Susan pouted her face funnily. “I just feel pressured. Will you kiss her at the launch? Will you hug her and hold her tight? I am already jealous and I can’t help it but feel sad” she confessed meaning every word.The man held her tight in his arms “I am not going to lie to you but things are not going to be easy on us. All I know is that I believe in us that we can pass through anything in this world. You just have to trust in me. When all this is over, then we can live our life and forget everybody else” he pinched her cheeks and she immediately turned red.Someone cleared her voice and it was then that they saw Karen standing in the living room looking at them with a smile on her face.“Ma’am, it is good to see you again. How are you doing? I will go and prepare for you a hot bath in your room then lunch will be ready. Just name whatever that you want to eat and I will prepare it for you.” Karen was so excited to see Susan. “Thank you, Karen but I am not angry. The only thing tha

“Yes…. I wish that you would stay for the rest of the afternoon but I guess that I can’t demand too much of your time. I don’t want to be a nagging wife.” But she realized that he was silent. He seems to be deep in thought.Ethan was still staring at a daze when he felt soft hands touching his chin” Don’t worry, I understand” she kissed his lips and smiled for him” I know that you are going to the event for your mother’s sake and I know better than to try and stop you. Just do what you have to do and I will be here waiting for you.”With a worried face, he stood up and announced “I am sorry, love but I have to go. Pleas be calm, I will be back sooner than you think” he caressed her cheeks and then went to the shower. A moment later, he came back wearing his usual custom-made suits. For him, every occasion was special and a good presence was necessary. He didn’t dress up for Vivian but he had Susan in mind when he was putting on that suit. Just imagining them walking together withou

“You are hurting me, Ethan. what is wrong with you?” Vivian cried out.“Is anything the matter? Ethan, why are your shouting?” Ariel asked while hugging her daughter. Haven’t you hurt her enough? Look at her, she is beautiful, successful and elegant. What more do you want in a woman?” Seeing her protect Vivian like that made her look like a coward especially when he remembered that Susan had no love from her.“Like daughter like mother. Is she the only child that you have? I don’t even know why God gave you a child when you don’t even want to take care of them. You spoil and teach one bad manner and then you abandon the other one.”“I am sorry, but how I raise my kids is none of your business. What I won’t take is your continuous disregard for Vivian. would it hurt you to show her just a little affection?”This was not the boy who used to love her presence. She didn’t know where everything changed along the way. All of a sudden, Ethan didn’t want anything to do with her.Ethan didn’t

“Bastards, I will transfer the money in a minute, okay. But I promise that you will return that money one day.” Immediately, he took his phone and initiated the process. He knew that they would always find a way to bribe him for money. But he would be glad to find a solution from them because now his mind wasn’t working at all.“I knew that Vivian was a bitch. But don’t worry, brother. we are here for you and we will protect you from her. Although, we don’t like Susan, Vivian is even worst. We have had her on our radar for awhile now and we will be happy to help you with her” Damian suggested. “Well …good luck with getting rid of her when I am marrying her in one week.”“You sure will find a way to tell her off. we will handle our mother for you. You know that she loves and listens us. As for father, you will just have to fight with him until you be on the same page. Tell him that you aren’t in love with Vivian and make him understand. He is like a robot , I never liked his commandi

“If you dare to tell anyone about what happened between us the other night, I will banish your family from this city. I hope that you know that I don’t joke around. I have had it up to my throat with your continuous pestering. Your family might be friends with my mother but I couldn’t care less. So, you will have to think very carefully about this matter before you open your big mouth. I hope that I am being crystal clear to you.”“I hate you so much. How could you do this to me, bastard? I gave you everything. ““No..…..you wanted my money . Now, get out of my car before I get rid of you myself” he yelled and Vivian had no choice but to climb down. Tears rolled on her face like no one else business. This man has managed to break her heart in away that she hadn’t imagined.The car sped off in a jiffy as Vivian watched her future slip away from her hands.At that moment, she wasn’t even worried about herself but her mother. She knew that she won’t accept it that they have lost and she
