LOGINWeeks had gone by and there was still no word from Melissa. Mike was already growing impatient as he looked out of the large windows of the conference room. He had just finished from a meeting with his associates and even during the meeting, he couldn't stop thinking of her. The meeting came to an end earlier than was scheduled when they noticed how distracted he was. He had never been so distracted in his life, not even when Michelle left him for Justin. That moment remains one of his most traumatizing but the idea of not knowing what Melissa thought about him was even more excruciating and intolerable. He took a glance at his custom-made leather wristwatch. It was made from one of the most expensive leathers in the world. It had an initial that was engraved inside it and lined with diamond stones. It was the only possession he got from his old man before he passed. He was the last child of his father and the first child of his father's mistress. His step-siblings however were so
"Dad!! I wasn't expecting to see you here. Gosh, I wasn't even expecting to see some people here today". She laughed as she hugged him. He came when she needed someone she could confide in. "What do you mean by you weren't expecting to see some people here today? Did you see someone you weren't supposed to see?" he asked suspiciously. "No, Dad. It's nothing you should worry about okay? Now let's have this dance" She said as she swirled him to the dance floor. Mike left Michelle after getting the drinks for himself and Melissa. He had made it clear to her that he wasn't going to be having such discussions with her publicly and if she wanted to talk to him about anything, she should get to him through his assistant. He was still scanning the guests when his gaze landed on Melissa who was now dancing with an elderly man. So what now, is she interested in old men too? He thought as he tried hard to comport himself. She can have many men as she wants but not an old married man. He prob
Michelle, a coquette and a blonde who was once the crush of every man In Vegas stood right in front of Mike with a charming smile on her face. The last time they met was at the club where he had made out with Melissa the first night they met. She used to be the love of his life until she betrayed him and left him for his best friend at his lows. He lost two important people in his life and since then, he never seems to trust people anymore. For him, that was the height of betrayal. "What are you doing not greeting me back?" Michelle said with a smile that revealed her dimples. Mike used to have a soft spot for her, especially when she smiled and she was aware of that. "What do you want this time?" Mike asked with irritation. He was mostly pissed that Melissa collected a flower from the guy. He knew he shouldn't be getting all worked up because they were not in a relationship and whatever it is they were doing didn't seem to have a name tag to it therefore, she was free to meet and s
"I don't want to be late, Kara. I look great already" Melissa said looking into the vanity mirror. "Hush little one, what do you even know. This is your first-ever red carpet moment and you just want to appear anyhow? Am I a joke to you?" Kara said shushing Melissa and making her sit still. "But Mike would be here any moment from now, I wouldn't want to keep him waiting," Melissa said looking at her phone. "Let him wait girl, it's part of the culture," she said laughing. "Let him appreciate the time and effort it took to look this good" Kara said tapping the end of a Kabuki brush on Melissa's nose. "There you go, close your eyes," Kara said as she sprayed the setting spray on Melissa's face. "We're done, open your eyes," Kara said gushing at her handwork. "Finally. I was beginning to think it'd take forever" Melissa said looking at her transformation in the mirror. If there was one thing Kara was good at, that'd be face beat and of course, interacting with men. "You're welcome,
"He asked you out to dinner?" Eva asked Melissa with so much excitement. She was always hyper, as always and if there was anything Melissa knew, it was the fact that she can never match up to Eva's energy."Yes, he asked me out to dinner and I don't even know what to wear," Melissa said feeling exasperated. She had tons of clothes now from her shopping and clothes that different designer brands have gifted her just so she could model their products. She still didn't think she had the perfect one to have dinner with Mike. It was unlike her to have a change of clothes just because she wanted to have dinner with a guy. She still went out on dates with men she meets on dating pro but she had now upgraded to the premium version of the app so that she could only match up with men of class and caliber. She was now an actress so she wouldn't have anyone jeopardize her carrier with a scandal. She made sure that anyone she went out with also had something to lose and is also protective of their
Los Angeles turned out to be even better than Mike imagined it to be this time since he had once been there for a vacation. He had already had a meeting with the board members and they have finally concluded the particular sum they would be investing into their new project. It was one of those evenings that he decided to take a stroll around his hotel. Although the view from his room was satisfying enough, he would rather take a tour by himself. He wore his signature sweat pants that he was comfortable in and a polo shirt he had gotten from a Polo Ralph store in the hotel since he always traveled light.Mike headed straight for the reception and dropped his room keys since he didn't want to carry them along, and the cleaner might come wanting to change his bedsheets. The moment he stepped out of the luxury hotel, one of Los Angeles's finest, he sighted a group of tourists who seemed thrilled about the sight they were seeing. Indeed, Los Angeles was a beautiful place and it had many t
