"I think you need to use some more makeup on your face though." Khalid pointed to the small red mark on her face from her encounter with Karen.

Karen was on her way to another shoot when her phone rang, disrupting the peace of the car. The noise had broken the silence that had accompanied them all the way from the hotel to their current destination.She had flinched when it rang in her laps where her small handbag was rested.A few eyes turned to her. There were three other models in the limousine, the vehicle chosen as today's ride. They soon diverted their attentions back to the road, easing her of feeling uncomfortable."Have you heard the news?" An unrecognizable voice asked her from the other end. Whoever it was was calling her from the office landline.She didn't care much about the news unless...Her eyes widened. Could people have managed to publish that she and Cole had sex on their trip? Everyone must have have been on the look out for them ever since they heard about them working together. She shook her head, "what news

"Karen!" Cole was unable to catch up with her. His hands reflexively flew up to his head and he shook his head in fear. Someone from the other side had managed to catch her instead. He yanked her towards him and drew her close to his chest.Cole heaved a sigh of relief. The man seemed so determined because he didn't let her go. Karen looked at him like she was lost from her environment. He had a feeling it was because she hadn't expected the incident.Cole ran across the streets when he knew the road was free."Karen!" He pulled her out of the strange man's grip. He was still holding on to her by now which made him appear fishy to Cole. "Are you okay? What were you thinking? " He received her and hugged her to his chest.She didnt say anything at first. She moved away from hom and shook her head really fast, "thank you so much for saving me Jacob, I have no idea where you came from but I'm thankful."

Cole inserted the key into its hole and furrowed his eyebrows when the door budged. It was already open. He walked into his apartment and glared when he saw that Lara was in the living room."Cole!" She stood to her feet sharply."What are you doing here?" He walked in and closed the door behind him"I only came by to say hello." She lied, smirking and taking strides towards him. "A little bird told me you would be coming back home and so I thought it would be great if I came here beforehand, what do you think?" She got to where he stood.She snaked her arms around his neck and moved closer to him. "What do you think you're doing?" Cole was tired, too tired to pay attention to the gown she was in.Lara had specifically chosen the outfit she was in, a red lace gown that was see through. It barely stopped after her butt. There was a shorter shirt gown in the same colour underneath her outfit

Cole got into his shirt, scanning through his contact list to see if he would find any information about Karen. "Dang it." He groaned, realizing he didn't have her phone number.He proceeded to dial Lara, hoping internally that he could stop her before she got what she wanted.Like he expected, she didn't answer the phone. Cole hooked his car keys around his index finger and stuffed his phone into his pants pocket. He ran his fingers through his hair unconsciously and left the house.This was the last string Lara would be pulling, he could vouch for that.*Karen sat still in front of her dressing mirror, talking to her reflection. "Here goes nothing." She nodded and applied a decent amount of face lotion onto her palm. She hadn't used any skincare products in so long and her smooth face was proof that she didn't need them to look good.Tonight, she was overwhelmed by bore
When Billionaires meet Chapter 53: Sleeping together
"Where are you driving us to?" Karen inquired after a while of moving on the road. Neither of them had spoken to each other throughout, each of them had been buried in their individual thoughts , reliving the incident from earlier."Definitely not your house, or my house." He told her, keeping his focus on the road."So where are we going?" She was curious to know."I'm not sure yet." He scratched his head. "I can drive you to your parents but Lara will come to me as well and...""I ask you a simple question, where are you driving us to?" "Okay." He snapped his fingers, "got it. Don't worry, I have somewhere we can both go." He told her, running through his thoughts for the best options."I should have known your involvement in my life would result to even more madness, what was I thinking when I was supposed to have stayed away from you." She shook her head, and folded her arms across her chest, "you better know what you're doing." She was glad that she had survived but what if she
When Billionaires meet Chapter 54: So you can have sex with me?
Karen fluttered her eyes open, feeling an indescribable pain in her neck as she tried to sit up. It was all thanks to her sleeping position, she had managed to get cramps in her neck."Fuck." She rubbed the affected region. Cole was still asleep and he was shirtless. She felt bad for him but the room was still pretty warm."Oh my God!"She gasped, realizing she was still in her underwear and nothing but a jacket. Her robe slipped to the floor when she stood to her feet. She realized Cole must have carried her in.She frowned, retrieving her robe from the floor and put it on.She sighed and walked out of the room, ready to return to her comfortable lifestyle back at home.She loved what the scene looked like in daytime. The place was crowded by trees and sweet smelling flower brushed her nostrils.The early birds chirped as they flew in harmony and it looked like a scene from a painting was drawing her into it. She didn't want to leave."I thought you ran away." His voice called from beh

Cole felt peeved by her words and shook his head, getting to his feet. "Wow.""That's all your going to say?" She stood to after him. "Get in the car." He walked out of the room and expected her to follow after him."Why? Where are you taking me?" She asked him, trailing behind him.He didn't respond and unlocked the car, getting into the driver's seat."You can't expect me to just follow you without questioning?" She was peeved by his display, something she considered dramatic.He started the engines and judging by the angry frown on his face and the look if determination he wore, she knew it was only a matter of time before he actually drove off and left her standing there.With an equally angry look, she got into the passenger's side and slammed the door.Cole drove into the streets with anger, not minding that he could be breaking some traffic rules and regulations.Her words had played an effect on him even more than he had expected.They didn't communicate and when they were ble

"What do you mean as well?" Karen squinted her eyes."Cole is here too." She said."What do you mean by Cole is here?" Karen squinted her eyes at her mother, looking outside after remembering the cab man. If she hadn't thought of him, it was only a matter of time before he honked his horn."Mom, can I maybe get a few dollars from you? I have to pay this man." She informed her."Oh, okay." Kylie nodded at the security man, silently ordering him to take care of this problem."Come on darling, let's get you inside, you look so dead." She shook her head at Karen's appearance.Kylie hadn't exactly changed since the last time they had seen. If there was anything, Karen thought she was aging backwards.She dressed as if she was going to work. She was in a white gown that was fitted to her slender body and red heels that complimented her attire."Why are you dressed like you're off to some wedding or something?" Karen shook her head, realizing it was just who her mother was and time was slippi

Karen waited for him to react, but there was nothing. He stood there staring at her, trying to process the information internally. There was no way in the world she had just said that."What?" He said in a cracked voice.She shrieked when he pulled her to her feet and lifted her from the floor she tapped his shoulders repeatedly, "put me down, please let me go." She squealed in amusement.He did just as she had said, letting her to her feet and then he took her lips in his."Oh my God, I can't believe this," he laughed, placing his hands on his head."You scared me back there for a minute, I thought you were going to react the total opposite." She confessed with a smile, wrapping her arms around him, "so you're happy about it then?" She raised an eyebrow at him."Fuck yes!" He chuckled. "I don't even know what the right action to take is right now." He buried h

"Oh my goodness gracious, that is wonderful news!" She felt like a whole bomb that had been waiting to explode had finally been let loose inside of her. She had lowkey spent time worrying about his well being but knowing fully well that there was nothing to worry about did so much much in relieving her that she had no idea when she stood to her feet and pulled him into a hug."Come here you." She chuckled, squeezing him tight in her grip. He laughed at the reaction and returned the hug in an even tighter embrace. There was really a lot about her he fancied so much to even think to let go off her."How are we celebrating this? This is the best news I've heard in a while.'' She smiled against his shoulder."I could eat a whole meal... with you on the menu." He teased her."Well, dinner is served then." She raised her eyebrows at him, wrapping her hands around his neck while he lifted her up."But before then, you should get stuffed up too, we don't want you getting all exhausted, so eat
When Billionaires meet Chapter 71: Guess who is free
The next Monday at work, Karen called Hannah to her office after informing her that she had something important to share with her.She was on her phone texting with Cole. They had been doing this over the last hour and even though it was distracting her from going through her emails, she enjoyed the feeling.They had spent most of the weekend together and he had offered to take her on a trip. Her smile wore off when Hannah walked into the office with a slight knock on the door."Come in." Karen called to her, letting Cole know that she would talk to him later.She moved her phone and placed it on the table face down. "Please take your seat." She directed, extending her hand to the seat in front of her."Okay." Hannah nodded in agreement, a little bit fearful of what Karen could possibly want to say to her. "Did I do something wrong?" She wondered aloud."No. I just wanted

Cole decided not to ask her anything about the topic, knowing it would only lead to more uncomfortable moments. The drive to the hospital in silence for the rest of the journey.Getting there, the calm breeze that hit Karen's skin made her feel a sense of refreshment.Cole noticed but only smiled in response, holding her hand and taking her into the building with him after he had secured the car locked in a good parking space.When they walked into the hospital, the first thing Karen felt was an instant hit of sadness.She looked around at the people that filled every corner of the room and couldn't help her expression."What's wrong?" Cole asked again,noticing how far she looked."It's nothing." She lied and craned her head in different directions, silently following him to the woman at the reception counter."Is there anything I can do for you?" She aske

"Yes we are getting back together, why do you seem to have such a big problem with it?" Karen raised her eyebrows at his confused mother, "I mean if people want to go in relationships, you shouldn't go around poking noses into their businesses." She sounded as if she had planned the answers previously, waiting to let it all out."But he is my son, I have every right to ask him why he is with his ex wife all of a sudden, so don't make it seem like I am some bad egg or something." Elizabeth retorted. She was still flabbergasted from meeting Karen here all of a sudden but that was not a considerable factor to hold her back from saying her mind."I'm glad we have answered your question." Karen stood to her feet and extended her hands towards Cole. He was still in shock and plain confusion hut he received her hand and stood to his feet as well. "I think we will leave now.""Cole, what is happening?" Elizabeth wondered, followin

Karen calmed down in that stance,realizing that people didn’t really know so much about her like she thought and that made her feel relieved, a bit comfortable to be here again.She wondered where his mother could be, or what she was doing. Karen didn’t think she would have to bunp into her anytine soon because she was the expectant grandmother and should be busy with handling other activities at the nmoment.Karen was brought out of scrutiny when her phone began to ring in her purse. Cole had been paying attention to what she possibly felt like and so he was curious to know what phone call she was receiving.“Who's that?” He asked her while she unzipped her bag. She brought the phone out and put it up to her face.“My mom.” She answered him, sounding surpri

"What are you doing?" Karen sat up in bed and looked up at Cole as he dressed up ,clearly ready to leave for somewhere.She stretched, I ywned and rubbed her eyes a little. Cole smiled at her and kept doing the buttons on his shirt while trying to focus on his reflection at the same time."Tell me, do I look good enough?" He turned around to look at her and his lips twitched into a smile when he cauht the look of confusion on her face and her furrowed eyebrows. "Why do you look like I stole something from you?""Where are you going?" She changed the format of her previous question."So today is my sister's baby shower and I'm supposed to be there." He explained, moving towards a drawer. He pulled it out and brought a colonge out."What time is it?" Karen looked around the room, trying to find a wall clock."Almost twelve." He sighed."Whoa."

Karen was walking out of the organisation after closing hours when her phone rang in her handbag. It was a white leather one that matched her suit outfit. She stopped walking, zipped the bag open and pulled her phone out. She had been startled a little because she was not expecting the phone call.She rolled her eyes with a smile on her face when she saw who the phone call was from. It was none other than Cole. Typical.
