LOGINCHAPTER 94ISAIAHI stepped forward like a teenager in love, I took Annika’s hands. Her face flushed, frozen, “Can’t I be selfish? I want you Annika, can’t you look at me?” I have never sounded so pathetic, so love-struck in my entire life on earth. But with Annika, I am a fool, an idiot who doesn’t know the right thing to do.But I still want her. I don’t mind being a fool around her, because she is the only one who’d ever see me this way.Annika was yet to say a word. Her face was so blank, like she wasn’t sure how to react. I’d say she is in disbelief but come on, this girl as seen my butt, we have fucked in places that should never been used for such activities, surely she is not stunned about my confession.“Why? No wait…How?”Is she serious?“Sultan, are you serious?”“Yes. I mean, you..I …Uhm…”“Is it that hard to believe that I am in love with you?” I asked.“Yes.”“Oh my goodness, Baby, we have literally done shit in all kinds of places, and you did not expect me to fall in l
CHAPTER 93ISAIAHI have read a lot of news, a lot of people keep saying Mirabel and I looked good together. They keep saying what a happy family we make, how beautiful we look together. Some yelled that they were envious of us for having such a beautiful family.I didn’t care about any of those words because those people had no idea what was actually happening. Those people were being deceived by the image Mirabel created and they were drowning in it.I didn’t care about the backlash because the people around me know the truth and would never suggest I give Mirabel another chance. In fact, if anyone else said it, Jerald, Xavier, I probably would just brush it off but hearing those words slip out of Annika’s mouth was like having a dagger driven into my chest over and over.My fist clenched as my eyes bore into hers, watching how she sat there unaffected by what she just suggested.“Do you realize what you just asked of me?” My deep voice rumbled against my chest. My hands were trembl
Chapter 92ISAIAHDing dong.I rang the doorbell of Annika’s apartment, my eyes darted towards the flowers in my hands, her favorite flowers and a box of fried chicken and four cans of beer.I called Hazel after leaving the office, she obviously a money sucking parasite asked for my card so she could spoil Sophie for the weekend since Sophie was going to be at her place.I gave her the card because I really want to spend some time alone with Annika. Lulu’s words haunted me more than they should.I rang the doorbell again and this time the door opened and my beautiful stood there, her hair roughly up in a bun, her eyes squinted as if she was stepping into the light for the first time today. She was in her silk night dress and robe, looking exhausted.Was she sick?“Are you okay?” The words rolled off my mouth as my hands moved to feel her temperature. She flinched a little but soon her tensed body relaxed into my touch.“What are you doing here, you should be at work.” She muffled, her
Chapter 91 ISAIAH I walked into my office, hands tucked into my pockets, Annika’s office was empty. I marched into my office, slid into my chair, I was about to text her when a knock came on my door. “Come in,” I said. The door creaked open and Lulu stepped in. She was dressed in a light blue shirt and brown trousers. Her heels clicked on the floor as she walked closer to me. “Good morning sir.” She greeted. My eyes stayed on her. Lulu is a good friend of Annika, a friend who sincerely cares for her and while she is Chloe’s little sister, she is the polar opposite. Lulu doesn't come to my office unless it’s important or unless it involves Annika. “Is there a problem, Ms Snow?” I asked, referring to her surname because we're not close enough for a first-name basis. “Uhm, not really sir. Annika wanted me to pass on the message that she would be taking a few days off. She sent an email but she wanted me to do a follow-up to make sure you’re aware.” Her voice was calm yet I could se
Chapter 90 MIRABEL“Sam will call you before noon. You should have your bags ready. You will be moved to a private hotel until Sam gets a temporary apartment for you. Also, you no longer have the privilege to meet with my daughter. Or me. If you want to see my daughter, the court will decide that.” Those cold words slipped out of his mouth. No ounce of emotion attached to them. His eyes held this coldness, this darkness I had never seen before. His expression was blank. He didn't look mad but he didn't look pissed. He said his piece and walked out the door without sparing me a glance. My fist clenched, because all I could do was stand in his living room, in my joggers and white tee, hair tied in a bun, hands clinging to a cup of coffee the nanny made. My throat bobbed. My eyes flickered in disbelief. I watched his back turned to me, I watched as he slowly disappeared out of sight and all I could do was stand there helpless, speechless, unable to do anything. Reality struck me as th
Chapter 89 ANNIKA The last place I wanted to be was a prison cell, the worst kind. I heard from Mabel, because she heard from her husband that Isaiah and Jerald had pulled some strings to make sure Jake ended up in a horrible cell where he was going to be sexually molested by guys and they would make sure he begged for death and make sure he stayed alive. I thought Mabel was overreacting but now that I am standing outside the prison’s gate, I can already smell the horrifying things that happened in there. I know, this is not the place I should be. I should be at the police station or I should reach out to Jerald or something. The truth is, I thought about it. I don’t want to be that helpless girl who was tied to her bed and dealt with. I want to make my own move. But by the time I was back to my senses after my nervous breakdown, the messages were gone. Whoever I was dealing with was smart. The only person who ever tormented me like that was Jake and I know he is in prison but, we
Chapter 31 ANNIKA The driver was silent. Isaiah didn’t say a word after he opened the car for me to get in. Completely ignoring Fred even though Fred had greeted him more than twice. I wanted to reach for him and assure him nothing was going on between us, but he looked cold and distant, so scar
Chapter 30 ISAIAH What am I doing? What the hell am I doing with Annika in the toilet during a very important business event with my business partners and workers outside? A part of me kept reminding myself where I was but the other part of me, held Annika, pressing her against my very hard dick
Chapter 27ISAIAH Why is she acting this way? I have asked myself that question every hour for the last seven days. Annika has been cold and distant to the point that it scared me. She only came to me for business-related conversations and she leaves my office before I even get the chance to say
Chapter 27 ANNIKA “I have always wondered why he hated me, now it’s all making sense.” Fred muffled as he leaned into the table, hands over his face as he sighed. I bit my lower lip waiting for him to finish processing everything I had just said to him. But the longer it took for him to pull eve
