"You…Sam! You are the boss? " Emma stammered with shock spread across her face. She had never thought that Sam was the owner of the club she had been working at all this while. He never told her and now she's stunned. No wonder he barely talks about his business. She thought. "Listen Emma. Listen to me. " Sam said trying to calm her down demonstrating with his hands while she ran outside leaving Larry and Mc. Bryan in the VIP lounge. "Wait Emma. " Sam called out while hurrying after her. She stood outside the bar rubbing her body. It was a cold evening. "You never told me. Why? " she screamed at him. "There was no need to. " he said. "No need to? " she queried. "So if you didn't attack Larry you wouldn't have revealed to me who the boss was? " she screamed. "Ok. " she continued. "I don't know why or what your reason was and I don't want to know why you hid your professional identity from me. Right now, you need to apologize to Larry. " she said. "You are not serious. " Sam told her c
Emma woke up feeling tired. She stretched her self and yawned. She had made up her mind to miss the gym that day. She had spent the whole of last night watching movies after all, there was no work for her to go to. It's been two days since she had stopped working at Sam's club. She spent the last two days eating, reading, watching movies and hanging out with Ellie. She had made up her mind that she will be out looking for a new job today. As far as she is literate, she knew she would easily secure a job in town. She had lots of places in mind. She will apply in the street library, she will try the restaurant and also the commercial store. Even though she stopped studying halfway after getting pregnant, she knew she still knew her onions. She was a financial accounting student after all. After showering, she cleared her room and grabbed her phone. Sam didn't call. He hasn't called throughout the past two days and neither did she. He was the one at fault so he owes her an apology she t
Emma wore a tight jean trouser with a sweater on. She grabbed her purse and hurriedly dashed out because she didn't want to keep Mike waiting outside. She locked her door, slipped the key in her favorite purse and soon, she and Mike began walking down the street. "You will get accustom to the whole environment in a short while. " she told Mike after noticing how he kept looking from left to right. "I hope so. " he replied. "Am just months old here and am beginning to get hold of the entire city so am sure in little or no time, you'll get along too. " she assured him. "You just moved in? " he asked her. "Yea from New York. " she said hoping he wouldn't ask why and luckily he didn't. "I hope I won't be a bug because I will be needing guide in accessing essential areas for the main time. " Mike requested. "No it's cool. I will help as much as I can. " Emma told him. On their way to the grocery store after walking for few minutes, Emma noticed Sam's limousine parked across the street in
FLASHBACK:Judy sat in her office staring directly at Gideon's office. What was Roderick telling him? She wondered as she strained her eyes to look further than it could see. She hated Gideon's appearance lately and there was nothing she could do about it. The atmosphere at work was clouded with grief and sorrow. The people seemed moody and were careful with their laughter and jokes. Ryan was dead and Emma had vanished. Gideon was at the early stage of his grief and his terrible state had spread amongst the staff inflicting them like an infectious disease. Suddenly, Judy's phone began to ring. She looked around mischievously, grabbed her phone and hurried to the reception. "What are you saying?" Judy screamed over the phone. She was standing in the reception. "We can't meet in the office." she said. "It is too risky. " she added. She lowered her tune then entered a vacant corner by the reception. "You know what? " she suggested to the person she was having the conversation with on
CHICAGO:They say life throws some nasty shits at you when you least expect it. Who would have thought that a one time billionaire's wife would become a waitress. Emma had managed to secure a job as a waitress in Dreville restaurant around her street. Even though she will be paid less compared to what she earned from Sam's club, her new job had it's advantages. She doesn't have to pay for transportation but just walk down there and back home when her shifts end. Also, she got to spend more time during the day at the library because she was placed on the evening shift at the restaurant which runs from 4 to 10pm daily. Emma seem to love her new job. She always had this broad smile on which cheers the customers. She is always cautious of her words and used the word 'please' and 'thank You' as courtesy demands. In a short while, the steady customers had gotten acquainted with Emma and her cheerful gestures. Rather than the phrase 'Waitress, ' Some customers called out to her by her name
NEW YORK CITY:"Feel free Fiona. " Gideon's mother told the beautiful young lady she walked into her son's mansion with. Fiona was pulling a box of luggage behind her. She wore black heels and a skimpy red dress. With her large breasts and curvy waist, no one needed to be told she was sexy. Frankie stared at them as they walked into the living room and greeted them "Good morning. " "My boss is at work. " he quickly added. "And you are? " Gideon's mother retorted eyeing him from his hair down to his soles. "Frankie. " he quickly said with his voice shaking. "You must be one of the domestic staff I guess. " she told him. "The only one. "replied Frankie. "So what do you do around here? " interrogated Gideon's mother. "You just lie around on the sofa wasting my son's resources? " she screamed while Frankie lowered his head. He was almost shaking. Fiona who was wearing a skimpy dress had already crashed on the large sofa in the living room exposing her thighs. "I am the chef. " Frankie
CHICAGO: "You know him? " a surprised Emma asked Mike after he called out to Sam the moment he walked into her apartment."Of course I know him. " retorted Mike, disgust clear in his voice. "We used to be friends in high school." added Mike. Sam stood at the the entrance of Emma’s door, shock evident on his face as he saw Micheal. Seeing him after so many years especially at such an unexpected place brought back too many memories he had tried to forget over the years. The two men continued staring at each other not knowing how exactly to react without making Emma think something was up."Why don’t you come in and have a seat." offered Emma to Sam whose feet were still glued to the passage right outside Emma’s apartment. Sam entered into the apartment and his eyes did a once over at Mike then at Emma’s apartment. Mike had on a shirt who’s three buttons were opened up, his black suit was left resting on the arm of his couch and the belt of his trousers no where to be seen. Sam shudder
NEW YORK CITY:Fiona woke up that morning before any one else in the Romero mansion. She wore a sweater on a skimpy denim short that barely covered her ass. When Frankie went to the kitchen to make breakfast, he was shocked to see Fiona looking quite sexy with her hands soiled with flour. What was she up to? he thought. "You shouldn't be in the kitchen ma'am. " Frankie told her before proceeding to say "Good morning." "Morning Frankie.” she told him ignoring his first request. "I'll handle it from here. " Frankie said after walking up to her trying to snatch the bowl of dough from her hand "Let it go man! " she scolded Frankie. "Henceforth, you'll cook when I ask you to. Do you understand? " she said while Frankie nodded. Her charming voice made her sound less authoritative but Frankie knew she just given him an order. He bowed his head and walked out of the kitchen recalling how Judy once made breakfast for Gideon the other day. He shook his head from left to right laughing
