Just Good As A Pretty Husband

Inside a massive office space designed with amazing art and every piece of furniture in the office was screaming class and the interior design was forced out nicely.

Three men could be seen sitting in the office space discussing something over some files in their hands but they suddenly got interrupted by someone badging into the room.

"How are you doing, Mr. Brooke," the intruder asked strolling into the office.

The three men in the office were Dylan and two directors of the company and they were currently briefing him on what he missed during his trip.

"Let's end it here," Dylan stressed voice rang up and the directors stood up, bowing to him and then to the man that barged in before they make their way off the office.

"What are you doing here Kelvin?"Dylan asked boldly and the man.

The intruder was none other than Kevin Hale one of Dylan's friends and the heir to cherry entertainment, the top entertainment industry in the country he was even more famous for his playboy lifestyle but that's for another day.

He was also infamous for making his friends live miserably and he derived pleasure from it.

"You don't have to look like an aggrieved widow I am here to just tell you that the boys make plans tonight and they want you in attendance," he says about to take a seat on Dylan's chair but Dylan was swift to push him off and that earned him a glare from Kelvin.

"You can just call, "Dylan says pointing out not interested in whatever he had to say.

"I missed you too so, thought why not come, "Kelvin say cutely trying to irritate Dylan and he worked because Dylan almost pukes in disgust.

"Out," Dylan ordered coldly but that doesn't give Kelvin scared they had been friends since childhood so his cold attitude doesn't freak him.

Kelvin went to sit on the couch present in the office and he started scrolling through his phone.

When Dylan saw that his friends weren't going anytime soon so he begin working on some paperwork.

"I heard aunt Margaret acted up again, "Kelvin says breaking the silence Dylan got pissed and when he tried to scold him Kelvin's voice rang out again.

"You know I heard uncle Craig went to visit the home minister, "Kelvin says and Dylan's ear perked up curiously.

Dylan's family were like hungry wolves that would do anything to devour their prey and Dylan as the possible heir to the group always needed to be alerted of his family or else he might be the prey that they were going to devour.

"Why the hell is he meeting up with the home minister?"Dylan inquired not understanding the connection.

"My source says he might try to run for the mayor in the upcoming election," Kelvin revealed with a bored look while picking his ears.

Kelvin might look like a spoilt young master but among Dylan's friends he had the most scattered social network that supplied him with accurate information, you can call him a god when it comes to digging up anything on people whether digging up their dirt or covering them up with dirt.

"Why is it taking everything too hard, he is just good as a pretty husband," Dylan says skipping through the files on his desk not giving a dam about the talk but Kelvin's next words halted his movement.

"Yeah but I'm sure you will feel pressure if you heard your aunt is going all the way to make him mayor by seeking out uncle Taylor but don't worry Gerald is going to take care of it and he says you don't have to thank him, "Kelvin says like a blabber mouth he is but Dylan already know his friend to know they we take care of it.

Dylan's face contorts darker when he remembers how his aunt almost ruined his administration by messing with the company's stock but she is trying to get her husband into politics, what a joke, Dylan thought.

"Wow this looks like a good promotion and Galen and Sandra look like a couple here I should....," Kelvin says scrolling through his phone but his phone was immediately snatched off by Dylan.

Dylan looked at the picture displayed on the phone screen and his eyes were shooting out fireballs.

His aura got frigid and his grey eyes held murderous intent in them but Kelvin just shakes his head at his friend's childishness.

"Give me back my phone before you drop it," Kelvin says taking back his phone from his friend.

"And can you please dim that cold aura it's choking me here,' Kelvin teased his friend Dylan turned and glared at him before he makes his way back to his seat getting himself busy with work.

Kelvin looked at his disturbed friend and his expression was horrible after seeing the picture of Sandra and Galen.

"You know I just signed Galen as one of my artists and I am going to make sure he starred in all of Sandra's upcoming movies, you know they are the country's most anticipated couple right?"Kelvin asked trying to get under Dylan's skin and with his grim expression it was working.

Dylan's friends knew about the deal that went down between him and Sandra a few years ago so they always tease him about it since they knew him to be the possessive type it was easy to get under his skin.

Dylan went back to his seat not trying to strangle his friend and kelvin's expression immediately turn earnest displacing his earlier playful mode.

"If you like her so much don't you think you should tell her, "Kelvin says twirling with the antique in front of him.

"If you would ask me I think 6 years was too many years, you should have told her everything by now, and by everything I mean everything," Kelvin says hinting at the detail and he walked out of the office after that.

Dylan looked at the files on his desk that weren't making any more sense and he picked up his phone to call her but he kicked against he pushed that off for days so he can talk to her in person so, a few hours won't be too much.

"Just wait a few hours babe," Dylan mumbled looking at the heaps of files on his table that were stocked up on his days of absence.

"Don't forget to use a heating pad," Becky says for the umpteenth while dropping Sandra's bag on the couch.

After a long day at the orphanage, the two later get to go back home and they were currently inside Sandra's apartment.

"Do you have to leave you to know you can stay," Sandra says cutely but Becky shakes her head vigorously.

"You know we can't do that Mr. Brooke doesn't like people around," Becky says and Sandra's mood dulled when she heard his name.

"He is out of the picture so he is not going to come here anymore," Sandra rambled sitting angrily on the couch and Becky was amused by the girl. acting uninterested but he was worried.

"For a 26-year-old girl you are silly," Becky says making her way out of the apartment.

"Didn't forget that you have an ad to shoot tomorrow, wake up early," Becky yelled from the door but Sandra didn't bother answering.

She went quietly into her bathroom to shower and after that, she went to the kitchen to make coffee and maybe some pancakes.

"I think I should be awarded for being fn making poison," Sandra says looking at the burnt offering on the kitchen table she just smiled sadly grabbing her coffee with her too. the living room abandoning the concoction she just make.

"At least my coffee is the best and I can survive on that," Sandra says referring to her terrible cooking skills.

She decided to watch some movies but she kicked against it and she just stared bored at the painting that was hung in the opposite direction from where she was seated.

She sighed sadly at how her life had been over the years, she had focused more on her career that looking back now she knew she doesn't even have a social life to fall back to.

She had only wrapped her life around her career and her him so, how can she even have a social circle?

She was so immersed in her thought that she didn't notice but when the ring was too much it jolted out of her thoughts and she looked around in shock.

"Is that my doorbell?"Sandra asked no one in particular and she took stealthy steps toward the entrance wondering who might be knocking on her door.

"Becky knows the pin so who is it?"Sandra asked herself and she peeped at the door hole and when she saw the person's face she was shocked.

She quickly flung her door open and her view was blocked by the person's face

"You....what are you doing here?"
