It had only been a few minutes after he left that Sierra stood up from the sofa. She had tried to nap a little. But, she was unable to sleep.Her mind continued to reel over his words while he was in his drunken state. She wondered what he meant. And, Sierra was curious. Not only because how words were mysterious, but because she realized she didn't know Zeke that well.And, since she was going to get married to him, she had to know everything about him.She picked up her phone from the bed and dialed a number. It belonged to her father's private investigator named Natasha. She was very efficient and trustworthy."Good morning, ma'am" Natasha spoke from the other end, the moment the call was connected.Sierra sat on the sofa, her legs clamped together to reduce the tension at the realization that what she was about to do was wrong. It was disrespectful to poke into others' privacy. But, she had to know."Morning," she responded a little tensely. "I have a job for you. And I want the
Sierra was confused as there were chances her mom could be related to that woman."What the hell is going on?" She grumbled, pacing around her room and trying to figure out answers to her unlimited questions.She had just arrived back home after the banquet. Zeke had taken her to meet his friends, Christian and Jackson. And they were quite interesting people. Christian was even more casual and relaxed than Zeke. At some point, she thought he was even low-key flirting with her. Until she realized he was just the jovial and playboy type.Jackson was quieter and more gentlemanly. He seemed to be calmer than the other two.But Sierra would not be a fool to believe that he was not a playboy too.Sierra sighed and slumped back on the bed, recalling the image of the woman she had seen in Zeke's wallet. She looked familiar and almost like her mom.She couldn't ask her dad for any information because he told her not to touch her mom's belongings and he usually hesitated to tell her about her m
Sierra sighed in relief."Phew... That was close. I should have asked a maid to come to remind me of her arrival." Sierra muttered as she patted her chest.But, she still did not dare to relax. It was only going to be a matter of time before Nora noticed the drive was missing.She had to transfer the content.Sierra ran out of Nora's room and directly to her dad's study where she immediately started transferring the content and within some minutes the transfer was done.The only obstacle was how to return the flash drive to Nora's room without her knowing. As Sierra walked towards her room thinking of what she could do, she saw her walking down the stairs to the dining section.Sierra sighed in relief."Phew, that was close" she mumbled as she hurried into the room and returned the drive.Unknown P O VUnknown location.A pair of eyes were looking at the whole scenario through a computer. His gaze was intense and he chuckled lightly, seeing her actions.He collected a cigarette from t
Natasha walked nervously into the restaurant.She had an appointment with Sierra. She walked in and within a few seconds, she spotted Sierra seated at a corner of the restaurant.It was a reserved table. Sierra had a casual expression as she flipped through the menu.Natasha walked over."Hi, Natasha."Raising her head, Sierra said, as she smiled at her. "Hi, Sierra." Natasha nervously sat down on a chair opposite Sierra's."Good evening... I'm glad you could make it." Sierra beckoned at a waitress.The waitress came over, and with a smile, she asked,"What would you like to order, ma'am?" She was polite."A plate of sandwich please, and a cup of espresso. And what would you like, Natasha?"Sierra turned towards the calm-looking lady seated in front of her."A glass of orange juice, please." Natasha smiled."Is anything wrong with you? You seem lost," Sierra asked in concern. She was suspicious.Why was she acting guardedly around her?"No ma'am, I'm all good," Natasha said and forc
In the Steels mansion...Sierra Steel was a light skinned girl with a slim but perfect figure. She had a long, black hair which seemed to bloom and complemented her beautiful face. She was a good description of delicate beauty. She had a face that entranced men and eyes so beautiful when they landed on someone. Her lips looked so tempting and red like the Italian cultural wine.She was dressed like a princess. She wore a blue ball gown which made her blue eyes sparkle and her curly black hair was looking so radiant. She put on black heels to compliment her hair as she held her blue purse.She was looking so elegant. No one could resist her beauty..she couldn't go anywhere without everyone staring at her.However, she was a gentle and reserved girl unlike her father. Her father usually said she looked just like her mom. But Sierra didn't grow up to know her mom. According to what she was told, her mom died after giving birth to her.Ever since then she had been daddy's little prince
Sierra left the bubbly atmosphere in the room where music was being played and everyone was enjoying the party. She stood outside in the patio, away from everyone.She was so pissed."What do they take me for? I already have to marry him against my wish." She complained, "Why do I need to live with him?"She was really angry that such a suggestion was made. Probably it was because she didn't want to lose control over her decisions. Having accepted her father's offer to marry Zeke, she already lost control over her marriage.She couldn't afford been led by the nose like that. So she thought of excuses why she couldn't move in with him..She leaned on the patio and contemplated. Her exams were in two weeks time. And she would have to travel to London to take them. She just had to lie to dad and prolong her stay.She stayed outside for some time, staring at the beautiful garden..After she had enough, she walked back into the hall. Everyone seemed to be having a great time.She looked ar
There were no hitches during her bath. After she finished her bath, she walked to her closet, only to see him going through her stuff.Sierra immediately exploded with anger."What the heck. Don't you have any respect for privacy?" she stomped towards him, already extremely pissed. She was already being patient all these while. She was being tolerant since his father was friends with hers. Moreover, he wasn't a prick like his son. But, she couldn't endure it any longer. The man merely looked over her shoulder casually as he said, "Well, it's not. You're my wife."He picked up a black bra and placed it in front of his chest. Then, he whistled, muttering in a sing song voice, "I never knew your breasts were this big."Sierra saw red. She raised her hand up in fury, about to slap him. But he caught her hand and pulled her over, making her fall directly on him. Again.He looked at her and pursed his lips. "You know I've been trying to be nice. But you don't seem to be very accommodat
Sierra and Nora went up to her room because that was the only place they could get the peace they wanted.Nora wasn't surprised at the beauty and largeness of Sierra's room. It had always been a custom for her to have all things extra.Sierra's room was designed by her father himself. She had her own veranda, a big bathroom, a queen sized bed. She also had a well stocked closet and lounge.It was as big as a house itself.Ever since Sierra's mom died, her dad had always made her happy. She got anything she wanted anytime she wanted it.Sierra had the latest shoes, the latest Gucci and Hermes bags. Her closet was like a boutique. Her father always went over board.Back to the present.Nora walked into Sierra's bedroom. Although she was already expecting it to be big and fancy, but she couldn't help but gasp at the beauty of the room."Wow. Sierra, this room is beautiful." She said sitting on the bed and proceeded to lie on it."Well, daddy designed it himself." Sierra replied as she br
