Christopher The following morning, as the sun rose on a new day, I knew that we had to face the challenges ahead. Despite the pain and turmoil, I was determined to support Kelvin through the legal process, ensuring he had the best lawyer to represent him.I made the necessary preparations, contacting the most reputable lawyers I could find and arranging meetings to discuss Kelvin's case. While it was difficult to navigate the legal complexities, I knew that giving Kelvin a fair chance was essential.In the midst of the preparations, I couldn't shake off the overwhelming sadness that engulfed our home. Kate was packing her belongings, preparing to move out. The sight of her gathering her things tore at my heart, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of desperation to make things right.As she passed by me, carrying a box filled with her belongings, I reached out to stop her gently. "Kate, please, let's talk," I pleaded, my voice filled with emotion.She looked at me, her eyes reflectin
As the days passed, the rumors surrounding Kelvin's case began to circulate, and I could feel the impact it was having on my company. The whispers of scandal and disgrace were like poison, spreading rapidly and tarnishing the reputation of the business I had worked so hard to build.One morning, as I sat in my office trying to focus on work, Darren approached me with a grave expression on his face. "Chris, we need to talk," he said, his voice serious.I gestured for him to take a seat, already sensing the weight of his words. "What's going on, Darren?" I asked, bracing myself for whatever news he had to share."There are rumors going around about Kelvin's case," he began cautiously. "People are connecting the dots, and they're starting to associate his actions with our company. It's already affecting our reputation, and clients are expressing concerns."My heart sank at his words. I knew that the situation was delicate, but hearing it spelled out like this was disheartening. I had alw
As I was discharged from the hospital, Beverly and Chris were by my side, supporting me every step of the way. The weight of the challenging times had lifted, and I felt a renewed sense of hope and gratitude.Beverly couldn't contain her happiness as we arrived home. "I'm so glad everything has died down," she exclaimed. "All those rumors have been debunked, and people now understand the truth.""I'm thankful for your support and understanding," I said, giving her a warm hug. "You've been there for me through thick and thin, and I couldn't have asked for a better friend."Chris smiled, chiming in, "Yes, thank you, Beverly. Your friendship has meant the world to both of us. We're truly grateful for everything you've done."As we settled into the living room, to our surprise, Beverly's fiancé walked in. He had a smile that reached from ear to ear, and he seemed eager to share something special."Beverly," he said, taking her hand in his, "I've watched you be a pillar of support for Kate
As the days passed, my pregnancy progressed, and the time for our little one's arrival drew near. Chris and I eagerly prepared for the big day, attending birthing classes together and making sure everything was ready for the baby's arrival.One evening, as we were having dinner at home, I felt a sudden, sharp pain in my abdomen. I winced and placed a hand on my belly, feeling a rush of excitement and nervousness."Chris, I think... I think it's happening," I said, trying to catch my breath.Chris's eyes widened, and he immediately jumped into action. "Okay, okay, let's get you to the hospital," he said, helping me up from my chair.We hurriedly grabbed the hospital bag we had prepared and made our way to the car. Chris drove carefully but with a sense of urgency, knowing that our baby was on the way.As we arrived at the hospital, the contractions became more intense, and I clung to Chris's hand for support. He stayed by my side every step of the way, offering words of encouragement a
Christopher"Goodbye, sir!" That is the second time I heard that, and it still does not make sense to me. "Sir!" Rita said again, but it sounded more like yelling. I lifted my left hand from my table to check the time from my Graff Diamond's Hallucination wristwatch. "It's 3:15 pm," I asked, surprised she was leaving that early. "It is Friday, sir," Rita responded with a frown boldly engraved on her face. She has to remind me all the time. "Oh! It's Friday!" I hate Fridays. It reminds me of how miserable my life is outside work. I will have to endure the horrible weekend again until I resume living on Monday morning. "I'm leaving, sir," The tiny voice echoes continuously in my ears. I wonder why she still works with me if she hates me so much already. I don't blame her. I would hate myself if I were in her shoes. This is the hundred and one times I would be ignoring her. And sometimes, it is intentional. "And what did we say about knocking, Rita?" I stared directly into he
I got home late as usual, but this Friday night, I was extremely tired. My assistant had prepared a warm bath for me before he left. As long as I have him in my life, I do not need a woman. Ever since his wife was delivered of a baby boy, I released him earlier than before. I am a workaholic, but he is sure not. With the towel wrapped around my waist and my hair dripping with water, I walked over to the center table in my room. My phone had been ringing before I entered the bathroom. I knew who it was, so I did not care to check. It is Friday night, and I should be out with the boys – men, actually. I would be, anyways. They were not calling because they wanted me there. I am a fun killer, so they say. I believe so too. They need me there. They need my money. Who would pay for all the expensive alcohol, the exclusive space at the five stars club, and the prostitutes they take home without feeling it in his account: no other person but me. I can not deny them that benefit. Even t
A special Friday NightI got to the club five minutes earlier. I was surprised. My friends are not waiting for me at the bar as usual. Was I too early? I called one of them – the closest to me to know their whereabouts. "What?" One has paid for the pass, and they are waiting for me in the club. First of its kind. He got a new car, and to celebrate it, the bills this Friday is on him. Not all the bills, though. A special Friday night, indeed! It made me smile. It has been a long time since I smiled outside my office. I was still smiling, waving my key as I walked to the exclusive room. That is when I saw her! She's got long black hair almost reaching her waist. She was wearing the smallest pair of cut jeans short, a white shirt, a cowboy hat, and brown leather boots. The most beautiful woman I have ever met or maybe noticed. She is not really dancing yet, but I knew she was a stripper. We have them around every Friday night. One of the things we get for paying for the VIP ro
My First TimeAs I stood at the door waiting to be let in, several thoughts crossed my mind. I knew what I was doing. I knew it was my cue to leave the club, but I did not. I have never felt this way before. I have never gone after a woman before. I turned back to leave but realized the number of eyes on me. "What the hell is wrong with these men," I thought. I should go in there and have a conversation with the girl. A couple of dollars would do. It will put these men off my back, and I'm sure my friends would change their minds about my impotence.The door opened, and a bouncer let me in. I quickly scan through the room. There is a bed, not large but big enough for people to get smashed. The girl is on the edge of the bed. She lay down flat on the bed, with her legs facing me; she lifted both her legs high up in the air and opened them slowly as wide as they could go. Her hands held her thighs open. She put her feet flat on the bed, so now her knees were bent, but her legs were st
