Mrs Hernandez was busy typing something on her laptop when the office door pushed open and Bruno entered with an expressionless look on his face. He was wondering whether telling her who was here to see her was the ideal thing but he had to.

Louisa looked up from her laptop and her forehead creased into a frown when she saw the look on Bruno’s face.

“Are you okay?” She asked him, “why are you standing there like that”

“Someone is here to see you ma’am” he finally spoke up.

“Who?” Mrs Hernandez asked back with uncertainty, “and why didn’t you bring the person in?”

“Vanessa is here to see you ma’am” Bruno finally dropped the bombshell and the old lady shot out of her seat, she was surprised and stunned at the same time.

“What did you say?” Louisa wanted to be sure she heard him correctly. She wanted to be sure that it was the same Vanessa who ran away on her wedding day that had the guts to come back to her office and request to see her.

“She is in the lounge ma’am”

    “Did you see anyone follow me?” She asked in a scared tone and Bruno was taken aback. What could have made her so scared in just a short amount of time?”“Are you okay?”“Did you see anyone come into the building with me?” Vanessa yelled again, she could feel the fear in her heart as it thumped fast against her rib cage.“This is a big company, Nessa. Everyone and anyone can come and go. It is not limited to only one person at a time”“That bastard” she muttered under her breath before slumping on one of the chairs, “please can I have a glass of water?”“Sure” Bruno was not sure what was wrong with her but he could see she was clearly worried and decided to leave her alone.After a while Bruno came came back with the water and handed it to her before trying to leave but she called him back.“Can you tell Mrs Hernandez that I have to leave for something important but I will be at her house later in the evening”After that, she handed him the glass cup before sauntering out of the office

I don’t think we owe each other anything anymore” tears already welled up in her eyes as she begged.“Princess” Jack’s lips curled into another smile as he advanced towards her, “you talk like we are not in love with each other, we both know the truth”Her phone began to ring again and this time Jack stretched out his hand towards her,“Answer it”Vanessa snatched the phone and pressed it against her ears.“Hello” here voice was quivering in fear, “sorry I missed your call”“Are you okay?” Nathan asked from the other end, “why do you sound so scared?”“I am…I am okay” a fake smile appeared on her lips, “I wasn’t expecting your call”She was about to talk when Jack walked up to her and snaked his hand around her waist which made a gasp to escape he

    “You can’t hurt me more than you already have Nathan and that’s it” Audrey said after a while, “you have tortured me way more than you already should and I don’t think I will ever get affected by it again” her voice was quivering in sadness and Nathan could see right through her facade which made his own lips curl into a mocking smile.“You made me feel pity towards you Audrey, the nerve of you to even think you have known everything I want to do with you”“I will watch you try then” after that she walked away with the glass of wine still in her hands and tears threatening to fall out of her eyes.This was not the Nathan she knew and it was killing her, this was not the man she fell in love with.

    After cleaning for a few seconds, Audrey angrily stopped and turned to face Louisa who was about to grab a drink from the fridge“I should have known you were up to no good when you forced me into this situation, I don’t even blame you for the tiniest thing but this is surely a lesson for another day”“Even a tramp like you will talk to me anyhow now?” The old lady was pissed, “I made you enjoy the life of luxury you have experienced so don’t even think of using that tone with me young lady”Audrey was silent, exchanging words with this old lady was not going to change the fact that what had happened had happened, it was now her cross to carry.“If for anything, you should be happy for the fact that I even allowed you to be close to my son when i know you were going to be a bad influence on him”And with that, Mrs Hernandez sauntered out of the kitchen while Audrey bit back a tear, she was not going to cry again.

    The rain was splattering on the window softly when the door pushed open and Audrey entered slowly to see Nathan sprawled on his bed with his bare chest and well toned muscles.For a split second Audrey was mesmerized by him again, how could someone have such a nice body? His hair was covering his face and she couldn’t help but ogle at how tall he looked and how sexy he looked in his shorts. This was the Nathan she fell in love with and not the maniac that was threatening her life.“You will continue to ogle or actually come read to me?”Once again she was taken aback, how did he know she was ogling?“Sorry” she slowly walked into the room and made herself comfortable on the sofa while turning to him.“What book do you want me to read to you?”“What book do you have?”“Uhmm” she began to check her collections but he halted her.“Do you have something on gold digging?”Audrey didn’t quite understand him, “what do you mean?”Nathan’s lips curved into a mocking smile as he sat up, “I was

I literally know everything about this company, I am only following protocol or I would have come into the office myself”Shrugging his shoulder, he dropped his ball pen and gave her his whole attention.“Why are you here? Mrs Hernandez is not in the office”“I am not here for her, I am here to see you and discuss a few things with you before I finally l

    The car came to halt in front of the house and Vanessa alighted as her mouth hung open in awe. She was aware of the fact that Nathan had a knack for good things but seeing the magnificent building in front of her, she couldn’t help but marvel at the elegance of the building in front of her.“I will take your luggage into the house” Bunny announced and made his way into the house, this was when he came face to face with Audrey who was just coming down the stairs and her forehead creased into a frown when she saw bunny bringing in some weird luggage.“Do we have a visitor?” She asked with an uncertain expression on her face, “Nathan didn’t mention that”Bunny was skeptical for a moment, he didn’t know if he should tell her or not. “Who is it?” She inquired again.“It is Vanessa ma’am” he replied after a while and the look on her face changed slightly, she had a “Vanessa is here?” kind of look on her face.“What did you say?”“Mrs Hernandez asked me to pick her up from the airport” Bun

    “What nonsense are you saying now?” Audrey jumped from the bed while cleaning her eyes, “why would I be in love with him?” An expressionless look was hovering over her face while trying to bite back a tear, “you just got back and you are already feeling insecure about the fact that I love him?”“Do you love him, yes or no?” Vanessa retorted, “it is as simple as A B and C”“I don’t love him” Audrey forced herself to say, “are you satisfied now? Why are you even in my room? Just leave already”“You amaze me every single time Audrey, you killed mum and as if that was not enough for you, you also fell in love with Nathan. What kind of a girl are you?”“The type that will bash your head into a thousand pieces if you don’t get the hell out of the room right now, Vanessa”At first she was happy to see her sister, she was glad Vanessa was around but after seeing the way she acted, Audrey didn’t even want to breathe the same air as her.

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

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

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!

    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.
