Charlene had tried to start a conversation with him but whenever she brought up a topic he ignored completely as if she was never talking to him. It wasn't like he derived happiness in doing so but he thought it was the best thing to do. Javier thought if he gave her a space it would be better than being close to her and became a disaster in her marriage.When the time was up Javier went over and submitted his booklet. Charlene saw him heading out of the lecture theatre, she was almost done, she scribbled the last answer, she packed up and walked up to the invigilator who was standing next to the desk. She dropped her answer booklet, the invigilator looked at her and smiled brightly. Charlene shrugged off, she strode to where her backpack was, she carried it and exited the lecture theatre. She looked round in search for him, she was perturbed as needed to talk to him. “Hey, Charlene.” Fiona appeared behind her, Charlene pivoted to look at her. She raised an inquiry brow while keepin

Richard woke to a terrible hangover, he lingered in bed, ignoring his phone as he kept ringing. His eyes were tightly closed, roaming his right hand on the bed he rolled over to the edge. “Holy shit! My head,” He put a hand on his and groaned silently. Slowly he opened his eyes, almost all the lights in the room were off except the spotlight above the bed, he scanned the room without sitting up. “My head hurts.” He groaned. He extended his hand on the bed and took his phone, he gasped surprisingly when he saw it was five o'clock AM. He sat up abruptly and held his head. He ruffled his hair and glanced around the room. He furrowed his brows puzzlingly when he noticed she wasn't in bed with him.“Where is she?” He asked himself, wondering where Charlene could be. Suddenly he felt the urge of vomiting, he climbed down the bed and went to the bathroom. He vomited, rinsed his mouth and stared at his reflection in the mirror. Obviously he looked a mess, he held his head, trying to recall

Luciana invited him so they could talk about Henrietta, she implored him to allow the contract to be assigned to Henrietta but Richard never agreed. Luciana sent a text message to Henrietta to come upstairs, however she was at the door when she heard the whole conversation. She felt terrible, there was no other way to convince Richard if his mother couldn't convince him. She turned around and left disappointedly. She was about to leave the party when she saw Charlene excusing herself from others, without thinking twice she followed her. She stood behind her while she was on the phone call, she was literally jealous because she believed Charlene was the reason Richard refused to give their love a second chance.Richard looked around for her, he sauntered to his friends and asked where Charlene was, Devyn pointed at the direction he believed she would be. Jeremy rose, both of them headed toward the direction while talking. Jeremy saw Henrietta pushing her, Richard didn't notice. When h

She waited for his lips to touch her hers, instead of a light or passionate kiss Richard leaned his mouth to her ears then spoke. He figured out what she was expecting but he never intended to kiss her. “Make a wish and I'm going to grant it.” He whispered to her ear.Charlene pokily opened her eyes in embarrassment. She believed her expectation was high, nevertheless Richard never expressed a slight emotion so it was hard for her to know if he was getting fond of her or if it had always been the same. “Yes?” She flustered at him steadily.“Ask for anything.” He repeated. After all Richard had reasons for telling Charlene to make a wish, as he saw it merely looking into her eyes, the desire and desperation were obvious. She gawked at his eyes. “A wish? You'll do anything I want?” She asked to confirm what he said, he nodded. Charlene released a long breath, she gazed steadily into his eyes as both of them were close, with his right partially wrapped around her waist even if she wasn'

Devyn checked his watch for the fifth time while waiting for Richard in the car. The conference was supposed to hold for two days but Richard kept adjourning it until the third day. Eventually it was over, they had returned to the hotel but Devyn had to drive him back to the company because he forgot his phone and a file in the conference hall. It was raining outside, Devyn had tried to stop him, telling him they would get it tomorrow on their way going to the airport but he refused, his phone was more important and he also had to work on some documents tonight. Devyn looked out through the window but there was no sign of him anywhere, suddenly he heard a sound from the backseat. He abruptly looked back to see him putting the file on the backseat, he shut the door and hopped in the passenger seat. “You're wet.” He said with concern.“Just drive to the hotel.”Devyn shrugged off, obviously he was exhausted by overwork, perhaps he had been depriving himself of a good sleep lately.
