After work that day, Theresa was about to head back home, but just as she stepped out of the parking lot, she noticed a figure standing there, as clearly he had been waiting for her."Ms. Blackwell," he called in a very soft tone, one that seemed capable of sweeping any lady off her feet.Theresa finally looked up as she realized that it was Mr. Viktor, the same man who wanted to invest in her company."What are you doing here?" She asked with a flicker of surprise."Isn't that obvious, I have been waiting for you, please don't tell me you totally forgot about the dinner we were supposed to have today?""Oh that, but I don't think I agreed""Please don't do that now, I already booked a reservation, and as much as money isn't a problem, it cost me quite a lot"He continued to speak in his very soft tone while he collected her bag and started heading towards his car.Theresa stood there like she was lost in her thoughts while staring at him, knowing fully well that she had not informed

After Theresa's request regarding a baby, Daniel had been so stunned, that was something he had not expected and didn't know how to reply to, and because of that, he had not given her a response.Yet, Theresa did not press him for an answer, hoping that once he was ready he would say something, because for her, she had truly fallen in love with him and was hoping that the marriage would be turned into a real one."Good morning!" Theresa had greeted as soon as she came downstairs after their conversation that day, because he had not spent the night in the same room with her the way they had been doing lately.And Daniel was hoping that he would leave the house very quietly before she woke up, but Theresa was disturbed by the situation and couldn't sleep, which was why she had also woken up early."I recently acquired Hayes Corporation and would be going over for some meetings with the board""I know," she muttered, her voice barely above a whisper, and she had already started moving to

James Ferguson was not a man who begged. In all his years of building the Ferguson empire, he had never once asked for help in the manner he was doing today.Because for a businessman like him, it had always been a game of give and take, finding what the other party wanted, giving it to them, and then asking for a favor.But sitting in Lord Zane's living room right now, with the weight of everything pressing down on him all at once, he understood that this was not a moment for pride.This was a moment for survival, because everything was on the line, and unless he survived this time, he would not have the chance to take his revenge on Theresa Blackwell again."Lord Zane." He leaned forward with his elbows on his knees and his hands clasped in front of him. "I am not going to waste your time with more excuses about what I did, please I just need your help, help me"He continued to repeat the same word he had said before, while Lord Zane said nothing, his eyes blankly staring at the man

Lisa Hayes kept screaming all the way to the station, and the same way they had taped her husband's mouth, they had done the same thing to her.When they finally arrived, they took her straight to the same place where they had interrogated Paul when he was first brought in.Lisa sat on the wooden chair, her eyes scanning the area before she adjusted herself and tried so hard to seem calm, like the entire situation had no effect on her at all."I want some water!" She ordered the first officer who walked in, and he wasn't surprised by her behavior, knowing fully well that he had seen people like her before and knew just how to break them."Mrs. Lisa Hayes!" The man spoke calmly, offering her a bottle of water just like she had requested, before settling opposite her.Although he was not smiling, yet the expression on his face was calm, and to Lisa, this was a very minor situation, one that she would be out of soon."Why am I here, you do realize that I can charge you with harassment?"

Daniel took Theresa upstairs, where he had already prepared bath water for her. He had gone out of his way to add some scented oils to help with all the aches on her body.Once Theresa had gone to take her bath, Daniel quickly moved downstairs, where he quickly made her something to eat, and by the time she was done, she joined him downstairs.But the moment his eyes caught her walking towards him at the dining room, he froze right at that moment. His throat became dry while he tried to swallow hard.And at the same time, something inside his trousers was already beginning to bulge out real hard.She was dressed in a pink and very short nightgown, it was so short that it was barely covering her thighs, the arms were sleeveless, but the more enticing part of it was the fact that it was silk.So smooth that her breasts pointed right out of the dress. There is no way any man would be faced with a beauty like her and not be able to keep staring."What is it, do I look bad?" She asked as s

The moment Theresa returned back home, she realized that the entire place was quiet, almost like there was no one at home.But just as she walked in, Daniel, who heard the sound of her car, came downstairs immediately.He had been on the phone with Viper all this while, planning the next step on how to handle James Ferguson and his daughter.Daniel was fully aware that this was not the first time that they had tried an attack on his wife, and after this time, humiliation was not enough, he was certain he would find other means to make sure that they never tried such a thing ever again."You are back?" A smile spread across his face as he walked down the stairs, and before she even expected it, he wrapped his arms around her.Knowing fully well that he was not always one for the cozy, she was taken aback by his action just now, and as if that was not enough, he loosened his grip from her and slowly kissed her lips.It was a very brief kiss, yet it made Theresa's heart flutter as she st
