All Chapters of Delilah: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Mate's assistant went into panic frenzy. What was he going to do? His boss had canceled the plans he'd made for the wedding anniversary. What a mess!He quickly took out his phone and called Maria's PA. "Get madam to not go to the hotel. Chairman Mateo has canceled the reservation." He said."What? And you're telling me this now? She has already gone to the hotel."As she walked into the reception, all eyes were on her. She looked stunning in her red dress, which hugged her curves perfectly. The slit in between added just the right amount of sex appeal, and her make-up added to her natural glow. It was clear that she was excited about their anniversary, and she couldn't wait to celebrate with her partner.As she climbed up the stairs, her belly tingled with excitement. She couldn't wait to see what Mateo had planned.Once she entered the room, all her excitement died. There were no flowers, no gifts, and no Mateo. But it was their wedding anniversary. She raged, her eyes spitting fir

The silence in the room was disturbed a a resounding slap. "You fool."Maria yelled and with it, another slap. "All you had to do was follow him and track him." she spoke through gritted teeth. "You're not capable of doing even that little thing?" she added another slap. Mateo's assistant could only but bear the pain of her mistress's unforgiving hand. "I know this is all my fault, i know it. I take responsibility... "SHUT UP!" Maria screamed her face reddening. "it... The security man ran in, interrupting her. " The chairman is back. " he said and rushed out. "Find a place and hide." Maria said to her husband's assistant. Mateo walked in. He looked around and could only scoff. The place was a mess. Broken picture frames, broke flower vase, posters had been pulled down, the drapes on the front doors were torn, the sofa had been overturned, broken, chips of flower vase, shattered table."What the hell is this? What is this mess." he asked. Though his voice was soft but still a gr

The three women sat at the end of the restaurant having a good laugh."I can't believe the chairman didn't come on in their wedding anniversary of all days. How pathetic.!" Julia said"I guess she's feeling embarrassed. That's the reason she didn't join us for tea today." Natalia added. "Combined with the little stunt we pulled on her too. I'm sure she's furious and wants to tear us apart . But as usual, I don't think she can do anything to us. She's too stupid to know any better." Julia said.Li-lah was about to say something when her phone rang. It was Maria calling. " Hello ma'am? Oh! Alright, I'll bring her home once she's done with her golf lessons."* * * * The Table was turned upside down, broken furniture littered the ground, flower vases, crystal figurines, cash register, drinks-all thrown to the side in a gigantic mess. The champagne cork had smashed on the floor.Li-lah looked around the house wondering what had happened. "Maria?" she called out. No answer. "Maria, whe

In a few minutes, they found themselves at her house. Li-lah led him straight to the dining room. "let me fix you something to eat. I know things have been tough lately and you probably haven't been taking good care of yourself," she said, as she went to the kitchen to whip up something delicious. While she cooked, he looked around the room, taking in all the details that he had missed before. The paintings on the wall, the antique clock on the mantel, the elegant chandelier that hung from the ceiling. It was clear that Li-lah had put a lot of thought into every aspect of her home. When she returned with a steaming plate of food, he realized that he was starving. As he ate, he felt a sense of comfort that he hadn't felt in a long time. Maybe things weren't so bad after all.A lump formed in Mateo's throat as he took a bite of the food. He couldn't remember the last time he'd eaten homemade food or being cared for like this. The flavors exploded in his mouth, and he closed his eyes,

The tiny room was a mess of papers. On the floor, scattered over the table were files and documents. Samantha sat, flipping through them one by one. Her eyes darted back and forth as she read through the pages, her brow furrowed in concentration. She was searching for something, anything that would help her make sense of the chaos surrounding her. Samantha had been busy working on for hours. The room was stuffy, and she was feeling a bit claustrophobic by now. But she knew there was no time to waste. She sat cross-legged on the floor, flipping through the files, trying to make sense of the information they contained. It was a lot to take in, but she was determined to get through it all. She had been working on this project for weeks and knew that there was no room for error. As she reached for another file, her phone buzzed on the table beside her. She glanced at the screen and saw a message from Li-lah saying she was in her way.As she sifted through the papers, Samantha's mind wand
