Sam refused to go with the bearded man. Since she was drunk, her rejection was quick and sharp angering the man and hurting his pride. He tried to pick her up and force her into his car but Sam was fighting back.When she took a blow to the belly, all her strength was sapped out of her. The man picked her up and placed her on his shoulder but was stopped by a voice Sam thought was familiar."Let her go," Ian ordered firmly.The man turned to him and frowned, "Who do you think you are? I found her first, go get yours." Before Ian could reply, the man turned and began to walk away.Suddenly, a hand grabbed him and a punch landed on his face. Ian caught hold of Sam before she hit the ground and hurried out of the bar to his car where he dumped a drunk Sam and started the car.He hit the accelerator when the doors of the bar flew open and the men piled out seeking to beat him up however he fled.Out of danger zone, he stared at Sam who was murmuring something under her breath."What do yo
The next morning, Karen woke up to an empty space beside her. After having her bath, she walked downstairs for breakfast. It was still too early and she wondered why Kevin wasn't home.After breakfast, Mrs Kord called for her and she walked into the woman's room."Sit, Karen." she patted the bedside and Karen obeyed. Considering her puffed eyes, it seemed that she cried all night. What could be the reason?"What's wrong, mother? Are you sick?""It's just a small fever," Marie dismissed it and then looked up at Karen. "You must wonder why no one is home except for the women, of course."Karen nodded."Well, there was an urgent meeting concerning the finances of the company. The previous manager just catered away some of the profit without any trace."Karen nodded and said a simple, "Oh,"Marie took Karen's soft hand in hers and said, "We barely know each other but you have done so much for me and my son. Even for my entire family. If you had not agreed to marry him, I don't know where
Meanwhile, Amelia and Mrs Smith had gotten first hand news on the manager that embezzled money from Kord industries. "That should have been us, mother!" shrieked Amelia as she applied lip gloss on her lips "He took millions! I doubt he will ever be caught." "What's more important is that the position for manager is vacant." said her mother "You have to clinch that position before it will be given to someone else." Amelia rolled her eyes, "Ian is really being a pain in the neck, mother. I have no idea what's wrong with him. He wouldn't give me a job there because of a woman we bumped into when we met at the cafe." "A woman?" Mrs Smith repeated "Who is she to him?" Amelia shrugged, "I really don't know." "Listen baby," Mrs Smith held her daughter, "You can't let any woman push you aside. No matter who she is, you must exert your hold on Ian! You need him!" Amelia sighed, "I don't know what to do, mom! He doesn't seem to interested in me anymore." "Don't give up just yet," she he
Since the Kords we're fixing the disruption caused by the company's financial manager, Sam and Karen were free for the day. Until the issue is settled they might have only less work to do. Both women were not in their best forms. Although they had headed out for an ice cream, they watched it pass by them without buying."I need to tell you something, Sam." Karen said after finding a place they could sit. "Mr Kord wants an heir."Sam pursed her lips, "Is he forcing you to have one?"Karen shook her head, "He's given Kevin and Elliot another ultimatum. He said the first to give him an heir will have a greater part of his will."Sam rolled her eyes and sat back, "Why do the problems never finish??!"Karen sighed, "I don't think I can carry a child, Sam. I'm afraid I'll die quicker than I should and even worse, with the child."Sam felt sorry for her friend, "What are you going to do now?"Karen sighed again, "I have to let Selene have a child for Kevin instead."Upon hearing that Sam sn
Some business associates stopped Elliot and Mr Kord and so Kevin and Selene were alone at the far end."It's true," she told him "It looks like after your father's ultimatum, Karen has lost the will to continue. She was only after your money and now that she will have to carry a child for it, she's backing out. She has surrendered you to me. Aren't you happy?"Kevin gritted his teeth, he did not believe a word that Selene said. "Karen is not like that."Selene hissed, "You've only known her for three months, Kevin and you're defending her? Well, find out yourself! She told me this morning that I can have you back.""Get away from me," said Kevin as he slipped out his phone and dialed Karen's number. Although it rang, the call was not picked."Kevin, don't be stubborn will you?" said Selene as she was getting fed up, "We can have a baby together. Wasn't it your dream to get married to me and have a family?"After looking at her with a cold gaze, Kevin said, "You are married to Elliot,
"You.." Karen couldn't believe her ears, she shook her head. "You said you will never take me as your wife. You..you said I am a nobody to you." "Yes," he said "I did. Isn't it possible for things to change? Do you not want to love you?" "How can I believe that you have moved on so quickly from Selene? How-" He placed a finger on her lips, "Even I cannot believe it but it's true. So don't push me away. If you don't want to have a baby with me-" Karen cut him off and said, "I want to have a baby with you." Kevin couldn't believe his ears. He paused, still in shock. Karen straightened up and placed a hand on his chest, biting her lips as she said, "I want to have a baby with you, Kevin Kord." she repeated, her tone soft and almost silent. He grabbed her waist and brought her close, claiming her lips that instant. His hands roamed all over her against the wall, making her feel a thousand emotions at once. Karen had never done this before so she couldn't keep up with his pace.
One month passed very quickly and Karen thought it to be the best moment of her life as she didn't only get married into a wealthy family but managed to win the heart of Kevin Kord, the only man her heart came to love.Last month was stress free for Karen, if she wasn't at work in the Kord industries she was with Kevin and barely had any time for Sam who wasn't mad about it.She was truly happy that Karen was living her best life. Besides, it was only eight months left before...So she deserves the best.Sam was at the company today. Ever since she had a night stand with Ian she avoided him like a plague. His mother had come to her and warned her severely to stay away from Ian.Even without the warning, Sam had already decided to choose her peace over him. Yet it didn't hurt less whenever Amelia walked into the company and Sam knew she was here for Ian.How Amelia managed to get a job as the manager of the company was not baffling to Sam. Ian must have helped her considering the relat
Sam walked out of the hospital and took a cab back to her house in a daze. "Sam?" her mother called the moment she walked through the door, "Are you okay?"However, Sam was oblivious to anyone and anything. She simply took the stairs to her room and locked the door behind her, the doctor's words still ringing in her ears.'I think you might be pregnant,'Sam sat hopelessly on her bed as tears began to form in her eyes. When she thought about the impossibilities surrounding ever being with Ian, the tears began to flow very quickly.She began to sob and curse herself. It was bad getting pregnant at the stage of her life. Her mother was not a dependable woman, she would likely get any man and force Sam to marry him.Terminating the pregnancy scared the shit out of Sam and then she remembered that it wasn't a fact yet.She was told to come back for her test result two days later. Only when she remembered this did she calm down and stopped crying.* * *The next day, Sam and Ian were seat
