His Secret Obsession A White Lie
PEARL’S POV~I looked at his face, confused, something about him felt oddly familiar and that kiss.Why has everyone chosen me to spar for a kissing contest?First Nico and now August.I stepped away from him, and in the corner of my eye, I saw Jason storm out of the house.He glared at me for a while before stepping closer, a look of dread hung over him.“Watch out for that bitch up there, she’ll cut you off when you no longer hold value” he hissed before spitting close to me.August quickly pulled me away from the thick plemgh marinating in the sand.We watched him storm away before he turned to me, “what the hell was that about?” he asked, his hand still holding mine tightly.“I have no idea, but I have a feeling I'll find out soon” I replied looking up at where Tilly’s room lay bright.Did I make a mistake bringing Tilly in? Wrapping her in all this mess with Nico?And now im going to ruin her relationship with her boyfriend.I soon heard footsteps hurrying out, we turned and it w

NICO'SPOV~With my bare feet smacking the cold tile, I ran along the dark hospital corridor, my pulse racing. I became even more desperate as Sophie's frightened cries rang in my ears. With tears running down her cheeks and strained breath, and i had no idea why the sound of her in danger triggered me.I was jacked up like a angry bear, her helpless cries for me weakened me in ways i never thought were ever possible 5 minutes ago. Lola raced next to me, her little feet trying to keep up.“Stay behind, you are pregnant!” i cautioned her.“No im coming with you!” stubborn as the day i met her."There! He is on his way to the emergency escape”. A scared nurse pointed to a dark figure at the far end of the hallway and screamed loudly calling the attention of the security men.Sophie's small arms flailed as the masked kidnapper carried her like a rag doll. She was calling for me while crying."Stop!" The man didn't hesitate when I yelled at him. A gurney crashed into a queue of medical t

Pearl’s pov~Back at the residence, Lorenzo couldn't hold it in once we were in my office.With his furious eyes fixed on me like a predator sizing up its prey, Lorenzo slammed the door behind him.“You want to tell me what the hell is going on Pearl? He put you in charge of his money, not his entire life! I had to hear from my spies in this place that the boss was in a coma. “What the hell were you thinking not informing me? I'm his right hand! ” he snarled, his voice low enough to be lethal.I was quiet at first, trying to conjure up an excuse for not telling him, but I knew the truth and it was because I'd seen him with Camille, still I wasn't ready to confront that matter yet.I crossed my arms, not going to give up.“Speak!” Lorenzo banged his hand on the table, startling my tongue loose. "I handled it, that's all you've got to know Adam and I…..”He laughed, but I could tell it was laced with anger to simply snap my neck in two. “And who made you judge and executioner? You h

PEARL’S POV~ I had to take a breath. I needed a moment of clarity because the walls of mystery and deceit were closing in on me.The sweet scent of the morning cocoa on my table turned my stomach as soon as Tilly walked in with a smile.“Good morning boss” she greeted, I gave her a quick nod and sipped my hot cocoa.I‘d crossed the line when I asked her to be Nico’s wife, what the hell was I thinking?“Are you okay?” she asked setting the file in her hand on my table.“im fine I just have a bad taste in my mouth. That’s all, Anything new?” I asked looking at her, I had to give off a neutral look, she couldn't know that I knew she’d been naughty.And with Nico...Something else about the way she’d say we shouldn't have killed Sophie’s attacker irked me.“Okay, well, um Winter’s tech has agreed to hear our terms, they want to meet us by 10, so I hope…”“Make it a private meeting. Tell Mr. Winters I accept his invitation to his residence and that I’ll be coming alone,” I interrupted.Sh

Pearl’s pov~August's phone message had served as a lead, a single, traceable link that had brought us to this point.A fancy lounge in upper Manhattan. Dark velvet booths, dim lighting, and the lingering aroma of aged scotch. A location where, amid clinking drinks and cautious looks, secrets were exchanged like currency.And Logan my ex-husband, not surprisingly, was sitting in the middle of it all.He was lounging in the VIP area as if he owned the place like he did every other thing in my life, glad that’s now a thing of the past. I saw him before he saw me.At my side, August was examining Logan with his eyes fixed on him. He'd heard he could be an asshole to me in the past, even though I didn't know how he knew.It made me suspicious.The way he kept his hands close to his belt, seemingly ready for anything, gave me a sense of his calm stress. Logan paused as his gaze fell on me and raised his glass to his lips. “Pearl is that you?” I heard his arrogant voice call.I ignored

Before Devina’s big charity event, I made a stop at New Hope General, nico had been invited to this event it's only right that I tell him where im off to.The hospital smell greeted me first before memories of Sophie's almost abduction hit me, I sighed it's been one hell after the next since I met her father.I gathered my gown and closed the jacket around me firmly before opening the door leading to Nico’s private suite.Nico sat upright in his hospital bed, his dark eyes locked onto me like I was the first bit of light he’d seen in days. I almost blushed until I remembered he didnt even know who I was.The bruises on his face had faded, but the intensity in his gaze was unforgettable."Pearl," he said, voice low, almost like a warning, his eyes didnt leave the curves of my peach dress, devina had sent the invitation and the dress code had almost made me puke, almost like I was getting ready to go to a juice mixer party. "You're staring." I started, sitting opposite him, he shook h

PEARL’S POV~It was almost like a cat-and-mouse chase with us, Logan had pointed him out and August and I had jumped at the chance to meet our tormentor.But he was hiding in plain sight, and soon everyone had their masks on, “a masquerade event, Devina knew exactly what she was doing!” I fumed, trying to spot Langdon in the crowd but he eluded me.I saw him as soon as Logan pointed him out, he was wearing a smart black suit, and a smooth Venetian mask, which covered his face except for his mouth and a big surprise followed.I'd been expecting an African American man but instead, he was caucasian.He wore thin black gloves, and with ease, he gripped a champagne flute.I recognised him despite the mask, nothing could hide from me right now, not when im this determined to know why he won't stop coming after Nico and me.I had followed rumours about his name for too long to be duped now.However, he disappeared into the crowd each time I attempted to approach, vanishing like mist among d

TILLY’S POV~"Hasn't she been incredibly... ambitious?" Devina started, her beautiful lips curled in a devilish sneer.“ DM Holdings is being taken over. Operating it as though she belonged there,” she sneered, and I rolled my eyes in agreement.Logan grinned. But you see, Tilly, people like her don't last very long. They become overconfident and careless, and I can't afford that,” he said, turning to see if Pearl was still very much occupied, and she was.I maintained a neutral expression. "And? What’s that got to do with me?"Devina took a step forward, her perfume heavy and oppressive as it lingered in the air and beyond.“She’s inexperienced; she has spent a better part of the last few years being a housewife; she doesn't know what she’s doing,” Logan stated.I smiled I knew where they were heading, but I waited for them to say it.“We need someone capable of assisting us.”... Devina pointed to the heads of industries who had now circled Pearl in admiration.My heartbeat quickened

His Secret Obsession A WILL AND A WAY
Pearl’s pov~The day of the pageant finally came. August was by my side as usual; he never left my side, not for one day.“Are you ready?” he asked, kissing my lips gently.I shivered under his touch. “Yeah, I am,” I smiled.“You don't have to do it if you don't want to,” he smiled back.“How are you okay with all of this, August? I'm a married woman with a baby on the way. It feels too good to be true,” I said, touching his long hair.All he did was look at me intensely and smile.“I'm not worried about anything; as long as we are together, I'm fine,” he said.“Oh August, I honestly don't deserve you,” I continued before touching his face.But all I wanted to hear at that moment was Pearlita…He took my hand and helped me up. He looked at me and he was awestruck. “You look so stunning, Pearl, so beautiful. Are you ready for your first debut? You are, after all, the face of DM Holdings,” he bragged.“No, that’s a lie Devina, all of a sudden I'm the evil mistress who won't let the ex g
His Secret Obsession TRUE FEELINGS
Devina’s pov~I read the headline again, Rival partner Logan Davis Malone offers his 5million dollar yatch to ceo Pearl D’Angelo for peagent, amidst separation rumours from his pregnant fiancée, Miss Devina Daniels.“He did what?” I crumpled the newspaper in my hands and threw it to the ground. My sister came from around the corner, her eyes bright from her early morning jog.“What’s got you so worked up?” she asked, I fumed and pointed to the crumpled up paper on the floor beside her feet.She leaned down to pick it up, she read it and she laughed.“What’s so funny?” I asked trying to get up with my 37 weeks old belly.“Well I did tell you shitvwas going to hit the fan sooner or later, why on earth did you leave?” my sister Desiree asked, “It was getting to dangerous, I was involved in some diabolical shit I had to skip town” I replied.“Then maybe stop worrying about it and focus on your baby” she replied putting her ear pods away.“This is serious Desiree, there’s a bitch on my as
His Secret Obsession ULTRASOUNDS OF CONFUSION
PEARL’S POV~CHAPTER: Ultrasound & Unraveling“You ratted me out to Kenji!” came a thunderous roar, Sophie was startled.I turned around and there she was Akira Watanabe, a ghost from my past. She looked furious, bloodthirsty anger surged through her, and Sophia looked scared.“Can we talk in the hallway you are scaring her” I always felt uneasy in hospitals because there was too much quietness for such painful places. With my palm lying over my bloated stomach, I strolled alone across the clean hallway. Kira was in a downward spiral about something, something I had no hand in.“What the hell are you talking about Akira?” I asked.She scoffed “back to formalities now are we?” she asked, “you are scaring my child,” I retorted.“Which of them because from the look of things you and Nico have been busy” she spat.“Why are you here Kira? You wanted nothing to do with me, remember? So why are you here?”“Did you rat me out to Kenji?” she asked. I was shocked by her statement, “how the h
His Secret Obsession FORGED DEALS AND ALLIANCES
NICO’S POV~I waited for Adam at the usual spot for over 3 hours, and the bastard didn't show up. This was his usual shenanigans, and I wasn't up for it.I turned to leave when I noticed a black sedan heading in my direction. I stopped and waited, hoping it was my sleek consigliere driving towards me.The car stopped in front of me, and he got out. He wore a black suit with a pink tie. I sighed. Something about him will always tick me off.“Hi, boss,” he greeted before extending an arm to me. “Adam, you said it was urgent? What the hell is so urgent that you couldnt tell me over the phone” Someone like Adam shouldn't have been noticed in the alley behind La Rue d'Or. His smell was too refined, his outfit too immaculate. However, he remained unflinching when the shadows shifted and I appeared like a menacing specter dressed in pricey wool."You're late to your own fucking meeting, Adam!" I stated in a foreboding tone.Adam looked at his timepiece. "No, I'm not. You simply lack patienc
His Secret Obsession Sophie’s Good news
PEARL’S POV~I wasnt going to rest, no not when a vulture perched and waited for my carcass at my doorstep, with Camille gone, the D’angelo mansion was eerily still.Which made me wonder, what if camille never really left, this house used to belong to Langdon moseley, and cammile and her dead sister grew up here.So what if somehow she was still here, I reached for my phone and called August.“Hey, Pearl, sleep okay?” he asked. I sighed, “Yesterday was wild even for me but I had to do it, im watching TV right now and all I can see is my epic failure as a CEO, some people are saying I resigned to be a supermodel” I managed a small laugh.“In your condition, I don't think it's safe enough for you to keep engaging in risky situations,” he said.“I know that August, trust me but I'll never get the peace I deserve with Camille still out there, where is she now?” I asked “Give me a second let me check, she hadnt moved from the funeral place before i slept off” he yawned.“Were you up all n
His Secret Obsession THE WIDOW IN BIKINI
Pearl's POV~They say Grief only knows how to wear black. I said, Fuck it, and I decided to go with red.It was audacious, and people whispered before I had uttered a word, their eyes pressed on the slippery silk that hugged every curve. A pageant launch wasn't usually held at a funeral, but I wasn't your average widow. Camille was aware that Nico wasn't dead. But she was willing to take that chance to see him one last time if, truly, she was obsessed with him.Throwing my husband a funeral despite knowing he was alive would make her curious enough to know if Nico is truly dead.The headlines were already half written: *CEO Widow Honors Late Husband Nicolas D’Angelo. It was part trap and part theater. "Pearl," Adam called from beside me, adjusting the gold-trimmed suit I had asked him to wear. "This feels insane," he criticized with a shake of his head."That's the idea," I replied with a gentle smile, pinning a crimson carnation to his lapel. "We need Camille to feel comfortabl
His Secret Obsession The raw Truth
Pearl’s pov~I saw him finally reach for the phone, and the video ended.It was like I was in a trance of some sort after that; soon after, Angelo came in, distracting my thoughts.I was both a priest and a sinner, and I gazed at the screen as though it were a confession booth.Nico's raw, gruff, and remorseful voice blasted through the speakers. Not the smirking, smooth-talking businessman that unnerved everyone. This man was losing his mind.“Pearl, are you ready? They are really calling for your head in there. You have to do or say something to dissuade them. I don't think I can hold them off for too long,” he mentioned before coming closer. “Are you okay? Is it Nico again?” he asked. I saw his hands leaning close to the laptop, and I shut it down.“No, it's nothing, just stunned,” I replied with a nod. “Just a little shaken from the row I'm about to face. With Logan there, who knows how it will turn out? He has been surprisingly calm,” I replied, distracting him from the video.He
His Secret Obsession THE WAY NICO SEES IT
