Rich people love gatherings so much and now I understand it’s just their way of showing off. Because this was seriously for some kind of statue that was built at the center of some town and this gathering was to raise a toast over it and the people that contributed to it.You have got to be kidding me. I leaned in closer to Hardy as we walked further into the room, getting stares from a lot of other couples. I mean the key is to act like we’re in love.We were immediately approached by two butlers who offered us tiny shots, but Hardy and I declined.I can’t take alcohol with the baby in me and Hardy for some reason doesn’t want to drink. “Oh my gosh… you made it” I heard a familiar voice behind us and just as I was about to turn around to see who it was. Aneesa hugged me. A tight one that caused me to let go of Hardy. Great.“Hi Aneesa” I called gently, patting her back.“I had no idea you’d be here too,” I added. Acting like we’re friends.I mean, she started it.The best
Hardy’s Pov-I was standing by my wine cellar staring out the Window from my room. Trying to keep my head together after Joanne’s outbursts minutes earlier when Theo walked in.“Got the car where you want it” He said. I nodded.“Okay.. I’ll be out in th-“Are you mad?” I interrupted him.“What?” Theo sounded confused.I took a sip from the glass of wine in my hand and breathed out a sigh.“Mad about what?” He added. I scoffed. “Don’t play clueless Theo . I know you’re mad about earlier and how I want you to stay away from Joanne” “If that’s what you want me to do then it’s something I should do and nothing to be mad about” I couldn’t see him but I could tell he had pulled his annoying calm shrug.“Okay drop the bullshit” I turned to him.“Do you actually like her do you really want her?” Theo raked his hand through his hair and looked away.“I don’t know…” He sighed.I nodded“That pretty much answered my question”He clearly doesn’t know what he’s doing with her.“Well you can l
Joanne*“Let’s see then. If I would really shudder in my pants If you strip naked in front of me… right here right now… let’s see who the real garbage is” The moment hardy breathed those words, my mind moved into a tilt. He does not mean that.He low-key just ignored every rant and chose to bring those words out of all I had just said?He keeps giving more reasons to hate more than his guts.Can’t believe I was actually worried about what I said earlier might have hurt him.How Pathetic.“You’re unbelievable” I got on my feet.Looking at Hardy you could see how unalive his eyes looked. Clearly I could already tell no woman would be able to make him shudder in his pants like I have said earlier. It’s looked like it’s been ages since he got excited about anything.Ugh why did I even rant so much.“Fine” I didn’t know where it came from but I agreed.I mean… I’ve got nothing to lose, and not to blame it on my pregnancy hormones. Maybe because I wanted to, and looking back on Trinity’s
Joanne…*It was a Thursday morning. And one of the most chaotic mornings I would ever come across since our stay here. My body throbbing from a different angle.Well it was Thursday. Whatever did I expect? I’ll be visiting the White Ale-o house two hours from now for the first time. Getting dolled up by these maids is probably one of the hardest thing I’d also ever encounter.With the hard pulls on my hair, almost getting mascara in my eyes and tweezers almost stabbed in my orbs. The clip earrings that almost bit my ear off, the uncomfortable false fingernails. I almost screamed.I am a pregnant lady, I know I don’t look pregnant… yet, but do I really have to go feeling uncomfortable.After two solid hours of primping me up, I finally got ready. I got on my feet and gave myself when a good stare when all the maids left, leaving just me and trinity in the room.“My goodness you look amazing” Trinity gasped.Exactly the way I expected her to react, she’s such a sweet mouth.“Th
Joanne-‘If you’re nervous just imagine everybody naked’ I almost snorted out a weird laugh when Tina and I got inside the gazebo and then to a huge door that had a plate at the door that wrote ‘private area’.The fact that Trinity’s words had to strike me at that moment.Was I nervous? hell yeah I was… but thinking about Trinity now is patching up my nervousness a bit.Tina placed a light knock on the door and breathed out a sigh of patience.“And we wait” She flashed a smile at me.I looked around the gazebo one more time and the amount of greens from the plants and the warmth of the place, made me smile, and somehow it eased up half of my nervousness. You could see the quiet garden outside through the roof to floor windows, and the ray of sunshine hitting the window glasses and then the plants makes you just want to stare at the scene until dusk and then have a nap in here.Speaking of naps, I really need one.The door opened about ten seconds later and Aneesa popped up with her b
Joanne* The women of the white Ale-o house are nothing special, if there is one thing I've learnt today. They were impolite, though they tried to make an effort to use their words carefully, but in the end they just said whatever they felt like. Whoever it harmed was irrelevant to them. Basically, the club was created after Anna’s fiancé, Asher, gifted her the beautiful Gazebo for her birthday, and wanting to be a show off about it. Anna decided on a women's club where they can help each other out with any difficulties another woman’s facing. And at the end of the year they donate a hefty amount of money for nearby orphanages.Because of the “good” they do and how fancy they dress and are, many people look up to and respect the women of the white Ale-o house.If people walked on sand, these ladies walked on golden eggs. And today I became one of these women. And I really felt sorry for the people who looked up to these ladies thinking they spend their time cracking their wallet
*Joanne contd.“Oh my Gosh, oh my fuckin gosh… Jo, That guy is literally staring at your butt” Bailey giggled tapping my shoulder in excitement.“I know you’re just making that up” I shook my head.“I am not… Okay take a look then , see for yourself, he is still staring at your butt, oh my gosh do you think he wants to get down with you tonight?” Bailey gasped.“Okay don’t be gross” I warned Bailey.“Okay but seriously, just check him out, he’s kinda cute” she urged with pleading eyes.I breathed out a defeated sigh and turned to look at the so-called guy she was talking about.I turned to the guy and his face was coming out a bit blurry. All of a sudden he started coming towards Bailey and I, and when he got close, Bailey pushed me towards me and he immediately covered my head with a black sack bag.I started to scream Bailey’s name and calling for help. But all I could hear was the sound of her happy scream and giggles over the club’s music. Suddenly it went quiet and the sack ba
Joanne- It was Monday morning, and the weekends which had just came had already disappeared so fast like the wind. Lying on my bed, as usual like a prisoner. I still could not deny the fact that I was still thinking about Theodore’s words since last Friday. It’s weird that he and Trinity are on to the same thing about me seducing Hardy. And if I do I’ll have my way here.What is actually wrong with them? I scoffed out loud and turned to the other side of my bed.And what’s been burning me up on the inside since Friday was when I took all I had in me and asked Theodore if he felt mad seeing me and Hardy day, I explained that he had gotten the wrong idea and Me and Hardy would never do anything weird.And how did he reply , he shook his annoying long hair and said he didn’t have any right to be mad, and then I asked why because between us we kind of had something going on.And then he said whatever we had going on was just to fill me up that he doesn’t have anything going on
