As Nathan gently pushed the door, he wheeled her into the room and towards the bed.After pushing her towards the bed, he gently knelt before her while staring deep into her eyes.“I will help you get on the bed” he sounded like he was asking for her permission which he was, he didn’t want to make her feel uncomfortable in any way.“I am not that weak to stand up Nathan” Bianca responded, “I can manage”“Are you sure?”“Yes, I am” she responded, “thank you”He nodded and stood up, “I will make a bowl of soup for you, just let me know if you need anything else”After he was done, he smiled at her a little before making his way out of the room.Heaving a sigh, Bianca gently pulled herself out of the wheelchair and gently lowered herself on the bed while picking up her phone again.Dialing a number, she pressed the phone against her ear and the person from the other end answered almost immediately.“Hello, Bianca” Xavier’s voice filtered into her ears, “i called but Nathan was the one wh
Bianca gulped when he placed his hand underneath her chin, this was not what she was expecting and heaven genuinely knew she was not aware of what she was wearing.“I will just change and come back” she managed to say while trying to push him off but the big boss didn’t budge, he kept staring down at her beautiful figure while gulping.“You can not tempt me and blame me for what is going to happen now Audrey, will you?” He asked her as his hand gently snaked round her waist and he pulled her closer.Bianca gasped a little as their bodies touched, this was not what she was expecting but why was she so weak? She found it hard to even push him off.Maybe because looking at him from up close, he looked more handsome and she could see Paige in him.For a moment she wanted to throw everything away and just jump into his embrace. She wanted to tell him how much she still….Bianca immediately shook her head, she was not meant to be thinking that way. How could she still love a man who killed
Bianca gently opened her eyes and for a moment she was trying to understand what was happening, it was still dark outside and she could see snow falling from the window.Her lips curled into a gentle smile as the thought of her daughter filled her mind. Paige was a lover of snow and anytime snow was falling, she used to be elated and happy.Just as she tried to move, she felt a strong arm around her waist and this was when reality dawned on her. Not only was she naked but Nathan was lying beside her and his hand was snaked around her waist.The memories of the night before became fresh in her head and she could feel the color rush on her face. Nathan took her times without numbers like he had been starved of sex from his previous life and she couldn’t even stop him. It was like she was under hypnosis and kept allowing him to do what he wanted.But the more she thought about it, the more she got angry. The fact that he was married to her sister and she didn’t even think about that made
Dressed in a pair of blue pants and a crisp white shirt neatly tucked away in his pants, Nathan made his way down the stairs while trying to tie his hair tie in a more suitable manner.The moment she saw Audrey with a cup of coffee, he gulped before walking towards a sofa.She was also wearing a pair of blue flay pants and a white crop top to match. She also had a scarf on her hair, it was like two of them planned the dressing when it was merely a coincidence.When Bianca saw that they were both dressed in the same way, she immediately felt somehow and opted to change it. This was too big a coincidence for her to handle.“We should get going to the airport now” the big boss told her, “we won’t want to be late”“I will just change my dress, I will be down in a jiffy” she responded and made to move but he stopped her, his forehead creasing into a slight frown.“What do you mean you want to change your clothes? What is wrong with it?”“Nothing” she muttered underneath her breath, “i just
“Mummy!!!” Little Paige screamed in excitement as she pounced into her mother’s embrace and tears welled up in her eyes.It has been so long since she saw her daughter and her joy knew no bounds. How Bianca wished she could take her little bundle of joy with her back to America.“How are you doing baby?” She wrapped her daughter in her embrace, “mummy has missed you so much”“I missed you too mummy” Paige responded as she looked over her mother’s shoulder and saw her favorite person behind her.Her lips curled into a genuine smile as she immediately let go of her mother and rushed towards Nathan who immediately went on his knees and pulled her into his warm embrace.The moment their bodies came in contact, he could feel a sense of fatherliness emanate from him. He wanted to take care of her and tell her how much he loved her, he wanted to tell her he was her father and he was ready to do anything for her.“I thought you were not going to come, uncle” Paige said happily still in his a
After putting her to sleep, Nathan gently made his way out of the room and he was stunned to see aunt Aurora standing by the door and she didn’t look pleased at all. She had a a sneer on her face and it seemed like she was going to kill him at any chance she got.“Uhmm, I didn’t see you there”“Can we have a chat outside in the garden?” The old lady asked, her eyes staring back at him in disdain.“Sure, we can”After talking she led the way and in no time they were both at the garden and she ushered him to a chair, her eyes still lingering on him.“What do you want to talk about ma’am?” He asked after a while, since she was Audrey’s aunt he had to be nice to her. If it was someone else, he would have thought the person a good lesson. Only Audrey was allowed to order him around as per her choice.“What exactly is your plan, Nathan Hernandez?” The old lady inquired after a while, this time her eyes were darting across the whole place.Her statement made his eyebrows scrunch into a slig
Vanessa had a glass of wine twirling in her hand and her eyes were fixated on the table in front of her when a maid approached her and gently bowed to her.“Ma’am, someone is here to see you”“Who is it?” She asked.“He says he is Mr Xavier”At the mention of his name, her lips curled into a knowing smile and she dropped the wine glass on the table.“Let him in”“Yes ma’am” the maid bowed and hastened outside again while Vanessa crossed one leg over another waiting for her visitor.After a few minutes, the maid led Xavier into the room and the smirk on her face intensified.He was dressed in a pair of joggers and a white T-shirt, his hair was pulled back in a neat bun and he had a pair of glasses over his face. He was surely younger than Nathan Hernandez but he was just as handsome. Girls drooled over him wherever he went and Vanessa would have been In the mix if she was not married to the number one man in the country, it was a big flex for her.“I wasn’t expecting you to come to me,
It was already past seven in the evening when Nathan made his way downstairs from his daughter’s room. After having an argument with Bianca, he decided to book a hotel for the night and moreover he didn’t want to stay in a house full of women.“Where are you going?” Aunt Aurora, who was seated in the living room, asked him, “I cleaned up the guest room for you,” she added.“Thank you aunty but I have already booked a hotel, I will come back tomorrow to check on her”“Did you tell Bianca you were leaving?”He shrugged as a painful smile appeared on his face,“She wouldn’t care, thank you so much for taking care of my daughter. I really appreciate”“I am doing it for my niece and not you, Nathan” she told him and he nodded at her.“I will take my leave now”Aunt Aurora didn’t bother to stop him, she knew he was going through a lot too. It was not easy for him just as it was not easy for Bianca.“Wait” a voice called out to him and he halted, Bianca was coming down from the stairs and s
The door to his office pushed open and she gently sauntered into the room. Xavier, who was busy with a document, immediately turned his attention to her and stood up. He didn’t flash her any smile as usual but part of him was happy to have her back.“Hey, you”“Aren’t you excited to see me?” Bianca asked him, her face also expressionless.“You are finally here” Xavier forced himself to say, “i actually thought you might not come back but here you are”“Are you upset?” Bianca couldn’t help but ask him as he came face to face with her, “why…“Why?” Xavier flared up while raking his hand through his hair, “how can you casually walk into my office and ask if I am upset B? Of course I am” he paused for a moment, his eyes not leaving hers for even a second,“ I am upset and it's all your fault. How could you just discard me after being with Nathan? Do I mean nothing to you at all?“I said we were going to talk about it when I get back, right?” She inquired, “and I am sorry okay? I was just v
Audrey was all set and ready to leave, she was just giving the finishing touches to her hair when her door pushed open and her aunt sauntered into the room with a smile on her face.“I can see you are all ready to leave?” She asked Bianca while lowering herself on the bed.“Yes aunt” she replied, “fashion week starts next week, I have to put the finishing touches to things”“Well” aunt Aurora shrugged, “your flight leaves in an hour, I was hoping you could spare me a few minutes. I want to discuss something with you, child”A small frown appeared on Bianca’s forehead, now she was wondering what her aunt wanted to talk about.“Of course aunt” she walked over to the bed and gently perched on it, “I am all ears”Aunt Aurora heaved a sigh before turning her full attention to Bianca, a look of pain and sadness looming in her eyes.“My dear” she began almost immediately, “don’t you think it is high time you forgive Nathan for what he did to you?”The frown on Bianca’s face intensified and s
The moment Nathan’s car came to a halt in front of the building, he immediately unbuttoned his suit before making his way towards the reception.This was one of the biggest hotels in New York and he was wondering why his blackmailer asked him to be here. Wasn’t this too exquisite?“Hello sir” the receptionist flashed him a smile, “welcome to sugar”“I am here to see Mr Stefan,” he answered.“One second” the lady muttered and began to type away on her system. After a few seconds, she looked up at him again with a smile on her lips.“Yes, he is expecting you. He is by the poolside”With one last nod, he made his way towards the pool and only one man was seated under a nice shade. Nathan knew he was the caller and didn’t waste time in walking toward him but he was immediately stopped by his guards, a gesture that made his forehead crease into a frown.“Let him go,” Stefan said from where he was seated.Rolling his eyes, the big boss walked up to him and he didn’t even bother to hide the
Dressed in a pair of blue tailored suit, Nathan pulled his hair into a neat bun before making his way out of the room. It was a weekend and everyone was at home, including audrey. It was already an hour to his flight, he didn’t want to miss it. As much as he wanted to stay with Paige, he knew Esperanza also needed him.So with that at the back of his head, he heaved a sigh before walking up to Paige who looked like she was about to cry.“Are you really leaving?” Even if she was just a child, Paige had come to love Nathan more than anything in the world. She was not aware of her relationship with him yet but despite that, she loved him more than the world,“I thought you said you wanted to stay with me”Nathan gently cupped her tiny hands in his own hands and pressed a kiss on her forehead, he felt like a groom leaving his wife behind at the wedding alter,“I have to leave, princess” he said after a while, “something urgent came up and I have to go okay?”“But can I come with you?” Tea
It was already past eight in the night when a soft knock resonated on the door of the room and Bianca gently opened her eyes before making her way to the door and when she saw who it was, her countenance changed. What the heck was he doing so late at night? Wasn’t he tired? Her head was throbbing and she just wanted to go back to bed.“Why are you here, Nathan?” She asked him from the door, not bothering to even invite him into the room, “it is already so late and you are here?”“Can we talk?” The big boss questioned, his voice bland and without any emotions, “I can not sleep and I think we should talk”Bianca rolled her eyes to the back of her head and glanced into the room. Her daughter was sleeping peacefully on the bed and she didn’t want to wake her up.“What exactly do you want to talk about Nathan?” She akdes again, “we have been talking without any new words, I am really not In the mood to talk to you”“We can either talk here in our daughter’s presence or away from her hearin
Xavier gulped at her question and he raked his hand through his hair. He was definitely not expecting what she had just said.He raked his hand through his hair as he stood up from his reclining chair and walked up to the large window that served as a wall in his office.“What are you saying, Bianca?” He was completely lost for words.“You like me, don’t you?” She asked from the other end, “I think we should get married, what do you think?“Why are you suddenly saying all this, B?” He couldn’t help but ask, “did Nathan do something? Are you okay? Should I come over?” She heaved a sigh from the other end and he realized she was just stressed out. His heart broke for a split second, he actually thought she meant it but she wanted to use him to get away from Nathan again. The mere thought of him annoyed me to the core of my being.“You know what?” Bianca began to talk again, “it was a mistake” not bothering to wait for his response, she ended the call while Xavier balled his hand into a
Dressed in a pair of black flay pants and a crisp white shirt neatly tucked into her pants, Louisa made her way into the vip room and she was not surprised to see him standing near the window looking as dashing as always.This was the first man she ever fell in love with and even if she knew that nothing was ever going to happen between them again, she was quite aware that Stefan was always ready to do anything for her. Anything at all.With that at the back of her head, she pressed towards him with an expressionless look hovering over her face.When Stefan heard her walk into the room, he immediately turned to her and for a moment he was tongue tied. This was the woman he had not seen face to face for years and she still looked stunning, how he wished.“I thought you were not going to come” he said while taking slow steps towards her“And here I am”Louisa answered, “we should get straight to business”After talking, she slowly lowered herself on the chair in the room while crossing o
A tall looking man was seated on a reclining chair, a cigarette protruding from his mouth while a glass of whiskey is seated beside him.He is well built with his muscles peeking out of his crisp white shirt while his bare chest had a lot of visible tattoos.His door pushed open and another man sauntered into the room before bowing lightly.“Boss” he greeted, “you sent for me”“I have a job for you, Augusto” he turned his attention to the man who had just entered the room.“I am at your service boss” Augusto answered, “just give the order”“Louisa called,” the man announced again and Augusto's forehead creased into a slight frown when he heard the name. This was a name he had not heard for years and suddenly she was back into their lives? How was that even possible! How did she even get Stefan’s number again?“You are surprised right?” Stefan inquired, “I can see the look on your face” he puffed smoke out of his mouth again.“I have not heard her name for years now boss” Augusto respo
It was already past seven in the evening when Nathan made his way downstairs from his daughter’s room. After having an argument with Bianca, he decided to book a hotel for the night and moreover he didn’t want to stay in a house full of women.“Where are you going?” Aunt Aurora, who was seated in the living room, asked him, “I cleaned up the guest room for you,” she added.“Thank you aunty but I have already booked a hotel, I will come back tomorrow to check on her”“Did you tell Bianca you were leaving?”He shrugged as a painful smile appeared on his face,“She wouldn’t care, thank you so much for taking care of my daughter.
