The rage Sean was battling broke free then.He didn't need someone to remind him where he came from.Launching his body like a missile at Clement, Sean aimed for the knees so he could tackle Clement to the floor.People screamed and inched away when they started to fight but Sean was just getting started.Folding his fingers into a fist, he drove it into Clement's pretty face.Over and over again.On the third time, Clement managed to catch his hand, twisting it to the side.Sean yowled in pain, pushing off Clement's body but he launched a blow at the side of Sean's face.“A couple of classes in Karate isn't going to prove anything!” Clement panted.“It will after I've beaten you to a bloody pulp!” Sean growled, stomping on Clement's feet but luckily he was faster, rolling away to avoid getting his leg crushed to pieces.Clement was quick to get to his feet, his fists positioned in front of him.One thing Clement didn't understand was that Sean was not only proficient in fighting but

Sudden rage filled Clement's heart when he saw his mother smiling at Sean. “So is that it? You come in here and announce that Sean is my brother and I'm just supposed to accept it and sing kumbaya around bonfires?!”“Clement, calm down.” Sean said with authority but Clement was far beyond listening to anyone.“No! I'm not going to listen to anyone, sure as hell not you!” He spat. “You're never going to be my brother, you know why?”“Why?” Sean humored him, taking the heat off Moriah.“Because you're competition.” He replied, pacing around the office. Clement adopted a casual tone, pretending to gain interest in things as he walked past them. “You see, I was living just fine before you came along, and fucked everything up! Because at the end of the day Mom likes you a lot more than she likes me, meaning the company's going to go to you and I don't want to be around here to watch that.”“Don't be ridiculous, Clement!” Moriah snapped, tired of this child's play they were having. “Sit you

“Come in.” Caesar rumbled, his glasses perched on his nose like a strict headmaster.Moriah walked in, standing close to the door. “You called me.” She stood ramrod straight, staring into space until Caesar was ready to talk. Dressed in matching designer tops and pants, finishing up the look with a floor-length nude coat, Moriah's hair was slicked back into a low bun at the nap of her neck, a light makeup was on her face.She looked good, more dressed up than usual but then again, it wasn't every day that the head of the family asked to see you.Finally, Caesar peered over his glasses taking in her appearance in one swift look. “Cone in, and shut the door behind you.”Moriah did as instructed, crossing her legs over each other with her hands folded on her lap.She didn't dare utter a word even though curiosity was burning a hole in her tongue.When she got the message this morning from her secretary, she had to check again making sure she wasn't wrong.Caesar removed his glasses from

A week later Sean had a week to think through his decisions, and options and bring out new strategies in the bid for the CEO position. However, he hit a snag. The second test they had to pass according to the contract Moriah had them sign with a clause stating whoever won the company fairly and square would take over and the other part would relinquish without much struggle. The marriage issue. Seeing as Amelia was out of his life for good- after the court case leaked, no one wanted to have anything to do with them anymore and they were too ashamed to show their faces around in social circles- that left Sean with no other person. Sure he could go outside and dare but he was quickly cured of the hope that a woman would fall in love with him for who he was and not the position and money he had. He was running out of options which was why he joined a dating app, under a false name of course. His past two dates had gone wrong, but he believed that the third time would be a charm.

Just like he suspected, Chloe needed his help.She was a struggling secretary who had several responsibilities from home, in need of comfort, money, love, and a shoulder to lean on.All things he had to offer to her.Through Rebecca's sneaky ways- to date, Sean had no idea how she managed to pull Chloe's information- he was able to get her number and then he messaged her.That graduated into calls and after a couple of days talking to her, he managed to wear her down until she accepted his invite to his home.Sean offered to pick her up but she declined.Stirring the pot, he checked the YouTube video he was watching on what step he needed to carry out but the phone's screen was foggy with steam from the pot.Sighing, Sean stopped stirring looking around in frustration.This was what he got for trying to surprise a woman with his cooking.The kitchen was a mess, he was no way near done cooking, and…he had only twenty-five minutes before she would knock on his door.His spaghetti Bologn
