“It’s fine,” she sighed, giving up on her dreams to get him for herself as she knew it would not work. “I’m really grateful for all of this.”Without waiting for a reply, she alighted his car as his driver took off with the door closing automatically.When she alighted and he drove off, she watched him drive away feeling annoyed and frustrated.Annoyed that he had declined all her proposals and frustrated that all her seduction poses and attempts had been ignored. What kind of a man was he anyway?Other men would have fallen for her tricks. Richardson was proving to be more stubborn than any man she had ever met on this planet.From the gathering where she had tried seducing him in the bathroom, to the office she had attempted that again and now in his car. They had all been an epic fail all because the man was too stubborn to heed to her seductive tricks.With a shrug, she started for the apartment, getting into the elevator to get to Michael’s floor.***While walking towards her ap

They both stared at each other in hatred wanting so much to rip out each other’s throats.He wanted her to feel the pain she was causing him and she wanted him to do the same.She had gone through a lot that day only to come home and find him laying around like nothing mattered.While other successful men worked out there, he was staying home playing video games. Did he think the money for her new bags and new clothes were going to drop from the sky? He had to work if he was ever thinking of affording them.“I got embarrassed today because of the stupid stunt you pulled off at the store with Richardson’s girlfriend the other day,” she said, ripping off the band aid and telling him as straight as it was.“And you’re just putting all the blame on me…”“Yes!” She yelled. “Maybe if you have more self control anytime you see that girl you would not be dropping me in your little problems every now and then.”“Are you seriously blaming me for what happened? I was there with you too.”“Yeah,

The two men listened with solemn silence as their friend talked about everything — from the horrible way he was getting treated down to the bag she had gotten without letting him know where it was coming from.They were shocked by the recent attitude she had displayed as the two men looked at each other with a sad smile and a nod.Michael finished his story with a smile, “And that’s that. I’m here, sitting in a bar with you two.”Danny was the first to talk as he picked up his glass, “I’m pretty sure it isn’t my place to say this but I think your wife is cheating on you.”“She isn’t my wife… yet,” Michael corrected. “And I had that hunch that she was cheating but I dropped it aside. I don’t think it’s possible.”“Dude,” Paul butted in. “You said she got a ten thousand dollars bag with her money. I know women and I can tell you that it isn’t her money. Since you didn’t give her the money to get it, then it means someone is giving it to her.”“I hate to agree with Paul over here but he’

Richardson punched the bag with everything in him, sweating and heaving like he had been going for hours. Maybe it was because he had been going for hours at the bag.He had been in the gym in the estate, punching his feelings out on the bag. He was taking out his frustration on the bag and he was not going easy on it.He wished at that moment that he was a superhero who could punch holes into the bag but beating it up was fine.With each punch he gave out, he remembered what had happened at the meeting the other day and it got him even more angry as he increased his punches with more rage.Ever since that video of him had been shared amongst everyone at the meeting that day, he had been extremely worried and had been trying to find out who had been behind it.He had tried calling up Philip to ask for his help but Tom had rejected the idea. The old man had suggested that they keep their suspicions to themselves.They knew how everyone hated the heir, they only needed to find out who h

What had made Jennie tremble was the fact that the man standing beside them was the exact man who had bullied and humiliated her in the hospital the first day she had met Richardson.Seeing him now brought back the fears which she had tried so hard to let go. It had taken a couple of weeks to finally rid that feeling of helplessness and weakness she had felt that day but seeing him in front of her brought them all back.That day had been her worst day at her workplace and even when it was the start of her new friendship with Richardson, it still bothered her and gave her nightmares for what would have happened if he had not intervened.Who knew, maybe she would have been in prison for whatever lies the man would have told the police, or maybe he would have beaten her so badly she would need to be hospitalized in the hospital she worked at.Richardson patted Jennie’s trembling hands down as he sized the man before him up. The brute had tried to do a disgraceful thing by beating up an
