"Grandma, you can't make decisions about my marriage. You can't even force Gerald to get married, he is older," Martin cried out, not liking what his grandmother was planning. "Since you are protesting, let's start with something simple," Harriet smiled sweetly, a smile that brought goosebumps on his skin. Martin's phone beeped, he checked it and nearly fell off the sofa he was sitting on. It was a notice from his bank, informing him that his accounts had been blocked. "No! No! Grandma what are you doing?' Martin exclaimed. His hands trembled as he held his phone up to check it again. "You planned this since a long time ago, right?" He whimpered like a sick dog. Losing his international funds made him feel sick, he could even see himself falling into coma. "Yes. Get married to the woman I choose and everything will be yours again," Harriet resumed stroking her cat. "I will think about it. But please grandma don't go freezing my credit cards unless you plan on losing your gr

By the time he was satisfied and was ready to leave, Gerald found Barry and inquired about Ali. Barry was stunned that he had come back for Ali and was hesitant to explain the situation that brought the girl there. One, he feared for his life. Gerald wouldn't spare him if he were to find out that he had given him a random woman for the night. He had to tell a lie to divert Gerald's attention from the woman. However, to his horror, Gerald asked him to find the girl. Meanwhile, the person responsible for Gerald's restlessness was busy scheming on how to punish her marketing director for what he did to her. Another message was sent to her to arrive at the company early, so they could revise the presentation before it is submitted to the CEO. Ali had something else in mind. She will definitely go to the company today but not to submit any presentation. She is going there to see the director embarrass himself. After telling her aunt what to tell Harriet if she dropped by, she l

"Come inside, no one's going to eat you," Martin urged Ali and pushed her back slightly. He almost couldn't resist to touch her lower back that dipped to form a willow waist and round hips. "Come in Ali, don't stand there" Harriet called from her seat when Ali was hesitant to come in. "I was telling Gerald about you." Ali's eyes moved towards the end of the room where Gerald sat, facing the wall. Her heart was ready to fall out of her chest, she thought she was going to collapse and die before they even find out her secret. "The Aircon is on then why are you a sweating bucket?" Martin questioned as he fetched his kerchief to wipe Ali's face. Before his hand would reach her, Harriet swatted it away and glared at him. He retracted his hand to his side, rubbing it slightly because it was hurting. He eyed Harriet's frail-looking hand, wondering how, she could inflict so much pain with it. Harriet held Ali's hand and dragged her to seat beside her. She looked at her sweaty face and

She got the news that her father and stepmother won the case against her for her late mother's properties. The case has been in court since her mother died as Lucas was dragging it's ownership with her and her brother. The court, granting him ownership proved that there was foul play. Ali was so angry that she saw red. She was ready to go to the court and make a scene, but before she could leave Harriet arrived. "Why are you looking so angry? Did anyone do anything to you?" The older woman inquired, going to stand before Ali. "Yes. Someone took away what belonged to me and my brother. My father and his second wife has stripped us of what is rightfully ours. How do I cater for Joe? How do I buy his medicine? What about emergencies? I am very angry right now," Ali shouted, her heart was in anguish as she didn't expect to lose the case. She had made plans on what to do once she recovers her mother's properties. The thought of Cheyenne and Mary gloating over her misfortune, while t

Ali stepped into the room and closed it. Her eyes first stared at the bed, where she had had her first sex. The memories were foggy as she couldn't remember anything other than the pain she felt. Gerald was a complete monster that night, and he didn't even consider that she was untouched until that day. She shook her head to get rid of the dreadful experience. Choosing to move on, she wished to have more peaceful days. But that would only happen if Gerald would listen to what she has to say. She sat down on the sofa to wait for him, but ten minutes later she dozed off. Her body was weak from all the emotional stress she had gone through for the past days. Gerald walked into the club, his stride long and graceful as he made his way directly to his private room. The room was a special bonus given to him as an exclusive member and a generous investor. It was almost like he was the owner. Well in a literal sense he was, and Barry was just the owner in paper. As he walked thro
