CHAPTER 51: Cold feet?

The room was silent, deathly silent while Emma waited for him to speak. She couldn’t imagine the clause that made him appear so frightening. “ If by any chance, you betray me, Emma Steele, I promise to make your life a living hell,” Asher said, staring at the pale woman seated before him.Emma didn’t know what to make of the information she’d been given. “ You mean, all that was for this?” She asked in bewilderment. “ You are a drama king, Mr. Braxton.” She remarked with a smile, hoping to clear the air. “ That I am, and more. Tell me, Emma, do you agree to my conditions? Are you ready for this?” He asked with an odd smile.“ Yes. Unless you have more hidden agendas, I believe we are good to go. Where do I sign?” Emma picked up a black pen situated on the table, ready to get it all over with.“ At the last page.”That was it. Emma signed the papers and switched copies with Asher who also signed his name on the paper. At the end of the action, they stared at each other, one looking f

CHAPTER 52: Mrs. Braxton

“ Marry me?”It was weird being proposed to with a pen but Emma took it regardless. It wasn’t like it was some real proposal anyways. Asher was trying to dramatize the situation as usual. She couldn’t deny the fact that her heart fluttered at the gesture. She read the heading of the paper, confirming it was indeed a marriage registry, and proceeded to do the needful. He went through leaps and mounts to get it signed so conspicuously and her signature was the only thing left. Again, she wondered about the need to come out so early if they were going to sign it in the car anyways. She didn’t voice out her opinion though.Asher watched with keen eyes as the documents got signed. They were officially man and wife, no going back now. He took time to inspect it and after the fast exercise, the documents were sealed in an envelope, going into his possession.“ This has been fun, dearest. But I must take my leave now. Barley would ensure you are back home, safe and sound. The other aspects o

CHAPTER 53: Bingo.

The room was deathly silent as they all adjusted to their seats, desperate to get to the conclusion of this nightmare.“ I know that you might feel like the shit right now, but unless you have a valid proof of your continued position as the CEO of Braxton International, You have no right to interfere in this meeting.” The director continued, having gone too far to stop now.“ Audacious. A trait I am yet to find in the three years you worked under this company.” Asher remarked, far from pleased. “ I’m curious to know what gave you this boldness. The impetus, I must say.”“ This isn’t a place to fuel your silly games, Mr Braxton. Dare I say, this is very insensitive on your part, having caused the downfall of the company from its most glorified state to this, and still, hindering the effective and immediate address of the situation, Even going as far as chasing out potential hands, able to resurrect nd reposition Braxton International at the forefront of our esteemed shareholder’s mind

CHAPTER 54: What could go wrong?

The entire room was silent. No one moved nor uttered a word as they watched the men get escorted out of the building. Their fear for Mr. Braxton had efficiently tripled. How fearsome was this man?! He even made a supposed dead woman come to life to achieve his goal. He was undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with. In their heart of hearts, the others thanked God they weren’t stupid enough to have dared the almighty Asher Braxton.Amongst them, some still nursed reservations about the validity of everything playing out before them. How was he able to achieve such a feat within one week? One week! That fact was fearsome as much as it was spectacular. Once again, Asher proved just how thorough he was when it came to the matters of the company. He left no stone unturned and performed in such a way that shook his audience, every single time.“ I would’ve had your neck if you didn’t show up with something, boy.” One of the top shareholders spoke, holding back a smile. “ Now, you get back t

CHAPTER 55: Wrong store?

Emma and Mrs. Braxton headed for the most expensive perfume stall in the city, which they were one of the store’s most favored customers given the uniqueness of their reception.She looked around the sea of luxurious scents, deciding she might find something she fancied but was quickly driven away by the price tags.What in the world?! Emma was stunned at the exorbitant prices and as a result, called Mrs. Adams with a little voice, hoping she didn’t already do something that’d put them in debt. She was so broke that she couldn’t take chances with the little money she expected to turn the tides over for her. She felt convinced that any little mishap could send her entire plan and foreseeable future to hell. Someplace she wasn’t quite fond of.Mrs. Braxton spotted a gesturing Emma, wondering if she saw something she liked already. She walked over to her with a kind smile, expecting to see the little gem that caught the attention and heart of Emma within minutes of entry.“ Which is it

CHAPTER 56: Are you courting death?!

Emma wasn’t stupid enough to enter the devil’s lair. She was currently in the clear, having been declared dead but didn’t deem it wise to blow off her cover just yet.There was a need for her to be steps ahead in her plans before finally revealing herself. At that moment, she was reminded of her need to ensure Asher was in line. That is, to ensure he didn’t do anything that could doom her chances at achieving her goals. “ I heard this is the latest Talia Steele design! Such a beautiful masterpiece! She’s such a talented designer, creating her path and line with the family business.” One of the women, not allowed to enter the Steele store, gushed to another who stood beside her.“ What’s so great about it if it doesn’t serve its purpose? We need to cancel these people already. They are taking the common people for granted!" The others protested, unhappy with the treatment they received.“ Of course, it's serving its purpose! You are sore because it doesn’t fit your price range. The St

CHAPTER 57: Ouch.

“ This woman must be crazy! Is she blind? How does one insert himself into such trouble?” A woman beside Emma said, too focused on the confrontation to see the death glare from her supposed gossip partner.“ She is doing what we ought to have done. How do you feel watching such injustice unfold on that woman?” She asked instead, causing the woman to turn in search of her face.“ Can’t you see or are you also blind? This woman is poor and unable to afford the new and improved Steele Shoes. Why is she causing a ruckus and demanding the impossible? She even spoke of involving a lawyer, Ha! As IF she’d be able to foot the bills incurred after losing to such a big-shot company.” Emma hissed, she couldn’t oppose the fact that if that woman decided to sue Steele Shoes for defective products, the chances of her winning such a suit were similar to none. Steele Shoes was a big fish, she was aware of the millions that went into savings for situations like these which always ended up being judg

CHAPTER 58: His hell.

Emma was inside the car, brainstorming the best ways to approach her fake husband for help when Mrs. Adams came in, granting a pleasing surprise.“ What took you so long?!” She asked, almost toppling her over. “ Where is the woman? What happened there? I almost called Asher.” She exposes herself without care.“ Oh my Lady, I didn’t know you were that worried, I’m sorry that it took a while to resolve. I had to pick up some things on my way back.” She explained with a smile. “ Speaking of Mr. Braxton, are you sure you didn’t reach out to him? I just got off the phone with him.” She accused, jokingly, of course. Mr. Braxton had called for a different reason, one she wasn’t at liberty to discuss.Emma couldn’t care less about her supposed husband, that was besides the case, she was more interested in whatever it was that transpired inside the store.When she saw the woman who instigated the situation leaving the complex with a smile, she realized something good must have happened and imm

Talia and Colton lay on the bed, bare-bodied and covered with a white duvet. After their rounds of vigorous exercise, it was safe to say that their groove was back. The unfortunate thing was that it came at a price. Talia’s phone rang all through the exercise. Courtesy, Mrs. Steele.Every time she tried to pick up, Colton retaliated with a paralyzing stroke, hitting the right places and making her moan in ecstasy. After the fourth attempt, she gave it up and threw her phone far from reach which placed a smug smile on his face. From then on, it was a smooth ride, leading up to this moment of recuperation.Talia held Colton’s phone, skimming through the internet with a smile. Her collection was a success. Day after day, it continued to reach new heights in every aspect of the world.

CHAPTER 60: Dead, forgotten and useless!

Mrs. Steele returned to her office, feeling all kinds of inexplicable emotions. After the day she’s had, it wasn’t a shocker she needed some time to herself and immediately she ordered her secretary to hold off meetings for the remainder of the day.More than anything else, she yearned for the peace of knowing everything was going in order without having her pop up to clean some mess created by sheer carelessness and lack of commitment. Who knew that some old and washed-up female butler could disrespect her person in such a dignified manner?The worst part of the experience was she had to play to her tune, knowing her stupid manager had done a poor job curtailing the situation. What ruffled her the most was the information that the little fiasco was storming up some fire of disrepute and public angst against her company, therefore tainting the newly released collection.As opposed to the free and endlessly ascending flow of the sales and popularity of their newly launched design, ever
