She had never felt this peaceful within herself for a long while and she was happy for the woman she was becoming...Marina couldn't wait to resume the store and she was happy to have Aiden in her life someone ready to see her accomplish great things in life, unlike Jayden who disgraced and abandoned her on her wedding day. “He is such a fool,” Marina said after remembering the encounter she had with him at the store."I guess I should sleep now."She said to herself as she lay gently on her bedThe bed was soft and fluffy as ever. She said a little prayer and dozed off.The next morning Marina felt more energetic and positive as it would be a very good day..she could feel it as he loved the feelings that came with it, She jumped to the kitchen ready to prepare breakfast as Aiden was ready to go to work .."Are you off to work," Marina asked "Yes I am, "Aiden answered as he was ready to go work."I made breakfast specially for you to thank you for yesterday and you must eat before you
Marina was surprised and left Aiden in a more confined space ..she paused and gently took the phone from her ears trying to look at the number again and placed it back on her ears."Why are you calling me by this time...don't you know that I am a married woman," Marina said angrily She looked around trying to check if Aiden was close by."Stop calling me...I've said that a billion times and you seem not to adhere."Marina added."Hey..calm down and did I hear you say married,” Jayden said mockingly "You are mine and no one else my love," Jayden added "You are my worst mistake Jayden and it's high time I get a restraining order from you because I don't understand what is going on," Marina said as she reduced her voice "I'll block this number after I end this and please stop disturbing me. I am calm this time but the next one won't be like this so kindly adhere to this warning."Marina said Marina ended the call and deleted his number immediately..she tried to put herself in order as
The office?..By this time of the night?" Marina said. She was not happy about this but she wondered why she felt jealous."Have I fallen in love with him?" she thought."Marina you need to calm down, I'm sorry for not picking up your calls because my phone was on silent. I was doing some things in the office that was why I came this late, I'm so sorry."Aiden pleaded.Marina was silent as she didn't know what to say, she was still angry but she tried to control it. “There's no problem, but next time call whenever you'll be coming late," Marina said "I'll do just that, "Aiden replied "Dinner is served," Marina said pointing at the dining table."I'm sorry, I am not hungry. I just need to refresh up and have a good sleep." Aiden said faintly as he left her to the room.Marina was disappointed by his response as she stared at the food lying on the dining table."Has he started eating out?""His he cheating on me?" She asked as a series of thoughts popped into her head.Marina instructed
"Have you sent the spy to her?" Summer asked as she was on a phone call with Amira."Yes, and she is doing her work effectively just that Marina is bent on making it hard," Amira said."What do you mean." Summer asked as she wanted to understand what she meant."The spy told me Marina has placed CCTV cameras in all corners and this will make the work less effective," Amira said as she sighed heavily."She is truly a witch!.. So what is the new update, what did you plan on doing because from what I see it is going to be hard." Summer said as she massaged her feet."I don't know for now but I have told Susan to stop for now," Amira said."Who is Susan?" Summer asked."She is the spy," Amira replied.Summer told Amira not to worry as she would make things unbearable for Marina, she was just mute so that she could get the store then she'd strike. Amira thanked her for her help so far saying she was also grateful for helping get a place in her brother's company."It is nothing, my dear." S
"Yes, I'm coming from the office. Where else would I be coming from by this time of the day?" Aiden retracted as he stared strangely at Marina who was acting all weird in his theory. "Of course, you're coming from the office. The office restricts you from taking your calls now?" She sighed as she walked back into the house, abandoning him at the front door leaving him all the more confused. Rummaging through his pocket to grab his cell phone, to his absolute surprise; he couldn't find it, and that caused him to rush over to his car and go through his briefcase and there he found it. Something felt off to him as he wondered when he had placed his phone into his briefcase but waving off the thought, he unlocked it only to meet 23 missed calls from his wife. Now that explains why she was so angry and pissed! "I'm sorry, I didn't see your calls." He pleaded in a very low voice as he walked into the house but to his surprise she wasn't waiting for him at the dining table as usual.
Amira grinned mischievously as she leaned in, a sly glint in her eye. "Summer, you won't believe what I managed to pull off yesterday," she said, barely containing her excitement. She wondered the height of issues that Aiden and Marina would be having at that moment and it made her glee in excitement. Summer raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Try me," she replied, her curiosity piqued. Amira chuckled, clearly proud of herself. "I sabotaged Aiden's work schedule, and he ended up staying late at the office. And to top it off, I 'accidentally' hid his phone, so he missed Marina's calls." She snickered, clearly pleased with her cunning plan. Summer's eyes widened in surprise. "Wow, Amira, that's quite a feat! I'm impressed." She laughed, shaking her head in amusement. "You're a master manipulator, I'll give you that." Amira beamed with pride, clearly thrilled with her success. "Hey, desperate times call for desperate measures, right?" She winked, her grin still plastered on her face.
"Can someone explain how these stock books aren't adding up? Why do we have a shortage?" Marina backed, anger visible on her face as she scrutinized the stock books everything seemed pretty clean but nothing was adding up."Ma'am, the—" Susan tried saying but was hushed by a menacing glare from Marina as her anger was revolting and none of them had seen their Madam in such a fit of rage."I don't even want to hear a single word from any of you," Marina warned, half growling as she looked at them in the eye like she was seeing through them."Don't I pay you enough?" She asked, hitting the tip of her fingers on the table."You do ma'am." They replied in unison as they wondered where her questions were headed. All they were well aware of was the fact that it wasn't a good path that she was treading at this point. It was a part that was capable of making them lose their jobs."Do I ever delay your salaries?" She asked again in a more adamant and stern voice."You don't ma'am." They replie
"Is there something going on that I need to know about, Amira?" Jayden queried with a scrutinizing gaze and Amira shuddered. This wasn't the time to blow her cover and make everything that she had worked for already mess up."Jayden, what in the world do you mean? You know I don't mean it like that. I just don't want you to stress yourself out for me, like I told you; I want to experience this work life just as every other person here." Amira said adjusting Jayden's tie as she she slyly rubbed his shoulders in a bid to twist his reasoning and make him take his mind off how tense she was a few minutes ago."It's as if you don't want me close. Like you're getting detached as the day goes by. Like yesterday, you didn't even return home and you just told me over text by midnight that you just wanted to spend the night at your place. That's not like you." Jayden complained but from the look in his eyes, Amira knew that he was slowly letting go of it.."I'm sorry, it's just work," she comme
