Soon,Daphne fell asleep,basking in the warmth of his arms.Griffin shifted his head a bit so he could stare at the body on top of him.She was so lovely.Oh how he wish it wasn’t so complicated to be with her.Daphne woke up to something poking at her.Her eyes widened when she realized what it was.His manhood was erect and had made a huge tent in his trousers.Since she was lying against him,she couldn’t help but feel it pressed against her.She bit her lip,nervously,not knowing whether to move on not.In the confines of the car,Griffin knew she was feeling him and he just smiled watching her turn into a blushing mess.In a hoarse voice,Daphne asked.“What time is it?”Griffin’s warm breath caressed her skin as he whispered in her ear.“It’s past 2:am.I could take you home now if you want.”Daphne remained,motionless.As much as feeling his erection made her nervous,it also aroused her,greatly and she wanted to keep feeling it.Suddenly,a chuckle escape Griffin’s lips.He gently cupped h

“Do you know how much Jacob complained about the fact that you were too prudish to sleep with him?Too bad now that you will never know what it feels to be in bed with him.”Daphne stared at Nadia,squarely.Did Nadia seriously believe that not ever having sex with Jacob will make her sad?If anything,it made her grateful and relieved.It was her only consolation that she never got in bed with that shameless pig.“I wish you and Jacob everlasting happiness.”Daphne said,sarcastically.She forcefully pushed Nadia aside and walked away.Nadia’s face contorted in anger.However, she felt a bit satisfied.Afterall,Daphne’s family was in turmoil and she had lost her career.She was nothing now.An absolute nobody.In a happy mood,Nadia sat down and sent a text to Jacob.“I just got a new dress.It’s very sexy and you’re going to like it.Can you come by my house tonight.”She waited and waited for a reply but his reply came almost three hours later.“I’m very busy tonight.And how many times do I h

Daphne was restless for the rest of the night and when she finally got up in the morning.She washed her face and brushed her teeth.She stared at herself in the mirror trying to put on a positive attitude for the day so that Nora would not suspect anything.As she swung the door open to go to the kitchen,she found Nora standing there with a pale face,her lips trembling as she said.“Daphne, your…your father attempted suicide.”Daphne’s blood ran cold in her vein,her heart sunk to the floor.“My…my…”She stuttered unable to speak.“I just got a call from the police.He had attempted to take his own life but they managed to save him.I was told that he’s in a very critical condition.”And then Nora burst into tears.”He’s probably gotten so frustrated from being locked up for something he didn’t do.This is so unfair.This is so so unfair.”She cried.Daphne’s mind was in turmoil as she stood still in front of the crying woman and she listened to the pained cries echoing through the room.She co

Not wanting Nora to worry anymore,Daphne made up a story. She promised to visit Gary and also with Layla, exploring any possible avenues of help. Nora, comforted by her repeated assurances, eased her grip slightly and tried to remain positive that they could get out of this predicament without Daphne become Jacob’s mistress.*************In a private hospital in Chicago,Jacob was sent to a ward after receiving treatment.He changed into a loose hospital gown, with layers of gauze wrapped around his waist.Even so, he continued discussing business with his secretary.And then,Lucia arrived.Her eyes were bloodshot as she stared at him in disbelief. "Jacob, who did this to you?"If Lucia finds out it was Nora who did it,then he will have to explain why she did and get himself in trouble so he immediately made up a story. Fortunately, Lucia did not show signs of suspicion and felt sorry for him.Staring at her eyes that were laced with genuine concern, Jacob couldn’t help but think of D

Daphne felt so exhausted yet she couldn’t seem to fall asleep that night.Tossing and turning on the bed,she just wanted to get some sleep.Just as she was on the brink of slumber,she felt a pair of strong arms embrace her on the bed and then a deep voice called out her name.“Daphne…”Startled,her eyes opened widely.The moonlight cast a faint glow upon the bed in the dark room.Sitting up,Daphne realized she had been dreaming about Griffin holding her.Heck, it had felt so real.The bedroom door creaked open and Griffin quietly walked in.Seeing Daphne sitting up on the bed,he slowly walked up to her and sat beside her.“Why are you still awake?”He asked,running his hand through her hair.Daphne sighed,heavily.”I can’t seem to fall asleep.”And then he gently pull her close to him and made her lie her head on his shoulder.He understood perfectly well on why she was troubled.“I’ve taken care of everything and I’ll see to it that all your troubles will be settled in the morning.If a
