Moving onWith birds chirping outside and the reflection of sunlight through the window, Adams opened his eyes as he woke up from his drunken sleep. He recalled all that happened previously from the argument to how he found himself in his house. He owed Topaz an explanation and he felt guilty for his behaviour towards her yet she was still very caring and patient with him, trying to give him some space while trying to figure out what was going on with him. He remembered having too much to drink hence he forgot what happened during the rest of the night. He secretly hoped he hadn't said or done anything hurtful to Topaz as he noticed he was only in his boxers. Walking to the bathroom, he had a shower while promising himself to get over the memories of Andrea and focus on his current situation with Topaz and the baby on the way. He wasn't in the mood to go to the office today so he got dressed and made his way downstairs looking for Topaz. Of course, she was in the garden as usual. She
New beginningsShe was a very beautiful woman, with that type of body, Topaz guessed she was a model. She was nothing compared to her. Topaz's beauty did not even match hers now she saw why Adams was tripping for this woman. But Topaz promised herself not to be intimidated by her, she held her head up high and with a grin she said " And you are?" Andrea was fuming because she couldn't believe Adams would leave her for someone like the person who stood in front of her. When she got to the hotel room last evening, she began doing some findings. She knew it was a woman but she wanted to be certain. She even had to go as far as bribing Cameron, one of Adams's chauffeurs, the one who took her to the hotel, and the bastard gave up his master's secret without a fight. So Adams has been lying to her all this while, giving shitty excuses about his house, his stupid family and worst of all he used her attitude as an escape route damn you, Adams. But as she said, she's not and will never give hi
This was the day Topaz was going to meet Adams' mum. She was so excited because he had told her alot about his family especially his mum. Every month, his family had a small gathering where they meet up with each other for brunch and see how everyone is doing and it was also a way to bond with the extended family. She loved this type of reunion, unfortunately she'd never had a big family neither had she witness such family gathering and she just hoped she would fit. She was nervous as to what she should wear or say or do but Adams told her to be herself that she was a naturally lovable and everyone would adore her. So she wore a flowery maxi yellow dress and a pair of gold sandals then she curled up her hair and applied some mascara and lip gloss. She wasn't a fan of makeup, she only did heavy makeup when there were special occasions and since she wanted to make a first good impression, she decided to go natural. She came downstairs and Adams was already dressed. He looked so handsome
Smiles!Jade made her entrance known as she came in and greeted everyone. She was beautiful and took over her mum's beauty, she looked like a fun person and very outgoing too. All the little kids rushed to greet her and she could see why, because she had kept him all sort of candy bars." I've told you to stop giving too much sweets to these kids, it's not healthy for them" Samantha said." Relax, grandma Samantha I don't get to see my sweet nieces and nephews everyday its the least I can do for them and also to make them feel they have lovely aunties" she replied. It looked like Samantha was the mother hen of them all, scolding her brother Sam when he acted like a child, pampering Anthony when he acted like a baby and putting the others on the right track when they went astray. She was the matured one after Adams. Jade came up to Adams and they both hugged each other." I've missed you terribly terribly much big brother" Jade said. Adams had told her she was a photographer so she tra
It was already two days since her visit to the Adams family estate. She promised to see jade before she disappeared again for her job, so the following day, she and jade went out. They had breakfast in the estate and Margaret was so happy to see Topaz, she said she hoped topaz would also be coming around to see her often. After their breakfast, Jade took Topaz to see the city, first, they went shopping because Jade said she needed some new clothes and also needed to buy some latest equipment for her photography. She persuaded Topaz to pick something saying it would be rude for both of them to go out and Topaz didn't buy anything. She equally told her that she knew Adams had given her one of his credit cards to use whenever and wherever she wanted Topaz was surprised but jade said she knew her brother, he always love taking care of those he hold dear to his heart and told her to feel free to use it. She was right, Adams had given her that credit card after they'd agreed to have the con
"You didn't have to go through all these" Topaz said as they sat down to have dinner while waiting for the chef to prepare their meal. " I would do anything to make you happy Topaz, I promised you and that's what I'm going to do," he said." It's beautiful," Topaz said staring at the large diamond ring Adams had a slit in her middle finger. " Is that why you were so busy lately?" she asked." Yes, I'm sorry I wasn't around lately, I didn't want to ruin the surprise and I wanted everything to go on perfectly," he said taking her hand in his and giving it a gentle rub."I was so mad at you and worried at the same time. I thought you were avoiding me on purpose" she said." I'm sorry for putting you through all that stress tiger," he said. She blushed. " Stop calling me that," she said jokingly." Why? Don't you like it?" he asked." Well, would you like it if I give you a nickname too?"" If it's from you then I don't mind," he said." Well, what if I called you mushroom," she said te
Happy hearts!They both had breakfast in a chatty and laughing mood as they shared exciting moments between them. Topaz didn't have any regrets about what happened between them last night as she was already certain she was in love with him she was willing to stay if he asked her to after the contract wedding was over because she believed in him, she found a home and just hoped he would tell her that he wanted her to stay with him forever. In this short, while she'd known him, she got to know he was genuinely a nice and loving person but that was the same with Derek sweet when they just started out but then changed like the weather on a sunny day and she just hoped that wouldn't be the case with Adams. She was busy in her thoughts and didn't hear her phone ring" Topaz, pick up your phone" Adams shook her out of her thoughts. She saw the caller ID it was Lizzy" Topaz girl congratulations I'm so happy for you. I just read about your engagement online. You're a bad girl, you didn't even
Adams couldn't hold his displeasure with the sight in front of him as he walked over to the table and stood beside Topaz not taking his eyes off the blonde guy who was sitting across her. He didn't know what that guy told her that she didn't even notice his presence. " Can you enlighten me on whatever is making you laugh?" He said acknowledging his presence. That was the moment Topaz turned around and saw him. " Oh hi Adams, I didn't notice you walk in," she said. Adams? Adams? She didn't even call him babe or honey or even a sweet name to acknowledge that he was her husband, Adams thought. Who was this dude? " Oh, you must be Mr Anderson, nice to meet you. I'm Jake" the blonde said as he rose to his feet to give Adams a handshake when Topaz added " He's the one I told you about who helped me get the camera" Adams didn't return the handshake as he glared at Jake, then he asked Topaz " What is he doing here then? Isn't he supposed to be at work?" " Ummm he just got off from work a
