CHAPTER 3

last update Last Updated: 2021-06-29 17:44:42

I woke up the next morning on a hard surface,this is not my bed,when did my bed become so hard?. I opened my eyes and I remembered where I was. Shit,I need to leave before he wakes up. What's the time?,where's my cloth?,I kept asking my self these question. I saw my dress somewhere close to the door. I slipped the dress on,took my heels and handbag and started tiptoeing so he would not wake up,I managed to get out of the room. Taking the first flight of stairs I saw,i did not care where it led to. The first floor screamed "WEALTH",with really high ceilings,spacious living room and dining room which was decorated.

Damn! Ivan sure have a great taste.

I took time to admire the house because yesterday night I could not.  This man must have a lot of money,I wonder what he does for a living. I haven't seen any other person in this house,doesn't he have helpers?. Or what if he's a kidnapper or he's in the mafia.

"Oh..my..God". Did I just sleep with a criminal. Maybe am just being paranoid. I need to get out of here as soon as possible. I dashed out of the house. I hailed a cab to my apartment. I called my best friends to be sure if they were alright. I called Jesse first and she picked after three rings.

"Hello". "Are you alright?". "Are you at home?". I asked her all these questions at once

Calm your titties Adele. She used the nick name she calls me. "I'm okay" and no am not at home. Infact I won't be coming home today. "I still have things I need to sort  over here". She said giggling 

"So tell me how was your night,how was the sex,did you enjoy it?".she asked 

"I can't discuss that right now,I'll explain everything to you once we see ".

"Okay,fine". Have a nice day and don't forget to call Samantha she must be worried because she hasn't heard from you since yesterday.

"I will",Bye.

I called Samantha and she picked almost immediately. "Where we're you,I was worried because Jesse said you went home with one boy and that's unlike you".

"Yes,I did,I'll tell you all about it when we meet,right now am on my way home,I'll visit mom and dad today and spend sometime with them,I'll be back in the evening since tomorrow is work".

"Sure,let's have breakfast on Monday morning before we go to work,the three of us and don't be late".

"I won't,I promise". Bye 

"Ma'am,we are here". The cabbie said.

"Here's your money".

I walked to my apartment and unlocked the door,I pulled my dress down and went to take a nice hot shower in my tub with scented petals,I took my time in scrubbing my body,I stayed an hour having my shower before I decided to make breakfast.

I walked to the kitchen to make pancakes with chocolate syrup,when it was ready I devoured the food like an animal. After my breakfast,I decided to read a novel before I went to sleep.

       *********************

When I woke up it was past 2o'clock in the afternoon,I prepared to visit my parents. After dressing,I took my things and locked the door. I arrived at my parents house after 3. I knocked on the door and my mum opened the door.

"Oh,my darling,your welcome,how are you?".

"I'm fine mum,how is everyone?".

"They are all fine,your father is inside".

"Let me say hi to him". 

"Good afternoon daddy,how is your health?".

"I am fine my daughter,how is work?,i hope they are not stressing you too much".

"No daddy,work is great and they are not stressing me".

"Where is Michael?,i did not see him when i came here".

"He said something about visiting his friend to do assignments,he might probably come back before you go".

"Adellliaaa....". My mum screamed 

"Yess".

"Come and help me prepare dinner".

"I'm coming mum,I'll be right there".

My mum was preparing lasgna,an italian dish,so i helped her arrange things,she started asking me questions

"How is  work?". 

"Work is just there ,nothing new about it".

"What about Romano?",she was asking me about my ex-boyfriend.

"We broke up".

"Why".

Mum,he was cheating on me for four months,four freaking months and i did not know. I feel so stupid,i saw the signs but i just chose to ignore it.

"It's okay,my daughter,it's his loss. If he let go of such a beautiful,independent,smart woman like you,then he is an idiot"(é un idiòta).

Set the dining the table,dinner is almost ready". I was arranging the plates when my brother came in.

"Hey sis,when did you arrive?".

"I have been here for almost four hours,where did you go?"

"I went to do some assignments with my friend. How is work?".

Work is good. Let me call daddy to come and have dinner,I'll soon be on my way home.

"Daddy,dinner is readyy".

We sat on the table and ate the food as one happy family. When we were through,i helped my mum clean the dishes. We all gisted for a while,i told them i was leaving because i had to wake up early for work tomorrow.

"Bye,mum,dad and Mikey,I'll visit some other time. Dad make sure you go for your tests and take your medicine,mum take care of yourself and daddy,I'll send some money when am paid". I love you guys.

"We love you too". they all said

"Make sure you call me whenever there is a problem".

         ****************

I got to my apartment by 8:15,i went straight to the bathroom and had my shower,i set my alarm,said my prayers and went to sleep.

  • The Tycoon    Bonus Chapter

    JESSE’S POV I had witnessed Adelia’s story and i was happy with the way it ended and I wanted a story like hers too, but I doubt it will ever happen, especially now I was given months to live. Andre and I had been seeing each other and he seemed so serious about me but I kept pushing him away and it pissed the hell out of him and that hurt me a lot.I had wanted him to hang out with other women and so he would feel like I was not into him that much and what was I supposed to do. I was barely going to last for a long time. I found out 2 years ago that I had colon cancer, and I had been broken. I was in so much pain and I didn’t want to tell anyone about it not even Adelia and I knew she’d be so worried about me. My parents were late and I had no siblings, relations I barely knew and so Adelia and Samantha were my only family. When I thought about it I was scared I was going to drop anytime without any of my loved one around me. But I didn’t want to tell either of them. I didn’t wa

  • The Tycoon    EPILOGUE

    These past few months have been nothing short of amazing. Being Ivan's wife and properly accepted by his family and friends, even the public too. We had a lot of interviews to grant and I had to deal with the press almost every time I stepped out for me that was the most tasking of it all. I was most grateful for having him by my side although being with him on this bed and him holding me was one of my best moments. Of late I had been feeling nauseous and tired but this morning it got worse and so I had to stay in bed even after he went out. I didn't tell him so he doesn't get so worried. So after he left for work I called Jesse. "Hey babe""Hey, babe are you good?""Not exactly. I have been feeling nauseous and super tired, I need you to escort me to the doctor""That is fine, I'll be with you shortly""Okay I will be waiting"I laid back in the bed, was too weak to go to the bathroom. My phone rang and I picked up and it was Ivan. I was a bit tensed about what to tell him, I di

  • The Tycoon    CHAPTER 50

    These past few weeks with Ivan had brought me so much peace and I had no doubts in my heart that he loved me so much. He had asked me to move in and I did. He made sure I got everything I needed even without me asking. He was so sweet. He had insisted I come back to work Nat the hotel but I didn't want that. I wanted to be independent and build my empire and I meant every bit of it. Ivan was not happy with my choice but I had made up my mind and there was no going back. It was another morning and I was already dressed for work. I tried as much as possible to avoid any arguments with Ivan concerning my job not matching up to my status as his girlfriend and all. I understood what he meant though but he had to take me as I was. I rushed off to work and as usual, Rio was always and would always be a pain in my ass. Although we had started getting along, he was quite annoying sometimes and I didn't fail to let him know. Rio had asked me out on several occasions but I had turned him do

"Are you going to continue working there?" "Yes and I have explained everything to you""I do not like the idea""You have to deal with it""Can't you change your mind"She came closer and kissed me. "I wish I could change my mind just like that. See you later" And she left. I had tried all I could to convince Adelia to resume work back at the hotel but it was futile. She made up her mind to continue working at the eatery and I hated it so much. So I came up with something, it was time she got her place and become her boss as she wanted. I set up a meeting with some good architects to draw a wonderful plan for a 5star restaurant and made Andre supervise it. I had to do other things that includes teaching Samantha a lesson. She messed up with the wrong person and I was not going to let it slide. Samant

  • The Tycoon    CHAPTER 48

    IVAN'S POVThe get-together was barely over when I and Adelia left the place. I could not wait to take her home. I missed her so much and sure she missed me too. I allowed her to spend time with her family. From the way she was surprised to see them here, I feel like she hasn't gone to see them. The moment we got to the house I started kissing her and she kissed me back in return I grabbed her and carried her up to my room and in no time we were both naked. I turned to face her and held her so close to me while I admired her beautiful face. "I missed kissing your sweet lips"And then I kissed her gently and she responded."I love you Adelia more than anything and I wanted to make sure you knew that." "I love you too Ivan"I then moved my lips over hers and kissed her again, this time it was slow and deep"She responded to my kisses instantly and she pressed herself closer to me. I moaned a little I felt her softness and warmth against me, and my cock hardened almost immediately. S

  • The Tycoon    CHAPTER 47

    IVAN'S POVDespite my apologies, Adelia refused to listen to me but there was no way I was going to give up. I would prove to her how sorry I am and make sure she believes and trusts me again. How was I so blind to the truth?" I had accused her and even said the wrong words to her even when she said she did not do it. I was very foolish. I was so restless. I kept calling her lines but she refuse to pick up her calls. I was pacing around my apartment when Andre came in. "What is the problem man?" "I have messed things up" "How?? What did you do?" "Adelia was not the one who leaked the contract" "What!!!?... who did?" "Her friend did""Wooo!! Don't tell me Jesse did that because I won't believe that" "No not Jesse... her other friend" "Samantha?" "Yes... Samantha and I are going to make sure she pays for it" "So what is Adelia saying now" "She doesn't want to forgive me for not trusting her" "Well she's right.. you gave up on her so quickly and you didn't even think twi
