Bryce stood there frozen to his spot as he stared at the back of his father, Devon, as he walked majestically out of his living room towards the exit. Every step Devon took, made Bryce feel like his father, Devon, had him where he wanted."So, are we going upstairs now?" came Susan's voice as she hung herself from Bryce's shoulders sounding seductive. Bryce's shifted his gaze to Susan who was still hunting from his shoulder with smiles covering her face and a stare of seduction."Get your slutty hands off me. Are you that desperate for a man to the extent that you lower your standard to a level of begging and throwing your dignity out of the window?" Bryce said with disdain and a frown on his face.Susan let go of Bryce's shoulder immediately and stared at him, her anger gradually rising as she processed Bryce's words. Bryce squeezes his face staring at her."Calling you a slut is even giving you credit because we know they at least charge their clients for their service. You are jus
Susan after making multiple turns finally found her way to the staircase. She quickly went down the stairs and found herself in the open space. The exit door was just a walk away from her left, and the living room was also a couple of walks away from her right. She requested an Uber and was soon out of Bryce's home. Josephine locked the main door as Susan left before returning to her room.Inside the Uber, on her way back to her apartment, Susan called Eva."Have you found Angela yet?" Susan asked."No, it's like she just vanished into theme air," Eva replied."Keep looking, I am sure she is hiding somewhere. Bryce seems to like her and I want to know why," Bryce said and the Uber driver looked at Susan briefly in the rearview mirror before focusing his gaze on the road."And about Bernard. When are you going to help me with him?" Eva asked. "Let the sun come up and I will tell you what to do," Susan replied before ending the call."Who are you, Angela? Why does Bryce like you?" Susa
"Hmm, I think, I need to make a call to someone," Susan said and retrieved her phone from her bag. She quickly dialled Devon's number and waited for the call to connect."Hmm," Susan heard a voice."Mr Moore, Bryce is at it again. Today he had an email circulated in the company that Angela Anderson is on sick leave. He is still looking for her and that means he would not go through with the engagement," Susan cried on the phone."Ah! So you are the one feeding my husband with this information?" Patricia replied to Susan and Susan removed the phone from her ears to check whom she had called.Mr Devon Moore was displayed on the phone screen. She had called the right person but Patricia had answered."I am sorry, Mrs Moore. Mr Moore tasked me with monitoring your son. I am only doing my job," Susan defended."I see," Patricia said. "This should be the last time, you call my husband," she warned and ended the call."Bitch!" Susan cursed and tossed the phone back into her bag.A&J GroupZ
"Fabian!" Zora called out to him and Angela lowered her head."I am sorry. Er.. something crossed my mind for a second," Fabian apologized staring at Zora and he shifted his gaze to Angela. "Welcome to A&J Group. We deal in building materials," he welcomed Angela offering her a handshake while standing to his feet."Thank you," Angela replied accepting the handshake.Zora watched the two especially Fabian who appeared to be in his world since he saw Angela."I am Fabian Manson, son and only billionaire heir of the Manson family," Fabian introduced and Zora cleared her throat."About the job," Zora reminded realizing what was happening."Oh yes," Fabian said still holding Angela's hand."She is married," Zora coughed the words out but Fabian appeared not to be paying attention to Zora."We will start the interview shortly," Fabian said and Angela pulled her hand from his feeling a bit awkward.After a brief conversation, Fabian went with Angela to the place prepared for the interview w
"What do you want in my office," Bernard said as he strode into the office."Well, I know you care a lot about Angela Anderson," Susan began and Bernard was suddenly interested in what she was saying. "I found her," she added."You are not playing any tricks, are you?" Bernard said and sat behind his desk."What would I gain from it?" Susan asked and Bernard realised there was nothing Susan would gain for lying about Angela's location.Bernard did not believe Angela was sick. He felt Bryce was hiding something. Even though he had no justification for his suspicion, he knew Bryce had never defended any woman who had worked with him as his secretary. So he was surprised when Bryce called and asked him to communicate with the senior management team, Angela was on sick leave whilst Angela had not sent any email."So where is she?" Bernard asked. "She is meeting up with someone tonight. I will give you the details and you can meet her instead," Susan said. "Look, Mr Moore is interested in
Bernard continued to kiss Eva who responded excitedly. Her hands unbuttoned Bernard's shirt and soon she tossed it away. She quickly took her one-piece clothes off and she ended up on the bed with Bernard in just her bikini. Bernard was very rough but Eva didn't care. Soon her panty and bra were off her body too. She unbuckled Bernard's belt and unbuttoned his pants freeing his shaft which was standing tall and mighty. Eva impaled herself with it and Bernard began to pound her like his life dependent on it. Eva let out a moan enjoying the rough passionate moment with Bernard. Bernard held Eva by the neck and pressed her down while he pounded away.At Zora's place, Zora was back home and she and Angela discussed what to do the next day."I am so happy for you," Zora said excitedly, raising the glass of water she was holding. "To a new beginning," she toasts."Thanks," Angela said pretending to be holding a glass too and she clicked it to Zora's."Okay, so hopefully, you start your orie
The night slowly passed by and it was soon morning. Zora was first to wake up and her movement woke Angela up. The two ladies got ready for work. Zora kept teasing Angela all through about what happened in the middle of the night till they left the apartment for work.At Bryce's family home, Elena was also up getting ready for her class but she wanted to meet her friend who would lead her to Zora, so she decided to leave home earlier than her usual time. Devon came downstairs and met Elena coming from the kitchen holding a cup of coffee fully dressed."And where are you going this early? Your class do not start until 11 am and it's just a 45 minutes drive from here," Devon asked looking at the clock on the wall which read 7 am."I am meeting up with a friend for something very important," Elena replied."What is so important, you have to leave this house early to meet up with the person? How about the person come over to you," Devon said."Dad, I am not a kid any more. I can take care
"Let's confirm first, that is where she is staying now and I will pay her a visit," Bryce said.Marcus nodded and followed Bryce with the two others heading for the door. Soon they were on their way to Diamond Corporation. At a coffee shop in New York City, Elena was sitting behind a small table with a hot cup of coffee in hand. She occasionally looked in the direction of the door. She was waiting for her friend. She had already spent twenty minutes and her friend was unreachable via phone. She emptied the cup of coffee and called the waiter. She stood up and was about to leave when the door to the coffee shop opened. A young lady strode in and Elena smiled. "I would have a bottle of water please," Elena said to the waiter who was also about to leave after collecting his money."Yes ma'am," the waiter said."Monica, over here," Elena said waving her hand in the air.Monica stood at the entrance scanning the place for Elena. Her gaze quickly fell on the lady waving her hands in the ai
"I just called to inform you that Angela Anderson is Bryce's legally married wife and she is pregnant for him," the chief announced and Susan froze. "Susan, are you there?" the chief questioned, following Susan's long silence."Susan, are you alright?" Eva asked realizing Susan had been silent and staring in the same direction for a long time. "Susan!" she called out to her again, tapping her gently.Susan snapped out of her moment and realized the chief had been calling her name from the other end of the call."Yes, I am here," Susan replied with a frown. "Let me call you back," she added and slowly brought her hand down."What is it, Susan?" Eva asked curiously seeing how down Susan looked."Bryce is already married," the words escaped Susan's lips and Eva was surprised."What do you mean Bryce is already married? He married who?" Eva asked."Angela," Susan replied still in a state of shock."What!" Eva reacted. "When, how?" she asked."I don't know but she is even pregnant for him
"Fine, how much did he offer you for the job," Susan asked."20 million," Ian replied and Susan's eyes widened."20 million!" Susan repeated. "So you expect me to pay 60 million to you?" she asked."It's business babe," Ian replied nonchalantly."You said the highest bidder right," Susan said. "I will give you 30 million," she offered."No problem," Ian said. "Since you two are not at the same place. I will call Bryce back and let him know you offered me 30 million and see what he will add," he said."Fine, I will get you the 60 million," Susan said wondering where she was going to get such an amount from."Service sold at 60 million to you Ms Susan," Ian said. "I want my money by the close of today," he said."I will pay, but I need some time to raise that kind of money," Susan requested."Okay, I will get to work once I have my money," Ian replied."Okay, I will give you 20 million by close of today and I will bring the rest later," Susan negotiated."Okay. How about this, you give
Bryce left the office before noon back to his apartment. He was unhappy with what his father had just done but blamed himself. He could have taken the news down without addressing the employees the way he did. Now his father had seized the opportunity to announce to the whole company, that Susan was soon going to be his wife."I will never marry Susan, even if she is the last woman on earth," Bryce said to himself inside his room. "I have messed around enough. I need to put things in their place. Something is not right and I need to find out what that thing is," he added and fetched his phone. Bryce dialled a number and waited for the call to connect. "Hello, Ian. How are you doing?" Bryce greeted."All good," Ian replied. "I know you only call when there is a major issue. So what is it, your engagement news or the murder that hit your home?" he went straight to the point."I can handle the engagement case. I need your help with something else," Bryce said. "The woman accused of mur
"What happened?" Devon asked."Bryce called all the employees and informed them that the news about our relationship is fake," Susan whined."Calm down. I will take care of that," Devon consoled."Is not even that. He turned me into a laughing stock in the company. This is so humiliating," Susan continued to whine."I am coming over," Devon said. "I will have this resolved immediately," he added."Thank you," Susan appreciated and ended the call."So what now?" Eva anxiously asked after the call had ended."He is coming over to correct things," Susan said smiling."This old man does like you a lot," Eva commented."Yes, since my parents died, he has been like a father to me," Susan said and frowned. "I must say, he has been attentive to my needs more than my parents ever were as far back as I can remember," she added."Well, you told me, it was Bryce's fault that your parents died. So he might just be making up for it. Which is good," Eva said."Yes, well. It does work to my advantage
Back at the Police Headquarters, Mr Anderson had finished narrating the whole issue to Darren."My daughter is innocent. Here is some information we have which clearly shows the inconsistency in the investigation. An indication that something is not right," Mr Anderson said."I have heard everything you have said. I will assign one of my men to monitor the investigation going on at the central police station. I will let you know how we will proceed based on what we find," Darren said."Thank you so much," Mr Anderson appreciated and Darren walked them to their parked car outside.At Diamond Corporation, a controversy has already started following the news about Bryce and Susan being in a relationship which goes against the company's rule on relationship. The accompanying images to the news made it undeniable that Bryce and Susan had something going on. The company's rules against relationships among employees are one of the reasons why Bryce kept his marriage with Angela a secret. He
Back in the cell, Bryce pulled away from the hug and stared at Angela's sad tear-stained face holding her by the shoulder. He stared into her eyes and his heart ached. All he could read from her eyes was pain. He cared for her and believed in her innocence seeing her again. Now he needs to get hold of something to support what he thinks. He was unsure when or how it happened, but he felt her lips on his and gave in to the desire that travelled through his body. He kissed her. Angela did not protest. She allowed him to kiss her and she didn't even know what pushed her to accept his kiss. Bryce is fully aware that Angela has been accused of murdering two members of the Moore family and there is evidence proving her guilty. Angela on the other hand believes whoever murdered her parents is connected to the Moore family. So why are they both standing in a withholding cell, passionately kissing each other? Shouldn't they hate each other for the pain they both felt after losing a loved one
"I want to be alone," Bryce suddenly said to Devon's surprise."Son," Devon called out, staring at Bryce and Bryce suddenly looked okay."Please, Dad. Leave," Bryce said sternly."Son, you don't look good. How can I leave you alone?" Devon asked sounding concerned."I have lots of employees in this house," Bryce said and his father shook his head and was about to leave when Bryce stopped him. "Wait, can I have the video?" he asked and Devon just stared at him briefly before moving his fingers on his phone."It's in your email. Bryce, I know it's your first time falling in love with a woman, but you must let her go. She is bad news," Devon said but Bryce remained silent.Devon walked out of the house, leaving Bryce in the living room.Meanwhile, at the police headquarters, James and Mr Anderson were led to an office by a lady. She knocked and entered with James and Mr Anderson trailing behind her."Sir," the lady said and the man behind the desk, who was going through some papers raised
Susan's home, at 2 am, four hours after Bryce and Marcus had left, Susan slowly opened her eyes. Her head hurt so bad and her nose picked up a horrible smell. Her body was sticky. The light in her room was still on. She realized she was lying on the floor. She pushed herself up as she tried to recollect from memory what happened. She saw the vomit she was lying in and recalled everything. Feeling disgusted, she carefully got up from the floor and walked into the bathroom. She stood under the shower in the bikini and allowed the water to wash down her body before removing her panty and bra and dropping them in the bin. She put some shampoo into her hair and began to wash it. She realized immediately she had a cut at the back of her head. Her mind quickly went to the pain she felt at the back of her head before darkness covered her. After showering, she wrapped her hair in a towel and put on a bathrobe. She went for the mob and a mop bucket and cleaned the vomit from the floor annoyed h
Bryce moved his lips to Susan's neck and Susan ran her hand through Bryce's hair enjoying the passion burning inside her. Bryce's shirt was already opened. Susan just took it off him and tossed it to the side. She started tagging at his pants but Bryce suddenly froze."What is it?" Susan questioned wondering why Bryce suddenly stopped.Bryce suspended himself over Susan and stared down at her. His vision was still blurry and confusion rode his mind as a strong desire burned within him. He could not see the face of the person in bed with him clearly. Even though his body needed that satisfaction it didn't feel right. His mind was in chaos but something inside so strong stopped him from sleeping with the stranger lying on the bed.Susan lifted her body and captured Bryce's lips in another kiss but this time he didn't respond even though he didn't push her away."What is wrong?" Susan asked wondering what was happening.Bryce pushed himself off Susan still feeling something wasn't right
