Riley punched her laptop's keyboards with so much annoyance. Earlier on after informing Nick about resuming the following morning, he sent her a file to work on to be submitted that night with a threat of replacing her with another person if she doesn't submit it at the stipulated time.

"He taunts me at every chance he gets, how the hell will I finish this tonight?," she continued typing and scanning through the file.

The ring coming out from her phone diverted her attention. "I really hope it's not that a*shole calling." She sighed out and reached for the phone, a smile appeared on her face after seeing who it was.

"Hi Riley." A masculine voice spoke.

"Who is on the line?," she asked in a non-challant tone.

"I know you must be very angry at me for not returning any of your calls and replying to your messages. I didn't know the meeting was a trap for me to work more and had meetings with lots of people. I got back a few minutes ago and decided to call you first. I'm so sorry," Im

    "I think about you every time. A bright smile always appear on my face whenever I remember the s*x we had that day, it was so beautiful that I couldn't get it off my mind. I love you so much Riley, I want you to be mine forever." Imposter Matt said, with his eyes fixed on her eyes.Riley looked away shyly, smiling heartily and blushing hard. "He is so romantic, he flatters me at every opportunity he gets. It was the best s*x I have had for the last 10 years. He satisfy me with everything, no doubt, I want to be with this guy forever." She thought inwardly with a bright smile."If you are thinking of leaving me, abort it right now because I won't allow that to happen." He jokingly said and they laughed out."I would never think of leaving you, this is the first time in many years that I would be deeply in love with someone. That f**l, Liam is nothing close to you," she confessed fixing her eyes on her."This is a good opportunity to accomplish what I am here for tonight.""If you truly

    "Listen up everybody, I need you all to abandon whatever you are doing right now." Jason instructed in a loud tone, everybody suspended whatever they were doing and looked at him, then Hudson walked in and looked at him. "The issue is that we all ate and drank more than Hudson could afford, so right now everybody needs to contribute to the bills or else we won't be allowed to leave here without being embarrassed," he announced, all eyes looking at Hudson who stood there with his head bowed. Liam scoffed and folded his arms. "You meant everything Liam said was true? How could you allow us eat and drink so much when you know you can pay?. I lost my job last month and there is no money on me. What are we going to do now?." Cynthia stated out of concern. "Baby, you know the company that signed me for a modelling job suddenly terminated the contract and I had to refund their money, I don't have money now. I'm sorry." Becca explained with an apology. "You know we are in the last week of

    "Are you paying with your card, sir?." The waiter asked after a long silence from Hudson. "Does it look as if he can pay?," Liam questioned in a mockery tone, they all glared at him. "How can you say such a thing, he is more than capable to pay for it. Nobody asked for your opinion you f**l." Linda snapped at him. "You are here to eat the kind of delicacies you haven't had in years, so keep shut and keep eating before we all shut it for you." Jason threatened, Liam bursted into a boisterous laughter immediately after he stopped speaking. They were surprised to how he reacted. "Why are you laughing? Nothing is funny useless ex-live-in son-in-law." Becca fired at him angrily. Liam stood up and faced Hudson. "Why did you have to lie to everyone? I know your family is bankrupt and you are only living on the money you got from some of your companies you sold." He revealed with a smirk playing on his face. "How the h*ll did he know about it? Everybody involved promised us to keep the i

    Liam's focus was on the monitor as he punched the keys impatiently. "Why do I have to forget my password?," he questioned himself out of frustration. He just got into the office and tried logging in, but incorrect password kept popping up on the screen."The first letter is in capital letter, sir." Lisa said, walking in fully and standing before his table."Oh thank you." He appreciated, tried and it worked."I think you need to take a break sir, you have being stressing yourself from the first day you took over," she pointed out, with a concerned look on her face.Liam adjusted himself and smiled. "This is not the time to rest because there is a lot to do. What do I have on my schedule today?," he asked in a lower tone."You have a meeting with Demmy company by 10 : 00 am, another meeting by 1 : 00 pm, another meeting with Hudson and a reunion by 4 : 00 pm." Lisa listed out immediately."That's fair enough, reschedule the meeting with Hudson to 9 : 00 am tomorrow." "Alright sir, sh

    Evelyn opened the door with a bright smile. The smile disappeared when she saw Riley standing in front of the door with tears flowing down her cheek. "Come here baby." She pulled her into a hug for few minutes. They disengaged, Evelyn pulled her in and made her sit. "Let me get you some water" she rushed into the fridge, brought out a bottled water and handed it over to her. "Thank you Mum." Riley appreciated in a monotone. She watched her gulp down the water. "You look more better than the time I saw you outside. You came home earlier than usual, looking shattered. What happened?," "Mum, could you believe Grandmother and Nick went behind my back to convince the board to make him the CEO and make me his assistant. I served this family with all I have and this is all I could get in return?," as she explained tears gathered around her eyes ready to fall freely. Evelyn's eyes widened. "How could they do such thing, you have more shares than anyone else automatically you are the CEO
