XavierWatching the busy streets while I mulled over what happened three hours ago did nothing to improve my sour mood. The cool breeze from the rooftop and the marijuana cigar did nothing to soothe me in any way.Lucas observed from the sideline in silence. The whisky bottle that I am literally sharing with him hung loosely in his hand. He so much wants to remind me how he warned me not to go ahead with that plan but then he is wiser than that.Any wrong move from him can make me transfer my anger to him which definitely will not end in his favor.Sighing loudly, Lucas joined me to watch the view of the city. “How about we hit the ring? I’ll be your opponent.” No other man round me can match my energy when I’m boxing with fury; I am capable of hitting a man to death with my fist, but Lucas is an exception; he always matches my energy.“Inform Wyatt to cancel all my meeting for the day.” I can as well visit the port when I’m done boxing with Lucas. “Any news on Steven?” Steven is a fr

XavierI informed Sly that I was coming over which was why he didn’t look alarmed when the front door opened. This is my penthouse, which means that I have the master card for every room in here including the front door.Kenz who was engrossed in the cartoon playing out on the screen didn’t notice me walk into the living room. I had to call her to gain her attention. “Hey, baby.”Surprised to hear my voice, she swiped her head quickly to the right and leaped out off the sofa with excitement when she saw me. “Mummy!”“Yes, baby!” Angela responded from the kitchen space.“Daddy is here!” She leaped into my waiting arms and wrapped her tiny hands around my neck. “I’ve missed you, daddy.”“I’ve missed you too princess.” I kissed her neck and then her cheek before carrying her back to the sofa. “I got some kinds of stuff for you.” Carefully placing her on the sofa, I handed her a plastic bag that contained toys and chocolates.She smiled widely at the sight of the chocolate. “Thanks, daddy

AngelaI rushed into the hospital with Xavier behind me. He doesn’t look affected over the news that Daniel was in an accident, more like he couldn’t care less. His aloof behavior proves that he is not here for Daniel, but rather is here for me because he doesn’t want me to be out here alone by myself this late.Slamming my hand on the marble counter of the hospital, I almost poked my head into the computer screen to find information about Daniel myself. “I’m here to see Daniel Marshall. He was brought in here few minutes ago.”The nurse typed away on the computer, no doubting searching for information on Daniel. “How are you related to him?”Telling her that I’m his friend is not enough reason to let me see the patient, so I almost lied that I am his sister. But then, if the news of the lies spreads, it is going to ruin our plan with Natasha.“She is his boss.” Xavier responded behind me. Grateful for his help, I smiled at him. The nurse told me his room number after putting a call a

Sorry about the short and unedited chapter.I’m literally in school struggling for a space to my write my exams.I hope ya all understand me Thanks.NatashaMartinez is drained with his futile efforts to get his son out from police custody. Drugs is a big deal over there and he’ll be facing a really long time in jail if this case gets to court. I’m surprised that he is yet to say anything about my pregnancy news. I’ve been expecting a call from him, or possibly questions about the father of the baby since he never touched me before and after wedding.A trip to London is on my list of things to do. I have to come up with a plan, a better explanation as to how I became pregnant.I’m not above deceptive methods, anything to get him on my side again. He is my only means of fighting Xavier; I am nothing other than a dirt under the shoe when it comes to fighting Xavier. It’s a pity that I gave up my five hotels to him.Betrayal hurts like a bitch. It is so much better when you are t

XavierRequesting a dinner without a prior appointment isn’t something I would have agreed to had it been a random person. Jackie is really pushing her luck; imagine my surprise when Lucas informed me that she requested a meeting or she’ll show up at my club, knowing the risk factors associated with that.Angela can show up at the club anytime, and I do not want her to run into us; she needs to hear it from me first, not run into us like that.Walking into the Italian restaurant, Lucas guided me to the private booth he reserved for us. Jackie who was already seated stood up the moment she saw me approaching the booth. “I’m sorry for requesting your attention like that.”Sorry? “If you are going to be foolishly brave, you can as well continue with the bravado till the very end.” Pulling out of the seat, I made myself comfortable. “How dare you give me an ultimatum?”Sensing my anger, she looked around nervously. “I’m really sorry. I figured the fact that you are a very busy man, and _”
