What they never knew I like you
"You can't tell me that Ashley. You've been doing this before and I didn't say anything. I'm not going to be taking it lightly with you this time." I said angrily."It's not yours. I've told you." She said in her annoying tiny voice. This bitch was testing me. She's been taking my designs and claiming it as her own and this is not the first time it has happened. She uses them to gain favour from our boss. At first I didn't say anything, thinking I was mistaken. But she's done it twice and the third time was a kind of bait I laid down for her and she took it hook, line and sinker. "That's what you think." I said to her. She's lucky we were alone this room. I went to the table and brought out my old design pad as the design an was old one. I flipped to the exact page of the design which was already old. Her eyes widedened when she saw it."See. Is it still yours now?? Why don't you just cut it and save us both from the stress of looking stupid?" "I….I…." She stamered. Ashley has been

Is it possible to be on earth and feel like you are in heaven? Feeling like the butterflies in your stomach will never stop? That is the exact feeling I've been having this past months.Charles and I have been going out for the past three months and I can say with all affirmation that they have been the best days of my life. He was so sweet and how he has been getting to see me everyday since then gets past me, because of the amount of work he has to do. He sends flowers to me at random times at work. My colleagues have been teasing me a lot about the secret admirer I have. I didn't tell anyone anything about the fact that I was dating our boss's son. That particular part still bugs me. I told him not to tell anyone about us because I was scared of his mother and I didn't want us to break up. I have this feeling that if she knows, she wouldn't want us to be together, even though he was totally ready to go public with it.There is another problem I have right now. I think I'm pregnant.
Last Updated : 2023-02-09What they never knew He would not have played me right??
6 months laterI missed him like crazy. I stared out the window of my house. The weather has been recently nice but I've been in a sour mood for the past two days because I was mad at Charles. I told him I didn't want to see him at all, so we've not seen each other in two days. He's been calling but I was not picking up. The baby had to kick at that particular moment. It had random moments of kicking. Especially times when I'm thinking about it's father. I didn't want to know the gender of the baby yet and Charles agreed too."You miss daddy?? I miss him too." I rubbed my tummy, loving the feeling. I'm not angry anymore so I decided to go over to his place. It is a Saturday, so he should be home. I didn't want to call him to tell him that I was coming.I dressed up, grabbed the keys to my car and walked out of the house. Charles bought me a car few months back, saying he wanted me to be comfortable and all that stuff. He literally buys me something anytime he comes to see me. He spoi

Gwen“Here you go” I said handing the contract I just signed over to Jeffery my secretary. Make sure you tell them to bring in the exact fabrics we ordered.”“Yes boss.” He said with a fake salute and walked out. I shook my head and turned my chair around to face the glass wall behind me and I looked down at the city from here. Doing this gave me a sense of approval of the good I have done for myself over the years and it kind of relaxes me.If I was told I’d be in this position almost seven years ago, I would have laughed it off. After what happened with Charles… just thinking about him brought me so much heartache that I didn’t expect and it happens so constantly that there is nothing I can do about it anymore as my daughter Charlie is a spitting image of her father. I don’t let her go out too much in fear that she might meet an aquintance or someone that knows her father. And I was not ready to give my daughter up. After the incident, I left the city for good. I went cold and left n
Last Updated : 2023-04-21What they never knew Hello, Mr Emmett
GwenI can say that meeting up with Zuri Roy was one of the most ecstatic moments of my life. She was such an amazing and pretty woman. Contrary to what people thought about celebrities in general, she out all that thought to shame. She was so adorable and cute. She commended all the works I've done saying she already saw some of them and liked them. I just knew that I will not go wrong with this one and it will give my clothing line more fame than it had. I looked outside of the door that she just left and I smiled as I rolled the chair I was sitting on in the conference room. I had asked to walk her out, but she said not to worry. She insisted and I said okay. Tam was literally blushing as soon as she walked out of the room."This is soooo huge gurrll." She said and I nodded, still having that smile on my face. I looked at the contract in front of me that she just signed and I smiled in content. This had to be one of the biggest achievements I have had since I started in this bu
Last Updated : 2023-09-20What they never knew Charlie
CharlesMy mood was very sour. I think sour was an understatement at how I felt right now. My day had started off rough when my mother had called me again. I already told her to stop contacting after the thing that happened between us like three years ago.She called me to set me up with one of her friend's children again like that was not what caused us to have a fallout in the first place. "Mr Emmett, your next meeting is in a few minutes. Five minutes to be precise. And they are in the conference room already." The blonde lady who I can't seem to remember her name said to me, and I nodded stifly.I've switched so much secretaries, I can't place their names any longer. They all had one hidden agenda or the other. It was either they wanted to sleep with me or wanted to garner information about my company, which, I caught them from the get go. "I'll be with them shortly." I said to her and she left. This one seemed like a decent human being. And she does not have any skeleton in her
Last Updated : 2023-10-01What they never knew My child, not our child
GwenMy legs gave out immediately he walked out of the room. Tam, who had seen our exchange and had figured out what happened was actually there to hold me. My head was banging. Everything seemed fuzy in my eyes. Tears stung the back of my eyes and they were blurry. I could not see straight. My breathing suddenly started getting shorter. It was hard for me to catch my breath and I could not get it together."Hey, hey, babe. Calm down. Don't do this, please." I heard as Tam picked up her bag to rummage it. Probably to check if there was an inhaler there. It had become an habit for her when my attacks became frequent. "There, there. Slowly." She said as I dragged in whatever was inside the inhaler. I've always hated it. The tang that came along with the puff from the thing irritated me lots. But there was nothing I could do. Especially in situations like this. I had panic attacks sometimes. It mostly happened when I had nightmares from the day I was pushed down the stairs. Or faintl

Charles"I never thought you'd reach out to me first." The annoying voice of Kaden sounded as I removed the ear muffs that were on my ears and dropped the gun in my hand as the target paper came towards me. "You've said that a thousand times already. Say something different." I said dismissively. "Oh, come on. Don't be so cold to your one and only friend. I know there is something up with you." No shit Sherlock. There was definitely something wrong with and it had to do with one particular short brunette who I had met after almost seven years. "So, what's up? What got you in a so shitty mood, you had to come to the shooting range today?" He said.I had to relieve the stress that had weighed on me since I saw her some hours ago. And coming here normally would actually do relieve me. But, right now, I wasn't feeling much better than when I came in."Shit." "Yeah. Something is definitely up." He said as I walked out of the shooting room with him hot on my heels. "I don't want to ta

What they never knew Where did we stop?
GwenI should stop this. This is not okay at all. I should not indulge in it. I should make him pay for doing this to me. He had no right whatsoever to touch me this way or make me feel the things that he was making me feel. This was all wrong. I should not feel horny because my ex-fiancee was touching me all over, and I was allowing him to. I indulged him. This is not me. Not at all.The fact that I was the strong one that did not allow any man to touch me for all these years does not mean that I did not have any self-respect or that I didn't have needs. I was not attracted to other men mainly. But there were some other nights where my feelings got the best of me and I touched myself thinking of him. It has only been him for me. No other man. Still, it doesn't make any sense that I succumb like this. “Stop, this Charles. Let go of me.” I said with all of the strength I had and pushed his head away from my boobs. My hands were on either side of his head, and I was about to remove
What they never knew The audacity only I have
GwenThe pressure in front of my head was building, and I knew I had to stop working, or I'd pass out, or something worse would happen. I looked around through the windows and no one was in their cubicle any longer. It was just me. I took the cup of coffee to sip again but then I discovered that there was nothing in it any longer. Well, shit. I was thinking of going to the employees’ common room that was on this floor to see if I could get something that would keep me for a while when my phone started ringing. Looking at it, it was Adeline. A tired smile made its way to my face. It's been a while since I spoke to her. God knows I'm a bad person. “Adeline.” I dragged out and I'm sure my tiredness showed with the way I said her name. I might as well have given myself up. “Tell me you're in your house right now.” She said sternly in her usual tone. I smiled. “I'm at home, not the house.” I taunted. I knew she'd understand the wordplay. “Can you stop pushing yourself so hard already
What they never knew I hate you
GwenRain splattered on the sidewalk, and everywhere looked a bit messy, but that did not stop people from going to work or getting what they had to do. Everywhere was so busy I blamed myself a little for wanting to go out to get myself coffee. I did it in an attempt to walk and stretch a little from work. But then, since I got to this place, I've had my foot stepped on, been bumped into and my purse thrown to the ground. Who knew the whole of this street would be this busy? But then, I loved my walks when I had the chance to have them which wasn't every time. I take them up when I have the chance. And now, I needed to clear my head about a few things. My phone buzzed in my pocket and I made sure I was on the safe side before I brought it out of my pocket to avoid any more issues this evening. The reason I am drinking coffee this time of the day is that I am staying overnight at work. “Hello.” I swiped the caller ID and spoke into the phone without checking the caller. “You bette
What they never knew We needed to talk
Gwen's POV “What?!” The whole room resonated with her shout. I almost jumped out of my chair in response to her reaction. It was not surprising though. She always reacted overly. “Are you saying what I think you're saying?” She asked in a hushed tone like someone would walk in and catch her. I shrugged in reply. “What do you think?” I said silently. I felt a little embarrassed and I'm sure my cheeks turned pink just confessing to her what I'd done. “I know you two have a past, and the man is fine as hell, but he's the enemy and you know it.” She sounded with so much conviction that I felt like a child who had been scolded by her mother. “I know. I know. I…I..don't even know how to explain myself right now. It just happened.” I said to her almost in a lamenting voice. “No matter what happens, he's still your enemy for now. Fine, you work together a little but you should know that he wants to take your child away from you. Well, I'm sure that is what will happen if he knows about
What they never knew We almost had sex
Gwen's POV I sighed gently as I placed my head on the window sill beside my dress. Funny how I could not bring myself to sleep all these days. So instead of wasting the days away, I worked my ass off instead. I didn't give room for unnecessary thoughts even though they came along. Between different meetings and work calls, I made sure that there was still work in between. There is no avenue for unnecessary thoughts. Why? Because they were not worth it. Tam has been on my ass, telling me to rest and all, but how can I tell her the reason why I am working myself so hard was that I didn't want to be a scapegoat for my thoughts of my ex-fiancee and what I allowed him to do to me? Even the thought of it made my cheek burn. “Boss?” I jerked back to the present when I felt someone tap me. “Yes?” I sighed inwardly, not liking the fact that I went off again. “I'm sorry. Did you say something?” I asked. “No. I wanted to remind you that you are done and the dress needs to be taken to the s
What they never knew You taste like heaven
Charles POV I knew what was going on in her mind and what she meant to do by doing this. I knew that she planned to hate me because of this later and probably pin it all on me. But even after knowing all of this, I still indulged her. I could not resist. She knew how much she affected me. The effect she had on me, no woman has ever held a candlelight even up to it, and she'd use that against me. I hated how much I loved the feel of her lips against mine and how warm it felt. It felt like being home after a long time. She felt like home. Bringing myself to the present, I pulled away from her gently. My eyes were still closed, but I could still feel her eyes on me. I forced them open to look at her. Desire hazed her eyes. She missed me too. She knew deep in her mind that we belonged together, and there was nothing that could stop whatever it was that was going on between us right now. I hate how much it hurts. “Don't do this, Gwen. Pl..please.” I hate how weak I become bec
What they never knew Shut the fuck up
“I'll drop you off at home.” His voice jerked me out of the thoughts that was swirling in my head. Since our ordeal the other time, I've not had it in me to sleep at all. I could not close my eyes talk less sleep. “What?” “You have made it a habit of making me repeat what I say right?” He replied me. “Oh. Sorry. But I can get myself home by myself.” I said to him. I was already planning on doing so before he said it. I stood up from the bed ignoring his presence and made my way to the bathroom. Needing to wash my face and put myself in order before I left. I felt much more better than I was throughout the whole of yesterday. Only God knows what he gave to me. But whatever it is, I really appreciated it. It was like I as never sick. I sighed as I threw water on my face. After I was done with that, I threw my hair up in a messy bun. It was strange how I was not shy around the man to say the least. There should be this level of shyness where I should feel like he should not see my
What they never knew You're so predictable
I shut my eyes immediately when I opened them. They felt too heavy. I felt as though bricks were tied at the edge of my eyes and pulled them apart. This is really terrible. After a few minutes of battling within myself, I forced myself to open my eyes. The ceiling looked unfamiliar so a feeling of fear gripped me. What was I doing in this place? Before I could put two and two together, I heard Charles' voice. “Calm down. You're safe.” Immediately I heard his voice, my frayed nerves calmed instantly. Don't ask me why, I don't know why myself. It's a reflex reaction that just happened. I looked towards the direction of where the voice came from and I saw him sitting on a chair that was somewhere in the corner of the room. He had a book in his hands like he was reading it and a pair of glasses perched on his nose. Don't ask me how I can see that too, I just saw it. But when did he start using glasses? The question found its way to my mind. “You like it? I started using it a few year
What they never knew You better get used to it.
I was sitting in his arms in a comfortable silence a few minutes later. It felt like the silence was comfortable but it was nowhere near the turmoil going on within me. As much as I wanted to be in his arms, we needed to talk. Maybe I've been overreacting all of these while. Maybe it was all my fault. I can't get over the fact of what happened to him. It's exhilarating. “We need to talk.” I said simply and I felt him stiffen behind me. Here goes nothing and everything. “Yeah. We need to.” He affirmed and I nodded like I wanted his permission to actually go ahead to talk. “About Charlie, I think we can work around something. Probably get you to meet her and introduce you to her officially.” I said. It was easier said than I had anticipated or expected. I did not expect it to be that easy for me to say. Maybe I already knew that this day would come and that I'd have to talk about it sooner or later. And my mind knew that I could turn Charles away for so long. Hearing about the ac
