That's Nina, she was once a well known celebrity but only for a short period of time. No one knows why she quitted but during her reign, she was the best. Their mouth were left opened because the picture they all had in their head isn't what they are seeing. They all thought the model from LBC Corporation that's known to be third rated will look all shabby and ugly but no, Nina's looking splendiferous. The few crowd began murmuring to each other as Nina and Lia came nearer.Nina walked into the the building with her head up high, she carried herself with grace.People must surely have something to say about but she doesn't care. She released a beautiful smile at the people she sees on her way. "Good afternoon Mr. Gunn, I hope we are not late." Lia said to a middle aged man as they finally entered into the building. Mr. Gunn is the director. He has been in the industry for over fifteen years.He also wasn't left out from the gaping at the model before him. "Not at all, the shoo
Nina will know when the magazine is out."Why did you leave the dress for her?" Lia asked. She wondered why Sintia doesn't seem to like Nina and vice versa. But seriously? That lady that just left is so arrogant. Lia already hate her for the attitude she just wore. All Nina did was smirk as an answer. No one understood what she just did except her. She's not stupid! Nina did that to make them see her as the good one. And it worked well by seeing the ladies faces, Nina can see the hatred for Sintia in their eyes. Nina is simply finding her way to the top. "Help me with the zipper please." Nina said. The lady smiled gladly helped her in awe. Seems this pink dress is meant for her. Nina looks so flawless in it. Her beautiful body glint inside the dress.She looks so beautiful even without makeup. They did a retouch on her face. "Wow! How did you manage to look beautiful in everything? First, the dress you wore to the office earlier that pinned everyone's attention to you and
"Are you okay Nina?" Lia asked worriedly, as much as Nina is not a great talker, she doesn't like when she's silent. She look strong and unaffected by what just happened. "Yeah, I am fi..." Nina paused hearing the beep of her phone. The caller ID flashed Derrick on the screen. She pressed the green button and Derrick's voice boomed."I am just right behind the car you are in, come out. We are going home" He ended the call before she could reply. "Lia." "Stop the car, I will go home from here." Lia glance at her confused. "I can just drive you home if you want." "Don't worry, someone's here to pick me up. Please relate to Mr. Brian that the shoot went well" With that, Nina came out of the car. She couldn't think straight, if she did would think of what Derrick was doing there in the first place and how he knew she was inside the car but Nina's mind was covered with mud as at the moment. She spotted Derrick's car packed by the road side, she rushed inside and met Derrick ins
They both are perfect match. A match made in heaven.Her perfectly shaped lips were inviting, Derrick had to control himself not to do anything that will put him on Nina's hate list.Patience! Patience is virtue. All of her is his so why rushing? In two weeks, he can have her as he pleases but if only she's comfortable with it. Everything about her is worth the wait."Good night beautiful." Derrick sighed making his way out of Nina's room. ~ NEXT MORNING: Derrick walked closer to Nina. His hazel eyes boring into hers. Nina's eyes almost jumped out of its socket when he grabbed her waist. What's he doing? Nina found herself closing her eyes when his face inched closer but... Derrick's eyes went to her hair. Her brought it down to her shoulder and then, he took as step back from her. "You look more beautiful when your hair is on your shoulder." He complimented and chuckled.Nina mentally slapped herself, how stupid was she to think he was going to kiss her. Her cheeks turned

Derrick stared at their hands linked together then at her beautiful face. "I don't know Derrick,I might not feel the way you feel for me but believe me, I appreciate the fact that you are in my life. I feel very safe and at peace being with you" "Even if I don't love you now, I will learn to love you for the rest of my life. I just don't know howei feel towards you now. Please be patient with me." "This mansion looks like heaven, look at you Nina. You've changed so much." Vina said running her hand on Nina. Derrick's definitely the best thing that has ever happened to her best friend.Nina chuckled seeing Vina gazee at her with wide eyes. "Stop gazing at me like that." Nina protested. "So tell me, what's being happening? I know you have a lot to say so spill." Vina urged her as she eagerly waited for Nina to say something. "Well, I went into modelling." Nina quickly said. She doesn't know how she's going to break the news of her marriage to Vina without her shouting. "What?
Hey! I just saw her personal account. Let's go and flood it with millions of followers. We love you Nina, we love what you do. I wish Nina can hug me, ah! I will never hug anyone else. I am glad Nina is back. I just heard that the magazine is out of stock in just few hours. I need a copy of the magazine. I will place it under my pillow. Maybe one day, I will get to meet Nina. Holy moly, Nina's account was just opened. Guess how many followers? Shit! She's so lucky.Wait! It's really Nina Micheals! I think I am gonna faint. I never thought I will see Nina again. Geez! Who is seeing the lady in the front. I have watch this magazine for a hundredth time today but I am just seeing the lady in the front.That's Sintia! How come she's invisible? Oh! That's Sintia? She's might be a backdrop. Nina is the main advertiser of this very magazine. Can't you see it? Sintia is a backdrop! Can't you see she wasn't even seen? I didn't know she was there till I saw the comments. Sintia should
"Oh God Nina, can I go out with you? I want everyone to know that I am your best friend. I will scream it to the world." Vina said dreamily. Nina chuckled! She had always believed she will get her fame back but what she does not know was the fact that a lot of people out there love this much. They love she saw online was massive. "You will forever be my best friend Vina, I will flaunt our friendship in public still, that doesn't describe how much I love you." Nina said Rochas and Vina was her only family before the Xaxin came into her life. Nina feels she owes Vina her life!"I am so proud of the woman you are becoming Nina." Derrick said stealing a peck from her. It means a lot to Nina to see her loved ones proud of her, to see them encouraging her and accepted her just the way she is. "Thank you Derrick." She said with her cheeks turning red. "You are welcome baby." Derrick replied with a wink while Nina rolled her eyes earning a chuckle from Derrick. "You will never change.
"Calm your nerves Carena, you should be worried about yourself and not your daughters." Nelson grinned devilishly. "Why are you doing this Nelson? What has your brother and I done to deserve this? Why did you kill my husband and son?" She asked weakly. It came to a point there was no tears coming down again. She had cried a lot in a day and it felt her tears have dried. No single tears left in there anymore. "Are you asking me that? Wasn't it obvious I hate CaNina so much? I hate him and hate everything that belongs to him including his wife and children." Carena flinched at Nelson's confession. She was taken aback. "H.he is your brother, why will you hate him? He has lived his life for you Nelson. He took good care of you to the extent he neglected himself. You own half of his properties, he gave you everything you've ever asked for Nelson? What did he do to see death as compensation? He singlehandedly built a company in your name and handed it to you, what else has he not done
"Drive them away, I will meet you all in our place." their leader instructed. The rest bowed, hopped into the van and drove off leaving their leader with CaNina and David who laid on his father like a dead person with his eyes closed and finally oblivious of whatever was happening around him. CaNina drew David closer to himself protectively. "Please, you've taken my wife and daughters away. Don't harm my son I beg you, you can do whatever you want with me, you can kill me even but spare my son." CaNina said. He was already loosing a lot of blood on his head due to the hit. His voice was fading away very fast but he tried to keep his eyes opened to make sure David doesn't go through any harm.The poor boy is just twelve. The huge man standing right beside him and pointing a gun to CaNina's forehead laughed humorously. "I am just doing what I was sent to do, no amount of begging will save either of you so quit trying." With that said, the huge man poked his head inside the car, ro
"I will make him miserable, I will crush him that he will wish for death than rather being in this world. Never in his life will he harass any lady again." "Mr. Brian has drawn the battle line and we are going to fight this." Derrick replied in one breathe. The fact that he touched Nina annoy him a lot. That aggravated the demon in him as they kept growling like a wolf. Nina clasped her mouth shut without knowing what else to say, she should get used to Derrick already. It is no news that Derrick bring down anyone who offend him. Nina sighed gently rubbing Derrick's shoulder and that literally worked. It calmed him down, as much as he was still very mad. That touch he is feeling at the moment has made him calm. Mr. Arthur couldn't help but shiver, this is new! Even when Derrick got to know Nina's family were humiliating her, he wasn't as mad as he is now. Mr. Arthur thought of how much his Young Master love Nina, is that why it angers him that another man almost had his way wi
"For pushing me Nina, I was trying to be lenient with you but you proved stubborn. Don't you know? I get whatever I want. The only thing I cannot get in this city is what belongs to Derrick or his family anything else is trash." He said kising her neckline aggressively. If only he knew Nina is Derrick's wife. Nina yelled in anger, he touched her? He really did lay his mouth on her body.Without thinking, Nina gave him a slap! Mr. Brian staggered with his eyes growing wider as he held his cheeks. She didn't do that did she? He underrated this lady in front of him so much. He didn't know Nina will prove hard to get. "The next time you try this nonsense with me, I will make sure you spend the rest of your unfortunate life behind the bar or better still, you will be dead." Nina said giving Mr. Brian the shock of his life. She doesn't care if she gets fired. "I miss them." the man said sniffing. David sighed wiping his Dad's tears. "I miss them too but you can't be crying anymore,
When they were young, they'd make their pinky promises that way. "Alright big brother, I will send you the address right away." Nina replied saving her brother's number. That moment, a call came into her phone. The caller ID was unknown. "A moment Rochas." Rochas nodded still processing everything he has just heard. "Hello, Good afternoon." Nina said politely. She's been wondering who'd have her personal number aside her in-laws, Derrick, Vina and Lia. Even Mr. Brian doesn't have her number. "Nina..." Nina narrowed her eyes on hearing the voice. She knows this voice so well. "Sia? What the hell? How did you get my number?" She literally screamed while frowning in displeasure."Please Nina don't hang up on me." Sia begged from the other side of the phone.Nina smirked which made Rochas raised his eyebrows. His sister has changed so much, aside her behaviour towards him, everything else has changed. The image of this new Nina is cold, icing, and ruthless? He really needs to k
"You are fired." Derrick yelled at the lady whose hands flew to her mouth immediately. She knelt down and began pleading in tears, she didn't know Mr. Xaxin will be different from other single billionaire bachelors out there. "I am sorry Sir, I am sorry. I promise you. I will never try it again." She pleaded. "What was your offense?" Derrick asked icily. The lady opened her mouth and closed it back with no words coming out of it. "I asked you a question Miss Boise, why am I firing you?" He asked again hitting his desk loudly which made the lady flinch in fright. She have heard a lot about Mr. Xaxin but she never thought he will be this frightening and cold. His expression right now is enough to scare anyone. "Get out of my office if you can't speak." He yelled. The lady gulped down the lump that was forming in her throat as she tried speaking. "I... I... I... I... I tried seducing you Sir, I am sorry please don't fire me." the lady said in embarrassment. Derrick breathed ou
"Nina." Rochas called cupping her face as they disengaged from the hug. He rather see her first before going to see their father in the station. "I miss you Rochas, I thought I will never see you again." Nina said in excitement while she access her brother. "Well, here I am strong and healthy. I am sorry I wasn't there for you when you needed me sis, I am really sorry for leaving you. I am a bad brother and I am sorry" Rochas said sadly, he never wanted to study abroad. He never wanted to work abroad, all was his father's idea. They pushed him away from the only sister his parents and sisters hated for no reason. Till now, it baffles him why they all hate Nina. Nina is their flesh and blood. If Rochas wasn't there when their mum gave birth to Nina, He'd think they adopted her but he was right there beside his Mum when she gave birth to Nina. Even if he was very young then, he could remember his mum gave birth to Nina. She was never adopted so why did they despise their own dau
"Mr. Arthur are you okay?" Derrick asked from the backseat. "Y... yes younger master." He replied nervously. If he reduce his salary, how is he going to cope with taking care of his brother's school fee? "I asked you a question and the best you could do is halt the car? Don't you know I have a meeting to attend?" Derrick asked calmly. He's just so in a good mood he doesn't want to get mad at anyone. "I am sorry Young Master." Mr. Arthur replied reigniting the engine and it roared back to life. "You haven't answered my question Mr. Arthur." Mr. Arthur sighed sadly, he thought Young Master would have forgotten about it."$10,000." He said monotonously. Mr. Arthur have to beg his Young Master to have mercy on him for any crime he might have committed.Reducing his salary should be out of his punishment. He need the money. Derrick nodded his head not sparing Mr. Arthur a glance and that worried him a lot. Mr. Arthur waited for his faith to be announced as he thinks of how much his
Derrick spoon her from behind, she rose to the feel of his hand lifting her thigh. She moaned when he entered her and together they rose for their satisfaction. Hands tangled together, mouths fused together, they rode the crest until they went over the edge together. Their cries mingled together and their breaths became one."I love you." Nina whispered for the first time and she passed out after the words left her mouth. Derrick's eyes bulge out in excitement. Sh... she just said she loves him. Nina just said that right? He felt thrice as happy as he used to be. "I love you too." Derrick replied being sure that Nina couldn't hear him. The intimate moment with Nina made him feel fulfilled. He has marked his territory, from this very moment, Nina has fully become his possession."Mine." He muttered giving her a gentle kiss on her cheeks before falling right beside her. "What in god's name made you do that Sia?" Mrs. Hilton yelled at her seething her teeth in anger. Sia sat down
