Oliver raised a brow. He didn't like where Anne was going. "We have to go all out, in making sure all the cameras don't leave your side,” Anne seemed to be excited about the whole thing. Oliver let out a soft laugh, he had always known Anne to be a clown.Anne stopped, wondering what was hilarious.She ignored him and continued, “Well, I have your outfits ready. I have informed Zara that I’ll be coming to pick her up at noon. I’ll have her back before 4:00 pm so you can leave together,” She swiped the screen of her iPad, showing Oliver what she had prepared.Shit! Oliver paused abruptly like he just had an epiphany. “I haven’t told Zara about the awards dinner, and it is tomorrow! Anne, could you please help me out again,” Oliver pleaded.Anne rolled her eyes and responded, “I guess I should add ‘mess cleaner’ to my job description Fine, I’ll call her,” She gave in.She started putting folders inside her bag. She was getting ready to represent Oliver in the meeting.“I guess I shou

Oliver frowned and swallowed hard. His face twitched with unregistered emotions as he watched the person approach him. She was elegant and tall, her dress was fitted. Her slit stopped at her thigh exposing her skin, the body like that of a model. Vanessa Willow.Zara had also recognized her from the pictures Anne had shown her. She was the one who had planned the fall for Oliver. Zara gasped, she looked too beautiful to be evil.It was just like one of those sayings. "You never know the heart of people," Zara thought. "My darling Oliver!" The woman spoke, with a wide grin that could be mistaken for a smile.She stopped briefly, as she turned her face to Zara.It was as if she was scanning her with her eyes, they screamed jealousy. She widened her eyes a bit as if surprised by her. She probably did not expect Zara to be more beautiful than the pictures and videos portrayed.Vanessa's hiss was almost audible. She had nearly started comparing herself with the peasant in front of her.

"Mr. Raker, you can now be discharged. Don't forget to take your medications properly," the doctor said to Kelvin as he sat up. A checkup was being carried out with the help of several other nurses. "Now remember, you can't do any tedious work. That is it, see you in two weeks," Doctor Kendrick warned, as he held Kelvin's shoulder firmly."Thank you so much Doctor," Kelvin replied as he made his way out of the room. To his surprise, Jeff was waiting outside for him."You look much better, Mr. Raker," Jeff complimented with a smile on his face. His green eyes were sparkling at Kelvin. He proceeded to collect Kelvin's bag from the nurse assisting him."Oh no, you don't have to—" It was too late, he had already snatched it from him and was walking straight outside.Kelvin felt slightly better that someone was at his discharge, but a disgruntled frown immediately formed on his face as he realized the absence of Zara."Thank you, Jeff," Kelvin said as he caught up with Jeff. Jeff nodded

Oliver stared at the message that was displayed on his phone's screen and his facial expression changed. Anne saw the look on his face and out of concern she asked, "What is going on, what did you see?"Oliver went ahead to show Anne the message that got him stunned. "Oh no, not now," Anne lamented. "How is the security at your place?" Anne continued, trying to figure out the whole scenario."Very tight. Enough CCTV, one that you can't access without permission," Oliver replied wondering what Anne was thinking."Well, we cannot say anything about Kelvin, it was part of the contract. Since the security is tight, we should not be bothered about this. Jeff's driving him right?" Anne asked. "Uh? Yeah, he is," Oliver said. Anne nodded. "With these in check, I do not think that is a problem," Anne said. Oliver realized that this was not. what he had been thinking about. Anne was thinking about Kelvin being seen with Zara, while his mind was somewhere else entirely. Kelvin back in his

Jeff walked to the vehicle and closed the door. He looked up when the electronic buzzer indicated that the gate was opening. He was surprised when he saw Oliver drive in with the Range Rover. "What—?" The word hung in Jeff's throat. The Range Rover parked beside the other vehicle and Oliver came out of the vehicle. He was looking around frantically as if he was looking for something. Jeff tried to rack his head around the reasons why Oliver would be back home very early. It wasn't like him, especially on a weekday. He could not place it. Was it because he had driven Kelvin to the house?Oliver turned to Jeff and saw the confusion and worry on his face and he smiled at him. "Jeff, everything is fine. I think I just need to rest," Oliver assured him. Jeff was still perplexed, he was curious. "If you are not feeling well, I will drop you at the hospital...maybe I should call the doctor for you," Jeff brought out his phone and dialed the doctor's number. Whoa! He was taking it too

Vanessa lay on her bed, and all she had on her mind was how to trap Oliver Russel. That was all she had been doing that morning. But there was a block, she wasn't able to concoct her evil plans very well that morning. Probably because the danger of going bankrupt was looking very real to her. She remembered what she had posted on social media and how it had garnered a lot of likes and hashtags. Her 250k followers would push her again. She decided to go live on social media. In less than two minutes, she had about twenty thousand people watching her video."Hey, people? What is that? Slow morning? Come on, let's get more people seeing this!" Vanessa tried to rouse her fans up. they were soon gifting her on her live feed and she smiled. at least, she had seen some money to party with the following weekend. "As you all know, I wasn't able to host the Viral Awards because something personal came up, and I am sorry for that," Vanessa started. She had gathered a pretty big audience onli
Played By Love 27. Zara's Disappointment
Zara slowly opened her eyes. The shades were still down, but she was having trouble sleeping. She knew it was probably a few hours to dawn. The maids had probably left it down to let her enjoy her sleep. Zara flicked the lights on from her bed with a designated body and rested her palm on her temple as she laid back and focused on the pure white ceiling staring back at her. She could still smell Kelvin's scent on the bed next to her l, she felt a longing for him in her bed again. She should have kissed Kelvin goodbye yesterday, but Oliver's face had stopped her. She grabbed her pillow and screamed into it. Of course, she had the right to kiss Kelvin as many times as she wanted to in front of Oliver! Zara thought as she held the pillow tight to herself. Her brows furrowed as she yawned. Why did she get the feeling that it would hurt Oliver? "No, no, no," Zara shook her head violently as she sat up. She looked sideways to the mirror and she blinked at the mess of her hair that la

Now that he had come during the day, he was very much surprised at how his little Cafe had been transformed. The exterior had more space where people could sit out and enjoy the outdoor view.It was like a cafe uptown opened an outlet downtownIt was as if Oliver had visited his dreams and taken a picture, handed it to a designer. It was exactly as he had imagined. He brought out his phone and texted thanks to Oliver several times. He couldn't thank him enough. "Nice Cafe you have there."Kelvin turned to the direction of the voice and recognized it as someone from the neighborhood. "Oh, thank you very much," Kelvin replied politely. "How is your health now?""It is fine thanks to your prayers," Kelvin smiled."Take care.""Nice business.""Awesome transformation!
