🥀Episode 10🥀

💞ANDRE💞

“I can’t believe Reyna or her dad would stoop so low as to force you to marry her.” Jordan remarked after I relayed everything to him.

“I know right. I’m so f*cking confused. I have no idea what to do.”

“I have no idea what to tell you either. I mean Goldwyn Enterprises is one of the biggest companies in the world. If you refuse, you’ll be losing a lot of money but if you agree, you’ll be selling yourself to Reyna and her dad… Damn! I knew Reyna was crazy but this is totally psychotic.”

“Tell me about it.” I replied downing another glass of the vodka in my hand.

“So…tell me about your fianceé. Who is she?”

“Uhm she’s Cleona Reynolds.”

“I know that. Just tell me about her because you can’t imagine how surprised I was when I heard the news about you getting engaged. Are you serious about her or is she another conquest-to-be?”

I thought about telling Jordan about the bet. He was my best friend after all..but I decided against it.

“Nah. It’s serious this time.”

“Oh really? You’re telling me that you’ve finally found love?”

“Mm-hmm. I guess so.” I replied nodding my head.

“Wow! I always knew the day would come. I just didn’t expect it to be so soon… So when are you guys getting married? I’m going to be your best man right?”

“Yeah yeah. For sure.. We haven’t really set a date though. We’re focusing on building her hotel though.”

“Oh right. She’s a hotelier.”

“Mm-hmm. Right.”

“Oh well, congratulations bro. If you’ll excuse me though. I’m about to go work my magic.” He replied before downing down his drink and walking over to a petite strawberry blonde a few chairs away from us.

I smirked as I stared at him. Jordan and I were no different in that aspect. We were both chronic players.

I returned my attention back to my drink until I saw someone slide into the chair beside me. She was a pretty redhead and even though I tried to resist the urge, I found myself turning to talk to her and from there, well you know how it goes…. 😋😋

💙CLEONA💙

I woke up with a clear head and a refreshed body. Yesterday had been pretty hectic but I was more than ready to take on anything the world might throw at me today.

I was however not ready for the sight that awaited me down the stairs in the living room. Andre and an unknown redhead lay on the floor sleeping in each other arms, their clothes sprawled around them with several bottles of alcohol.

It looked as though they had a party last night. Both of them were naked so the first thing I did was use Andre’s jacket to cover him up. It was a wonder I didn’t puke or faint. The sight in front of me was simply 🤮🤮🤮

I tried my best to clean up the sitting room as best as I could. The only thing left to do was wake them up.

“Andre! Andre! Wake up!!!” I yelled but to no avail. The lady wasn’t too responsive either so I settled for another option.

I grabbed a bucket and filled it with ice cubes from the freezer which I then proceeded to dump on them.

Almost immediately, they jerked awake screaming.

“What..what happened? Cleo!? What the heck was that for?” Andre yelled glaring at me.

“That was for waking you up Mister. Couldn’t you and your friends have taken your business upstairs… Oh God!” I muttered looking away when he stood up naked.

“What are you… Oh! I would never have pegged you for the shy one, Miss Reynolds.” I could hear the smirk in his voice.

“Andre, cover up!”

“Why?”

“Andre, cover up or I swear I’ll cut your balls off.”

“You’d have to look at me first… Come on Cleo. Just one glance.”

“Gross Andre. I’ve already seen enough.”

“Come on. Just one more glance.”

“Oh really!”

I ran towards the kitchen and grabbed a knife 🔪.

“Cleo! What are you doing with the knife?”

“I’m going to do what you asked. I’ll look at you right now and cut your ball off.”

“I wasn’t expecting you to act on it.”

“Well I’m going to if you don’t get dressed. Same goes for you too, Miss Redhead.”

I heard some ruffling before Andre finally spoke up. I looked and saw the redhead fully dressed while Andre was in his boxers only. His chest was bare and it gave me the opportunity to admire his physique.

“Cleo! What are you staring at?” I heard Andre’s voice all of a sudden, interrupting my thoughts.

“Oh right!.. You, Redhead, out! Andre, get upstairs.”

I watched as the redhead grabbed her purse and headed out only to stop halfway, turn around and give Andre a passionate kiss on the lips and a ‘call me’ sign when they pulled apart before she finally left.

“Are you done now?” I asked sarcastically when Andre kept staring at the door after she left.

“I am and by the way, there’s nothing for you to be jealous about.”

“Jealous? You wish!” I scoffed.

He smirked and walked towards me. He stopped several feet away from me and asked “You sure you’re not jealous Miss Reynolds?”

“Yeah I am.”

He chuckled, leaned in and whispered into my ears. “Are you sure because you just licked your lips and I’m sure that’s your tell.”

I froze. Kyla always told me that I like my lips when I’m lying….

“You don’t know what you’re saying Andre.” I replied, brushing the thought away.

“Trust me, I do.” He whispered again before pulling away and heading upstairs.

“I’m not jealous…am I?” I asked myself still trying to make sense of whatever just happened…..

🥀Episode 11🥀

💞ANDRE💞

“Andre! Andre!” Cleo yelled my name for the umpteenth time that day interrupting my chain of thoughts.

“Argh! Quiet down Cleo! You’re giving me a migraine here.” I replied, placing my palm on my forehead.

“Like I care.” She replied rolling her eyes. “What are you thinking about? I’ve been calling you for a while now? I need you focused so we can get this done on time.”

I sighed, still rubbing my forehead, wondering whether or not to tell her about the deal.

“Hello? Earth to Andre!” Cleo yelled again, snapping her finger in my face.

“I’m sorry… It’s just I really have a lot on my mind. Excuse me, will you?” I said, heading to the bathroom.

••••

💙CLEONA💙

That was weird. In fact, that’s all Andre’s been since we got to his office. Just plain weird. He’s been quiet for one which is so unlike him and he’s also been zoning off… Something’s up and I need to find out what.

“Um Miss, what do you think about this drawing?” The architect asked holding up a sheet.

“Uh yeah. It’s okay… Gimme a sec, I’ll be right back.”

“Sure ma’am.”

I stood up and walked out of Andre’s office. I stood in the lobby and looked around, wondering where he could be. My best bet was the toilet so that was where I headed.

I was standing outside the female bathroom when I began to hear some sounds coming from inside. Curious, I walked in and and began to trace the sounds to the origin.

It was coming from a stall and the closer I got, the clearer the sounds got. They were actually moans. I rolled my eyes thinking it was two employees having a quickie. I was on my way out when I suddenly heard a moan that sounded like “Andre”.

Realizing this, I immediately grew angry. How could Andre have ditched me to hook up with someone in the female’s bathroom?

The thought made me angrier than I ever thought possible…

I angrily pulled open the door yelling “How dare you Andre!? How could you have left me to have s*x in the bathroom? You know I actually felt sorry for you..

Thought you were passing through some midlife crisis or something. I should have known you were going to do something like this. I…. Oh!” I exclaimed as my eyes slowly adjusted to the sight in the bathroom and I slowly came to realize that it wasn’t Andre in the stall to begin with.

I immediately averted my eyes, my cheeks already pink from the sight of a blonde bent over with a brown haired guy’s d*ck in her a*s.

“Oh my gosh! I’m so sorry… Uh..carry on I guess.” I muttered quickly closing the door behind me panting, shivering as I heard them resume…. The things people do at times.

I rushed out of the bathroom, panting heavily, my mind still reeling from what I saw. I managed to calm myself and decided to walk back to the office when I noticed the door of the male bathroom ajar.

There were no sounds apart from that of the water running. I slowly leaned in to peek and see if someone was in.

“What are you doing?” I heard behind me all of a sudden causing me to shriek in fear as I whirled around to find Andre staring at me quizzically.

“Sh*t! Don’t do that again. You scared me.”

“Sorry… I just wanted to know why you were snooping around.”

“I wasn’t… I wasn’t snooping around. I was just…you know… I uh heard the water running and I…wanted to see if anyone was there…”

“So you weren’t looking for me?” He asked.

“What do you mean?.. No, of course..not!”

“You do realize you’ve licked your lips thrice just now… So you were looking for me? How sweet!” He said smugly.

I rolled my eyes at him.

“Yeah right. So what if I was? I only did that because of the project… Nothing else!”

“That’s a lie and you know it… I heard your outburst in the female bathroom. You said you were sorry for me.”

“So what if I said that? Argh! Just leave me alone Andre.” I yelled glaring at him.

“I’m not holding you now, am I?” He said smugly, tucking his hand in his pocket.

“Whatever! It’s not like I care.” I murmured, walking away.

“Okay. Okay. Don’t leave yet… I was only kidding.” He grabbed my wrist and pulled me back to him.

“Look I’m sorry I haven’t been paying attention today. I just really have a lot on mind…”

“What have you been thinking about?”

He sighed.

“Reyna wants me to get married to her.”

“Really? I thought she’d have given up by now… What’s there to think about? You don’t love, do you?” I questioned.

“No no. Of course not… It’s just…her dad is one of my most valuable clients and he’s threatening to withdraw if I don’t marry Reyna.”

“Oh! So basically, he’s asking you to sell yourself to him… Do people still do that?”

“Obviously Reyna’s dad does. Now I have no idea what to do… If I decide to marry her, we can no longer fake anything. It’ll be over.”

“Do you want to marry her?”

“I don’t but it doesn’t feel like I have any choice here.” He sighed, letting go of my wrist.

I looked at him and saw how troubled he was. Reyna’s a real bitch. I can’t let him get married to her… Don’t get me wrong though. I have no feelings whatsoever for Andre but I will help him though and I know the perfect way to do so.

And so, with a smile on my face, I placed a hand on his shoulder and said with a smile “I have a plan”……………………

🥀Episode 12🥀

💞ANDRE💞

📱 Hey Reyna.

📲 Hey Andre. Why could you possibly be calling me?… I could hear the smirk in her voice.

📱 Oh cut the crap Rey. You know very well why I’m calling you… I mean, uh how are you doing today?

📲 I’m doing great. What’s the purpose of this call Andre? I’m kinda busy now.

📱 Well I just wanted to say I’m sorry for breaking up with you before and for talking to you the way I did in the restaurant. I’ve already ended things with Cleo and I’ll be very happy if you have dinner with me today…

📲 Gimme a sec to check my schedule…

I rolled my eyes, knowing fully well she was only doing that to seem like she had no idea what her dad had done…plus Reyna didn’t even have a schedule 😒.

📲 Oh guess what?

📱 What?… I asked doing my best not to sound bored.

📲 You’re in luck. I have an opening by…let’s say 6pm.

📱 That’s perfect. Be at my house by then.

📲 Your house? But I thought you’d want to take me out or something…

I breathed in.

📱 Look Reyna, do you want this to work?

📲 I do.

📱 Then be at my damn house by 6. Goodbye…. I said with a note of finality as I hung up.

“You know, you could have been nicer about that.” Cleo remarked behind me with a smirk on her face.

I turned around and groaned.

“I know. I know. It’s just… Reyna just makes me soo mad! Makes me wonder how I ever managed to be around her.” I replied through gritted teeth.

“Well…I guess that’s why you should learn to examine a lady’s character before jumping in bed with her.” She said pointedly.

I smiled. “Whatever you see, kitten.”

The expression on her face suddenly changed and she appeared lost in thoughts.

“Cleo, you alright? Cleo!” I said snapping my fingers in her face.

“Oh sorry. I’m okay. I’m okay.”

“You sure?” I asked still examining her.

“Yeah yeah. It’s nothing. I’m okay… I’m serious Andre.”

“Okay okay. If you say so… About your plan, are you sure it’s going to work?”

She smirked and said “Trust me Andre, no good Cleo-plan ever fail…”

“Then what if this is a bad Cleo-plan?”

She chuckled and leaned in, whispering “That’s the thing. There are no bad Cleo-plans.”

Her lips were so close and if not that I didn’t want to end up losing, I would have reached over and claimed them.

Thankfully, Cleo pulled away before I had any chance of giving in to the temptation.

“Come on! Let’s get started. She’ll be here soon.”

I nodded and trailed behind her as she headed upstairs. I only hope she’s right and her plan does work.

***

“There ! You look perfect.” Cleo said smoothing my shirt.

“Perfect enough for you to kiss me?”

“Mmhm. Very funny Andre.”

Just then, the doorbell rang.

“Showtime I guess.” I muttered.

“Yup! You’re right. Remember though, don’t press her too much or else she’ll get suspicious.”

“I know. I know. You don’t need to worry Cleona. I’ve got this.”

“You better… I’ll be on my way now. Once you nail her, I’ll come out and tell her what happened.”

“Okay.”

“Go now.”

“I know. I know. Get in place, will you?”

She rolled her eyes at me before leaving the door. I sighed and went out of as well, groaning when Reyna rang the bed again.

I reached the door, exhaled again and opened it.

“Hey Reyyy…na!?” I exclaimed, unable to get over my shock at what she was wearing.

“Hey Andre… Aren’t you going to let me in?”

“Oh yeah…sure.” I replied, opening the door wide enough for her to enter.

I closed the door behind her and turned to find her staring at me with a seductive smile on her face.

“Um come right this way.” I said leading her towards the dining room where I’d prepared a special dinner for two.

“Aww Andre, it’s beautiful.”

“I knew you’d like it.” I managed to say as coolly as I could manage.

“Well I do.” She replied smiling. “Aren’t you forgetting something?” She asked, gesturing towards her seat.

“Yeah yeah. Sorry about that.” I replied smiling as I adjusted her chair for her.

She smiled and sat down.

“So…why’d you bring me here?” She asked staring at me.

I fought the urge to roll my eyes at her and instead I said “Let’s talk about later. Wine?”

“Of course.”

I nodded and poured some wine into two glasses, handing one to her.

She smiled before she tipped the glass towards her mouth.

I watched her do that before offering her some food. She nodded and I served her the meal I’d made.

“Wow Andre, this is delicious. I love it!”

“I knew you would.”

She smiled at me before taking another bite of the meal again.

“So…my question again. Why did you call me here?”

“Well your dad called me yesterday…”

“And?”

“He asked me to marry you or risk losing him as a client…”

“Well what does that have to do with anything?” She asked as though she didn’t know.

I fought the urge to roll my eyes again and continued “Well I’ve decided to do the former and marry you.”

“Really? Well my answer is ‘yes’.” She squealed.

“I hope you do realize what that means right?”

“Yeah. We’re getting married.”

“That and that if your dad hadn’t threatened me, this wouldn’t be happening.”

“Ugh! So my dad threatened to stop patronising your company if you didn’t get married to me? So what? Why do you keep revisiting the issue?”

“Because you do realize that your dad literally bribed me so I could get married to you?”

“Whatever! We’re getting married either way.” She said smiling like the fool she is.

“No you’re not!” I heard Cleo say behind me.

I smirked as I stared at Reyna’s surprised face.

••••

💙CLEONA💙

“You! What are you doing here? In fact, what the hell is going on?” Reyna asked, surprise etched on her face as she looked at me and then Andre.

“What’s going on is that you just got busted!” I said smugly.

“What are you talking about!?” Reyna shrieked.

“I’m talking about this!” I said withdrawing a tiny recorder from the vase I’d placed on the table.

“What’s that?”

“It’s a recording of you clearly stating that your dad, the mayor of New York tried t0 bribe Andre to marry you, his daughter.”

“Wh…what are you going to do with it?” Reyna asked fearfully.

“Well it’s up to you what we do with it. If you insist on getting married to Andre, this recording will be uploaded on the internet… I can already imagine the headlines that will result into, the scandals… Juicy juicy scandals.” I answered licking my lips.

“You BITCH! What are you planning to achieve with this?”

“How about you staying away from Andre? If you attempt to blackmail him again like you just did, this recording will be uploaded on the internet. You can be sure about that.”

“Argh! Whatever! I don’t care about him anyway.” Reyna yelled before stomping off, closing the door hard behind her.

As soon as we heard the door close, we burst into laughter.

“You know, you should be thanking me Mr. Simmons.” I said when we stopped laughing.

“I know. I know. Thank you Cleo…. Gosh! I’m so happy right now, I could kiss you.”

My expression changed at that point.

“Wait what?” I asked surprised.

“I can really kiss you right now.” He said again.

My jaw dropped and then I watched as he placed his lips on mine……….

OMG! What the heck just happened!? 😳😳😳

Did Andre really just lose the bet or did something else happen? 🤔
