All through work, Henry found it hard to focus. First, it was the weird looks some of the board members, including Mr. Luther, kept giving him. At first, he found it odd because they were staring at him like they knew something he didn't but after a while, Henry realized that it was mainly because they weren't expecting to see him at work until the following week. He couldn't blame them though, because he too had not been expecting to resume work so his mind wasn't really into it. However, they roped him in and gave him an update of how things had been running.
During the meeting, Henry caught his father's best friend looking at him in annoyance and he almost couldn't stop himself from taunting the man with an outstretched tongue. So, he gave him a mischievous smile instead and watched as he frowned in annoyance before turning back to listen to the meeting. For all his efforts at trying to focus in the work of the day, he found himself thinking about the beautif
Gina slowly counted the hours till she could get out of the house and go out with Ken. It wasn't like she was missing him or anything, but she felt a bit locked up and besides, Henry would soon be home. The events of last night continued to replay in her head and the more she thought about it, the more she realized that maybe she was in the wrong for blantantly rejecting his gifts. At that time, she was still raw from the eventful weekend they had and doubts had started to creep into her mind. So, accusing him again seemed like the easiest thing to do.In the middle of her thoughts, a call came in from Ken and she slowly moved towards the window where she saw his car waiting outside. She smiled and was about to start going downstairs when she looked ahead and saw one of Henry's guards on a phone call. The first thing on her mind was that he was reaching out to her husband, and she suddenly began to feel nervous. If she went ahead with the date, Henry might find them and get upset or m
When Ken dropped her off half an hour later, they barely exchanged the words before he bid her a goodnight and drove away from her driveway. Gina placed her balance on the one hand crutch, trying to work out the real reason for her refusal. It wasn't like she really put so much importance of the contract marriage and its rules, because there were certain ways to move past it and besides, it stated they could have affairs with other people. Gina knew she had been using that line for quite a while but at the moment, she didn't care. It was her only way of defending herself with her complex relationship with Ken.However, that didn't mean she would want to go back to Ken after he cheated on her, or rather, used her to cheat on his wife. Going back to an ex was something she never did, especially in a situation like this. As she stepped into the house though, she realized that the true reason for not talking for Ken's charms was because of Henry. Over time and even
Gina's heart raced as Henry leaned in closer. His lips were so close to hers that she could feel his warm breath on her face. She closed her eyes and parted her lips, ready to feel his kiss. Henry reached out and gently touched Gina's face, caressing her cheek with his thumb. She closed her eyes, her heart racing as his hand moved down her neck and around her shoulders. She leaned in, her lips quivering as she waited for his kiss.Henry didn't disappoint. His lips met hers, soft and tender as he moved in closer. Gina sighed, her body melting against his as the kiss deepened. His tongue explored her mouth as his hands moved up and down her back, pulling her even closer. Henry's lips were soft and gentle as they moved over hers. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer, deepening the kiss. Gina felt her heart flutter as his tongue explored her mouth.Gina wrapped her arms around his neck, wanting the moment to last forever. She felt like she was floating away on a clou
Gina wrapped the sheets around herself one more time, trying to get comfortable as she heard the far away alarm ringing in her head. Some part of her knew it was time to get up but she didn't want to just yet. Maybe five or ten more minutes, and she would set about her day. Instantly, she remembered that she was still a stay at home wife, so she settled down further into the bed and started to go back to sleep when she recalled the events of last night. For the first time, Henry showed his desire for her and somehow, they ended up having a steamy session together.A part of her felt ashamed for being too easy and allowing him have his way when he insulted her and would probably do more if given the chance. However, the greater part of her was happy and quite satisfied. It was nearly obvious that he was holding back form being with her, but whether or not she was just a way to keep himself together was what she didn't know. With those conflicting feelings in mind
When Henry woke up the next morning, he was amazed to find that his hand was occupied by something. Still in the throes of sleep, it felt like a deja vu moment and he instantly recalled how he got out of bed that morning in the resort and found his wife sleeping next to him. With that in mind, he turned to his side and once again, saw his wife sleeping peacefully. She was fully turned to face him and as he noticed the bed sheets drawn up to her neck, he remembered the events of last night. He groaned in excitement and smiled at her tracing the contours of her face with his eyes. He couldn't help but remember the events of last night, especially how receptive she was to his advances. Try hard as he may, he could no longer remember what started the makeout session between them. All he knew was that one minute they were fighting, and the next, he was thrusting into her like he had never done before. Gina brought out something different in him, and it both excited and scared him. Now tha
Henry's drive to his family house was nothing short of exciting. From the unexplainable traffic jam that held him in one spot for close to thirty minutes to the multimillion dollar investment being held the next day to the thoughts of his mother finally handing him the company, his mind was filled with a lot of things. Luckily for him, he was able to get to his mother before she placed another call to him. After the fifth call, he could sense she was getting agitated and just wanted everything to be over with. That was the same thing he desired, especially as the fact that he left Gina all alone constantly hung over him.Still, he comported himself when he got to the building that housed him for two decades, before he decided to move out and make a name for himself. As he walked up the steps leading to the ornate door, he couldn't help but recall the argument he had with his parents over his decision to leave. Like any other person would, they argued about his s
By the time Henry got home, Gina had already packed her bags and was just waiting for him to get back so she could tell him about her lack of interest in the marriage. She no longer wanted to be part of the sham they were playing and whatever he wanted to do after that wouldn't be her business. After waking up to see his annoying note, Gina spent the day cursing herself for falling for a man who didn't see her worth, right before she went to his room in search of the contract paper. They were several copies in her room, but surely they had to be an original.Destroying that particular one wouldn't do anything, except make her feel a little bit better and that was what she was counting on. After searching for over an hour and trying hard not to scatter the room or make Henry aware she searched his room without permission, she finally found it in a file inside one of his secret storages. Not that they were secret anymore, but they probably would become that again
Gina was just as shocked to see Ken. When she packed her bags and decided to leave Henry's house that afternoon, she wasn't expecting her ex boyfriend to show up. There had been no communication between them after he tried to kiss her so she couldn't really understand why he was at the house. More so, it was kind of weird for him to see that she and Henry were having troubles in their relationship and just for show, she actually had the mind to just run up and give her husband a hug. She was that uncomfortable with having Ken around, but either he didn't notice that or was just trying to fool around because a smile broke into his face. "Are you leaving him already? After just one month of marriage?" Ken asked, hut it sounded more like he was mocking her. Instantly, she remembered when she was leaving his house amidst tears after catching him cheating and he told her in a fit of rage that she would never find somebody who wanted her more than he did. During their relationship, he alwa
