Chapter Sixty One- Royally Fucked

Anthony's point of viewVanessa was allergic to almost all types of flowers so I had to get plastic ones. Plastic roses that Ronald was sure would win her heart."I feel like I was too harsh with her when I told her not to visit her dad without me or any other person," I told him at the flower shop."This is my way of redeeming myself and making everything right, she has been acting kind of distant too," I added.Ronald nodded, he had also bought one bouquet each of roses and lilies for Mary."Isn't it too soon for her to move in? Have you guys even gotten to know yourself past sex?" This was going to be my first and only time of bringing this topic up. They were adults and needed no intervention from me.Ronald shrugged "She has spent a couple of nights with me where we didn't have sex and also a couple of mornings and afternoons so we were pretty compatible," He adjusted the bouquets on his hands so they wouldn't fall to the floor."Plus this is something I haven't tried once, perha

Chapter Sixty Two- Damage Control

Anthony's point of view Vanessa went to bed immediately, she refused to talk to me and I knew there was nothing I would say at the moment that would make her listen to me.I had to let her be.My mother on the other hand would not let me be, she arrived an hour after I arrived at home and she looked like she drove through a hurricane to get here. She was absolutely livid."I warned you Anthony, I warned you not to do anything foolish," Those were her words immediately she saw me, "No one stopped you from having sex with multiple women, try to make sure they don't tell the public" She continued.Geez. I did not think I needed that sort of chastising at the moment.I pressed my fingers on my head trying to clear the headache that was determined to show despite the fact that I took some painkillers few moments ago. I couldn't deal with this woman in this condition."Please mother," I finally said.I had this grand idea that that would be enough to hold her back. It wasn't. It seemed to

Chapter Sixty Three- I want to get married to you Anthony

Anthony's point of viewIf someone had told me I would be in a meeting with Vanessa, Josephine and a lawyer someday, I would have thought they were lying and tell them to go away.Heck, it was happening right in front of me and I still couldn't believe it."Well well well, nice to see you again Vanessa," Josephine said the moment she walked into the apartment, her eyes moved around trying to get everything in.I realized I had never taken Josephine to this apartment before. It was always the other house.Vanessa rolled her eyes at her and said nothing. She just reclined into her seat and folded her hands across her chest."Well if you aren't going to say anything to me, isn't it best I just walk out of this door," Josephine said again, the smile on her face was disappearing every second Vanessa ignored her.She was just being childish."Sit down Josephine, I can't stand any of your whining this morning please," I said as a way to get her to shut up.The headache that had disturbed me

Chapter Sixty Four-Jobs

Vanessa's point of viewThere was no way I would be able to continue living like this. Just no way.I waited though, I wanted no one to find out about what I was doing and try to talk me out of it. Anthony had gone for some sort of board meeting at work, he promised to solve the issue as best as he could and get Josephine to find something else. I allowed him touch me for the very last time."Hey Victor," I said the moment my younger brother picked up his phone. He sounded sleepy but I knew he took in every word I said."I'll see you in an hour," I said at the end before I ended the call.Unfortunately for me, I had a lot of things I wanted to bring with me. Some knick knacks I gathered over the months, gifts that were too beautiful to be left behind from both Anthony and others, clothes I needed and some of my designs.I might not have made it under Valentine's teachings but I knew I was meant to be a fashion designer. I would get there one day.Josephine hadn't said anything about

Chapter Sixty Five -Heart To Heart

Vanessa's point of viewWorking for Dave was something different. He was almost never around and when he was around, he made advances at me that was uncalled for most of the time.A manager in an upcoming club wasn't what I expected. I was responsible for making the club a success in Los Angeles, a home to multiple other clubs. I was responsible for finding responsible staff who wouldn't run away with our drinks and money.And I was doing this while pregnant. The second trimester came like a bitch. After the vomiting and headache came the constant need to stay in bed most of the time. It was honestly one of the most challenging times in my life."You don't look so good honey," Dave said one day when he came into the house I had gotten for Victor and myself at a part of town that was relatively cheap and still good looking.Dave had offered to get us a good house but I didn't want it. He had given me a job and that was enough for me, I didn't want to ask for more favours.I placed an

Chapter Sixty Six- Love Vanessa

Anthony's point of viewThe worst thing a man could come home to would be an empty house and a runaway wife. I had thought it was a vacation like the first time honestly, I thought she needed space and time to comprehend what happened.I still didn't know what to do with Josephine though. She went out of her way to appear in some more interviews, though she said nothing about Vanessa anymore, she just talked about the undying love she had for me and how she would do anything to get me to love her again.My lawyer had done his work then. But even he couldn't work miracles.I couldn't handle staying in the house alone, everything reminded me of Vanessa. Her scent lingered in the air and without having sex for the past days, it turned me on to a degree I didn't like.I wasn't planning on jerking myself off, I needed Vanessa for anything to happen so I left the apartment.Booked a room in one of my hotels and just cramped myself inside there, attending most meetings there and just working

Chapter Sixty Seven- Architect of a problem

Anthony's point of viewLiving with Josephine made me remember the reasons why I detested marriage. She was absolutely horrible and wasn't even anything like the woman I slept with some time ago while she was still my secretary.Five months since Vanessa and Victor took off. Our contract would be dissolved in ten months time, business was booming and everyone wanted a Thorn hotel and suite. Even the real estate I ventured in just for the fun of it was going on very well."You look miserable today boss," Lucas said the moment he saw me.I rolled my eyes at him. His father had wanted him to work for just a month or two with me but Lucas seemed to like the job acted we sorted out our loose ends. He was the best personal assistant I had ever had."Doesn't he look miserable everyday?" Ronald asked, he had this big smile on his face as he clapped me hard on the back.Ha ha. I laughed a bit."I doubt Vanessa would go back to him when she finally comes back, he really let himself go," Lucas t

Chapter Sixty Eight -Month Five, Six and Seven

Vanessa's point of viewMonth five.My abdomen protruded out of most of my clothes, announced my pregnancy to the whole wide world but that didn't stop the flirting from Dave or the whistles from the other men. Constantly, I drew attention wherever I went to."I'm surprised mu... Elizabeth is yet to find us, I had given her just a week and here we are at month three," Victor said one morning during breakfast.I ignored the little mistake he was about to make, calling Elizabeth mom when he knew he wasn't related to her in any way. Plus I was really tired, I had to spend almost half of my sleeping hours balancing the records of the club so I could send the monthly reports to Dave.He wasn't going to give me a free pass just because I was pregnant and he flirted with me." I'm happy they haven't found us, I don't like them and I don't want to go back," I snapped."Who said anything about going back?" Victor questioned me, sometimes he gave me the vibe that he wanted to be strangled."I m

Chapter Sixty Nine- Xavier Star Ives-Thorn

Vanessa's point of view.He weighed seven pounds and made me scream for hours. Dave and Victor were with me, Dave comforted me when I became snappy and temperamental. He brought me food, he brought me some magazines and what not to take my mind off the labour pain.Victor however held my hands and told me stories even when it seemed I wasn't listening. He was good at that, constructing stories out of thin air and telling them in a waubrgat captured your attention."You're going to make it," Dave said when I was being rolled into the delivery room.Victor requested to go with me and though I didn't want to traumatize the child with the trials of labour, he insisted and I allowed him.He was the first person to hold the baby."He looks just like Anthony," He cooed at the baby while I was being cleaned up."He looks like a squashed cabbage," I said the snarky reply.When I placed the baby to my breast, I hadn't decided on a name yet, I noticed he had some of the features of Anthony. The

Chapter Seventy - Ocean eyes

Vanessa's point of view"I am so fucking horny babe," Victoria cried out from the couch she sat on.She stretched on the couch and turned to look at me. We were in my room getting ready for the welcome back party Dave decided to throw for me at the club. I felt that event would give me too much attention that what I needed."Dave is totally inlove with you," Victoria said. She sounded like she was so sure."Why would you switch from one conversation to another like that?," I asked her.She shrugged, "I don't want to discuss about how I would totally jump on a beautiful man's bones if I had the opportunity but I would rather talk about how Dave seemed to be pulling all strings just to do what he thinks would make you happy," She said.I rolled my eyes at her words. She knew exactly how to push my buttons."He's just being a good friend who loves flirting with me but is almost old enough to be my father and has three children with a loving wife," I explained to her again so she could un
