“Are you going to start talking already? You are keeping me waiting, you know.”Keith heaved a sigh, there was really no escaping this.Camila pinned Keith down with narrowed eyes. There has been something bothering Keith for a while now, and she has tried the easy to try to get out of him but he was so insistent on keeping whatever was bothering him to himself, which has been getting her pissed for a long time now but she could not bit down on her tongue much longer and so she lashed out. The time she began angry about his silence was the day of the auction, and while everyone was supposed to be celebrating their victory that had been what she had been expecting from Keith too, he did make the best impression and made the most sales, even got so much recognition afterwards. At first, Keith had been acting right like he was supposed to but then halfway through the party his mood had suddenly changed and it was obvious that he had something that was weighing his mind down during the ev

Camila shook her head, laughing at herself. Keith immediately joined in on her laughter, scanning her face with an incredulous expression.“Seriously, Camila. It would have taken more than a jewelry set to get me bankrupt, you can be rest assured,” Keith said between his laughter.Camila scoffed, “I do not care about your money, I have more than enough to take care of both of us until we are both old and wrinkled.”Keith caressed the back of her hand with his thumb, a smile spreading over his face. “Old and wrinkled huh?” He wiggled his brows mockingly at her although his eyes shone with content. “I believe I have an idea what your dreams of me involve.”Camila blinked, “And what is that?” “Marriage obviously, first you discussed honeymoon and now you mentioned old and wrinkled, I'm sure your dream is filled with wedding bells and white gowns,” Keith said, taking her hand to his mouth so he could kiss it. Camila raised a brow at him and looked nothing like someone who was going to m

Camila frowned as she stared down at get now blackened phone screen, her brows knitted together in confusion and unsure of what to think of the situation on the ground. At first, she had thought it was a mistake but now it was certain that someone was trying to scare her. This had stated the day she was allegedly been angry with Keith which happened to be yesterday, but then someone_ an anonymous, unregistered number has been calling her at random times and sometimes even at auspicious times, like this time for instance. It was barely six in the morning and it had been the call that had interrupted her deep slumber. The annoying part was that the idiot would call and although using different numbers just for her to pick up give radio silence at the other end until she got frustrated and hung up. But that does not stop this idiot from calling again. Today was the most unbearable, she had finally been able to get some sleep after her whole argument with Keith all thanks to their resolvi

“How about the bodyguards? Haven't you seen any of them?” Keith quizzed despite the more rustling sound.“I am not sure I have seen any of them this morning, I wasn't exactly mindful of them,” she replied.“Good, hang on, and tell your driver to drive safe, I'm on my way, and relax please, everything will be fine.” will be fine.”Camila blinked as the phone beeped signifying that Keith had hung up. The person who was imploring her to relax was the one who was truly panicking, more than her, but she tried to understand his reason for panic and her mind flashed back to the revelation Keith had given when he had told her about what Sheila had said to him and the possibility of the deranged ex conniving with Abraham Connor. The way Abraham Connor's eyes fixed on hers that day of the auction flashed into her mind, she could remember vividly his cold and calculating deep brown eyes that refused to leave her face and how it was so reluctant to leave her face on that day. Maybe the reason for

Once Camila was sure that Keith was now calmer she sighed and spoke up again. “Good, because I have something else to talk about, regarding the call I made this morning.”Keith paused his movement to turn to face Camila with his brow raised in question, “What about the call? It was your tech guy you called, or was it not?” “It was, but it is the reason why I had called him this morning that I want to discuss with you actually,” Camila said, looking around the lobby. “We should sit,” she suggested.Keith's eyes widened and he visibly gulped, “Is it that serious that I cannot stand to receive?” “No, it's just the heels I chose to wear today, they are killing my feet,” Camila groaned out and without waiting for his reply she let go of his hand and began heading for the lobby seat reassured that Keith would come after her.“Seat fast and tell me what happened, all this suspense is driving me almost mad,” Keith said, dropping his weight onto the couch nearest to him.“For some days now,

“How did what I asked you to do go?” Abraham asked curiously with a brow raised at her.Sheila smirked with pride, “It went very well, thank you. I was able to convince the three companies you sent me to.”Abraham raised a brow at her, “Are you sure they truly agreed and they didn't just tell you yes to get you off their backs?” Sheila pouted feigning hurt, “You really should have more faith in me, Abraham. Of course, I wouldn't just leave without being so sure that I have their support, and it was pretty easy to convince the first two groups,” she said with her head raised high and her eyes shimmering with pride, but before she could continue speaking “You seem so certain, maybe I should give you some pride in that,” Abraham said nonchalantly, his eyes moving back to the pile of paper arranged before him.“As I was saying_,” she said ignoring what he had said, “All I needed to do was play on their anger from the auction day. It turns out that many other businessmen held Keith to he

Mrs. Hockings sat on the queen size bed, her gaze on the wall and her mouth curved downwards into a pout, the glow in her eyes almost completely gone as she stared unmoving. Mr. Hockings stepped into the room with his face holding its usual frown and his brows shot up when he noticed his wife's position and sad pout. He took in her surroundings, from the packed boxes beside her to her phone placed on her lap between her hands.“And what is with the long face, woman?” Mr. Hockings asked with his face scrunched up into a frown but one could see the concern deep in his eyes.Mrs. Hockings flinched with surprise at the sound of her husband's voice, she took her gaze to him and eyed him cautiously. She had not even noticed when her husband had come in that was how engrossed she had been with her thoughts. “Honey, I thought you were planning to meet with the lawyer,” she said, eyeing him as he approached the bed to sit beside her, the bed dipped with his weight, and scooted a bit to move cl

Keith adjusted himself properly so that Camila was placed very well on his lap and so that he was also comfortable. Camila snuggled closer to him but her attention did not shift from the phone between her hands, as she tapped swiftly against the screen. “Are you comfortable?” Keith questioned when Camila repositioned herself once again.Camila nodded, finally glancing up at her phone. “Yes, but could you not hug me too tight,” she pouted trying to shove his arm away, “I understand that you miss me but if you squeeze the life out of me now then you would have no one to hug.”Keith rolled his eyes, loosening up his hold around her a bit, “I'd just cuddle your lifeless form out of your then.”Camila frowned, peeping up at him. “That's a twisted thing to say, Keith, eew.”Keith scoffed, “Other women would blush if I gave them a response like that instead of saying I would find someone else to cuddle with.”“Well those are the other women and this is me, you should be thankful that I am n

Sheila sat behind the desk, clicking on the keyboard of her laptop, her eyes scanned the screen of her laptop, her entire focus on what she was scrolling through. On the screen of the laptop one could identify the logos of big companies that were involved with the real estate business, she tapped on the mouse scanning the screen with all her attention. The sound of the door opening snapped her attention away from the screen, and hastily she canceled her current search, taking her gaze to whoever had just walked into the office, her shoulders hunched up in a tense way but it immediately loosened up a little when she saw that it was not Abraham that had walked in, it would have been disastrous, especially with the fact that Abraham would be quick to notice her nervousness and sneaky movements and wouldn't stop until he got the information he wanted out of her.She glanced up with a forced smile as she watched Abraham's assistant approach her with an unreadable expression. If there was s
