Warnings: Mature mind only. Read with caution. “We can even make it a one-time thing.” She said, “We almost did this before...” But she quickly held herself and instead said, "My mom won’t even know a thing, I promise." She said, sounding really desperate. “There’s no way you won’t ask for more, Scarlett,” Adrian argued weakly. “Then I wouldn’t be in the wrong for doing that.” She maintained spiritedly. “I mean, why can’t you just leave my mom and date your age? Or do you think she’s dating only you? She’s got numerous men at her beck and call, and at the end of it all, she’s going to dump you. I am actually the one with the money.” “I don’t care about the money.” Adrian continued stubbornly. “I know this has nothing to do with true love. What exactly do you want from my mom?

View MoreScarlett got to school and as soon as she stepped out of the car, all eyes fell on her. This time around, it wasn't because they were admiring her, it was because of the rumors that had been spreading about her. She didn't spare any of them a look but majestically walked towards her class.“Scarlett!!” She turned around and saw Nelly running towards her. She waited for her to get there and then Nelly started walking with her.“So is it true? You and Ethan?” She asked, unable to stop her curiosity from getting the better of her.Scarlett smiled, “He can continue spreading the rumors, I don't care.” They entered the class together and as expected, all eyes fell on Scarlett. Everyone started to murmur amongst themselves but she didn't mind them and went ahead to take her seat.“She's so shameless honestly, I thought she was different.”“I knew she was pretending, she isn't as tough to get as she puts out. Imagine throwing herself at Ethan!” Scarlett overheard two girls discussing behi
Vivian woke up the next morning and left the hotel in a hurry. She didn't even enjoy the sex that she had last night, the man she called wasn't half as good as Adrian is with his dick. She asked him to leave that same night and then slept over at the hotel.She hurried out of the hotel, heading straight to the company, she had a lot to sort out and she already had a sinking feeling in her stomach. Her heart was racing inside her chest as she wondered who could be working with Rod in the company. He had to be working with someone there for those pictures to have found their way into the documents. Who could be working with Rod and why was that person determined to bring her down? As soon as she got to the company, she got out of her car quickly and went to the financial department first. She asked to meet with the financial manager who came out to see her.“Good morning ma'am.” He greeted.“Good morning. I hope my message was delivered yesterday, concerning a certain contract.” She i
“Scarlett, I really don't know what came over me,” Ethan stated, following Scarlett into the house but she didn't say anything to him until she got to the living room and settled on the couch.“I was drunk and acted stupid, I'm so sorry. Please forgive me.” He continued. She stared at him, not knowing exactly what to say to him. At one point, she blamed her mother and not him, she was the one who drove him to the point of being drunk to stupor by using him and throwing him away. Well, he should have expected it.“Please forgive me, Scarlett.” He repeated and she opened her mouth to speak when her phone started to ring. She pulled her phone out of her purse and saw that Nelly was the one calling. She answered the call and placed the phone on her right ear.“Hi, Nelly.” “Is it true!?” Nelly sounded excited. “Is what true?” Scarlett questioned, a little confused.“That you slept with Ethan?” Scarlett raised her eyes to look at Ethan who was still standing there, looking all sober and
Scarlett opened her eyes the next morning, only to find Adrian still lying in bed next to her. She was shocked to see him there; she didn't expect it at all. She had thought that he would have disappeared by the time she woke up and would regret everything that they did, but that didn't seem to be the case.“Good morning.” He greeted her and placed a kiss on her forehead. This shocked her even more. He stared tenderly at her and caressed her cheek; she couldn't help but blush.“Good morning.” She returned his greeting and snuggled in closer to him. He chuckled lightly.“Are you going to school today?” He questioned her, but she didn't feel like leaving his side at all.“I don't think I'll be able to concentrate on anything today,” she blushed. “Besides, I have only one class, so I think I'm going to skip school today. The weekend is here already.” “Alright then. Would you like to come to my place then? I hope you won't mind that it's not as fancy as what you're used to.” He offered.
Scarlett turned around swiftly. She didn't want Ethan to know that she had been going through his phone. She moved away from the table and acted natural, although she found that a very difficult thing to do.She couldn't believe what she had just seen, and it was difficult to swallow. She felt embarrassed that her mom would stoop to that same level. Sleeping with Ethan? How could she be so dirty? Scarlett immediately recalled what happened at the house during the holiday. Could it be that Ethan was the one fucking her mother that night that she was looking for him? That did explain why he was sweating so much and even had the nerve to lie about working out. She was so pissed at her mother, at Ethan, and at herself for not figuring it out sooner because it seemed to have been going on for a really long time. Ethan walked up to her and noticed how tense she was looking. He asked if she was okay and she said that nothing was wrong with her.“Scarlett.” He called, sinking into the sofa
Scarlett and Nelly were just coming out from their first class of the semester when Nelly stopped walking and turned to face Scarlett, smiling widely.“Have you heard?” Nelly questioned. Scarlett, who seemed uninterested, was busy on her phone. She looked up with a perplexed expression and shrugged.“Heard what?” “The football team is hosting a welcome back party at their house tonight.” Nelly happily announced. Scarlett shook her head slowly, “I didn't know about it. You know you're always up to date about everything happening in school.” “That's right.” Nelly giggled. “So are you going?” “Nah, I don't think so. I have a lot of work to do tonight.” Scarlett replied, and Nelly looked sad.Vivian's secretary, Rachel, had sent the month's summary to Scarlett. It contained everything that had happened in the last month, including the finances and different deals. So she wanted to take her time to go through everything and take note of what had been going on, especially due to her mot
It had been three weeks already, and Scarlett's semester break was over. She was going to go back to the hassle and tussle of school, which she wasn't looking forward to. She was all set to leave for school and was packing her things into her car that morning.One of the maids, Sheila, was helping her take her belongings to the car and also get some necessary things that she had missed packing.“Oh, that's right, Sheila?”“Yes ma'am?” “Can you go to my room and get the bag beside my bed? The one I brought from the mall.” “Sure ma'am,” Sheila answered and went to get what Scarlett demanded. Scarlett, on the other hand, went back into the house to get some snacks for the road. Sheila came back outside but didn't find Scarlett. She loaded the bag in the trunk while waiting. She heard the gate opening and turned to see their porter opening the gate for a car for someone. They were not expecting any visitors, so she called for Scarlett.Before Scarlett came out, Adrian stepped down from
Scarlett and Lily were in Scarlett's living room, their eyes fixed on the big screen television. They chuckled at a statement one of the characters of the show made, and then Scarlett turned to take a long look at Lily.“What? Why are you staring at me like that?” Lily turned to face her.“So you notice the look I'm giving you right now, but you played blind to Josh's breathtaking stare all afternoon? He's literally in love with you.” Scarlett snapped. She remembered exactly how Josh had his love-filled eyes fixed on Lily, like she was the only one in the room. “You know, you only get lucky once with this kind of thing. You might never find another who looks at you the way he does.” “Oh please, Scarlett. I've told you this before, I don't want anything of that sort, at least not for now.” Lily rolled her eyes.“What if you don't find it when you're finally ready?” “Why are you suddenly sounding like some love expert? I don't want any commitment for now, okay? I really don't want to
Adrian came out of the bathroom and met Scarlett, still sitting at her table with Lily and Josh. Scarlett looked sad, probably because Ethan had to leave and Adrian knew exactly where he was. He threw his face away and told his date that it was time for them to leave. He led the way out after settling the bills, and his date briskly walked behind him.“Why did we have to leave so early? We didn't even get to eat anything.” The innocent-looking lady asked as they drove out of the restaurant and onto the busy road.“I'm sorry, but I have something urgent to attend to.” Adrian sounded gentle. The lady did nothing bad to him, but he wasn't interested in her or a relationship with her.“Oh, so where are we going?” She inquired.“I'm dropping you off at your house. Please, I don't think I'm ready for any commitment right now, and I wouldn't want to waste your time and give you the impression that I'm into you. I hope you can respect my decision, and please don't be upset.” Adrian said it in
