Hi loves! It's been a pleasure coming this far with you. Join me as we continue on our intricate journey...
Silva waited patiently for Ralph as he ate the fruit combo. She rubbed her hand on his back, assuring him that she had him to lean on. He didn't rush the fruit combo, and she knew that he was trying to buy himself some time.Ralph finished the plate of fruits after what seemed like an eternity. He faced Silva, who offered him a reassuring smile. He drew her closer to himself and kissed her. It was a slow, deep kiss.Silva was stunned by his action, which wasn't what she was waiting for. "What's that for?" She asked, gasping for breath."It makes me feel better than this, you tasted like heaven," Ralph replied, playing with the lock of her hair."Okay, so can we talk about it now? You can take all the time you want, I'm here to listen and perform the Silva magic to make it all go away," Silva said, staring at his face with concern.Ralph laughed, his voice deep and shaky from the kiss. "You really know how to make me talk, don't you?" He rubbed his thumb over her lower lip."What do yo
Ralph's Office, The Royal AssociationRalph had a lot going on at the moment; some of his investors were saying that they wanted to pull out their investment for no reason, and he found it quite disturbing.How can someone just wake up one day and decide to pull out of a business that's been doing well over the years? Even his trusted associates didn't give him any plausible reason, knowing fully well that this is not the time of the year to make such a stupid decision. He offered to buy their shares, but they blatantly refused, saying that's what they wanted, and it looked like a conspiracy to him. Most of these shareholders were people working with the company since the day of his father.The same people who had begged him profusely to save the company at a young age, when he really had no business cleaning up his father's mess. Now that the company was doing so well, they just wanna quit out of the blue, that's not happening, not even in their wildest dream.If it means going to c
Rebecca had a quick shower after her morning exercise, she walked into the kitchen to grab a bottle of water before busying herself with the affairs on her social media.She opened the fridge, it was stocked, her eyes sparkled with enthusiasm as she took two apples, dropped her phone on the table, and took out a tray to peel the apples after washing it. Wondering where the maid went, she's not supposed to be doing this herself.She shrugged, humming along to the song playing from her playlist, 'In Your Arms Forever'. She was in a good mood today, and exercising helped put her in a good mood, especially when she splashed water on her face. The feeling is a thrilling one.Coming back to Laurent was just a better choice because her mom won't stop rambling on about her choice, her view of life, and in all sincerity, she feels like the woman was just doing too much. She's an adult who knows what she wants for herself and she ain't gonna let nobody stop her, not even her mama.Phew....phew,
Chapter 108"Ma'am, you really did that guy dirty last night and I'm not sure I would survive it if it were me, come on, you just trash all of that effort he put into it," Celia said the moment Silva stepped into the kitchen in her sports bra and leggings."I was angry girl, it's not like I wanted to. To be honest, I was surprised that I would have jumped into his arms but I needed to send my message across and he did understand that, plus I made it up to him already," Silva replied dropping her iPad on the table so she could get water from the fridge.Celia paused mid-chop, eyeing her skeptically. “If you ask me? You were acting like a child. Only a man who truly loves you like Ralph could suck up to your ass and still stick around.” “You know what?” Silva said, narrowing her eyes playfully. “I’m starting to question this special relationship and little alliance between you and my husband. You defend him like he’s paying you a bonus every time I mess up. Attorney Celia," Silva said
"You possibly can't be mad at me for doing what I think is best for us, right? That's insane!" Rebecca said, pulling down her leather skirt that was bent on riding up her thigh above her knee."Is that the only excuse you have, because that's not valid. It's your best friend we are talking about here, for Pete's sake! The same person whom you tried to harm because of a man!" Mrs Wilson lamented, looking baffled by her daughter's unrepentant attitude."Need I remind you how beautiful and lively life was before she hopped into the picture with her sly games?" Rebecca replied to her mom with so much fierceness."Need I also remind you that she worked for Ralph before this whole shenanigans of a thing, and for goodness' sake, Ralph isn't the only man in the world," Mrs. Wilson said, trying hard to slap some sense into her daughter because she really needed it."Geez, Mom, of course, he's the only man in the world for me, and Silva knows this, but she snatched him from me as an escape from
Silva woke in the wee hours of the night, feeling parched. She got out of bed and went to the center table to get herself a glass of water. That made her feel pretty good, and she was all set to go back to sleep, but now sleep seemed to have deserted her. Now lying there, wide awake, she found herself drawn to the man beside her and, half absentmindedly, stroking his thick black hair with her slender fingers. She had felt so happy last night, but had to put up a show for no reason."Why are you staring at me like that?" Ralph asked as he lazily opened his eyes. Her touch was what woke him up. And while his body should’ve been sluggish at this hour, every fiber was suddenly awake, including parts of him that had no business waking up, considering how she’d treated him earlier. They still longed for her touch. "Seriously? You guys, too? Traitors," he mentally grumbled at his disloyal instincts. Ralph closed his eyes again, trying to block out the confusing mix of emotions she stirred
