Lewis decided to take the winning side."Walk with me ." Lewis spoke, directing the command to Philip. Lewis made sure to signal his guards, letting them know his next move.They stood by the pool side, embracing the view. "I called you here to talk business". The old man snapped his fingers and just like that Philip was surrounded."What is this madness?" Philip yelled."It's just business my boy." Lewis pattes his shoulder before walking away. "Bring him to the car". He instructed.The guards tied Philip up and out him in the car, driving closely behind their boss.The old man picked up his phone and called his granddaughter. "Hello, who is this?" Sophia asked."Give the phone to your lover". She instantly recognized his voice and did as she was told. She hurriedly gave the phone to Tyler. "Grandfather". She mouthed."Speak to me". Tyler affirmed."Where should I drop your delivery?" He queried."I'll send the address." Tyler hung up immediately and returned Sophia's phone. He place
The shocking turn of attitude towards Sophia left her in shock. She wasn't human neither was she with the man she began to love. She had only read about fairies, surely as a child she wished to be one but seeing as her wish had taken the most important person from her life, she couldn't be more devastated.As the days went by, Sophia and Tyler lived like mere housemates, coexisting and barely crossing each other's paths. Tyler hadn't told her to leave his house but where would she go? Sophia had paused her learning with Maya, after the incident with Tyler, she lost interest in everything. Nothing seemed fun anymore. Sophia thought it'd be better to move in with Maya and look for a job. With Tyler ignoring her and and irritated me her presence she knew her time was coming to an end. She reached out to Maya hoping her friend could help her for a while, at least until she can afford a place for herself. Maya agreed and asked that she came over after letting Tyler know. Sophia got tired
The sun beamed directly at his eyes, Tyler let out a faint yawn. "What a night !" Tyler groaned while sitting straight up on the bed , with his right hand rubbing his forehead due to the hangover from last night's clubbing and drinking. There were movements on the bed and his gaze shifted from the window to the other side of the bed . Just beside him was the lady he picked up from the club and had a one night stand with. He traced her body with his eyes and was amazed how endowed she was, her face was covered with a red veil. "She looks pretty, but what is it with the veil covering her face?" He thought to himself. "Morning damsel," he spoke, trying to wake her from her sleep. He stretched his hand to pat her gently on the hip. The lady frowned, troubled at the slight disturbance. She shifted in the bed, before opening her eyes, "Where am I?" She asked, slowly raising her body from the bed. Gazing at the man before her, she immediately noticed she was naked and had nothing
It was ten years ago. Tyler was involved in a terrible fire outbreak, which got him trapped with no way out. He had no one to save or rescue him from the flames that surrounded him that very day. All he could do was scream out and await his end. His vision soon became blurry as the smoke grew thicker. Tyler slowly began losing consciousness. But it was at that very moment he saw her. Sonia Walters, the one who risked her life to walk through the flames and pull a terrified Tyler out from the burning building. "Hold on to me!" She had yelled, placing his arm around her shoulder. Tyler did as she instructed, following his young savior, until she showed him the way out to safety. Upon reaching safety, he fainted due to the smoke. A bruised and partially burnt Tyler woke up to find himself in the South. He had been rescued and taken somewhere else. Away from home and away from the young lady who saved him. He never got the chance to see and thank her for her help. After ten years in
Philip felt pleased with the event transpiring in front of him. Unknown to the Walters family, the whole incident was part of his conspiracy. It was all his doing. Although there was a change in his scheme. Philip had hired those men to drug and take turns with Sonia, he wanted to film it and send to the Walters family, but it didn't go the way as planned. Sonia managed to escape their hold, ending up in Tyler's arms instead. Even though the stranger who rescued his fiancee wasn't among the men he hired, Philip was still glad that he was a man. As soon as the guys from the bar reached out to him about the situation on ground, he immediately went for the next course of action which was acquiring the surveillance footage from the bar through a bribe, bringing the photos down to Walters's home to ruin his engagement to his fiancee. What more could be expected of a 30 years old bachelor who still lives with his parents and believes marriage is a charade? Disgusting! Philip hated th
As the sleek black car pulled up to the gates of Arthur Palace, Sonia's eyes widened in disbelief. The sprawling villa before her was unlike anything she had ever seen, its grandeur surpassing even the most luxurious homes in Arthurton. "This... this is where you live?" Sonia asked, her voice barely above a whisper. Tyler nodded, a small smile playing on his lips. "Welcome to your new home, Sonia." As they stepped out of the car, Sonia couldn't help but stare at the ornate facade, the perfectly manicured gardens, and the shimmering fountain at the center of the circular driveway. "It's so... grand," she murmured, still in awe. "I thought... I mean, I didn't expect..." Tyler chuckled softly. "You thought I was just some vain man who picked you up at a bar?" Sonia blushed, lowering her eyes. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have assumed..." "No need to apologize," Tyler said gently. "Let's go inside. You must be tired." As they entered the grand foyer, Sonia felt overwhelmed by the opulen
The newlyweds, Tyler and Sonia, arrived at the Walters family home, their happiness quickly overshadowed by the tense atmosphere. Sonia's father, Clinton, stood awkwardly in the corner, his shabby clothes a stark contrast to the opulent surroundings. "Well, look who decided to grace us with his presence," sneered Uncle Richard, one of the Walters family elders. "If it isn't our resident black sheep, Clinton the Pauper." Clinton's face reddened, but he remained silent, used to such treatment. His low status in the family was painfully evident, his influence non-existent despite his connection to the powerful Walters clan. Aunt Lucia chimed in, her voice dripping with false sympathy, "Oh Clinton, dear, do try not to touch anything. We wouldn't want you to break something you can't afford to replace." Laughter rippled through the room, causing Clinton to shrink further into himself. Sonia squeezed Tyler's hand, her heart aching for her father but unsure how to defend him. Suddenly,
Sonia sat at her desk, her shoulders slumped in defeat. The prospect of negotiating with the Yale Group, a multinational corporation known for its cutthroat business practices, seemed insurmountable. She buried her face in her hands, trying to muster the courage she knew she needed. Tyler, noticing her distress, approached quietly. "Sonia," he said gently, "what's troubling you?" She looked up, her eyes betraying her lack of confidence. "This deal with the Yale Group... I don't know if I can do it, Tyler. They're so big, so powerful. What chance do I have?" Tyler's eyes softened with understanding. He placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "Don't lose heart, Sonia. We can do this together. I believe in you." His words seemed to ignite a small spark within her. Sonia straightened slightly, a glimmer of hope crossing her features. "Wait," she said, her voice gaining strength. "I just remembered something. My old high school classmate... she works at the Yale Group now!" Tyler's
