“And I woke up like this with you. Don’t tell me it’s what I am thinking. Did you do it, did you put it inside of me.” She yelled, her voice mixed with anger. “You took advantage of me, you are evil.” Adrian’s mouth agape in shock, his eyes wide with disbelief and hurt. “Ava, what are you saying? I didn’t.” “Shut up,” she countered, “No, I can’t remember anything. I am calling the cops.” She screamed, looking around for her phone. Ava grabbed her phone, but Adrian, who wore just his boxer, moved closer. “Ava, wait it’s not what you think. I can explain.” He said, trying to calm her down. His voice was filled with anguish. Just when he thought he had the best time in three years, his wife accused him of taking advantage of her and threatened to call the cops.“You came home drunk last night, you were the one who came to my side of the bed. You came to me, you wanted it. You kissed me, Ava.” He explained. “You begged me not to leave you. I thought it was what you wanted. I never dru

Adrian cursed under his breath as a surge of adrenaline washed through him. He bolted down the street, weaving through parked cars and abandoned dumpsters. The dim street lights cast fleeting shadows that dance like spectres in the night. The men were determined, their footsteps echoing in the cold night air. A crack of a gunshot echoed through the night; the bullet struck a steel container, missing Adrian. His mind continued to race as he scanned for an escape route.He found an open space where he rushed towards, hoping to disappear from the men, only to find himself at the dead end of a street. “Damn it,” he muttered in frustration.As he thought of running, a distant hum of the engine grew louder, with a black SUV screeched at the corner. Its headlights cut through the darkness like twin blades. Adrian barely had time to process what was happening. The door swung open, and two men in black alighted from the car and pulled out their guns, opening with precision. The first shot

Simon could tell they were all becoming impatient, and he had something installed for them. These people have worked with him for decades, but he is beginning to see their true colours. A few of them wanted him to step down so they could input someone they wanted, who would be by their side, but Simon was smart and wouldn’t allow them to succeed.A small smirk formed by the side of his lips; he stood up, adjusting his suit in confidence. It was time to show them he had a family member who would succeed him. He gestured towards the doors of the hall. “Allow me to introduce you to my successor.”The room fell into deep silence as all eyes tossed towards the door, which creaked open, Revealing a tall, dark-haired young figure.Adrian walked into the hall with confidence, leaving them in shock, as their faces were etched in disbelief.“Who is this?” Olivia asked, as his face turned pale.Adrian stood beside Simon, he kept a mild expression as he watched the men and women before him. They

“I don’t know mom. I knew I slept with Both Adrian and Wesley.” Mrs. Delilah Sharp’s gaze lifted to her daughter, her lips tightening in disapproval. “What do you mean? You are pregnant, and you don’t know who the father of your baby is. Is that how I trained you?”Ava placed the test strip down, she couldn’t shake the weight of the situation that was pressing down on her. She remembered having a one-night thing with her ex-husband, who is now a millionaire, and the next day, she slept with Wesley, her boyfriend. “Everything is messy, I can’t tell who is the father.” She replied.There was a moment of silence between them, as Ava kept a downward gaze.“I know who the father is,” Mrs Delilah spilt out while Ava stared at her mother in confusion. “Yes, the father is Adrian.”Ava sniffed softly, “But, Mom, you can’t tell. What if Wesley is the baby's father? What are we going to do?” Ava asked in a low tone.“Shut up, You should be ashamed of yourself that you don’t know who got you pr
