Adams car pulled up in the hall where the event was taking place, when he got down, he heaved a deep breath before going in. When Adams went in, he was shocked to see so much people in attendance, the crowd in the hall was just too much, he tried his possible best to sight Alicia, but he couldn't see her anywhere and that made him groan in frustration, there's no way he's going to find her with this much crowd in the hall.Soon, a man came up stage and asked everyone to settle down, which they did, he gave his speech which took longer than Adams had expected, in fact, none of what the man was saying was even entering his head, all he wants is to see Alicia, nothing else taking place here concerns him at all. When the man was finally done giving his speech, Adam sighed in relief, soon, the man mentioned Alicia's name and the sole reason for this event, the mention of her name alone made the crowd go wild and it took a whole lot to get them to calm down, when they were calm, the man f
When Alicia got home, she stayed in her car for a little while as she tried to calm herself down, she was still feeling so angry about her encounter with Adams and she wouldn't want to take that anger inside and see her daughter with it.Adams words about trying to make things right rang in her ears and she scoffed bitterly."That damn man!" She spat while hitting the car steering with her palm.She couldn't even believe his guts, after everything he and his parents put her through, he still has the audacity to come to her and tell her trash about being sorry and wanting to set things right!"Sorry? Sorry!?" She laughed bitterly. "Oh, you've got to be kidding me Adams, you've really got to be kidding me, sorry my foot! Do you really think sorry can solve everything? Ha!" She hissed. "I pray I never get to see you again Adams, never ever!" She placed her head on the steering and took countless of deep breath.She forced herself to forget about her encounter with Adams, and one thing sh
May placed her hand on Alicia's shoulder and made Alicia face her. "Are you being serious?" She asked. Alicia sighed, then she stood up and began pacing in front of May."You have no idea how seeing him was enough to ruin my precious evening, why the hell did he choose to show up now huh!?" She spat, her anger slowly rising once more, she balled her fist as she felt a strong urge to punch Adams right in his damn face.May stood up and went to pat her back. "Just try to relax okay, what was he even doing there?""He came to see me, he mentioned being sorry and wanting to make things right!" She replied in a sarcastic manner. "Yeah right, like it's all so easy, I can't believe the guts of that man! After all these years he shows up in my face and all he could say was sorry! Sorry? Like one sorry from him could fix the whole goddamn thing, he has no idea of what I've been through and how he and his parents ruined things for me and made my life so miserable." She raised her head up in ord
Adams was just arriving at his office and he was just getting settled in when a knock came on his door, he heaved a deep breath before asking the person to come in.Mike walked in, there was a huge smile on his face as he went to sit in front of Adams. "Done with what you asked me to do." He placed a huge brown envelope on Adams table and gently pushed it towards him. "And yes, one of the investors called me this morning, he wanted to know when we'll be launching the new product."Adams took the envelope and brought out the paper inside. "And I trust you handled that well." He replied while taking a look at the paper in his hand.Mike scoffed softly. "Of course I did, what am I your manager for?" He bragged.After that, he simply kept on staring at Adams who was pretending not to notice him, but Mike already knows Adams too well and he could tell that he would soon start to get uncomfortable with how he was staring at him and that's when he's going to ask the question that's bugging h
"Do you think she'll be okay?" Alicia asked May as they both walked out of Diane's school premises.Ever since they enrolled Diane and dropped her off at her new school, Alicia hasn't stopped worrying, getting her to even leave Diane was a struggle, she was so worried about her and how she's going to be treated by the other kids, plus she was even worried that Diane might not be okay despite the fact that the little girl kept on insisting that she was fine, but still Alicia wouldn't stop worrying.May mentally facepalmed herself, this felt like the millionth time Alicia is asking her the same question."How many times do I have to say this Alicia, Diane will be just fine and it's not like this is the first time she's attending school, didn't she go to school in London? Even Diane already told you that she'll be fine so can you please stop worrying already because you're making me want to hit you for the same question every time." May groaned in frustration.Alicia sighed deeply, she s
"What do you think of Bianca?" Mrs Bridget asked, causing Adams to frown in confusion."What do you mean Mother?"His mother sighed deeply, she wasn't going to beat around the bush any longer and just go straight to the point.''Okay Adams, I'm not going to beat around the bush now, the thing is...I want Bianca for you, I want you two to be together, it's been so long now and—""Excuse me?" Adams sharply cut her off, his face red with anger. "Did I ask you to do any of this mother? Did I ask you to get a woman for me? Why the hell are you doing this!? You called me over for dinner and I came thinking it was just a simple dinner with my parents, not knowing you had other motive behind your invitation." He abruptly stood up. "If I had known that this was the reason you called me here then I wouldn't have bothered coming in the first place, I have no time for all this nonsense, I don't need you searching for a woman for me, I'm not a kid! Please refrain from doing such things mother, I'v
When Adams walked into his room, he aggressively took off his tie, then he threw his briefcase on the sofa in his room, his entire mood has just been ruined by the damn dinner he had with his parents this evening and he's been trying so hard to keep calm.He was about going into the bathroom when his phone suddenly rang, he picked it up from his bed where he had threw it earlier, when he say it was Mike calling, he hurriedly answered the call."Hello Mike.''"I've got the information you requested." "Wow, that was quick." Adams replied in surprise."I know how important this is, that's why I had to get it done today, and just so you know, it wasn't easy getting all this information, you owe me." Adams rolled his eyes at Mike's words. "Fine, just tell me everything already." He replied impatiently before taking a seat on his bed.Mike then began telling him all he knew about Alicia, the company she works at, her address and most places she's likely to visit."I'll text you her home a
"Mommy who's this?" Diane asked, still staring at Adams.Alicia nervously wet her lips, she was so nervous right now but she did her best to not show it, she never wanted Adams to see Diane and now that he's finally seen her daughter, she's feeling so furious, but one thing is for sure, she's never letting him come close to her daughter or telling him the truth about who Diane is."It's no one honey, why don't you just go inside first, I'll be right there with you." She gently pushed Diane inside, not giving the little girl any chance to argue.All the time, Adams could take his eyes off Diane for even a single second, he was memerized by the little girl and couldn't look away from her, even as Alicia pushed her in, he kept stretching his neck to get one more glance at her.When Alicia has successfully had Diane to go inside, she turned to look at Adams, her eyes blazing with fury and anger written all over her face."What the hell are you doing here Adams? And who gave you the right
