Selena turns speedily when she sees that her mother was in the doorway. "Let me call you back." She says and he nods. " I love you." She says and her mother wrinkles her nose at the display of affection."I overheard your conversation about him being in danger. Is that the kind of man you want to end up with?" Her mother asked her.Selena scrunched her brows wondering why her mother found it hard to let her be. She was always in everything she did and she was ready to criticize her. If there was something such as making sure that she screened them when they were kissing. She was sure that her mother wouldn't hesitate to show you how eager her mom was. "Mom, you do know that I'm a grownup right?" She inquired because sometimes she felt as though her mom didn't understand that. " Encroaching my space and eavesdropping is low even for you. I don't think you should continue doing it because it's becoming annoying. I don't think I can stand it anymore. It's not nice at all. Do you think
Diana stood opposite the woman who was supposed to be her rival but in a case like this she wasn't here to drag her position in his life, rather she was here to make sure that she received help."I was a crying mess downstairs, I guess the security man decided to have mercy upon me and allow me to come in. Trust me, he searched the life out of me, I was almost getting annoyed but then again, I remembered that I didn't have that much of a choice because I need to make sure that I saw you." " What do you want from me?" She inquired from Diana. She knew that this lady was probably up to no good and it would be bad if she knew it and still decided to go on with her. "May we go into your office?" Diana suggested and she shook her head. Her office was an enclosed space. What if Diana attempted to murder her, what would she say? That she was stupid enough to be in an enclosed area with a bad person?"No, we may not. We'll have this conversation in the restaurant across my building." Selena
Dominic was busy punching numbers in his keyboard when he heard his phone ring, not in the mood for entertaining calls he decided to pick up for who knew who could be calling."Hey, I was almost knocked down by a car right now." Selena informed him and he sat straighter in his seat. "When and where were you coming from?" Dominic inquired as he stopped typing, his hands halted midair. " I went out to lunch with Diana." She replied softly knowing fully well that he was going to chide her greatly."So, how are you, where are you?" He replied instead taking her by surprise, she would have been free around him if he spoke what she knew he had in mind to say."Uh... I'm just walking back into the office." "Are you sure that you weren't hit by the car?" He inquired because he knew that sometimes, people often tried to downplay the power of cars and he also knew that just a small touch from a speeding car could cause damage. Even worse, internal bleeding. "Oh, no, I'm very sure that nothi
Selena took the car for a spin and was busy thinking of how all of this wouldn't have come true if not for Dominic but she didn't want to dwell too much on that fact. He had told her to ask for whatever she wanted but as someone who never relied on any man as a source of livelihood, she made sure that she didn't ask him for too much."Do you like it?" Dominic inquired from the other side of the phone when he didn't hear her voice. It was evident that she was stunned beyond measure. "I am just a bit overwhelmed. Scratch that, I'm very overwhelmed. I don't want to believe that... This is expensive." She replied. As a business owner whose company was just recovering from the dungeons she knew that pulling out such money from a business in such times was enough to cripple their finances. Yet, here he was asking if she liked it, of course, she loved it!"It's beautiful, lovely and expensive. I can't believe that you'd get me something like this." She replied. Dominic chuckled, that was o
Micheal walked out of his hiding place and headed towards Dominic who was busy thinking about what to immediately do if things went South. When the person you were going to meet comes to meet you first, it's always pure bliss because you have the total advantage and all the person has is the ability to rant about how they were better.Marcus took an unconscious step backwards as he stared at the man who walked out with a plethora of guards. They weren't too far from Victoria but were far enough not to be heard even if they called for help. It was as simple as that. " Oh, so you are appearing for what exactly?" Dominic challenged him.He was in the mood for some action but killing was not a part of them at all. Imprisoning them might suffice but outright killing was a no-no for him."So, I'll wait till you get out of this nonsense that you're about to try with me because believe me dawg, I don't have the time for this recklessness." He said.Micheal chuckled evilly. "I hear that you've
"You can also leave, I don't need your services," Dominic commanded Marcus who stood beside him, hiding as the people of the Czech city ran back for shelter. There was definitely no way that he could have gotten out of that risky situation had it not been for Dominic. "But, sir..." "You cease occupying that position with immediate effect. You are a coward. What would have happened if I didn't take control? If I was a spineless bud like you?" Dominic cut him short. These weren't people to rely on because it was certain that they'd fail at the slightest glimpse of an attack so it was better to steer clear from them. That way it would save everyone from unnecessary headaches. "Sir, I promise to be on my best behavior, I will not run away. I was scared." Dominic whirled around and the words died on Marcus's lips. Oops! He slammed a hand across his lips. That was a Freudian slip and one that could cause irreparable damage to him if he really wanted to take it up. "You were scared?" Do
"Darling, are you the owner of that car? It's so beautiful." Grandma spoke from the doorway cutting their banter off. The in-laws straightened their spines and gave Grandma a smile pretending to be at peace with each other."Yes, Grandma. My fiance bought it for me, he's the best thing that has ever happened to me." Selena replied enthusiastically, rubbing her excitement in Silas' face. "I mean a lot of people belittled him when I first brought him home but right now they can only wish that they are in my shoes. Sadly, they can't because it's not my fault that they are not use to doing the right thing nor meeting with the right people." Grandma hid her smile, she knew what Selena was pointing out and she didn't feel remorseful about it one bit. The only problem she had with Dominic was the seeming fact that he was broke but now that he turned out to be rich, she wouldn't mind a car of her own. "Anyway, we thank God that he turned out great, but this is just a tip of the iceberg, I
Meanwhile, Dominic sneaked around the house and cocked his gun. The house didn't seem heavily guarded but he still couldn't just barge in there because it could be hazardous, his mind tried to come up with an innovative idea that could help him in getting into that place as soon as possible. It needed to be almost immediately.His boots scrunched against the grass and some gravel, resounding through the entire land area. It would alert them that a stranger was around and that would have destroyed all of the things that he planned on doing right now. The kidnapper had spotted Dominic right from afar and was waiting to see what would happen. He smiled at Eleanor who Shivered in her boots. " Oh, your lover is coming for you." He said.A dash of hope flickered in her heart as she already knew who he was talking about. There was only one person who would ensure that she was okay. "He's not my lover.""Don't you wish that he was?" The man taunted her and she rolled her eyes at his assumpti
