She was completely enveloped in his warm embrace, with her face pressed against his smooth muscled chest. Staring at him, she couldn't help but admire him.He had a Mohican cut and scythe-shaped eyebrows. His Roman nose and half-dome cheekbones sat above an oaken jaw. His wrestler’s shoulders were part of his burly physique that she was tempted to touch and squeeze between her fingers.She was so lost in checking him out that she didn't notice he was already awake.Whereas, Maverick frowned at the sight of her red face.She's blushing? Why is she blushing?Then he looked down and noticed their sensual position.He rolled his eyes and immediately pushed her away from him a little.Momentarily shocked by his movement, she finally realized he was awake. “Why were you looking at me like that? Don't you know it's rude to stare at a hot, charming man like that,” he said grumpily.That succeded in wiping out the little admire she had for him and she glared at him before answering, "Who was
Gia frowned as soon as she saw the message. She read it over and over again.What's Owen trying to do? What did he see or hear that made him think like this?She looked at the box in her hand and frowned. She was just on her way to Karl's office when the message came in. She kept her phone and marched toward his office.She swore if it turned out to be true, she will murder him.The moment she barged into his office without knocking, she noticed he quickly cut whatever call he was on and looked nervously her way as he hurriedly hid his phone.She thought of the message she saw and thought, 'Is Karl hiding something from her? Is he seeing that bitch behind her back?'She dropped the box on his table angrily and went to where he was standing.He avoided staring back at her which made her silently panic at the thought that he was seeing that bitch again.“Babe... Why are you here? I already told you not to bring the food. You should stay at home and rest. You ain't in a condition to stre
Maverick wheeled his chair into Jimmy's room quietly to the extent that the boy didn't even notice his presence and saw him on the bed clutching his stomach like he was in terrible pain.“Jimmy, are you okay?”“No, I'm not okay dad,” Jimmy managed to say.Maverick moved closer to him and touched him looking very worried.“Are you hungry?”“Yes, very hungry dad.”“Then why did you refuse to eat. You made her sad,” He said.Jimmy sat up on the bed and glared at his father. “Seriously dad... All you noticed was that she was sad. Do you like fatty?”Maverick's expression changed slightly and he frowned,Like fatty?He would never like that fatty.“Is that why you refused to eat?”“Dad, that wasn't my question.”“Okay, I don't like her. I've never liked her and I'll never like her.”Jimmy looked up as soon as he heard Jasper's words.Dad doesn't like that fatty.He sighed becoming very relieved. Then he jumped down from the bed happily.“Dad, let's go and eat now,” Jimmy said happily.He e
“Sir, it's someone from The Madon's company,” the man told leaving Owen to be momentarily stunned. “Madon? Maverick Madon's company,” Owen asked again to make sure the man wasn't telling a lie.Why would someone from the Madon company try to disrupt the stocks?This company doesn't have anything to offer Madon that is like the giant empire of the city. So why would they try to ruin this little company?Owen tried to rack his brain to think of anyone he might have come in contact with from The Madon's company, that he might have offended but he couldn't think of anyone. So why?Is their CEO even aware of this?He has tried many times in the past to try and get a contract to work with them but it was always impossible.The CEO never seem to have time to see him.Especially after his accident, it became practically hard to see him.Therefore he can't say he had offended the CEO before when he has never seen him.He quickly sent a message to them to find out why they tried to ruin the c
She was too dumbstruck to say anything at first but as soon as the shop attendant was ina good distance away from them, she turned to Lena and asked, “What are you doing? Why did you call me sister-in-law?”Lena didn't want to answer her at first and pretended as though she didn't hear her and was lost in thought while checking out clothes.But not willing to let the matter go, Whitney, held Lena's hands and prevented them from walking. “Lena answer me right now. I know you heard what I said,” She demanded this time with a frown on her face.Lena sighed and answered, “Okay fine, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said it. It just slipped from my mouth.”Whitney looked at her suspiciously not seeming to believe her words but she quickly said, “I promise I'm telling you the truth, Whitney.” Just then, Tia whined distracting Whitney from their discussion.Lena sighed as she watched Whitney walk away to attend to Tia's needs.She thought,' Whitney, whether you want to accept it or not, I know
She looked at Owen stunned.But Karl said he was planning a secret date.He even called someone and she heard all their conversation so what was Owen talking about now. “Brother, I don't like what you did but you sent an incorrect message. I was so mad that I barged into the office and called him lots of names,” Gia answered angrily not believing what Owen said.Owen sighed and stood up before saying, “You should have done more than that. Maybe even ruin his office files cause he deserves it. He's a lying cheat.”Gia opened her mouth in surprise.Why is he confidently saying Karl was cheating?She looked at him and asked skeptically, “Brother, do you have any proof or evidence to show that what you are saying is true?”Owen nodded and opened an app on his phone before coming closer to her to show her some pictures and said, “Gia look at this. She got the surprise I prepared for her but she gave me a surprise of my own in return. I was expecting her to look dirty, unkempt, and somehow
What the f*ck! “Is she gonna wear all these or do you want to turn my house into a boutique!!?,” he asked. He still hasn't noticed Whitney's new look. Lena rolled her eyes, “Brother, stop overreacting. The money we spent today won't even leave a dent on your account so why screaming like a girl.” Maverick sighed and asked, “Do you think it's easy to get money? I work hard for my money so don't tell me sh*t.” Whitney groaned inwardly. What Lena said is true? He's screaming as if the money they spent affected him. He only wants to cause trouble. “You know what brother! You are not screaming like a girl. You are screaming like all those annoying princesses singing and waiting for their prince charming to rescue them,” Lena said. Maverick frowned and imagined himself in a princess dress. He shook in disgust. That imagination is weird and horrible. How dare she compare him to a princess? He looked up about to say something when he finally noticed Whitney. He looked at her an
Whitney frowned and rolled her eyes. What's this little devil saying now? Is her new appearance that stunning? It is not as if she even did a makeover, she only changed her clothes. That's all. So why are they behaving like it's a big deal? Tia babbled at Jimmy's funny words. [No one can understand her but I can. She's saying,' Big brother why did you inherit dumbness from father?'] Hahaha! Father and son are both rude and dumb. Whitney looked down at Jimmy and said, “You rude boy! I told you not to call me fatty again! My name is Whitney not fatty!” Jimmy opened his mouth wide open just like his father had done earlier. “What! This...This...This is fatty!,” he exclaimed and then he turned to Maverick and cried out, “Dad! What did you do to fatty!? Bring fatty back right now!!! I want fatty!!!” Maverick was stunned by his sudden outburst while Whitney glared at the short rude boy. He ignored her warning. He and his father will pay for calling her fatty. She will deal with
