Romeo looked away. If only she knew how much of a restraint he was applying to keep himself from dragging her by her hair like Leah did to Pamela and throw her out through the window. "Calm down bitch. We need to talk first and come to an agreement" Romeo declared. He called her a bitch and Miranda was not in the least annoyed. "Make it snappy dude. I'm dripping wet already. I thought we would take the first dose before talking business. But if that's how you want it, make it snappy" Miranda complained. Motherfucker! Romeo said within him. Dripping wet? If he wants to sleep with a woman, he has a beautiful woman at home that he loves. Not bitches like her. "Yes. We talk business first. In every partnership, there would be an agreement first before appexing a signature. So tell me, what exactly do you want me to do for you?" Romeo asked, glaring at her with a poker face. "It's simple. Support me to remain at Louis' side. Everything I say, rather than cont
Clarion complexion turned purple in fury. How dare Tarvan describe her as a barren woman? How dare he say such words to her? "Are you feeling upset that I said that? I worked hard, but you couldn't conceive. It wasn't my fault that we couldn't have more children, it was yours. You are suddenly infertile. Now you tell me that my granddaughter should be an heir simply because she is Pamela. If she was the daughter of my son, I would Consider it. But she was born by a daughter. I have concubines now and I am working hard to get them pregnant and get an heir from them. So just enjoy the position of a queen while it lasts. Do you understand me, Clarion?" Tarvan bellowed. Clarion just glared at her husband. She couldn't believe a time would come when Tarvan would say such words to her. But the day finally came. "You said I am Barren?" Clarion asked, the word 'barren' kept resounding in her head as if she's never heard it being used for a woman. "Yes. You are
Lucas was busy in the office when a certain person knocked on his door. "The door is open," he said. When the door opened, it was Nelly that came in. She looked calm and remorseful, standing before Lucas. It's been months but it seemed to her like yesterday. She had betrayed him. She was with Phil and never thought she would fall apart with him. Now, she wants Lucas back and it doesn't seem as if he noticed her again. Lucas raised his head and saw Nelly. He squinted and offered a seat "Take a seat" he said, capping his pen and placing it aside. He folded his arms and glanced at her "You want to see him?" Lucas asked. He got the answer within himself. Of course she wants to see him, otherwise what would she be doing in his office? Nelly nodded. She wanted to talk but it seemed the words got choked in her throat. She glanced at her fingers and fiddled with it. "Okay. I'm with you" Lucas said in a tone of impatience. He doesn't have time to sit and face a w
Louis was dazed. He glared at Miranda. He is going to be a father. Does it mean…he glanced at her and looked down to her belly to the extent he could see from the other end of the dinning table. "I am two months pregnant honey. You and I are finally going to be parents" Miranda Alvan explained. She caressed her belly and smiled. Louis' lips parted to reveal a beautiful smile with a diastema. He was so happy. He would be a father soon. He looked forward to a day like this. "Come over here" Louis declared and Miranda did. They both walked away from the dining table and Louis placed his hand on Miranda's belly. As if that is not enough,he kneeled before Miranda and caressed her belly more. Making his eye level the same as her belly. "My baby" he mumbled, he is happy. No one can explain just how excited he was. Finally, he is going to be a father. Miranda caressed Louis' hair and bent over, kissing his temple. It was like a part of Louis' heart suddenly learnt
Ellis saw her sprang up in surprise. Oh, he hadn't told her what happened in the office a few weeks ago. It appeared she would be more shocked than he was that day. "You mean to say that Louis and Miranda are…" Leah trailed off. That's not part of the deal. Miranda Alvan is taking advantage of her son. "None of us believed it until Pamela dashed into the office right before Romeo and I and accused Louis of cheating on her with Miranda. I wanted to defend Louis. I tried to convince her that she's thinking too much. Louis wouldn't do that but it didn't help because Louis lashed at her and told her to go to hell. He even went physical with Pamela that Romeo and I had to come to her rescue. Things had fallen apart between them. I called Louis aside to ask him and he confirmed it. I'm just worried that things would get out of hand if Miranda Alvan still remains by his side. I don't know what to do now, Leah," Ellis explained. Leah swallowed hard. Why would Miran
Rather than answer him, Pamela started sobbing aloud. She couldn't control her emotions. She couldn't calm herself down and answer. Lucas heard her sobbing aloud and was dazed. What's happening? Pamela is sobbing? "Are you alright, Pam?" He asked. He sometimes shortens her name and calls her by the first three letters. But Pamela hung up, not wanting to trouble anyone with her predicament. Lucas tried calling her back but Pamela wouldn't answer her phone. He then called Alice. Seeing the one who was calling was Lucas, Alice felt her belly sweet. But when she answered the phone, Lucas' worried tone asked her a question immediately "Have you heard from Pamela today or called her?" He asked,not bothering to say hello first. "No. I just returned from a night call. What happened? You can't reach her?" Alice replied, becoming uneasy as well. "I called her to inform her of the lunch we three will be having. But she was sobbing profusely. Something wasn't right and
Miranda snorted and hissed between gritted teeth. What nonsense is this woman saying? How dare she ask her such a question? What does she take her for, a fool? How can she stay by the side of such a cute handsome dude and not get horny to have sex with him? After all, she was the one who told her to make him believe they've been together for a while and she's his fiance. How can she not sleep with her fiance? She's human after all and she has blood in her veins. If she's acting as Louis' fiance, she could as well act it out to perfection by keeping her body warm with Louis' help. What had she done wrong then, or in what way did she exploit her own fiance? But she understood what was happening. This is Romeo's signature. She can recognise it from Leah's words. Romeo dares to contradict her and goes to Leah to make reports. She would ensure she sees that Romeo is gone far away from them. She won't give him a chance to be by Louis' side at all. She w
His words made Pamela glance at him with tears. He had told her he couldn't make babies. He is sterile and this might indeed be a chance for him to know what it's like. Pamela sniffled and covered her mouth with her palm. This world is not a balanced place. Someone couldn't make a baby but was eager to stay by the side of a pregnant woman and act as a stand-in father While someone else who owned the baby is frolicking around with another woman. Human nature and life itself is dynamic. Alice felt something was odd in Lucas' words. There is something that she hadn't known. And she feels like she's having a crush on him. She must find out. Seeing that Pamela wasn't responding, Lucas was still worried, he held Pamela's two hands and said "You remember something I told you before, right? I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if I can't do anything to stop you from aborting this baby. This is something I longed for, I can't allow you hurt this child" Pamela nod
