"Today I'm going out to find out about Eric and return to him, I just can't continue with you, you are a broke fool." Susan returns from the market to find her daughter quarreling with her fiance whom she wanted so badly to marry.

She is surprised, claps her hand in utmost shock. "What! I didn't believe Scarlett would ever raise a voice against this man she claims loves and wants to marry." She hastens into the apartment to settle the conflict. Their concern shouldn't be Frank but getting to know Eric more and trying if they could be with him again.

"What's going on here?" She asks any random person that would respond between the two of them, Scarlett and Frank. Frank is too upset to even look at her who is asking the question. He never expected this breach of loyalty because he really loves and trusts Scarlett.

"I want to be with you, please don't do this to me." He pleads with her but her ears aren't simply just with him but somewhere she had rejected before.

    "For your information, I'm not Eric, I'm Mr Carlos and that's what you are gonna address me as. The only person who is permitted to call me Eric is my woman here. Take note!" Scarlett's mouth is shut, her lips tremble and she surely wants to say something but all words escape her memory. None wants to come out from her lips. "But…. but… Hmmm."

A tall, young man walks in dressed in a white long-sleeve shirt and a pair of black trousers. His hair is styled in a perfect office style. "Good afternoon sir." It's 12:45 PM. He walks over to his boss desk and stands, waiting for the next word from him. Eric is typing into his desktop and it seems to be a serious thing he is working on. "Good afternoon, how may I help you?" He replies at last, looking up for the first time. "Sir, I'm here to deliver a message I got to you. It has reached me from Mr Carlos that your debut as the new CEO of Hollywoods would be taking place in weeks. Three, probably." "Isn't it too short, Mark?" Eric asks.

    "Hello, come in." He puts up a serious face. "I don't want her to know I'm excited to have her here." He mutters, taking care to make sure it isn't loud enough for Raine to hear. She opens the door and walks in. "Please close the door behind you." Eric instructs, standing up to spread his hands and capture her in a passionate hug as she is done and then walks towards him. "You're here!" He pulls off from the embrace and hugs her again, taking her by the hand, he leads her to the couch opposite him and makes sure she sits before he actually sits. "Why did you call me?" "Well, relax. It's something important." "My mother's case?" She is so excited that she is fast enough to say it out before she even realizes. Eric smiles. "No, we would talk about that some other time but before the end of the week, I'll add another money to the one I gave for her payment." Raine falls on her knees, Eric gasps. "Please rise!" She ignores him, crawling to him with tears in her eyes. "I don

    Jack Robert's enthusiasm in getting more information from Frank shows in the way he takes additional notes himself despite the fact that his secretary is going on with his job perfectly. He can't afford to miss a single detail. He clears his throat, then looks up to Frank. "How many guys did you take with you to attack Eric?" "I took about four and we used a helicopter to navigate while another car was down.

She was pale skinned so it matched with her skin color as she was a little bit fair. Her hair was plaited so she just let it fall over her shoulders. Grace wore a light pink gown and packed her hair up. She looked so beautiful in it. They all went downstairs as the party was about to begin. Each of them complimented their looks and dressing as they met their parents and did the same. They looked so beautiful also. Husband and wife wore almost same clothes.

    He was going for the real deal and wanted to be sure she was prepared for it. He opened her legs apart, creating a bigger passage for whatever that was going in between her laps. He used a finger and strolled down from her navel to her genitals, flickering with the labia majora and labia minora of her womanhood. He could feel the sensation it created inside of her as he smiled and watched her getting all heated up. He felt some sticky and whitish liquid, ejecting from her onto his finger. Going further, he played with her clitoris, prodding on it gently and slowly caressing it. The liquid that ejected from her body became much, staining his fingers and wetting the bed sheet on which she lay. "Darling…I'm just getting started. Get ready to soak the bed." He said to her more in a whisper as he smiled into her sexy looking eyes. She didn't reply to him but he could read his answers from her eyes which were saying "don't stop, go on." He stopped caressing her vagina using his finger

    He licks his hand as he inserts back two fingers at a time and digs into her vagina. He keeps penetrating his fingers into her as she moans while sucking on his dick. "That's enough now. Open up." He says to her as he goes over to her legs and opens her thighs widely. He looks at her vagina, as if studying it. It's all covered in fluid. Monica can see him swallowing some saliva as she smiles. "What's up?" She asks him but he doesn't answer and does not look at her. "You get wet at the slightest touch. I wish to always have sex with you, every day and every hour." He says to her as he caresses her thighs. "Saying that makes me even get wet…" She replies back as she bites her lower lip. "A sweet sex" "I can see that already. It's increasing." He replies as he watches how she squirts as her vagina makes funny noises and each time those noises are made, more fluid comes out of her again. "What are you waiting for? Are you going to let it waste?" She asks him as he still does nothing

    Going back in, he continues to prod into her. She squints her eyes as she tries to hold back the shrills she is feeling. He holds her two thighs with two of his hands, creating a V shape with her legs as he continues to suck deeply. With one hand, he reaches for her chest and squeezes her breasts, pressing them against her body. His dick that is already erect from the beginning of their sexual pleasure has already begun to spill out some colorless liquid. She turns her head from one side of the bed to the other, shrieking out. When he is satisfied with sucking her, he goes in with his fingers. Lining out every part of the hole, he slides a finger in, moving up and down inside of her. He slides two fingers into the hole in her, making her more wet than before but it is more painful. When he is sure she is wet enough and her little passage is well lubricated and not dry, he penetrates his manhood into her as she lets out a cry. He thrusts it forward and backwards into her, pushing

She has done worst to me, she needs to pay” Eric said with so much courage and boldness in his voice as he sat up at his consultant. “Then you sho
