“I don’t want to end anything between us, I just want us to move a little slower. Can you allow me that?” Her words are spoken with a little hurt present in her voice, and I feel guilty all over again for how I reacted. All she has been asking for is to not move too quickly and that is perfectly reasonable. When I left earlier it was because I didn’t know how to handle my emotions, I was overwhelmed and needed to clear my head. I never thought that she would react so badly to my actions and looking back it was completely obvious that she would think I left her. I was ignoring my phone and just driving with no destination in mind until eventually I stopped and parked up. My phone rang and I answered it but had to pull it away from my ear when Ellis started yelling through the line at me. “Are you completely insane?! Where are you?” “Why are you calling me Ellis?” “Why? Why? Did last night completely fry your brains? I was content laying with my girl, and all was right until she

I feel embarrassed that I offered him a meal but then was not able to provide one. But he doesn’t seem worried about it and is quick to suggest ordering in. “I don’t mind. But I do order from Rising Sun Chinese quite often.” “Chinese it is then. What would you like?” I tell him my usual order and he makes the call while I choose to start clearing out the abomination that is now my fridge. How I managed to keep my stomach down when I opened it, I will never know. “What can I help with?” I look over my shoulder and see him standing close by rolling up his sleeves and I chuckle. “Could you fetch the bin for me? I don’t think much of this is going to be salvageable. I also need cleaning supplies, over there under the sink.” He nods and does as I ask, quickly bringing me the bin to throw things into before fetching the cleaning items. We spend the next thirty minu

I am unable to answer them at first, surprised by the question. They simply smile kindly, and I even see a little twinkle of mischief in their eyes. “Oh, well, I actually met him on my way to work one morning and then he came into the café with a friend. We began talking and he gave me his number. After that things have just progressed as they would normally, I guess.” I shrug as though it is not a big deal, but they are both smiling widely and it’s a little unnerving. “Goodness, John, she is smitten.” “Indeed Beth, finally our little Angel has found someone to spend her time with.” They sound like proud grandparents, and I stare at them wondering why they are acting like this. Shaking my head, I move to stand but Mr B reaches out to stop me. “Sorry for asking something so personal. But I wonder, would you allow me to ask one more?” He seems concerned that I will say

I watch from my car as she enters the café and speaks to her friends and her boss. She seems happy so I turn the ignition and drive home to change into a suit for the day. As I walk into the mansion, Lobo comes bounding up to greet me but seems to pull himself short once he notices that I am alone. “Missing her already boy?” “Woof.” He seems to snort at me and then walks away, I chuckle at his behaviour. It seems that I have not only lost my heart to her but my dog’s loyalty as well. I find I am less upset about that than I would have been if it was my ex-wife. I quickly change and while I am fixing my cufflinks, I receive a call from Ellis. “I am about to head into the office now.” “Alright but I’m calling to warn you, Rita is here with her lawyers. I’m sorry, Grant, I couldn’t keep her out.” I frown wondering what she could possibly want but instead of worrying about it, I choose to handle it when I get there.

I smile and he visibly shrinks from seeing it because it is not the usual smile I give to Angel. This is full of cold contempt and satisfaction that I will finally be able to prevent her from contacting me for personal reasons. “She was issued with a restraining order stopping her from contacting me or Angel.” “Bloody hell! I didn’t think you would go that far.” “She is a threat to Angel, and I will not allow her to cause trouble.” Ellis nods and smiles knowingly since he has seen my ruthless side and knows how far I will go when I care deeply about something. I cut my own father off when his agenda threatened mine, although that was mutual on both our parts because he threatened me first, I just acted before he did. I spend the rest of the day working and attending meetings to check the progress on the developments of my new builds as well as the growth of the current chains. Everyth

It's been a week since I asked Grant for space and since John and Beth revealed who my parents were and who I would've been. I’ve been struggling with it so much that the longer I wait the harder it is becoming to say anything. I should’ve told Grant about it the night he turned up with that beautiful purple and red bouquet. I was so overwhelmed by his declaration that I forgot about everything else that was playing on my mind. Unfortunately, two days later he phoned to inform me that he was having to travel for business and would be gone for five days. Today makes day four and although I have assured him each time, he phones me that I am alright, I have been afraid to be alone here in my flat. Anytime I hear someone in the hall I become jumpy and nervous. Jack and Anya have both been checking in as well, but it hasn’t helped. To try and take my mind off of it I have been trying to focus on my online degree, thankfull

The last five days have been utter torture. I never thought I would need the companionship of another human being as much as I crave being with Angela. I used to look forward to my trips to the other sites because it would give me a break from the constant stresses at home. Living with Rita was a complete nightmare. When she wasn’t out burning a hole in my bank account, she was home complaining about how I refused to hire maids to work in the mansion and how she was forced to cook and clean. I knew when I married her that she was used to having everything done for her because that is how her father ran his home. It is also how my father ran ours and it became even more obvious how much we relied on the cook and other staff after mother died and father was never around anymore. I practically raised my younger brother after that and yet he still chose to follow our father and work for him at his company after he graduated from universit

I am up watching the sun rise as Grant, Ellis, Anya, Jack, and Simon are all sleeping in chairs around the room. My chair is directly beside Tom and Grant is beside me. Ellis and Anya are in one corner with Anya asleep on Ellis’ lap, likewise the same for Jack and Simon but Jack is sleeping on Simon. I turn from the window to look at Tom and notice his eyes moving. As I watch him, he gradually wakes, and I gasp causing him to look toward me. He smiles seeing me and tears of relief gather in my eyes. “Tom! You’re awake!” I whisper shout so that I don’t make too much noise, but my excitement and relief are clear which makes him chuckle. I ring the bell for the nurse and begin fussing over him while we wait. He playfully bats my hand away while I try to tuck his blankets in, and we are having a mini battle when the nurse finally enters. She completes her checks and then advises that she is going to fetch the doctor to come to assess him. She closes the door too loudly and it shocks t
