Eric held her hand and they both walked back into the house with only one thought in his mind, which was to make Darius pay for what he had done the hard way. He heaved a sigh as he climbed onto the bed, thinking about what had happened earlier in the day. Samantha walked into the room and lay beside him on the bed, heaving a heavy sigh. Eric tilted his head towards her slowly and she gave him a pale look, taking off her gaze slowly as he could only imagine what was going through her mind as she lay there on the bed. He cleared my throat lowly as he wanted to talk.“Baby!” Eric said in a low tone, and she took a deep breath.“Yes!” She replied, and he exhaled heavily.“I am sorry for what happened earlier today. I promise it will never repeat itself.” Eric said in a low tone as if he were whispering.“Let's forget about it. I just hope Darius doesn't come back with another strategy to take me forcefully.” She said, and he shook his head slowly.“I doubt he would be after the display t

Darius was back on his feet now, tilting his head from side to side as he still could not believe his eyes and ears. How did he manage to pull that stunt? He asked himself but could not find an answer to that question. His heart racing so fast that he started to breathe through the mouth. He knew how important that project was for him and his company and would do anything to have the contract back. He took a deep breath as he lowered his head trying to think of what next to do but nothing was coming to his head as he could not think straight.Eric stood there, with his hands wrapped around his chest as he enjoyed the view of what was going on. He heaved a sigh as he tilted his head to look at the receptionist that earlier insulted him. He made a cocky smile, and she took her faze away immediately as she thought, how could Eric be this important to her boss all of a sudden. Eric stood there, quiet, not uttering a single word. There was a moment of silence as Darius was still in pleadin

“Come back here you scumbag. Who do you think you are?” Rachael questioned in anger as she pointed at Eric. He stopped instantly, thinking of what next to say to them. He heaved a sigh as he tilted his head slowly to the back to give them a straight stare, bringing out his hand from his pocket to wipe his face. “You are still not doing what I asked you to do. Focus less on me and more on how to pay Darius. You know how cruel and mean he can be.” Eric replied with a grin on his face as he tilted his head slowly to look at Michael, who had a frown on his face. He forced out a breath as he walked slowly towards Eric, staring at him directly in the eyes as if he wanted to land a punch on his face.“Leave. I don't ever want to see you here. Do you get that?” Michael said in a sharp tone as he pointed to the door, and Eric chuckled.“You heard him right. If you by any chance come back to this place again, I will put your sorry ass in jail.” Rachael said as she breathed heavily. She could n

“To have a nice time with the husband of my best friend. At least if I am going to like you as her husband, there are baby steps.” Sonia said in a low tone as she leaned forward to look at Eric clearly.“Samantha and I do not need your approval. I don't need you to like me. Samantha loves me and that is all that matters.” Eric replied to her sharply and waited for her to talk, but she kept mute for a moment. Sonia thought that trading words with him would only jeopardize her plan, and she was not ready for it. She heaved a sigh as she already knew what to do to him.“You are suddenly quiet. Did I make you realize something?” Eric asked and Sonia tilted her head to glance at him, resisting all urge to talk back at him, but finally gave in to the urge. “You know what? Let's just have a nice time, and we will talk about all these when are done eating.” Sonia said in a low tone, and Eric nodded his head slowly, adjusting on his seat as they waited for the waiter to bring their orders. No

Eric rushed home quickly, as he did not want to delay his wife any longer. He walked into his house swiftly, but he could not find his wife in the sitting room. “Honey!” He yelled as he walked towards the kitchen to check on her but was disappointed as he could not find her there. “Where could she be?” He wondered as he slowly walked out of the kitchen to the room, hoping to find her.“Samantha!” He called out as he walked into the room but stood there with a look of confusion as he could not find his wife. He took a deep breath as his heart began to pound faster. Worried about his wife, he slowly walked to the bed and sat on the edge, using his palm to support his chin as he leaned forward. He heaved a heavy sigh as he tried to think of where his wife might be at the moment but he could not think of any.“Rachael!” He suddenly whispered as his mind wandered off to Samantha's mom and brother. He stood up rapidly from the bed and made an attempt to walk out of the room, but he decided
