The secrets
“Yes, that’s his name. Why do you look so shocked?” Winconstin asked, staring at her curiously. “I’m not sure, maybe I’m just mistaking him for someone else,” Riley sighed, trying to place her driver’s face in her head. But she doesn’t really look at him that much and he had only been working a few days so she couldn’t remember his looks vividly. “Did you meet a man whose name is Tony also?” Winconstin asked again, he wanted to be sure that Riley hadn’t bumped into Tony one way or the other. It’s a small world and it was very possible for that to happen. “Yeah, my new driver. His name is Tony.” Riley clarified, shrugging the thought out of her head, it definitely was not the Tony they were talking about. But she was going to find out either way. “That’s definitely not our Tony, he’s as wealthy as any of you could be now, so there’s no way he’d be working as a driver.” Winconstin laughed, pouring himself some whiskey. “That's what I thought too.” Riley said, rising from where she

The Art of Coincidence
Tony couldn’t hide his shock because it came naturally and Riley’s eyes were fixated on him. He had been found out! That’s the only answer to what was happening now, Riley wouldn’t be asking for his full name if she hadn’t heard or seen something. “Since you were employed, I didn’t ask for your name or check your background, because Laurel was the one who brought you in, but I need to know now, tell me your full name, Tony,” Riley added, waiting for an answer. This was to confirm if this was the Tony her father spoke about, but if it was the same Tony, why the hell is he doing a driver’s job?. Tony was thinking very fast, should he tell a lie? Or just tell the truth? If he told Riley the truth, she’d just most likely take the job from him, but he could also tell her the reason he was doing it and she would keep him knowing who he really was. But if he told her a lie and she knew he was lying, she might not give him a chance even if she knew who he was, this was her company either

A Bump and A Call
“It’s you, isn’t it? Lilian’s friend?” Adonis was so excited to see her, how the universe just brought her back into his life was so satisfying. Now he was glad he decided to heed Riley’s invitation, if he hadn’t he wouldn’t have bumped into the woman he had plans for. He’d been thinking how he’d get her number from Lilian without her being suspicious but here she is, served on a platter. Laurel was still scurrying around picking up the papers that had fallen when she bumped into Adonis when she heard the voice, she wasn’t looking where she was going either so she had no idea who she bumped into, but now she did. It was Adonis, Lilian’s fiancée. Even though she had only heard that voice once, she recognized it. What the heck was he doing here? She asked herself in her mind.“Yeah, it’s me. I’m really sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going,” she apologised, arranging the papers on her arms and then tucking her hair behind her ear. “You work here?” Adonis wasn’t even concerned ab

Dreams and Conversations
“What stepbrother?” Adonis' face reverted into a serious expression. He wouldn’t even call the man that his father was talking about, his stepbrother. Adonis had developed hatred for him even before meeting him. “Didn’t Dad tell you?” Riley gave a curious look, she knew that wasn’t possible, he’d be the first person Winconstin would tell, or maybe her mother though. “He did, was the motherfucker here?” Adonis was now curious, he didn’t remember seeing any man when he walked in, well he wasn’t really paying attention to his environment because of Laurel's presence. “There was no way you wouldn’t have bumped into him, he just left,” Riley was still surprised that they didn’t bump into each other, but that wasn’t really a problem, they would eventually meet one day. From the look of things, it seems Adonis already hated the new addition in the family, and she wanted to know why. But first, she had to tell him why she called him here, before he became less friendly. “Well, we didn’t,

Confessions
Lilian got into the car and Adonis drove off instantly, there was an elegant smile on his face as he focused on the road. “What were you thinking about, you seem lost in thoughts till I pressed the horn,” Adonis asked, glancing at Lilian. She was really beautiful, and she smelled so nice. This was his trump card, his wife to be. So he didn’t need to rush. “Was just thinking what your mum would think of me,” Lilian replied with a shy smile. She caressed the Chanel bag she placed on her lap, easing her nervousness. “You don’t need to worry about my parents, Lilian. They're good people; you’ve absolutely nothing to be scared of,” Adonis stated, lighting up her mood. He was actually happy he was doing this, apart from the fact that he was doing it for a purpose; he loved Lilian and it was starting to get scary. Expressing love is a weakness to him. Lilian nodded without uttering any more words, she couldn’t wait for everything to be over. ***It was also that same night that Tony a

Confessions II
Laurel heard those words and it became as if it was just her and Tony in the whole restaurant, the silence that followed after the words was awkward. Even though it was actually what she was expecting, it still felt surprising and shocking. From their second date, she knew something was beginning to develop, and it wasn’t just him. She could also feel it, but because he was Lilian’s ex husband, it made her seem totally uninterested even in her own feelings. And now, he had come out plain, no beating around the bush, he had said the words as it was in his heart. The silence had lasted more than thirty seconds before Tony continued, seeing that his words had made Laurel speechless. “I really do love you, Laurel. With all my heart, starting from the first day I saw you again, Lilian left her large hole in my heart and you came and filled it all up. Please allow me to love you, I know you love me too, and even if you don’t, I promise you’ll.” A man of his calibre confessing his love i

Shockwaves and Surprises
Laurel’s mouth was still agape for almost twenty seconds since Tony revealed who he really was to her. She wasn’t just surprised but shocked and confused at the same time. All these still happened even with the hunch she had about who he might be, she didn’t need to ask him any more questions. He already confirmed clearly what she was still doubting. She knew that kind of coincidence couldn’t happen, Had Tony been lying all these while? She had so many questions to ask him, the night just got interesting. “A..Are….you sure about what you’re saying, Tony?” Laurel managed to get herself together, glancing around the restaurant for a moment making sure no one noticed her shock. Tony, who had already started eating, smiled with a piece of steak in his mouth. He had imagined this moment, but it was Lilian’s moment that he was really waiting for. “My name is Anthony Marcellus, Laurel, why’d you think that is?” Tony asked, cutting a piece of steak. This was the happiest night of his life

Not all Dreams come true
(Back at the restaurant) Tony had just dropped off Laurel at her home, using the opportunity to know where she lived and show her his latest Mercedes, so she’d be aware he wasn’t joking about the fact that he was wealthy. He sat inside his car for some minutes, just thinking about everything that had happened in the last few weeks, many of what he couldn’t believe had happened. His life was getting back to the way it normally was, this time he was even richer and he had a more beautiful and loving woman. What more could he possibly ask for? Thinking about all of these made him suddenly realise that he had not gone to see his grandmother since he discovered that Sir Winconstin was his father. She had questions to answer. He quickly ignited the car and drove off, heading straight to the home of the elderly where she was. The fact that he never even thought about seeing her was weird. Maybe the money really got in his head after all. ***Laurel closed the curtain and strolled into

Pandemonium
Gina was starstruck, she couldn’t even hold Lilian as she laid unconscious on her laps, she was speechless. Adonis quickly ran towards Lilian and knelt beside the sofa, tapping her cheeks while calling out her name softly. He couldn’t believe it, what just happened? She was fine and healthy all these while, there was no way she could just collapse all of a sudden. He hoped this didn't result in what he had in his mind, his heart was beating abnormally fast, everything was going smoothly, up until now. “Are you dumb, Adonis, call 911 for God’s sake, and Gina, have Walker come in here immediately,” Winconstin was really marvelled by how they were reacting to a situation where a person just collapsed, he was confused himself, but first things had to be done first. “Get her off me, Adonis,” Gina requested, somehow, she didn’t want to touch Lilian’s body, maybe she was scared that it’d be cold which would confirm that she was dead. Adonis carried Lilian’s unconscious body and laid it s

She’s going to have a Baby!
Gina was a little relieved but became confused when she heard Adonis’s words. “Pregnant? That’s not even possible,” Adonis retorted in shock and was utterly confused. How could that even be? Well, only one thing could have happened.Walker was also confused when he heard what Adonis uttered, isn’t he supposed to be happy that his fiancée was pregnant for him? It was a big relief that it wasn’t anything other than pregnancy. The doctor also expressed confusion on hearing Adonis’s words, shifting his gaze from Adonis to his mother then back to Adonis again. “Isn’t she your wife or something?” The doctor asked, it was obvious that Lilian was either his wife, fiancée or girlfriend, any doc would deduce that. “She is, but I’ve never had sex with her.” Adonis brushed his hands through his hair and walked away from the docs' presence, he went and sat down on one of the small chairs in the waiting room. “Thank you doc, I hope she’s going to be okay though?” Gina continued speaking to the
