Second Chance at love

Sounds of heart-racing body clapping emanate behind closed doors.

"Don't stop, keep trusting, go harder!!" A familiar voice quakes with a voice of ecstasy in pain

"If I go harder I might hurt you and the child"

"We can take it, baby, we are both though... I want you deep and strong" she whispers

In the silence of the night waves upon waves of a man and a woman sensual driven voice emanated behind closed doors, the atmosphere dripping thick with passion

Desmond... Desmond... I love you so much... I can't live my life without you".

"You complete me jade... I love you to the bits".

The ambiguous conversation between the hungry man and woman struck Amanda like a bolt of bolt lightning.

She was very sure the voices coming out of the lounge is that of her husband, Desmond and her sister Jade.

Amanda Brian raised her little hands to push the door of the lobby open but her hand stopped midair, she couldn't do it, Amanda was scared of seeing what those two were doing behind closed doors, she was scared, she has never been more scared in her life.

"My husband and sister can not do this to me, I am just in a dream yes, I am and I will be up soon," Amanda thought to herself.

Desmond, you know how much I love you... I can't live without you... But what about my sister? You are still married to her... If she gets to know what we have been up to we are dead for sure!

You don't have to worry about your dumb sister... She obeys all my command like a slave... All I have to do is give her the order and she follows without complaining.

I know that... Desmond but my sister is so in love with you... She has been in love with you for ten years now and I don't think she will sign those divorce papers

"I know... I know... All I have to do is hide the divorce agreement under the fashion show documents... She trusts me... She will sign the documents without checking it."

As Desmond's voice fall the hand holding the gift and cake she got for his birthday trembled slightly and they both fell to the ground.

"Dumb... Dumb he says I am dumb... Of course, I am dumb... I have been in love with him for ten whole years and this is what I get dumb girl Amanda mumbled to herself as she bit down her lips to stop her tears from running down

Amanda Brian works in her husbands, company ( home of good clothes) but she knows little about her husband's schedule all she knew is, her husband owns chains of businesses but she never cared to know. Amanda knew her sister jade knows a lot about her husband even more than she does. Amanda did not consider her a threat as they were best of friends from childhood.

After a hectic day trying to come up with the designs for Jade annual fashion show ordered by Desmond Brian, Amanda went home to celebrate her husband's birthday but she was told he was still at the office, Amanda called the office to make enquiries about her husband but was told he was in an important meeting.

Amanda decided to take the surprise birthday present to his office, to celebrate the auspicious day she got dolled up a little in other to look different today, satisfied with her looks she strode to the wardrobe to get matching clothes, after much decision, Amanda settled for a red short body hugged dress with a matching pair of red heels. As she happily made her way to his office. She never considered that the two people she considered family could do this to her.

Every single word uttered echoed into her ears, the more she heard the more she fought the urge to cry. Amanda kept her eyes wide open to stop her tears from rolling down her cheek as she kept singing to herself

" Do not cry Amanda those people do not deserve your tears"

Unable to listen to any more of their ramblings Amanda took to her heels out of the company not stopping to listen to anyone.

Immediately Amanda got out of the company she hailed a taxi.

" take me to the nearest bar... Real fast" Amanda commanded.

Shortly after Amanda got in the bar she ordered for the bars strongest shots, after her needs were attended to Amanda gulped it down one at a time not minding the taste because her heart was at turmoil. As she drank she let the tears she has been holding in, flow.

After a huge messy day, Charles lan for the first time in his life decided to go to a middle-class bar, not because he ran short of money, which is not possible considering the fact he is the richest in basin city but he just wanted to do that for a change.

The moment he walked in all eyes were glued on him, they all felt the powerful aura of the man in an instant, the atmosphere extremely unique and powerful just like a monarch Descended upon the world.

The man looked so handsome very tough with sharp edges. His body gave off this feeling of nobility with a pair of beautiful eyes. But he gave this feeling of coldness, ferocity and danger the scar at the side of his eyebrows made him look even more dangerous for that reason ladies at the bar were scared of running to him.

Charles lan swept his cold gaze on the people at the bar and his two beautiful pair of phoenix eyes caught sight of a beautiful floral petal birthmark of a lady not far from him.

The birthmark looks like a rose petal well engraved at the left side of her exquisite collarbone, it is beautiful but yet warm.

"... Same position... Same birthmark... Same colour... But how is that possible... Eighteen years... Since eighteen years... Nora is dead then who is she?" 

Charles lan muttered to himself
