"Another cup, please." Jade requested, adjusting her reading glasses without looking at her assistant. Her white laptop lay open in front of her, and she busied herself transferring some documents into it."This is your fifth you know." Annabelle finally spoke up, earning herself an 'I know' look. Getting the message, she left to do as she had been asked.Annabelle prepared the coffee as Jade liked it; a little sugar, no cream, and placed it with the tray on her desk, watching her gulp it down in one succession and rub her eyes."You're sure you are okay, Jade?" "Of course" Jade forced a smile, and continued. "Get me that file the PR sent for approval." Saying nothing, Annabelle stared at her for full minutes, and till Jade arched her brows, looking at her with those calculating eyes, she stood biting her lower lips and wondering how to relate the news to her."Spill it,

When Jade returned to the mansion after a tired but productive day, she rang the doorbell twice before Somto opened it, wiping her wet hands on her apron and making to take her bag.She had once installed a device that would simply enable her punch in the security code and the door would open. It was better than having to inconvenience Somto, but well, Esmeralda had simply happened and she had been forced to uninstall it."No it's okay. Is Chloe here yet?" Jade asked, shifting the bag away from her reach. Somto nodded, and so Jade didn't go straight to Esmeralda's room as she did whenever she came back, but instead made for the dinning, smiling when she saw her sister very focused on a plate of  food. As soon as Chloe looked up and saw her sister, she stilled visibly, dropping her fork and standing awkwardly. Jade moved fast and engaged her in an embrace so tight that Chloe almost felt crushed. &nbs

Ricky scrolled through his feeds again for the umpeetenth time that morning, confusion marring his forehead. His eyes were fixated to his laptop, his shoulders slumped in confusion.His P.R. manager had returned the day before stuttering that they hadn't been able to take down all the posts since people had only increased their mode of spreading them. It had been a ranking harshtag on Instagram, and a trending topic on Facebook. He had kept receiving hate messages and had had to go offline for a while. But now, he had woken up to every article on the issue cleared, the trending topics being the model, Loiusa Charlie who was advertising yet another lingerie. He had immediately contacted the manager had already planned the fire, only to receive a negative response. He hadn't pulled it down.Which brought him to the question of who could possibly wield such power. Now, the P.R. stood

If Jade hadn't clearly heard the words come from the chairman of the Mears corporation board, she would have concluded that Ricky had had a hand in it. Wait, what if he had? No, virtually no one outside the holders of top positions in her corporation knew that she modelled the Raymonds corporation products herself under a pseudonym, which left her to look at them with an expression that said she already knew they were guilty.  To her surprise and yet relief that they hadn't betrayed her nor violated the contract of non disclosure agreement they had signed, they shook their heads twice; they weren't guilty.She glanced at Ricky, his eyes were on her, but they were unreadable, expressionless, betraying nothing but coldness, indifference. He seemed to have hated her.She felt hurt, but tapped her fingers on the table, speaking up.  "Now why would you think of such a thing sir?" Jade asked, ignoring the shar

Ricky Mears woke up with a start. It wasn't because he hadn't woken up with a warm body beside him and legs wrapped around his; he had stopped calling Lilian after three days, not just because he felt himself remain limp and unable to quench his desire in the last three nights they were together, but also because he could not look at her perfectly well shaped body without comparing her with the other tanned skin woman who had awoken more desires in him than he couldn't release himself from.And damn had he tried to relieve himself of the throbbing ache in his groin and failed to attain that height of release except when he imagined Jade's eyes filled with ecstasy, her back arched as she reached her climax.He had fucking become insane, a complete goner for Jade who consumed his thoughts and made his heart beat in excitement whenever he did as much as remember her.At the end, he'd had to stop having sex with Lilian, and ended it wit
