Sasha maneuvered through the employees scattered on the ground floor with champagne glasses and snacks in their hands. She stopped in the middle of the room and let her eyes scan through the faces until she spotted the person she was looking for.Kyle Davids was standing with his parents and they were all in merry spirits, obviously celebrating having the business in the family again. She had noticed that there were construction guys working on the company trademark outside the building. The Khumalos would have chest pains when they saw how quickly Kyle and his family were erasing them from the company. "Kyle, can I steal you for a second?""Wha-" She did not wait for him to respond, she dragged him by his hand and led him out of the building. "Sasha, what's going on? Can't you see I'm busy?" He asked, snatching his hand out of her hold once they were outside.He looked different from when she last saw him this morning, he was clean and fresh. His lean, athletic form was adorned in a

Cameron Parker had not expected to see Sonya Smith anytime soon that morning, but his bad cooking was all it took for her to finally leave the comforts of her room that morning after he had left a tray of food at her door. It could not have been more than fifteen minutes before she came down with the tray in hand and placed it on the kitchen counter.For Cameron, it was as if he was seeing her for the first time, her lean and slender body was adorned in a gray silky pair of pajamas, her shiny black hair laid down, and her flawless skin radiated even more when she gave him a faint smile,“Your cooking is terrible,” she had said in a soft voice, nodding at the untouched tray of food.He flashed her with a smile. “Oh, well, I guess I am lucky to be standing under the same kitchen with the greatest chef.” Sonya blushed, and he laughed. “You are always welcome to prepare something else,” he suggested.She shook her head. “I’d rather not. I’m not hungry.”“How are you feeling? Everyone’s be

She was amazed at how she managed to stay calm throughout all these months, considering what a mess she was. Last night was the ultimate straw, everything Samantha had said was as if she was reading straight from Jorge's diary, except, he never had one.Sonya had dedicated all her life to him, she gave him everything even when she had nothing. For the first time in years, she was not ashamed to admit that she hoped marrying Jorge would save her from her pending poverty, even though she never loved him because of his wealth before. If anything, it was the only thing she hated about him since they met back in highschool because he attracted crowds, and especially, women. He had quite a streak when she met him, he was a badboy as many would put it, a heartbreaker, someone who slept around and toyed with girls' hearts. It was an instant turn off for Sonya, he chased after her for months while she continued giving him the cold shoulder, until eventually, he charmed his way to her heart, a

There was a point back in the beginning of their relationship, where David had been eager for Lola to be a housewife, and became quite insistent after they got married and had their first child.Lola had thought about all the benefits of being a stay-at-home mom, but she had also thought about the freedom she would lose if she chose to sit at home and spend his money than making her own. Years later, when their relationship reached an all time blow, her decision to work turned out to be the best decision she could have ever made. David lost his way and gave in to the party life, friends, alcohol, women, spending money like he was eating candy on Halloween; and in the midst of it all, he forgot about his family.Now felt like the perfect time to take him up on his offer, there was something satisfying about watching someone doing everything around the house. Her mother-in-law had moved back with her husband, she had insisted on giving them space to bond. As if she could ever dream of

She barely made it out the front door when a loud scream pierced through the night like a wounded beast on a full moon, pained, angry, and desperate.Her feet were like jelly as she leaned on the door, gathering her breath as her chest rose up and down laggardly. She stood up straight and exhaled, switching on her phone before striding to her car, where two of Logan's guards were standing."Will you be able to drive home by yourself, Miss?" One of them asked.MJ gave him a small smile. "I'll manage, thank you," she said, accepting her car keys from the second guard. "Drive safely, Miss," He said with a slight bow before they both walked away.MJ got into the car and released a deep breath, leaning back in her seat. Her phone vibrated on her lap, but she ignored it.She could not believe she confessed all that to him without falling apart, especially when that was the first time she ever shared her experience out loud with another person in years, not even her therapist. She was rel
