Though weeks had passed, I was still regretting my action towards Isabella and Mia that day at the mall. The bodyguard had to block their path and I pretended as though I didn’t know who they were. It was so embarrassing and heart breaking. I was no longer in their class. Life has taken me to a position where it was a sin to be seen communicating with them. Chi-saun was preparing breakfast at the other end of the kitchen while I maintained my spot at the other corner, it was as if Logan fully prepared for this. Both wives have their kitchen accessible with no disturbance. I saw this as insane. But since then he has been good to me for a while now. I had to return the gesture as a good citizen. Ruby was beside me, assisting with the process as I had the thought of preparing his favorite. Chi-saun was so engrossed in the food she was preparing, like her life depended on it. I could see the love in her eyes, now I know why everyone said “China was the city of love.” She wasn’t at
“You are?” The waitress stopped me as soon as I was about to enter the hall. I scanned her with my eyes looking a bit embarrassed as people went in and out without being bothered. Why was this happening to me? “Well, I’m…” I started rummaging my purse. It would be ridiculous to show her just a venue, so I decided to act busy. As stupid as I was, I didn’t even come with my phone. Oh! Like he gave me access to any. I rolled my eyes in annoyance. I detest this kind of stress. “Miss, kindly step aside if you are not with a pass or an identification.” the waitress said and I squeezed out a smile with a short nod as I advanced to a corner. It seemed like a ball for the rich, just like the one Liam took me to some years ago. “She is with me.” Logan’s voice came from inside the hall as he strolled down to the exit. Of course, he was always looking hot and intimidating. “Logan.” I called out to him. “Oh! Mr. Logan. I didn’t know she was with you.” the waitress bowed and stepped asid
I kissed him hungrily and desperately, as moans escaped from my mouth. My eyes were tightly closed as I engaged in something intense and lustful but I seem to be the only one enjoying all the action.Logan was stiff and didn’t look interested.“Don’t you want me?” I asked after breaking the kiss, he sighed.“You are drunk, Amber. I can’t do anything with you at this state.” he said seriously.I thought he had changed but he was still that loyal and honest Logan even though he kept on a strong facade. I smirked.“I want you and I have no regrets.” I bit my lips.“What do you take me for? A fool.” he began.“Do you think I don’t know what you want? You are using me just to get over your broken heart and I don’t want that.” he screamed at my face.“I don’t want you to pity me, Amber.” he informed me seriously.I was gradually coming back to my senses but I was unwilling to be stopped.“I don’t care. I want you, Logan. You can’t stop me from doing it.” I said.“Who are you?” he asked sudd
“What have you done? What the hell did you do?” That was the statement that came from James as he sneaked an attack on me, he punched my face. Park held him back.“What’s the meaning of this?” I was still keeping my cool since things haven't been too fine with me. I wouldn’t love to lose my temper with him since he was my brother.“Seriously? Are you trying to act dumb right now?” he raised a brow in disgust after he snarled at me. I sighed heavily.“I wouldn’t be able to make any judgment if you don’t explain yourself.” I informed him.“Isabella now sees me as a cheat and someone who can never be trusted! They are calling the J.D brothers cheat! I can't be with the woman I love because of the mess you did!” he screamed at my face in anger before collapsing on the single couch.He looked broken and confused. Park shut the window blind before leaving my office. I strolled closer to James.“But I didn’t do it. Someone set me up.” I began.“I tried explaining to Amy but I feel she has al
“Sir…”“Leave me alone!” I yelled in anger as I rose from the ground and went over to my seat.He lowered his head to the ground and stood aside.“What is it? How much headache do you want to give me in a day?” I questioned him in contempt and he sighed.“I’m sorry to disturb your peace, sir but it’s urgent.” he informed me.“It’s the Keybank manager,” he said.“What?” I sprang up from the ground that I sat on.I entered the room where Mr. Luke and the CEO of Keybank, Charles, were seated, they stood from their seats immediately I stepped in and I waved at them.I wondered why they held a meeting without consulting me, besides we had nothing to discuss since our deal was already settled.“Mr. Liam, we are sorry to call a meeting with short notice.” Charles apologized and I nodded.“It’s alright, I’m here now.” I began.“What is this about?” I asked, exchanging stares with them, they cleared their throat as though it was planned.“It’s about our deal, Mr. Liam.” Luke’s voice resonated
I walked out of my bedroom with Ruby as we went to the dinning room for breakfast. We met Chi-saun and Lou who were already preparing their table, so bad I woke up late and didn’t get the time to prepare something for myself.“Hi, first wife. Can I get a share from your portion?” I asked her, letting out a toothy smile. She shook her head.“The kitchen door is open, Miss. Amber. I'm not your slave.” she shunned me annoyingly.I wondered what must have pissed her off or she got up from the wrong side of her bed.“Fine, fine. You would have been straight forward rather than sounding rude. It’s still early.” I rolled my eyes and sat on the seat.“Ruby, get me my phone. I will have to order something online.” I said lazily feeling so tired, upon I haven't done anything.“That’s not possible, Amber.” Chi-saun’s voice resonated the room again, she looked angry already.“In this mansion, take out or orders are not allowed. I know you can do anything but sorry, Mr. Logan is not here to save y
All through the night, I was left in contemplation. The fact that I couldn’t understand how I was feeling and Logan behaving like a prick, I rolled grumpily on the bed.“I can’t take this anymore.” I jumped out of the bed and changed into my swimsuit.“I need some air.” I made my way to the swimming pool room without disturbing Ruby.The entire hallway was isolated as I arrived at the pool. It was still and calm, so blue that I could see beneath the attractive water.The scene that happened in Hawaii flashed into my memory and I shook my head.“This is a pool and not an ocean.” I shook the thought off because I didn’t want it to build inside of me and become a traumatic problem.I used the handrails and stepped into the cool water. I shrink and exhaled heavily as I got in. The water was so cold and I ducked my head inside.“This feels good.” I commented as I raised my head from the water.Before, it felt like my head was burning but right now, I felt anew and fresh.“Two laps and we c
I walked into my multi-purpose enterprise with my secretary, Dennis. He matched my steps while explaining the report to me.“That’s good. And what about the contractors?” We stopped walking as I glanced around the entire bustling arena.My enterprise had well-doing malls, restaurants, saloons and many more intriguing activities.“So?” I faced Dennis.“They said the space would be good for a pleasure park.” He informed me courteously.“Put them on the phone. I would love to hear their reason and the structure.” I instructed them. He shuffled his pocket and brought out my phone in order to call the contractors.“Boss.” He passed me the phone.“Dennis explained everything to me but I would love to hear from you.” I started.“Can I see you in my office today, by 5?” I asked seriously.“Good then.” I gave Dennis the phone which he quickly took and opened my office door.“Anything else today?” I sat down. “I’m planning to check the other companies.” I informed him slyly.“Boss, it’s a call
