Ryan and Alexander sat down under an oak tree, in the compound. She have been indoors all through a d she wants to get a little fresh air. Sitting close to each other for the first time, after she was discharged. She felt like resting her head in his shoulders, as he had been pampering her, since she returned."You are supposed to go to work, you don't have to babysit me all through. I am fine, really". She says, even though she didn't really mean it, she wants him around, yet, she just had to say it."Are you sure you really want me to leave you? He asked with the most attractive voice, and with his mouth so close to her ears, she could feel his breath, she swallowed hard, and tries to move away, but he pulls her close. "Don't move away from me, and don't tell me to go to work. I want to be with you. You are my job". Ryan says. Causing Alexander to look up at him and their lips almost brushed. She blushed a little and send a strand of hair behind her, then she clears her voice."T
Ryan woke up with a gentle smile on his face, the warmth of Alexander embrace still lingering in his memory. The night before, had been magical, a culmination of months of growing feelings and shared moments. They had finally professed their love for each other, and everything felt perfect. Yet as the first light of dawn peeked through the curtains, a heavy realization settled in his chest. He had to leave for work. He had been staying with her, since after the accident, not wanting to leave her, especially after finding out that someone close was after her life, but on this very day, he sadly needed to leave for work.Alexander stirred beside him, her eyes fluttering open. "Morning", she murmured, her voice soft and sleepy. "Morning, love", Ryan replied, leaning in to kiss her forehead. "I hate to say this, but I have to get ready for work". He says, guilt evident on his face. He had mentioned it to her last night, and she had agreed, but he was saying it again, somehow within her,
The night spent was love filled, a sweet respite from the turbulence both had to face. Ryan wanted to make it perfect for Alexander, ensuring she felt cherished and adored. The kitchen was bustling with sound of clinking pots and pans as Ryan prepared dinner. His movements a blend of grace and efficiency. The aroma of garlic and herbs filled the air, mingling with the soft jazz playing in the background.Alexander wanted to help, she felt useless just sitting and watching him do everything, after all, he just got back from work, he should be resting, after all, she had been at home all day doing nothing. The truth was that she would have made dinner before he returns from work, but she is too worried that her meal won't be half as nice as that of Ryan. She got up to help chop some vegetables, but he stopped her."Relax, Alex", Ryan called out, turning his head to flash a reassuring smile at her. Alexander sat at the dinning table, watching him with a mix of admiration and curiosity
Ryan had been speaking and he continued speaking, even though he sort of heard a low snore, he pressed on still, hoping against hope that she was listening. He needs to take off the weight from his chest, if he really wants their relationship to work. There was no way he could feel okay to be with her, with such huge secret in his heart. It was weighing him down and it was high time, he let it out After speaking for so long with no reaction from her, he paused, waiting again for the inevitable outburst. Not after saying something as grave as that, she would keep silent. He would prefer her yell and throw tantrums at him than for her to just keep quiet, but after waiting for what seem like forever, there was nothing, her head was still rested on his chest, and she held on tight to him. He glanced at her, thinking she was probably crying, but he noticed that she had fallen asleep. Ryan sighs, then shook his head.Ryan felt a wave of mixed emotions washed over him- relief that he did
Ryan kept watching Alexander as she continues to act strange, making secret calls, even though she didn't show him, she was angry or something, he feared that something was up, but he prays that it better be something good that he could relate with. While Ryan had his plans all set out about how he was going to spend the weekend with her, and at the end, he would tell her the secret he had been hiding, he got a shock.The next day was Saturday, but for them, weekends didn't mean to rest, contrasting Ryan's plan of rest.When Ryan woke up, he noticed she wasn't beside him, but then he was pulled up by the smell of breakfast waiting through the kitchen house. He found her in the kitchen, humming softly as she flipped pancakes. "Good morning", she greeted him with a smile that seemed to brighten the room. She even pulled him into an embrace."Good morning", he replied, wrapping his arms around her from behind. "What's this surprise you have planned? He asked, unable to hide it anymore.
The next day was Sunday, but still Alexander woke up before dawn, her mind racing with plans for the day. She slipped out of bed quietly like she did the day before, careful not to wake Ryan who seemed too tired from the activity of yesterday, which she also planned.She headed down stairs. A soft knock on the door signaled the arrival of her packages. She opened the door to greet the delivery man, who handed over several boxes. Alexander thanked him and began loading the packages into a truck parked in the drive way.Ryan stirred by the noises, rubbed the sleep off his eyes and followed the sounds downstairs.He paused on the staircase, watching Alexander with a curious gaze. She noticed him and flashed a bright smile, her eyes twinkling with excitement."What plans have you made again. I thought you should be in bed? He asked, still feeling sleepy."Good morning, sleepyhead ", she teased gently. "I've planned something special for us today".Ryan raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "What
Ryan Scott came prepared to uncover so many things on this special day. He had taken too much rest, with his wife, and now he was ready to work.He had barely settled into his office, when the first file he had to face was that of discrepancies. The other day he came into the office, he was supposed to have seen that file, but his mind was filled with the thought of Alexander, but knowing that she is okay, and she is happy with him, was enough to make him focus on work.At first, they were small, a missing receipt here, a duplicate invoice there. But as he checked on, the anomalies grew glaring. Ryan's diligence and attention to detail had always been his strong suit, and he was determined to uncover the truth.He needed to do some findings, but as the days went on by, he kept noticing from one anomaly to another.One afternoon, as he pored over the latest batch of financial reports, Ryan's eye narrowed at yet another suspicious transaction. The amount was significant, and the recipi
Over the next few days, Ryan continued his investigation, gathering more evidence of Lindsay's fraudulent activities. He worked late into the night, meticulously documenting every irregularity and cross referencing them with official records. He discovered that the Louis and Luisa enterprise was a shell company, created to siphon funds from the business.Ryan's findings painted a damning picture of Lindsay's deception. She had been funneling money into personal accounts, using it to fund a lavish lifestyle, that included expensive vacations, luxury cars and designer clothes. Not for herself alone, but for her son and his girlfriend, and also her boy friend. Her husband was oblivious to her schemes, trusting her implicitly with the company's finances.It was about to come to an end.One evening, as Ryan was compiling his final report, he received an unexpected visitor. It was Joseph, the head of the company's legal department and a close friend of the CEO. He had heard about Ryan's in
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
