View MoreTears streaming down my face, I stare at my shaking left hand. Raising my eyes, I meet Roberts's unflinching gaze. But for some reason, I don’t back down or flinch, neither do I feel remorseful for the slap. “Who do you think you are to throw such filthy accusations at me?”“You don’t own me and you are not even man enough to admit your feelings for me?”I spit out the words with a sob, I feel so drained of everything, how does it think it is ok to treat me like this just because I am in love with him? Why does everyone always think it is ok to treat me as they please? To use me for there’s purposes and then discard me whenever they like. “I thought you were different from the rest of them”“You told me I was special and you promised to never hurt me but now I know you were lying”“You were just using me and toying with my emotions”I continue, raising my hands to wipe my eyes. I reign in my emotions “But no more!”“I won’t force you to trust me”“I have had enough of this!”“If yo
It has been about an hour of pure torture watching, Ava strut around with that blond bimbo she calls her date. Looking in the direction of their table I see him bend and whisper something into her ears once more, while she giggles. I am battling the urge to go over there and beat the shit out of him for daring to get close to what belongs to me. My woman!! Mine !!Running a hand through my hair in frustration, I try to focus on my surroundings and the conversation going on around me. Turning beside me, I find Elena gazing at me with a pensive look on her face. Fuck! Fuck! What is wrong with me? I am drooling and obsessing over the wrong woman. The woman I need to be all over right now is Elena. My business is still at stake for crying out loud!Picking up the glass of champagne placed in front of me, I drink it down in one go. Extending my hand towards Elena, I rise from my seat. “Mademoiselle, would you do me the honors of this dance?”I say with my best smile plastered on my
Stepping out of the cab, I try to straighten the wrinkles in my gown. Who would have thought that one of the gowns I insisted I wouldn’t need during my shopping spree in Paris would come in handy? Ro almost fell into a coma when I showed her this couture gown, she said she could really die of envy if I didn’t promise her a turn in this gown. My lips curve into a small smile because of this memory “Princess, you look absolutely beautiful ““So breathtaking and stunning”“So will you stop fussing over imaginary wrinkles on the dress ok”“Trust me, wrinkles will be the last thing anyone will be thinking of when they see you in that dress”“You look like a goddess, I thought I was having a heart attack when you walked out of your friend's house”“I consider myself the luckiest man Tonight”Elvis says launching into his ever-sweet serenade of how lucky he is to be my date. Taking a deep breath and standing fully, I square my shoulder while giving Elvis my sweetest smile, so he won’t sens
Robert “Ava! Ava! Ava!”That is all I can think about for the past week. That is the name that has been ringing in my head as a bell. I never realized how deep her claws sank into me until now. My biggest business deal (Astrofin) is about to fall apart, a deal I have invested all the company's assets and even took out a loan to acquire, because I saw and still see the promise. If done right acquiring this company will set me miles ahead of every finance company in the whole of New York. But with the way things are going, I might have moved too soon. my obsession with Ava is not helping matters either.It’s been three days since her last text entered my phone and I have still not replied to any of her calls or texts. I believe her story that she didn’t betray me. I now know this was all orchestrated by Florence because that is the only way to explain how I came to have the photos. She moves fast and the fact that Ava is gullible enough to let herself be used by Florence Irks me to n
The cloud of euphoria I was existing in vanished and a feeling of numbness spread through me.Staring at the pictures spread out on the floor, I try to open my mouth to speak but no words are formed. I look at the man I can barely recognize with cold eyes and a freezing aura, the man who some minutes ago fucked my brains out in the best way possible. The Robert standing before me now is the ruthless businessman who is famed for his tenacity in getting what he wants. Bending down, I pick one of the photos that shows Pete embracing me with a grin on his face. The next one shows me returning the embrace with a warm smile. Looking at the others spread against the floor, I spot one that shows Pete kissing me and a wide smile on my face in the next with me in his arms in the air. From this angle, I can't bring myself to be mad at Robert for not trusting me and insinuating that something is happening with Pete because this photo is very incriminating. “I asked you a question, Ava?”“Wh
Robert Watching Ava step into my office looking like a drowned cat kickstarts my protective instinct, she looks so innocent with her uncertainty flashing in her beautiful doe eyes. It seems she was caught in the rain because I can see her hair now parted in two braids is still damp and her clothes too, But I have been fooled by innocence before. When she agreed to be my lover, I hoped she would accept the plans I had for her in hopes that she would never have to bother about rain and every other uncontrollable factor but now I can understand why she might have been holding back all this time. Ava steps closer to my desk, her steps unsure my protective side tries to fight against my fury but glancing at the photo on the table my fury wins.Pressing the privacy button, I gaze at the person in front of me. “Where have you been Ava?”“Why do you look like a drowned cat”I bark She shredders and replies in a low tone “Sorry I am late, traffic was insane due to the weather”“I didn’t
My eye has been twitching since I woke up this morning, that is a bad sign. I went to bed last night with an uneasy feeling in my guts. Rob has not been responding to my messages, Pete has not been answering my calls, and worse of all, Florence has been texting me nonstop. Gosh!!, what kind of a mess did I get myself into right now? My phone buzzes again signaling a message, I check it and it is from Florence. Ignoring it, I start arranging the outfit I will be wearing to work today. Staring at my Wardrobe, I take in the expensive array of clothes I now own, all thanks to Robert. On our trip to Paris last month, he insisted on shopping for me and it was wonderful. A private showroom at the “house of CB”, my favorite cloth brand. I felt like a Barbie doll In a dress house, the personal shopper ( Bridget ) Robert hired was like my very own Cinderella fairy godmother. She knew exactly what to bring and match, but the best part was the look on Robert’s Whenever I came out with a new ou
“A fucking police station, Pete!!!”“I now have to come get your ass out of the jail?”“Are you out of your damn mind ““What were you thinking?”“Just how dumb can you get for Christ's sake?”“How did I get stuck with an idiot for a son?”I thunder at Pete, vibrating with so much anger that I can barely contain myself. He is looking at me but I can barely see his eyes because they are swollen shut from the beating he got from the other party. His face is swollen and reddish in most areas, Pete looks like he has been run over by a truck. Dry blood traces all over his cotton top and his hair looks like a child took scissors to it. We are standing in the parking lot of the Las Vegas police prescient waiting for my lawyer, the whole place stinks of piss and burning rubber, looking around we are surrounded by patrol cars and cops roaming around, attending to their various duties which I am supposed to be doing too but here I am. “Dad, look I am sorry ok”“You need to have seen the other
AVA Robert storms out of his office, and into his private elevator. My gaze trails his exit till the elevator closes, I wonder how his left ankle is now. I don’t know what I was thinking when I made him climb down from my window but by the time I got a hold of myself the deed had been done.I am still in shock that I made the “Robert Williams” exit my house like a thief in the night. I have sent so many apology texts since then and he acknowledged them that it’s fine, so to make it up to him I prepared a surprise for Rob. Something I am sure he would love, I am getting excited just thinking about it. My phone alarm goes off signaling the time for lunch. Looking up from my system I glance at Anne and she is already packing to take her lunch break, Thank God! Anne has been unpredictable since my return back to work two days ago, she has been stricter and more nerve-wracking than usual, I can’t wait for this internship to be over. “Hey! You over there “I hear over my shoulder but
“Is that your dad ?” I ask in a breathless voice while pushing Pete to dislodge him from my boob he was suckling on like a greedy baby hungry for milk but he won’t budge. Pete is high again and for some reason very cranky today. Since he got the summons from his father’s secretary, “Pete, stop! Your dad just walked in I think” I have never met Robert Williams before but everyone who is into finance knows who he is. One of the youngest billionaires, his company is his life. He is known for being ruthless in getting what he wants but that’s not all. He looks so perfect and handsome, if his billion-dollar empire fails he can give models a run for their money.Thankfully , the position we are in covers my nakedness, and Pete’s dad can’t see much especially since he is standing in the shadow of the dimly lit passageway but I am flushed with embarrassment because any mature adult can guess what Pete is doing. I drag down my top and push Pete off. Pete sighs: seemingly disappointed, turn...
