My mom and I were given the visitors room to stay in, she thanked Mrs Sophia before letting her leave the room.."Are you sure about this?"..I had to let Mrs sophia leave the room before asking my mom..She keeps quiet and that occurs then there are no more ideas in her mind, she keeps calm and watch things happen..." Let's just get settled in" She doesn't say much and just went to bathroom to freshen up. I changed into something more comfortable and then went to the living room, Ethan and his parents were seated on one of the couches, Mrs Sophia saw me coming and invited me to sit with them. "Hey! You good"..Ethan came over after sometime and asked me the question. "Yeah! What do you mean!". I faced him and asked that question. He slowly shook head and intentionally changed the subject; there wasn't any else to say, I stood up and went upstairs to the bedroom..I was there when Mrs Sophia came.."Megan, are you alright?".She asked me questions I do not have answers too _ wa
New pov Like my name , I'm regarded to be a flower, the colour of my family, my dad and mom, dad passed on some few months ago and it's left only mom and myself_ I see her longing to be with dad at every given opportunity, she almost had herself killed, accidentally falling down the stairs_ alone, I made up my mind to employ a maid that was going to take care of her, while I tackle my work_ Mr Richard's company, Richard is dad's godson, he is the definition of a rude and abrupt man, least I forget totally demanding.I still remember the day I went for an interview at his dad's company, Mr Smith had no complain in working with me and as his assistant_ definitely not his son, bit Richard held such a defense against it and almost made me loose the job, a Job I bearly started on.But Mr Smith being his calm and understanding self, he decided to over look his sons, nasty and childish behavior, he went further and handed the job of being his assistant to him_ PA. Personal assistant.I wa
I buried myself with work untill the entire day ended and it was time to head back home, Mr Smiths mansion..I left the office riding back with a cab, I came down walking inside, when I noticed the ongoing decorations around the entire mansion.I walked ahead, bumping into Richard. As usual he had this resentful look at me, but didn't quite say anything rude; even when I asked too know what was going on with the decorations.."There's going to be a party, dad wants you too attend also,".. he said and left going outside of the mansion Walls..Alone, I walked to my bedroom, I came inside and on my bed, there was a dress lying on it_ I approached and picked it up , when a tiny bite fell off from the dress_ I bent down and picked it up, having to see that Mr Smith had sent me the dress, at the note, he wanted me to attend the party dressed in the royal blue gown...Later that day, at the party, I came downstairs joining the others, I wore Mr Smith dress and as I approached him talking to
After searching for Richard , and not a sign of him coming anywhere, it was getting late, like so late, I couldn't fit further to search for him again, I decided to go back home and maybe try to call him..I can count the time I phoned him,yet his number kept on sending me to voicemail.I wonder where he could have been?...The next morning, I slept sleeping at the center of my bed, just then , I overheard Mr Smith screaming, I didn't get to think two times about going down to see what was happening, I came downstairs and found him scolding his son..His grown up son_ Richard, who's head was bent down from his dad's angry gaze..."How can you be this stupid, have you lost your goddam mind,,?". Said Mr Smith as he approached his son, whacking his head_ Richard didn't take the chance to retaliate or even speak back to his father..He stood there allowing his dad to hit him countless times, what's happening?.. Mr Smith saw me approaching to his direction, he again slapped his son and f
I went to my bedroom to change, a dress was already at my bed waiting for me, later I got downstairs on Mr Smiths behest, I walked down and went straight to the couch reserved specially for Richard and myself.I was the first to seat down, when Richard was forcedly pushed to the couch by his dad, Mr Smith gently careessed my cheeks before leaving."You're at fault for Everything happening," Said Richard as he blamed me for everything "I'm sorry, so I look.like I am enjoying everything that's happening,?" I slowly moved my mouth to his ears who he could hear me properly."Oh please," Richard grunt and pulls away from getting close to me, "you're mostly enjoying this,". He tells latching his eyes away..."You must be a Lunatic," I said and faced away from himAt the couch, Mr Smith later comes over, he held my hand and that is his son and walked both of us to the center of the party.He made us face the guests there and announced once again about the engagement.The rings was brough
We both reached home after the Photoshoot, I went to the kitchen to get a glass of water while Richard went up to his bedroom instead, I brought out a bottle water from its can and emptied it in a go, I turned back to Leave, I wasn't expecting to see anyone but I caught Mr Smith by the kitchen table, resting his hand to his head, and was looking right at me."Good day Beatrice, I see you're back,?" He puts his hand away but drops it on the table.."Good day sir, and yes I'm back,". I walked some few steps away from the fridge_ Mr Smith Shakes his head at me.."That's good and yes," he takes a look by the door checking to see if anyone was approaching before finishing his statement."I've been hoping to speak with you alone, Beatrice" he tells Me.."What exactly sir hope everything is okay,?" I said thinking out loud.."Yes ," he affirms, "however I've been wanting to say thank you for everything," he walks away from the kitchen table coming to me."Thanks for what sir,?". I asked."T
When we got down to from the car after reaching the office, I went first to meet Mr Smith, he turns and gave me an alluring smile as we both approached the door to the elevator that led to his office..Richard tells he had to pick up some documents by the finance department and so was the first person to leave_ Mr Smith and I went up and as we reached the second floor, he and I stepped out together_ I look while walking further to his office, Mr Smith had his hands tied on to the other, there was something definitely strange happening..We got to his office."Thank you, Beatrice," he tells going inside."You're welcome sir," I said moving past his office door, I was just some few steps closer to my office when I remembered I was still holding unto the documents he had asked me to bring along_ I turned going back to give him the document, I knock on the door and as I walked Inside, I met Mr Smith on the ground, shaking_ the way epileptic patients does ..Fear gripped me_ I throw away
I bearly got close whene he takes out a hand back and stopped me from approaching another step closer to his bench."What are you doing here, go away Beatrice,!" He spoke moving gestures at me.."No! I won't," I stepped a feet forward, " what do you think you're doing, why are you drinking,?". I asked when he turned back and latched out on my face.."Are you seriously asking me,!" He yelled getting up from the bench, he takes a feet forward my way but tripped over his other feet, he falls down hitting his hands on the ground."Hey, please be careful," I said as I tried to assist."Don't touch me Beatrice,!" He pulled his hands away from touching me..He leaned the other on the benches hand and got back up to his two feet."It's all your fault, you caused this,". He admits to my face, moving forward with his hands out to get me..I leaned back."What do you mean, because trust me I do not think I am the cause of everything, you're the entire reasons why your dad is hell bent on di
