"Whatever," I said to her not even interested in what she had to say but as I stepped out of her presence, feeling a mixture of panic and dread. The last few weeks had been a nightmare, as I had become the target of constant media scrutiny and rumors. The press had been hounding me for days, ever since those photos surfaced of me out with two different men on completely two different occasions. Despite my protests that I had simply been hanging out with a colleague, and ex-boyfriend the headlines had been brutal, painting me as a promiscuous, two-timing cheater, while the debate whether I'm lying or saying whatever brewed hot, this celebrity life is really something. Even when I didn't want to head ears to Ambers's taunts, I still could see her laughing and pointing fingers at me while thinking she was being slick with it, something was different also. Everywhere I went, people seemed to be looking at me strangely, with expressions ranging from pity to contempt. I couldn't shake the
"We can't be seen together it will only spoil your reputation more but I'm still here to pick you up," Marcus said with a smile, it warmed my heart because it seems that the words I told him pierced his heart and kept him up."Why don't you want to ask for help, With just one word from Mom the media won't mention your name ever," He said with desperate eyes, there must be a reason why Demetria doesn't want help from her parents or in a very bad relationship with them, and I don't know what that is so staying away sounds better to me, I believe a mother can tell the difference in their child, I already feel Marcus is onto me now think more her mother."I heard from your assistant that due to the accident, you forgot some things, is that what you call selective dementia?" He said while I only opened my mouth and dropped them, what I'm I supposed to say to that "It's okay if you don't want to talk about it, but just ask me anything you want to know, I am here to help you, you are no lon
...I woke up to the delightful aroma of freshly cooked food wafting through the air. My senses were immediately aroused, and my stomach growled with hunger. I rubbed my eyes, yawned, and stretched my arms above my head, feeling the stiffness in my muscles slowly dissipate."Oohhh" I yarned The smell was coming from the kitchen, and I could hear the sound of pots and pans clattering as someone was preparing breakfast. This is a first, I can't even give a memory picture of what the kitchen looks like because I rarely use it, I swung my legs out of bed and slipped into my slippers, still feeling a bit groggy from a night of deep sleep.I ironically had the sleep in a while even with the bucket full of problems that I have lying at my back.As I made my way to the kitchen, the smell grew stronger and more tantalizing. I couldn't wait to see what was cooking. When I arrived, I found Emilia in her pajamas, busily stirring something in a pan, as this point she should move in, I can count w
"I can't take you on a proper date for your image for now," he said once we arrived inside.I have no idea exactly what he meant by that but this is more than enough for me, besides this isn't even a real relationship, I had no idea we will be going on dates, to begin with"So this is your personal space, I wonder how many women you've brought here," I said before I realize it I was embarrassed, speaking out my thoughts like that "It's crazy you think of me like that, I never invite people to my home, unless they are family," he said "It's not like it's a bad thing to invite a girl home," I said while he chuckled "You are not wrong, that's why I chose to start with you" I don't know why but it sounds unbelievable coming from him "So why are we here?" I started looking around his living room, which was by the way very luxurious and exquisite just like his physic but you can tell it was a house of a bachelor, although the outside gives off a cozy and homely feel the inside is very m
"What do you plan on doing to the person after you do you want my help?" he asked me after remaining quiet for a while, I mean I wanted to say yes, I don't even know where to start but at the same time dumping my whole responsibilities on a man is not the ideal life I wanted for myself "I want to assume you already started something about it?" he said "Not really," I said awkwardly, the look on his face showed just how disappointed he was "But at least I got to know something though, I just have to take them slowly," I said while he hissed "There is no CCTV footage of that day, I guess he was faster to get it sorted out," he said my mind immediately went to what he was talking about, how come I never thought of that honestly "And as well the CCTV of your last set was also cleaned out as well, so far two calculated moves on you coupled with the numerous ones they are doing with the media, I could get them both fired and locked up if you want," he said while I just stared at him "
..."A private investigator" Emilia suggested "You know I thought of that but isn't it expensive," I said "How about we take a trip to the bank to see your account manager, money should be far from your problem," She said, although she always reminds me all time still I can't get used to it, I can't just bring myself to spend her money like that."You know let's do that" I finally said as we came down from the van "Stick around," Emilia said to the abled young men who have replaced the driver, the two of them sitting in the front.The set of the shooting had changed to another location, and as we arrived Amber was shooting her scene, must be so busy for her."Hello damsel," Antonio said with a cheerful smile "Oh, I almost forgot what you look like" I joked, it's been a while since I last saw him "I know right? You know I have a reality show that I am filming, which by the way airs weekly make sure to check it out" he said while I nodded."The red hair," he said stepping back to t
The smirk on his face only confused me more."What do you think?" he asked "Raffaele" I was only able to call him while he raised his brow "You are too close," I said watching him move away from me "Like I said be careful," he said before storming away I had to sit down first to be able to think, what did he mean by fake or not what's..."You are here" "Fuck you startled me" "Sorry about that," Zephyr said looking around "We're you here alone?" he asked "Yes," I lied looking around as well, "Did he tell you off?" he asked took me a while to realize what he meant "Huh?" I said getting up and approaching him "I mean did he tell you off too," he asked "A little," I said standing exactly close to him and looking up at him "wh...what what?" he stuttered from nowhere "I thought you came to fetch me lets go," I said while he nodded and moved from the way "I have like two to three more scenes to shoot before I go, I doubt I will even get to go home" I began.I stood in front of
...I was so sure in my head that the second date wasn't happening any time soon because he is still yet to send a message well apart from that incident while on set, he suddenly left me alone, I do not understand whether he has courted lots of women in the past or hasn't court one at all, it has to be either of this because no way in hell do you stop communicating with your girlfriend fake or not.The urge to call him sometimes but still I have no idea what my thoughts are regarding this man, this moment he makes my heart all giggly and racing in a good way, the next moment he acts like he doesn't even recognize me like there is a switch in his head going on and off.And the last thing I want is to make myself seem obsessed by calling him, no which I won't do, he asked me to be his fake girlfriend, he asked for this not the other way around, or maybe I am just overreacting, come to think of it, it's only been four days since our last date, I haven't been in numerous relationships but
