When Joana walked in and realized Sophia brought Matthew to be introduced to her Uncle, she felt spiteful towards Matthew.“ Hello Mr Matthew, it's nice seeing you here. I can see you’re having a great time” Joana's hatred grew for Matthew. He was wicked for snatching her best friend's girlfriend Matthew glanced closely at Joana not remembering where they met each other. “ Sorry, have I met you before? Your face looks familiar” “ Oh yes! You have Mr Matthew. At the highway, remember? You helped my cousin and her boyfriend, do you remember now?” Joana fumed. Adrenaline flowed through her bloodstream and she felt like punching everyone seated including Simon.“ Jaona, what are you doing here? What happened to your nose? Sophia asked trying to cut Joana off.“ Uncle Simon asked me to come and I'm glad I met this huge celebration. I can see you and Matthew are getting along with each other very well” Joana giggled.Simon buried his head in shame. If he knew Sophia and Matthew would be
The next day at Shawn’s house, Joana sat all by herself for breakfast. Shawn has been acting weirdly and coldly toward her since she was discharged from the hospital and she was amazed at his sudden change. They did not talk much yesterday before Joana visited her uncle.Talking about yesterday, that was the worst moment in her life. For the first time, She and her cousin Sophia exchanged words aggressively calling each other horrible names.“ Gosh! “ Joana poured more water into the glass and gulped it without being careful. The water passed wrongly in her throat and she coughed heavily to its effects.Shawn walked in immediately to see Joana coughing and he hurried to her.“ What is wrong with you Joan? Why are you coughing?” Shawn said, rubbing her back gently till she became calm.“ Thanks, Shawn! And thank you very much for snubbing me yesterday and making me look like some attention-seeker “ Joana frowned, not looking at Shawn.Shawn cuddled her from the back and chuckled. He m
Joana was stunned for the first time in her life. Shawn has never been headstrong over issues that concern Sophia. Sophia’s actions must have broken him down for this sudden change to have occurred.Opening the door, she ran after Shawn and followed him inside his room since he would not wait and talk to her.“ Shawn, come back here, I'm talking to you. You can't walk out on me like that “ “Oh please let me be Joan. I'm tired of searching for Sophia you can go search for her yourself” he muttered. “ When did you suddenly develop cold feet towards my cousin? Or are you cheating on her as well?” Joana said, pushing her hair backward in rage.“Cheating? Really? Oh c’mon Joana. You of all people know how much I have kept my commitment to Sophia and then what did she do?” Shawn's face became pale but he got himself busy by dressing his bed and the sadness disappeared. “ I understand you never did, but can you look for her and build the love you two have for each other again, please?“ Jo
Shawn returned home that afternoon with blood gushing out of his mouth. He also had a slight cut on his head from the punch he received from the men.Joana was watching a series on the TV when the doorbell rang bell chimedGetting to the door, she was shocked at who she saw.“ Shawn! “ Joana panicked as she saw Shawn drenched in his pool of blood. Shawn could not walk properly because of how much pain he was feeling in his body. “ Who did this to you, Shawn? Where did you go?” Joan was startled. She did not know what to do since Shawn could not even say a word to her. What would she do now? She wiped the blood rushing from Shawn’s body with his stained clothes freaking out.“ Shawn, you have a cut on your head. Let's get you to the hospital “ “ I don't want to go to the hospital, can't withstand the strong foul smell of hospitals” Shawn managed to speak while Joana was still wiping blood stains from his body Joana was mad. Shawn was being too stubborn. He refused to tell her wha
Joana hurried inside after exchanging contact with Anthonio. She couldn't hide her excitement so she dashed inside with the aura forgetting Shawn was injured and bleeding earlier. Getting inside, Joana couldn't find any traces of Shawn in the living room. It was then her senses were retrieved and she rushed to his room which was in proximity to hers and the living room.Shawn just had a bath. He has a clean towel loosely tied around his waist waiting patiently for Joana to bring the drugs but it seemed she was stuck with the man that brought her home.Wrapping his head around the fact that the man who brought Joana home looked so much like Antonio, his cousin who left Atlanta ten years ago made him think hard.“ Is that Anthonio? No, that’s not him. He can’t be back” Shawn muttered to himself as he stood by his wardrobe to get dressed but was interrupted by Joana.“Oops! Shawn—” Joana could not finish. She was enticed by Shawn’s flawless thick muscles and his broad shoulders. Shawn w
Sophia was over-excited about her new life. Her relationship with Mathew is all that she has ever wanted. She imagines being with Shawn and remaining poor forever. She giggled to herself as she took her lunch at the company’s private lounge.Tranquillity has been restored in her relationship since she broke up with Shawn and has stopped talking to Joana. “ I don't about you Joan, you can continue feeding from where I stopped” she, scornfully said and gave out loud laughter. She retrieved her phone from her expensive Hermes bag, and opened her IG account to make a live video herself with the hashtag “ Life is cool when you’re rich” In a snap, she got 8 million view reactions. “ What! She exclaimed. “ So huge, thank you my followers “ She infantizes while twisting her long hair that flung down her shoulders.Suddenly, she saw Joana’s comments and was stunned.“ Have fun girl”“ I love you “Sophia blinked twice after seeing Joana’s message a pang of emptiness overshadowed her. She
Sophia stood bewildered looking at Matthew who was pretending not to know what Harrols was saying.“ Matthew, what deal is he talking about? Did you secure control?” Sophia asks looking deep into Matthew’s eyes for the truth. Matthew pulled away from her and signed.“ No Sophia, it's nothing big, it's just a small deal. Are you done with work, let me take you home?”“ Umh, yes I think I'm done for the day. I want to spend the rest of today dying on your hands” Sophia winked seductively at Matthew, biting her lower lips.Mathew smiled halfway and said,” Why can't we eat each other here? Trust me, the taste here is sweeter” “ Oops! I like it hidden and spicy” Sophia said and they chuckled. “ Okay, so go prepare your bag, let's get going. I can't wait to see what you’ve got” Matthew laughed and tickled Sophia by her waist and she jerked.In a few minutes, Sophia got her bag and they proceeded to the car to drive out of the company. Some group of employees narrowed their eyes to Sophi
The water splashed on Matthew’s body as he stood in the shower. With two hands tightly clenched on the wall, he swatted the hard wall with his forehead and scream,” Shit, fuck you, Derrick!” Sophia was by the other end of the bathroom sobbing from the blow Matthew had given her earlier. Her long but scattered hair covered her face and she tucked them beside her ears exposing her engrossed nipples. She tried pulling herself up but felt a sharp pain in her spine. Lifting her eyes, she could see Matthew boiling in rage like he was going delusional. Since they'd been dating, Matthew had never laid a finger on her. She poked the little monster in him first by calling him a criminal without being cocksure of her words. She looked away from him and sighed. Matthew’s body sparkled after the long wash. He glanced at Sophia who was leaning by the wall in her nude with her head buried in her thigh and looking away unconcerned and took a clean towel to tie around his waist instead. Once he w
