MANNYManny sighed and massaged her wrist, trying to relieve herself of the pain she felt. She twisted them gently and started writing again.This was a fashion company yet she kept signing documents like she was running a corporation.When she was finally done, she headed to the dressing room to help out. In times like this, she missed Avery.In the Spirit of their competition, she would have done her part of the work and even a little bit of Manny's just so she could prove her worth.‘At least she always got the job done.’ Manny muttered as she grabbed materials from where it was kept and walked back to the lady who was halfway dressed.She sighed and shook her head at how the lady was dressed. The materials were all wrong, the colors didn't match and it looked like she was suffocating inside the clothes, like her measurements weren't taken before making the dress.“Who would dress someone like this.” She grumbled, peeling the clothes off the woman's body gently in order not to ruin
MANNYAs she set out to work the next day, Manny stumbled upon Andrew on her way downstairs and she quickened her pace as he walked behind her.Last night's conversation was still fresh in her mind and her husband didn't utter a word about it which was a good thing. She felt if they were to continue the conversation, it would have ended up in an argument and she didn't have the strength or time to do so.She passed the dinner dining room and was walking through the hallway when Andrew asked her a question. “Aren’t you eating?” “No appetite.” She replied almost immediately and walked away before he could say another word.She was already running out of time, she didn't want her mother to give her another lecture because of a tardy arrival.She blamed the pregnancy for having no appetite. It was either she ate very little or didn't eat at all.Weren't pregnant ladies supposed to have a huge appetite? Why was she different?All immediately went to the back of her head as she reached he
MANNY“Do you think there's an open spot for a manager?” Cheryl asked, nibbling on her food. “Manger?” Manny repeated and then scoffed. Manager for what? Why did she want to climb up the ladder so fast?Manny didn't give her a reply. Instead, she kept her eyes on her chauffeur. If he stands, she stands.She wasn't wasting another second here.Seeing how Manny had been staring at him and sensing her anxiety, the chauffeur got up and walked to Manny, getting the memo.“Ma'am, we need to leave, you should get back to work.” He advised, knowing he was speaking her mind.Feigning ignorance on how much time she had wasted, she pretended to check her watch.“Give me a minute.” Her chauffeur nodded and Manny excused herself and Cheryl waited while making a phone call. She kept whispering into the phone, gaining a suspicious look from Manny's chauffeur.What was she up to?After doing her business she came out of the restroom, and right on cue, the piercing sound of a gunshot was heard and th
ANDREWAndrew was in his study when Jason suddenly entered with take-outs in his hand.He was spending more and more time with Andrew and he found it weird. Jason might be jovial, but he certainly wasn't clingy, which made his actions suspicious.“What are you doing here…again?” Andrew asked, getting tired of him showing up at his house whenever he wished.“I just got here.” Jason replied, looking at Andrew innocently.“You've been coming here every day for the past one week.” Andrew countered, turning on his chair to face his friend and looking at him weirdly.“Are you suddenly having feelings for me now that I'm married?” Andrew asked, raising an eyebrow and causing Jason to choke on his drink.“Wh…what?” Jason stammered, looking flustered. His cheeks turned to the brightest shade of red.“Tchh… I always knew you were gay.” Andrew taunted and turned back to his work, smiling.“What..? I'm…I'm not! I have a girlfriend!” Jason tried defending himself but Andrew was hearing none of it.
ANDREW “Now that's no way to talk to the mother of your child.” Kate reprimanded, mischievousness clear in her voice as she posed at the entrance of the door.She knew she already had him as soon as his eyes roamed her body.Andrew clenched his jaw and tried focusing on his as he felt a bulging in his area—due to the fact that it hadn't been used in a long time.Kate smiled seductively and entered. Meanwhile, Andrew was playing hard to get but would eventually give in. He always did.“Why was Jason here?” She asked, but he ignored her.He wasn't doing anything significant on the laptop yet he had to pretend so she could get the hell out of his study.“I heard what happened to your wife, is she okay?” She asked again and got the same reaction.She wasn't going to give up so easily.“Do you know who did it?” He ignored her again.“I wonder if Damon knows something about it.” She stated to herself but loud enough for Andrew to hear.‘Got you.’ Kate said in her head, smiling triumphant
MANNYManny has been working as early as 7 in the morning preparing the models for the upcoming fashion show.Looking at the clock, she discovered that it was already late into the afternoon and she hadn't even had breakfast yet. With sweat running down her face and a bunch of pins in her mouth, Manny felt tired. All she wanted was to go back to her office, relax, and have a good lunch. Good thing she was dressing the last model for the day.“Allen Cooper and his father will be coming by the office today to sort out the contract for the marriage and I want you to remember that this marriage benefits the both of us and you must sign the contract. ” her mum said in a serious tone, coming out of the large dressing room.Manny felt irritated and fed up. Her mum has been pestering her about the contract for the last two weeks, why couldn't she just accept that she's not ready to marry? “No Mother, I want to marry someone who loves me for me and not just what he can get out of me.” “I d
ANDREWAndrew tried getting up from bed but the headache won't let him. Good thing he kept a pack of aspirin and a bottle of water by his side.After taking it, he laid for a bit allowing the drug to take effect a little. He had flashbacks of the party yesterday.He still remembers how the lady he grinded at the club smelt and how her body felt in his hands as she rocked her body against his, especially her bum. Everything fitted so perfectly. His thoughts were interrupted by a phone call. As he picked up his phone, he saw that it was Jason. What could he want early this morning?Jason and Andrew have been friends since they were little although Andrew's father always thought that Jason was a bad influence on Andrew. Eventually the bond grew stronger as Jason started working at the company just like Andrew. “Dude, I've been calling you for the past five minutes. Where are you? The board meeting is about to start and your dad is furious.““Don’t tell me you still went to that party
MANNYAvery hated Manny on the spot. She made up her mind to keep the fashion house now that it has fallen in her hands on a platter of gold.After all, her dear cousin might never find someone to marry her.Manny tried to avoid Avery all through the night till the morning. She couldn't bear being with someone who was taking something that was her's. Meanwhile, her mother seemed to be avoiding her. She was either busy designing or staying in her office doing who knows what all day.Manny had so many questions. She felt mistreated, how could her mother give something that's rightfully hers to an outsider– although Avery was a long distance cousin.As Manny was in her office stuffing her face with food, Avery walked in like she owned the place.“See Manny this is why no one will ever want you. Look at all these junk food” Avery said, her face contorted with disgust. “What do you want Avery? Aren't you supposed to be overseeing the models?”A twain of frown appeared on Avery's face. S
