61 Three Spiteful Questions In A Row
Denise sprawled on Tom’s bed early the next morning feeling blissful and exhausted. She rubbed her blurry eyes and yawned as Tom walked into his bedroom with a tray of breakfast prepared by him.
“Good morning, beautiful!” Tom drop the tray gently beside her, bent down, and kissed her lips tenderly. “Hope I didn’t wear you out last night?” He winked at her nude body which was fully covered by the duvet.
“I beg to differ. Is the other way round.” She pulled Tom’s face closer to hers and started kissing him passionately.
“Denise, the food! It will spill on the bed!” Tom swiftly removed the tray of food from the bed and placed it beside the bed stool. With the food properly secured, he moved back to her and locked her up in a passionate kiss. The kissing led to heated lovemaking which took another thirty minutes.
“Oh, Denise, I love you!” Tom’s husky voice rapped in Denise’s ears as he covered her face with warm kisses.
“I love you too, Tom! But, we must set boundaries,” Denise kissed his lips again and sat up.
“What boundaries?” Tom looked askance at her. He suddenly wore a worried expression.
“This is the fourth time we are having sex and from the look of things, we are moving at a fast pace that I am not comfortable with.” She looked at Tom lovingly but her tone was firm. She quickly narrated her last terrible relationship to a bewildered Tom.
“Oh, baby, I’m so sorry about that. I wish I could lay my hands on that horrible ex of yours,” Tom’s expression darkened. “I would have taught him a very good lesson for hurting the love of my life.” Tom move closer to her and kissed her on the forehead. “I am never going to be him. I would rather take a bullet to my head than hurt you.” He gazed tenderly into her eyes. But if you must insist on some conditions, then to prove my love to you, I’m willing to follow it all the way.
.....
“Oh, Tom!” Denise’s eyes shimmered with tears. “You are the best gift any girl could hope for. And I truly love you for it.” She kissed him on the lips.
“My condition is very simple. Do not propose to me until five months. We would regularly indulge in what lovers do because I won’t take my hands off you for one second.” She stroked his chin softly. “I want to get to know you better for these five months and after that, if you still want me, we could take the next step.”
“I’ll be insane not to ever want you.” He played with her hair. “I’ve also been unlucky with ladies. I would never think of giving you up to any person. Your conditions are accepted as long as you never share this...” He removed the duvet covering her naked body and started stroking her erogenous zones. “Don’t ever share this with anyone except me.” He climbed on her a second time and they made love.
After a quick breakfast and showering, Denise left Tom’s house for work.

Back at the Robinsons’ mansion, Chloe sat in her father’s home office with Frost, Kyle, Silvia, her father, and a lawyer.
She had arranged an urgent meeting that morning to plan the next action to take. Silvia had relayed Frost’s ingenious idea to an overly excited Chloe. While Chloe on the other hand welcomed the idea excitedly.
She happily signed the necessary documentation which gave her a huge stakeholder share value of forty percent in F& K fashion home. With this new proposal Kyle and Frost each had thirty percent shareholder value. They didn’t mind this arrangement as the Robinsons were willing to pump huge amounts of money into rebranding and refurbishing the F&K fashion home.
With this leveled battleground, the game was on between ARILPORTER BOSS and F&K fashion brands.
For some unknown reasons, Chloe was enthusiastic to resume work at the F&K fashion home. She was eager to face Ariella with her claws. She also intended to gate crash Ariella’s grand opening, with plans of disrupting the event with chaotic rumors. She had already planned with some highly connected reporters to accuse Ariella of fraud and stealing another brand’s idea.
“Let’s get this show on the road, shall we?” Chloe happily dismissed the meeting to get her scheming initiated. She excitedly thanked her dad for giving her the upper hand in acquiring the majority shares in the F&K fashion home; which invariably gave her the title of CEO.
Chloe allowed Frost and Kyle to keep their brand name. However, she wanted to make sure that her position was felt by every worker in the company. Hence, she instructed Frost to setup a meeting with every worker in the company, as she planned to address them all as the new CEO.
With every plan working perfectly, Chloe drove excitedly to the F&K fashion home.

It was a special and busy day in ARILPORTER BOSS fashion brand mini complex. Every worker was professionally dressed and at their best conduct.
Thanks to Leon’s influence, the ARILPORTER BOSS fashion brand grand opening had being televised true different news stations and social media. Even handbills were distributed by some of the planning committees headed by Denise. Also, Leon ensured that every security details were on alert, for any troublesome miscreant. He strictly instructed his men of the underworld to blend in with the show and fish out anyone who tried to play games with the day’s event.
The outline of activities for the day includes; a ribbon-cutting ceremony, a tour around the fashion house, a runway show, discounted purchases and free giveaways, an appreciation speech by the CEO, an interview section, and a glamorous dinner party for guests.
The entrance to the ARILPORTER BOSS fashion brand house was elegantly decorated with red and golden balloons, with a red ribbon crossing the main door. Guests arrived in their numbers and they were given a red carpet welcome.
News journalists, bloggers, paparazzi, fashion brand owners and editors from other brands, new clients, business moguls, celebrities, and a host of others stood by the entrance, waiting patiently for the ribbon-cutting ceremony to kick off.
Ariella and her husband walked hand in hand toward the entrance. They looked like a beautifully sculptured couple in their magnificent attire.
Ariella was accoutred in a boss lady deep V-neck white blazer dress, embellished with golden buttons. A pair of nude stiletto heels complimented her daring look. Her slightly revealing cleavage was hypnotic and on several occasions, Leon had to restrain himself from devouring her in public.
Leon, whose elegant dressing complemented that of his wife, was appareled in a slim-fitted white blazer with black pants and a pair of customized black suede tassel loafers. He wore dark round shades and a golden Rolex wristwatch. His hair was neatly cut and styled, giving him the demeanor of a superstar male model fashion icon.
After a welcome speech by the CEO, Leon was given the honor to cut the ribbon and the event of the day kicked off smoothly.
The second floor of the building was prepped for the fashion show. The spacious hall was tastefully decorated, and its glamorous design perfectly fitted the theme of the day, which was, ‘Aril Tiara For The Oscars’. The evocative backdrop displayed beautifully-designed apparel for different occasions. And the beautifully illuminated runway stage captured the amazing designs worn by models. The audience sections were dimly lit and well-spaced. Also, a mix of electronic and upbeat background music made the atmosphere in the room electrifying.
During the fashion runway show, Ariella’s unique, and exquisite new designs and fashion line was displayed by some internationally hired models, contracted through Leon. The models walked down the runway to the excitement and thrill of the audience.
When Ariella came up the stage, smiling and waving, with the highlights of her most elegant work being displayed by the models walking behind her, the crowd went high with excitement.
Leon’s smiles were hypnotic as he watched his wife walk down the stage. He was so proud of her as he cheered with the rest of the guests.
When the fashion runway show had been smoothly completed, it was now time for the interview session.
All guests and journalists were led to another spacious room for the interview session. When they were comfortably seated and Ariella and her team had mounted the podium, the interview kicked off almost immediately.
Some itchy news journalists who had been paid heavily to disrupt the day’s events couldn’t wait for the interview session to begin; as they were seen raising their hands with lots of burning questions directed to the CEO.
Earlier Leon’s men had already diffused a troublesome situation. Chloe, Frost, Kyle, Silvia, and some uninvited staff from F&K fashion home, – who pretended to be happy neighbors and supporters of Ella’s brand, – were thrown out like street urchins, when they came uninvited. The security detail was so tight and strict that it frustrated Chloe’s intention to gatecrash the event. Feeling disappointed and unable to witness the success of her evil scheme, she was forced back to her new office. All she could do was watch the live television program happening a few meters away from her in disappointment.
“Mrs. Ariella Treshvire, is it true that you were once a disgraced and rejected staff of F& K fashion home? It was gathered that your ideas were stolen from them.” A paid journalist threw the first spiteful question.
“Did you and your friend by the name Denise Walter, publicly beat up an international supermodel by the name of Chloe Robinson?” Another paid journalist threw the second question.
“Also, we gathered credible sources that you rejected your fiance, by the name of Richard Stone, against your family’s choice to be married to the billionaire CEO of Treshvire fashion for his wealth.” The third journalist’s eyes glinted with mischief as he threw the third alarming question.
