The next morning, Ryan was the first to wake, as he propped his eyes wide opened. His head was banging badly, his body was hurt also, what had happened to him last night? He wondered as he made to stand up, he felt something pressing on him and the hot breath fanning on him. "Shannon!" His heart raced wildly just at the mention of her name. She was back? He thought as she suddenly recalled her going missing yesterday or was he just hallucinating? He thought. He touched her to feel she was real and not kind of imagination, he gently placed her on the bed and then he stood up ,his body aching badly as he dragged his feet to the restroom. He came out few minutes time, all washed and was looking clean, he was at least feeling better than before. He had to prepare for work, glancing at the Sleeping Shannon, they needed to talk and he wouldn't want to wake her up. He left shortly after he was done, brushing her lips slightly with his as he left . He had to withdrew the case f
Shannon gasped as she stared at him keenly, narrowing her gaze at him as she pinched the bridge of her nose. "What do you say? " She wanted to be sure that she had actually heard the actual words. "Are you premenstrual?" He asked again like there was nothing wrong in what he'd had just asked, he casted her a quick glance as he takes off his shirt. Shannon should have taken the hint and left as she saw him taking off his shirt, but she was just to damn upset and stubborn that she couldn't leave without putting a fight. "What does my anger has to do with being premenstrual?" She fired at him, she never expected him to be the type of man that classified women anger as a result of their hormones. "I heard ladies tends to get upset at nothing just to piss a guy off when they are premenstrual!" He expl like some naive kid in school. Shannon had wanted to chuckled, where the hell did he heard that from, she thought "Well, that is a fallacy " She stated, her eyes fluttered as s
When Ryan got to her destination, he dropped her off, the his bodyguard continued as he drove to the location Ryan had mentioned. When they arrived, Ryan walked inside the building and straight inside the ward, his Step mother and brother was already there waiting outside. He casted them a Stern glare, "What happened to him?" He queried. "We don't know, we were just aware after his guard raised an alarm that he had passed out" Elizabeth spoke. Ryan scoffed as he looked down at her, " I thought your job as a full-time mistress was to take care of your Master father's and not to just launder their wealth " Ryan berated her. "Forgive me, Ryan!" She apologized as she bowed her head. Ryan was furious as he grabbed her by the jaw, "Don't you dare call me that woman, you seems to have forgotten your position in the house" He was mad and seething with anger. His hatred for this woman knew no bound. Reuben who was standing close to his mother and was witnessin all that was happeni
Grand pa Lancaster stood up after everyone has gone out, he sighed as he shifted the hospital uniform they'd had worn him. It was lighter and he'd could catch cold easily. He'd had watched all those drama that was displayed right in front of him and he'd was lying there trying to suppress the laughter that was about escaping his lips. He just can't wait for two days in over so he can at least return back home. ** Shannon held with her , her resignation letter in her hands, she'd had thought of submitting that earlier because when she she came, Ryan wasn't yet on seat, that was very unusual of him. She had been thinking over the days, and had finally come to a conclusion that she have to leave the Lancaster empire in order for her to build and continues her father's own. With her eyes snapped shut, she inhaled briefly then exhale equally, observing the therapy for like three minutes. However, she did the sign of the cross before opening the door to his
Ryan eyes furrowed as if he was trying to recollect something, then he spoke. "Make me the highest share holder in the company!" He spoke as he hung up the call. Ryan glanced at the GPS tracker, it was exactly where he had assumed it to be, this was a mystery he had to unravel. Roy call back again, five minutes later. "Hello Boss, I just bought the shares now, I heard they would be having their stake holders meeting by tomorrow, the chairman heiress would be returning from schooling in abroad to take over the position of her father" He informed him. "That's all for now, I would unravel the rest information myself, put your eyes on my step brother, I'm suspecting he has something rolling up in his sleeve!" Ryan ordered then he hang up. With all the information, he had garnered, Ryan set to work as he started searching for possible clues. ** "You have to get ready for your appearance tomorrow, the chairman would formally introduce you to the Stakeholders a
He was as those long legs marched down to where they were gathered in the board meeting room. "Shannon?" What was she doing there? He thought to himself, but he kept his cool.Ben suddenly exchanged a knowing glare with him and he just simply shrugged. He had raised his suspicion right from when he had tracked the GPS he had inputed in her wrist watch, she had actually came down to this place after she left and resigned at his company. He had thought that she'd would be working there as perhaps a Secretary, but to find out that she was the Chairman daughter was shocking. ***Shannon walked elegantly as she was called upon, her eyes was focused on her father as she walked with Bryan by her side. She suddenly stopped when she got to her Father's place, she greeted the audience and addressed herself as Ms Shannon Lincoln. "Hello everyone, I'm very excited to be here and I most importantly thanking my father for giving me the chance to prove myself to the world t
Shannon had just came back from work, as it was her first day at work, it had been very tiring for her and she needed to rest. Nana had prepared Pasta and she was already digging into her food when she heard her phone rang. Staring at the caller , her heart gave a loud beat, " Ryan?" She was petrified "Hello!" She greeted. "Girlfriend?" She heard him say. "Damn! She had left his company, so why was he calling again? She was beyond shocked. " What do you want?" She was strict and plain. "That Is not a friendly way of greeting your boyfriend!" He taunted her. Shannon was speechless, " I quit working for you , Ryan. Why are you disturbing me?" She called him Ryan for the first time. "You quitted your job as my Secretary not as my girlfriend!" He reminded her. "I quit from both then!" She said . " Why don't you come out and say that to my face?" He spoke. Shannon became apprehensive as she stood up and then walked to her window, peering through it, she found his
Shannon creased her eyebrow, she was on pill, and beside why was he suddenly asking for a baby, he'd had told her that he never wanted a baby. She was still for some minutes and the he stood up from her body as he arranged his clothes then he helped her in fixing her bra and clothes too. " Discard what I said earlier about having a baby" Ryan said, he'd was secretly hoping that she would be the one to carry his heir. " Are you alright?" He asked her after some time, "Yeah, I'm fine!" Shannon replied, the atmosphere had become so awkward that Shannon was fearing, should she tell him that he have a son already? How would he fell? Many thoughts keep ringing in her head. "My grand father is about to die !" He stated after some time. Shannon could not help but feel sad, " I'm so sorry !" SHe replied him. . " There is nothing to be sorry about, he is going to die anyway " He spoke coldly as though death isn't much of a big deal. " He requested for an heir, that's why
