hair neatly combed and slicked back and his hazel eyes shining brightly with intelligence. He could see them fidgeting and he sighed, then he took slow but calculated steps towards the table. When he dragged out a chair, he saw they flinched and rolled his eyes, he found himself praying they should not wet themselves with him still in the room. He knows why they were like that, they might not be afraid of the cops and could say whatever they want to say, but in an option to be questioned by him, they would choose being locked up in a jail than to face him.He sat crossed legged on the chair, his eyes never leaving them and they hadn’t looked up at him for once since he stepped into the room. He cleared his throat and began, “who still want to be a model?”The two ladies looked at each other and then at him but they looked down

It’s been a month and two weeks since the day of the fire and Sean’s wounds was healing, thanks to the honey and his medications. Enclosed in a room for one month sure has brought him and Athena closer than they were before. At least, they now do what they want without wondering how the other would react to it, since knowing about their feelings for each other.Sean had agreed to Leo’s and TB’s pleading that it was time they return to the city. He has been putting them off for over a week now and Athena had been secretly happy about that, back in the city she won’t have him to herself every single day; he would have to go to work, sometimes work over time at home, and would have divided attention. But even though she was secretly enjoying their unplanned vacation where she was his nurse, nursing him back to health, she knew they really do have to go back to the city. There are some things they need to take care off. Especially since Leo had found

Sean couldn’t take it anymore and immediately turned to face her, putting his wounded back out of her view. He pulled her into his arms and placed his forehead on hers, “it’s just body wounds, it would heal.”“If…if you hadn’t run in after me, if you hadn’t…” she was hyperventilating in no time, “I’m so sorry,” she paused, trying to steady herself but it was so hard to do when she was crying so hard and breathing so quickly.Sean quickly cupped her cheeks in his hands, “Athena, look at me,” he ordered, “look at me,” she finally did, “If I am to repeat that action a thousand times, I would do it without blinking an eye. I don’t care about the pain of the damages; the most important thing is that you are right here, standing in front of me, breathing and fine. You think I would rather save myself but let you die in that fire? If that had been the case, I wi
