CARTER'S POV "Why the hell would he meddle in my office affairs again after doing so to my personal life" I fumed, angry. "And to think I had to dress nice and get this disheartening news" I mumbled and sat down "Do I have anything on my schedule today?" I asked Clinton "Yes sir, you have a meeting with the production department and strategic planning team. Tomorrow and Saturday are also full" he said "Should you have said that??" I rolled my eyes at him "I'd still have said it. The earlier the better" Clinton beamed "Does this seem funny to you?? It's like you enjoy getting on my nerves" I rolled my eyes at him. "This is the time when I need Leonard" I muttered under my breath again "Sir, I've been meaning to ask. When is he returning??" Clinton inquired I and Clinton bonded well over time. He seemed to improve and now he does his work diligently and efficiently. "Well, I don't know. I haven't called him in a while but I'd inform you after
AUTHOR'S POV Daisy was sitting on the balcony enjoying the morning breeze when her phone rang. "Good morning ma'am" the man at the other end greeted "How's it coming along" she asked ignoring his greeting "Well, there's nothing to report because all he does is go to work, attend meetings and return home. No new thing" the man reported "Continue tailing him. You'd find something worthy to report if you concentrate more and take this job seriously" she said "Alright ma" he said and she hung up "Hmmm, so no girl or lady. That's a good report. That means he still hasn't moved on" she thought and smiled to herself She picked up her glass of wine and smiled mischievously. She drowned the whole cup and left the balcony She met her mother watching the news. Mrs Hemmington turned and said "Why can't you just leave the boy alone?? You were the cause for whatever happened b
VINA'S POV It felt like the night passed by quickly. Because I laid down a few minutes ago to sleep and now it's morning. I hope this ends well. I got up from my bed and checked the time. It displayed 10:00 am, which means I have two hours to get ready. I entered the bathroom, wrapped a towel around my head and took my bath. I dried my body and applied lotion. Then I took out my dress and wore it. I arranged my air and curled it as directed by Bella yesterday. After I was done, I applied lipgloss and wore my heels. I walked into my closet to choose a bag. I finally settle for a silver clutch purse. I took my keys and left my room. As usual, everyone was already out except my dad. He was busy on his iPad. I walked up to him and greeted him. He bade me goodbye and good luck then I stepped out and went to where my car was parked and drove out of the compound. My dad already told me the name of the restaurant so I typed it into the GPS and I drove there. I got there a
I left the restaurant after I completed my food. He already paid so I washed down the food with the wine and stood up to go home. I went to where my car was parked and I drove home. My sister and I drove into the compound at the same time. Guess her shoot took time because it was already evening" I thought as I got down "Hy sis" I waved at her as I walked inside "Hy sis" she mimicked. I ignored her since I know she was trying to get on my nerves. I've also noticed some weird changes in her lately. We didn't see throughout last week because she was busy but she sent me money twice. I called her to ask what the money was for but she just ignored the question and hung up. She has also been sending me gifts the company she models for gives to her. Now thanks to her, I have enough perfume and cosmetics to last me the whole year. I asked her why she sent them when she eventually came home and she said she hasn't finished the ones with her. "How did your date go"
VINA'S POV The weekend ran by weekly, same as the week. Everything moved so fast that I could barely account for what I did in a day or during the week. A lot really happened and one of them is that I noticed some changes in Kate but she refused to open up to me. I didn't want to look like I'm bothersome so I left her hoping she'd tell me someday I got to work the week after my date with Carter and it wasn't funny. I took out the anger and annoyance I should have poured on him when we were on the date. Mrs Simon and her friends loved their dress and referred more people. Our social media account followers tripled when the new designs were uploaded. The boutique was restocked and now looks full. I explained how everything went on the date to Kate and she could not help but laugh all through my story. She kept saying "You both would make the best couple" and it irritated me but I really don't have the strength to argue with her. I kept murmuring, speaking to myself about ho
CARTER'S POV When he saw I wasn't smiling he said "That's the main reason why you have to loosen up and try to have fun before you get hooked. You woukd not have the chance to do this when you get hitched" I looked at him trying to reason his words. I've been busy trying to get over Daisy by working everyday and not having fun. This opportunity is rare to come by after marriage and now is the time for me to seize the opportunity. I looked back at Leonard and he raised his brows at me. I looked down again and thought long snd hard. "Let's get this done and have fun" I screamed snd pulled Leonard along We went back inside and I apologised to the lady I pushed away. We ordered more drinks and began the enjoyment. The girl with me was blessed behind but wasn't really blessed at the front. She was not so bad and she had full lips too. She was good the way she lapdanced me at least she was trying her best. I turned to my side and noticed Leonard was gone. I smi
VINA'S POV Today is so stressful. I got to work very early. Kate came in 10 minutes after I got to work and we've both been busy ever since. The production department already completed Nia's dress and she's going to come later to check if it fits or needs any adjustments. My dress is in the making and I was eager to see my design being brought to life. Even though it was not a love marriage, I have to make it about myself since it would be a special day for me. I was helping Kate in choosing materials for her and my sister while she did the finishing touches on the dresses. The whole office was busy that we had no idea that the time for lunch had passed. A delivery guy came to the company and was directed to my office. He was asked to deliver pizza and ice cream to everyone in the office. I asked who told him to and he said he didn't know but it was from IMG Models Agency. I knew who it was so I thanked him. I called Emily to tell the heads of each department to p
VINA'S POV Kate passed out??!! Those words kept ringing in my head as I drove down to Bryan's place. I got there and forgot to switch off the ignition. I ran inside and met him standing beside Kate's lifeless body. I bent down and scooped Kate in my arms. I didn't know how I did it but I carried her to my car. Bryan also followed me and entered the car. I wanted to send him out but I figured this wasn't the time for that. I drove down to our family hospital immediately. I didn't wait for him to go call the nurse. I carried her out of the car and ran inside the hospital. The nurses spotted me and collected her from me. I followed them as they took her to a ward. The doctor told me to wait outside while he attended to her. When I was now alone with Bryan, I turned to him and landed a slap across his face "What did she do to you??" I questioned "What am I even saying?" I mumbled "What the fuck did you do to her?" I yelled at him I didn't give him the chan
