30 - When karma catches up
"Where is papa's tea, Abigail," Barbie, her stepsister yelled, a slap reverberating through Abigails' eardrum yet, she bit her lip, determined not to let out a shriek. She had emptied the teacup in the garden and hadn't been able to replace the content before Barbie caught up to her. Each time Barbie, Susie or Queenie gave her father tea, his health automatically deteriorated. One day, she tasted it and realized it had been spiked. Since then, Abigail would empty the cup and replace the content but today, luck wasn't on her side.
"Give me the tea Abigail, Papa needs to drink now," Barbie stretched her hand and lifted her head proudly. The old fool has to die since he has refused to append his signature on anything. He wants to preserve his property for his witch of a daughter. Not even in the afterlife would she Barbie, allow it to happen.
"He is my pa. I will take care of him myself," Abigail retorted firmly while clutching on to the empty teacup behind her. Barbie wa

President Tony, Let's Perfect Our Marriage 31 - I love you Abigail. You are my addiction.
Years ago, if anyone had fore-warned Barbie or Susie about a time like this, they would have cursed and cursed till they lacked the words. It was said that charity began at home. But What happens when the child was improperly trained? This duo were just about to make a mess of themselves. Susie turned to Barbie. The colour had drained from their faces and their limbs shuddered. Elites could be ruthless but they didn't deserve this kind of shame. Abigail should have been the one enduring this. What they did to Abigail in secret, was being atoned to them in public. How were they going to explain this unfortunate turn of events to Queenie when they reached home? And how were they going to face their friends with their heads high? How? How? How? "Boss, should I get them clothes to change?" Ezrah asked after returning with the items requested. As soon as the sisters' gazes fell on the items, they lost all hope. Isaac was heartless. He had gentlemanly looks with a pitch-bl
President Tony, Let's Perfect Our Marriage 32 - President Tony, your wife doesn't have to know
"Be truthful Ike, you are smitten," Tony teased Isaac. No one knew Isaac better than him.Isaac froze slightly. He hadn't understood his feelings towards Tanya. He only felt that he wanted her close to him at all times. Right now, he couldn't say that he was in love with her. "We are just getting to know each other but I kinda like her. Anyway, why the interrogation? Didn't you tell me to settle down and be responsible?""So how did you meet her? A per-chance visit to your mansion with Abigail?" Tony's suspicion was lucid. Since Abigail was working in his mansion, she must have taken Tanya there.Isaac furrowed his brows, "what are you implying? I had no idea they were friends.""I hope you won't treat her like your whores," Tony chuckled."Oh look at the pot calling the kettle black. I'm nothing like you. You can't compare how I treat her to how you treated your wife back then." Tonys' face fell. He couldn't forgive himself for those times but now

President Tony, Let's Perfect Our Marriage 33 - Don't go to lunch without me
A few minutes later, the desktop phone at the reception began to ring. Tanya was startled, suddenly perceiving it to be a client. Evangeline had said in passing that she would be responsible for clients while she takes care of the CEO. Without any training, she tried to imitate a few receptionists she had seen.Her hand shook slightly as she picked up the phone, rehearsing the lines 'Great Investments Limited. My name is Tanya White, how may I help you?' In her mind.By the time the phone reached her ear, a deep masculine voice calmly said, "Tanya, to my office." It was Isaac. She didn't get the chance to respond when she heard a beeping sound. Oddly, she felt unsettled. Why did Evangeline leave just like that?She approached the door not too hastily and not too slowly. Her pace was naturally smooth. It was strange that her heart thumped when she reached the door. With a little hesitation, her finger curled and a knock sounded on the door. After a ca
President Tony, Let's Perfect Our Marriage 34 - You were never mine...
Evangeline realised that she had acted on impulse but she was still resolute at the thought of Tanya. All the times this man over here acting high and mighty banged her, he never took her out for lunch during working hours. What made Tanya so special that she never ate from the canteen? Isaac never showed Evangeline any form of care either. Being his escort and whore at events was just it. This man here hasn't been fair to her."We need to talk," she said firmly, lowering herself onto the luxury chair in front of Isaac. His eyes darkened at her action. Isaac never gave any woman attention. He was oblivious to their emotions, therefore, he turned nonchalant."We already talked. I'm busy so get out." He didn't even glance at her. His face was buried in his laptop and his tone was lacking its usual warmth towards her. Evangeline felt a twitch in her heart. What happened to the boss who used to glare at her like he wanted to eat her whole, and didn't take his hands off her
President Tony, Let's Perfect Our Marriage 35 - You must never see him again.
Shopping, in Tanyas' opinion, was simple but shopping with Isaac was totally different. While Tanya walked around picking a few groceries, Isaac would as much as add double whatever she picked, including the things he thought she needed.Tanya never resisted, thinking that Isaac was picking the extra items for himself. When she reached the shelve displaying loads of her moms' favourite cereal, Weetabix, it was too high and instead of asking for help, she just stretched herself, standing on her little toes to pick the item when, unfortunately, she lost her balance.Isaac was merely picking extras of the last item she picked when he realized that something wasn't right. Before Tanyas' body touched the ground, she was held in strong firm arms. She froze at the feel of large arms around her, helping her to steady herself.The hands didn't immediately release her after she gained her balance, her neck went backwards and her eyes peered into his blue eyes
President Tony, Let's Perfect Our Marriage 36 - How about I take you out on a date?
When Tanya woke up the next morning, she decided to make Isaac breakfast since Abigail was going to bring them lunch. The thought of Abigail got her worried but at least they were going to see each other. She would know the challenge Abigail was facing. She sent Isaac a short text message. 'I made you breakfast.' When Isaac saw it, he smiled and responded, 'ok.' The drive to the office was smooth. No one relayed the events of the previous day. Be it in the supermarket or during dinner but a flawless smile adorned Isaacs' face the whole time. His three-piece suit and elegant ways, even with the way his hands swirled around the steering wheel was an interesting sight. Tanya would hide her blush while she watched him drive. Isaac loved home-cooked meals but if he had to get it, then he had to go to their old Manor where his mom and dad lived. He never wanted to go there because his mom would always nag, 'you are thirty Isaac, do you want to have your
President Tony, Let's Perfect Our Marriage 37 - I found someone who makes my heart beat.
Isaac had left ten minutes ago, leaving the girls in his office. He drove furiously and arrived at his familys' old manor in thirty minutes instead of the usual one hour. He was angered to the core. He barged into the living room huffing like he ran a marathon. His father was sitting on the sofa relaxed while his mother flung herself around him, cupping his cheeks in the palm of her hands. Since she was shorter than him, she lifted her head to meet his eyes and his gaze softened. Isaac had been mad because his father called him to meet the woman he had arranged for him. "Isaac, I missed you so much. Will you avoid me also just because you have a feud with your dad?" The womans' eyes were red from tears and looking closely, she was looking older. Isaac was moved with compassion, hugging the woman tightly. "It's not like that mum, I just want the opportunity to pick my own bride. I don't want anyone to decide for me." "But when? These arms are growing weak. When would I hold my grandc
