Tiana looked at the building as she came out and was determined more than ever in her decision-making.She knew what her father said was right about her not making any rash decisions after the finding between Felix and Myra.She would have to be careful about this.She exhaled softly and went close to her car.The driver came out and was about to open the door for her to enter when she stopped him.“The keys “ she requested with a serious face.The driver was surprised as he knew she would only ask this of him if she was in a bad mood.And mostly it’s either she gets into an accident or leaves the house making her father worried about her whereabouts.“Miss Tiana “ he called out and was about to explain things to her when she gave him an annoyed look that shows he was getting on her nerves.He knew when to stop talking and give her what she was requesting.“The keys, “ she said again and stretched her hands for him to give her what she was asking for.He had no other option than to gi

Tiana drove to the restaurant and sat down waiting for her there.She didn’t look sad or dejected like how she looked when’s he first saw the video of them together.Myra entered and saw as she was calmly seating there with no worry on her face.“Good day, Miss Tiana,” Myra said and sat down.Tiana nodded her head and just looked at her.Myra is indeed a beauty, she didn’t surprise Felix is so smitten by her. She had a nice figure and a very cute face.But she didn’t go to let this home wrecker destroy her home even before it starts.“What would like to have, “ Tiana said like a polite host and called for the waiter into the VIP room.“Anything is okay, “ Myra said as she was feeling a little unease inward.Tiana nodded and said to the waiter to bring two signature dishes.He nodded and went to get it.“So how have you been, “ Tiana asked as she poured her a glass of champagne.“ I have been okay and I still am” she replied and looked at the glass of champagne and was hesitant to take

Tiana’s words made Myra a bit fearful of her after what she said.She has always known her to be a calm person and has never seen this side of her before.It was scary and very embarrassing.Tiana angrily threw her hands away making her stumble back a little.She sat down and took the champagne and drank down everything in it.“Well sit down or you have lost your appetite,” Tiana said in a mocking tone.She took her cutlery and started to eat her lunch.After the first bite, she saw Myra was still standing there, having no intention of sitting down.“Well, it’s better you know when you are not needed. This Lunch is on me and as a slut always looking for ways to make easy money. Today is your lucky day. After taking away my husband, I am also buying you an expensive lunch. It seems you have really up your game “ she said making Myra so angry that she angrily took her bag and left the room.She got out of the restaurant and the tears she have been trying to keep were now falling like ra

He knew without asking something might have happened while she went out for lunch.She wasn’t at her usual place for lunch when he asked her her colleague. She might have encountered someone who might have made her this angry.“Myra, what is the problem, “ he said as he was about to take her hands and comfort her, but she threw his hand away in anger.“What is wrong with you, “ she asked angrily as he pointed her finger at the him.Felix was confused. He wondered what was going on.“Myra if there is something that is making like this , you can just talk to me about it. You shouldn’t be this angry “ he said as he tried to call her down.“This is what I dislike about you. You think everything should be about you. And you can just make everything work” she saidHe was wondering where this was leading.“Well sorry, you can’t “ said with defea

As he was feeling happy about how he knew Felix wouldn’t be able to do anything to him, he saw a smile on Felix’s face“Take him to the room downstairs. I will be there soon.” Felix said with a smile to his assistant.Victor became a little fearful when he said this.He never thought he would take him anywhere else apart from here.“Where are you taking me? I want to talk to you here “ Victor argued.But it was like he was talking to an empty room.His assistant who looked like a harmless person changed into a fearful person all of a sudden.He carried him and soon they were out of the room.Victor tried to get off him but he couldn’t.Felix casually removed his watch and placed it on his table and massage his muscles and neck.“Seems I’m going to have a good time this afternoon,” he said with a smile and left the room.Victor was fearful for he thought he would be able to seen by some of the workers in the company on the way and might ask for help from them.But he was disappointed

I knew you might be in thought again” he replied with respect as he poured him some of the tea and handed it to him.“Thank you, “ he said and took a sip of it.After finding the taste to be his usual familiar favorite he placed it down a bit and become worried again.The butler thought and decided to ask him about it.“What is it master,” he asked with concern on his face.H

He can not even take care of his wife how can he take care of his children in the future then?He was a very terrible person.And to think he was about to tell her the he was going to leave her.This would even kill her faster than the sickness itself.He went and held her hand with worry and shock on his face.“How come. How long have you known this and how is it that I was never told about this “ he asked all a once and he couldn't believe she was going to die.“I felt dizzy this afternoon after I went out and fainted. I was taken to the hospital where the doctor gave me this shocking news. I even thought he was going to admit me there but he said that wouldn’t be necessary.

Kincaid had just finished with Shine and was walking back to the hotel. He walked towards the elevator and saw a figure he knew very well standing inside. After giving a nod, he entered the elevator and the person did the same. He pressed his floor button and stood there quietly."It's very nice to see you again. Coming back from the bat, I suppose?" Alec asked with a smile.Kim didn't even look at him but smiled as he replied, "Yeah."Alec nodded his head and continued, "Guess your night has been quite eventful. I saw you hitting it off with Maria earlier today. And believe me, she might feel the same."Kim didn't rush to reply or look at him, instead choosing to remain quiet.He felt that Alec often had one interest in mind but always tried to find something to pin on others, and that's exactly what he was doing right now."It's surprising that you, venturing into public political business and being the president and heir to the Crowns family empire, are so interested in other pe

Kincaid walked into his suite and immediately sensed that something was off. With an alert look, he didn't even turn on the lights in the room before he sensed a hand about to attack him. He swiftly dodged to the side and prepared to counterattack.The person attacking him seemed surprised, not expecting him to counter with such strength. Kincaid quickly grabbed the person's hand and swiftly threw them overboard."Ouch," the person groaned in pain as he lay on the floor."Is it over already? I was hoping for more. This is so boring," Jayden's voice echoed in the darkness.Kincaid calmly walked to the switch and turned on the lights, revealing Cole lying on the floor."What are both of you still doing here? I thought you guys might be in your room by now," Kincaid asked, crossing both his hands on his chest."Can you be less serious next time? I may look like a young man, but I'm old in spirit. Have some mercy," Cole said as he struggled to stand up.Kincaid casually glanced at him an

Kincaid walked away into his closet to get something to put on."You can leave the same way you came if there is nothing else. I need to get my beauty sleep as I have some work tomorrow," he said.With that, she felt a surge of pain in her heart and didn't know how to react to this."And I guess it's with Maira, right? You guys have become really close in this short time. Very interesting," Shine said.Kincaid, who had already put on some pants and was about to put on a shirt, smiled."And how is that any of your business? Last I remember, you allowed your friend into your house and even went to the club with him. You can do whatever you want with your life, and I can't do the same? Interesting."Shine was beyond herself in rage. She walked towards the window, about to leave the same way she came, without bothering to answer when he spoke."Oh, and also, I think we've done enough with this fake relationship. I think it's time we let go of this charade so we can both do whatever we wan

The next day, Kincaid arrived at the Pierre mansion, his eyes filled with admiration as he took in the grandeur of the estate. “I'm already there, don't worry I will be with you soon okay” he said with a tender smile .“You sure? I don't want that Maria cockroach to punch on you as soon as you arrive there, "Shine said with gritted teeth. “I knew I to follow you there” “You are cute,” he said and that was enough to shut her up.He couldn't see her but he could sense that she was blusing.“Okay I will coke right to you after this meeting okay” he said and before he could say something else, she hung up.He smiled widely but it soon disappeared when he git down from his car. The mansion stood majestically amidst sprawling gardens, its architecture exuding a timeless elegance. The air was filled with the fragrance of blooming flowers, and the sound of chirping birds added a serene melody to the surroundings.A butler, impeccably dressed in a formal suit, stepped forward to greet Kin

As the lingering silence filled the room, Mr. Pierre shifted gears smoothly, changing the subject to business matters. "Now, let's talk about the collaboration for the new hotel project. I've heard remarkable things about your management skills, Kincaid, and I believe your expertise will be invaluable in this endeavor."Kincaid nodded, appreciating the shift in conversation. "Thank you, Mr. Pierre. I've had successful experiences with hotel projects in the past, and I'm eager to explore this opportunity further. With your support and resources, we can create something truly extraordinary."Over the next couple of hours, Kincaid and Mr. Pierre delved into the details of the new hotel venture. They discussed location possibilities, design concepts, target demographics, and potential challenges they might face.

After Kincaid left, the warm glow of the evening sun painted the mansion's walls in shades of gold. Mr. Pierre and Maria found themselves sitting in the elegant living room, a gentle breeze rustling the curtains.Mr. Pierre studied his granddaughter's face, noticing the wistful look in her eyes. "Maria, my dear, what are you hoping for with Kincaid?" he asked gently.Maria's calm façade vanished into thin air, replaced by a flicker of arrogance. "Well, Grandfather," she began, "I might not know exactly what I'm hoping for, but there's something about Kincaid that intrigues me. He doesn't appear to be someone who's interested in me, but I can't help but feel drawn to him."Mr. Pierre smiled knowingly, reaching out to hold Maria's hands warmly. "My dearest girl, the heart can be a complex thing. It may not always align with what our eyes see. Kincaid is a remarkable man, and I understand why you find him intriguing. If there's something you desire, I support you wholeheartedly."Maria's

“This feels like heaven”Shine walked into the glamourous mall, its rich decorations and luxurious stores making her feel like she had stepped into a world of glamour and extravagance. The marble floors reflected the shimmering lights of chandeliers hanging from the high ceilings, and the sound of soft music filled the air, adding to the aura of luxury.Cole followed her closely, carrying a plethora of shopping bags from their previous mall visits. “This… This is like the third mall already”. He seemed a bit overwhelmed and exhausted, but Shine was in high spirits. This was the third mall they had visited that day, and she didn't seem worried about the time or money spent. “Cole hurries we need to get more,” she said and run away excitedly, looking nothing like the cold detective Shine. For her, it was the first time she could indulge in something purely for her pleasure, free from work-related stress and responsibilities.Her eyes sparkled like a child in a candy shop as she sca

Shine felt a mix of surprise and embarrassment as she found herself held in an intimate position by Alec. “Ermm, thank you”She quickly tried to pull herself away from him, putting on an angry and disgusted look.Cole, who had placed the shopping bags away, hurriedly stood before Shine protectively, his fists clenched. "Stay away from her! She's my boss, Kincaid's woman," Cole warned Alec with a fierce glare.Alec smirked, raising his hands in a mock surrender. "No need to act alarmed, my friend. I come in peace," he said, his voice oozing with charm. "I never said I'm interested in your boss lady here," he added, looking at Shine with a playful glint in his eyes. "But I have to admit, the detective is quite the beauty. Wouldn't mind having her as my woman."Cole's protective instincts flared up, and he took a step closer, ready to defend Shine's honor. "Back off! She's not interested in you. It's a shams she is only interested in Kincaid “Cole retorted, his voice laced with a war
