As Mercury stepped out of the car, she was startled to see a familiar figure waiting for her on the sidewalk. Her ex-boyfriend, Andrea Scott, stood leaning against his car, his arms crossed over his chest as he watched her approach. Mercury's heart sank at the sight of him, her mind reeling with a mix of emotions, she wondered what he was doing at her place and why he appeared suddenly out of nowhere. She hadn't seen Andrea since their messy breakup, and the sight of him now filled her with a sense of concern.“Andrea?!” She called out with curiosity. “What are you doing here?” Her voice sharpened with anger demanded of him as she stopped in front of him. Joe Cole watched a bit from the car and stepped out to draw closer. He was aware of her relationship with Andrea Scott, it was a trendy topic when they started and an even more trendy topic when they broke up. To every young person, it was a picture perfect relationship. A multimillionaire NBA superstar dating the daughter of the P

On one hand, Joe Cole couldn't shake the memories of the romantic night he had with Mercury, the First Daughter of the United States. Never could he have imagined that happening. The poor and wretched Joe Cole everyone laughed at and ridiculed, the Joe Cole Emily dumped because he was too poor for her. Now, he was sharing romance with a lady that was ten times Emily's status. He couldn't shake off the feeling he felt, a month ago this would have been a fantasy dream to him but now it's a reality. To make it more amusing to him, he realized that he wasn't the one who wanted it nor initiated it, it was all Mercury which meant she was in love with him. He sighed, ‘I am one damn lucky guy.’ He thought to himself. His time with Mercury had filled him with a sense of value and pride that he hadn't felt in years. Far beyond what he felt when he was, as it were, dating Emily before she made him realize he was nothing but a piece of trash who did her school tasks for her. Joe Cole found hims

Jake and Emily go to the Kings and Queens Collection to splash some money around, as usual, they came in with their rude and arrogant attitude. Parading themselves about like they owned the place and throwing insults at everyone that was unfortunate enough to cross their path.“Hold on, babe. I thought you informed them of our shopping today?” Emily looked stunned by what she saw, she didn't expect to see anyone else at the boutique shopping for anything. With the shock, she drew Jake's attention to it and the billionaire heir joined her in surprise too.“Yes, I did. And why are these peasants all here?” He blasted, fuming with anger. It seemed someone didn't get his memo to reserve the place exclusively for him and Emily to do their special shopping spree. “Hey you, come here,” he ordered one of the attendants with anger.The young man hurried towards him with admiration in his eyes for Jake and his pretty fiancee. “Good day, sir, and…” “Shut your hole. Who gives a fuck about your g

Jake and Emily continued to create a scene at the shopping hall of Kings and Queens Collection until they called for Linda. Linda walked to them and enquired what she could do for them.“I want this place evacuated this minute. Send all these poor folks out of here now!” Jake thundered his instructions to her.Linda looked drained of options and conflicted between her choices. “Sir, I must say, your reservation for exclusive shopping was canceled and hence why it may not be possible to carry out your instructions.” With a calm and reasonable tone, she made it clear to the couple what the other attendant had tried to explain to them before he received a slap.“Babe, what the hell is she talking about?” Emily looked confused as she questioned Jake, it didn't seem possible to them that they could make a reservation and the reservation would be canceled.Jake looked at Linda sternly, his anger channeled from not getting a proper explanation to the audacity anyone had to cancel his reserva

Joe Cole sits alone waiting for Mercury's arrival, his attention stuck on his iPad as he dived into doing some work before the beauty goddess arrived. He had planned the dinner as he told her he would, making it as perfect as it can be. The location was an exquisite location for the ultra-rich in the society and he kept it as a surprise to her.The Cole Empire was fast growing already, his team were the best as they had put his vision to work and built something more beautiful than he could have expected. As he went through his iPad to check out the progress on their new acquisitions and business dealings across the country, his face lit in smile, shining brighter than the soft glow that enchanted the entire place. His team were on a deal to acquire another prime business in the city, and he was expecting a call from Rachael to inform him of the success of the negotiations. While he awaited her call and Mercury's arrival, he took the time to scan through the business's data and baske
