Mia released an exasperated sigh. She felt somehow instantly at the way her family members were talking. She already told them how she felt about Kevin. She didn't know why they didn't want to believe her.Even though she wasn't entirely clear about who Kevin really was, she had hints. She was just certain that Kevin could really help them if he wanted to.But then, maybe she shouldn't have invited him here. Seeing the remarks they are currently making was starting to make her feel regretful. What if they weren't able to change Kevin's mind and he ended up not agreeing to help them?The Perry family would be in real trouble. It's only a matter of time before the company collapses, and nothing will be left of them.“So, are you going to help or not?” “Kevin is not going to help, obviously. He can't help. He's just lying,” Morris remarked teasingly.“Yes! Or he seriously won't be on about this. He must have finally lost favour with Alessia,” Morris' father said.Kevin felt helpless beca

Kevin was shocked at what he was looking at.Kevin regarded Mia for a moment. “Is this really what you want?” Mia shrugged briefly, “Does it matter?”Kevin scoffed. He wasn't only shocked; he was also disappointed.If Mia thought she could do this with him just because she wanted to safeguard the company, how was she so different from Hoes?And did she really think he was going to jump at the offer? “Are you not in the mood?” She said it seductively, swinging her hips towards him in a manner to entice her.Kevin scoffed. “I'm not doing this with you, Mia. And like I said earlier, your company won't go bankrupt.”My countenance changed immediately. She wasn't expecting the response that she got from Kevin.Mia was a curvy, beautiful woman. There was no way Kevin wouldn't even want to do this with her.“I'm not coming home tonight. So, you shouldn't wait for me,” he muttered, turning around and walking out without waiting for her to say something else.Mia watched him for a moment, unt

Again, his date with Alessia has been ruined.Alessia nodded quickly. “You should go quickly. I will find my way home,” she assured.Yet again, Kevin felt bad that his date with Alessia had to come to an end now, but then, Alessia was someone that had been with him for a while now. If anything, he shouldn't be worried about it.He could have as many dates as he wanted with Alessia. She was his safe haven.Kevin hadn't realised that Mia was around him. He didn't even notice. She looked at her table again, and there were four empty bottles of alcohol.Even with the way she was struggling with the men, one would be so sure she was drunk. What could have made her drink so much? Since he had known her for a year now, he knew she wasn't the type. Mia doesn't drink, let alone get drunk. She doesn't even like going to clubs. The men had successfully pulled Mia out of the club while he spoke with Alessia the other time, even despite her struggles. She was no match for the men's strength.He to

Kevin had to enter Mia’s room again to pick up some clothes. Mia was still sleeping and didn't even shift, even though the door made a creak sound.She really had a lot to drink anyway.He got dressed as early as seven o'clock so he could leave the house. But he made sure the whole family of Perry were done eating before he walked out.He didn't want to face any issues that morning. Unless Mia had told them what he said, they would still be pestering him and being annoying.Kevin didn't want that early that morning.His phone beeped suddenly as he stepped out. It was a message from Jake. It said he was already waiting for him outside the house.He hadn't called him. So, he wondered how he was known to be waiting for him in front of the house.He stepped out nonetheless.Truthfully, a black BMW car was waiting outside. Kevin got inside the backseat.“Good morning, sir,” Jake said the moment Kevin got inside.Kevin looked at him. “Good morning. What's happening?”Jake smiled. “I have a

Kevin was shocked and skeptical. For some minutes, the only thing he could do was stare at the message.Why would Mia give him a job in the company? It was something that has never been done.He read the mail for the third time. There was even a date for him to resume. He was supposed to resume work the next day as early as nine o'clock.Kevin laughed at this. He picked up his phone and went through his contact list. He hesitated when he saw Mia’s number, but it only lasted for a few minutes. Kevin dialled her number.It rang the first time, but there was no response. He redialed, but there was no response as well.So, Kevin decided to give her space; perhaps she was in a meeting. She would definitely call back when she sees the notification.He stepped out eventually and walked back to the dining room. The foods have been spread on the table. In fact, there were different delicacies there.Jake sat, salivating. It was vividly clear he was happy by what was in front of him.His phone
