The clouds swallowed up Joana’s smiles replacing it with a grimace that proceeded from a place of brokenness. As her cab drove home, she lost the strength to do anything and communicate with anyone on the phone. Immediately she got out of the cab, the black convoy that drove past in the morning drove past her again. This time, Joana assumed the new neighbor was back home too.Shawn has been calling since morning but Joana refused to listen to him or even read his messages. To her, it was worthless to listen to Shawn because the evidence was clear and from all indications, Shawn was cheating on her.When Joana managed to get inside, She locked the door behind her and collapsed on the couch sobbing. Not long, she slept off due to how exhausted she was. At about 7 pm that evening , she jerked from her sleep. Someone was knocking loudly at her door.

After the day’s work that Friday afternoon, Joana and Kelly couldn't stop talking about the man from the lounge while in the cab.Everything that happened after they got drunk yesterday was erased from their minds, making them completely oblivious to the fact that he was the one who helped them get back home.Kelly already had a cool name that suited his personality while Joana called him ‘ the arrogant man. The fact that he showed up in the company and was seen having a meeting with the CEO got them pretty curious. “ Gosh! I hate proud people. Don't you think the peacock is Stalking us? Why did he show up in the company all of a sudden?” Kelly curled her lips in disdain.“ I don't think he's a stalker, Kelly. We don't know him, remember? He is just some stranger that we unfortunately ran into. We were drunk too” She lowered her voice at the sudden embarrassment that comes from being drunk. The fact that she drank herself into a stupor because of Shawn made her question her sanity

Dinner was insipid for Sophia that Saturday evening after Matthew had left her. She could feel a sharp knife slicing her throat as she took a spoon of the cobb salad and masticated it reluctantly in her mouth until it formed a bolus ready to be digested but she suddenly regurgitated and emitted everything out.“ Are you okay, Madam?” Chris’s baritone struck, sending goosebumps to grow on Sophia’s flawless skin.He was fixing one of the faulty bulbs outside when he walked in and saw Sophia emitting on the floor in the large dining room.Like ice, so Sophia was defrosted at the sound of his voice.She turned back to the direction of his voice sustaining the cutleries in her hands up in the air.“ Ermmm… I’m fine” Her shaky voice managed to be heard by the walls around her.A flush of awkwardness swirled the air as Chris took some steps forward to the dining table. Sophia's brow furrowed, as she lifted her gaze at his deep captivating handsome face and his sharp eyes captured her pale

A flush of Adarnelina washed down through Matthew’s spine.His thick muscles were vibrating as he sat patiently in the living room waiting for Sophia and Nanny's arrival.It had been two hours since he returned from the other mansion. It was Christmas Eve and he wanted to sleep at home today and leave for his trip in Las Vegas tomorrow morning. Traffic however was horrendous that day due to the ongoing celebration of Christmas. It took Sophia and Nanny two hours before he got home.At the sound of Sophia’s car, Matthew narrowed his eyes to the large wall clock. It was 10: 40 pm already.Back in the car, Nanny told Sophia not to utter a word to Matthew and Sophia nodded her head.Shortly after they got inside, Matthew rose from the crouch breathing heavily with a dark expression clouding his face. “ Where are you two coming from without my knowledge?” Matthew struck angrily, his eyes narrowing to Sophia blazingly, but his speech was directed to Nanny Esung.The fact that Nanny was s
