STONE HEARTED C.E.O 238 Interference
When I reached the venue I was immediately ushered into the groom's room. I went to see Dane working on the laptop. My daughter screamed and went to hug him. He took her and lifted above his shoulders. Who knew my serious daughter was a fun loving girl ?"I miss you daddy", she said."I miss you too bug", he said."Don't get married", she said bossily."Why?", he asked curiously."Because mommy cries", she said shocking me.He looked at me with a hint of smile. I was dumb struck."I wasn't", I said to him.She climbed down from her father and took her place next to me. I gave her a warning look."Don't lie", she said to me."I'm not lying", I said to her."You said that daddy", she was about to say everything but I put my hand on her mouth."That is enough", I warned her."There is still time confess your love or it will be too late", he said with a smirk."No. Our life is not a rom Com Dane. Everything is not black and white", I said to him."Fine your wish", he said.I took my daugh
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 239 The end
Charlie hadn't said anything to Dane. If only she waited for him to talk. Charlie pretended to say the truth so that Heidi comes clean before Dane. She had done it but I knew she will pay the cost for it. Dane now knows everything. The Wedding won't happen now. I felt a little sorry for my sister after all she had lost Dane again."You didn't say the truth to me. I'm angry at you too", said Dane."I won't blame you. I should have told you about Enzo but I was afraid you won't take it seriously", I confessed."His people had shot me and you think I won't take it seriously? Ziva please be mature", said Dane."I'm sorry Dane", I said."You made us lose our precious three years of life. I missed my daughter's birth and her significant mile stones. It is not something that I can forgive", said Dane."You are right. I was a coward and everyone used that knowledge to influence me", I admitted."You are not a coward Ziva. I wish you were a little more selfish. You sacrificed us for my life. I
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 1 Pushover
I nervously tug at the beautiful dress that I was wearing. It gave me Cinderella vibes. It was the first time I wore anything pretty and put on some real make-up. I never got the point of dressing up for high school when what should we be doing was studying hard. My step-sister Heidi will never agree with me since she would rather lather up her face for hours than study for a few minutes. I was tall for a girl and I sometimes towered over short boys. But Heidi on the other hand was a curvy type. My best friend Charlie once referred to Heidi as Kim Kardashian and me as Zendaya. Though Kim has a big booty it's Zendaya one would call cute. Zendaya is much cuter than me and looked nothing like plain looking me. The only common thing between us was we shared African heritage from my mom's side but my dad was white. I don't remember my mom much I was a small child when she died. My father married Ella a few months later. He said it was to look after me. But it was me who looked after my da
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 2 Breaking the news
I stood in the cramped room with my stepmother who was trying to show some emotions on her Botox face but she couldn't. "Who will break the news to Mr Wellington?", said my dad nervously. I felt bad for him. I knew he liked to have Mr Wellington to be his son-in-law. Damn her for putting us through all this. " I will tell him", I said wanting to ease his distress. "You will tell him in front of everyone? You are a stupid girl. Bring him here we will tell him ourselves. He may even agree to postpone the wedding Heidi said she will return soon", said my stepmother. I sighed she might be drunk or high. There was no way he will agree to marry Heidi again. I walked towards the room where the groom was getting ready. I gently knocked on the door. I heard a faint come in. I saw him working on a laptop he looks ready but this wasn't how one spends his wedding day. Doesn't he ever get nervous if I was him I would be before the mirror giving myself a pep talk. " You want something?", he ra
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 3. Wedding
I walked towards the crowd my knees were practically knocking together. I was never a crowd person. I always dreamt about my wedding. I used to always see myself wearing pretty gowns and walking towards the love of my life with a smile. But that day is today except I'm getting married to the love of my sister's life. It was she who should have been in my place I had no idea what had forced her to take off. But seeing the face of my future husband was giving me some ideas. He is not ugly don't mistake me. He is a very handsome man. He can go to a Vogue photo shoot and land himself a modelling gig if he wanted. But he won't because his worth is much more than vogue. He rarely graces any interviews no one knows about him much. He was adopted and his adoptive family was poor too. Whatever he had become it was by his blood and sweat. His adoptive parents are here by the way but I have no complaints against them. They are the sweetest in-laws that Heidi could ask for. But I once heard that
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 4 Best Man
I knew that I had fallen further into his eyes. He might have hated my sister but it won't be anything compared to how he feels about me. It is not every day the groom gets jilted. It had happened to him once and the second time he was on that verge. It is not something that will be easily forgiven. People are far more curious as to what must have caused the younger sister to run away. If I had run like her too then his reputation would have been in tatters. I wanted to laugh and cry at the same time. I have managed to save my family but landed myself in deep shit. He hadn't looked at me for a long time. He tries to ignore the fact that he has a bride next to him most of the time. "Hey smile", said the photographer to me. He didn't say the same to Dane because he must look dashing even if he scowls. I passed a smile on my face. But it looked as though I was being forced to do it. The photographer didn't care though he clicked away the pictures just as happy as I was sad. I missed my
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 5 Possession
I had a peaceful and quiet life except for some of Heidi's meltdowns. I remember once she denied that I shouldn't get to celebrate my birthday since it is a week before hers. She was afraid that I will steal her thunder. I didn't care. I was never one for crowded parties. I celebrated them quietly with Charlie and Jeff. Jeff thinking about him is slicing my heart into two. He will know the truth soon. I had no explanation to give him. He loved me so much and I dreamt of being his wife. I had never asked for anything but a small family for me and Jeff. "It is time for the wedding feast", said Tom my father-in-law. I walked with them. I noticed that Dane was not there. I wondered where he had gone. He was kind of concerned about appearances and he was missing the biggest one. "Emm where is Dane?", I asked curiously. "You know how he is. He is taking some calls probably from his office. You have to regulate him dear. He does not care about his health at all. He is always working", said
STONE HEARTED C.E.O 6 Goodbye
We kept our fighting to the bare minimum after that. Maybe that was because we were never left alone. His parents and Jake were always with us. We could hardly fight before them. It was a win-win situation for me because without them I would have hit my husband or worse I would have fallen apart. Both of them could cause everyone deep embarrassment. Well not everyone my husband would hardly feel anything. He was ice cold, Stone-hearted there is nothing that could melt him. My sister had dodged a bullet. He didn't care for her not even an iota of what she must have felt for her. So it is good for her that she decided a bad gown must have stopped her from making a permanent bad decision. "Tell your goodbyes", said Dane. I flicked a glance at him. I refused to be intimidated by this cold monster. "I have no one here to say goodbye to", I said. It was the truth. These people are strangers to me. They are all Heidi's friends and relatives. None of them had been kind to me. They all resent
