Stanley groaned and buried his face deeper into the pillow at the feel of a very big headache. He rarely drinks or gets drunk but whenever he does, he gets the worst hangover ever. Reluctantly, he stood up from his bed and made his way to his cabinet for some hangover painkillers. He reached for a glass of water on his nightstand and gulped down the pills. He sat back on his bed to relax and suddenly, memories of yesterday night came rushing back to him. Stan groaned and buried his face in his hands. Then he reached for his phone on the nightstand and dialled Lauren. He honestly had no idea what he was going to say to her. He just wanted to hear her voice, make sure she's okay and then maybe apologize to her for going too far yesterday. He waited patiently for Lauren to pick up his call but she didn't which was very unusual of her. She was always at his beck and call, picking up in the first four rings.

Stanley was on the phone, discussing business with one of his partners when Lauren walked into his office with some documents and a notepad diary. He smiled at her and ushered her to take a seat by pointing towards the double couch on the far end of his office. Stan talked to his partner for a few more minutes before he ended the call. With a smile on his face, he rose to his feet and made his way towards Lauren. He placed a kiss on her right cheek before taking a seat beside her. His gesture made her blush and she avoided looking into his eyes. Stan chuckled, 'She's so cute'He leaned closer to her and said. "There's nothing to be shy about my love. I want you to start getting used to it because I'll be showering you with so much love.""But we need to be careful." She whispered. Stanley nodded, understanding what she meant.

"So what were you and Anita talking about before I walked in on you two in the kitchen, " Stanley asked interested as he walked Lauren to her apartment. She stopped in her tracks and he did the same. She turned to look at him and folded her arms. "Turns out I wasn't officially invited to the dinner. You lured me into coming with you."Stanley scratched the back of his head shyly. "I'm sorry. I wanted you to come with me so I had to use Anita's name to avoid you refusing."Lauren smiled, "Your sister already apologized on your behalf."Stanley's lips curved into a small smile. "I'll remember to thank her later."Lauren nodded and they continued walking towards her apartment with their hands intertwined. "We also talked about You, me and Rita." She mumbled after a while. "But mostly about me and you." She added. "Anita plays the

Since she had no work-related issues to attend to until noon, Lauren decided to pamper herself by sleeping to her satisfaction. She woke up at a few minutes after nine and decided to do some cleaning, have breakfast and then get ready for work because Stanley will be coming to pick her up for their meeting at noon. Lauren had hardly started cleaning her apartment when she heard the sound of the doorbell. It took her by surprise because she wasn't expecting anyone at this time. She abandoned what she was doing and went to answer the door. Her heartbeat increased when she came face to face with the person that was at the door. "Rita!"Before she could ask what Rita was doing at her place. Rita pushed Lauren aside and made her way into her apartment. Lauren heaved a sigh and shut the door. She approached Rita w

Lauren was on her feet in her office, operating the portable scanning machine when she felt someone wrap a pair of arms around her waist possessively. She smiled, knowing who it was. Stanley chuckled and kissed her cheek from behind. She released herself from him, turned around, tiptoed and gave him a kiss on his lips. "Going somewhere?" She asked with an eyebrow raised. "Yes, my parents requested to see me so I have to go to the mansion.""Is everything okay?" She asked concerned. "Rita is being reluctant about signing the divorce papers and so she has notified my parents about the whole thing.""Heyyy, there's nothing to worry about" Stanley assured as soon as he noticed the sad expression on Lauren's face. "I'll go and see my parents and hear what they have to say to me. I'm sure Rita said something to them tha
