Chapter 03
At the hospital, Kimberly saw that her mother was dying and there was nothing he could do about it. When she was being a nuisance and begging the doctor to treat her mother, she was thrown out of the emergency room with her mother locked inside.
Kim was crying bitterly when suddenly, the air went cold and deadly. Her heart picked up at a fast rate for a reason she didn’t know but that is the thing with Stone Maxwell. He is a man of aura, his looks send out messages without him talking and his presence is enough to make any man fall to his knees.
The sound of his shoe alerted her to raise her face, she could see her reflection in the strange man’s shoe.
She raised her misty eyes clouded with tears, unable to reason why the approaching figure stopped in front of her.
He ordered the guards to clear off the corridor and since they knew who he is, they left the area for him.
“Carry this filthy woman!” He ordered.
“Yes, Mr.Stone,” the guards said.
Hearing the name, Kim wiped her tears and fell to her knees “I’m so sorry Mr.Stone, it was a mistake” she said amidst tears.
Seeing Kimberly touch his expensive clothes, he scrunched his face. He surveyed her tiny frame and fragile arms— his glacier eyes looks on.
“ Mistake? Then you should pay for it” he said.
“I will accept whatever punishment you want to give me but please don’t take me away now, my mother is dying... I can’t leave her here” she pleaded.
He was confused, the woman in front of him is acting all pretentious and naive meanwhile he knew her to be tricky and greedy.
He had been on the lookout for her for years.
“Then you should watch her die! What happened to the pay those people gave you in return for sleeping with me? Or the one you exploited from the Maxwells?” He said.
“What? I promise it was a mistake, I didn’t work with anyone and I have never visited your mansion before” her voice wavered.
“I swear with my life Mr.Stone, please believe me,” she said.
“I know you very well Ashley! Changing your name won’t hide your ugly heart! How dare you come for me after the chaos you caused in Maxwell’s household?!” He challenged.
Now, Kim was tired of crying and explaining, she could feel strength departing from her already.
She passed out because of the stress.
— For the second time today, Kim found herself sleeping on a comfy bed. The streaks of light entering through the blinds woke her up.
She jumped on her feet and yanked the bedcover away from her body.
She was about to run when Stone’s voice stopped her.
“Running again filthy rat?” He said.
Kimberly became frozen, but slowly she turn around to see him sitting on the couch beside the bed with his long legs crossed over each other. The dazzling sunlight seems to outline his slender frame and his face holds elegance even with his cold aura.
“I have to go back to my mother please!” she pleaded with tears threatening to fall.
“I have paid for your mother’s operation and the hospital bills,” he said simply without sparing her a look.
Kimberly was shocked and confused. She committed a serious crime against him and he helped her this much?
She was hesitant to thank him but she did it anyways.
“At least you’re smart enough to know it isn’t for free,” he said then stood up from his seat.
Mischief glowed in his eyes as he strutted towards her.
He crouch to her level on the ground and grabbed her chin fiercely “I don’t know what your cover story is this time around but I will surely ruin it” he said.
The tears threatening to fall found their way freely down Kimberly’s cheeks.
He took the files on the table and gave them to her to sign.
“It’s a contract, sign that and I won’t get you arrested,” he said.
“A contract?” She repeated.
“Stay with me under this roof for 120 days in exchange for paying for your mother’s hospital bills,” he said.
Kimberly was starting to get scared, the condition for helping is considered small to what she was willing to do to repay him but then she could not understand all the strange things he’s been saying about knowing her. Did he perhaps mistake her to be someone else?
“I’m sorry Mr.Stone, I still need to look after my mother so I’m afraid I can’t live with you for 120 days please tell me how else I can repay you,” she said.
Annoyance took over his bottomless icy stares “You think you’re in a position to reject my offer?
“I have seen your type before, they knew of my sexual illness and tried to get on my bed to bear my child but they are rotting in hell already!” He said with a maniac smirk — I need to be sure you’re not pregnant and that is by being under my watch and doing everything I ask of you!” He said.
Kimberly was in a tight spot. She imagined how her mother would live without her and what this dangerous Billionaire would do to her. He’s rich enough to get rid of her and clear all her life history from the system without a trace.
She heaved a sigh and said tearfully “I will do anything you want but please take care of my mother” she said.
“You seem to forget things a lot, you’re in no position to make deals with me.... but I’ll do it,” he said.
Kimberly signed the contract and he collected it from her.
“Good! The most important part of the contract is just 3— Don’t you dare touch my kids, Don’t ever enter my room unless I call for you, and don’t expect anything good from me!” He said to her.
Kimberly replied with a head nod.
“Good now take off your clothes,” he said... TBC
Chapter 04Kimberly thought she heard it wrong but the deadly stare she saw informed her of the harsh truth.“You should go over the contract once I get you a copy,” he said.“Do I need to serve you?” She asked.“You don’t ask me questions! I own you from now on for the next 120 days” he said to her.Kimberly shuddered in fear as she slowly rises to her feet. She started with the first button, the second, and the third when Stone’s phone rang on the table.He picked up the call without breaking glances with her but then his facial expression changed and emotion crossed his eyes. That seems to be the first time Kimberly would see actual emotion on his poker face.He left in a hurry without saying a word to Kimberly.She followed him but stopped when she heard him talking to the head maid. “Treat her well and respect her like the lady of the house”The head maid and the rest of the maids answered in unison.She rushed to the window and watched him drive away from the parking lot.She w
Chapter 05The study was brightly lit.A man was sitting at the main desk. Beneath his white sleeve, he wore an exquisite watch that matched his manly demeanor.Lowering his head while reading his documents, he had defined facial features with a pronounced jawline.After he flipped through a page, he said— “Check to see if Kimberly is ready for her doctor’s appointment” he said to the butler.The butler bowed his head and said respectfully, "Yes Mr.Stone”But then, Kimberly came walking down the steps dressed in a proper and elegant dress. He ordered a full closet for her early this morning and all the dress fits.The butler bowed for the last time before leaving.“It should fit, it’s the same size after all,” he said.“Same size? Of... your girlfriend? Ex-lover?” She asked.Stone looked at her searchingly for a while, just her face and he looks so expressionless.Kim starts to pick her fingers feeling so nervous and scared. She could only react to emotions but this strange Billionair
Chapter 6Kimberly POV After another round of hot season in the bathroom, he left without a word, leaving me to sort my self out. Can he be anything called romantic? I thought seating weakly on the marble floor with my back pressed against the wall. Finally getting the strength to get up from where I was seating, I lay inside the hot bath which I had hurriedly prepare before seating comfortably on the floor earlier. I let out a weak quite sigh the moment the warmness of the water hit me. My bones and weak veins must have straighten out with how relief my whole body felt. Was really grateful it's warm enough before I dio myself into the bathtub. Even my weak limbs and arm were swimming in happiness due to the bath I made for myo. I can't say it nutritious but at least, I did a great job in making this with my weak state. Seating into the bathtub the more, I laid slowly in a sleeping position making sure each an every inch of my hair got soaked in it. I then gently raise my hand
Kimberly's POVI was even going to bend and pick up the drug she brought for me but what she said stopped me from bending low to pick it. Walking closer to her, I began to measure her from head to toe by her beauty and attire before looking straight to her eyes. "Did you just call me.a bi**h?" I asked wanting her to repeat her words more carefully this time around while she made her shoulder and head raise so high staring back at me with the facial expressions that screams I did what I did, you can't do a thing to that fact. That's true, I can't do anything to what she just called me but I can make her feel irritated rather than letting her off with the champion look on her face. " Am sure you secretly want to be in my shoes but I came in too fast to ruin your beautiful fantasy." I said into her ear before stepping backwards with a beautiful satisfied smile on my face then I walk away. She must be desperate to have the position I am, she should come get it if she wants not ha
Chapter 8 Stepping out of Kimberly's room, the head of maids couldn't help but thought of giving her death pills instead of the one she was made to give her. Who knows if she would have find her peace already rather than having to think of what she is going to face the next day. Pissed at the fact that she was made to use the drug before Kimberly makes her look less. She couldn't stand such maid of yesterday which she was the one who used her hand to nominate and picked to work in this house commanding her as well as making her run errands like she was the maid in the question. Only if she had not even appointed her to the care of inner part of the mansion. She could have given her just the garage or outside to feed the securities or better still not employ her at all. She was passionate about making her boss the father of her child this month and then get to be his wife but here it is, it has been ruined by the one she employed to aid her in working on the inner part of the man
Kimberly POV Waking up today, I woke up with body and joint pain making me wonder what had happened last night to her. All she could remember was sleeping after a restless state of mind. Her mind kept on wondering around thinking of what she could have done to reflect pain on her but she didn't find any. Moving over to the second side of the bed, she was engulf by warmness and deepen part of the bed which made her push her body deeper into the bed while wonder what could have make that particular part this warm. Placing her nose on the pillow, it has a strange saint different from hers but she is dangerously attracted to the scent. She didn't want to push her nose off the pillow neither did she want to investigate about the scent because it calms her high nerves the moment she place her nose against the pillow. It smell heavenly and nice obviously it must be a very expensive scent of a rich person taste, she concluded moaning into the pillow as she enjoys her hold against the
Maxwell POVStaying up all night yesterday was unbearable, my mind couldn't even focus on the main reason I had stayed online for. It was being disturbed by her images, scent even her soft skin texture wouldn't stay away from my mind. Especially the way she m**n out my name everyday. Today own was different from the rest because I have never seen her wet and stark naked before, it's either am the one to pull he clothes off or she is the one to pull them off with little help coming from me while I helped myself with my clothes. Doing away with protection today again, it was sloppy and juicy in there. These kept on rubbling in my head till I had no choice but to leave the document I was busy with for my bed thinking that would make me less restless but unfortunately it didn't, it only gave me more head ache to deal with. Rolling from side to side, I switch on my fan thinking if there's more coldness in my room, I might fall asleep. But it didn't work like that, getting up
Maxwell POV The first thing I did the moment I entered my room was finishing off those things I left untouched from yesterday. While working in them, it was like it's a new set of brain that I brought down from her room. I wouldn't lie, spending lat night in her arms really did a great job in my reasoning organ mostly making them stable and effective. I wasn't feeling restless like yesterday night neither was I frustrated. Infact it's a feeling that kept in yarning for more work to keep on coming, an sure I can handle them all. Getting down with them, I pack them up into my briefcase before seeking into my laptop for the works my personal assistant had sent iver fir me to cross check against the day work. Doing that as quick as possible, I ran through my mail box to check if I have any outstanding mail which am yet to attend to. Just like I had thought, I saw a particular one which has been sent a day before yesterday staring back at me with the look that's waiting for me to o
