In love again Chapter 1 ERIC WILLS

Breathtakingly handsome, thirty four years of age but age has got nothing on his looks and appearance. Ladies kind of man. Perfect height, perfect body tone, perfect physique and almost perfect all round. Eric though from Anambra state in Nigeria has lived most of his life at the overseas.

He is the founder and owner of Hadel textiles and fashions and has managed to circulate the industry all over the country and beyound while his major branch and office is at Lagos city.

It was after the death of his wife that he permanently relocated to Nigeria and only got abroad for business.

"Daddy!" squealed Ella and Precious as they ran to Eric. Eric lifted them up into his arms like they weighed nothing while they chuckled in the process.

"Sweethearts."

He kissed their cheeks lightly tucking in their hair behind while looking at his kids adoringly.

"Daddy did you get my shoes?" Ella questioned.

"What about my new socks?" Precious added.

Eric had been away the whole of the previous week and had promised them lots of goodies. He gently brought them down.

"Now,you close your eyes and only open them when I ask you to."

Quietly,while the girls closed their eyes,he sneaked to his safe where he hid their gifts and took them out. He hid them behind him.

"Now open up,open up."

Ella and Precious looked up at their father with huge expectant eyes. But they only turned sad the next moment.

"I'm so sorry sweethearts. I promise to get you all you want once I travel again. Pinky promise?" Eric pleaded with them as he made a sober face.

Ella and Precious looked down sadly.

"Hey,don't look that way sweethearts. Now see. Surprise!ta da!"

"Yeeeeeeeeeeey!"

The girls screamed in excitement.

"Thank you daddy!"

"You are welcome sweethearts and anything for you my babies.Now be good girls and go get ready for school." He kissed them lightly on the cheeks and sent them away for school.

Eric smiled warmly as he ran his hands on his hair. His kids,the ones he believed is his reason for living now. They are his strong hold and the reason he still smile even when he had a hole in his heart which can never be filled.

He had promised himself to love them always,to always put their needs and wants before his.

They make life make meaning to him and only because of them he wakes up each morning strong and ready to conquer anything and do anything for them.

No woman will ever come between them,he thought within himself.

"Hello son."

Mrs Wills said as she walked into Eric's room. She was having a mischievous smile on her face and right away Eric knew she had something up her sleeves and had come for something.

If it's money, wouldn't hesitate to give her except that these days her incessant demand of him finding love again is one thing he wouldn't entertain at that moment.

"Good morning mother. How are you?"

  "Very well son. How was your trip and meeting. Went well?" She asked as she made for the seat.

"Yes. It went well." Eric answered and gulped down the wate while he waited for her main reason of coming to see him. He was damned sure she was there for something.

"Mom?"

"Huh?" Mrs Wills was startled. Her mind had wandered off. His son,Eric used to be the happiest person she knew until Clara his wife died when Precious was barely three years old and that has completely changed him.

It has been two years since Clara died and yet each time marrying again is brought up to him, he flares up. He had insisted to live the rest of his life caring for his children and wouldn't need any woman in his life again.

But as a mother,she is worried. These kids are girls and would definitely need a mother figure in their lives someday which is sooner than he might even realize and she might not always be there. She is just their grandmother.

"Mr and Mrs Dallas was here while you were away." She said as she searched his eyes for emotions or anything at all.

"Oh! I hope they were treated well?" Eric asked avoiding his mother's gaze. He knew where she was headed and frankly he had no strength to follow her through that path.

"Did they needed anything?" Eric asked in a bid to get the conversation over with.

"Nothing I couldn't give them,except that they would want you to be happy again."

"Mother,I am happy the way I am." He replied without looking at his mother.

"If this state you are is what you call happy,then Eric I want you to be happier."

Eric sighed frustratedly and rubbed his hand on his forehead. He wished he had a way to make his mother end bringing up this topic and also make her stop worrying about him. Maybe there's a way but it obviously was not an option for him.

"Mother. You worry too much. I don't need a wife. I don't need a woman to make me happy. I am happy, Ella and Precious are happy."

"They need a mother figure Eric."

"Mum,you are here. You have been their mother for two years now and they have been perfectly fine." Eric argued.

"It is not the same Eric. You will have to think about this properly. Breakfast will be ready in ten minutes." Mrs Wills said and left giving Eric no chance to continue to disagree with her suggestion.

Eric groaned frustratedly. He hate to see his mother that way but why can't she just understand that he has lost the only love of his life and doesn't want to just pick any woman anywhere to marry.

He is willing to remain a widower all his life. He doesn't want to love anyone neither does he want to be loved by anyone.

If Ella and Precious needs a mother,she is there for them. At least they are not complaining about it.

He quickly went to the bathroom to freshen up. There were tons of work waiting for him at the office.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.

Inferno Heiress: Freed From Hell To Reclaim My Empire

Hayley was betrayed by those who should have loved her most. To save their precious adopted daughter from a punishment she deserved, her own parents sent Hayley straight into a living hell—an infamous prison where survival demanded cruelty, and weakness meant death. Four years later, the girl who had entered those iron gates no longer existed. She emerged with a single, unbreakable rule carved into her soul: Every betrayal would be repaid tenfold. The day she walked free, the world trembled. A convoy of luxury cars lined the road. A legion of loyal followers awaited her triumphant return. Her father tried to buy her silence with money. But money had long lost its power over her. Her adopted sister hid behind sweet words and false kindness. But empty smiles no longer fooled her. Everything that had once been stolen would be reclaimed—piece by piece. When her parents attempted to tie themselves to the city's most feared man by offering their adopted daughter, Hayley's lips curved into a cold smirk. "Not on my watch." Backed by a legendary hacker, shadowy allies, and an entire prison willing to burn the world for her, Hayley dismantled her enemies with terrifying precision. Then the tyrant noticed her. "You're interesting," he said. "Be my woman, and the city is yours." Hayley raised an eyebrow, unimpressed. "You want to own me? Survive me first." High society became their battlefield. Power collided with desire. Ambition clashed with obsession. In this ruthless game of dominance and temptation, only one would kneel first. The girl once abandoned in hell rose from its ashes, crowned by fire and vengeance—And in the end, even the most feared ruler in the city would bow, offering his empire to the woman who had conquered both hell… and him.
