Megan strides into the restaurant she was to meet Elizabeth with an air of effortless grace. Her sleek, tailored attire drapes luxuriously over her slender frame, each piece meticulously chosen to exude sophistication. The soft click of her designer heels against the polished floor resonates with confidence as she moves with purpose. With an impeccable poise, she made heads turn discreetly wanting to see who she was.“Who is she? She looks so beautiful”. She could hear the hush voices of people in the background as she entered halfway. Megan looked around before she finally sighted Elizabeth upstairs at a secluded corner, she frowned as she walked upstairs, wondering why Elizabeth would decide to sit up there when the down space was vacant.Elizabeth was dressed in a white floral gown that accentuated her petite body. Her jaws dropped, and her eyes dripped with utter jealousy and envy. Megan was just always lucky, but this time she would make sure she wasn't. She thought silently wi
“That's a blatant lie, Megan” Elizabeth yelled angrily as she hit the table with her fist, fuming in rage.“Why are you getting so defensive, Elizabeth, Why would I lie?” Megan retorted, smiling at Beth as she played with her nails.She was enjoying every moment of Elizabeth's anger, and it delighted her.“Just because you couldn't get pregnant for him, doesn't mean that I can't” Elizabeth fired back.Megan burst into laughter as she covered her mouth mischievously, “Excuse me please, I have been married to Greg for five years Elizabeth, If Greg was capable, I would have been pregnant a long time ago” Megan uttered, the sly smile never leaving her lips and it infuriated Elizabeth.Elizabeth's heart raced, she knew Megan was saying the truth, but she wasn't ready to give in just yet. It was her plan to come up with a false pregnancy so Greg and Megan could separate, hoping that when she gets intimate with Greg, she could truly be pregnant.“What's the problem, Beth? What are you thinki
“Elizabeth” Megan finally screamed, bursting out of her frozen state. She wanted to confirm if Elizabeth was responsive, but there was none. All of a sudden, the waiter to whom she had spilled the juice appeared out of nowhere and started screaming, drawing the attention of the already dishevelled people.“What have you done, madame? Why did You push her off the railings?” The waiter screamed on top of his voice in a strange accent.“I did no such thing”Megan defended in a stern voice. “That's a lie Madame, I saw you, you pushed her. Without even waiting for Megan's response, he turned towards the small crowd that had suddenly formed.“Everyone, this wicked soul here is responsible for that woman's fall” The waiter countered, pointing his fingers at Elizabeth who was lying on the floor.People gathered around Elizabeth on the floor trying to examine if she was dead or alive, some started pointing fingers at Megan, who was still trying to process the whole thing.“She is breathing” On
As the door opened, a man walked in with a stern look on his face, his cologne filling up the atmosphere. His assistant followed behind holding a bag as he tried to meet up to the strides of the man. Mrs. Wilson's eyes twitched as she couldn't believe her eyes. Isn't this Alexander gold, the most powerful billionaire in the whole of New York. She had often heard nasty and dangerous rumors about him that made her want to pee on herself. “Greg” She whispered, still keeping her gaze fixed on Alex. Greg turned to face his mother, who turned her head towards Alex. As if on impulse, Greg immediately releases Megan, Making her fall mercilessly on the floor. Poor Megan struggled to catch her breath as she looked at Alex, who had just walked in. What was he doing here, she thought within her. “Good afternoon sir, what brings you?” Mrs. Wilson asked, but not without stuttering. But Alex paid no attention to her. He hated devious people like her. He marched robotically towards Megan while h
Megan slept last night, with difficulty, as her mind kept wandering around Alex, and she wondered why. She had received an email concerning her flight tickets to France by 11 am, and it was ten o'clock in the morning already. She contemplated between packing last night or this morning, and there she was doing the latter. Megan walked downstairs to have breakfast with her family, her dad had finally returned. She could not help but wonder if he treats his other family the same way he treats them. “Good morning Dad” Megan greeted as she pulled out a chair, taking a seat, she had used a muffler to wrap her neck, so the bruises wouldn't be seen. If Enzo or Loyd gets to see it, it is going to stir up trouble, war, and wrath. Megan didn't want this, as she had plans of her own to get back at Greg. “Good morning, I got a call that your flight arrangements to France have been made. Is that so? “ Mr. Leonard asked directly. “Yes, I was going to tell you, I leave by ten thirty” Megan repli
“Wow”, Megan muttered as she felt her heartbeat outrageously. Her eyes trailed from his muscular shoulders down to his abs, then to his waist, where his towel hung dangerously low. “Do you like what you see?” Alex teased with a stiff grin. “What…are you saying?” Megan stuttered, not believing Alex caught her ogling at his body shamelessly. “Manners, Megan, you knock before entering someone's room, Don't you know that?” Alex said while he turned around to grab another towel for his beautiful short hair. “I….do, the.. door was opened and I”. “And you walked in, right?” Alex helped her complete the words. “Yes, the door was opened,” Megan repeated as she closed her eyes, trying to regain composure. “Why are you here?” don't tell me it's because you want to see me get naked?” Alex furrowed his eyebrows, walking dangerously close to Megan, who took a step back. “What are you saying, Alex, of course I don't want to see you get naked,” Megan defended as a blush crept its way to her fa
The old man's eyes widened in horror as he heard Alex's voice. He definitely didn't want to die. “Mr. Go…ld, what are you doing here?” He stuttered. Alex walked with Grace towards Megan. “Let go” Alex ordered with an expressionless face and immediately, the men holding Megan released her. They were so scared that they could hear the sound of their own heart beat. “Alex…” Megan uttered, she felt a sense of relief washed over her at the sight of him. “Did he touch you?”. Alex asked, and Megan could only shake her head subtly in dejection. She didn't understand the gravity of what she had just done, all she thought was that Alex would speak sense to the old man, but it went otherwise. “What brings you, Mr. Alexander?” The man asked with a trembling voice, it was evident that he was terrified. “Why! Are there restrictions on certain places I can't be?” Alex questioned in a tone filled with sarcasm. “That aside, he continued, what is going on here? “ He asked as his eyes shone with
“Take him away” Alex ordered in a chill tone. The guards dragged Mr. Hades away, who was wailing from the pain of the bullet.“Clean up this place” Alex walked upstairs, as he headed into the bathroom, staring at his reflection in the mirror, his shirt was stained with Hades blood.He removed the shirt as he tossed it in the bin, the anger was yet to dissipate from his eyes, the last time he had gone berserk for a woman was for Brittany.Memories of that night flooded his head, they had gone to a club together, and Brittany was looking so sexy and enticing, they were dancing on the dance floor, she was absolutely breathtaking.Alex chuckled at the irony of his life, a call came in, and he had to leave Brittany for a minute and when he got back, some sleazy old hag was touching her. The man never lived to see another day. Alex was so obsessed with Brittany, he would kill anyone who tried to touch her or even flirt with her.For minutes, the tap has been running while Alex washed his h
