Chapter 62TESSAI got to the company and met reporters with cameras around the company. I was confused but I did not who to ask what exactly was going on.The security guards were trying to stop them from coming any closer. I went inside the company and it was so disorganized.The employees were moving here and there while talking amongst themselves in whispers.Just then, Tacha came running toward me."Guess what?" She screamed as she kept running toward me. I even feared that she might she fall down."Take it easy Tacha." I told her as she finally got to where I was standing.She held her chest and was breathing heavily. She tried to calm down and catch her breathe and finally, she was calm."What is it? What happened?" I asked her."It's everywhere on the internet and even the news and that is why the reporters are outside," She said."What is it about?" I asked her. I was starting to get anxious and curious."Sir Caden and his wife are on a contract marriage and they are going to
Chapter 63LESLIEI got to the office, Caden's office actually as I decided to move in and stay in there like I was supposed to do.Caden was in and I'm was glad, I could not face him just yet. I went straight to my desk and brought out my phone from my handbag.With trembling hands, I dialed mom's number. It kept ringing and ringing but there was no answer.I paced around the office with my hand on my forehead as I kept on trying mom's number but there still was no answer.I placed my hand on my waist as I kept pacing around.And for the hundredth time, mom finally picked up the call and I breathed out a sigh of relief."Hello, mom? A—" I was saying but mom loud and angry voice cut me short."What have you done Leslie? Do you have any idea what you have done to your sister? If anything happens to Lauren, it would be your fault!" Mom yelled angrily at me and before I could even say anything, she ended the call.After the call with mom, I could not help but feel bothered and guilty. W
Chapter 64CADEN"Are you okay? What is it?" I quickly ran up to Lauren when I saw her walk into the office as if she had just seen a ghost.She looked completely lost and tired. She looked like she was about to cry as her eyes were glistening in tears. It made my heart break. What could possibly be wrong with her?After the show we both put outside in front of the reporters and after our little argument in the elevator, I did not see Lauren again. So, I did not know what exactly was wrong with her.Did she really hate the kiss between us? Was it that bad?Lauren staggered weakly but I was quick to hold her hand and prevent her from falling. I was surprised that she did not push me away but instead, she held onto me tighter and it made me dance happily within myself.I helped Lauren to desk and made her sit down. I went to my own desk and came back with a bottle of water. I opened it and made her drink from it.She darted her eyes from me to the bottle water. I thought she was not goi
Chapter 65LAURENMom's face was pale too and she had dried tears on her cheeks. It looked like she has been crying."Mom?" I called her with a shaky voice."Yes, yes baby. Tell me what you want." She answered almost immediately.I could no longer hold the tears and they kept pouring out uncontrollably."Please do not cry Lauren." Mom consoled me but I only cried harder. She hugged me gently and stroke my hair affectionately."It was a bad idea mom, it was a bad idea to let Leslie take over and pretend to be me in my marriage. I hate it now mom, I hate it. I want to go back home." I wailed uncontrollably that I had running nose.My head hurt even more and my eyes felt really tired. I had not regained my strength and I was still weak."I'm sorry, I'm sorry Lauren..." Mom kept apologizing as she stroked my hair affectionately.There was a soft knock on the door and I was not fast enough to wipe my tears before the doctor walked in.With his countenance, I could tell that something was w
Chapter 66CADENI hit my fist angrily on the table and walked out of the office. I noticed Lauren's gaze on me as I left.I headed straight to meet Tessa in the models room. She was having a shoot today and I'm pretty sure that she was through.I got to the door and knocked gently on it but there was no response. Maybe nobody was inside? I knocked again."Who is that?" I heard Tessa's reply from within and I took in a deep breath."It's Caden." I replied coldly. I made sure I had a mean look on my face that would make her know that I was not joking. That would make her shiver in fear."Come in." She sounded excited.I walked in and my jaw dropped in shock. I quickly closed my eyes and turned away from her.Tessa was naked. She had on just her bra that barely covered her boobs and a tiny pant.I heard her chuckle lightly."Don't be like that Caden." I could feel her presence so close to me but I moved forward.Since my eyes were closed, I did not see her next movement coming.I felt
Chapter 67CADEN"That's enough Lauren, you should let go of her hair. You do not want to make her go bald." I told Lauren but she flashed me a deadly glare and I quickly took my gaze to the ceiling in fear."That's exactly what I want; to make her go bald. Once she is bad, she would not have the guts to seduce you anymore. She would not even show her face to you and she would leave the company too," Lauren said angrily. I was speechless.I did not know Lauren had this side of you.But I wanted to understand this action of hers.Is Lauren seriously jealous right now? This was a first.Tessa suddenly got a hold of Lauren's hair and she pulled Lauren by the hair roughly too.Lauren groaned too but tightened her grip more on Tessa's hair and Tessa did the same thing."You have to stop them Caden, at this rate, they might make each other go bald." Chester told me."You are right." I sighed.I got to where they were and tried to pull each other but Lauren mistakenly hit me on my nose.I gr
Chapter 68 TESSA I gritted my teeth in anger and destroyed the mirror and threw the chairs angrily around the room. I literally turned the room upside down. How could that bitch do this to me? I held my pulled hair in my hand and seethed even more in anger. Lauren succeeded in pulling a few of my hair out and it made me so angry that I felt like going to pull out all her hairs too. I never knew she could be that wild and I was not expecting her to take sides with Caden even after seeing me half naked and Caden in the room with me too. And when Caden told me not to bother him any longer, it made me even more angry. He doesn't have the right to tell me to stay away from him because I will not do that and I do not intend to do so. I'm going to still try all it takes to finally be able to win Caden, I will make him fall in love with me. I know I can do it because I'm pretty, popular and everything a man would need in a woman. It will only take a matter of time before he will fal
Chapter 69LAURENThe doctor prescribed a drug for me and told the nurse that I could home after I finish my drip.I could not stop smiling, I was grinning from ear to ear. When the doctor and the nurses left, I turned properly to look at mom."Your eyes are suddenly sparkling. And your face colour has changed too. Is it because of the news The doctor broke to us?" Mom asked with a smile.I touched my cheeks and I could feel the hotness. I smiled and nodded my head shyly like a teenager in love."I'm really happy mom. I can finally now have my surgery and go home. Leslie would not have to fill in for me anymore and it will not be quick for Caden to fall in love with her.I will recover very early after the sugery so that I can go back after the sugery." I stated.I tucked in few loose strands of my hair on my face behind my ear.Mom smiled and held my hands in hers."I'm happy too Lauren. I'm so happy that I do not know how to express it. It will be better if you recover quickly after
