The family gathered around the dining table and closed their eyes to say their prayers before eating. Matthew had left them after departing from Taylor's house to drop off the papers at court for his client, Andi, and rushed back just in time to join them for dinner. Ever since he arrived, Mrs Emerson had been nothing but sweet to him. She had prepared the meals herself when Andi told her he was coming even though her son refused she did anything at all. Having just returned from the hospital. Mrs Emerson was always a good cook, she dreamt of her own restaurant but gave up that dream to support her husband with his company. Andi rarely ate the things at home save for cereals and fruits. He never cooked except to fry an egg and prepare some toast. So it felt so nice having his mother around again and eating her delicious handmade meal. “This is still as delicious as the first time I had it.” Matthew said with a gentle smile on his face. Mrs Emerson's lips spread into a pleased smi
Andi sat up in his bed feeling as refreshed as he looked. He turned off his alarm clock and climbed down from his bed. Standing in front of his window, he pulled the blinds apart to allow proper sunlight to seep in. The air smelt fresh and it felt ever so nice as it caressed his skin.A morning couldn't be any more beautiful than that. The night had been the best night he had ever had in the past three years. A night that would have never existed if it wasn't for Lucy. Speaking of Lucy, she was coming over that day to help him do some research about his dad as well as work relating to the company. His mother was leaving for her check up and the woman was very stubborn about going on her own. She felt so strong like she could lift the entire house on her shoulder without even breaking a sweat and Andi was pleased, over joyed even, that she was feeling so well again but still…He went to the shower and had his bath. Coming out of the bathroom, a small towel hung around his waist and
Breakfast had ended quickly after Mrs Emerson excused herself from the table. Lucy ate without asking any questions or bothering to strike a conversation with him. Like she had said, she didn't eat the night before and she was hungry. Andi couldn't deny it, he loved how honest she always was with him. It had only been three days with this woman and it felt like he had loved her since forever. Lucy raised herself from her seat and packed up the dishes. Though Andi refused, she insisted on doing them. As she rolled up her sleeve, he saw a golden chain around her wrist just like her necklace. Her earrings were just as golden except they were round big balls. “I'm heading out okay?” Mrs Emerson announced. “Don't leave him alone until I return okay?” She said to Lucy who smiled in response. The woman had changed drastically in her light pink collared dress that had square pockets just below the waistline and two golden buttons sat atop them. Her hair was packed behind with a black ban
After a while of screams, moans and satisfactory orgasm, they both decided on resting in his bedroom. After all, their work wasn't going anywhere. Lucy was completely naked under the sheets, her clothes lay scattered on the floor along with his. He too was naked, save for his underwear. She laid with her back pressed against his body and he played with her hair. “You said you wanted to get married quickly, did you mean that?” Andi asked, still paying with her nourished hair. She smiled. “Don't you want to get married? Or is something holding you back?” She turned to face him with an abruptness. “Did your mom say no because we have been acquainted for long?”“What? No, that's absurd. My mom always supports my decisions. She says she wouldn't mind it if we decided to get married quickly away from the cameras and honestly, I don't either.” He explained. She smiled, feeling relaxed but her smile soon faded. A sigh left her mouth. “I wish my mom was as supportive and understanding as
Sitting at the table, Andi and Lucy stared at the phone that laid in front of them. Ever since the mysterious message entered, the phone remained black without the screen turning on with a notification. Andi had messaged the number, asking what he meant by the message but got no reply. It had been well over thirty minutes now. He sighed. “Will he ever reply?” His brow arched subconsciously as he asked. Lucy heaved a sigh. “I don't know.” She replied, shaking her head. He stared at his wristwatch for like the tenth time. “It's almost forty minutes now and still no reply. How am I even supposed to follow his rules to play the game if he won't respond to my messages?” He sighed and relaxed into his seat. Lucy tilted her head to the side, her eyes fixed on the blank screen. “Maybe you answered wrongly.” He looked up at her. “What do you mean by that?” She picked up the phone, “can you open this?” She stretched it forward towards him. “The password is my mother's name.” He said as
Andi took out a black suit shirt and threw it over himself. He was dressed in a nice sleek suit and his hair was neatly combed and styled. His mother had insisted on doing that herself. She also insisted on following him to the court as well. He didn't have any problem with that though. She was as beautiful as she had ever been. She purposely dressed extravagantly to attend the court and Andi knew that even though she was denying it. “Your collar is a little crooked, here let me fix it.” She said as she walked into his room. Her heels made noises as they kissed the floor, its silver glittered like magic dust. She was putting on a suit herself, a clean white trouser and shirt. A glittery silver singlet peeked out at the top of the shirt and a silver purse hung down from her shoulder. Her hair was let loose over her back and tucked neatly behind her ears and her face was decorated with full make-up. Her earrings, rings and bracelets were all a shining silver as well. “You're lookin
Taylor stood at the entrance of the court staring repeatedly at her wristwatch to keep track of the time. She grunted yet again after checking the time for the twelfth time. Her white heels hit the ground as she stomped. She was putting on a white long sleeved mini dress and her hair was left to fall down her shoulders. “Where is that idiot?!” She spat out angrily. “It has been over forty minutes, are you sure he is coming?” Mable's brow arched as she asked. Taylor glared daggers at her without giving her a response. It wasn't the first time she was doing that either. Any time Mable asked her a question, she would just glare at her. She had told herself she would give her sister the silent treatment until she knew what exactly she wanted to achieve. Mable didn't understand why she was getting death stares instead of a response. She sighed with a roll of her eyes before turning away and walking back towards their car. A Lamborghini that Taylor recognized pulled into the parking s
Taylor swallowed hard. Her chest rose and fell abnormally and she wished the ground would just open up already and swallow her up. Thankfully, Andi interfered. He held his mother's hand and gave her a warm smile. “Mom, please calm down. They are not worth any of your effort.” Taylor frowned. She was grateful for his interference but it made her angry that he condemned her family. “What do you mean we are not worth it?” She angrily questioned with a deep scowl on her face. “Did you come here to have a conversation?” Andi's voice was stern as he questioned. “What?” She confusedly asked. “I didn't come here to try to iron anything out and have sweet and savory conversations with anyone. If that's what you came here for then you had better forget it. Can we just go in and get this divorce over with?” She opened her mouth to speak but Andi held his mother's hand and led her into the court room. Lucy didn't even act like any of them were visible. She just walked straight in without u
