Chapter 13

Brandon’s POV

I’m currently sitting in the boardroom in a meeting with potential clients from Hong Kong, who could give my company billions of US dollars if I get this deal I’m dumping Stacy, I don’t want her anymore ever since I started f*****g Vanessa I don’t even f**k the accountant anymore because Stacy didn’t satisfy me, she didn’t like it rough didn’t want me to f**k her ass but with Vanessa, she p***y just keeps calling for me whenever I see her, she’s beautiful, witty, funny and knows what she want besides Stacy has been cheating on me and the she thinks I don’t know I saw a love bite on her neck she hid it with makeup but I saw it

If this deal pulls through my father won’t have s**t on me, no more arranged relationship, I should’ve proposed to Stacy by now but my guts couldn’t do it just thinking of Vanessa makes me hard f**k I should concentrate but whenever she mentions a guy’s name I just want to f**k her so hard and tell her she’s mine f**k we f**k each other good I can’t get enough of her

Vanessa’s POV

Gosh, I’m so tired I don’t even remember coming to my own bed this thing whatever it is I need to put a stop to it, now I’m here feeling sorry for myself yet I haven’t even pulled up a fight haha pathetic of me the ringing of my phone pulls me out of my thoughts… It Sherlock, to what do I owe the pleasure so early in the morning

“Go for me”, I answer

Sherlock: “Breakfast is on me, considering that it going for noon”

Vanessa: “Yeah yeah, whatever lunch it is, pick me up in 30”

Craig still hasn’t called me back, I take it he’s avoiding me because he knows what I want to ask, Son of a Diva I should just pull up on him and be like “wass happening” sneaky Craig, he grew some balls from my torture poor Lina, I hope she never finds out cause I’ll be caught between killing her boyfriend and comforting her for committing murder ah f**k it, it not my fight I’ll let it be as it is

Sherlock came by in 30 minute I had my hair open, I wore a red floral dress with sandals and my nude handbag basically I had no energy to even look good but I still did without trying we went to the West side of Hollywood, now this side I haven’t explored Brandon backtracked my mind a bit I ordered stake tender and mash potatoes and white wine, Sherlock ordered the same, I had seen a celebrity at his gym who currently has his own production and a hot series worldwide and I was a bit interested I did commercials back home, produced an award winning documentary and did some live tv, so I wouldn’t mind if I joined Hollywood who knew my friendship with Sherlock might be beneficial after all

I ended up giving Sherlock the link to my showreel, so he can see what I’ve done and he promised to take me out so he can properly introduce me to the owner of the show, I was so excited I didn’t think I wanted to work while I was touring but if my star sign is looking good then this is it

I ended up getting back at 5pm due to we spoke from 1 till 3 and he showed me around a bit and we had a bit of traffic and right now I’m walking through the door all I can hear is “I don’t understand why she’s still here, do you like her?” no doubt that me they talking about

Vanessa: “Beautiful people hellooo, am I missing something, what the tension in the air about?” I went straight to the fridge and poured some wine, “might as well go out, mingle a bit”, I said and walked to my room and there was more shouting after that. I was bored out of my mind in my room I went back to the kitchen I took the wine bottle out and sat down and poured more wine “I bet you could use one of these Stacy” I said irking her Brandon was quiet and cooking I didn’t leave the kitchen till dinner was served I knew I was suffocating them more like suffocating Stacy because she wanted to shout some more, my phone rang and it was Craig

Vanessa: “Not now playboy I’m in the middle of dinner it suffocating as it is don’t make it worse”

Craig: “You want me to come and get you”

Vanessa: “No need I’m moving out month end, I’ll call you after dinner” I heard Stacy sighing out loud I knew she was ecstatic that I’ll be leaving in 2 weeks

Later that night Brandon and Stacy went out, she looked really beautiful I can pretty much say she outdone herself, I wasn’t jealous of her no not at all, I pretty much liked her she showed me her true colours first day, she didn’t beat around the bush and show me her façade I admired that about her, so it safe to say I didn’t mind her hostility she was like an older annoying sibling.

They came back around midnight, I was busy with i********: more like stalking some yummy celebrities and my curiosity got the better of me so I hopped off the bed and left my shoes and tip toed to Brandon’s room the door wasn’t locked and he was f*****g her at the bathroom sink my heart was shattered I held my breath and just looked at him ravishing her I stood and watched for a minute or 2, I went back to my room and locked the door I cried, I cried so hard I knew they were sleeping together but to actually see them on the act that was brutal

…..

The following morning, I woke up at 8am and went to the house gym, I worked out till I couldn’t anymore I had a shower and wore sweatpants with Craig’s white t-shirt with my favorite Yeezy sneakers and braided my hair, I grabbed an apple to eat and called Antonio, he came within 15minute and I went to his house for lunch which ended to dinner and Antonio with one of his son’s Miguel drove me back home, Miguel is light skinned shorter than his dad but taller than me, cute smile, black hair and broad shoulders, brown eyes with a bad boy look, he spoke to me all the way it safe to say he liked me I gave them both a hug when they dropped me off I was going to see them again Saturday for brunch with the whole family and the neighbors.

That night I didn’t eat dinner I didn’t make eye contact with anybody I just greeted them and went to my room and locked the door, I avoided everyone the whole week till it was Saturday, Sherlock was also blowing off my phone every other night and we’d go for Ice cream and I’d sneak back into the house to avoid confrontation

So now I’m standing in front of the mirror waiting for Miguel to pick me up in 5 minute, I’m wearing boyfriend jeans with red Nike sneakers, white t-shirt with a leather jacket, no lipstick or make up I took my house keys, phone with my purse and descended down the stairs

Stacy: “Hey stranger”

Vanessa: “How you doing baby girl?” I answered her walking towards the door

Stacy: “You look clean, going on a date?”

Vanessa: “Well aren’t you always fishing, and yes I am going on a date” I smirked and closed the door and walked out to find Miguel waiting and leaning on his car

Miguel: “Hey there pretty little thing”

Vanessa: “Hey yourself let get out of here”

I don’t like going empty handed to someone’s gathering so we stopped at Beverly Hills I bought cake, with cold drink and some snacks, the Carlos sure know how to host a brunch the place was lively lot of food, drinks and people dancing I really enjoyed myself, Miguel was like a second skin didn’t leave my sight, he kept me company throughout we looked like a lovely couple, I laughed the whole afternoon my 2 favorite kids were there also with their parents, they were by my side as soon as they saw me

Miguel drove me back home, I got there at 8pm we talked a bit and we exchanged numbers we hugged goodbye and he kissed me on the cheek in my head I’m like “Oh boy! Please don’t”
