Christopher woke up with an unusual headache, he reluctantly dragged himself up from the bed, he did his morning rituals and prepared for work.
Chris found it hard to sleep last night as he kept on thinking about Naomi Browne, the mysterious lady who effortlessly stole his heart. The only thing that kept him sane was the fact that he assured himself that Ruben was going to get all her information for him today and he would be able to reach out to her. He didn’t mind taking time off work and travelling to wherever she was to see her.
The situation got worse as soon as Vivian left Christopher’s office. He could not concentrate on the work he had to do as he kept on replaying the conversation with Vivian on his head. As a result of that, he decided to retire to his apartment earlier than usual.Christopher couldn't imagine how much his life had changed in 72 hours. He met Naomi, the first person he ever felt something for and then, she disappeared before he knew it and now that he was close to finding her and making her his, Vivian showed up with unexpected news.
“Hello, Rita.” Naomi greeted her brother’s receptionist. Rita was almost the same age as Naomi but a little taller than Naomi.“Naomi, it’s been a while. How are you?” She asked with a smile.“Fine and you?”“I’m good too. Luis will be very hap
Naomi curled up on the white sofa in the living room. She was already in her nightwear and her laptop was balanced on her lap. She was going through the pictures from the photoshoot she did earlier today.She had to give her opinion on them and decide which one she liked best which will be considered by the Board of Zick Cosmetics.Zick cosmetics was a popular cosmetic company in California; they recently signed a deal with Naomi to be their Brand Ambassador and Influencer.
Naomi had been anxious all day, She barely had any sleep last night, She could not help but think about today. Not only would she be seeing Ryan, but he would also be spending the weekend with her, in her apartment.Luckily for Naomi, Fridays’ wasn’t really much of a busy day for her. By 1 pm, she was through with everything she had on her to-do list including the meeting she thought was going to last longer so she had the rest of the day to herself to prepare for Ryan’s arrival.
As soon as they approached her car, Naomi assisted Ryan in placing his luggage in the trunk of the car. She was on her way to the driver’s seat when she noticed Ryan beside her; He opened the door for her.She chuckled, “You know you didn't have to?”He shrugged with a smile.She smile
Naomi had the best sleep she has ever had in awhile. With Ryan’s hand around her waist, she felt like she belonged to him, She felt like home.Naomi slowly opened her eyes, she panicked as soon as she noticed she was the only one on the bed; Ryan was nowhere to be found beside her.She felt at ease as soon as she sighted a note with a rose on top, placed on her nightstand. She wrapped the white blanket around her naked body and reached for the note and rose.
“What do you want for dinner? I feel like having Pizza along with a cold drink. Is that okay with you?” She asked him before swiping her key card to open the door.“Sure, that’s fine.” He assured, walking into her apartment.Naomi reached for her phone in her purse, dialled a pizza shop and ordered for three boxes.
As soon as those words left Luis’s mouth, Naomi went pale. She didn’t want to believe what her brother just said about Ryan.With a shocked expression, she looked at her brother who was standing opposite her, his eyes were red and she could see his chest rising and falling, showing how angry he was.Reluctantly She turned to Ryan and Pleaded with a teary voice. “Please tell me it’s not true.”
