My Rival's Desire Missing Files
The week ran by in a Flash, despite her promising to call for Frost on Sunday, she did not. But for the sake of blah blah blah, she called him on Tuesday. They spoke briefly before she hung up.She started working as Fabiola McDarryl, The secretary, again. Brant had insisted that she join the board of directors, but she'd refused categorically, also because she did not want unwanted attention from his father, not yet. But she was considering doing that the coming week. Well, Brant had also fired the Mise brothers from the board, stating that he wanted their boss and not them. Well, the poor brothers had no idea that their boss, whom they were protecting her identity, had sold them and was the same woman standing behind the CEO as his secretary.Speaking of Mr. White, he invited her to fill in for his secretary on two occasions that week…lunch meetings.Brant was nervous about it all, mostly because he thought she might stab his father or poison the old man before Brant got the cha
My Rival's Desire Act of seduction
"Brantley?" She yelled and stared at him in horror."Sleepy head," he flashed her his signature nerve-wracking smile.She punched his nose. He stumbled off the bed like a log of wood and landed on the carpeted floor."Ouch!" He yelled like a kid.She giggled."I think you broke my nose." He complained, using his finger to poke his nose in different spots to make sure he still had a full functioning nose.She offered him a hand. He grabbed it. She pulled him up back in bed."What are you doing in my bed?" She asked."Good afternoon and Happy Sunday to you too." He replied instead.She rolled her eyes."Just answer my question, intruder." She playfully snapped."I missed you, isn't that reason enough?" He traced his fingertips on her soft cheeks.Those butterflies in her tummy wanted to fly out free again, she held them back."Are you blushing?" He asked, without filtering his words.She blushed even harder, "Leave!" She struggled to push him away, while turning her face to conceal her
My Rival's Desire Make love to me
"I would not be responsible for what comes next." He threatened.She wanted to tease him again but decided against it.He poured a generous amount of bathing gel on his hand and gently applied it on her back. His strong palms grazed the contours of her back diligently with minimum pressure.She relaxed back and tilted her head back."And here I thought that you could do it by yourself." Brantley teased. His hands caressed the crook of her shoulders gently, making way to her chest and back simultaneously.Her hair was pushed to the side, she quickly spun her head to stare at him, distributing her hair evenly on both sides of her shoulders."What did you just say?" She asked."What did you hear?" He asked back.She smiled, "Looks like you have been the one bathing me for the past twenty seven years, huh?" She asked sarcastically.He chuckled and nodded.He leaned down and stole a kiss before she could turn her face. Her whole body was soapy, oh and naked too. It took all rationality le
My Rival's Desire Brenda's Injury
"This is not a toy." She said, taking off the bullets and partially dismantling the gun. Just in case his itchy hands decided to touch the pistol again.She did not ask him how the hell he got hold of it, at least, he did not put the bullet in his body."Don't bother, I'll cover it up with a tarpaulin, just in case it rains at night." She explained calmly when she noticed his eyes drifting from her to her ventilated roof."Thank you." He finally opened his mouth. His words came out in a whisper. He looked cute."You should be happy that, that was not your head." She secured the weapon in her bedside cupboard, she could not keep it far away too. It was meant for defense."No, thank you for not returning with a knife, or another gun." That fright was gone, only for it to be replaced by a mischievous grin on his face."Well, you had your eyes open, so…" she decided to play along.They laughed it off.She got into the sheets and laid by his side.She could not get the idea of the missing
My Rival's Desire The Cancer Patient
"She broke her two limbs, she's in surgery. The doctor said she'll be fine,but would probably need to continue using a wheelchair even after the six months healing period." Mrs White explained."Hey Fabiola, I love your hair." One of the twins whispered to Fabiola. The girls were actually warm, she did like them, but unfortunately, she could not get close to them. Their father still is her enemy."Thank you, you've got great hair too." She replied the teen."Yeah, but I don't have curls, my own hair is straight and won't curl no matter how hard I try." The girl complained.Well, she and Mila were almost the same height. Mila leaned down slightly, "Some things, you can not change. You just have to accept it as it is because that is what makes you beautiful. I stopped trying to get my hair straight when I discovered that, me, in straight hair, is a completely different person. Your straight hair is what makes you beautiful, ok?" Mila went in full time big sis mode."Do you think I am

My Rival's Desire Uncle Melo's Secret 2
"Ok, I'm all ears. What kind of investment are we talking about?" Linda asked attentively."Casino." "What? Casino?" Linda asked in utter bamboozlement. "Hold up, which among the two of them sort to buy or build a casino or invest in a casino.... Whatever?" Linda leaned forward."Uncle Melo. He wanted to buy a particular piece of land and erect a Casino?" Linda shook her head. "I don't get how this connects us to anything, or how it might be related to his death. I see why the cops slashed it out. But what I want to know is; why would a man like Uncle Melo want a Casino. He could build anything he wished, a hospital…even a church. But why a casino?" Linda asked."Those are questions nobody thought of asking.""Let me guess, your Father was not d'accord with the idea?" "Yes, that is what Mr McGraw said in his statement. My father argued that a Casino was not a bad idea to generate money, but it did not just suit their reputation." Brant explained."But what was more interesting was t

"That might look like any ordinary emerald or gem, but taking a closer look, it isn't just any gemstone. That is a Painite." Randy explained."A pain… what?" Linda asked."A painite," Randy repeated patiently. He took the laptop and played his fingers on the keyboard.He turned the screen so that she was able to view it."A Painite, the rarest and most expensive gemstone to ever be discovered…." She read it out loud."Hold up! I have tons of questions, but first, how the hell would something that rare magically appear in this part of the country? And whoever discovered it, why did the person not mine it? And how does it involve erecting a Casino?" Linda bombarded both men with a queue of questions."Your secretary is not on seat sir?" Randy turned to Brantley, totally ignoring Linda's bucket of questions."Just answer my question!" She yelled.Both men looked at her as though she was losing it."She probably went out to grab a bite, check if she is back and let her know not to interr
