Twisted Feelings

" All of these wouldn't have happened if you were with me. I wouldn't have gone out to drink if you stayed with me and now my company wouldn't be at stake. It's not a must that you would love me back, just let me love you, please " Ricardo pleaded while hiding Gwen tight.

Gwenevere was aware that she was the cause of everything but seeing him looking this pathetic made her cry. She didn't want him to leave her embrace, so he stroked his hair gently until he became calm.

" Run along it's time to announce the result, " Gwen said to him as she pulled him out of her embrace. She used her palm to wipe his tears and she gave him an encouraging smile.

" Will you wait for me? I will take you home " Ricardo said as he planted a kiss on her forehead.

" Yes, I will wait for you " Gwen replied with a smile and Ricardo felt happy as he let go of her.

He opened the door and left, Gwen stood for a while and put on her disguise as she walked down the staircase she collided with someone.

" I'm sorry," She said and looked up, the face seemed familiar but Gwen couldn't remember where she had seen him.

But she remembered him sitting close to Ricardo, and that was when she realized that he was the first son of Lorenzo. Apart from today, she could swear that she has seen that face before.

" Watch carefully next time," Leo said and walked away.

Everyone returned to the conference hall and everywhere was quiet. Liam walked up to the stage with a grin, he smiled at everyone as he began his speech.

" Without wasting much of your time, I will call the result " He looked down at the tablet he was holding and looked up again.

" Leo Leronzo got a total vote of 12 and 8% of the company's shares while Ricardo got a total vote of 808 and 28% of the company's shares. Ricardo already has 70% of the company's share as his birthright, in summary, Ricardo remains the company's CEO " Liam declared.

Everyone was happy at his announcement except Leo and the few who voted for him.

" The most shocking news is that we never wanted to dismiss Ricardo. The board members held a meeting after the leaked pictures, we weren't happy but we wanted Ricardo to see people who would stand by him at all costs " Liam said.

" Leo made it clear to us that he wants the company so we decided to do this for him to know his actual place. I can't believe that Leo went around bribing almost all the company's shareholders, so disappointing " Everyone was shocked at this Revelation.

The press was taking pictures and videos of everything, and they were uploading it on social media. Social media became hot. Ricardo couldn't believe that his brother could plot against him.

" There were never any dismissal charges against Ricardo. He is the best leader that any company could ask of, even with the pressure mounted on him, he didn't go through the backdoor " Liam gave his last speech as he walked to his seat.

" Ricardo, please it's time for your speech, " One of the shareholders said beaming. Ricardo walked up to the stage with mixed emotions as he looked around.

" It's indeed a great test but there was no need for me to panic. I want to thank everyone for trusting me even with rumors going on social media. I don't have much to say " Ricardo cleared his throat and ruffled his hair.

" The only thing I have to say is that those who voted for Leo have been relieved of their duties, including the shareholders who gave him their shares. I can't keep you people around me because I'm scared that you might kill me " Ricardo said.

They began to applaud him because that was the right decision to take. Leo clenched his fist and walked away immediately.

" Thank you all," Ricardo said and walked out of the conference hall. Barry and Scott followed him alongside his workers or those who worked in his modeling company.

Immediately the meeting was over they sneaked out because they recalled a bit of what happened last night. They couldn't stand their boss, so they took off.

Ricardo got so many congratulatory messages from people. Arya raced towards him and jumped on him, Ricardo almost lost his balance but he held her firm.

When will this sister of mine learn how to respect herself? Ricardo thought to himself as he let go of her and she stood holding his hands.

" I'm proud of you. I will head home first " Mrs. Yolanda said as she used her left hand to caress his hair. Ricardo drifted immediately because he felt awkward.

He began to turn around as if he was searching for someone. He raced forward and backward, but he couldn't find her.

" She promised to wait for me " Ricardo muttered but his mum heard him.

" Who promised to wait for you? "

" No one, it's nothing important. Just go home " Ricardo said and left with his assistants.

Mrs Yolanda and Arya entered the car and zoomed off.

..................

Leo entered his house, he was boiling in anger. He started breaking things, he picked up his frame and hit it hard on the floor and it broke into pieces.

Alma came out trying to stop him but he pushed her away, she stood up quickly. Ricardo began to punch the wall with his fist and in no time he sustained injuries which led to bleeding.

" Why are you hurting yourself instead of those who hurt you? Stop it!!! " Alma screamed on top of her voice.

" Stay out of this, you don't know anything just be quiet " Ricardo warned his wife but she can't let him continue hurting himself.

" I watched everything on the news. They have betrayed you and you should be stronger instead of this. You should prepare yourself ahead " His wife lashed out at him.

" How? They are not on my side " Leo said as he calmed down a bit.

" That shouldn't be a problem to you now. Someone is sitting in your position, get rid of him first and they would have no other option than to be by your side " Alma said.

Leo has always known that his wife is a brave woman but not to this extent. He kinda likes her for always being supportive.

" You are right but how? " Leo asked her because he has tried severally and failed.

" Don't worry, we will get to the bottom. I'm always here to help you but you can't do without cheating. Cheating ass " Alma said and walked inside.

She has succeeded in calming him down

and that is all. Not like she cared about him but she has her plans.

.......................

Gwen didn't go home when she left the conference hall, she decided to enter a shopping mall and look around or maybe pick someone.

She wasn't on funds but she doesn't feel like going home either. She strolled inside the mall and picked up a shoe, she was admiring it, when she turned around and saw a guy stealing.

The woman was standing with her handbag, unknown to her that someone had taken her purse. Gwen kept the shoe that she was holding and ran after him.

The woman turned and noticed what just happened, she ran after them but couldn't catch up with them. She watched as Gwen overtook the guy and punched him in the face.

He fell but got up immediately to hit Gwen, she held his hand and twisted it backward, and the guy screamed out in pain.

" Handover that purse " Gwen commanded and he did as she said. Gwen collected the purse and he ran away.

Gwen walked to the woman and handed the purse over to her.

" Thank you, my dear," She said smiling and Gwen smiled as well. She was about to leave when the woman stopped her.

" I know it's so sudden but I will let you think about it and I will give you my line whatever you decide I will go with it, " The woman said.

Gwen examined the young woman, she looked so rich and expensive. What could she possibly need from her?

" What is it, ma'am? " Gwen asked, looking confused.

" Mum!!! What just happened? " Gwen heard a familiar voice and turned around. It's Arya.

" Gwenevere!! " Arya said as she hugged Gwen " Thanks for recovering my mum's purse, " She said and Gwen smiled.

" Do you know each other? "

" Yes mum, she is my friend. Gwen, meet my mum, Mrs Yolanda. Mum, meet my friend Gwenevere " Arya beamed like a child.

" Nice meeting you ma'am,m," Gwen said smiling.

" Same here, my daughter. You are Arya's friend which means, things might be easier for me now " Mrs Yolanda said, confusing both girls.

" How? "

" How? " Gwen and Arya chorused together with a hint of surprise on their faces.

" I want you to work as a live-in housekeeper for my son. I will pay you hugely " Mrs Yolanda said sternly.

" Mum, she doesn't even know us from Adams " Arya said with a great surprise on her face.

" It takes just a day to know someone. After all, I've seen her and I like her, she is even your friend. Don't you think we are save with her? " Mrs Yolanda asked Arya.

" Mum!!!.. "

" Shut up "

" My dear, are you working somewhere for now? You can resign and I will triple your payment " Mrs Yolanda said as she held Gwen's palm.

Arya was shocked, her mum has never been this vulnerable. She always claims to be a no-nonsense woman. What's with her today? .

" Ma'am, I just resigned from my job and for now I don't have anything to do, " Gwen explained with her head down. Mrs Yolanda could tell that she is embarrassed.

" I understand and this is your opportunity my dear. Gwen, I think my family is safe with you " Arya felt like crying when her mum began to talk with Gwen.

" How old is your son ma'am? " Gwen asked her. While scratching her head.

" He is no longer a child but he is my child, he won't disturb you because he is a workaholic " Mrs Yolanda said with a smile on her face.

" I will think about it ma'am and I will give you a call " Gwen said as she collected Mrs Yolanda's contact.

" Gwen, let's hang out tomorrow with David " Arya said and she grabbed Gwen's hands because she didn't want a 'no' for an answer.

" Sure, I will also come with a friend of mine. Text David the address and he will tell me " Gwen said happily. Mrs Yolanda suddenly felt like she had two daughters.

" Bills on me " Mrs Yolanda said with a grin as she walked to her car.

" Thank you ma'am " Gwen screamed happily as she watched Arya leave with her mother.

" Hmm!!! They are so kind " Gwen smiled as she walked into the mall and paid for the shoe before leaving.

..................

Gwen got home happily as she opened the door, she caught a glimpse of Kathryn and her mum. She hopes towards them like a baby who is about to suck his mother's breast milk.

" Mum and Kathy, are you good? What are you preparing? Are you gossiping about me? " Gwen asked sheepishly as she gave them a hug.

" Why are you so happy? Kathryn asked Gwen, looking so curious.

" Anyways, I'm just happy that I could help a friend today. My effort counts " Gwen replied as she took a fresh vegetable and started eating it.

" What is the help about? " Gwen's mum asked her

" Nevermind " She said and walked to the couch. She decided to tell her mum and Kathryn about the job offer.

" Mum, Kathy, what do you think about this? "

" Think about what? " Gwen's mum was the first to ask, second by Kathryn.

" I got a job offer from a lady who I helped and secured her purse at the mall. She is very wealthy and promised to pay him hugely " Gwen replied looking at both of them.

" It's just for the main time and I will stop when I get another decent job, '' Gwen said, biting her lips.

" What's the nature of the job? " Kathryn asked impatiently.

" It's something I can do, but I haven't given her an answer yet because I don't want to look desperate, " Gwen said, trying to avoid Kathryn's question.

" What's the nature of the job? Why are you beating around the bush? " Mrs Laura said to her daughter.

" Mum, you would like it. The job is not stressful like my modeling job " Gwen said as she began to scratch her hair.

" It's a live-in housekeeper. I know her daughter, she is my good friends " Gwen said. She didn't tell them that she would be living with a man because she could tell that I mum won't accept it.

" You want to be a househelp? That's so low of you Gwen " Kathryn said angrily.

" I've made up my mind Kathy. I'm just informing both of you, I'm tired of being jobless and am fucking broke. I need this job, I'm sorry " Gwen replied apologetically.

" Gwenevere, are you sure about this? " Gwen's mum asked her with a face filled with concern.

" Yes mummy. She will pay me triple of my previous salary, we will never go broke again mum " Gwen said.

" If it's fine by you, I'm okay with it " Mrs Laura said to Gwen with a smile on her face.

" If it gets hard, I will always come to help you out. Whatever your decision is, I will stand by you " Kathryn said to Gwen as she rushed to the couch and hugged her.

" Thank you, I will send my reply to her tonight, '' Gwen said happily. She couldn't believe that she would be starting another new job. Unknown to her whom she was going to serve.

" Kathy, we will be hanging out tomorrow with David and Arya, " Gwen said happily.

" Wow, who is Arya? " Kathy asked with pouty lips.

" You will see her tomorrow, don't be in a hurry " Gwen replied and rushed to her room to freshen up. It has been a long day for her but it's among her happiest days.

When it was late at night Gwen brought her phone and texted Mrs Yolanda.

" Ma'am, I'm ready for the job. When can I resume? " Gwen was surprised when she got her reply immediately.

" Have fun tomorrow and resume the day after tomorrow. Arya will come over to pick you " Mrs Yolanda dropped the text with a smiling face.

" Thank you ma'am " Gwen replied and dozed off immediately.

.................

Ricardo stood with a cold gaze as all his workers brought their heads low. They knew what was about to happen, he hadn't said anything since days ago after they got drunk.

He strolled around them with both hands at his back. He kept walking like a restless child in search of his mother. His silence almost made them run mad.

" I want to hear the details on how you all left the office three days ago " Ricardo said but none of them could say anything.

" How did you end up wasting yourselves? Who did Gwen call? I need that number which she used in calling you guys " Ricardo said sarcastically.

He was smiling deep down his heart but he was just forming anger. Ricardo tried so hard not to laugh as he stood like an officer.

" Sir, she called and I have the number here with me " Gina said.

" Show me the number now, in fact here is my phone. Send it to my phone " Ricardo handed his phone to Gina and she collected it with trembling hands.

" Sir, we voted for you yesterday, " Elena said with a grin.

" Shut up " Ricardo said calmly and collected his phone from Gina.

" Sir, we don't .... " Alex tried to defend himself

" I said shut up " Ricardo said " How could you get such an information and didn't find it fit to tell me? Who is the boss here? " Ricardo asked no one in particular.

" You are the boss " They all chorused and Ricardo smiled. They all became confused, why is he laughing?

Ricardo has gotten the contact he needed, he turned his back and left them standing there.

" You can all go back to work " Scott said as he dismissed them all. His phone began to ring immediately

" Hello, " Scott said loudly.

" Mr King on the line. I've been calling your boss but it seems he is far from his phone " King's voice rang out.

" Good Day sir, any information about the contact? " Scott asked him respectfully.

" Yes, it's not something pleasant to the ear either " King said as he took a deep breath.

" What do you think? " Scott asked as he used the elevator.

" I will visit your office tomorrow, it's not all about the worker but it's also about the person who gave her the dirty job " King said with all seriousness.

" I will hand the phone over to my boss, I just entered his office " Scott said as he gave the phone to Ricardo. Ricardo collected the phone but didn't say anything, he was waiting for the other party to say something first.

" Ricardo, I've gotten all the information you need about Tiana but I have more information that will trigger you to know your enemy " King said to Ricardo.

" So? " Ricardo asked him.

" it's not something to discuss on phone because it might result in you or Scott traveling outside Switzerland " King informed and Ricardo was shocked.

" What?!!! Is it that serious? " Ricardo asked him.

" its more deeper than you thing. I will hang up now " King disconnected the call and Ricardo stared at Scott.

" He said we might travel outside Switzerland to sort out the issue, get ready " Ricardo said as he picked up his phone .

" I want to dial this number, it might be Gwen's new line " Ricardo said to Scott with a sweet smile on his face.

Scott gave him the expression of ' I hope you don't run mad because of this '

Ricardo dialed the number and heard a male's voice.

" Who the hell are you? " Ricardo screamed out, frustrated.

" I should be the one asking and not you, you fucking called my line bro "

Ricardo heard the voice and he felt that stranging the person on the other line.

" I want to speak with Gwen. Why are you answering her call? Give her the phone " Ricardo said feeling irritated.

" Now I know who is speaking and for your information. This is my line not Gwen's, I don't know why you keep barging into my privacy " David said teasingly.

Ricardo found out who it was and he felt that beating that arrogant bastard but he has to calm down, if he truly needs something from him.

" Please, I want to speak with Gwen. Can you give me her contact information? Just direct me to her house " Ricardo pleaded with David who gave him a mockery laughter.

" What nerves? " David said and ended the call.

Ricardo felt like killing David. He hasn't seen a child with such nerves in his entire life.

" Maybe that's what drew Gwen to him " Ricardo muttered angrily as he gazed at Scott who was standing next to him.

Scott felt like laughing at his miserable boss but he dares not. He never knew that Ricardo has this part in him, the Almighty Ricardo of Switzerland.

Scott left for his office and Ricardo stared at Gwen's office. The memories of her flooded in again, not only was he feeling lonely but he regretted ever confessing his love to her.

He did everything so fast, he rounded up by 7:25 pm. Ricardo carried his phone and car key as she drove out of the company. He couldn't wait to go home and have a rest.

He got home and was about to go inside when someone called out to him. He turned and surprisingly it was Bianca. What does she want?

" Ricardo " Bianca called him with a charming smile as usual. Ricardo took a deep breath as he put both hands in his pocket like a newly recruited police officer.

" What do you want BB?

" Nothing much, I just came to spend time with you. I didn't come to fight. Can we just be like we used to be before we had sex? " Bianca asked as she held his hands.

" I'm sorry to disappoint you Bianca but we cant be close, I was never friends with you please go home " Ricardo said sternly.

Bianca drew herself closer and planted a kiss on his lips immediately. She dug her finger into his trousers and got a grip of his dick.

Ricardo was shocked at her actions and he pushed her away.

" Bianca, how dare you? Control yourself or better still, pay someone to fuck you because I did that when I was drunk and I can never do it with you again " Ricardo yelled at her as he opened his door to go in but Bianca held his hand.

" Why all these attitudes? I know you never liked me but you were never rude to me. But now even my presence irritates you, why? " Bianca asked him.

" I owe you no explanation. Let go of my hands Bianca " Ricardo replied gently.

" I can see clearly that you are in love with someone but you look so frustrated as if she isn't reciprocating your love. She is lucky that I'm yet to find out who she is " Bianca said with veins on her forehead.

" What would you have done to her? " Ricardo asked Bianca, he knows that she can never go back on her words. She would carry out all her evil plans with the help of her father.

" I will be sure that life becomes unbearable to her. I will make sure that she doesn't live to see the next day and I will make sure that even after death, she doesn't rest in peace " Gwen threatened.

Ricardo has gotten used to getting threats but he became afraid because of Gwen. He stood and watched as Bianca drove off at a high speed.

He entered his house and laid down on the couch, not long and he dozed off

..................

Gwen woke up feeling good, she was going to hang out with her friends today and she will resume work the next day.

Its indeed a good feeling.

She entered the bathroom and shower, after that she came out and slid into a beautiful pink dress, Kathryn also had the dress. They bought it on their anniversary.

Gwen applied a touch up makeup, she wore her white heels and picked up her white purse. She stormed out of her room looking like Prianka Chopra, the screen goddess.

" Mum I'm heading out, don't wait for me at night okay? " Gwen said to her mum who was watching her favorite channel.

" Just be careful outside, you are my only child I don't want you to get hurt " Mrs Laura said to Gwen.

" Mum, I'm not a child okay? I will get you something on my way back. I love you " Gwen said and dashed out immediately.

She got outside and was shocked to see Kathryn's car already waiting for her. She happily hopped in the car and kissed Kathryn.

Kathryn slightly pinched her nipple and Gwen let out a moan. Kathryn's car is tinted, no one could see what's happening inside the car.

" Why are you messing with my head? " Gwen said jokingly as she parted her lips from Kathy's.

" Just a quick one. You look so charming and I can't concentrate if I don't touch you " Kathryn said as she raised Gwen's gown and slid her one finger into Gwen's core.

She began to rub Gwen's clit, and Gwen opened her leg widely as she moaned silently.

Kathryn thrust her finger into Gwen's pussy and began to move in and out. She added the second finger and Gwen bit her lips in excitement.

As Kathryn was fingering Gwen, Gwen raised Kathy's leg and began to suck her clit. She fondled Kathryn's Breast and they moaned together. Both of them became wet and if they don't stop, their appointment might get canceled.

" Let's leave it here, I've booked a reservation for us " Kathy said and Gwen became happy.

She took a tissue and cleaned her wet pussy, Kathryn did the same and they drove off as if nothing had happened.

" Why isn't David here with you? " Gwen asked Kathryn.

" He said that he will come out with that Arya of a girl. They should be waiting by now " Kathryn said.

They drove into the restaurant, they wanted to have lunch before other things.

Gwen and Kathry got out of the car like a celebrity.

As they walked into the restaurant, all eyes were on them but they didn't care. They looked around and saw David, taking pictures with Arya. They look so happy together.

Gwen and Kathryn walked up to them and sat next to them.

" Finally, you both are here " David said as they both smiled.

" Wow, they are putting on the same outfit. Are you a couple? " Arya said to the surprise of both Gwen and Kathryn.

Does she know about their relationship? Or maybe she is also a lesbian. Gwen and Kathy's Mind began to run wild.

" I knew it " Arya said

" You knew what? "

" You knew what? "

Gwen and Kathryn asked chorusly.
