All through the night, Chris Bolton couldn't get as much as thirty minutes of sleep. A barrage of thoughts ran through his head. He was excited about the trip and his bet with Arthur, but his newly found discovery about Monica made him a bit worried. What if problems rose up between them? As early as 5 am that morning, he was up already. He had his bath quickly and dressed up in a casual white polo and blue jeans. He wanted to look as simple as possible and try not to draw attention to himself. Chris waited until it was 7 before boarding a taxi to take him to the airport. When he got there, he was shocked to see that Monica was already there waiting for him. Chris swallowed hard as he glanced across at her. She looked stunning as usual - this time on a red knee length gown with a slit that showed off her lustrous laps. Her hair fell in ringlets across her shoulders, adding to her alluring beauty."Good morning, Master Chris," Monica said with a slight bow.Chris wanted to remind her

Chris called for a waiter as soon as they had settled down and they all placed their orders. While they waited for him to return with their food, Mabel decided to start up a conversation."So Chris," Mabel started with a smile. "You say this is your new woman?""Of course," Chris nodded, entwining his hands in Monica's. "Met her a few weeks ago and we started talking then."He said that last part on purpose to spite Mabel, and make her realize that even when they had been married, he was already seeing another woman.It worked like magic as Mabel's face went bright red with embarrassment immediately."You were seeing her when we were married?" Mabel queried."We were just friends then," Chris shrugged. "But after our divorce, I put out a call to her. Turns out she liked me more than I thought and here we are now."Mabel scoffed and locked gazes with Monica for a while."So how did you meet him?" Mabel queried."We met at a local restaurant," Monica said. "I had just lost my card and h

Mabel pushed the door open slowly and peeped inside. The sight of Chris and Monica together in a jacuzzi greeted her and she was immediately shocked to the bone."Was Monica the secret business partner or what?" She muttered to herself.Chris watched as she stared on in confusion and he cleared his throat."Anything the matter, Mabel?" Chris asked. "As you can see, we're busy here.""She can join us if she likes," Monica said and winked at Mabel."I'm not here to speak with you," Mabel grunted to Monica. "Excuse us.""She's not leaving here," Chris retorted. "What do you want?""We need to speak, Chris," Mabel replied. She was already desperate, seeing that her plan to catch him had failed."I trust Monica," Chris said. "Whatever you want to discuss with me, you can say it in her presence.""I'm begging you Chris," Mabel pleaded. "Consider what we once had and listen to me this once. I have something important to tell you."Chris could almost not believe his ears. How could Mabel of a

The gala night came sooner than expected. Chris had been skeptical of the success of their plan at the event, but Monica had urged him to remain calm and trust her. According to her, she had got everything covered. Some minutes past 9pm, a few guests had started coming in. Chris had a representative wait at the door of the grand hall, to welcome all the guests while he watched as they smiled, shook hands and kissed each other's cheeks."The fake love," Chris thought to himself.He was disgusted by the sight of it - so many rich people gathered together for the sole purpose of giving a tenth of the wealth they had stolen from the masses back to the poor. To them, they were being very generous. To him however, they were nothing more than a bunch of thieves who wanted to cover up their evil deeds with a little generosity.Chris watched from the top floor as more people trooped in, and soon enough, he locked gazes with a man on an ink black suit. Everything about this man smelled like tr

The crowd turned immediately in the direction of Chris and everyone struggled to get a good view of him. A series of murmurs went up amongst the crowd as they wondered who the handsome young man who could donate that much was. The MC turned to Chris and started towards him and the latter rose to his feet, elated. This was his chance to get the ultimate revenge, to disgrace the duo publicly, and he was going to revel in the moment. "Chris Bolton," The MC announced with a smile. "Let's once again give it up for Chris Bolton." Everyone clapped and cheered and Chris waited for the noise to die down before speaking again. "As a shareholder and close friend of Sir Arthur McDoyle, I would like to donate on his behalf," Chris started. The MC nodded and Chris continued. "However, I don't want the money refunded to me." A series of murmurs went up amongst the crowd again. Everyone was whispering about the handsome man who was doing the impossible. How could he be donating so much to chari
