There were many things that made Selena annoyed and murder was one of them. She didn't want to believe that it was true because the man that she was seeing didn't look like someone who could do what he was accused of. It was very annoying that he didn't feel remorseful. Marcel threw his head back and laughed. "That's bullshit. How would you accuse me of killing my mother?" He turned towards Selena who was also staring at him with judgment in her eyes. "You don't believe it right?" He asked her and she stared at him nonchalantly. "Are you kidding me now? Why is everyone acting weird? How in heaven's sake would I kill the mother who birthed me. I mean, who the hell does that? I would never do it no matter what is involved. You can't accuse me and expect that I'd be able." "Is there anything that you can use to justify your claims? You can't just accuse me!" He yelled. "You can either believe that or keep arguing. I'm done with this conversation." Dominic replied and went inside the
The door creaked open as Marcel stepped out of it in his sleep wear. A lock of his hair fell over his eyes and he pushed it back before making his way towards the kitchen.The house was still awfully silent, a clue that everyone was still asleep. He scrubbed his face with the back of his hands.On entering the kitchen, he hears soft footfalls behind him. He turned around and his eyes met with Dominic's. Their gaze held for a few seconds, before Marcel cleared his throat before looking away. It was obvious Dominic was still angry at him.Dominic brushed past his brother, as he grabbed the kettle pouring a cup of water into it before placing it on the cooker, waiting for it to boil.A muscle ticked in his jaw. Marcel would have been out of his house if it was left to him. But somehow, Selena had managed to convince him to let his brother stay and yeah, just so she could be happy he conceded.After a few minutes of long stretched and awkward silence between both brothers, Marcel cleared
Camara walked into the consortium. She looked around, it was quite a surprise that Selena works in a company as huge and big as this. She proceeded to the receptionist who in turn directed me to the secretary."Hi, I'm here for the interview" She muttered as she stood in front of the woman who was very much engrossed in her laptop.She glanced up, smiling warmly, before pointing at the elevators to me."The boss would interview you himself, please take the ride to the last floor" She muttered and I nodded walking towards the elevator even as nerves wrecked her insides.Riding to the top floor, she muttered a silent prayer to herself hoping she gets this job. The elevator pinged and she stepped out of it. There was only one office on the floor, the one she guessed belonged to the boss.She knocked and waited for the response that came a minute later. Rubbing her hands together, she stepped in.The man had his back to the door as he looked outside the window. She cleared her throat hopi
Selena shut her eyes as she took a large sip of her coffee. She stood in the kitchen basking in the scent, Dominic had left for work earlier than usual so it was she and Marcel alone in the house... Not totally alone though.The sounds of footsteps got her snapping her eyes open and staring at the doorway where Marcel stood. He gave her an apologetic shy smile before walking into the kitchen."Good morning" He greeted and she raised a brow, quite surprised."Mornin'" She replied and watched him get a mug and make himself coffee.Silence stretched between them. Selena had no idea what to say to him or what he would want to hear. His relationship with Dominic was at the point of no return, or that's what she thought."I'm leaving today" He stated and her eyes widened as she stared at him." Oh, so soon?" She asked, he only gave her a lazy smile. One that she spotted the hurt underlying."Yeah, I think it's for the best seeing Dominic isn't even ready to savage our relationship" He let o
Even after assuring the MD of her competence in the Job, Selena felt like an additional bag of pressure had been placed on her. Her conversation with the MD couldn't help but bug her mind no matter how many times she tells herself she is trying her best. She couldn't help but think they are just saying all this but if they hate it. Selena was very deep in thought, when she pushed open the door to her office. Everything was in place just as she had left it except for the man taking her seat behind the desk eating her food. She raised an eyebrow, all her worries momentarily forgotten as she smiled in amusement. He still has not noticed her presence as his focus was on a file on the table, which he was flipping through. His hair was styled backwards with the help of a gel. He was wearing a white long sleeve shirt, not doing much to hide the muscles rippling underneath and it flexed as he flips through the file, and a deep blue tie. His long lashes fanned his cheek anytime he blinked. H
Dominic decided to hold a party. He had a meeting with his bodyguards on how the party was supposed to be like.“Anyone who passes through that door and is successfully marked by the sensor would be allowed entry into the house. Anything asides that, they must receive a formal permission from me before they are granted entry inside. Am I understood?”“Yes boss.” The bodyguards all chorused in unison.There were just a few hours left until the party time. They started assembling themselves in strategic spots where the censors were located.As soon as the party kicked off, Selena approached the grand hall. She looked ravishingly beautiful in her dress, hair beautifully made and parked into a ponytail.The moderator of the party immediately caught sight of Selena approaching the podium.He went up in high praise of her, unable to get his eyes off her.He faced the crowd. “Can we all stand up while we welcome the latest bride into the hall? This lady here is the reason why we are all gat
Marcel crept out of the toilet and walked straight to where Selena was standing. He needed to inform her about what was happening. How did they not know that Tyler was working for Silas? That was still a source of wonderment to him.Selena, distracted, turned and shot him a smile before disengaging from her husband's hold at his persistent stare."Hey, what's the problem? You look worried. Aren't you enjoying the party?" She asked him, her voice turning concerned."Nah, that's not the problem at all. I'm just trying to..." He sighed and quickly looked around. His gaze fell on Silas who was chuckling at what Camara said. "May we have this conversation in private please?" He inquired and she smiled at him before taking one last glance at her husband to see if he knew what was happening."Okay... Let's see what your brother thinks about that. I can't just leave him." Selena replied and walked up to Dominic who was also making small talk with one of the men who were present. He was obvious
“I need to tell you something,” Selena said, rushing to Dominic who paused and turned after hearing her call out to him.“What’s that? You need to hurry. I'm actually in the middle of something but go in. I'm listening.” He said with a smile on his face.Selena paused for a while to catch her breath before she started talking to an attentive Dominic. “You won’t believe what I heard, you just won’t believe it just the way I didn’t believe it at first when I heard it.” Selena started.Dominic was now more Interested in the topic because he wondered what it could be that Selena heard that got her this worried and annoyed. “Go on Selena, I’m listening.”“Marcel told me that Tyler was sent by Silas to spy on us, can you imagine the audacity ?”Dominic arched an eyebrow at her in doubt or uncertainty.“I’m serious and I believe it. What should we do?”“Do? We are not going to do anything, if you act based on meaningless and irrelevant things you won’t know how to act when it’s time to.” Do
