Anita quickly takes her towel and darts out of her room, leaving Flora, Esther, and Favour inside. She chases after her mother, who has returned to her room, and ties her white towel along the corridor before storming into her mother's room."Mom!" Anita sees her mother taking off her brown gown and preparing to take a bath.Mrs. Tonia ignores Anita's screams as Anita walks up to meet her in the center of the beautiful milk-colored room."Mom, you cannot say that to Flora."Mrs. Tonia sighs and turns to face Anita."You can't understand this. If Flora marries before you, it will seem like your fault, and that's why you're still single.""I understand, Mom, but Stephen truly loves Flora. Besides, they haven't set a wedding date yet. It won't affect me, and I'm sure about that," Anita says, and her mother shakes her head."No, Anita. How can you be sure? When you don't even have any men asking you out or are in a relationship with you."Anita swallows and finally responds, "Mom, I do ha
"Hello," Anita says in a lower voice. She hears Alfred's husky voice greet her, "What's up baby, how're you doing?""I'm fine," she responds. She can hear the faint music playing in the background, making her wonder where Alfred is, as it's already getting late."And you don't care to ask about me, how I'm doing too?" he asks, and she smiles."Sorry about that. How's your day and work?" Anita inquired."Fine, fine, and yours?""Good," she responds."Okay. I just called to know how you're doing. I'm honestly missing you, and you know Liam placed a ban on me. The last time I arrived on Monday just to see your beautiful face, the security men didn't allow me to use the elevator.""For real?" Anita asks aloud."Yes, anyway, let's forget about Liam. I know he's behaving weird at times, but that can be solved. If I report him to his father, he will lift the ban, but I don't have the time. Can we see each other this weekend?" Alfred asks. Anita scratches her head as she has already made plan
Arriving at the Benson Group, Anita settles down in her transparent glass office and stares at Bambam, who also settles down and stares at her coldly.Anita smirks, making Bambam stare away. They look so corporate and beautiful in their new vests, and she loves it.Anita switches on her computer to start work focus and just then she sees the elevator door open, and the handsome CEO steps out with his personal bodyguard walking behind him and holding his briefcase.Liam dresses in a blue suit and black shoes, and Anita sees he isn't wearing the top given to them, while his bodyguard wore his usual black suit.Anita stares away from Liam, as she has chosen to believe their kiss was a mistake. She stands up and stares downward as he approaches her office. She hears the staff greet him, and as he nears her open glass office, he stares at her.Anita can also feel Liam's burning gaze on her.She raises her head up, meets his gaze, and greets him, "Good morning."Liam only stares at Anita no
Liam sits across the two best friends, staring at his secretary's face. She looks breathtakingly beautiful. Now he realizes she's even cuter in her casual outfits than the oversized gown he implemented.Liam remembered the previous time he saw Anita with her sister over the weekend. She looked hot. He likes her but he cannot confess his feelings to her.Liam shakes his head, eats his lunch quickly, and exits the cafe. He doesn't want to keep staring at them. As a lot of staff bought their lunch in takeaways and took it along with them, leaving the cafe.Done with his lunch, Liam stands up and sees Anita still conversing with Temisa. His fiancée has been staring at him since but he looks away, and his secretary never looks back at him once, even though she knew he was there.Liam exits the cafeteria and walks out. He speaks to Raymond Martins to confirm about Alfred's visit to the company."Did Alfred Martin visit the company since I placed a restriction ban on him?" Liam inquired from
Anita doesn't understand her boss. She stares at Liam's face and nods, "Okay, sir," and turns and exits his office.Liam keeps staring at Anita's slim, curvy waist; even her skirt didn't hide her shape and big buttocks. He slams his table hard, stands up in annoyance, as he has a lot to say to her.He wants to tell her the truth, but he couldn't say it. He feels sick and loses his concentration for the rest of the day.Still sitting on his office chair until closing, Liam finally switches off his computer and exits his office. He holds his briefcase and finally steps out.He has warned Tosin not to disturb him in the office until he's ready to leave for home. So, Tosin doesn't go to check on him and rather waits on the third floor with other guards until he's ready.Liam steps out and doesn't stare backwards at Anita's office. He walks out and exits the third floor, going back downstairs to the garage to exit the company building, as a lot of staff are leaving.Anita sees Liam leaving
"Hello, excuse me, may I ask about your boss?" Oyinda Matthew raises her voice at Anita.Anita bites her lower lip and stares back at her computer, as she realizes that the lady sitting across from her is a seductress."I just spoke to you that my boss isn't around," Anita says.Oyinda Matthew looks irritated, stands up, and walks out of Anita's office.Anita shakes her head as she watches Oyinda exit the third floor, walking into the elevator and out of her view.Just then her office line rings, and it's Mr. Taiye calling to find out about the last client he's waiting to see."I'm sorry, sir, but she left, insisting on meeting with Liam directly.""Oh! Okay," Mr. Taiye exclaims, understanding Anita."It's alright then," he ends the call and wraps up all he's doing in Liam's office. His son doesn't work much, and Mr. Taiye looks around the office for a while.He stands up, exits the office after ensuring everything is intact, then switches off the computer and walks out to Anita's off
Liam is in the family mansion, in his personal sitting room, while Cynthia is busy questioning him with a series of questions as to why he hadn't stepped out since the morning."Uncle, are you sick?" Cynthia asks as she stands in front of him, staring at his face, seemingly older than him, waiting for his answer."I'm fine, Cynthia. Leave me alone!" Liam scolds Cynthia away in a harsh tone, and she frowns, making him panic as he doesn't want any disturbance from her mother or his mother."What's wrong?" Liam asks Cynthia, and she looks away from him, walks to the couch to pick up her little baby doll, not wanting to speak to him again."Cynthia!" Liam calls her back, but she doesn't respond, and he knows she's stubborn.Cynthia avoids looking at Liam and walks to the exit door before he stands up and stretches."Fine, let's go out and buy ice cream," he says, and she finally turns to face him."Really?" Her face lights up with joy, and she runs back to meet him, holding his right hand
"No, father. I mean... There's no need for that," Liam responds and stares away, while Mr. Taiye smiles."I see you like your secretary, my son. Do you prefer her to Mr. John's daughter as your wife?" Liam stiffens and stares back at his father in shock. He stammers, "No, dad. I mean, why are you asking me this question? She's just my secretary, and I don't have anything to do with her.""Hmm..." Mr. Taiye hums and stands up."And you expect me to believe that, Liam. It's alright. If you say you don't like her, then I will have her transferred to the Blues Company. Mr. Tunji Martin spoke to me about the need for a new accounting manager, and Anita will fit into that position as a perfect business admin for them.""No, father, you cannot do that!" Liam's eyes slightly narrow, and Mr. Taiye laughs."What changes, Liam? Remember, Anita graduated with a first-class upper and she isn't supposed to be your mere secretary. Mr. Tunji Martin has spoken to me about the need to recruit new staff
