99 Success Well Deserved
Silvia and her mum, Sophie Kane couldn’t stop the tears from flowing from their eyes. They stared at Kyle’s vegetable state in hopelessness. Their shattered heart consoled one another as they prayed silently for him to wake up from his temporal coma.
Earlier that day, Sophie arrived at the HPS hospital when she got an emergency call from her daughter. She couldn’t believe her eyes and ears when she was informed that Kyle was involved in an accident.
“Where? How? When?” These were the three consecutive questions Sophie bombarded her daughter with.
Sophie had always praised Kyle to be one of the most careful, professional, and meticulous drivers in Amzone city. She didn’t want to believe what Silvia was saying. She tried to reach out to Kyle, but his mobile number wasn’t connecting. She even threatened Silvia to stop the expensive prank until her ears picked up a familiar sound of wailing ambulance sirens. That was when the bitter truth dawned on her. Silvia might be serious about Kyle.
When Sophie finally arrived at the hospital to confirm her fears, the sight she met made her heart shriek in pain and devastation. She couldn’t even recognize her brother due to the swollen and bandaged head and legs. As if the horrible sight wasn’t enough, Silvia told her what the doctor said. Her brother might never walk again.
“Why is all this happening to us?” Silvia cried in her mum’s hands. “Who did we offend? It was confirmed that a car deliberately ran into him. Who could have wanted to harm him this badly?”
“Shh! Stop crying, my love!” Sophie gently soothed her. “The police would soon dig out the evil culprit. Then we would watch them burn in hell. Moreover, your uncle is a very strong man. He will survive this!”
As Silvia was still weeping in her mum’s arms, her ears caught a familiar sound from the television. She quickly sat up and wiped her tears with a handkerchief. She blew her nose severally to clear her airway until she felt relieved. Then she stood up and walked closer to the television.
“Isn’t that Frost on television?” Sophie inquired surprisingly.
.....
“Yes, It’s Frost!” Silvia reaffirmed. “Today is supposed to be my company’s court opening process. Mum, can you please increase the volume of the television? I can’t hear what he is saying.”
“Okay, dear.” Sophie picked up the television remote that was close by and increased its volume slightly, in other not to disturb the peace in Kyle’s private ward.
Silvia listened in horror as Frost and Jane gave their confession yet again. ‘Why were they given the audience to confess in the courthouse? Where the hell is Chloe and why was she allowing this? Wasn’t this supposed to be a court battle opening process? What the hell is going on in that courtroom?’ A thousand questions clamored for attention in her thoughts.
As Silvia’s brain kept searching for befitting answers to her thousands of nerve-racking questions, she heard Chloe being called up to the witness stand.
“Does this mean your company is guilty of the theft crime?” Sophie asked in a concerned tone.
“I don’t know, mum,” Silvia said in a stressed tone. Her heart was drumming erratically as though a deadly earthquake was about to hit the HPS hospital. She held her breath as she impatiently waited for Chloe’s first statement.
“What? I’m finished!” Silvia impulsively shouted and collapsed on the bare floor, when Chloe made her first statement.
—————-
Leon and Ella walked hand in hand into a five-star wine and dine, in Bronx city.
Ella was donned in a simple but sophisticated A-line spaghetti strap navy blue dress, paired with a matching stiletto heels. Her hair was styled sideway and beautifully let down, giving a distinctive view of a diamond dangle earring.
Leon complimented Ella’s dress by wearing a navy blue elegantly tailored suit, giving him the demeanor of a supermodel.
When they got to their specially reserved table; which was a magical sight on the rooftop of the building, Leon gently pulled out an armless chair for Ella to sit down. Then he took his seat opposite her.
“Leon, this is a breathtaking view!” Ella beamed as she admired the beautiful scenery before her.
The heavenly ambiance and the breathtaking view of the city skyline at night were hypnotic.
The reserved table for two was luxuriously decorated with shimmering dim orange light that hung from crystal-like dancing bulbs. A heart-shaped candle stand stood magnificently at the center of the table. The candle stand held three sweet-smelling candle sticks with flickering light, which gave off an enchanting vibe, as it illuminated the beautiful smiling faces of the two lovebirds.
Two elongated slender stem with bubble bowl glasses of wine stood distinctively on either side of the table and an array of mouth-watering cuisine gave the table a touch of paradise dinner for two.
In the background, softly playing jazz music harmonized with the romantic atmosphere.
“Only the best for my love!” Leon’s bewitching smile was contagious. He softly touched Ella’s right hand which was resting on the table and stared into her glittery eyes; which sparkled with a thousand stars. “Congratulation my love, for your double success. You deserve all the happiness in this world.”
“Aww...” Ella’s jade-green eyes shimmered like an orchard at the beginning of autumn, as the orange candlelight illuminated it.
“I love you so much!” A glistening tear fell from her glimmering eyes as she gently squeezed Leon’s hand.
Leon picked up his glass of wine and raised it slightly. “A toast to my beautiful and talented wife for a success well deserved. Greater heights!”
“Thank you, my love.”
Ella’s face flushed red from excessive smiling as she raised her glass of wine and clinked it with Leon’s.
As they ate, they chatted happily about their fun and drama-filled day.
“I have a special gift for you,” Leon said while taking a sip of his wine.
“Really!” Ella’s eyes widened with excitement.
“Yes! It’s back at the hotel room.”
“Then let’s hurry up and leave here, I can’t wait!” Ella’s euphoria knew no bounds. Leon was suffocating her with so much happiness, that she didn’t know how to manage.
“Sure! Although, I’m looking forward to giving you the most relaxing body massage you could ever crave for.” Leon winked at her.
“Hmm!” Ella chuckled. “I’m beginning to suspect your motives.”
“My motives are genuine. I just want to please my wife!” He smiled seductively.
Ella felt a tingling sensation between her thighs at Leon’s last statement. She stiffened her body and unconsciously bit down her lower lips to stifle her needs.
However, her behavior didn’t go unnoticed by Leon. He suddenly felt a strong desire to cuddle her. Without giving it much thought, he stood up and walked towards her.
Ella stared at him with a questioning look. “Are we done here?” She inquired innocently as Leon pulled her to her feet.
“No, we are not.” Leon’s charming voice was more like a whisper. “I just want to have you in my arms at the moment.” he pulled Ella tenderly into his arms and began to move to the rhythm of the soft background music.
Ella felt peaceful and relaxed in Leon’s arms. She breathed in his masculine citrus woody cologne, which filled her entire system with an unquenchable desire to be engulfed by him. It felt as though her body was melting in his as he tightened his grip around her. She unintentionally let out a soft moan as Leon’s warm breath fanned the side of her neck.
“My love, you are driving me crazy!” Leon whispered again into her ears, causing her to shudder with excitement. He wished they were already back at their hotel room so that he could take his time and explore every inch of her alluring body. He softly kissed the side of her neck, causing her to tremble again. He felt her grip tighten around him and he suddenly felt bad for igniting her fire and not being able to quench it due to their current location.
“Leon, let’s leave here! I am on the verge of losing my senses.” Ella spoke up as she released her hold on him.
“Just a little more! Leon pulled her back into his and hugged her tightly. Then he released his hold on her, and passionately kissed her lips.
After their romantic dinner outing, Leon led Ella back to the limo, where the chauffeur was on standby duty.
“Nice to have you back, Mr. and Mrs. Treshvire,” the chauffeur bowed politely and opened the passenger door for the couple to enter. He shut the door smartly when Leon and Ella were comfortably seated. Then he will turn back to the driver’s seat and drove off.
“Thanks for the lovely dinner.” Ella leaned on Leon’s shoulder and place her hand gently on his thigh.
“You’re welcome, my love.” Leon stroked her hair gently and kissed it. “Ella...” Leon’s words trailed off as Ella’s touring hand was now softly massaging his groins, causing his little monster to suddenly awaken. He quickly caught her hand, raised it to his lips, and planted a passionate kiss on it.
As if she had been dying to be kissed, Ella pulled her hand freely from Leon and locked his lips with hers.
Hearts erratically beating, minds totally blown away, and needs at its peak, Leon kissed Ella hungrily like his life depended on it. Finally feeling breathless, they both parted lips momentarily. When he looked into Ella’s seductively sparkling eyes, he instantly knew that she was just getting warmed up.
Ella licked her lips lustfully and pulled Leon closer by the collar. “Don’t you ever stop!” She what about to go in for a second kiss when the car finally stopped.
“F**k!” Leon cursed. “Don’t tell me that we are here already!”
The fifteen minutes drive to the hotel felt like one minute to Leon. He quickly straightened out his clothes and helped Ella to do the same before they both alighted the limo.
Leon led Ella in his arms like a gentleman into one of Bronx city’s five-star luxurious hotels called the Ochen Max. They both entered the elevator and Leon punched in the last floor, which led to the penthouse suite.
Immediately the elevator started ascending, Leon lifted Ella and pinned her back to the elevator wall. While Ella in turn wrapped her legs around his waist like the tentacle of tentacles of an octopus.
He locked her lips in another passionately hungry kiss while his hand gently slid under her gown.
