Interrupted by a call

She had tried not to think about what Kathleen said but it was futile, no matter how many times she shrugged off it always flashed across her mind. Suddenly she hit her forehead, grumbling with frustration. She glanced around the living room to see the maid who brought a glass of juice standing quietly beside her. Charlene lifted a puzzle brow. “What's the matter?” She didn't understand why she hadn't left.“I thought you might need something else. Should I prepare a bathtub for your bath or you want me to assist you with something else?” The maid noticed something, however she couldn't ask her. She was only a mere maid, if it was Richard she dare not trespass. They all feared him because of his temper. Charlene scanned her from the toes to the head then shook her head. “No, I don't need anything. You may leave.” She switched her gaze on the magazine she was holding.“Okay, ma'am.” She said, turned around and left.Charlene lifted her head, looking at her as she was leaving. She roll

A reason to love her

He sighted her car parked opposite the mansion, she was standing by the car, looking at him grimly. As if he cared, he sauntered casually toward her with his hands stuffed in his trousers pockets. “You never learned to be fast, right? You kept me waiting out here.” She seethed, glaring at him scornfully.“Like hell did I invite you here? What the hell do you want? How many times have I told you to stop calling me?’She rolled her eyes insolently. “You know what to do if you're tired of me. I'm here to see my son and your gatekeepers won't let me in.” “Then deal with it. I don't want you near my son and if you dare to be smart, Henrietta, don't make me do what I'd regret later.”“Perhaps are you planning to get rid of me? Richard, I'm your baby's mother.” She coaxed.“A warning!” He was obviously exasperated by her response. He snapped at her, she flinched back.She gasped, never expecting that from him though, however she knew he wouldn't welcome her. His cheerful countenance was rep

New changes

She insisted on coming with her to his residence, they had tried to reach him through phone call but to no avail. There was no one Charlene could call, Javier was the only child, if at all he had a sibling she would have called to ask about him. The car halted opposite the mansion, Charlene got her phone from her handbag. “Are we at his residence already?” Fiona was wondering but the ride duration from the campus to the mansion was five minutes, he didn't live far from the campus unlike Charlene. “Yes, let's go.” They alighted from the car. James was going to wait, driving Fiona to her workplace before driving Charlene home. They crossed to the opposite side, Charlene walked ahead leaving her behind, she pressed a button on the wall. “Who's there?” A lady's face popped on the screen. Before Charlene could reply she had called her name. “Mrs Sullivan.” The gate unlocked automatically, they trudged inside. It was hush, his parents hired only two maids. “Do you think he's home?” “I

Her name

Saturday was supposed to be a fun day, sleeping all day could be quite exhausting, shopping like there was no tomorrow wasn't that exhilarating anymore–going out for fun; visiting a friend, Charlene couldn't think of anything fun than going out. She was awfully tired of sitting at home, studying, online shopping, lost in reverie and soliloquizing. Those weren't fun to her anymore.She wasn't the type that had many friends, lately she considered Fiona as her friend. The only person that flashed across her mind the moment she concluded to go out, her name rang in her head like a lullaby, Fiona. Instantly she took her phone on the king size and curled up with a book in her hand. She had been lingering in the same position while roaming her eyes in the room. Her phone bleeped, she leaned forward, uncurled to reach for her phone, she took it and read Fiona's reply. She texted her that they should rendezvous at a five star restaurant. She received an instantaneous response from Fiona. Char

Feedback from his attorney

She was waiting for the lecture to end so she could talk to him before he left without saying a word to her. Instead of making a note her gaze focused on him, he was listening and watching the professor in total concentration. However She definitely didn't hear anything else, her mind was swayed, perturbed as she was sitting, playing with a pen, scrambling nothing on her book. ”That's the end of the lecture...” Professor Clark packed his text book and laptop into his bag then left the lecture theater. Students had started leaving the lecture theatre one after the other, Charlene sprang up from her seat, she took her handbag, the book and her pen then stood on the way she assumed he would take. Javier noticed so he whirled to take another exit, he made to leave without talking to her, but before he could take another step further, she called his name softly. “Javier, wait.” He didn't look back but he stopped walking. She sighed, walking over to where he was standing. “Hi.” He loo

Their first night

The bodyguards bowed as they walked past them, Richard seemed not to notice anything else including the guests that were drooling over him. Devyn never stopped smiling at the bodyguards at the entrance. “Welcome, sirs.” A giant bodyguard greeted them, directed them to a room. He unlocked the door with the key then they walked inside leisurely. The bodyguard stopped by the door as he had reached his stop, they took an elevator to the top floor meant for the VIP. “I don't understand what we're doing here in SL Tower. Are you here to meet your client?”“Actually I invited someone over here. He wants us to meet so…” He narrowed at him. They sidled out after the elevator slid open.“Oh.” He gave a feeble response. He believed the person Richard invited must be someone important like them, so he only came to the tower for a conference with foreigners. Surprisingly when Devyn saw director Wilson, the least person he expected, he twitched his lips.Wilson rose, he smiled brightly at Richard

Miguel or the contract?

“You'll be late if you keep pretending to be sleeping, Charlene.” Richard whispered to her ear, sending a chill down her spine. She chuckled quietly as she turned her back at him. She had checked the time when Richard left to get dressed in the closet, since she had made up her mind to spend the whole day with Miguel there was no reason for her to wake up early. Moreover she was imagining last night's event, she couldn't get over it. Their first night was awesome, if there was anything Charlene ever wanted again it was his touch, she wanted to feel his touch again. Richard thought she was still in pain, perhaps she was regretting what happened between them last night. Literally they were a couple, that should be expected to happen even if both individuals were forced to marry each other. However Richard wasn't giving up until she answered him. “Does it hurt that much?” He asked chivalrously. The magnanimous attention she was receiving from him was making her uneasy, she wondered if i

Clarification

Devyn had been staring at him ever since he stepped into his office. Although he had something to discuss with him concerning the company, there was something else that was more important he'd love to ask him. Devyn cleared his throat. He blinked multiple times as he gazed at him steadily.Richard was literally pissed off. He wondered how long he would continue to be staring at him. He put down his phone beside him. Then, contracted his lips into a frown. “For how long will you continue staring at me like that?”Devyn sat upright purposely. He chuckled. “As long as I'm able to picture out the answers in your eyes. How was your date with Greta?”“I know you're going to ask about that. It was quite exhilarating. She's just obsessed.” He said with a pout.“But you're married. Didn't she know?”Richard cocked his head as he looked intently into his eyes. “Does it matter? When you desperately want something, other things don't matter.”He gasped surprisingly. He furrowed his brows, focused

A deep confession

Richard furrowed his brows. He wasn't expecting her to ask that question. Frankly, he had never prepared an answer for the question to start with. Since she already asked him, he would have to answer her and be straightforward with her.Charlene was already on her feet, anticipating his reply. She gazed at him from the bedside, waiting for him to answer her. When he was taking too much time getting an answer to her question, she spoke again. “I've been thinking about this but I'm perplexed. Richard, I want to have your child.” “Wait!” He was nearly speechless.“Was I asking for too much? Oh!” She hit her forehead gently, sighing softly. “But, I-I'm ready to carry your child.” She said calmly.For a few seconds his facial expression was completely plain, giving her a fright without knowing. Suddenly he smiled lightly. “I'm just concerned about your education.”“I'm in my final year, Richard. I told you that. Right?”“Yeah, I remember.” He ran his fingers through his hair, getting clos

She never sees that coming

“What are you going to say about this, Ms. Janice?” After stomping into the office Henrietta turned on the TV show. There, Greta Christopher was on live broadcast, having an interview. Ms. Janice glanced at her, then lifted a brow. “Seriously?”“What do you want me to do? The company doesn't want your face on the cover of their fashion magazines. To be honest, I thought you're better but…I was wrong. The company sent an invite to Greta and she signed a contract with us. Our industry doesn't want to lose a big slot, so I have no choice but to sign her into our industry.” She explained thoroughly.Henrietta tightened her fists ferociously. “So, what are you insinuating? You're kicking me out of the industry?” She tried to maintain her cool but she was pissed off. There were furies in her eyes while gazing into her eyes steadily.“Don't be ridiculous!” She snapped, leaping up.“You make me understand what it means. Greta is given what is supposed to be mine. I'm the queen in this industr
