Clarissa's ex was back in her life again and was there to stay. It took him some time to be able to get her direct phone number but he was successful and that was what mattered. "Zane how did you get my number?!" Clarissa yelled into the telephone, trying to hide her tense feeling. Without waiting for an answer, Clarissa, with shaky hands, put down the telephone, ending the call. Clarissa began to panic and blamed her stupidity for the awful mistake she had just made. "No-no-no! I did not just do that! He hates it when I do that!" Clarissa panicked. Suddenly, a knock came on Clarissa's office door. Clarissa jumped in fear as her heart skipped a beat. Clarissa had to place her hand on her chest and hold it there to calm herself. "Who is there?" Clarissa asked. "Ma'am, it's me, your secretary." the voice answered. "What do you want?" Clarissa asked, in annoyance. "I am so sorry to disturb you ma'am but I heard you shouting. I just wanted to check if everything is okay." the secr
[Later in the evening, At Zane Murray's mansion.]Just as Zane Murray sipped his expensive wine, his doorbell rang. Zane waved away the maid which had brought him the wine and he remained seated on his sofa, while he stared at the wine bottle in front of him. After a few minutes, another maid of Zane's enters. "Sir. There is a woman here to see you." the maid said to Zane. Zane set his wine glass down on the glass table in front of him and then relaxed his back on his sofa, "and her name?" Zane asked the maid. "She didn't say." the maid answered Zane. "And you asked her already?" Zane questioned. "I asked but she refused to tell me." the maid replied Zane. Zane smiled to himself. He knew very well, who it was. "Tell her to come in," Zane instructed the maid and she left. After some time, the maid returned with a lady behind her. Without turning his head, Zane spoke to the maid, "leave us." Zane's maid left and a few seconds later, Zane turned to see that just as he expected, Cl
[At the Charles family mansion]I feel so exhausted and at the same time, angry that I got nothing done in the end. This made no sense to me. How come nothing was incriminating in Clarissa's room despite the kind of person I knew she was? She must have dipped her hand into something illegal at some point. Or is all the secrets kept in her parents' room? That damned butler locked the door before I could get in and now that I'm done with the mopping, it's already dark. Mr and Mrs Charles will be back soon and so will Clarissa. I blame this error on myself. I should have begun from the top in mopping instead of going straight to Mr and Mrs Charles' room and getting the butler suspicious. I stood up from the floor and went outside to get rid of the dirty water. I was doused in sweat and smelled horrible. After getting out of the house with the bucket, I approached the gate but the security man stopped me. "I just want to get rid of this dirty water. Nothing else." I said to him. Th
I walked around the maze like a mansion in search of a spot to sleep. I stopped at a wide space and decided to sleep close to a wall. Of course, I had no blanket to wrap myself in and no sheet to protect my skin from the deadly cold floor but I had no choice unless I was going to sleep on my feet. I lay down and my body shook as my skin came in contact with the floor. I don't know how but I managed to fall asleep despite the cold... [The next day]I felt myself away but my eyes were still closed and I was still, I'm some way, asleep on the floor. Someone was kicking me and that was what brought me fully away. I opened my eyes just to see a maid standing over me. As soon as I got up, the maid left and I didn't know what to do. What was that all about? Did they send her to me or she was checking if I was alive or dead? Either way, now I'm awake and I have to get back to my employers' sight. I walked back to the living room and there I saw that Mr and Mrs Charles were standing right
"I think your houseboy is already enjoying the show anyhow," Zane stated. Clarissa looked up and saw me. She instantly stood up and kept the tray on the table and glared at me. It was only at that moment that I realized that Clarissa was in a maid's uniform. A very short one. I was so busy enjoying her suffering that I didn't even notice it at first. I am very sure that it was this Zane guy that made her wear it. But what is he holding over Clarissa that is making her bend to his will? "I thought I told you to clean the bathroom upstairs," Clarissa said to me. "Calm down baby. Just sit down a little." Zane said to Clarissa. He was tapping his lap, which meant he wanted Clarissa to sit on his lap. Clarissa looked angry, embarrassed, and helpless at the same time. She sat on Zane's lap and he made he relax on his body while Zane placed his hand on her left thigh and slowly slid his fingers upwards while glancing over at me. I decided that I had seen enough. This wasn't something I
Zane met the butler outside after he was signalled by the butler to follow. "Did you find it?" Zane asked the butler. "No sir. I searched their room thoroughly but found nothing." the butler replied. "What the!... Then what did you call me out here for? Keep searching damn it! I'm sure that they have it. If only I could get my hands on it then it would be a huge bonus for me." Zane said to the butler. "But sir, I've been trying my best. I have searched everywhere but there was no trace of it." the butler replied Zane. "Then try harder old man. Or else you know what will happen if you keep giving me these dumb excuses. You know what I can do." Zane threatened. "But sir I have tried my best but no luck. Please don't harm my family. I will do whatever you say. I will keep searching." the butler begged. At the same moment when the butler went to his knees, Clarissa walked through the front door and met the scene. Seeing that Clarissa had spotted him, and in order not to raise susp
[At a celebrity's birthday party]Clarissa Charles and Zane Murray arrived in their limo. Zane was the first to step out and held the door open for Clarissa. Clarissa came out of the limo, dressed in a glittery white dress. The paparazzi were not allowed to go into the building where the party was taking place but they still stuck around to take pictures of whichever celebrity would walk in. When they saw Zane hold their hand on Clarissa as she stepped out of the car, they rushed at her. Luckily for Zane and Clarissa, bodyguards were made available for them and the paparazzi were not allowed to come in contact with them. Many cameras flashed at the two and they acted as if they didn't want to be taken pictures. "But where is her husband? Why didn't she come with him?" someone said. "And this man. Isn't that Zane with her?" another said. "If I remember correctly, they were once dating each other years ago." the third said. "Mrs Clarissa! Are you still in love with your ex?! Does
To Clarissa's surprise, Zane went straight to his room without a word to her. Clarissa sighed in relief, "maybe he's going to let me off this time." Clarissa thought to herself. Clarissa climbed up the stairs and entered her room. She fell backwards unto her bed and tried to relax. Clarissa Sat up and looked at her door, "thankfully, he let me go." Clarissa said to herself and stood up. She closed the door and then went into her bathroom. Zane, in his room, still remembered the audacity of Clarissa at the birthday party, "if she thinks she got away with it then she is deceiving herself. It's a good thing that men bathe faster than women who seem to take an eternity to get done." Zane said. Zane too got up and went to have a bath. He finished up, and still wrapped only in a towel, he left his bedroom and went to Clarissa's bedroom. Zane laid down on Clarissa's bed and waited. "If she wasn't here that meant that she entered her bathroom." Zane thought. Soon after, Clarissa came o
