Shane walked back to his office, he slammed the door after him and it was so hard that a frame fell from the wall and smashed on the floor. He ran his hand through his perfectly slicked back black hair and ended up ruining the nice work. He stared at the desk, all he could remember was how elegantly she walked in, her exquisite she looked, how gracefully she spoke and how she had announced it to his mother that she was rich.How could she do this to him? How could she break his heart the second time? Nine years, nine long years he had waited, believed that there must be a good reason while she left that night, that she would come back and explain everything to him and then they could go back to how they used to be but all along she had been married? Freaking married!Robert was married eight years ago which means they might had been courting in one year. God! The thought alone was driving him insane and he strode to his desk and wiped everything on it on the floor, including his compu

Standing in front of the mirror in his dressing room, Shane sighed knotting his bow tie, the gala night has finally arrived and he wasn’t looking forward to it as always and tonight seemed to be worse because there was another reason, someone he wants to see and also not want to see. Working with her for the past four days wasn’t as easy as he had expected, not when she kept on showing up in different types of black attires which always made her look like a dark angel.He put on his wristwatch wondering which black designers she would be in tonight, he hoped it won’t be one that would make her irresistible, heaven, he doesn’t want to find her irresistible. Looking at himself one last time in the mirror, he turned and left the room. He picked up his phone and car key along the way and left the living room. He made his way to the elevator, pressed the down floor button and waited, trying to not get himself to be thinking like he had been doing a lot these past days.When he finally arri

“Oh,” Lillian said, so he is the famous Xavier Gray, that means Shane was wrong, Xavier is her type of man, but that’s if she wasn’t already in love with someone else.“Yes, and it’s a pleasure finally meeting you Mrs. Williams or can I call you Lillian?” He asked, a soft smile playing on his lips, his dark hazel eyes perusing her face as if to imprint every little detail in his mind.“I’m sorry Mr. Gray but I am just getting to know you, only my friends call me by my first name.”“I understand,” he smiled, “although I do hope I would be upgraded to the friend zone sometime soon.”“Time would tell Mr. Gray.”“Call me Xavier,” he still had his hand stretched out to her and she sighed, putting her hand in his, he turned it just in time to place a kiss on her knuckles.Lillian took back her hand almost immediately, “alright Xavier, nice meeting you.”A chord starting playing and Xavier smiled, “will I be honored to take you on your first dance tonight?”“Actually, I’m looking for someone

The night swayed away with Shane watching Lillian dance with different men, her line of men doubled over, or he should say tripled over after Mr. Davis introduced her as the wife of the famous late Robert Williams, he wouldn’t say he was happy or at peace with everything but he was trying to convince himself that he doesn’t care about her and that he hates her. But every time she marched to the dance floor with another partner, he always feel like murdering someone and his only solace was alcohol and he drank more of it. Glass after glass.He lost his cool when it was second to the last dance and seeing the young man approaching her, he quickly dumped his drink on a waiter’s try and marched towards her in time just as Xavier Gray did. “Mrs. Williams, I have come for my dance.”Lillian looked at him shocked and wanted to remind him that he never asked her to dance and besides, she promised him the last dance when she heard, “actually Mrs. Williams, I believe I am the one you promised t

“I don’t want Mrs. Williams, but I’m not going to let you have her too, at least not while she still holds my company’s shares, so I will advice you and your father should stop dreaming” he turned and walked back to the hall with Xavier staring after him in hatred.He ran his hand through his hair and looked back at the way the limo had left, he smiled and yelled after Shane, “you are wrong Shane, I’m going to win both her and your shares, mark my word.”Shane held in his anger and refrained from replying him, he made his way into the hall but only to find his mom and tell her about his departure.***A black limo stopped in front of a gigantic gate, the gate opened to reveal a two storey manor, the outside walls were white and a little touch of brown, the lamps’ lights illuminated the building, showing off the animal shaped flowers and lilies which grew in every part of the house.The car parked in front of the house and the driver got down and opened the back door, Lillian stepped o
