LOGIN“You can’t blame me. Her father is the richest man in this country. You’re just an orphan. You should be grateful I even dated you. I won’t mind having you as my mistress though.” These were the words of my boyfriend after catching him in bed with my best friend. If it were with any other woman, it would have been less painful. But my best friend sleeping with my boyfriend behind my back? How does one heal from that? For the first time in my life; I am going to be very mean, because how could they? Yes, I was an orphan but does that give anyone the right to trample all over me? Well, I’d become the wife of that richest man! And have them address me as “Mom”
View More*ALANA* He quickly shook his head. “I wasn’t…I…just…you said it was your morning routine as well and I only briefly…just briefly wondered why you would miss your routine.”I shrugged. “I overslept this morning. And it’s not a bizarre thing to skip a routine sometimes.” “It’s bizarre. I do not skip my routines.”He replied.I cocked an eyebrow. “Seriously? You mean to say you’ve never missed a single morning of your running sessions.” “No.” I laughed. “You’re lying. What if you oversleep?” “I do not oversleep.” “What if you fall sick?” “I do not fall sick.”I scoffed. “What are you? Iron man?”He laughed. “I guess so.”Oh God.He laughed?I wanted to hear it again. “Why are you staring at me like that?” He suddenly asked.I had been staring at him like I was enchanted.I had really been enchanted for a moment.By his laughter.Oh God, I can’t think properly right now. I have to be away from him so I can think properly agai
*MANUEL* I could hear her voice in my head, screaming my name and the way she yelled my name this morning made me want to shut her up with my dick.And I also wanted her to scream my name, somewhere else. *We’re so far from your house. I have no idea how many miles we’ve ran. Feels like 100.*100 miles?Does she even know how long 100 miles is by foot?She was crazy. Well, I did purposely run longer than usual this morning to exhaust the heck out of her.I was pretty sure she’d not come running with me tomorrow. *You’re the biggest jerk I know and I hope you choke on that coffee!*That sharp mouth of hers made me momentarily angry but then I had been amused.People do not talk to me like that.And that woman seems to like talking back at me a lot.She doesn’t listen. “You’re smiling, sir.” Cole, my PA who was driving me to work suddenly let out sounding shocked.I froze.I wasn’t smiling.He had to have his eyes checked.Why would I smile w
*ALANA* It was Day 2 of trying to get Manuel to be a bit friendly to me so he would grant me a favor. I was all set again to go on a run with Mr arrogant. He was going to cuss the hell out of me as usual but I couldn’t give up. I was on a blue sport bra, and a pair of yoga pants, I jogged out of the house and found him setting off already. I quickly caught up with him. “Good morning, Manuel.” He stopped running and sighed. “Why are you dressed like this? Are you trying to seduce me? Didn’t I warn you not to try anything with me?”I frowned.What was seductive about what I was wearing? “This is literally a comfortable fit for exercising, do you want me to wear a garment or something?” “Go wear a shirt. Do you have any idea how distracting your top is?!” “So it’s distracting for you?”I looked down, my boobs were properly covered, just that the tank top held them tightly together and so the top part of my cleavage was exposed.But I d
*ALANA* Screw them!I didn’t need to prove anything to anyone.They can continue thinking I was having a horrible life, I didn’t care. But the more I thought about it, the more I wanted to put them in their places. I imagined showing up with my husband all over me, treating me like a queen, that would definitely make this lose their minds for days, for weeks even.Especially that Linda. She would be in deep regrets, torturing herself for refusing to marry him. While Patricia and her husband would wish they had treated me well. They would try to curry favor from me but I’d refuse because I wasn’t nice anymore.Good Lord.That felt so pleasing to imagine. The problem was, I couldn’t put them in their places.My husband hated me and he didn’t see me as a queen at all. But we could pretend.That instantly lit a switch in me. What if I asked him to come with me to the Collins house and pretend to be my loving husband?I laughed at how stupid that sounded.How was I
*ALANA* Before those words could fully register in my head, he brought out a black card and stretched it to me. “You’re not permitted to work anymore. But you could busy yourself by going shopping, buy bags, jewelries, whatever makes women happy and come back home. Lastly, as the owner o
“Did you two meet up?” Manuel suddenly asked. “We work at the same TV station.” “Why did you do that to your friend?” Julia frowned at that question and her dad’s surprisingly calm voice.Wasn’t he supposed to be furious as hell? At Alana? “What?” “Why were y
*MANUEL* Do weddings take this long to be over?It was exhausting.It felt like the day was dragging on. I was currently at my study, going through some documents. The wedding ceremony wasn’t over yet but my barely existent social battery had died down and I’ve had enough. The bride coul
*MANUEL* For a moment, it felt as if I was lost. And when I realized I was about to get disarmed by just a fucking kiss, I quickly pulled away from her. She panted, staring up at me with those beautiful ocean eyes. I panicked. Panicked and scurried away, because it felt
