After Cephas dropped the call with his sister, he locked his black baby and went into the office building. It was a Saturday and of course Tyla was in the office just like he assumed.

She was a very hardworking woman and boss that never pushed her duties to her subordinates. He opened her office and she looked at him.

“Cephas,” She called surprisingly and she got up from seat then she walked up to him. “Are you okay?”

She pulled him in for a hug. “I saw your face during the wedding when your supposed bride said she was in love with someone else.”

“I am fine, Tyla,” He replied to her awkwardly and pulled away from the hug.

He had not expected to receive a warm embrace from her, even as he stood some meters away from her, her strawberry scent was still strong like she was still in his arms.

Once again, he thanked God and his stars for not letting him get trapped with someone he didn’t like.

Now he was going to focus on growing his love with Tyla.

Do you have an appointment?” She asked, maintaining her professionalism. All the members of Walter Corporation staff had been trained to retain their professional form at all times with guests and customers.“I am Violet Marcus and I don’t have an appointment yet, can I make one?” She asked impatiently .”Please make it as soon as you can, It is really urgent.”The receptionist finally looked up from her computer. “I see you have been blacklisted from all our companies and our sub companies as well.

    Tyla had woken up by the time he got to the front of the ward, he knocked on the door before entering. “Come in.” Her tired voice said. He got in after receiving her permission, she pulled up her hospital gown as he came in. She was inspecting the bruises on her body. “Hello, Cephas.” He moved close to her, “Are you okay, Tyla? Does your body ache?” He asked concernedly. “It does ache but I will be fine.,” She said with a smile on her face, “Can you help tie my gown, it loosened when I was trying to check my bruises out.” “Sure, sure.” He went to her back and picked up the ropes to quickly tie the gown, coving her Milk like skin.

    “Arrgh,” Abraham growled, rolling his eyes from the sensation he was feeling from his dick. He struggled to keep his grip on Violet’s hair while she bopped her mouth up on and down on his dick without taking a break.“I am close,” he managed to say, shutting his eyes tight, feeling like his internal organs were going to explode at any minute. Violet heard him celery but she continued to move at a faster pace while she cupped his sensitive balls in her hands, stimulating every nerve in his scrotum. “Fuckkkkkkkk.” he yelled as he emptied every content in his sac bag in her mouth. His doorbell went off right after.He didn’t respond but rather watched Violet swallow every trail of his cum like she was determined to not have any waste. Abraham smirked at her little act of service, even his greatest sex bussy, Leah Gojo, was an amateur compared to Violet who is like a pro at it.

    Hannah walked towards her best friend Violet and tapped her on the shoulder. “What’s good? Did you wait so long?” She pulled in for a hug and gave her a light push away from her so they could talk.“No, I just got here. I was pretty hooked up on something when you called so I didn’t come immediately.” Violet replied, reminiscing the mind-blowing sex she had with Abraham before she came to the grocery store.“Your mom’s stuff right? Have you been able to get somewhere, I have spoken to Kade about it and he has been so unresponsive about it. Besides, you haven’t been home in a while. Are you mad at him?”“No, I am not. Don’t bother Kade about the assistance anymore. I have figured it out and everything should be figured out soon as possible.” Violet responded with confidence. The sex with Abrham and his reaction after made her so sure that he was going to offer them some help.“How did you find a solution?
