The evening ended on a good note for Cade. Raegan called him as she had said she would. They talked till late into the night and by the time the call was over, both participants smiled themselves to sleep. They agreed on a time for when they would have the movie date suggested by Cade. But Cade kept the location a secret. He wanted to surprise Raegan. They would have the date during the weekend. Cade could not wait. Raegan herself looked forward to it. During the week, Cade got himself busy with work and curating his evidence against Alex meticulously. No iota of information was to be missing from his documentation. He wanted to make sure he had every evidence possible to bring Alex to book. But he would also begin gathering evidence for when Alex and his mother tried to kill him years ago. Cade was not sure which of the men had been in the car with him that day, but he knew it was not Alex's boys. They had been hired just for the purpose of killing him that time. After so many years
Cade and Raegan continued going on dates when they could. Because of their busy schedules, they could only meet twice or three times a week at most, but they spoke everyday on the phone. They made sure to stay away from the public most times so people would not start speculating about their regular meetings. Only their family members knew that they were getting close to each other and that was how they liked it. Raegan’s father was excited, but he was nowhere near excited as Cade’s mother. The night that Cade invited Raegan to his mothers house to have dinner together his mother had cooked enough food to feed half the town. It was after that night that Cade had officaially asked Raegan to be his girlfriend with a grand romantic gesture. Raegan accepted and they agreed to keep their relationship secret. They didn’t want reporters and other nosy people trying to break them apart. But their plan for secrecy was ruined by Raegan’s father. The president was overjoyed to have Cade as a son i
Cade's security staff looked long at the woman standing just outside the apartment building. Cade had his own private elevator to the penthouse suite and the guards stationed there stopped her as she tried to get in through there."Mr Cade is quite busy now and would not want to entertain visitors." The first guard announced. He did not know this woman, and the last incident with Alex had taught him a great deal. He was only lucky that Cade was a kind man, else he would have kissed his job goodbye that day. A reporter had almost deceived them into letting them allow him inside Cade’s apartment that day, it was only because Gale had arrived that the man was discovered as a liar."Please tell him that it's someone he would like to see. I assure you that he will tell you to let me in." Hailey said haughtily.How dare they stop her from going to see her man? When she got married to Cade again, she would make sure to fire all of them.“There is no visitors list today, Ma’am, which means t
With the happenings and events going on with his family – on both sides – Mackenzie had begun to regret his youthful decisions. He was regretting having to leave his wife, Cade's mother, and going to Cassandra. It all started when Lucia, Cade's mother, gave birth to Cade. Before giving birth to their son, Lucia and Mackenzie were in love, even though their marriage was not a love marriage. It was an arranged marriage by the parents of both Lucia and Mackenzie. Mackenzie's father, who was a really wealthy man, thought it would be good if his son got married to the daughter of his rich politician friend, because the friend was the only person richer than him in the country. Then, Mackenzie had been in a relationship with a girl, but at his father's command, he broke up with the girl to be with Lucia Travinsky. Lucia on her part was not told of the arrangement, but her parents kept telling her how much their endorsed spouse for her would treat her well. Now, Lucia was innocent as a dove
Cade's phone beeped twice. It was a message from an unknown number. It said, ‘Cafe Throne, let's meet there. Now. It's urgent!’ Cade looked at the message again. Who was this? It was not his mother, he knew, because she always hated Cafe Throne. It was not Raegan because she was on the bed with him. It was not Gale because Gale never sent those kinds of messages. It had to be Alex using a different number. Cade laughed after figuring it out. "What's up, baby?" Raegan asked. "Oh, nothing. Just my brother being my brother.""Oh." she said. She was about to ask why Cade and his brother were fighting so much when he stood up from the bed. Her own phone beeped and she groaned as she picked it up."I have to go now. It’s important. An investor is demanding my presence or my company will be sued. I’m really sorry, I know we were supposed to spend the day together." She said as she got up from the bed."It’s okay, I understand more than anyone how work can get." He said with a smile. “I’ll
Hailey was done having Cade's nonsense. After the embarrassing stunt he pulled on her the last time, Hailey was up with a fatal plan for Cade. How dare he shove her out of his house naked like that? He just had to pay. It was a usual ritual for Hailey to go back to her city and sulk for a while before coming up with a new plan, but not this time. This time, Hailey did not even need to go home to make any plans. She could easily come up with something that would kill the man, and only because he had refused to cooperate. So, after some time passed since the last incident between them, she made a new plan and went to visit Cade again. This time, not to seduce him. This time, to teach him a lesson that he would never forget, so when next he sees her, he would act right. It was a very sunny day, more sunny than it had been in the past few weeks. While some saw it as a clement weather for their events and thanked God for it, Cade saw it as an inconvenience. He had a few errands to run acr
Hailey raised up her neck like one who was proud of what she was yet to say. "Well, you and I created magic together. Believe it or not, I was the actual reason why you became this big again. So, we are a team, and you should come back to your team. We’re good together, and I admit that I may not have treated you so well in the past but I was just trying to inspire you to do better. And look at you now, you’re doing great. I deserve some credit for that, not to be tossed aside like I mean nothing when we both know that you love me.""With the way you raised up your eyebrows before speaking, one would think you were about to say something wise. Only to be disappointed by the stupid shit you spew over and over again. Each time you talk, I'm disappointed, when I should be used to it by now. But you want to know why I can't get accustomed to how you talk? It is because somehow you manage to sound even more stupid than you sounded a second before saying another word. Now, haven't you just
The news travelled fast like wildfire, and before the day was over, a hashtag on all social media platforms was trending. It was tagged #ceocadeisarapist. It started from the young lady who had recorded the live event, and got so many shares and engagements, till it was the talk of the whole country. Cade sat in his office with a scowl on his face and was even more shocked. How did Hailey think of such a demeaning thing to do? To have run out of his office almost naked? Didn't she have any shame? And to cry about being raped? Where did that come from? He had not even touched her! Matter of fact, he was going to give the security staff an order to never let her in the company's premises again, but look at what she did. He shuddered whenever he looked into his phone. It was one post or another on Facebook, or one aggravating tweet on Twitter. It did not end at the social media platforms, the news channels had begun to circulate a video that Cade could guess was from the people who rec
