ReneeI didn't see any of my friends in class today which tells me one thing.They indeed got laid. Just Thinking about it made me smile. She deserves it.After that stupid guy dumped her. This was the first time she sounded so lively and bubbly like the real she I used to know.I hung my bag on the wall, before taking off my jacket. I set the timer on the microwave and hopped in the shower.Still in my towel, I sat on my bed and took out my laptop so I could finish my term paper. It's due tomorrow.I finished at the same time with my food, it wasn't much. I had done most of the work — just the last chapter and conclusion that was remaining.I took my phone out and dialed Edward’s number again but still the voicemail. My eyes landed on his friends’ contacts. I followed them one after the other, calling but all went to voicemail and that's when I know all is not well.The last time he pulled some shit like this, he called from the police station. I remember him telling me he was going
ReneeIt was as if my limbs grew a mind of their own because no matter how I tried to move, It wasn't working and they were rooted to that spot.My eyes followed all his movements from the hips to how his cock thrust into the lady from behind.Is this the lab practical? Or it's me that's not understanding anything.The lady kept screaming, “Oh fuck, fuck me. I love you so much.” With each word she uttered.His face contorted in pleasure as she threw every thrust back at him, his hand snaked around her waist to grab her tits and suck them from behind.The air was sucked out of me and It was becoming hard for me to breathe, my brain was fuzzy and my vision became blurry.All I could feel was the tears rolling down my cheek, my whole body was shaking like a leaf, it was as if my heart had been pulled out of my chest because of how empty I felt.The knot in my stomach tightened with each thrust he delivered.The cold I was feeling on my fingertips traveled to my heart.My mind was hammeri
ReneeMy head whipped to see whose hand was holding mine.It was the girl he just fucked.I stared at her with a raised brow, waiting for an explanation or a release of my hand.But then she opened her mouth, “Why are you hitting him? When you are supposed to be happy that he had someone giving him sex.” “What?” I asked, dumbfounded.Is she joking with me right now?But then she wasn't done, “Yes, you should be happy since you have refused to give him sex and he has to get it from somewhere. Be happy he still wants to be with you. Don't you know you have no value for him?"“What?” I looked at him, “did you go around telling people I have refused to have sex with you?” The way his eyes avoided mine, told me what I wanted to know. “Edward, I am asking you a question.”“Well, it's true. I didn't lie.” He muttered defensively.An unbelievable Laughter bubbled out of my throat before I scoffed, “Wow, you are something else, you know? You went around telling people I have refused you sex…”
IvorI needed to work on this project with Cox Architecture but my mind kept drifting as I stared blankly on the same page over and over again.Thoughts of her kept intruding on my focus like an uninvited guest.Glancing from page to page but I wasn't understanding anything and my anger was quickly rising to the surface.My fist bangs the desk, venting my frustration on it making all the stuff on it rattled.My eyes shut tightly and I held my head in both my hands, trying to get myself together so I could concentrate.“Mr. Walker?” Monica's voice jolted me back to reality.I lifted my head to see her hovering over me, and I didn't know when she came in. “How long have you been standing there?” I asked her.Her tits jiggled and my eyes followed it before coming back to settle on her face. I know she's doing it on purpose but I won't play her games.“You must be lost in thought, Mr Walker. Is something bothering you?” I can help you.” She moved closer and her tits were almost on my fac
Ivor“I am so sorry, Sir.” She starts fidgeting.‘What's she sorry about?’ I wondered.“Why are you sorry? I just asked you a question.” She was silent…“Why are you sorry? Monica, what did you do?” I asked with a deadly calm in my tone.And she knows when I use that tone, things are about to get bloody.“Sir, she didn't accept them. In Fact, she wasn't there to receive it. She only sends her friend to tell the delivery guy that she is not interested.” She rushed out all in one breath.I sigh, frustration gnawing at me as I pinch the bridge of my nose.She is really going too far. I felt my patience wearing thin and my anger simmering. It's just a matter of time before I storm that school and drag her out.I heard Monica's voice again, “Sir, maybe she doesn't like it. I suggest you try something else.”How could she not like it? She is just being Renee and this is a little out of her hand work when she is angry.“No. She just doesn't want to talk to me, else, those gifts were her fav
ReneeI didn't wait for my change and bolted to my room, the sound of my own ragged breathing filled my ears as the tears I was holding back now rolled down in waves.My gaze was downcasted and I didn't see Annie and Jessica waiting for me by the door.Until Annie held my hand and took the key from me as I was struggling to open the door.“Are you okay?” She mouthed to me, glancing around to see if anyone was watching before she opened the door.We all went in and settled on the bed and I was finally able to let go.The sobs racked through me in folds and I wasn't able to hold myself, my body was shaking vigorously from the intensity of the cry and my heart was tearing apart.“Hey, what's wrong?” Annie asked, moving closer to me, her hand going to my back to pacify me, “Is everything alright? Where did you go?” She threw in another question.But all I could do was shake my head, unable to form any words.I felt the other side of the bed dipped and Jessica moved closer and pulled my hea
Renee I was too blind to see it…I recalled when we had our first fight all because of him — and we ended up going the whole semester without speaking to each other. Now I feel really stupid just thinking about it.“You know what? Let me run you a bath then we'll order something to eat and you can bawl your eyes out while eating.” Annie said, standing up from my vanity seat, “ Jess what do you think?” “That'll be awesome. Let me order some pizza.” she replied, fishing out her phone. “pepperoni or veggies?”“Pepperoni.” We both said at the same time.“Alright Ren, go take a hot shower and your pajamas will be on the bed when you come out.” She helped me out of the bed and pushed me to the bathroom. I didn't want to shower but it's Annie and she doesn't take no for an answer.My mind was still replaying the scene over and over again. My eyes shut tightly as I tried to shut my brain but it was working.Think of anything good Ren, good memories, think, think… My eyes were still shut
IvorMonica hadn't said anything since she came back from the school which only meant one thing.Renee was still being stubborn and I've had enough of it. I wonder what she said to Monica.I would have made a trip to their school if I had not been so swamped with work.The outside world is currently bright and the big clock sounds, an indication that it's noon.My phone rang, drawing me from the paper I was looking at, my eyes narrowed as I wondered who could be jobless enough to distract me by this time of the day.My eyes roamed across the office searching for it until it landed on it sitting on the center table.I left my seat to go check who decided to disturb my work. My fingers swiped it and it's Jerome.My brows knitted together in confusion, unsure of why he was calling me.“Hello, Jerome,” I said, bringing the phone to my ear.“Hi, buddy. How are you doing? Are you good? How's business going?” he asked all in one breath. Leave it to Jerome to ask so many questions in one sent
Ivor No, he'll laugh his ass off and I will never hear the end of it from him.What would I even say? I kissed my goddaughter and I liked it. That's so fucked up.How do I tell my friend that I think I'm falling for my best friend's daughter He will straight up tell me he was right all along. That's how my day went with me contemplating if I should tell him or not.It took every willpower to finish my work for the day and by then, I had come to a decision.Tell him… so I called him to meet up at the same bar yesterday as I was leaving the company.***“So?” He gave a curious look.“So?” I said not getting him.“You sounded serious on the phone earlier. What's the problem?” And I was speechless — not knowing where to start from, I decided to take the bull by the horn.“How do you feel dating your friend's daughter?” He choked on the water he was drinking — I already told him, no taking alcohol today as I wanted to talk so he settled for water.“What? Why would I date my friend's
Ivor Lance drove me to work today and this is the first time I have been to the company since the incident. My staff welcomed me with smiles, flowers, and the like, which Monica and James collected and I headed over to my office.Monica was reading my schedule for the day — I didn't know who permitted her to resume after the suspension.But I have definitely forgiven her so I brushed it off.“Lastly Sir, there are people…” she didn't finish when the elevator opened and my eyes landed on not ten, twenty, or thirty people standing in front of my office — all dressed in suits.From all indications — they are investors. They all straightened up as they saw me.I turned to her, sending a hard glare her way — making sure she got my message.“I am sorry Sir. They insisted on seeing you and I thought with them on our side now. Our company's stock will rise above all other companies.” She explained.She's not wrong about the stock but wrong about me wanting to collaborate with them.I faced
Renee “Uncle Ivor. Are you inside?” I have been knocking for a few seconds now and no response.The house was also quiet. After my outburst and argument with Monica. I have been in my room, not wanting to be disturbed.Angry at myself for letting Monica get into my head again but more sad for her being damn right about it.He would never believe me if I told him it was her — he trusted her too much to believe it anyway since I don't have any proof. I decided to check how he was doing after his confrontation with the FBI and to clean his wound but upon entering his room.I found it empty — and the lingering scent of perfumes in the air, letting me know he's out but where could he have gone to?He didn't tell me he was going out.I left his room and went downstairs and that's when I saw Lance heading out in a hurry.“Hey Lance. Where are you going?” I rushed to meet up with him.“I am going to pick up Boss. Go back inside.” Like hell, I will.“Where? Where did he go? Is he okay? Is e
IvorAfter mentally running through all my options, I decided to call Monica. “Get all the employees' bio-data to my house,” I said and hung up.At the same time, the men came in with a cleaned-up Harrison, with one side of his face disfigured — my fist really did a number on him.“No, don't strap him.” They stopped and let him sit like that.“Now are you ready to give me a name? Trust me when I say, killing you would be like a walk in the park and I've got nothing to lose — same as pinnacle Global and this person you are trying to protect.” I tried to coax him but was met with the same level of stubbornness.“Mr… Walker…” he struggled to speak, his swollen lips and bruised jaw making every word a painful effort. “I… made a promise… to this person… that their name… will never be out…” he winced, a faint groan left his lips as he tried to continue. “And the reason… I told you… about the company… was because… they betrayed me…” his chest heaved with the effort, his breathing labored. “I
Ivor“Are you sure about it?” I asked Silas again while pulling my zipper up.“Yes, I am. That's where he has been hiding and he has only had one recurring visit all this time.” He explained.“Alright, thanks, man.” I threw the phone into my pocket and walked out of my room.Petals came out of nowhere, bumping into me. “Ouch. That hurt.” She winced before her demeanor changed when she noticed my outfit.“Where are you going?” I contemplated telling her the truth or not but deep down I know she'll end up worrying about me all day if I don't tell her now.“I just got off the phone with Silas and he told me about Harrison's whereabouts so that's where I am going.”“Alone?” she asked, rushing after me to the garage.“Yes,” “How about you take security with you?” Her voice waver and I know what's coming next.I turned and sharply cupped her chin, making her look me in the eye. “Look, I will be fine.” “What…” she inhales and exhales, trying to keep her tears at bay. “What if he has peopl
ReneeShe walked into the house like nothing happened — like she didn't just sabotage someone's life.Someone she claims to love…I have been thinking all through yesterday — trying to understand what made her go that route but no tangible reasons could make her so vengeful like that.My anger was palpable as I watched her walk down the stairs till she was about to pass me. I grabbed her hand and dragged her to the patio.“What… What are you doing? Let me go.” She yelled out in surprise before jerking her hand away. “What's wrong with you?” “You wanna tell me something?” I faced her till we were chest to chest.She looked genuinely surprised or she's just good at hiding it — and I will go with the latter.“Tell you what? What are you onto?” She asked, moving back about.“What you were talking about yesterday?” I gave her a knowing look and realization dawned on her face but vanished as quickly as it came.“What… what do you mean?” she stuttered“I don't know. That conversation where
Renee “Yes, sorry about that Uncle Ivor. I needed to talk to Jeremy about something.” “Ok,” He tried to stand up and I rushed to help him but he held out his hand to stop me. “Stop, I am fine. I can stand up on my own.” Scowl at him, I mumbled. “Well, that's not what you said earlier.” He turns to me with a sharp look. “ I heard that and it's not funny.”Shit, was it too loud?“I didn't say anything.” I shrug.“don't act as if you didn't just mock me with the ‘that’s not what you said earlier.’ line.” He said mimicking my voice and facial expression and I couldn't contain my laughter anymore.“Uncle Ivor. It's like you are fi…” I didn't finish that before he was falling and at the speed of light… I supported his weight.“See? You can't even stand on your own.” I helped him to his room and ran a bath for him. “Take a shower and get the blood off you so we know where the bandaid needs to be.”He just nodded and went into the bathroom and my mind started wandering again… not now. I
Renee Seeing that he was already deep, I slipped out of his tight hold and put a pillow in my place, he grabbed it immediately like he was afraid of losing me. The sight made warmth fill my heart.I need to go find Jeremy and talk to him — at least he should explain what the hell was happening. Why would Ivor react like that? Was it just about the framing stuff or are there other things that I didn't know?I emerge in Ivor's bedroom to see it sparkling neat – no shattered glasses and all the furniture he destroyed has been replaced with new ones but they are not the same as the old ones.I walked out of his bedroom and entered mine to find it empty. Jeremy is nowhere in sight.‘where could he have gone?’ I wonder, making my way downstairs.What I didn't expect was to find a woman that looked like Monica on the stairs, it was the voice that made me realize she was the one. ‘But what's she doing here? Isn't she suspended?’ I thought with no answer.She still hasn't noticed me which te
Monica“You are suspended till further notice.” That's what kept ringing in my ear as I entered my high-end one-bedroom apartment in New York City.I could afford this apartment thanks to the big fat salary I receive from Walker cooperatives. I don't even want to start imagining what it'll be like not working there anymore.It's all her fault… that bitch slimy creature that's always clinging onto him. I don't get why he let her stay with him when she's not his daughter.My heart was palpitating with anger as I squeezed the plastic cup I just finished drinking water with. At least he should have asked for my side of the story before sending me away like that.It's not fair… but I'll keep on calling him till he's ready to talk to me. He needs me in the company so he can't get rid of me that easily.My mind became calm after this thought and I went on with my day, finding things to do to avoid sitting idle and thinking about my miserable situation.Now, who do I even blame — Maria for gi
