“I mean,you’re so good looking and sometimes it feels so surreal for someone to look so handsome.”He bit his lower lip trying not to smile.He always knew he was a very handsome man.Yes, he was confident about it but hearing her tell him that felt somehow amazing.“Are you perhaps starting to like me,Fabiola?”She blinked.Should she answer positively to that?What if she does?What would he say?She recalled he was someone who wasn’t even affected by their intimacy.So for the umpteenth time,she choose to keep her feelings to herself.She chose to change the topic to something she had observed.“You are yet to hire a secretary.”She pointed out.He shrugged.”Why are you asking?Will you like to be my secretary?”“Of course not…I was just asking.”She snorted and started to arrange the dishes.He stood up and walked over to his swivel chair..She used the opportunity to drool over him from behind…If only she could have his heart.“Are things going well for you in that department?Are y
Getting into the backseat with him,she quickly asked.“Can we please stop by the house?”He frowned.”Why?”“I don’t feel this outfit is suitable enough for the banquet.”She was clad in work clothes and she was sure she would look odd if she goes like this.One might think she was a waiter or something.“I really want to change.”She said with a smile.“Is there any need to?”He asked,nonchalantly.She sighed.”I’m pretty sure the banquet will be filled with so many wealthy men and…”“Fabiola,you are married.”He snapped.“I mean,men and women…people.I’m not going there to impress people I don’t know.I just don’t want to embarrass you.”She said,convincingly.Lorenzo grimaced,she had a point.He ordered the driver to head for the shopping mall.She grew tensed.”You’ve gotten me so many clothes already.I can just go home and change into one of them.”She offered.But he ignored her.She leaned against the chair trying to remind herself that he’s super wealthy.Soon they got to the mall and h
Fabiola was still so nervous as she walked into the Marquee holding onto Lorenzo.They stopped by some elegantly looking people and he began to exchange pleasantries with them.Fabiola faked a polite smile when needed but she was incredibly uncomfortable.Sensing his uneasy she looked,he placed his hand on the small of her back and asked.“Are you okay?”She swallowed as the people around stared at her as well.“I’m good.”She murmured.”I just want to sit down.But please do continue your conversation.”She said,politely and gestured at her empty chair near by.He wanted to go with her but about two more people came around to greet him so he said.“I’ll be right there.”And then he leaned and whispered.”I’ll take you to Mr Thiago later.”Fabiola smiled and nodded.“Mr Martini is such a doting husband.”One of the people around the said.Fabiola’s face flushed as she walked up to a chair.She tried her best to sashay elegantly even if she was still finding it hard to get used to heels.She f
She opened her eyes and blinked,rapidly.Oh she had gotten way ahead of herself there.“I…something flew into my eyes.”“Oh really?”He asked with one of those charming smiles of his.“Yes.”She shrieked.“If you say so,let’s go.”He urged.When the banquet officially begin,it would be hard to meet Thiago then.Fabiola quickly stood up and adjusted her dress then she followed him like an obedient child.She started to imagine meeting Thiago.He might know something about her parents and then he would tell her about them.She would finally locate them and then she would get to know what had happened when she was born.A knocking sound snapped her out of her reverie.She looked up to see Lorenzo knocking on a door.But there was no response.Lorenzo frowned,he had thought Thiago was in here.They heard a burst of laughter from the depths of the hallway.Fabiola looked over to see Cora and Esme laughing and talking as they walked up to them.Then they both noticed Fabiola and Lorenzo’s pres
Fabiola grinned.”You still remember me?”She asked.He smiled back.”Of course.Who wouldn’t?”“I mean,you perform on the streets so I guess you meet a lot of people everyday.”She reminded.Lucien grimaced.Why hadn’t he forgotten her face?She was right…he always met a lot of people on a daily basis so he was quick to forget his customers.Most times,they were the ones who recognizes him first but tonight,he had recognized her.Probably because she had paid that day and did not take her painting?Probably because it was one of the paintings he liked to look at?“Well,I can say you have a face that one can’t easily forget.”He drawled sounding so flirtatious.Fabiola smiled and asked politely.”What are you doing here?”She was on a strapless dress and with him standing,the top of her cleavage was on full display to him.He tried not to make it obvious that he was staring at her boobs.They would be so good to play with.“Mr Thiago invited me.I used to be his apprentice.”He replied.Fabiol
Fabiola broke out of his arm and Lorenzo watched her walk in front of him.She didn’t want to be close to him now?Deeply annoyed,he hurried up to her.“I can’t believe you’re still thinking about that man.”He snorted.The night was cold and he saw her wrapped her arms around herself.Her dress was strapless and despite being mad at her,he quickly took off his jacket and tried to cover her body with it but she pushed his hand away.“I don’t need your jacket!”She snapped.“What do you need then?Lucien?”This woman was getting him pissed beyond words.”Have you forgotten that you’re still my wife?!”She looked away and didn’t give him a reply.That gave him all the replies he needed.“He’s still at the party!You can go back and see him.”He sneered,not meaning that at all.Then she met his eyes.Go back and meet him?Can’t he just say he would support her dream,genuinely?Can’t he just say he wanted her to be in his life as much as she wanted him?At this moment,she wanted to be away from
Just come with me,you bitch.Do you know who I am?You should be fucking glad that someone like me is interested in you!Don’t cause any scene of else,you’ll be sorry.”“Let me go!”She tried to scream but her voice didn’t even come out as loud as it should.And she was getting more and more dizzier by the second.She knew she had gotten drunk when she had some glasses of champagne at the marquee but after she had accepted that glass from him,it had gotten her weaker.She couldn’t bear being molested again so she gathered up every bit of strength she had left and nailed him at the dick.Raul grunted in pain and backed away from her.That seemed to get some people’s attention thereby.Fabiola felt embarrassed as they started to point at her.She wished the ground could open and swallow her up.“Isn’t that Mrs Martini?”“I thought she had left with her husband?”“What is she doing here without him?”She felt mortified.She was the one that was almost sexually assaulted.Why were the tables
Cora pulled Esme aside and asked curiously.“Do you know anything about that bracelet Fabiola was wearing just now?Did Lorenzo give it to her?”Esme frowned.She knew nothing about the bracelet.But now that she thought back to it,that exact type was always on Fabiola’s wrist.Did Lorenzo give it to her?That even got her madder because she desperately wanted to be in Fabiola’s shoes.“I have no idea.But he might have given it to her as a gift and I notice she is always on it.”Cora grimaced.It still didn’t add up for her grandfather to give something like that to Lorenzo.Even if the old man was fond of Lorenzo,that wasn’t just something he could give to an outsider who wasn’t bearing his family name.What if she had saw wrongly?What if that wasn’t the right inscription?She had to be sure.And she had to discreetly ask Thiago if he had given something like that to Lorenzo.“Is there anyway you can get that bracelet for me?”She asked,Esme.She knew Esme had always been scheming sin
