" am sIorry Dad, it didn't work out". He had his head bowed low, as he spoke shamefully. "We were having too many issues, that she wouldn't let sly, and I couldn't stand her, I am sorry". Ryan started, Still looking down, thinking his father would be disappointed in him and maybe flare up, like he had done the first time he rejected the proposal, but to his surprise, he got up from his seat and hugged him. Ryan noticed he looked very weak, and unhappy, but he wouldn't go back on his words, so he pretended not to notice."I have not been myself since you left this house, and though I wished it worked, but I also want your happiness, that is more important to me than any other thing". He stared long at his father and nodded his head. "Thanks for understanding Dad, I was worried about you, and I thought you wouldn't accept, but I am glad you did. But Dad, are you okay? He had to ask, for his father didn't look so well, and he had a cannula in hand. "I am fine, don't worry about me".
"What is wrong with my dad? Ryan asked, almost in tears, and the nurse who has a killer smile, turned to face him."Oh! You are his son? Don't worry, your father would be fine, he is getting a high class treatment, and all bills are being paid by Damien Brick". Ryan knows all that, Maybe the nurse needed to explain to him, because she thinks he might be worried about the bills, but he wanted to know what sort of ailment his father has. "I said, what is wrong with my father? He raised his voice at her angrily, The nurse raised a brow, before speaking calmly. "Your father has a rare heart disease. From series of test and research, it is believed that it could be a reaction from the number of years he stayed driving, so he isn't supposed to be working now, he is just meant to eat and sleep. and a personal maid has also been assigned to him, someone that would look after him all the time, and that is why I said you shouldn't worry, because with the sort of treatment he is getting, he will
Looking straight into Lindsay unwavering eyes, Ryan demanded that she sits comfortably, because his questions will be long, and will need her to answer him, so that as a family, they could find out what is really happening. Ryan made her feel he was speaking with her in a friendly manner, but that was because of the presence of Damien Brick who seem to be loving every bit of what he was doing.Ryan loving the look on Lindsay's face, he brought out the files he had with him, his files are nearly stacked, he had actually walked into the bosses office prepared while he was going through his files, Lindsay wore a confident smile, but one could always tell that she was scared. And the way Damien was looking at her, she could feel her confident wavering. Lindsay was trying really hard to maintain her composure, especially since her husband was very much around, and was not giving her the lovey dovy eye, he was giving her the suspicious look."Like I said, I have been reviewing the expen
Ryan walked back straight into his office, expecting to find an empty office, but he was surprised to find Damien Brick in his office, and he dropped a key on his table.Ryan looked shocked at him, wondering what the key is for, and he smiles, before saying. "This is officially your car key to the Royce parked outside". Though he would have preferred the small car he had been driving, he remembered that he had told himself that what he came to do is work, and he wouldn't add sentiment to it. He doesn't know how everyone would feel, when they find out he had sex with Lindsay a night before his marriage to Alexander, they may not listen to him, they may push him away, and he might be left with nothing, so he needed to be smart, to acquire, all that is needed, before the contract ends, if for nothing, for the sake of his father."Thank you sir". He says, and Damien handed him the papers to the car, and his name was boldly written on every document."I will be leaving now, thank you onc
The next day looked promising, for when he visited his father before leaving for work, he looked brighter than he had been the previous day. It encouraged Ryan to work more, that whatever the Brick family was giving to his father to help him get well, they needed to continue, so that he recovers fully.He left for work, feeling happy.But when he got to work, he didn't feel the usual welcome vibe he got the other day, Something was definitely off. Everyone was looking at him like he didn't something wrong, more like they don't know him, as he walked in slowly into his office after parking his car, he walked slowly into his office, wondering why everyone was staring at him as such, but since he doesn't know so many people yet, he didn't know whom to ask about what was going on. The look they were giving him was worrisome.When he got to his office, he was even scared to sit down, he looked around him and those that are supposed to be working, were busy, looking at him like he had som
Annie stared long at the closed door, before looking back at her friend. "Somehow, I think he is sincere. what if someone is trying to frame him? She asked and Alexander eyed her. "Who would want to frame a poor boy like him. He has nothing, his parents have nothing, he was born into a poor family and only agreed to this marriage because he needs money, so his type, can never be satisfied, he would always want more. He has nothing, so why will anyone, frame a duns? She had a point, since the marriage was a contract, he is in her life for the money and the benefits, so there is no way, he wouldn't want to do any other thing to get more money, even if it is to show the world, the part of Alexander, that she didn't want the world to see."But why didn't you destroy the picture, after the other surgeries? Annie asked, wondering why anyone would want to keep something, she herself doesn't want to see."I didn't want to keep it, but that image had a bracelet in it. It belonged to my mother,
The anger in his heart was melted down immediately, when he reached the house, and sees that she was actually nursing his father, for he was coughing profusely, that he even coughed blood. She didn't seem to notice him, it was his father that noticed him standing by the door, and called out to him, before she turned to look at him, but she looked away immediately. She administered his pills, and soon he was relaxed. "Where is your nurse Dad? Ryan was more worried about that, as he took a step inside, and shut the door, it is already too late for their doors to still be opened."When Juliana came, and said she would spend the night here, the nurse decided to go and attend to some personal problems, but she will be back tomorrow, you don't have to worry, she was with me since morning". Ryan sighed with relief, for he would have asked questions, wondering already, if they stopped the nurse.After a few more minutes, Mr Scott was sleeping and snoring loudly, it is just an hour to midni
The next day at work. Ryan lay his head on the desk, and flashed back to what happened the previous day.It was sad that Damien also thinks he could do such a thing. Somehow, he wished his father isn't involved, he wish he could just walk away from the contract, but he couldn't, unless it was coming from Damien himself, there was no way, he could watch and allow his father go to Jail, for something he could do on his own, his mother would laugh at him, and Julianna would never stop laughing. After the days work, Ryan wanted to see Damien for the last time before going home, for he doesn't know how to act or what to do, but as soon as he got close to the office, he could hear them having a heated argument, about him. Ryan was frustrated. The fact that he is in the middle of it all, was tiring. "Dad, you cannot possibly mean that? How am I supposed to live in the same house with a man like that? Alexander was crying, while Lindsay was furious. She had never liked Alex, and they had ne
She thought she would have a little time to do a little ladies thing, but surprisingly, as he sucked on her breast, while fondling at the same time with it, reminded her of the night she drugged Ryan. He had been so angry about getting married to Alexander and had been so fierce with her. Damien also looks very angry, and is also acting strangely. Though she was married to him for years, she never saw him, so fierce and needy before, she tries to blame it on the substance, but then it isn't also the first time, she was using a substance on him. Her marriage with him have been more like a child's play, that she always tries to spice their sex life up in one way or another, which never really gave her the vibe and energy she so long for. Which is also why she meets withen outside her marriage."You are different". She confessed, with the way he was fondling with her, and moving his hands all around her, it felt like he had been hungry for too long."Yes I know, and you taste differen
Lindsay visited Damien Brick again, she has been visiting him a lot since he became partially ill, but he has been acting like he isn't attracted to her anymore, she decided to add a little aphrodisiac, into his medicines, she needed to get him to break by all means. When she got to the house, she noticed he looked stronger than what her son had told her."What are you doing here? He asked, as soon as he saw her entering, and he would have continued, but their son walked in, he looked happy to see his mother, and after exchanged pleasantries, she asked him to excuse them."I came to see you Damien, you are my husband, we just separated because of misunderstanding, but I am here now, and I am here to make everything right, that is if you are going to give me a chance". She looked determined, and Damien looked like he is about to give in, but not without a force."We don't have anything to discuss, we are divorced, wether you signed the papers or not". He tells her, but she knows better
Juliana feigned a smile, then walked in slowly, as though she had come into the wrong house to steal, but they were all giving her a shocking look, that she sensed to already know the reason for their looks. But she still needs to confirm."Hello everyone". She greeted, but they didn't respond to her greeting, they kept looking at her, like she is some kind of a burglar. The other younger sisters, that probably didn't know her, even clinched to their purses, and phones."I know I didn't visit when I said I would and I have been away for too long, but it's been a really long journey for me, as the man I thought was going to be a father to our daughter is misbehaving. He abandoned me to be with a billionaire's daughter, and they took Emily away from me by force". She thought of playing the pity card, but the stories that the head sister have heard was enough for her, not to believe any act she puts up. When they didn't respond still, she looked around her, and seeing so much gifts a
Alexander noticed how worried Ryan was all through, she knows she has to get all documents ready for them to visit the court, Ryan may have been worried that she spends times with Emily more, but the truth is that the girl is full of wisdom, and she has given her more informations than she expect to get from her, she used the gotten informations, to take the first step of visiting the mother less home, where Emily grew up. Ryan was so lost in his thoughts that he didn't even notice when she left, he was trying to bring himself as to how to tell Alexander what happened between him and Lindsay, he lay on the bed, looking up at the ceiling, when Alexander stepped out unnoticed, but that was also because she didn't want him to know when she left. She had already called the sisters in charge, so they were expecting her. She initially didn't tell them her aim, she just told them, she wanted to come visit the kids there with something, and they were happy to have her visit.When she got t
Ryan was glued to his phone at the house, as he lay on the couch with Alexander whom had been with him, cuddling him and not paying attention to everything Juliana was saying, she even laughed at her, at some point, especially those times she let out tears.She tries to kiss him, to get him back to a mood of wildness, and not a mood of worry, but Ryan seem lost.He could barely believe his eyes as Juliana twisted every event, painting herself as the victim, a woman scorned and reply hurt by his actions. "She left me for money and she was never pregnant, what the hell is she saying? he asked out loud, angry at the way the world seem to believe her.He clenched his fists, feeling the rage boil beneath the surface. If she were to be with him at the time, she would have forgotten the rules against hitting women and get violent with her. How could she do this to him, his thoughts raced, torn between the betrayal and the sinking realization of the public fallout. He hadn't told the world
After the other day's humiliation, Juliana couldn't take it anymore, it is now evident, that Ryan and the entire Damien family is never going to do the needful, she needed to make them do it by force, especially since Ryan still considered Emily his daughter, it goes a long way to show that he doesn't know yet, that Emily is in no way related to him. She needs to be fast with her plans before he finds out, or before Emily tells the world, where she came from.Juliana watched the card of one of the media personnel in her hand, and contemplated a little, if she should take that step. She had refused for so long, but now, taking that step, seems to be the only way to get them to come around, at least, that is what the world will be expecting from her, since what happened the other day.Juliana made that one single call, and she was immediately invited. She was promised that the outcome would wow her, and she wouldn't regret coming, she was told by the interviewer, that all she needs t
While Alexander was tired from the activities that had kept her and Ryan locked up in the house, she didn't know, Ryan was busy, planning a grand welcome party for Emily. While they were discussing what Emily had been through, they had mentioned having a small party for her, where her friends will come around and she will celebrate her new home with them, but Ryan didn't just throw a small party, it was indeed a big party.Because, As the sun bathed the garden in a warm glow, Emily and Mr Scott stepped into the family home, to a very warm reception. Alexander didn't even know about his plans, but he had all her friends from school, the house staff and even a few neighbors to welcome her. Surprisingly, he had invited her aunt and her Dad, that she hadn't seen anywhere else, other than the office.He just felt like a little celebration wouldn't hurt, since he isn't sure, if she had ever celebrated before in her entire life, especially since they have had such discussion before.The so
Too exhausted from the sweet activity of the night, they lay, curled up in bed with no one wanting to leave the other. This is exactly what Ryan wants when he sent Emily to stay with his father, and the weekend is already over, when Emily will take his wife from him again.Still enjoying the company and warmth of having each other, they heard a disturbing sound. It was a sound, from their phone, which blared into their ears, causing them to hiss angrily, but the sound came again, and they jolted awake. The sound shattered the early morning quietness. Left to Ryan, and surely Alexander, they would have stayed up in bed for hours, before getting up.Groggy and still tangled in the sheets, they exchanged a tired glance before Ryan reached over to grab his phone. The caller ID flashed Juliana. With a sigh, he showed Alexander who was calling, and she only took a moment to also see who the caller is, before entangling in his body.Juliana isn't worth their time, so she wouldn't leave h
Initially the lights were too bright in the bathroom, but Ryan made it dim, by switching on the dim light instead of the very bright one, causing the environment to give a more sensual and romantic feel, and adding vibe to the fun they were having. The sound of water cascading filled the air, as Ryan and Alexander stood beneath the hot shower, their bodies closed, breathing deep and ragged. The water streamed over them, mingling with the heat between them. If not for the stream of water pouring down on them, what they could have been seeing would have been sweat all through, because they entwined their body in a way that nothing could break.Ryan had initially planned to just enjoy the fun, but it was begining to look like they are going to enjoy more than just playing with the hot shower, that is no longer feeling so hot anymore.Ryan brushed a strand of wet hair from Alexander's face, his fingers lingering as he gazed into Alexander's eyes. Their bodies so close that they could f
