Chapter 161

"Can you stop whatever you think you are doing? It's uncomfortable and I hate it,"Nicole said in an annoyed voice making sure that Rafael knows that his actions, whatever his intentions were, doesn't sit well with her and she wasn't down for it, his coming back now and asking to be heard was all the way too suspicious for her to just let him do what he wants, she wasn't a pushover and he couldn't just come back with the whatever agenda he had and want them back to get after the way he duped her, it wasn't done like that, wait that was all her thinking, no that was what Natalie projected into her head, Rafael hasn't even told her what the fuck he wanted from her, so why was he making life difficult for her, he never called her back when he said he will, he didn't come back when he said they have to talk, the man was a confused human and she wasn't ready to accommodate him."Why? I am just trying to m***""Stop trying to do anything, don't send flowers to my workplace, I understand you

"I don't even know how to start talking to you when you are giving me this kind of attitude, Nicole,""Rafael, I would really go straight to the point if I were you because last I checked we are not cool, so don't expect to be treated nicely, you can't expect to be treated nicely, especially not from me,"She replied, she was already getting riled up by him again, she shouldn't let him get to her but he was, being rude to him was her only way to keep herself from thinking too much about their meeting and what he wanted to talk to her about, she refused to be a fool for love, refuse to be a slave to it, yes, the man in front of her was the one she loves and might love until the day she takes her last breath but that didn't mean she has to be weak before him, if she does that then she would be nothing but a pushover."I wasn't expecting you to be nice to me, trust me, I wasn't,""I don't trust you Rafael,""I know you don't and you have every right not to trust me and I also know you wo

Chapter 163

This was harder than he thought it would be, Nicole has changed so much in the five or six months they were apart, he should have expected that it won't be easy for him to get her back, he had thought talking with Natalie and clearing things with her would help him but it didn't, he tried getting her flowers that she liked but it didn't work, whatever he doesn't go well with her and she wasn't even giving him any hint that he was making progress with her, heck she doesn't even believe his words and hasn't been taking this whole conversation serious at this point out he was out of options already, this was the moment he needed his supposed best friend but it has been two weeks, two whole fucking weeks of not hearing from Caleb and he was hella worried for his well being, Caleb wasn't used to a hard life and Rafael was sure anywhere he is, he was having a hard time but what can he do to help someone who made it clear that he didn't want his help? He had his own problems and he doesn't e

"That's so touching,"She said placing her hands on her chest, she wasn't taking him seriously but that's okay."Okay, Mr. Time is up, I have to go home now, it was nice talking to you, or maybe not, anyway I have to go now,"She said getting up and grabbing her bag, it was just past one and she was already leaving?"I can drop you off,"He offered, following her out of the office, the staff were looking at them weirdly and they must have heard their conversation, but he didn't mind, he didn't mind and wasn't going to feel embarrassed about it."I can drive myself, I got a license,"She responded. Another thing that changed about her, there was so much change that he fear he might not know this woman anymore but he wasn't going to let that fear stop him, she can change all she wants, change is the only truly constant thing, his love for her too, he was going to let the changes he sees stop him, she was a good person and good people don't suddenly become bad and Nicole can't even be ba

Chapter 165

Nicole drove home in a foul mood, the worst part of it all was that she didn't even know why she had lashed out at him like that, he had been doing the same thing for over two weeks now and she was even used to him showing up at odd moments even after she told him not to, he didn't listen and it never made her pissed, she had been laughing and joking with Aron before he showed up and her mood went down immediately, she saw the shock and hurt in his face but she didn't mind at that moment, her hormones were acting out and she didn't even know how to control them, she knew she overreacted."I shouldn't have done that,"she said to herself as she entered her room and laid on her bed, it was still early but she usually comes home early on Friday to enable her to start her weekend on time and enable her to regroup for the new week, she has been doing great so far and wasn't stressed at all, and she finally found a routine that worked perfectly for her, aside from Rafael who was always on h

"Cole, let's go out,"Natalie said later that evening while she sat in her run still having a bad day and it was all Rafael's fault, today made it officially a week since he last came, the mad man."Sure,"Nicole said . She needed to get out of this space before she go crazy."Get dress, we will leave in twenty minutes,"Natalie said and left the room, Nicole didn’t bother to ask her where they were going, she wanted to be anywhere but on her own."Where are we going to?"She asked Natalie on their way, Natalie was driving and singing along to the song playing on the stereo."A club,""A club? What? I don't go clubbing, take me back home,"Nicole said . She should have asked before leaving the house, she just thought they were going out like they used to, a club was a whole new thing to her."No, way, you are looking so down, a club is what you need to lift that mood, the rush there, you will enjoy it don't worry,""I don't want to,""You already agreed, I am not taking you back hom

Rafael looked around his new achievement, the mine officially opened today and in a few weeks he would be a gold miner too, yes and he was close to achieving his long term goal of being the youngest trillionaire, apart from this his other businesses were doing great at the moment and he was making billions in minutes, well that didn't guarantee that he was happy though because he wasn't, he hasn't spoken with Nicole for over two weeks now and she hasn't called or anything else, he thought if he stayed away then she would miss him and at least call but he must have taken her for granted and she has shown him she wasn't up for that, he missed her a lot and want to call her every day but he needed her to make that move, to call him, and it looks like that's not going to happen, which means he wasn't halfway there yet, he wasn't even close to gaining her back and that shit wasn't easy to deal with.He walked into the office he was using here and sat down, the place was not as big as his o

First things first, he has to do something about Nicole's security, he couldn't bring harm to her, or her twin whoever it was knew she was his weakness and was targeting her, heck he didn't even know who he was dealing with, he just knew that he had to do something, he picked up his phone and dialed his chief security officer."Can you arrange for some men to be around my wife for the time being? And report to my office in the next thirty minutes, I have something to talk to you about,"He instructed."Yes, sir, it will be done and I will be on my way,"He responded and Rafael ended the call, he couldn't play with Nicole's safety, if the threats were for him he wouldn't have even given much thought to it, he has seen his shares of a death threat and stuff but Nicole shouldn't be dragged into it, Rafael went up into his office in the mind to wait for his security officer, he was there in minutes and Rafael told him everything about the call and gave the number to him and showed him th

"If I were you, I would swallow my pride and just call him,"Natalie said getting on her bed, Nicole pushed her away and got off the bed, she went to sit on her dressing chair and faced her sister who got back on the bed."I don't have pride and I am not calling anyone,"She responded. She wasn't going to do it."Yeah, this is the second week that you haven't heard anything from him after the way he showered you with attention for two weeks, I would be surprised if you didn't miss him so I understand, just call him already, you know you want to,""I don't know what you are talking about Natalie, I don't miss anyone and I am not calling anyone, don't try to show what isn't there, I am too busy to spend my time thinking about it missing someone,""Keep telling yourself that Cole, honestly, at this rate you might lose this man and end up regretting it, he is trying to make up for what happened, we are human and we make mistakes, realizing those mistakes and retaking our steps to fix it i
