Dirty Secrets Chapter 43
Xavier The hotel suite per my order has just one room. Just as I expected, it was the first thing Angela checked when we walked into the room. Her eyes narrowed as it dawned on her that there is only one room available. “You planned this didn’t you?”Shrugging off my jacket, I laid it carefully on the sofa. “I made my intentions very clear at the restaurant. I want to spend the night with you in my arms. I won’t be able to do that if we sleep in separate rooms.” Sue me, but I am a man that wants what I want. “Sly should be here soon with some of our toiletries. What do you want to do till then?”Although she’s trying to appear mean and unhappy with the arrangement, I can see the smile dancing on her lips. “I don’t know big guy. You planned the evening, you can as well tell me what you have in mind for us.”Starfishing the bed, she stared at the white ceiling. “Do you own this hotel too?”I do not own everything here in New York City. “No, but a friend of mine does.” Making myself comf

NatashaYou can’t break a broom when it’s in a bunch, it’s much easier to break when it’s just a broomstick. Xavier and Angela. It will be very difficult to fight them when they’re together, which is why I have to separate them before attacking.There is a saying that goes ‘use what you have to get what you want and that’s exactly what I’m going to do.Retouching my lipstick, I picked up the landline and gave Perry a quick call. “Has Ms. Angela shown up for work today?”“I’m not sure ma’am, but I’ll give a quick call to her secretary’s desk to confirm.” I slammed the phone down, disconnecting the call. She called back a few minutes later. “Yes ma’am, she just showed up.” Grinning widely, I disconnected the call.The plan is to make sure that Angela sees Xavier walk into my office. I’m pretty sure that Xavier will never tell her about the baby; not when he already told her that he never touched me throughout our marriage.Wanting to make my bump more obvious, I discarded the jacket.

Dirty Secrets Chapter 45
XavierTampering with her locks and making myself feel at home wasn’t the best option, but then I’m not welcomed here, not that I wanted to be. The mixed-match sofa and the leaking roof speak a whole lot about her living condition. She gave everything up without a fight and settled for a life that I’ll never find myself in. Lucas, who is equally uncomfortable being in here, opted to sit on the wooden dining seat. That looks like the only seat which is free from bugs.If the reports I’ve gotten from my men are accurate, she should be home by now. Trying not to be impatient, I made myself comfortable on the kitchen island.Lucas snickered. “You gotta be careful up there boss. We do not want broken woods tearing into your asscheeks.” I’m in no mood for jokes, so I let this joke slide without showing any sign of humor. Lucas got the point. “She’s home.”At his words, the front lock clicked, followed by the sound of the door opening. Silent footsteps filled the room, then a sudden light

Angela I’m trying not to let Natasha’s words get to me but then, we are only humans. No matter how hard we try, our minds will always take us back to previous events of the past, and mine is leading me to my conversation with Natasha.Blinking rapidly, I tried to focus on the paperwork before me but then that too was futile. The door opened, the sound distracting me for a bit. Xavier strolled in like he owns the building.His love for black color makes me want to jump on him and kiss him senselessly. His black suit, black shirt, and black jacket make him look cool with his jet-black hair.Xavier will look cool in anything.“With the way you conversed with me over the phone, I expected you to jump on me the moment I walked through that door.” His arrogance isn’t new to me. Xavier placed a plastic bag on the desk, rounded it, and grabbed my jaw. “I missed you.”Before I could respond, he leaned down and placed a kiss on my lips. At first, I remained still, contemplating if I should res

Xavier On many occasions, I’m tempted to just kill Natasha and her mother and put an end to this hassle but then when I remember that they almost took my woman away, that they killed an old friend because of his money, I realize that a quick death is nothing but a gift to them.Whatever game Natasha is playing with this baby is just going to end badly for her. I’m going to rip that baby out of her before she gets to ruin my relationship with Angela.“If the baby isn’t yours, that means Natasha is planning something, and you have to be careful.” I can see the worry all over her face which isn’t necessary at all.Something needs to pose a threat to you before you apply the concept of being careful. Natasha is nothing but a statue in this game; I’ll move her when I want to, and aside from that, she’s is just still to me.Before I could reassure Angela not to be scared of Natasha, my phone pinged. Picking it up, I saw a text from Adam.Martinez's next shipment is coming in next week Thur
Dirty Secrets Chapter 48
AngelaNatasha and some of the board members including myself felt springtime should be the best time to host our fashion week, and for that reason, we are expected to bring in new designs for the fashion show.Exhausted from the meeting which lasted more than two hours, I dragged my feet to my office. Sly followed behind, trying to make himself as invisible as he can. “What do you know about falling Sly?” I won’t mind him going through my work before final submission.“Absolutely nothing.” He responded coolly which made me chuckle. He dresses smart all the time, but there is more to fashion than a perfect cloth combination. “Boss man wants you at the club immediately after your meeting.”The small smile on my lips vanished. “At the club?” Did he faint from excessive bleeding? I don’t think so. The wound wasn’t even deep enough. “Is everything okay?”“Yes ma’am.”“Why then is Xavier demanding that I come to the club?” He knows I’m working, and for him to insist that I come over
Dirty Secrets chapter 49
Angela Lucas huffed at my indirect accusation. “I’m not going to hurt you Angela, so get into the goddamn room. bossman is in there.” It will take more than mere words to reassure me. When it was obvious that I wasn’t moving an inch, he grabbed my hand and pulled me into the room. The sight I saw made me regret coming to this club in the first place. In the middle of the room is an unfamiliar man, chained with both hands up, his face battered beyond recognition. Xavier on the other hand stood next to him with a gun in his hand. I looked at Lucas who simply avoided meeting my gaze. Sly did not even make it into the room. I swallowed nervously. “Xavier? What is going on?” Xavier who looks nonchalant about the whole thing dragged his feet towards me, the gun hanging loosely in his hand. “This young man is an imposter. He is here under the pretense of who he is not, with the intention of bringing me down, or possibly sending me to my untimely death.” That doesn’t explain why he is be
