"I told him that I will be bringing you immediately. So are you ready to go?" "Am I?!" How could he even ask a question like that? What else would Jake be doing that was more important than meeting the man that could change his life? Of course, he was ready. "I am more than ready. Please, let's go." He urged Raymond. Quickly, he paid for the drink that he had gotten while waiting for Raymond and together they got into the car and drove off. Jake couldn't believe it. He was finally getting acknowledged for his talent and he was making money while at it. Everything was just perfect. Raymond drove safely and not as a crazy youth would. Jake enjoyed his ride completely and he could see why his boss kept him around. He suddenly remembered that he knew nothing about his boss. Not even his name."Say, what's the name of your boss? You never told me his name." "Well, that's because you never asked.""True. Well, I'm asking now," Jake turned his gaze from the road and focused it on Raymond
Happiness can be overwhelming. And a rush of emotions can sometimes lead to death if not handled wisely. Jake couldn't stop the butterflies that came alive in his stomach. He wasn't happy about the money, he had a ton of those. He was happy for the opportunity to be recognised because of his work. It was all he ever wanted. To be known as a fashion designer and Mr King who looked like a very good man promised to make his dreams a reality. To him, nothing could go wrong."I would love that sir," he said joyfully. "That's good. Well, let's go then. Let me introduce you to my family. My wife isn't around right now but my daughter is. I think she should be baking in the kitchen. She loves to cook, but for some reason, she doesn't want to go to culinary school. I don't this she has to anyway, she is born with the talent."Jake could sense that Mr King was a very proud father. He was devoted to his children, he spoke about them with so much love and his eyes glistened every time he did tha
Ivy had seen better designs in her time but there was something about Jake's designs that she couldn't put a pin on. It wasn't the best but it held a lot of emotions in it. It was something new and fun and she was always the type to explore new things. "Okay, I guess it wouldn't be the end of the world to give this a try so yes. I will do it and see what will come of it." She finally agreed. Jake had to bite his lips to keep from screaming. "That's just great!" Mr King exclaimed. "Okay, now I have a meeting to attend to so I'm just gonna clear out of here and allow you two to talk about the new designs Ivy wants and darling, do me a favour and chose a design for me as well and if you can also choose for your mother that will be lovely." Mr King walked up to her and placed a peck on her cheeks."Of course dad. I'll take care of it." She said and watched as her father walked out of the room. Jake heaved a sign of relief, finally, he was alone with her. "So, what designs would you lov
Ivy blinked her eyes rapidly as if she was trying to prevent some information from entering her head. It couldn't be possible. He couldn't be married not while looking so young. But who was she to conclude? In her travelling days, she has seen people much younger than him settle down and have a child or even two. Her feelings quickly resolved and she accepted that she couldn't believe he was married because she didn't want him to be married."You are what?" Still, she couldn't fight her natural instincts to ask."I'm married. I just thought you should know before anything happens between us." "How long have you been married?" She wanted to ask who the lady was but she feared that she may haunt her down and end her miserable life if she should find out about her. "I think it's been two months now," Jake answered honestly. Ivy stared dead into his eyes and then she burst out in laughter."You're joking right?" She asked in-between laughs."No, I'm not. Why would you think that?" Confu
In total, Ivy picked five designs for herself and two for her father. They were all very lovely and sophisticated, just like she always loved. Jake was astonished to see her level of knowledge about the clothes being picked. She was able to tell him what he felt when designing the clothes. It was as if he saw right through him and everything she did smelled of knowledge. He envied the man that would end up with her. Yes, he would have his hands full but he was also going to be getting the best wife in the whole world. She was the full package with a banging body, a sexy smile, a smart and fun lifestyle, and money. She had everything he wanted in a woman and he almost cursed himself for not meeting the woman earlier. He wondered what would have happened to him if he never met Amanda at all. For sure, his life would have been better than it was right now. Maybe he would have achieved all his dreams and still kept his friends but because of her, he let go of so many things and he was n
Jake didn't know how she kept surprising him time and time again. He rushed to her side and jumped on the bed yet again. She was about to call the number when Jake held her hand and said."How do you know her and how do you know that this is the same Bethany we are looking for?" "Instincts." She shrugged her shoulders and answered."No, that's more than instincts. How do you know her?""I used to go to high school with her. We rich children mostly went to the same school.""Did you go to the same school as Amanda?" "I certainly hope not. She sounds like a true bitch to me and I am not in the habit of keeping such as a friend. But Bethany was different. She was kind, loving, smart and funny. I don't know if it's the same Bethany as Amanda's friend, but I hope for your sake, it is." She then placed the call without asking for Jake's permission. Jake moved his ear closer as the phone rang. "You know you can just tell me to put it in speaker mood and I will. You don't have to come so c
Jake froze as he allowed the phone to slip from his hand. Ivy got a hold of it before it could make contact with the ground. "Are you out of your fucking mind?!" She yelled, removed the phone from speaker and placed it on her ear. "Hey, Beth." "Okay Ivy what's going on? I am so confused. How do you know Jake?" "It's a long story. How about we discuss it over a cup of coffee later today, how does that sound?" "That sounds lovely.""Okay, just send the address and time you want us to meet to me and I will be there. Take care now. Bye." She ended the call and focused her attention on a shivering Jake. She didn't know if he was going into a seizure but she did know that she was not loving the terrifying sight before her. His eyes were dull and his body looked like a big pile of cold water was poured on him. He looked like he had seen a ghost."Jake, what is it?" Ivy shook him and asked. After a few moments she shook him again and he finally answered."She is with that man. She is livi
Jake kissed her again. This time harder than he did before. He wanted her to lose all her senses. He needed her to stop thinking and just allow him to do whatever he wanted to do but unfortunately for him, she had learnt how to maintain her cool even when she was sexually aroused. When Jake noticed her hesitation, he again went to her clitoris to try and seduce her. It was a fight for dominance and Ivy wasn't going to allow him to win especially when the battleground was her body. But when his hands made contact with her already wet clit, she couldn't help but close her eyes and allow him to win."You are already wet for me. I like that." He whispered into her ears. She wanted to make him happier. Slowly her hands moved to her nipples and when Jake noticed it, he removed his hands from her clitoris and brought it back to her nipples. Before he could caress it and make her lose her senses, she pushed him away."Get out of my room!" She managed to scream. "Ivy," Jake chuckled. "Will y
