Will she forgive and give him back the key to his inheritance? What would happen if Ethan’s family found out? What is going to be her fate with her newfound love in most of her foes and woes?
View MoreArthur Cassius didn't plan to kiss her on the lips, it was just an impulse to see her reaction, which she responded to. He loved her every reaction, the way she answers to his calls, the way she acts tough but secretly a baby. He took mental note of everything about her. He stood beside her car waiting for her while thinking. His mind was junked with the image of Khloe. Arthur and Kelly initially went to the mall because Kelly suggested they go shopping like last time before she goes back to her family, to which Arthur agrees. But he knows Kelly well, she was a spoiled brat that would literally do anything to get whatever she wants. * “Sir, we have a location but it is at a very far district of the town and its surrounded by heavy security,” Sam said over the phone. “Get close and see what you can find. I need to be gone as soon as possible,” Arthur commanded before switching off the phone. He sighed waiting for Khloe to come out of the restaurant. “I'll be leaving now,” she a
“Ethan?” Khloe whispered as she saw her ex-husband staring down at her, a stupid grin on his face which her hands etched to slap. “Khloe? It's good to see you,” Ethan retorted, smiling from ear to ear. She feigned a fake smile to herself, “I am also happy to see you,” which was obviously a lie. She hates his guts and for talking to her. “What are you doing here? Such a fancy place like this?” he said, holding onto a shopping bag. Khloe knew he was faking it, and she knows exactly how to go along with the flow. “I'm here for the same reason you're here,” she stated firmly. “Ah, I see…” he was saying when someone called him from behind. “Babe? Who are you talking to?” a familiar voice said beside him, turns out to be Katrina, that witch. “Oh, look who we have here,” Katrina said from behind, mockingly. Khloe knew for the fact, she was one of the persons that caused the end of her marriage, not that she was happy with the marriage. “What brings you here?” Katrina asked. “That qu
After the text messages from Arthur the previous night, Khloe Ferguson couldn't help but keep thinking about it over and over again. His text messages brighten her day, and she prayed it would continue. Her mind kept replaying it like a movie at the shower, even over breakfast. “What's making you smile all of a sudden?” Kelly, her elder sister asked. They both sat at the dining table where food was served. “Nothing. I just had a nice dream,” Khloe tried brushing off the question. “Are you sure? Because it looks like your face is going to burst from overheating,” she said, gesturing Khloe's swollen cheeks. “My face? What do you mean by that?” Khloe said, touching her face. She had blushed so hard that her face turned red. “It's just a mere… uh…” Khloe tried coming up with an excuse but failed and Kelly saw through the lie. “Cat caught your tongue, huh? Just don't. You suck at lying. I know you're seeing someone, don't let him break your heart like that son of a bit**h did to me,
Arthur Cassius and Khloe Ferguson ended up chatting on their phones until they both fell asleep. The following day was his day off, Khloe wasn't going to work and Lucas was also not leaving the house, so Arthur stayed behind. “I better go meet with Sam and talk about the case and see how far they've gone,” he muttered, putting on his shirt and his pants when the doorbell rang suddenly. “I'm not expecting anyone. So who could that be?” He asked himself. Buckling his pants before going to get the door. The person on the other side kept ringing the doorbell non-stop. “I'm coming!!” Arthur yelled, as he got to the door and opened. Kelly stood in front of him with her arms crossed and her lips pout. “Kelly? I thought you went back to Maryland?” Arthur said, letting her in. “I didn't go back. I went to a friend's place. That isn't the issue. Why have you been ignoring me all this while, Arthur?” She said her tone rising. Arthur led the way to his living room and sat on the couch
Khloe Ferguson's heart raced as Brandon talked. Everytime someone mentions Arthur's name, her heart seems to get all excited, making it skip a beat. And not to forget, her face flushed like a ripe tomato. “I'm lost. What were you saying again?” She asked, trying to sound confident despite the flutters in her chest. “I was saying; I get it. You and your chauffeur have a thing for each other, its quite evident,” he said with emphasis on the thing. “And what makes you say that, Brandon?” Khloe asked defensively. “Believe me when I say, I know when someone is in love. My mom used to tell me about her love life. How she met my father and how they felt an instant connection. Like their fate had been knotted,” he explained. “You and your fantasies. My driver and I have no such thing. I simply like his skills, that's all. Besides, I just got out of marriage and I'm not planning on getting into any new relationship for now. I'm still healing,” Khloe said, it wasn't a lie but wasn't the
The meeting ended abruptly and everyone went back to their respective work and duties. Exhausted, Khloe returned to her office where Brandon was waiting for her.“I've been waiting for you,” he said professionally. Khloe grabbed her seat and sat behind her desk.“Yeah, I went to make myself a nice coffee.”“Caffeine isn't good for your health," Brandon advised Khloe, and she shrugged her shoulders, gulping the hot coffee.“I've been thinking about what the chauffeur said lately and it seemed to make sense. My only problem is; how does he know so much?” Brandon reasoned, rubbing his chin dramatically. His legs were crossed on her desk and his shoes were dirtying the cleaned desk. Since Khloe was a neat freak, it irritated him but he kept quiet.“Cut it out. He said he just knew,” Khloe said, trying to brush it off.“And believe that. I have my suspicions. …”“When have you not?” Khloe asked with an eye roll.“He seemed too smart if you ask me. I've researched his background?” He asked
The buzzing sound of her alarm woke her up, she turned to where the sound came from and turned off the alarm. Khloe stretched her arms and legs before getting up to head to the bathroom, where she did her business and had her bath. Determined, she was set to go to work to conquer what life would throw at her and to solve all mysteries, including finding Mark's true identity by all means. “I'll be off to work in no time,” she said to Kelly who came down for breakfast. “So, you and Brandon. How has it been?” Kelly started, a smile curling up to her face in the form of a grimace. “Yeah, we're getting along pretty well. Turns out he's here to help the business grow,” she said, cutting a piece of meat with her cutlery and putting it in her mouth. “Are you sure? Because with what I heard yesterday, you guys seem closer than just friends,” Kelly added, squinting her eyelids. “It's not like that, Kelly. And where did you hear it.” “You're really popular after that divorce and comeback.
After the reunion between Arthur and his childhood friend, Kelly, who confessed her feelings to him, out of the blue. He didn't know how to turn her down so he just sent her home. Meanwhile, Khloe and Brandon were on their “tour” trying everything, every game and the likes. Although all these were going on, Khloe's mind wasn't at rest as she kept wondering what Arthur's relationship was with that girl. She kept glancing over them with this sensation, she felt mixed emotions, anger, nonchalance and frustration. Arthur seemed to have some deep secret which she couldn't unfold and for some reason, it bothered her. “Hey focus,” Brandon said, snapping her back to the present. The field had a lot of fun activities of which Brandon and Kelly were engaged in one. “We are at the shooting range next. Ready to show off those skills of yours?” Brandon asked teasingly. Khloe turned to him, wearing a bright smile on her face, pushing those thoughts of her chauffeur and his mystery girlfrien
“Don't you, Mark?” Brandon repeated his questions. “Miss Ferguson is a very beautiful woman and also really attractive but I don't like her in that manner. I admire her confidence and bravery but I'm not lustful towards her,” Arthur said, trying to sound professional as he maintained his steeze. “Oh well. I thought you did but I'm glad you answered honestly,” Brandon said, with a smile but Arthur saw through it, it was a fake smile and he knew Brandon was trying to get something out of him. His heart was still beating fast and he clenched his chest to subdue the rate but it did little. “I want you to stay away from her. Just be her driver and nothing more. I know people like you, always trying to get close with their boss just to steal from them. Mere gold diggers,'' Brandon wasn't smiling this time, his demeanour and aura became dark and sinister. Arthur almost flinched at his words but remembered who he was. “You don't have to worry yourself. I'm just here for my job, that's all
