Despite spending more time than she intended to with her godmother, Melissa got no other information other than the one she got in the office. On her way home with Tommy sleeping from exhaustion, she checked the information she found in the office. Most of which were just normal company transactions apart from the documents he had sent his driver to get. It had detailed information of their next shipment. 'Why would they want me to see this?' She wondered thinking back to what Jessica had told her. Shaking her head not letting herself dig so much into her doubts about her godmother, she tacked the phone back into her bag. Everything was clearly written down giving her a good chance for the police to look into what they were transporting but she decided not to inform anyone about it. Though Mark was willing to help, she had to get the correct facts first. Understand their company operations and get evidence that would without a doubt take Mr. Steven down. All she wanted was j

On the way to the hotel, Mark busied himself with his office work as Melissa sat quietly beside him. Acting like she didn't exist, he discussed his work schedule with his assistant as he went through the documents he had to sign. Her gaze trailed to the colorful buildings they passed getting to the heart of the city, she wondered why he brought her along. He was not as playful as he was in Tommy's room. With his straight face screaming don't get any closer, one could hardly believe he was the same person. Glancing at him, she thought of starting a conversation but thought against it opting to alight. "Drop me off at the intersection. I will take a taxi to the hotel." Avoiding being seen arriving in his limousine, she requested. As the driver slowed down, he caught his boss's gaze through the rearview mirror. "Keep driving." Mark instructed his attention still on his work. "Hey, stop." Melissa shouted as the vehicle neared the highway, but they didn't stop. Biting her bottom

Seated outside under the stars adorned sky, Mr. Johnson watched Tommy play with the toys he got from the playroom. His lips curving up in delight, he nodded to himself. Without a doubt Tommy was his grate grandson. The little boy was fond of toy cars just like Mark was when he was his age. And when the time comes, he will take over from his dad. "Careful my boy." Mr Johnson smiled cautioning Tommy when he got up abruptly as Spark ran to him. The dog was fond of Mark, always staying by his feet but with Tommy around it went to him, surprising the old man. It ran around with Tommy and brought him a ball to play catch until they got tired and went to his mother. As Melissa carried Tommy on her lap to rest his eye's, the dog rested at her feet. Comfortably closing its eyes. Seeing how intimate Spark was with the mother and son, surprised the old man more. The dog had warmed up to her, yet he only went to the people familiar to him. "Is he asleep? Let me help you." Standing protecti

"Are you going to answer that?" Nancy found Melissa staring at her ringing phone when she got to the office. "It's no one important." Melissa sat up putting the phone back in her bag. "If you say so, but that person is rather persistent. That phone has been ringing severally, you should answer if you don't want that person to form a search party to for you." Nancy stated eyeing her bag as the phone rang again. "It's no one." Melissa insisted putting the phone on silent. "Back to business. A client is remodeling their house and they asked for you, to be their designer." Nancy stated handing her a folder with the clientele's information. "Why would they ask for me, I thought you and Jenifer were handling this?" She asked skimming through the documents. "We were but not anymore, they specifically asked for you. The meeting is in half an hour, but no worries the company van will take you to the meeting place. Everything you need to know about the client is in the folder, go brak

"You can't drink anymore Ms Sasha." She held the bottle tight slapping her bodyguard's hand away when he tried to take it. "I can drink as much as I want, get out of my face or I'll have you fired." She waved her phone, gulping down the bear not caring how it left a burning sensation down her throat. She was not used to taking bear but at the moment she needed something to numb her feelings. Seating in a casino bar with her bodyguard standing beside her, she drank herself to oblivion just to forget the events of the day. For the first time, she had offered herself to a man only to be rejected and humiliated publicly. He had chosen a beggar's daughter over her. Her family had put so much trust in their union, but now she was not able to secure it which was disheartening. Since the day her grandfather told her about the planned marriage, she has been trying to catch Mark's attention never succeeding but after a few weeks with the low-life Melissa, he starts setting up romantic d
