"You can go fuck yourself Hudson!" Annette yelled as she glared at him "You're already doing that, Goldilocks." Hudson said with a huge grin on his face. ****** Hudson McKenney is ruthless and cold, he has no feelings and might end up getting poisoned by one of his many female mistresses, but Hudson doesn't care. All he wanted was to live his life to the fullest until he meets Annette Zachary. Annette Zachary is slightly naive but loves her sister to death, and she would do anything for her even if she has to tango with the devil. Will she be able to get out of the relationship unscathed?
View MoreThe drive to the office was smooth, but Annette found herself lost in thought, her mind swirling with questions and doubts. What awaited them at the office? What had prompted their sudden return? And most importantly, could she trust Hudson, despite everything that had transpired between them?As the car pulled up to a large office building, Annette took a deep breath, steeling herself for whatever lay ahead. Stepping out of the car, she was greeted by a man dressed in a black suit."Miss Zachary, welcome to Paris. I'm Mr. Samuel's assistant, and he is waiting for you in his office," the assistant said, gesturing for Annette to follow.Annette nodded, her heart pounding with anticipation as she made her way through the bustling corridors of the office. Finally reaching Samuel's door, she hesitated for a moment before knocking softly."Come in," Samuel's voice called from inside, and Annette pushed open the door, stepping into the familiar space.Samuel sat behind his desk, his express
Annette stood at the entrance of the private airfield, nervously shifting from one foot to the other as she watched the plane taxiing into position so they could get on board. Her fear of heights gnawed at her, making her heart race and her palms clammy. She glanced at Hudson, and she saw him talking to someone before his gaze moved to her. "Would it be dumb to tell him I'm scared of flying? I have always been scared, but that I was flying with someone I'm acquainted with is different." Annette taught to herself as she avoided Hudson's gaze, and at that moment he knew something was wrong, so he walked up to her. "Are you okay, Annette?" Hudson asked, having noticed her anxious expression.Annette nodded, but her trembling hands betrayed her. "Like I said at the carnival, I'm just... not a big fan of flying," she admitted, her voice barely above a whisper.Annette didn't expect what happened next as he reached for her hand, intertwining his fingers with hers. "It's going to be okay,
Annette's thoughts were consumed by yesterday, and Hudson came in and saved the day. Which made her wonder if he had truly changed. Just then her phone rang, interrupting her internal monologue. She glanced at the caller ID and saw it was Samuel, her close friend, if she could call him that and boss. Curiosity piqued, and she answered the call."Hey Samuel, what's up?" Annette greeted him cheerfully, wondering what could have happened for him to call her so soon"Hey Annette, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but we need you in Paris urgently to continue the project," Samuel said, his voice carrying a tone of apology.Annette's heart sank slightly at the news. She had been looking forward to some time off to recharge, but duty called. "I understand, Samuel. No worries. I can come back," she reassured him, pushing aside her disappointment."Oh, thank you, Annette. I really appreciate it," Samuel replied gratefully. "I know it's short notice, but we're in a bit of a bind here.""Don'
As the rollercoaster slowly came to a halt, Annette let out a relieved sigh, feeling the rush of adrenaline still coursing through her veins. She unclenched her fists, her knuckles white from gripping the safety bar throughout the wild ride.Cassie turned to her with a wide grin, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "How are you feeling, Annette?" she asked, her voice filled with amusement.Annette chuckled, her nerves settling now that the ride was over. "Much better now that we're off that crazy thing," she replied, a hint of laughter in her voice.Cassie's laughter bubbled up uncontrollably, and even Hudson, who had been relatively quiet during the ride, joined in with a chuckle. As they made their way out of the rollercoaster's exit, Cassie turned to Hudson and asked, "Where to next?" "It's your choice. What do you want to do next?" Hudson asked with a small smile on his face"Let's go to the food station," Cassie announced with glee as she stared up a Hudson "Lead the way," Hud
"Okay then," Cassie said as she hugged Jane as different thoughts ran through her head, and most of them included Hudson and his sudden change in behaviour. "Don't stress too much, just observe him, and if you think you can give him a second chance, it's up to you," Jane said as she ran a comforting hand down Annette's head. "Okay, I will do as you say, but I don't really think he can change in just a few days," Annette said. "If he has fallen for you, he will want to change for you," Jane said "It's that a book quote," Annette smiled as she stared at her friend "Nope, it's a quote by yours truly," Annette said as she pushed her friend on the hand playfully"Was the food any good?" Jane asked"Yeah, and we brought you something. It's in my bag," Annette said"I love you," Jane said as she kissed Annette on the cheek "You love food more," Annette said with a smile "That's true though." Jane said as she skipped to the kitchen to eat the food Annette and Cassie had brought back fo
Hudson chuckled, watching Jane's retreating figure. "Well, it looks like it's just the three of us for lunch.""I'm looking forward to it. Thank you for the invitation." Cassie said, grinning from ear to ear as her gaze moved between Hudson and "Yeah, it's nice to have a break from our usual routine."As they headed to the restaurant, Hudson asked, "So, any preferences for lunch?"Cassie shrugged. "I'm easy. Surprise us."Annette nodded in agreement. "Same here. As long as it's good, I'm happy."******As they came to a stop in front of a restaurant named Bernard's, Annette immediately recognised it as one of Jane's must go restaurants. The only reason why she hasn't gone already is because it's crazy expensive, so Annette knew Hudson was going all out so she could forgive him. She was angry, but she was grateful to him because he helped her sister out.He was the only reason why she was smiling right now, and she couldn't bring herself to hate him "We're here," Hudson said as he gu
"Who am I speaking to?" inquired Mr. Thompson over the phone."This is Mr. McKenney," replied Hudson, causing Mrs. Thompson's face to pale. Meanwhile, her daughter seemed disinterested."Mr. McKenney, what do I owe the pleasure of your call?" Mr. Thompson inquired."I'm calling regarding the deal you wanted to make with us," Hudson added."I've been waiting for your call. When should I draw up the contract and bring it over?" Mr. Thompson asked eagerly."No need for that," Hudson replied, prompting Mr. Thompson to question why."Is your company already working on the contract?" Mr. Thompson asked when Hudson chuckled softly."No, because there will be no contract, Mr. Thompson. We won't be working with you," Hudson declared, causing a moment of silence on the phone."Why? You seemed interested last time we talked," Mr. Thompson said, desperation creeping into his tone."I don't work with bullies," Hudson stated plainly."I don't understand," Mr. Thompson confessed."Why don't you ask
"Let's move this to my office while the other parents arrive." the principal said as she turned to the crowd frowning at them, "You all should get back to class!" With that said, the crowd dispersed, leaving the hall quiet once again. "Okay then, we will move this to your office, but don't think for one minute that this is going to go away. Now that they have me in their corner I will make sure to drag this issue as long as I can until Cassie here gets the justice she deserves. Except you want me to do what has been on my mind. You'll regret it so much." Hudson explained as an unease expression formed on the principal's face. "I understand, Mr. McKenney, and we will surely get to the bottom of this," The principal said as she guided the group to her office.Once inside the principal's office, the atmosphere remained tense as the principal motioned for everyone to take a seat. They all did as their gazes fell on the older lady who looked like she was about to pee herself."I apprecia
"I assure you we will do anything to make sure everything gets sorted out," the principal said, causing Amanda and Jane to scoff at her statement. "Please, drop the act you've been saying that since we told you the first time, so stop lying, Mrs, and really do something about it," Jane said as she glared at the principal. "Mr Annette causing a scene will not change anything, so let's move to my office," The principal said "No, you're saying they are causing a scene," Hudson said, "Mind my language, but you really don't give a shit about Cassie." "Mr?" The principal asked "Mr Hudson McKenney" Hudson as the principals face went pale. "You mean…" The principal asked"Yes I'm that Hudson McKenney, I'm shocked that you didn't recognise me right away." Hudson said as a smug smile formed on his face, "You see, these, are closed friends of mine and you've really pissed then off, automatically, that disqualifies this school." "How can we solve this? Mr McKenney," The principal said, he
