Nicole barely managed to swerve her car away from the incoming truck.

The car threatened to spiral out of her control, but she gripped the steering wheel hard and jerked it away from the truck that was refusing to stop. The truck scratched the side of her car as it sped past, and Nicole's heart hammered violently in her chest as she slammed her foot on the brake to avoid careening off the road.

Blood rushed into her ears. The truck was gone, but the intensity of what happe

  • Mr Strong, I Refuse To Be Your Duty    Karma?

    “You were absolutely brilliant, my darling. I am so fucking proud of you,” Trisha said on the other end of the phone. Her heart was bursting with love for Asher, and even though he could not see her, Asher had no trouble envisioning how radiant she looked. The plan to take the credit for all the work Zara had been doing for the past two weeks was Trisha’s. After she asked him if he loved her, Asher had immediately wanted to say no. But then he thought about it, and realised that he actually really did love her. Who wouldn’t, he mused?“Thank you, baby. You are the mastermind, after all. It was a brilliant plan. I had no idea why I never thought of it.”Trisha almost cackled with glee at his words. Of course it was a brilliant plan. She knew it was a beautiful, humiliating way to teach Zara a lesson, especially after the woman had had the guts to give Trisha a warning about taking Asher back. “You are welcome, Asher. You are the head of

    Nicole barely managed to swerve her car away from the incoming truck. The car threatened to spiral out of her control, but she gripped the steering wheel hard and jerked it away from the truck that was refusing to stop. The truck scratched the side of her car as it sped past, and Nicole's heart hammered violently in her chest as she slammed her foot on the brake to avoid careening off the road. Blood rushed into her ears. The truck was gone, but the intensity of what happened, of how close she had come to being crushed into paste, made her pale with terror. If she hadn't acted on time, Nicole knew she would have died in the car. There were no two ways about it. The truck would have crushed her and turned her into roadkill.Tears sprang into her eyes as fear slithered through her veins. She was so scared. Hell, she was terrified. Her entire body trembled hard, and no matter how much she tried, Nicole could not stop shaking. “Focus. Yo

  • Mr Strong, I Refuse To Be Your Duty    Backstabbed

    Zara looked up with surprise when Asher knocked on the bedroom door and walked in. She hadn't heard him come in, and had no idea how long he had been in the house. He had been gone for about two weeks since the company incident, and Asher had not made even the tiniest effort to reach out to her. Zara said nothing as he walked towards her, his face clean shaven and betraying nothing of his thoughts. He looked well rested, and there was no sign that anything had been wrong with him for the past few days. “Hi, love,” he started as he stopped at the edge of the bed. Zara cocked her head to the side and refused to speak. What the hell was she supposed to say? What the hell was he expecting her to say?That she was mad at him for leaving her high and dry? That she hated him for consistently cheating on her with a woman she knew? That she…Before she could finish her train of thought though, Asher moved. To Zara

  • Mr Strong, I Refuse To Be Your Duty    The drive

    Nicole waited for William to call her. He didn't. The day at work passed uneventfully, and there was no issue at all. Nobody seemed to know what happened with Marcus and all that unpleasant stuff, and Nicole was glad. Her nerves finally calmed, and her racing heart eased back into its normal rhythm as she worked. William had called her when he got back to the main company that he was no longer on the road, and that he was going to call her later. But it was already the end of work hours, and he still had not called her. It was not entirely unusual, because Nicole knew that things might be busy for him at work. So she refused to panic or stress about it. Instead, she sent him a short text before she left her office, telling him to call her or let her know when she can call. By the time Nicole got home, William still hadn't called her or responded to her text. She took a bath and prepared dinner, glancing at her pho

  • Mr Strong, I Refuse To Be Your Duty    Emergency!

    “Did you do it?” William asked his brother as soon as Wilson walked in. Wilson raised his eyebrows at his tense twin, but said nothing. Instead, he sat down and took a long sip of his coffee before he responded. “William, you do realise that I have been running around all weekend because of you, right? The least you can do is let me have my coffee in peace before asking me any question.”William ran a hand through his hair sheepishly. “You are right. I am so sorry. I don’t know why I am this tense. I just… Nicole was so scared this morning on her way to work. She was so anxious and I hated it. So I just need to know that that bastard has been put away. My baby needs some good news to cheer her up.”Wilson shook his head. “People in love are so annoying,” he muttered, audible enough for his brother to hear, before he leaned back on his chair. “Sit down, take a sip of my coffee and calm down. Then I will talk.” William was high strung wi

  • Mr Strong, I Refuse To Be Your Duty    Do you love me?

    Do you love me?Trisha didn't tell Asher about the call she got from Zara.She had intentionally picked the call in order to make Zara a little bit jealous and maybe make her anxious about her husband being with another woman, but Zara had sounded so completely chill. Like it didn't matter to her anymore. Like she had a plan. And from her last words about the friendly reminder or whatnot, Trisha was sure that Zara was planning something. She ought to be. From the way she was so calm on the call last night, that was the only logical explanation. Zara had a plan, and the thought made Trisha’s blood hot. Resolve tightened in her chest, and as dawn broke through the sky, as the first rays of the sun filtered into the bedroom, Trisha made up her mind. If Zara had a plan to take Asher back, then Trisha had to stop her. It was only rational for Asher to remain with the woman who made him feel at peace the most, t

    When Nicole arrived home, her mother was so excited to see her. The two women hugged each other and her mother said “I expected you to be back yesterday, I was going to call Asher if he heard from you when you arrived” her mother complained, taking her suitcase away from her. “I'm home now. I

    “What was that for? What you saw was nothing. Zara needed my help and I offered to drive her to the company…” he blurted, his cold gaze on her as if she's committed an offence. “I don't know what you're talking about and I didn't see anything either” Nicole snapped back at him. She tried to

  • Mr Strong, I Refuse To Be Your Duty    At the hotel

    Nicole smirked when she read Asher's text."Sorry I couldn't make it to the bridal shop. I've been busy with meetings. Take two weeks off work, look after your mom, and make the wedding plans."If she hadn't left the company when she did, she might still have been waiting for him for hours while he
