Aiden wished he had told her about the money offer earlier, he wouldn’t have come.
He couldn’t possibly accept such huge sum of money from Katherine. He had only asked that she helped him with his daughter’s medical bills and help him get his job back. But half a million dollars? That’s way too much for Aiden to accept.“Katherine, I can’t accept that.” Aiden refused and Katharine pouted sadly at him.“But why, Aiden?” She inquired and proceeded to run her hands down Aiden’s chest slowly and calculatedly. Aiden’s body stiffens at her touch. It’s been ages since any female had tried to be flirty with Aiden.He wondered if Katherine was trying to seduce him to accepting.Katherine leaned in closer to Aiden, whispering into his ears ,“Come on, Aiden. Just accept the marriage proposal.” Her tone sounded inviting and alluring. Katherine mouth gradually leave Aiden’s ears and began to work their way towards Aiden’s lips, about to give him a kiss. Her other hand still on his chest, caressing his brawny and defined structure.“Don’t think about it too much, just accept.” Katherine cooed seductively. Seeing that Aiden wasn’t resisting, she decided to up her game a bit to remove any form of hesitation in his mind. She lifted her legs, straddling herself on Aiden as she sat on his laps. Her skirt rode up, baring her soft and succulent–looking thighs as they buckled against Aiden’s hips. Aiden gulped down nothing, a warm feeling licking his spine. A Hot CEO was on his lap! And not only that, she wanted him to marry her as well. Aiden was tempted to wrap his arms around her waist and feel her up; it was very hard to comport himself, her thighs were pressed against his zipper and the friction was doing things to him that was making it hard for him to control himself. He knew she could feel him rising against her thighs, because she smirked complacently seeing that his body was responding very well to her touch. She began to work her hands down his bloodied shirt, Aiden was surprised she wasn’t repulsed by him. She began undoing the buttons, one–by–one and Aiden felt paralyzed by the looming lust and for some reason, he couldn’t resist. He just watched her gently and gradually undo the buttons. Aiden was being tempted; by a pretty rich lady and for someone who had been longed starved of anything that related to romance, he was about to fall for it as the feel of her enticing body on his was igniting a fire in him. But this was wrong. This was his boss— well, his ex boss. And for all he knew, this could be a scheme. Who knew, maybe they were hidden cameras somewhere in the room. Aiden immediately halted her action, grabbing her arms and she was taken aback by the suddenness and his change in attitude. Aiden pushed her off him as gently as he could, he wouldn’t annoy her too much. He wished he could deny how good Katherine had made him feel in less than a minute, but his increased breathing and the swell in his jeans were a quick give away.He cleared his throat, beginning to button up “I’m sorry Katherine, I can’t do this. I can’t get married to you.”Katherine adjusted herself on the chair, dragging down her skirt. “Oh come on, Aiden. You don’t have to be so rigid. I’m offering this to you out of my own goodwill and on a platter of gold. The only thing you have to do is accept to marry me. And besides, why are you afraid of a little fun?” It seemed like Katherine didn’t get Aiden’s memo because now she had her hands caressing his cheeks.“I can’t Katherine.” Aiden answered, wondering why he was still here allowing her to caress his cheeks if he claimed so much that he didn’t want anything to do with her. She paused stroking his cheek and stared at Aiden deep in the eye.“You’re a handsome, good-looking man, Aiden, with lots of potential. And I see the good in you, unlike your wife. I find you attractive and I want you to marry me. Allow me help you, Aiden.” Katherine added, she resumed stroking Aiden’s cheek with a sweet smile on her face.“No, Katherine. I appreciate your kind gesture and thoughtfulness but this is all too much.” Aiden reasoned, removing her hands from his cheeks and summoning the courage to finally get up from the seat.Leaving her stunned, Aiden said, “I beg to take my leave now, Katherine. Thank you.”“Fine.” She also rose up from the seat and the smile vanished from her face, an annoyed scrunch taking over. She folded her arms, “Go then. Go it you want to.” She added angrily. Aiden nodded, He did want to. So he turned around and made his way to door. Aiden unlocked it and left Katherine’s office. Katherine chuckled, smirking to herself. This was only the beginning. He couldn’t escape from her.Deep down, she knew he would eventually come begging later. She wasn’t going to let him go so easily. No! She would never, not after Aiden was the sole key to unlocking all she had ever wanted in life! She going to get what she wanted from Aiden, and she was going to do whatever it took to ensure that Aiden was hers.Aiden returned back to the hospital, since he couldn’t return back to the Campbells Mansion, he decided to stay at the hospital until he’s able to pay for Hope’s treatment and then he would figure out life from there. Hope’s treatment. Yet again, Aiden had failed woefully at another attempt to raise money for the transplant. A part of subconsciousness rebuked him for refusing Katherine’s offer; she was sexy and rich so why not accept her offer, instead of clinging to a woman who despised him and his daughter. The logical part of his subconsciousness encouraged him, telling him that he had done the right thing by rejecting Katherine’s advances, her money and her marriage offer. It showed he was a man of principle. Aiden then contemplated what to do next and he paced around my lobby, pondering deep in thought. He needed to find a solution to this quickly and the only option he had was to try and phone some of his friends from college again. He really hoped they will help, it wasn’t
Aiden couldn’t believe his eyes. Off course this would happen when Lady Elizabeth decides to play matchmaker between a young and wealthy CEO and her materialistic and slutty granddaughter. It was bound to happen. And maybe it was what Lady Elizabeth was aiming for. Riley and the CEO pause their little show as they were immediately alerted by Aiden’s presence. Riley impulsively jumped off the CEO’s laps and tried to adjust herself; her shirt was completely unbuttoned, one of her boobs hanging out of her bra and she quickly tucked it back in and closed up. “What the hell are you doing here?” Riley shrieked. “Who is this man, Riley and why is he in my office?” The CEO questioned Riley as he also tried to adjust himself, he zipped up his trousers and began buttoning up his shirt as well. “I don’t know him Nathan, I swear!” Riley immediately denied Aiden point blank. Aiden was shocked, his jaw hanging as he tried to digest the scene in front of him. It had reached the point of Riley den
Riley was shocked, perplexed even and she gasped in confused puzzlement. Wasn’t it the same Aiden who was detained two days ago? How was he able to not only get out of jail, but to be engaged to Katherine Anderson? Riley wondered how he even knew Katherine Anderson in the first place. When did all of this happen? Right under her very nose too! “Grandmother! Grandmother! Come see!” Riley beckoned on Lady Elizabeth to come and see for herself, in fact the whole family could come even. Everyone needed to see it, to see the blatant news that Aiden was now engaged to a rich lawyer! “What is it Riley?” Lady Elizabeth questioned, coming down the stairs. “Grandmother, you won’t believe your eyes. Come see quickly.” Riley urged, her grandmother groaned, rolling her eyes— she hoped it wasn’t one of those handsome actors Riley loved drooling about, so much that she calls everyone to come look at how handsome they were anytime they show up on TV. Lady Elizabeth wasn’t in the mood for that, she
Aiden reasoned the offer Katherine had put on the table. Not only was she going take care of the medical bills, but she would also give him a whooping sum of 50,000,000 dollars as a betrothal gift and also pay for his bail. He didn’t want to stay in the cell any longer, it’s only been two days and he hated it. He wanted to get back to his daughter, and now that her health was assured and she’ll be swimming in a pile of wealth soon, Aiden had no choice than to accept. “I’m fine with the conditions Katherine. I accept your marriage proposal.” Aiden said and Katherine’s eyes immediately lit up in happiness. She was taken aback a bit quite frankly, she had expected Aiden to continue to prove stubborn and not accept. But he had surprised her! Her plan has been set in motion now and there was no going back. . . “Great Aiden, I’m glad you stopped acting so stubborn and made the right choice.” Katherine beamed with smiles, rising up from the chair. “I’ll go settle the policemen now and you’
Aiden is dumfound by the question. What the hell was Riley going on about? Blogs were carrying the news that he was engaged to Katherine Anderson? He had only partly agreed to her offer just an hour ago, how had the news started circulating round? “What do you mean, Riley? I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Aiden said, truthfully. Riley scoffed, “Of course you do. Don’t play dumb. This morning, the entertainment channel carried the news of you being engaged to Katherine!” Riley explained and Aiden furrowed his brows. It wasn’t making sense, the dots weren’t connecting. As at this morning, he hadn’t met with Katherine yet talk less of ultimately agreeing to her marriage offer. In fact, he was still hurdled up in his cell in the morning. So there was no possible way news would’ve gotten out by then that he was engaged to Katherine, unless… She forged the news herself! Such a cunny woman, Aiden wondered. How can Katherine go about spreading rumors like that without his consen
Katherine’s sleek limousine pulled over in front of the Campbell mansion at exactly 1pm— not one minute late. Aiden was glad that the house was empty, he wouldn’t be able to defend why a limousine had come to pick him up and there was already a matter on ground that he hadn’t settled yet. He entered into the sleek limousine and met with Katherine seated in the vehicle. She had straightened her blonde hair and tied it up in a ponytail and she was wearing a red mini frilly dress with matching coloured lipstick doused on her lips. Aiden couldn’t take his eyes away from how the dress rode up just enough to bare a fair amount of her thighs. Truly, she was a work of art. Apart from Katherine’s succulent thighs, he couldn’t help but admire Katherine’s exquisite taste in vehicles. This limo was amazing! Aiden couldn’t wait to have one of his own. Aiden and Katherine were only able to exchange pleasantries before Katherine received a business call and she was on it all through the drive ti
Aiden’s jaw was dropped. His tongue was tied and he had no idea of what to tell Riley. Apparently, someone— most likely thirsty news reporters, had taken a picture of Katherine and Aiden while they were in the restaurant. The person had struck gold by getting a nice shot of the moment Katherine had leaned over and kissed Aiden on his lips. And the picture is now circulating the Internet! Definitely confirming the previous news broadcast. And not only had Riley come across that photo, she had also seen Aiden alight from her limousine and she most likely must’ve seen Katherine lay a kiss on Aiden’s lips because the window had been wined down! Aiden sees that he had been busted and he couldn’t deny it any longer. He had to come clean at this point. “See Riley, I have something to tell you.” “Keep it to yourself, Aiden!” Riley spat angrily. “I don’t want to hear your bullshit lies. In fact, I’m tired of you and your nuisance. I want out!” Riley added, her voice was soaring heights. A
Kiera had always known her father was a complete asshole, but he had taken it a notch higher when he fixed his marriage to his mistress, Elaine, on the same day as his wife’s funeral. Kiera’s eyes had gone hollow from non–stop crying and had dark circles underneath. The day of the funeral unfortunately had to be the hottest day in July, yet Kiera chose to maintain her favorite type of outfit, pantsuits. A black pantsuit this time, so she could blend in. Her already grouched mood worsened after one of her aunts had scolded her for deeming it fit to wear a net camisole which bared a fair amount of cleavage to her own mother’s funeral. When it was time for Kiera to read her eulogy, she refused to allow any tears to be released unto her cheeks. But everyone else’s was the opposite; songs and hymns that were supposed to take three minutes extended to ten because of the interrupting lamentations and cries. Her mother was loved by all— except her asshole of a husband who was busy gettin
