Bryson moved his hand and realized he was not alone. He frowned and turned on the bedside lamp. When he turned to look, he came face to face with Dede's sleeping face. He stared at her for a while and wondered why she was sleeping in his room again. He wanted to leave the room but his body will not respond to him. Dede moved her body slightly drawing his attention to her. He turned to stare at her again. Her face was inches away from his. He slowed his breathing not wanting to wake her. With so much on his mind and being tipsy, he was not sure when he drew closer after admiring her face for a while under the dim light. He had kissed her before and he never forgot the taste of her lips. The urge drew his desire to the surface. He kissed her and Dede opened her eyes and moved backwards seeing Bryson in her bed. "Sir," Dede whispered. "Ssh," Bryson said placing his hand on his lips. Dede realized immediately he was drunk. She got out of bed and Bryson's gaze followed her as she went
"Huh!" Dede said unable to look Bryson in the eye."Look at me and answer my question," Bryson said and Dede struggled to raise her head to look at Bryson.She looked everywhere but Bryson. Bryson stood up from behind his desk and walked up to her. Dede retrieved her steps making Bryson stop in his tracks. The last thing he wanted to hear was, that he was harassing a woman in his office. He frowned and headed for the door."You can go back to your office and have the documents ready and on my desk for the afternoon meeting. Tell Alex, I said he should help you get ready for tomorrow's event," Bryson said and exited his office using the main exit. Outside, Bryson used the staircase and headed for the finance department. He could have invited the finance manager into his office but he wanted to get out of his office. It was just him and Dede alone on the whole fourth floor. Calling Dede to his office and her behaviour just now, brought his desire to the surface. He was just a couple of
Bryson upon getting home, called Alex and instructed him to do the investigation on his family discreetly. His wealth was not one that he had inherited from his father.The Adams family is wealthy and powerful because of his hard work. His parents were neither poor nor rich. Bryson growing up as a boy had always been smart and industrious. With his science and mechanical engineering background, his company has created robots for the government to send on peacekeeping missions instead of sending people who may end up dead. To make the military people still relevant, the robots have been assigned to individuals to control. The robots have been built in such a way that they can be controlled by their assigned individuals from thousands of miles away. All you need is the robot code, and the software and you log in with their credentials and you can see everything the robot sees, and through the robot, you can engage with the individuals. It is almost like playing a game. This is where he
There was a door creaking noise heard in the hallway making Bryson, Dede and Alex look in the direction where Melissa was standing a while ago. "Check what is happening there," Bryson said and Alex moved towards the direction the noise had come from. "You look great," Bryson complimented Dede as soon as Alex left. "Thank you. You look amazing like always too," Dede returned the compliment. "It was one of the waiters using the back door," Alex reported upon return and Bryson frowned. "Have that door locked. I don't want anyone using that entrance," Bryson said and fully descended the staircase making Dede move a step back to make way for him. "Let's go," Bryson said to Dede and strode towards the auditorium's main entrance. After walking to the door, he turned to find Dede walking like she was counting her steps. He frowned and walked back to her. "Struggling with the heels?" he asked seeing she was looking at her feet. "A little," Dede replied with an awkward smile. "
"What happened?" Alex asked forgetting Bryson was also in the room."Don't ask silly questions, get her something to cover herself with," Bryson yelled at Alex and he left quickly to find Dede something to wear. Downstairs in the hall, Mr Jackson searched for his daughter but she was nowhere to be found. Melissa after ripping Dede's dress exited the building and went straight to her car. She asked the driver to move out of the place and she made a call to someone. "Make sure those pictures are everywhere on social media. If you can, let it go on the news," Melissa said with a sinister smile. "I would like a follow-up news to tell everyone she is a whore and a home wrecker," she added before ending the call."Silly girl, you want to take what is mine because you feel you have what it takes," Melissa scoffed and her driver looked at her briefly in the rearview mirror and continued driving. Back at the event location, Alex returned with another dress and Dede quickly put it on inside t
"Now I know where to find you. Whether you like it or not. I will get a piece of you," Brian said with a smirk. He got out of bed and had a quick shower. He put on a black round-neck T-shirt, matched it up with black trousers and put on a light green blazer. He grabbed his Rolex watch from his drawer of accessories and put on a small gold necklace. He neatly styled his hair and headed for the door after admiring himself in the mirror."Now time to pay my brother-in-law a visit or have my men look that girl up," he said and turned the doorknob.He opened the door only to find Julia standing behind the door with a frown. He also frowned looking at her with a questioning look."What is it?" Brian asked."I thought you said you would stay home with me today. So where are you going?" Julia asked."I said, I will stay home. I didn't say anything about 'with you'," Brian said and walked past Julia heading for the staircase.Julia followed him and stopped him from proceeding any further by st
"Bryson, you son of a bitch. I can't believe he is organizing a press conference for this stupid low-life daughter of Jezebel," Melissa cursed seeing the announcement of an upcoming press conference from Adams Corporation. She fetched her phone, dialled her mother's number and waited for her to answer. She heard her mother's voice at the other end of the phone."Mum, it is obvious Bryson likes this girl," Melissa whined."Don't worry sweetie. Let's plant some people to ask questions that will make her embarrass herself. You know Bryson will not attend such conferences. He will leave it for his PR team to handle," Rebecca said calmly. "I stripped her naked and she is going to show her face at the press conference. Do you think a question will make this girl feel embarrassed?" Melissa asked."Look, social media can be very cruel. She wants to be popular. Let's help her by making her a ridicule of the society," Rebecca said. "You can come over so we put something together. Your father i
"Good, find out who else lives in that apartment and let me know how tight security is around the place. If there is anything Bryson cares about, it is security," Brian said and ended the call. The man on the motorcycle drove off using a direct direction. He didn't need to drive to see the apartment. He was well vest with knowledge of the area and knew where every road leads to, including apartments in the location. As soon as Alex's ride took a turn on the road, he already knew where they were heading and which apartment was in the location. He found a place to park his motorcycle and used a different route to the penthouse. He knew he could not go through the gate because of the security man but he knew how to get into the compound. He did the checks and left the place after sharing the information with Brian. Inside the penthouse, Dede moved to the kitchen to prepare something. Katie was only there for a day and left the very next day. There were assigned cleaners who came to cle
