Davidson’s brows furrowed as he watched Sasha manage to fit herself underneath the ceramic table they had their drinks on. His stern face brimmed with confusion and embarrassment as he frowned at her.“You’re embarrassing me, girl! What are you even doing?” He asked her angrily but in a low tone.“Stop looking in my direction…he mustn’t see me with you guys,” Sasha stated through her gritted teeth, her demeanor filled with tension.While Donald was still trying to steal a better view of Sasha, who had curled up beneath the table, Stanley’s voice immediately broke through the tension. “Guys! Look.” He called out to Davidson and Donald, turning their attention to himself.“Why is this nincompoop here?!” Stanley frowned and adjusted his sleeves. His statement made Davidson and Donald shift their gaze from him and it landed on a masculine figure who was almost at their table.Davidson immediately coded when he spotted Sebastian, he smiled proudly when he finally realized Sasha’s move w
Sebastian arched his brows, he wasn't entirely shocked about how low Donald could go. What else could one expect from a desperado, who craved all the attention in the world?Sebastian’s demeanor was rather too calm and composed for being accused of theft. He leaned his back towards the table Sasha was hiding, crossed his arms, and waited nonchalantly for the security personnel to arrive. The Lounge’s security-armed men came rushing down after hearing Donald’s loud voice, “Where… where is the thief!? Where are they?” They asked hurriedly, their eyes lurking around carefully while they reached out for their gun in the gun pouch hung at the corner of their waist. “Everyone keep your heads down!!!” They uttered loudly in a squatted position, trying to maintain professionalism. But everyone kept looking at them like some sort of fool.“Remain calm everyone and stay down!” The security ordered again before turning to Donald who had blown the alarm some minutes ago.“Where is the thief, s
The look on the security personnel's face who had just searched Sebastian turned into anger mixed with a tiny bit of respect so he didn’t appear too disrespectful.He gritted his teeth with a frown before he slowly revealed the rusty wallet he had brought out of Sebastian’s pocket.“I didn’t find any ring on him, you accused this customer wrongly and you owe him an apology.” The security personnel stated firmly even though his eyes twinkled with impatient.“It was a false alarm!” He stated openly to everyone’s hearing.The amount of shock that fell on Donald’s face was enough to make a baby wail. He charged up, different thoughts reeling through his mind as he suddenly became sweaty.“Where did my 200k ring go?!” He muttered to himself in confusion and agony. He walked towards Sebastian in anger, he was about to forcefully fit his hands into Sebastian’s pockets before one of the security men stopped him. “Sir! You have to maintain decorum, nothing was found on him!” He said the secon
Sasha returned his smirk with a warm smile, but for Sasha, nothing goes for nothing. “Tell me, babe. What’s my game in this and how much is my pay?” She responded.“Money isn’t the problem love, I just need to run for this second tenure and I promise to flaunt you around the institute, and travel with you during inter-school events. You, Sasha, would be my First Lady!” Davidson stated with a serious face, even though his lies and deceit were as dark as his heart.Sasha knew very well not to trust his words, she was smart enough to see through his lies and could never give up her pay simply because of a tour she wasn’t sure of. She arched her brows and looked deep into Davidson’s eyes before uttering for the second time. “How much is my pay, put love aside, honey, this is business!” Her words sent shivers down his spine and he muttered the ‘B’ word with so much annoyance in his eyes.“Every girl would die for this offer….” He sighed and stopped there. “What is your quotation?”“20k
“Holy shitttt, whatttttt??!” Steve exclaimed after his eyes caught the live location Sebastian had just shared with him.“Why are you shouting, babe? Keep it low, I’m trying to get my makeup done.” Sasha rolled her eyes before going ahead to apply her makeup.“Look, baby…” Steve’s tone was laced with urgency when he passed his phone to Sasha who had a straight face on.“No freaking way!!” She quickly snatched the phone from Steve’s hands and got up swiftly, her eyes widened with shock and disbelief. “The Ace Skyscraper?” She asked with a fully dilated pupil as she kept ogling at the phone.“Who invited you, your dad? Who?” She asked with furrowed brows. “Please, I must go with you babe, please.” She folded her hands as she pleaded.“Nahhh… not my parents, but Seb,” Steve replied.“What do you mean, Seb?” Sasha asked in disbelief.“Yes, baby.”“I must go with you, babe.” Sasha continued regardless. “That’s fine, but I will have to tell Seb you’re coming along….”“No no no no!! You kn
While Seb and Steve walked towards the terrace, Steve had a wave of satisfaction and positive drive on his face seeing Sasha so happy. He was now driven to work very hard to give her the finest things in life.“See how happy and cute she looks, luxury suits my Angel for real!” Steve said to Sebastian, his droopy eyes fixed on Sasha through the transparent glass that demarcated the terrace from the apartment.Sebastian looked at Steve and shook his head. He knew exactly what Steve was going through, he felt that way about Marilyn until he learned the hardest way.However, seeing Steve so happy and in love, he didn’t know how to break the news about Sasha being in a relationship with Davidson anymore. Mr Jones had told him on the phone how Sasha often hung around the restaurant with Davidson almost all the time. Hence the reason why he warned him about the enemy within.Steve was very fragile and finding out about Sasha would break him to pieces, However, now wasn’t the best time to op
Sasha stared deep into thin air, cracking her brain on what excuse to give Steve about her sudden movement away from Ace. Undiluted pain brimmed through her eyes, she had planned on spending the night here at the apartment. Who knows when next such a great opportunity will come by again?“Now what lie do I tell this crybaby?” She muttered to herself as she drank up the remaining content in her champagne glass. She picked up her handbag and readjusted her dress before stepping out to meet Steve and Seb.“Wow… outside is even fancier in my own opinion.” She uttered loudly, her face laced with astonishment mixed with bitterness. “This meeting better be worth it!” She mumbled under her breath.Steve’s brows furrowed when he saw her coming out of the apartment in her full outfit, he immediately sensed she was about to go away.He stood up quickly to meet her, with confusion glistening in his eyes, “Baby, going somewhere?” He asked, caressing her hair in love. The more he caressed her hai
THE MANIFESTOIt was the morning of the long-awaited day in St Psalms Institute, it was an outdoor setting since the weather was bright and a bit cocosyStudents were already seated in their chairs chanting the school's love anthem, entertaining themselves before the real deal. The candidates for the election should be prepared to buy the hearts of the students through their well-prepared/detailed speeches.
