Chapter Twenty one

She sighed, a part of her giving in as she noticed that she had a good chemistry with him.“Alic Incorporation.” She mumbled.“That’s where I work.”The name sounded familiar in Ethan’s head until it hit him, making a small smile creep to his lips like he just hit a jackpot.“Perfect! You’re going to help me!”Bessie stared at Ethan in confusion as the corner of his lips curved into a genuine smile.“Help you?”“How?”“With what?”“Don’t tell me you’re going to blackmail me now just because I got 20,000 from you? Gosh, I shouldn’t have trusted you.”“Can you just calm down?” He said, approaching her.“I may be all sorts of things but I don’t go back on my words. I’ve got no right to threaten you. That’s a very childish thing to do.”“I’m serious about being good and genuine friends with you.”“Then what do you want from me?”“I mean what can I help you with?”“I might as well just confess.”“You better do!” She mumbled, folding her arms.“I came here for business and I’m meant to be r

Chapter Twenty two

Samantha sighed, completely looking away from the laptop on her table and turning her attention to Kathie.“He’s actually a very cool person to hang out with. He wants more but I made him know that that’s not going to be possible.”“He said he was going to win me over. We shall see about it.”“It was fine even though someone tried to ruin it. But it ended on a really tense note.”“Can I go back to work now?”“Someone tried to ruin it? Who?” She frowned.“Ethan!”Katie’s eyes went wide. “Ethan?! As in the same Ethan? Ethan Blake? How the hell did he find you?”Samantha slowly massaged her temple, remembering that she hadn’t said a word about it to Kathie.“I don’t know. He probably came here for business. We first bumped into each other at the cafe when I went to meet the client. He made a scene and he saw me with Kelvin at night.”“At some point, I thought he was stalking me but I later discovered that the restaurant had a hotel beside it so he probably lodged there.”“Holy sh it, Sam

Chapter Twenty Three

Kelvin reached for her hand, pulled her up from where she was seated, sat on the chair and made her sit on his lap, and wrapped his arms around her waist possessively.“Kelvin…what are you doing?” She whisper yelled when she eventually found her voice.“You didn’t respond to my text. He said, looking her in the eyes. His voice came out so confident.She swallowed painfully. “What text? We should stop, someone might walk in.” “So?”“So?” She reiterated, looking at him with wide eyes, wondering why the hell he was so calm about it when she was literally freaking out.“We are free to do what we want and besides, no one can come in without your approval.”He released one of his hands from her waist, and slightly caressed the side of her thigh, up to her a***.Samantha shivered, her throat getting dry.“Here’s not the right place for this, Kev.” She mumbled. If there was anything Samantha had always held her head up high for, it was discipline in the workplace. She couldn’t believe she wa

Chapter Twenty Four

At this point, Kelvin was beyond upset. He left where he was and approached Bessie.He grabbed her by her arm, “What the hell is wrong with you? I don’t like you, I don’t want anything to do with you, why the hell can’t you understand that?”“And how dare you speak rudely to Samantha? Have you forgotten your position in this company?”“And what will she do to me? Have me fired because I caught her almost f*****g my man?”“If you say that again, I promise you that I’m not going to regret what I’m going to do to You!”, Kelvin said, giving her a very nasty glare. He was brought up not to lay a finger on women, Heaven knows what he would have done already if she was a male.The door flung open and Katherine came in, looking all breathless and worried. “I tried to stop her but she was way ahead of me. I’m so sorry.” She said, exchanging a glare with Bessie.“Never mind, She’s leaving already!” Kelvin spoke.“You’ve got a very shady attitude. You put out a nice facade so people would worship

Chapter Twenty Five

Samantha stood still, with nothing but confusion showing all over her face. She hated the fact that Ethan was seated there, smirking at her. A thought crossed her mind of honestly wishing there was something she could do to wipe the smirk off his face.She honestly had no idea what he was doing here but she could tell it was to attack her. She had predicted him to do worse things but never did it cross her mind that he was going to show up in her office.Beside Ethan was an unfamiliar face dressed in a deep blue suit. She needed no one to tell her who he was as she already had a good idea.And Beside the stranger was Mr. Philips. One of the board members of the company.Opposite them was Kelvin who was also seated, exchanging glares with Ethan who doesn’t seem to give a f***k as he had his attention on Samantha Samantha tormed out of the Conference room and Kathie followed suit.“What the hell is he doing here? Why didn’t you tell me he was here?”“I had no idea, Sam. I swear to you

Chapter Twenty Six

Philip said after which he went back inside the conference room. He met Ethan discussing with his lawyer.“I’m really sorry about what just happened.“It’s fine.” He shrugged it off like it was no big deal!”,“Really?” Philip said, surprised, truly not finding any trace of anger on his face.“It’s fine, Mr Philip.”He tucked his hands in his pocket, “Thank you for understanding.”“I’m sure all documentation will be done in due time and you will be notified of the next meeting so you can be properly introduced to the board and other members of the company.”“No problem. Thank you for seeing me on such short notice.”The duo exchanged a handshake with Ethan smirking at Kelvin who stood by the door.The moment Samantha stormed out of the conference room, she went straight to her office, ignoring the greetings of the few staff she met on the way.Once she got into her office, she went over to her desk, dropped the tab, and picked up her phone.With shaky hands and glossy eyes after she pi

Chapter Twenty Seven

He sighed when Kathie was out of sight. He shook his head in disbelief, wondering what sort of life he had been living for the past few days over here.Back home, nobody dared to mess with Kelvin or talk to him in a disrespectful manner. They could hardly even look into his eyes but it was not the same here. Almost everyone had zero respect for him and treated him like s****t. He could not believe he was facing all of these humiliations because of Samantha. Sighing, he tucked his hands in his pocket, then proceeded to her office.Kathie was discussing something with Samantha but she stopped when he entered the office.“I will see you later.” She picked up a file from Samantha’s table and proceeded towards the exit, giving Kelvin a stern look as she made her way out.“You want to see me?!” He smirked, taking steps towards her desk area.“Sit!” She gestured to the visitor’s chair opposite her.Kelvin obeyed, comfortably taking his seat.“You sent Bessie to harass me, didn’t you?”“I see.

Chapter Twenty Eight

Samantha was speaking at a go but stopped midway, reaching for some tissue on her desk to wipe the corner of her eyes.Things were silent between the duo for a while.The look she saw on Ethan’s face was really disturbing. Samantha saw that he looked pained and really confused.“But still, you moved on.” He said, bringing her out of her thoughts.“What do you mean? You expect me to keep moping around? Agreed that your marriage was forced, did you not move on with your life too?”“Your mom almost ended my life then. It is a miracle I am still alive and you are here blaming me for f****g moving on?”“Even if your mother had not chased me away, I do not think we were ever going to work. It was going to be a disaster in the end. You were getting married and I would not want to be the other woman.”“It was just going to be for a while until I found a solution. I am sorry about everything but I am deeply hurt too and disappointed. Even the d****n people I call my family are the major people

Chapter Twenty Nine

Ethan rolled his eyes and exited her presence, walking in the direction of where he parked his car, which was just opposite the building. He got into the driver’s seat and did a few breathing exercises.He started the car and took out his phone from his pocket, with the aim of buckling his seatbelt afterward, but he was distracted by the missed call notification he saw on the face of his phone. He had put it on silent mode while he was in the conference room.It was his elder sister who called, so he decided to FaceTime her back.Fedora picked up immediately, her face coming into view.“Christ, Ethan! Where the hell are you?”“What do you want, Fedora?”“What do you mean by what do I want? You have been away for days and no one knows where you f****g are!”“Where the hell are you? When are you coming back?”“I don’t know!” he answered nonchalantly.“You look lost, what the hell is going on, Ethan?”“Can I call you back? I need some time alone,” he said, already regretting calling her

Chapter Thirty

Ethan rolled his eyes, not believing his elder sister was starting to make this be about herself again.“It is fine! I’ve got this. I will talk to you later.”“Okay, bye!”He waved, then ended the video call. The engine of the car was already on so he drove out of the parking area to the direction of his lodge.The moment Ethan was out of sight, Samantha rose to her feet, reached for some tissue from the tissue box on her table, then made her way towards the window, wiping tears off her eyes and at the same time trying to avoid her mind lingering on the conversation that she just had with Ethan.Samantha was brought out of her thoughts when a knock came through on the door.She turned around, hoping it was not Ethan. But again, she thought that if he was the one, he would probably have barged in and not knocked.“Come in,” She answered with a cracked voice.The door opened and her bundle of joy ran in.“Mommy!” The little girl ran towards her where she stood and hugged her legs tightl
