Deciding to pursue the ‘solar high tech’ business proposal, the next morning Richie decided to meet up with a new company that worked in the line of business with Alexis, his PA. When his car came to a stop infront of the company, he spotted a red sports car that he could swear, looked exactly like Gordon’s. “Your mind is running places, Richie”. He chided himself. “Anyone can have that same type of car”. As he tried to move his gaze away from the car, he couldn’t help but notice the plate number as he cursed softly. There was no denying it. That was Gordons car, alright. Richie heaved a heavy sigh as he started to dwell in numerous contemplations and seeing just how his mood had changed instantly, Alexis probed him further. “Are you alright, sir?”. Deciding not to let his hatred towards Gordons get the best of him, he decided to lift up his mood by turning to face Alexis, flashing her his best smile. “Do you have anything to say? Like maybe a funny joke you’ve heard of before or

Kate bit down on her lips trying to suppress her moans as Richie’s hands twirled round her pussy. She was sure as hell that she was having a wet dream but even with that, she could bring herself to moan out loud because if she did remember correctly, she’d slept in Richie’s room and tha only meant that he was around her. Kate’s toes curled up In a ball as she heard Richie’s groan, his fingers sliding through the walls of her hymen as she finally let out a soft moan. Kate tried to remind herself over and over again not to enjoy this. She tried to channel back all the hatred she felt towards Richie in her mind but still with that, there was denying she was enjoying this. Kate felt hot tears form at the back of her eyes as she tried to remember when last she’d been tired passionately like this. Everytime it was either Richie was touching her violently or the other. She’d missed this. Although she couldn’t remeneber when last she’d felt soft gently touches as this upon her skin.

CHAPTER 33Very early the following morning, Kate noticed Richie leave the bed slowly, trying not to wake her up, thinking she was sleeping, but she still did. It was even at that moment he’d woken up that Kate was about to fall asleep because it be honest, she couldn’t sleep all night thinking Richie would do something to her like last night. She was still angry with herself on how she’d given in so easily to her desires that night. But now, back to the present, Kate couldn’t fall asleep because she’d mistakenly overhead Richie’s conversation on the phone. “What do you mean, you can’t do it!?” Richie snarled angrily. While, she’d probed her ears further to understand Richie’s conversation, he’d then remainined silent, listening to the the receiver. “Look, get it for me by whatever means necessary. I need it!”.And with that said, he hung up before joining her back on the bed. Richie placed a soft kiss on her forehead, thinking she was still asleep as he turned around, heading to

Settling on what to wear, Kate decided to pretend as if she didn’t notice Richie walk in. She pretends to be scared when he wrapped his arms around her waist as he placed a soft kiss at the nape of neck. But meanwhile she wasn't scared. Rather, she liked it. Richie backed away from her to push back the curls of her hair behind her ears. "We would be going out to get your favourite ice cream today". "Can I go alone?" Kate asked. Seeing Richie's expression darken immediately and sensing that he was angry, she apologized. "I'm sorry. I was just hoping for some alone time and you did promise to do it for me one day so I was thinking 'why not now'?" Richie sifted his hands through his hair, clearly annoyed that despite all his efforts to keep her safe this was all she could ever think of. "Let's not forget that Gordons is still out looking for you. Your death isn't really something to joke about and anything can happen" Kate tilted her head to the side, partly confused. He'd just s

"Ah..". Kate screamed as she felt oil splash on her body. She couldn't believe that she was actually cooking for Richie.Although she didn't get the chance to cook much as she was always serving Gordons back then, she was still an excellent cook. "Yep. You murdered it girl" Kate said as she tasted the soup. "You sure?" Mariam teased as Kate let out a playful grumble. "Why haven't you gone yet? I don't like being watched while cooking. I might slip up or something?""Are sure that's not just an excuse for bad cooking?" Mariam teased as Kate grumbled again. "Fine, I'll leave". Finally having the kitchen all to herself, Kate switched over to a master chef as she started dicing the onions alongside other vegetables as she turned them into the pan. When she saw it was looking good, she broke some eggs into it. "First dish done". She said with a smile. Next she moved to the side dishes. She brought out the frozen chicken from the refrigerator as she defrosted it. When it was defrosted
