Brenda had been literally down without speaking to Derek since the previous night. He left her lying in bed, and upon his arrival, she was in the same spot except for the obvious fact from her change of clothes that she had taken a shower.She had been sulking till noon when he arrived. "Babe, are you still mad at me?" He voiced to alert her of his arrival.Yet she refused him a thousand words, while she put all her effort and attention to the phone in her hand.He moved closer, sat beside her. Her sweet fragrance whiffed past his nose that he was forced to have some intimate moment with her, which he couldn't help to hold back when he rubbed her hair, but she restricted him from going further.Shifted to the other side of the bed to give him some space."I only wanted you to get your place back, they've thrashed you enough, but I never knew it would turn out this way." He apologized further, yet she said nothing.At the height of it, he stood to his feet and said. "What would you t
Derek dashed towards his home to share the news with his wife, he just couldn't wait to tell the news.Nothing suits me better than having a job. He said inwardly till he made his way home.However, while he walked, approaching home, he saw a scene which caught his interest, then he had no choice but to watch from far.It was nothing more than a scene between his wife and a stranger. The stranger seemed familiar, but he couldn't make out where he had seen the stranger.It was probably one of those whom Mrs Reid sent to ask Brenda out, while she tells her to divorce him. As such, he needed to know his wife's reaction.He hid out of limelight behind a vehicle with his family heart pounding really hard, all gestures of the visitor seemed to irritate him and also anger him."What the heck does he think he's doing?" Derek gritted his teeth, the moment he saw the stranger bring out a bunch of roses with the intent to hand it over to Brenda."Brenda, I want you to love me with all of you… we
After tearing the letter, with nervousness, the content of the letter was enough to send some shock across her bones while she fluttered her eyes and read.D- 20 Oasis,Dominican,4th December 2022.The Director.Dear Miss. Reid.I am pleased to inform you that you've been selected amongst many to be a manager of this great organization.Your passion for fashion has shown a lot, and a great conviction that you'd definitely be a great lead for Fera.Your dedication and efforts is all that's needed to move this great organization forward.In addition to this post, you have qualified to receive incentives, and a salary of two million dollars per month.Your work officially begins on the 7th of January. I look forward to meeting you in person in your office on that date.Sincerely, Mr B.Brenda couldn't help it. The content of the letter was quite confusing like she had gone through the process of an interview before, which she hadn't.She remembered she never shared her aspirations with
"Mrs Reid, Miss Reid has not been at work for a while now." Agatha the head of the cleaning department reported."Really!" "Yes Mrs Reid, neither did she submit any reason as to why she didn't show up." With a dismissive wave Agatha received an order to leave from Mrs Reid.Morphie looked up to Mrs Reid in confusion. "Brenda would never joke with her work, she takes it as the utmost and she believes that's her only hope. Why wouldn't she be at work? Could she have found another?""It's very much impossible Morphie, she would never find a job elsewhere, neither would the loser of a husband…" Mrs Reid said in affirmation."Appoint someone to get Brenda here, while you Morphie get the vehicle and head to the Emerald. If they don't call us, there's no harm going there as a means of reminder." Her face was covered with a devilish smile."Cassandra, don't you feel this is dangerous! The Emerald recognises Brenda and not Morphie. Morphie replacing Brenda isn't that sort of cheating? With th
While Mrs Reid waited an hour and half for a response, from the security she sent over to Brenda's home, Morphie came running in with smiles."Guess who's got a bride already." Mrs Reid turned her head in utmost confusion. She had sent Morphie to meet up for further details on the contract, how come he spoke of getting a bride."What manner of incompetence have you got Morphie? You are easily confused and do not set your mind to something." She ranted.Morphie was yet smiling even though his mom was really enraged, instead he calmly took his seat, adjusted his suit and said."Mom, calm your nerves, today is one of the best day ever for Reid's group…"His smiles were quite appealing, Mrs Reid caught some interest and got engaged."Tell me about it, how did it go?""Mom, you need not panic, Emerald is now in our hands…"Infuriated by his beating around the bush as she was never a patient woman to start with. A hit to the table and she spurted. "Spill it out now!"Morphie adjusted his sui
Morphie's character had been quite infuriating since he arrived in Sonia's office.The blabbings, not to talk of the lies, all were total bulshit.Now, he could even open his mouth wide asking to have a date with her, another nonsense she had quite faced, that day alone.To prevent more drama, she gave her word. "Fine, send me the address and date. I'll surely try my best to honor the date," she forced a smile.That's just what he has been expecting, he voiced happily. "Wow, nice to meet you, senorita. I'll make it up to you."The moment he turned around, Sonia had a sinister grin overshadow her normal expression. "We shall see. Nitwit."***"Hello Madam Yasmine. What’s the matter?” The question drew the attention of many, even the hotel staff had to rush over.The general manager realized that the rich lady in her forties was the wife of the Katz family’s Yasmine KatzAlthough the Reid's family wasn’t entirely unknown, they were still a second-tier family in Dominican. The Reid famil
Neither Brenda, nor Clarine knew the man who bowed before them. They were still in confusion over where these two invitations had also suddenly appeared from.However, Harold Katz knew this man, and so did Solomon Duncan. Who in the social circle wouldn't?His was Gage Ferguson; one of the most important and feared figures in the whole of Dominican.No one had ever achieved the aim to bring him down, as his name alone commanded respect. Gage was known to be the right hand man to the president of Primestar hotel and other leading organizations, but the chairman's identity remained anonymous.At certain events, Gage represented his anonymous boss. Even the family name was concealed.It was incredulous that he was bowing before Derek now.Solomon Duncan was dumbfounded and couldn’t utter a word. Even Harold trembled slightly.Derek was just about to step forward to receive the invitations when Yasmine cut in and snatched both invitations away. “These invitations must be fake. He’s just
“Brenda, let’s go. Follow me backstage, I need to meet this violinist.. Please!" She had her brows fluttering."I love him so much! I think I’m in love!” Clarine expressed she was completely smitten.Brenda was reluctant at first, but before she knew, she was dragged along to the backstage. But in the end, they were utterly disappointed.Derek had already left a long time ago, and the other musicians told Clarine that they didn’t even know the violinist.Disappointed, they left the backstage, but found Derek walk over with two cups of milk tea.With a smile, he handed one of the cups to Brenda. Then, he started drinking from the second.Clarine Landon watched on in disbelief and jealousy. “Isn’t that cup of milk tea for me?”Derek teased and said “You’re not my wife. Why should I give it to you?”Clarine was stunned for a moment and pouted, but she didn’t know how to rebut him.“Why don’t you drink from this cup?” Brenda felt a little awkward and handed her cup to her friend.“Forget i
