After Adrian was through checking out the suit for the event tonight with Aunt Emma satisfied about its outcome, she finally let him leave but not without making him promise that he would be at the event on time. Avery was seeing him off to his car, their movement was slow, and yet their steps were precise, each time that she was with him, although he did not show much attention to her except for the holy light, and yet she was just happy to be with him.“So you also came here to try out some dresses or is this just a women's thing?” Adrian asked as they both stood before his car.“Aunt Emma is my friend and so are her workers. I came to try out the dress that I will be wearing for the event tonight and also do some catching up with the girls there until Aunt Emma came in”“I see, she likes you a lot”“Same with you, which can only say that we have a lot in common” Avery teased and let the pretty smile curl up her lips each time she did that, he was always fascinated by her beauty.“
Mrs Smith arrived at the fashion runway show dressed in a very elegant dress. The company was finally doing well, more impressive than they had expected, especially after Mr. Smith encountered the sanctuary.She was dressed in a golden sequin gown that was screaming luxury, the dress flowed through the floor while she carefully walked in with her hands firmly clutching onto her purse, her makeup was perfectly done and this time, Mrs. Smith made certain that the jewelry were all authentic, that way she did not have to get intimidated by those rich elites again.“Your invite please!” The huge bouncer at the entrance asked and at that moment, she recalled that she had totally forgotten all about that.Mrs. Smith had not been invited to the runway show but after she heard the elites at the Club talking about it the second time that she visited the Club, Eleanor did not think for a second about how she was going to go in there, all she was interested about at the time that she heard the ne
Freya hurriedly found herself a seat where she immediately grabbed a glass of champagne, her eyes staring at the beautiful view around. The runway was yet to start and most of the guests were so busy mingling with each other, Freya on the other hand had a client she was hoping would show up but since he wasn't here yet, she decided to relax and watch the beautiful view.“I can't believe that fate is indeed on my side” a deep male voice standing behind Freya expressed, she swirled her head in his direction and was surprised to see that it was the same man she had met at the supermarket earlier today.“Jason?” she called out and as soon as she did, she regretted it because he could see that she remembered his name.“Yes. It is me in the flesh, from the way you recalled my name, looks like I have not been the only one doing all the thinking right?”“I did not remember your name because I was thinking about you, I am a statistic manager and I am always faced with remembering all the numbe
The smile on Avery's face faded at the sight of Seth. Freya knew that this was not a discussion that she wanted to be around, so she quickly got on her feet.“I will see you later Avery, there are some clients that I would like to say hello to!” She winches an eye at Avery and hurries away from the table while Seth immediately occupies the seat that she was previously seated in. “Avery Hi!”“Seth, I had no idea that you were invited to this party”“The Maxton group is the biggest investor of her brand, there is no way that we wouldn't be invited!” He bragged and that was a part of him that she had totally forgotten all about.“I see… you can enjoy the party, I still have a few friends that I need to mingle with” She tried to get on her feet, but his hands immediately grabbed her by her arms, his eyes tender with sympathy.“Listen to me, Avery i know that I messed up pretty badly, but please am I that bad that you can no longer stand the sight of me?”“Why won't I be able to stand the
Jason was at the show, and even while it seemed like he was there for the show, his eyes were fixed on Avery and Adrian when a message immediately came through his phone. He briefly glanced at the screen of his phone before calmly hurrying outside the hall so that everyone was engrossed in the show and no one would even notice that he was gone.In a red Porsche car, Kelvin was seated at the driver's side of the car. He was just about to leave after work when Eva informed him about the contract with the Maxton group that Daniel was trying so hard for his son to get hoping that it was going to get his son more scores around the board.He immediately left the office and with his telepathic skills, Kelvin could tell just where Jason was at the moment so he drove right to the runway venue when he arrived there, he remained inside the car and texted Jaso, because the last thing that he wanted was bumping into Adrian or his sister.It did not take long for Jason to arrive there, he opened th
Emma could not attend to all the guests who were so eager to speak to her after the show. Adrian who stood next to her was getting impatient and decided to speak.“Aunt Emma, looks like you still have a lot of guests that you need to attend to?”“Yes, dear. And I am so sorry about that. I have been away from town for such a long time that everyone was so impressed with the designs. I am happy about it but I don't know when I will be done attending to them”“I understand Aunt, do you need me to wait for you?”“Yes dear, you are the only one that I want to drop me off at home. You are the only one that I can trust to protect me, especially from competitors that might not be too happy with my come back”“You have nothing to worry about, I totally understand. I will just be in my car and I will come to check on you from time to time, is that alright”“That is better!” She felt relief as she watched him leave and now she could speak to potential investors who might be interested in investi
The light had filled the car, consuming them both. Adrian had not felt anything like this before and was enjoying every ounce of the power and how powerful it made him feel, but he was suddenly interrupted by a knock on the door of the car and as he finally pulled away with the light slowly diminishing, he realizes that it was Aunt Emma and he had totally forgotten about checking up on her.But just when Adrian was about to unlock the car from Avery’s ray, his eyes met with hers, and what he saw made his heart beat so fast that he thought that his heart was going to jump out of his chest.Avery’s eyes were still shut, her head was bleeding and so was her nose, fear took hold of him while he called out to her.“Avery! AVERY!” he yelled out, but there was no response from her.“Adrian open up, what is going on here?” Aunt Emma who was getting impatient from standing outside all this while called out, but he was in a state of confusion and did not know what to do nor did he know how he w
Adrian did not realize how exhausted he was until he was alone with Avery and after staring at her for a while, he fell asleep. He was woken by the sound of a groaning next to him and when he opened his eyes, it was Avery who had her eyes opened and from the look of things, he could tell that she was in pain.“Adrian…. Where am i?”“Avery, you are in the hospital, thank God that you are finally awake. I was so worried that something might have happened to you”“My head hurts so badly, what happened?” she asked and that seemed to be a question he wasn't sure how to respond to. Adrian pulled closer to her as he held her hands.“I am sorry Avery, i never thought that connecting to you that deeply was going to have a reverse effect on you”“Is that why you look like someone who has just been hit by a train, you do not have to feel guilty about anything because it was also my fault”“Avery how can you say this, tell me how is any of these your fault?”“I wanted you to go ahead with it in t
