“Be fast please, I'm famished, I don't have to remind you about that,” said Kate as she gestured toward the walked-in closet to take off her dress.Just as she entered the walk-in closet, she took off her clothes. And took her long and wide towel from the wardrobe hanger.Kate wrapped it above her chest and made sure that she was well covered before she walked out with a smirk on her face. Immediately she set eyes on Antonio's broad chest, she averted her gaze away. She couldn't allow her eyes to reach the down part of him because she wouldn't want to think about anything stupid at the moment.“Do you have any clothes you will wear after the shower?” Kate inquired with her gaze away from Antonio.“Sh*t!” he cursed. “ I have a pair of clothing in the car and I forgot to take them along with me.” he frowned after saying that.“Go and get it then,” she advised him. “ I would be waiting for you in the bathroom. Be fast, please,” she
“Bravo,” that was what echoed in his head.With fear, he scanned the room to see who said that, but to his greatest amazement, he saw no one.Alicia, who already stood on her feet and composed herself, was lost after noticing no one was with them in the lounge.At first, she thought that Kate had come into the room, that's why Antonio jumped away from her.Their minds were restless as they breathed heavily with fear. He now knew that his guilty conscience was judging him, which might become reality one day if he didn't stop it.“What is it?” Alicia anxiously asked as she could see the fear written all over Antonio's face. “Gosh!” Antonio muttered through gritted teeth as he clasped his palms against his face. Alicia slowly lifted her hand and touched Antonio on the shoulder, but he threw it away and yelled at her. “ Stay away from me!”Immediately he said that, Alicia winced inside and quickly stepped away from Antonio.He angrily clenched his fist as if he wanted to punch her face
A few days later, Sharon was discharged from the hospital after being treated and was presently strong and healthy.Mr. Charles says nothing about the debt Sharon collected from the celestial finance company because he told Sharon's secretary to inform the celestial finance company about Sharon's condition.The reason was that Mr. Charles wanted to confirm with Sharon if it was true that she lent money from the company.On getting home and being certain about Sharon's health, Sharon's parents decided to break the news to her.But before they could do that, they had to give Catherine and her Mom a farewell.“Forgive me, Mom. I know what I did was wrong. It's just that I couldn't bear seeing Aidan flirting with his ex-wife. I was avoiding being an obstruction to him.” Sharon apologized to Mrs. Frederick with a sincere expression.The two families were sitting in the lounge like one big extended family that was having a family meeting.Mrs. Frederick and Catherine were sitting on one of
Nonetheless, there was a bit of truthfulness in Mrs. Lucinda's words. She left Aidan at the time he truly needed her. And now that she was in need, she wanted to seek help from him.For what reason?“I thought you were wise, Sharon. How do you think the young man will feel if he sees you?” her father jumped into the conversation.“Mom, Dad, you all should know that it wasn't my fault. He was cheating on me, and I wasn't. I wish I could do away with how I felt that day, but I couldn't. The pain was too much for me to bear. I have said this thing countless times, and you are meant to understand what I'm talking about.” said Sharon with a frown face. “My whole life was dedicated to him, because of how much I love him. If I don't love him, then what made you think I tried to end my life? I couldn't just stay with the pain in my heart, it was silently killing me.” she added.“Alright, then you can go ahead and meet him. Let's hear what he had to say because the celestials are threatening
The next morning, Sharon left home by 8 AM to meet Aidan at home, as she was certain that he must be at home presently. However, if he isn't, then she would have to follow him to the office to plead for mercy.That same morning, she called Aidan's phone, but it was switched off, leaving her wondering if Aidan blocked her contact or something. She was certain that his phone couldn't be switched off just like that.As soon as she got to the gate of Aidan's house, she was stopped by the gatekeeper as he went to his boss's Mom to ask if she was expecting a visitor.The gatekeeper bowed down to Mrs. Frederick, who was having breakfast with her daughter at the dining table.“Good morning, madam. There is a visitor at the gate,” he announced.“And who could that be?” Mrs. Frederick fearfully asked because of the call they received the previous day, which they were yet to tell the guards. “ Catherine, are you expecting anyone?”With fear
Wayne could be seen sitting on one of the chairs in Mr. Donald's office after delivering the letter that was given to him by Mrs. Frederick.“I'm not getting what you are saying, Mr. Donald,” said Wayne as he seemed lost by what Mr. Donald said.“What I'm saying is nothing but the truth. Kate resigned a day after she and the CEO came back from their trip. I tried to reach out to the CEO, but his line wasn't going through. Her boyfriend threatened to shoot me if I didn't pay the money. I was left with no choice but to pay her because there were only two days for the month to end.” Mr. Donald explained.“Why didn't you inform me?” Wayne angrily inquired. “Apart from the CEO, I don't have anybody's contact, not even his Mom. Not only that, I have never been to his house, or else, I would have come by myself.” Anger took over Wayne. He furiously clenched his fist as though he were going to punch someone.“This proves that this lady
Knowing that Aidan's news had gone viral on social media left everyone with sadness because that was the highest point of humiliation someone like Aidan can ever receive.However, there was nothing they could do to get news deleted on every platform. Even though they can do that, there was no way they could erase it from the hearts of people who had read the news.Mrs. Frederick said to the young man,“ Don't believe everything you see on the internet because most of the news is gotten from fake sources who don't know how the situation started or how it goes. Take this money to repair your car, and please do not address us as the family of a murderer. That's bad of you. It's unacceptable. I'm sure I made myself clear.”“Yes, ma'am,” the young man nodded and sought mercy,“ Pardon my manners. I was enraged, which led to me saying that, but I never meant to say it. Forgive me.”“It's okay. All I need from you now is that you should try to inform your
Sharon was desperate for this cup to pass over her. It was shameful for someone like her to go through such a condition.Without delay, she gathered all her workers in the conference room to address the current situation.“I must apologize for calling this urgent meeting, but it has to be if we want to achieve our aim.” Sharon began. “ I believe everyone here has heard of what is going on in the company, unless you haven't been punctual in your office. But before I go further, I would like to ask both the manager and the secretary about the contracts they have sent out to our partners. It's time for you to speak, please.” She informed them before taking her seat.The secretary and the manager exchanged a few words before Lucy stood up to speak.“I greet the CEO and welcome all my colleagues to this urgent meeting. If we examine everything that is happening in the company these days, we can easily tell what is happening without being told. Thankfully, the company manager and I were a
