“You know what's even more annoying?” I tell Mia, my only friend over the phone. “The asshole apologized to his client over my tardiness, me, tardy? He made a fool out of me,” I whine, my anger simmering beneath the surface.

Mia let out a slow exhale. “I told you, Rih. Leaving home wasn't the best idea, you don't have to put up with that arrogant jerk of a boss, if only —,”

I cut her off sharply, a sound of raw frustration leaving my throat. “Stay home and let my mother run my life?” I snap at her, my voice rising in a pitch.

“That's not what I meant, it's just —- it can be really tough out there,” she says in a soft tone, concern evident in her voice.

I open my mouth but then clamp it shut. She's partly right, it hasn't been all sunshine and roses, but it doesn't have to, nothing's ever easy.

I puffed out a breath. “I’m sorry for snapping at you, I know you're as worried as Dean over this but trust me, if I want to stand on my own, then this is the only way out,”

I can't wait to carry my precious one in two months time.And even more I've been so strong through it all, thanks to Tracy, she's been so supportive.On my way back from work, I got a call from Henry, my grandpa's assistant, that the chairman wants to see me urgently.And for some reason, I know why.I made my first public appearance today and I know his phone will be blowing up by now.I kept the news of my pregnancy away from him and as well as everyone else. I have to, my grandfather can be a handful and a little controlling.He'd have tried to talk me out of it, constantly reminding me of how unbecoming it is for a Reynold to have a child out of wedlock, or to a man he doesn't approve of.Yes, my life as the only heir of the Reynolds family has not been too pleasant, it has always been dictated by business terms. I have been groomed to think, walk and act like a Reynold. And when I turned eighteen, I had to take

    (Ethan)I drew a deep breath as I stared at the amber liquid in my glass. I had always loved club noises, but not tonight, it's hard to focus with my mind disheveled.It's been months and I still couldn't find her.Even Arthur has not been able to come up with anything either, and if he really couldn't, then it's almost impossible.His last words to me over the phone still lingers. 'whoever this is, surely doesn't want to be found, and she's a smart one'I pause, reminiscing on these words.Doesn't want to be found?What does that even mean?Every damn girl out there wants to be seen with me, to share my bed, but not her.She made that clear with the stunt she pulled.And that should have dulled my interest in her, but strangely the urge to know this woman grows with each passing day.I want her, I want more….and that's the crazy part, it's almost like there's some force pulling me to dig deeper.But then, all the hope I had on finding her died the moment Arthur said that.I feel so p

    (Rihanna)"Who the hell hired you?" He barks, his eyes fixed on me, causing me to flinch a little.His face is tight, his super intimidating eyes fixed painfully on me, his jaw set in a way that tells me that I'm in for a big trouble if I don't speak now.That's it. Breath, Rihanna and answer the damn question.I force my mouth open. "The—- the HR did, and I've been fully assessed too," I reply, struggling to keep my voice as steady as I can.As if on cue, the door slides open and Mr. Matthew, The HR scurries in, his eyes sweeping on us both, and I see the little panic in them.Like who the hell scares his staffs to this extent?Mr. Grumpy shifts his piercing gaze from me to Mr. Mathew, his eyes fierce with anger. "You hired this —--," he trails off, his eyes scanning me from head to toe, his face devoid of any emotion. "Her?"His eyes darts to Mr. Mathew, who shakes his head and replies. "No, sir. You did." He slowly looks up at him. "She's the best out of the many applicants screene

    (Ethan)I watch the blonde I had picked up from the club do her thing, Israel said she's good, and just the right person that'd help me to forget.She places one knee on the side of my thigh, then the other knee on the other side, and sat on my lap, straddling me.She pushes her pelvis forward, rubbing herself against me.Yes, she's good, perfect even but even as she sits on my lap, all I could think of was her, my menace, the one who had stripped me off sleep. I shake my head slightly, willing myself to focus on this blonde in front of me, but after a heartbeat, she occupies my mind again, Tricia.Her soft body against mine, her soft moan as I stretch her out, her cute dimples, those gorgeous eyes that kept pulling me in, the images of our hours of non-stop sex returns like a steamy flood.Shit, I'm fucked up. I really am.Not only has she invaded my thoughts, but my sleep and my freaking mind as well. When I close my eyes she's there, smiling and giggling.God, have I been cursed o

    (Rihanna)"Do you really have to go?" My cousin, Dean lifts his eyebrows in question, his eyes darting on me.I exhaled slowly. "I have to, I need my mom to understand that I can run my own life, and with this new job, I can save up more for my dream career—,"Dean cuts me off sharply, rolling his eyes. "You have a job already? When were you going to tell me?"I give him a look, then a tiny smile appears. "I got the email last night, and the pay is really good," I breathed out, hoping to get through to Dean, I know he's worried sick about me.There's a brief pause and then he shifts his gaze back to me. "But you know I can give you the funds to kickoff this modelling—,"My hand goes to his shoulders, giving it a gentle squeeze. "I know," I offer an appreciative smile. "But I want to do this on my own, my mother already took everything, she has frozen up my account, she's hellbent on frustrating me back to the family business, but that's not what I want, not now, being a known model ha
