101."Bring my money now or I expose you in the worst way!" Carolyn's mother thundered from the opposite end of the phone leaving her with even more shocks than necessary. "I see... You don't even think to pretend to care about my well-being, but she would rather tell me that you want me to bring money for that, the most that I can offer to you, right?!" She slammed back at her. For many reasons best known to her, she has several things that could have been done to alleviate the anger she was feeling, but it wasn't going to work. "You don't have any right to speak to your mother in that way! You're not going to leave your family stranded now are you? You have access to the most but you chose not to utilize it well. How long will it take for you to convince Jonathan to give us the money that we deserve?" Her mother fired back at her. "You do not deserve shit from me especially in this manner. I have to endure everything that he does for me just because I want to make him happy, bu

102"Sneaking back into your own home isn't how I expected you to spend today but I guess it's okay..." Orion's voice snapped her back to the present. Samantha froze just as she spotted Orion. They had both been neck deep in planning but she had decided to just take a break and not allow everything to overwhelm her anymore It was a decision that was based on what she wanted to achieve and was not sentimental about it. "Yeah, I should have informed you that I was going to be staying up late, but I just..." She trailed off. It was one thing to have lies stored up; it was another for you to know that it was not going to fly, so there was no need for you to get involved in that. "I see... So you've been busy. Is that what this is?" Orion challenged her. For the life of her, she couldn't understand why he was so paramount about wherever she went and returned from. It was almost as though he was giving her a close marking and that was beginning to piss her off. "I didn't think that I

103"What does all of this mean?" Barrister Dexter demanded, glancing at the charts that his clients had brought before him as a means of evidence."for a millisecond I thought that I was dreaming but now it seems that all of my fears are true. How do you even explain this huh? you think that I'm the one who's going to give people the permission to trample on your business?" Orion maintained a calm persona that could send anyone crazy yet he wasn't moved by it."How much did my brother pay you? Don't try to act stubborn or else this is not going to work in your favor." Orion declared.He was a lot of things but being a coward wasn't part of them and dealing with people who had always tracked to ruin his legacy was his favorite sport which was going to end anything so therefore he might as well I will just make judicious use of it."You think that I'm going to be working against someone that I swear to protect legally? Do you have the slightest idea of what that is going to do to my c

104.Samantha strolled back and forth to the bedroom balcony. She had immersed herself in work thinking that it was going to be easy to forget about the man who went out and was hoping not to even return immediately. Yet she was forced to have to do something completely different from what she ever had in mind. Her hands hovered over her phone but her instincts said otherwise in fact she was thinking about how best to make sure that she sorted everything out. Had she said too much and sent him away? How was she supposed to know? A sigh escaped her lips. She had never been this expressive when she was with Jonathan. Maybe she was starting to see Orion even a little bit more and she wanted things to work out beautifully before him instead of what he had convinced himself was right. She picked up her phone and decided to call a long time friend instead. If she didn't talk to anyone right now she was going to lose her mind. Louisa picked up on the third ring. "Hey darling, am I in

105 "What a coincidence. If anyone had told me that I was going to be seeing you in the flesh, I would have laughed at them, but here you are..." Jonathan smiled as soon as he spotted an angry Samantha. "Who pissed you off today? Certainly not me." He said, putting down the dumbbell as soon as she came even closerSamantha closed the distance between both of them refusing to allow his words get under her skin. "What the hell have you been doing? Are you trying to poach all our clients to yourself?" She demanded from him He already knew the reason why she was here, and there was no need to beat around the bush or pretend like neither of them knew what was at stake. "I'm sorry if this comes to you suddenly, but I don't have the time to start looking for clients. In fact, I am very busy." He shrugged nonchalantly. "Of course, I was expecting you to deny it, and that's why I'm here to warn you off. You don't want to get into a fight with someone like me." She warned him. "Absolutel

106. The house was warm but Samantha felt cold. The rate of their argument was enough to send anybody senile but the only thing that kept her in shape was the fact that she had decided not to lose her mind no matter what. All she needed to do was to focus on what was more important and after then she could go on and about doing whatever she pleased. "Louisa I don't know what is wrong with me but we keep arguing over the most baseless things." "Matters of the heart are so complicated and no one can really explain it." Louisa responded off-handedly. Well, for Samantha she would not want to admit to herself that she was falling in love with a man that did not even look like he really cared about her. They had tumbled into bed together again and all she could think of was the fact that this did not mean anything to him. He had said it all the time that this was strictly a contract but yet she was going about catching feelings. "I know... But I'm saying that we are both civil people

Results Speak. Samantha's perfume moved throughout the entire house reminding everybody of her presence without any mistakes. Orion was going to have to do better if he wanted the results that he thought he deserved. She wasn't going to compromise on the quality that she had been able to build for herself over the years, and at the same time was also skeptical about introducing anything that was going to make her look like the bad guy. Orion watched her carefully mingle with his guests, enjoying the entire process as she moved on, gliding like an angel. "Babe, come on, why don't we introduce ourselves to these people? Not everybody already knows us." She urged him. Anyone who didn't know better would think that they were the perfect couple, and they never had any fights, but that was nothing but a lie. "Aha, don't they now?" Orion asked sarcastically. If she wanted to play the perfect cup well, then he was ready and up to the task to make sure that she saw him in a different li

108.A Glimpse Of Her. "Damn, if I didn't know better I would have thought that you truly meant everything that you said outside there. How do you even come up with the most ridiculous ways of handling situations?" Samantha dropped her bag unceremoniously on the sofa as soon as they walked in. Orion held back his comments because then both of them they're going to spiral into deep conversations that he didn't think she wanted to hear at all no matter how much she pretended to. He was just going to let it slide, pretend like it was one of those things and make sure that she was not weirded out just as time went on. "Maybe some of us just have a way of handling people so that they see the best in all instead of the worst." He said critically not sharing her excitement. Samantha raised her eyebrows. She knew what was coming and would pretend like she had absolutely no idea if that was going to give her the peace that she desired. "I know that I shouldn't be asking you this but, why

109. Samantha placed a palm on her chest, to quell the panting organ. Shit, she was this close to giving herself to him on a platter of gold and this time it wasn't for show or just for pretense. Well, what was the worst that could happen? She would probably just be too attached to him, like she feared, and it would be harder for both of them to part ways when it was time. Orion just wanted her in her feelings and that was why he kept reassuring her that they didn't need to move away from each other when it was time. A long time ago she would have believed anything that came out of a man's mouth and even though Orion had not given her any reason to be afraid of him or doubt his words she just couldn't wrap her head around the fact that he wanted her so close. What if he was secretly seeing other mistresses and she was there deluding herself into thinking that she was the only one that made his heart beat. All she needed to do was to get into her bath tub and soak in it until she

Only one thing had been holding both of them down and the earlier they found a way of dealing with it the better it would be for everybody instead of thinking about how colossal it was going to become when things went to the way they did. "Jonathan is going to show up in 5 minutes. Do you need to be worried about him?" Samantha look over her shoulder discreetly trying to communicate with Orion. If for nothing sake, Jonathan was going to make sure that he found a way of messing things up so that they were left on the road without having anything tangible to do. "I don't think it's going to show up because something is going to tell him that I'm going to be present and that thing is freaking right." He responded. Samantha was the one with high hopes around here that this was not going to be a fluke. If he had been rumored to be somewhere around then it was only going to take a few minutes to make sure that they sorted out everything and that there was no communication whatsoever. "
