I yawned loudly, still feeling sleepy, rolling over the bed to reach for my phone.
1:30PM?!
I realized I was still in Faith's room so I screamed, "Faith!"
She ran out of the bathroom, drying her hand on her skirt. "Is there any problem?"
"Why didn't you wake me up?!"
"I'm so sorry for not waking you up. We both watched a lot of movies till it was past midnight and I thought you needed to sleep more."
I frowned at her for a while then sighed after noticing the worry on her face. "I'm sorry for yelling at you. It's not your fault. I'll have a bath. Please bring my clothes from my hotel ro
{Quick A/N: Hi, everyone. There'd be a story about Lila and Nikita in this story because they won the voting section, of the secondary characters' story to talk about, in my F'B group: Author Gift Odulesi (Gift's readers) }~ LILA ~"Bye, Mom." I gave her a hug."Bye, have a nice day." Mom beamed."Hey, you'll drive me to work, I'm too tired to drive." Nikita said."Sure, whatever." I shrugged.Oh, if you're wondering: yes, Nikita slept over at Mom's house too, again.It was kinda strange that we were finally getting along after so man
I quickly let go of his hands, glancing everywhere else except him. My heart began to throb fast. This time, it wasn't due to Hames kissing me or touching me but because I felt my ears were playing tricks on me."Uh… Er…" how could I be so stupid to accept such a promise that easily? I should've known I couldn't trust Hames with something like this. Making a promise to him?I finally gained the courage to lock my eyes with his, catching his gaze of amusement."Are you really sweating over this? The Air conditioner is on," he touched my forehead with two of his fingers, shaking his head."Hames, this— I can't—your request…" I really didn't know what to say. Why was h
~ IMOGEN ~"Oh, yeah. That's so good, baby … yeah… uh…" I moaned, enjoying the pleasure Hames was giving me.He stopped all of a sudden, tilting his head. "Dear wife, it's just a massage. You're making dirty sounds over a simple massage. Anyone who heard you from outside might think something else is happening."Shut up, ignore the sound and resume massaging me with those magical hands of yours, dear husband." I turned around, lifting my shirt a bit. "Give my tummy a nice massage, then return to my back.""Wow, the mighty CEO of HamIX International is giving someone a massage for free, when there are massueues or physiotherapists I can call to come give you a massage."
I re-read the message multiple times for it to sink into my head. Someone wanted to kill my Hames? Oh God. Where on Earth was he? I quickly called his phone. He answered the call almost immediately. "Hello?" He sounded so tired. "Where are you?" I scrunched my face in worry. The sound of the door opening distracted me. "I'm right here." He said. I ended the call and threw the phone to the bed, sprinted to him, pulled him in then locked the door. "We have to leave immediately." &nbs
"What? Who the hell is this?" I exhaled in fear, trying to call the person again but it wasn't possible.My head started throbbing, my hands began to quiver, my heart left my body completely due to its excessive palpitation."H—Hames? Dead? Widow?" I huffed, shaking my head. "No way!" I bounced to my feet and ran out of the room while calling Hames' phone again, but it was still switched off.The thought that Hames was dead struck me so bad and tears immediately started rolling down my face really fast. I was going breathless and feeling like I was about to faint.I ran to Faith's room, banging my fists on the door really hard.In a
"Amanda?" He repeated."Yes. I'm sure she's behind this. I don't trust that crazy friend of yours." I nodded. "She's the only one I can suspect right now."Hames laughed. "You must be mistaken. I'm certain Amanda wouldn't do anything as stupid as this.""Oh, really?" I scoffed. "She's a devil in disguise. Didn't you see how she was smiling while you were around but the second you left, she revealed her demon to me, claiming to love you and I have to stay away."He ended his laughter. "Okay, I agree Amanda might be crazy sometimes but I know she can't be behind this.""How can you be certain?" I glowered, hating the stupid trust he had for
"Are you out of your mind?" I hollered."I should be asking you that. You're shirtless." He frowned and picked my shirt from the floor."I could've caught the devil. Shit!""Without a shirt? In the presence of our employees? You're crazy." He wore my shirt over my body.I sighed. "Sorry, I was only interested in catching her and forgot that another crazy person made me shirtless.""Another crazy person? Seriously?" He rolled his eyes, buttoning my shirt for me. I could do that on my own but what was the point in arguing?"We should get going."
"Who is Samantha?" I asked again, soaked in a pool of worry."I trusted you to not mention her name. Please leave." Hames drew his lips into a snarl."So you're sending me out of your house? Wow." Amamda snorted, glared at him from head to toe then angrily left the terrace."Hames, tell me who Samantha is right now." I ordered.He gazed at me, anger was still burning in his eyes. Without another word, he walked away and left the terrace, letting my mouth drop to the ground.I tried to let the fact that he was hiding a woman's identity sink into my head before leaving the terrace too.
