COMFORTING THE BILLIONAIRE

Ryan Pierce stared out his office window, a lot of thought ran through his mind. He remembered when he had just started the tech company, young, ambitious, ready to go at anything. He thought he had all he wanted until he met his wife Erica. Erica was the most beautiful being he had ever come across, whenever you saw her she had a sweet smile on always. They had met at a tech boot camp, she had accompanied her boss as his personal assistant. He couldn't get over her face and as fate would have it they kept bumping into each other till it became something they both wanted. She had brought utmost joy and peace to his life, he was happy within the years of being together, his empire grew widely due to the constant support he got from his wife. The birth of his sons only made his life more valuable, she had died when Eric was only thirteen. Hell-bent on not getting married to anyone, he had always thought no one could take Erica's place, instead he had channeled all his focus into his b

"What the hell woman, don't you look where you are going?" Cedric bellowed, so much for wanting a coffee, he thought annoyingly. Seems like bad luck had woken up with him this morning. Kimmie looked up hurriedly gasping, "Oh my God, I am so sorry. I didn't mean to please. I was lost in thoughts sorry." She pleaded.With a look of disgust, Cedric ran his eyes over her. "Seems everybody does have something to be lost in." He muttered, still pulling at his shirt.Kimmie gave a second look at the man in front of her, he was the type that covered a magazines front page, he smelled expensive and the look on his face told her the last thing she wanted was to be dragged by him. His muscled arms showed he was a regular at the gym. She wondered what would happen if she tried justifying her actions, losing a job and home was enough. She couldn't lose a face too.Cedric boiled, his temperature rising. Only because of self-control or else he would have unleashed terror on her. He walked out headi

Bella watched as Kimmie’s chest rise and fall as she breathed, she had obviously been asleep for a long time. Too eager to talk to her, Bella ignored that her friend must be exhausted. Dragging her two feet she shook her violently, causing Kimmie to wake up looking startled.“What’s going on?” Kimmie questioned, looking at the whole room in bewilderment.Bella couldn’t hold back the laughter that escaped her lips, Kimmie looked hilarious; her hair was in spikes like someone who just got out of a burning house and her face looked flushed.“I should take a picture of you right now, you would make a good meme.” She commented.Inhaling, Kimmie tried to shake the fear she had felt off, for a moment she thought the house was being burgled. Rubbing at her face lightly, “I am so going to get you back for this B. I was having a nice nap did you really have to ruin it?’ she whined.Shrugging with no remorse, Bella giggled. Sitting next to her friend she hugged her tightly, “you don’t know how m

Cedric inhaled deeply as he stepped into the Pierce's mansion foyer, he didn't want to be anywhere near his father at the moment. However, Anne asking to see him was something he could never put on a hold. Anne was like a mother to him, can be said to be his mother. Since she had taken care of him and his siblings when their mother had died so young. He craved for her attention, she was the only woman he felt safe with, his mother sent from heaven. The moment Cedric took a step towards the kitchen where he knew she would be, the nice scent of freshly baked cinnamon rolls hit his nose. "God bless your heart." He muttered a silent prayer for Anne. He didn't realise how hungry he was until his eyes caught the whole feast of different mouth watering dishes laid out on the kitchen island. Anne had an habit of not knowing when to stop when she decides to cook."Did you really have to do all of this?" Cedric murmured into her hair as he hugged her from behind where she stood facing the o

Anne was done making the dinner in the kitchen and had invited the boys for an evening date with her. She had intentionally asked for their presence early before dinner time. That would aid some release of tension before Ryan returns from the golf court he went to. "Lets sit at the porch and have an eventful evening” Oscar said to the amusement of Anne and Eric but not Cedric. He was still sulking over the deal with his father and appears not to be interested in an social activities. Cedric had almost decline Anne's invite to have dinner as a family. Seeing his father, would only have him going over what he considers a betrayal from his own father. It isn't just about being hurt, is how much his father must think of him as not capable enough of making a decision on his own.“So boys, Let me hear from you all. How is the search going for Miss Right? Anne teased facing Cedric, who looked her dead in the face. Anne understood the look, there was no need to query him any further. Knowi
