Summer~~
My thoughts keeps getting deeper as I walked towards Mr Dale's room -- 365.
This isn't our first meeting here, I knocked on the room door and was permitted to enter. And, as usual I met Mr Dale in his usual sh*t.
What I meant by usual sh*t is his habit of drinking alcohol and also working on his laptop. He is always like that when we meet, he is what people called a workalcholic at the same time a drunker.
"Miss Shrap, you are here" He said and stopped working on his computer.
"Yes" I answered and sat on a chair beside the bed he was seated.
"You said you have a huge information for me?" I asked impatiently.
"Come on, Miss Shrap. Exercise patience"
"Look Mr Dale, am not here for to play. I left something important to be here so you tell me what it is about or I leave"
"Ok" he picked a file placed beside him on the bed and gave it to me.
"What is it?" I asked collecting the file from him.
"Just Open it" He said with a shit eating grin.
I unfold the file in my hand and my jaw dropped shocked by the unexpected thing I saw here.
I picked the pictures in the files surprised and shocked.
"This is Charles Eden?" I asked astonished.
"Yes, I know you are shocked, anyone will be"
"But why did he lied?"
"I don't know and I don't care. It depends on you, what are you doing to do with this?" Mr Dale asked while I twitched my lips.
"Hmm, what exactly can I do with this?"
A deal struck my mind.
I will make a deal with this.
Eden Company limited.
(The CEO Office)
"Good morning sir" The workers passing by greets Charles as he walked passed them.
"Morning" He answered with a bright smile, his personal assistant and at the same time his secretary Vivian walked side with him.
Some male workers winked at him as he passed them, and he also replied to the wink.
Some female workers groaned in jealousy while some looked at him disgusted.
Well, who won't? Your handsome, rich boss is a gay, who won't take any interest in ladies, no matter how hard you try to impress him. The only woman in his life is his PA Vivian.
She knows everything about the gay billionaire, his secret, his flaws, who he sees and who he doesn't.
They both head to his office, his PA locked the door as soon as they entered the office.
"What are my schedule for today?" Charles required removing his coat and took a seat while his secretary bring out her tablet.
"You have a meeting with Mr McCall at exact 12."
"You are meeting the worker at Eden Electronic for the new project we are launching next week, you will also have lunch with them"
"Then a dinner with Mr Smith.... " She stopped and sighed.
"What is it?" Charles asked concerned by her attitude.
"Mr Smith is kind of into men" She said while Charles clenched his fist.
"It is OK, I also need something like that not to make things suspicious"
"Alright sir, he hasn't decided where you will meet but, I will let you know as soon as his secretary calls me"
"Ok" he replied rubbing his sweaty hands again. He seems anxious and nervous, Vivian looked at me with a frown.
She knows what that means, she folded her hands together.
"Why won't you ask? Am the only one here anyway, I have told you many times to ask when you are in the mood. You know it will only bring more trouble if you try to hold it back"
"But you haven't recovered from yesterday, am afraid I might hurt you again" Charles expressed himself, guilt written on his face.
"But am not complaining, am I Charles? You don't have to worry about me, as long as you are OK then am ok" Vivian responded.
Well, Vivian has been Charles secretary for three years now but before she become his secretary and PA, she was his friend, his best friend. Even if Vivian considered Charles to be more than that, to her he is her first love and the man who took her Virginity.
Yes, the gay took her Virginity.
She willl do anything for him.
Vivian Logan, 28 year old, pretty, has a perfect shape that will drive any guy crazy, she is smart and reliable, but with all her perfection she is obsessed with her boss.
She wants something than just being the gay secretary, she wants to be his wife. It has been her lifetime wish and she won't give up till she gets what she wants.
"Do you want us to do it here or go back to your penthouse?" She asked while Charles exhaled deeply.
He knows she has not recover from yesterday incident but if he keeps trying to hold back then the worst might happen.
"I think we should......" He was cut short because of the loud voice coming from outside.
"What is going on?" Charles asked.
"I don't know but I will go check" Vivian said and went to the door, she opens the door and saw the security man trying to stop a lady who she recognises as the reporter Shrap.
"What is going on here?" Vivian asked. "This woman claimed that she wanted to see the CEO but I have tried stopping her but she won't listen" The man tried explaining.
"I can see you really tried, that is why she is here" She insulted the security man while Summer scoffed.
"You can get back to your post" Vivian ordered and the man bowed and exits the scene.
"Miss Shrap, what can I do to help you?" Vivian asked respectfully.
"I want to speak with your boss" Summer replied rudely.
"Am sorry but that won't be possible, he is busy" Vivian said with a smile ignoring how annoying summer can be.
"That is bad, but am going to see him" Summer objected trying to enter but Vivian holds her back.
"What is going on here?" They heard a thick voice and stopped.
"Am sorry sir, she said she want to see you but I have tried stopping her, she won't listen"
"Who are you?" Charles asked.
"Ah" She sighed arranging her rough hair. She brings out her business card from her suit trousers pocket and stretched it to him but he rejected the card.
"What do you want?"
"Nice meeting you too Mr Charles, am here to make a deal" She smiled like she has finally hit her jackpot.
'Whoever knows he will be her jackpot' She thought.
Summer~"A deal with me" He asked chuckling."Yes, Mr Eden""Am sorry, but I don't think there is something to talk about with you. If you will excuse me..." He gave his secretary a sign to show me the way out."We are quite busy" He completed his statement.Quite annoying I must say.He seems not to know who he's dealing with."I see, then you won't mind seeing on the news tomorrow that Charles Eden isn't a gay" I smiled devilishly and he looked at me shocked and devastated.The same look was on his secretary."What did you just say?""You heard me right, you won't mind seeing it on the news tomorrow that you aren't a gay. Oh this headline will be good, Charles Eden the gay billionaire is not who he claims to BE" I spurt stressing the BE."What was your name again?" He asked scratching his hair."Summer Shrap" I answered."Would you like a cup of tea?"***********"So, what
Summer~~~"Marry me" I spurted out standing in front of the window with my hands in my pocket acting like I was looking outside but the truth is am just as nervous and confused as them but at the same time desperate."What? Is this some kind of proposal or something" Charles asked totally confused by my request.I moved away from the window back to the seat with my leg crossed."Am serious, Mr Eden. In exchange to keep your secret you must marry me and support me with your shares in Shrap broadcasting corporation.""That is my offer, it is up to you whether you it take or not""Mmmh if what you said is true, then that means I hide that am straight and not a gay but then you are asking me to reveal to the public that am not gay by marrying you?""That is where you are wrong, we could do a silent wedding. People doesn't have to know about it, you just marry me, I will go living in your house silently""Wait, live in my ho
The Shrap's MansionSummer~~I kept looking at my phone for Charles call, this has been my attitude recently since we've met.Waiting for him to call, to accept my deal. It probably sounds crazy to him, but am desperate for it.With his shares supporting mine, it will be equal to Dora's shares too.All that matters now is who my dad gives his shares?Why is he not calling? Does he counts my threats useless or did I went too far.Maybe I should never have proposed a marriage."Should I call him?" I speak out loud."Call who?" My dad asked and I looked at him. That was when my attention was brought back, that I was in the presence of my parents having breakfast."What?""Who you are calling? You haven't touch your food since the maids served you" he said concerned."Is there something wrong?""Ah, I don't really have an appetite" I lied and picked the fork."Is that really the
"No, don't touch me. You disgust me. No, bella don't. Don't die, am sorry. Bella, no, no, no......" Charles screamed out from his nightmare."Ah, ah" He panted after waking up from a terrible nightmare or rather his terrible nightmare.His loud screams also woke Vivian who was on the bed with him naked."What happened?" She asked trying to touch Charles, plunge in confusions and worries."No, don't" He said and move away from her with his hands on his ear like he is trying to stop the voice from his head.*YOU MONSTER, YOU KILLED ME* He keep hearing voices in his head.Vivian stood up from the bed, wrapped the bed sheet on her body, and approached him not caring it might be dangerous in the way he is."It is alright" She said trying to calm him down."She said I killed her, she said am a monster. Am not a monster right? I didn't kill her right?" Charles asked pacing around the space as if he was a mad man no he is close to becoming
"Be my bride" Charles smirked while Summer blinked repeatedly in awe.Shocked by his response, she never expected him to agree that easily.It was more easy than she thought."What?" Charles said seeing that she kept shut. He took a step away from her, he put his hands inside his pocket."You don't want to?" He asked. "If you don't want to, then forget it...""No, of course I want to" Summer replied before he could finish his statement."I will marry you" She said and Charles smile but quickly wave it off."Ok Miss Shrap, my secretary will get back to you" he said while Summer scoffed in displeasure."Don't worry, I will contact you this time" He said as if he knows what she was thinking about."I hope so, Mr Eden. Till I see you" She faked a smile and left his sitting room.As soon as she got outside, she jumped in excitement.She is sure he will keep his promise this time, both the marriage and he will contact
"You must think you have won but dear big sis, the game have just start. Be careful, you might not win this battle" Summer words kept ringing inside Dora head.It kept disturbing her. What does she mean? Does she has an hidden card?"No, that can't be. She has no card, even her supporter aren't as much as her especially with her husband Edwin McCain" Dora lamented to herself.Could she be just bluffing? That is it she has to be bluffing?She has already won the fight, her father is going to give her his shares soon.So Summer has nothing to do but yet her words kept disturbing her.She knows her sister doesn't talk without a proof or something to back her up.If she has a supporter, who will that be? Who? She rack her brain trying to think of something but nothing came into mind."Love" Her husband said joining her on the bed and kissed her neck.She smiled in approach, "What is wrong?" He asked and she turned to him."
Charles opened his eyes and take Vivian's hands off him, "Get out" He tried not to raise his voice."Charles!!!" She called surprised by his actions."If it isn't me, then let me call you a girl" She suggested but he refused."Get out Vivian, please"She gritted her teeth and stood up, she went to where her shirt and bra was. She picked it and put it on, she saw as he took the drug.Why is he doing this? He is hurting himself for what?She picked the file on the floor and dropped it on his table, she turned to leave but he stopped her."Vivian" he called and she quickly turned to him hoping he has changed his mind."Call Miss Shrap, bring her to my penthouse" He ordered."Ok""And also when she is with me, I will like you to address me as Sir not Charles. If possible don't call me by my name even when we are alone" He ordered and she bit her lips annoyed by his words."Yes sir" She complied with
SummerWe arrived at Charles penthouse, I won't lie everything about him screams wealth. Is he trying to show off his wealth to me by asking me to come here" I scoffed at my thought.But I still find it somehow cute. I giggled and Vivian looked at me, I clearly scrum that smile off my face and put on my serious face."Please wait here, he will be here soon" She said and left me.'What the hell is wrong with her?' I thought and took a seat. Whenever she is with me she's always acting like she is in a battle. My thoughts was short-lived when Charles entered.I quickly stood up and adjusted myself. "Mr Eden" I called and stretch my hand for an handshake but he refused it.I clenched my fist together and faked a smile. "Follow me" He demanded and I did. I followed him to a small flower house in his penthouse."Have a seat" he said and I took my seat.Sec later, Vivian also entered. "Here is it, Mr Eden" Vivian said an
