" What are you doing here? " Gwen asked Ricardo as she took a step backward. " I should be asking you that, what brings you here? " Ricardo asked her. He look around Gwen and noticed that she came with her luggage and he became more confused. " What's going on here? Are you a friend to the owner of this house? '' Gwen replied with her gaze fixed on him. " You must be kidding me. This is my house " " What?!!! " Gwen screamed but she covered her mouth immediately. " Why are you in my house with your luggage? Arya isn't staying here, she stays with my mum and how did you become friends with my sister? " Ricardo asked her because he thought she came to visit his sister. " Holy Shit!! " Gwen felt weak immediately. She ran away from his office and now, this?. Gwen bites her lips in anger and confusion. Maybe she should just go back home. " Gwenevere, why….!!! " Ricardo wanted to speak further but his phone began to ring. He excused himself and entered the guest room. " How are you
" Wow!! So you girls have become this close to the extent that you gossip about me? " Ricardo spoke out loudly and Arya heard his voice she became surprised. " Why are you with Gwen's phone? Did you hear everything I said earlier? " Arya asked him as she began to bite her fingers. " Don't call this line again and stay away from her " Ricardo said plainly. Gwen was surprised at his sudden outburst. Why is acting up like a child? " You have no rectitude to choose my friends. I be-friend whoever I like and I will tell mum that you've started maltreating Gwen " Arya Screamed out and Ricardo covered his ears because her voice almost damaged his eardrums. " You don't even know Gwen, It mum who pleaded with her to be a housekeeper so don't look down on her. She was a model and I can find another job for her if care is not taken…… " Arya kept on blabbering. Ricardo became fed up and he ended the call. Arya gazed at her phone, she couldn't believe that Ricardo ended the call on her. She
" I said stop it!!! I will call your mum " Gwen screamed as she ran to the sitting room while Ricardo went after her. She almost fell but he held her on time and he drew her to his embrace. Gwen was breathing hard because of the little exercise. " Why don't we remain like this forever? Marry me and you won't regret it, my heart has comprehended to love you but why can't you try and allow your peaceful heart to love me? " Ricardo said to the panting Gwen. Gwen remained in his embrace trying to catch her breath and she wasn't ready to say anything. She began to sniff immediately, she sniffed countless times before she pushed Ricardo away and ran to the kitchen. " OMG!!! The food got burnt! " She screamed as she turned off the gas. Ricardo opened the windows for air to penetrate while Gwen poured water into the pot. They stood emotionlessly and stared at each other for a while and they said chorus " It's your fault " " It's your fault " " Don't worry, I will prepare something el
" How dare you raise your filthy hands some? " Bianca screamed angrily as she watched Gwen draw closer to her. " I can take any insult from you or anyone but what I won't stand is anyone insulting my mum. I can kill you and go to prison for the sake of my mum, don't ever cross your limit again " Gwen said in anger as she bites her lips. " Ricardo!! You stand here and let nobody insult me? I will make sure you both pay for this one way or the other " Bianca lashed out. " Leave, I'm fucking hungry and I need to eat in peace," Gwen said as she pushed her out and called the security. They drove Bianca out despite her struggles. Gwen took a deep breath and sat down to eat but she noticed that Ricardo was still standing and focused his gaze on her. " What happened? Aren't you hungry anymore? Let's go if you don't feel like eating " Gwen said as she stood up for them to leave but Ricardo gently wrapped his hands around her and he stared at her with so much affection. " I love you and
He began to inhale her deeply and he wrapped his hands around her. Being intoxicated with her scent, he slept off.……………………..Gwen woke up and straightened her body. She opened her eyes slightly because the morning sun was too bright. She looked around and noticed that it wasn't her room. It's not her girly decorated room. She looked at the bed but no one was there with her. She got down and wanted to sneak out when a voice reached out to her and she stood on her track. " You are finally up? " Ricardo asked as he closed the newspaper that he was going through. " Good morning sir " Gwen greeted him but she wasn't looking at him because her nightgown was transparent and it was morning so her nipple was pointing out. She tried to avoid his gaze. " How can a pretty girl like you sleep-walk? " He asked her as he stood up from his couch and walked up to her. " Huh!!,? " Gwen asked surprisingly. " How did you sleepwalk and get into my room? I still don't get it " Ricardo questioned he
Gwen was very sure that she had seen him somewhere but, where exactly? She was lost not knowing that Leo was talking to her. Arya had to touch her twice before she regained herself. Ricardo was a bit embarrassed because he thought Gwen was carried away by his brother's looks. Gwen and Ricardo greeted Mrs Yolanda who was busy with her phone. She dropped it and stood up to welcome them. " Wow!! Did you bring Gwen alongside with you? Why didn't you inform us that you are bringing her? " Mrs Yolanda asked. " Ma'am, I will excuse myself when the meeting begins. I pleaded with Sir Ricardo to take me along because I was bored " Gwen said innocently and Mrs Yolanda burst into laughter. " That isn't what I meant. If my son had told me that he would come alongside with you, I would have gotten something nice for you " Mrs Yolanda said to the amazement of her children. When did their mum become this sweet? How did she change drastically? " Mum, I can't pinpoint what's happening. Do you pr
Ricardo got home and Gwen served him dinner after he had his bath. She was about to leave the dining when Ricardo called her back. " Gwen, please feed me. I don't have an appetite. I might not touch this food if you don't feed me " Ricardo said looking so pitiful. " Sir, I want to arrange my room so I can't feed you. I'm sorry " Gwen said with her gaze fixed on his troubled face. "It's fine, go " Ricardo replied and she walked away without a second thought. Her heart was pounding so fast, Gwen knew that she was in love. Gwen entered her room and sank on her bed. She can't continue like this because she might have a heart attack. Why did she allow herself to fall for him? How could she reverse everything back to normal? Why isn't her heart listening to her anymore? Gwen held her chest as she questioned herself but she wasn't getting an answer. She decided to go out and visit Kathryn so she dressed up and took her phone without trying to call Kathryn first. She walked to the dini
The bright sun woke Gwen up. She turned around to touch Ricardo but he wasn't on the bed with her. She got up quickly and put on her clothes, she knocked on the bathroom door but no response. She checked his wardrobe and noticed that a few clothes were gone including his traveling bag. Gwen checked the time and it was already 9 am. " Fuck!! Why did I oversleep? It's so unlike me " Gwen said as she walked back to her room and took her shower she didn't have the appetite to eat because no one was around to dine with her. Gwen went downstairs and locked the door, she boarded a taxi which stopped her at Kathryn's house. She got down and paid him off. Entering the compound the first person she saw was David and he looked all dressed up. " Who am I seeing? Did you miss your way? " David said as he hugged Gwen. " Get out!! Why haven't you called me ever since I got a new job? What kind of a younger brother are you? " Gwen asked, cropping up to be angry. " I'm sorry, I've been busy la
