Damion was home alone, he had just gotten back from work, standing in the little bar in his living room, Damion took out a bottle of whiskey and began to pour some of its contents into a glass cup. Finding out that Malika wasn't pregnant and he wouldn't be a father of a child begotten by his ex who dumped him at his lowest was a huge relief to him. The burden on his chest has been lifted, which was why he decided to drink. Damion pulled one of the dining chairs out and sat down, placing the bottle of whiskey on the table together with the glass cup which was half filled, of course, he was cautious, it wouldn't be nice if he got drunk. As he drank, his mind lingered on Bianca, although he was glad that the whole pregnancy saga had been sorted out, he still didn't know how to settle his issues with Bianca. She was hurt by his actions of letting Malika into his home without Bianca's consent, D
Bella knew at this point she needed to think fast, it would be too late to cry when the head was off, if she wanted to live then she would need to do something fast. Everything happened so quickly and when Bella got a hang on herself, she swerved into the other lane avoiding the incoming vehicle but a screeching sound followed as the two vehicles scratched each other violently. She quickly stepped on the brakes and parked by the roadside, the other vehicle had also stopped and a fat man walked out, his shirt barely covering his protruding belly, He had a bottle of alcohol in hand. By now various vehicles had been parked around the scene with a few people trying to find out what happened. “What is wrong with you ma'am, are you so blind that you didn't see me coming?” the man thundered arrogantly as he approached Bella. Bella stood transfixed, shocked by t
It was a cool evening, the bar was warm, and there were different kinds of people having a good time. Bella was on her second bottle. She wasn't so much of a drunk but she could spare a few glasses. “Refill” she giggled and slammed the little transparent cut on the counter. “I see, you are trying to compete with me” Scott smiled, he gulped down the contents of his cup and slammed his cup on the counter just like Bella did. “Refill” Scott smiled as he smirked at Bella. The bartender, who seemed kind of less interested in whatever these two were doing, began filling their cups reluctantly like he had been compelled to do so. “Alright here we go” Scott cheered as he gulped down the contents of his cup. “Oh! You …” Bella frowned as she gulped down the contents of her cup and dropped the cup on the counter. “Refill” Scott announced to the ba
Malika felt like her whole body was frozen on the spot, her brain was trying so much to process everything. She couldn't help but wonder how Wes had gotten this information. How was he aware of the pregnancy saga, it had not escalated, if not, it would have been all over the news. “since it didn't escalate, then someone must have told Wes about it” Malika pondered. “Are you going to say something or do you prefer standing and staring like a moron?” Wes cursed, clenching his fist in anger. Malika snapped out of her thoughts, she wanted to yell back at Wes, one thing she hated was being abused, but she knew she was in the wrong today and she needed to keep her cool. “Babe please be calm, I will explain everything to you” Malika voiced. Wes frowned “Did I just hear you say calm? I should be calm?” Wes asked sarcastically. “Yes, just let me explain, I will explain,” Malika replied. She moved forward in an attempt to hold Wes' hand but he declined, side-stepping out of the way. “Y
In the lounge area of Mr Smith, who happens to be Wes' father, there was a pool and beside the pool, three people were seated around a table including Mr Smith himself. There were three glass cups on the table and a bottle of wine. A lady who was wearing a uniform, a white top with a black bow tie and black trousers was currently pouring wine into the empty glass cups on the table. “Like I said earlier, I need to infiltrate the lance towers, and you, my friend will be the one to do that for me” Mr Smith sipped from one of the glass cups.One of the men who had a mixture of black and gray hair scoffed “How am I to do that? you know, if were to be honest with ourselves, we will all agree that the Lance Towers is the most powerful company in all of Gold City”“Oh! shut up Gerard, is that an excuse on your path?” Mr Smith frowned. “No, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it is impossible to infiltrate the Lance towers…I”
The boat had already begun to sail, it was a small boat but it had enough space to contain more people, probably up to 20 people at max. This meant that, with Damion and the rest being only six, there was enough space left. “Who wants to do some fishing?” Mr Lance announced. “I could do some of that, what do you think Bianca?” Damion asked, he turned his head to the side to look at Bianca who nodded in affirmation. “That would be fun,” Bianca replied with a nod. “What about you Bella?” Damion asked, glancing between Bella and Scott.“Sure we could,” Bella smiled “What about you Scott, would you like to try?” Bella asked with a smile. Damion could see that Bella had her fingers intertwined with that of Scott, this made his blood boil. Earlier when he saw Scott, he was mad because he didn't like the man, he was only mad because he didn't like the idea of bringing a stranger into a family hangout,
Getting to the area where he had heard Bella's scream, Damion could see Scott standing just by the edge of the boat staring into the water. “What did you do?” Damion thundered as he approached Scott. “I don't know, I wasn't quick, I wasn't looking when she tripped and fell into the sea” Scott stammered. Without stopping to listen to Scott's excuses, Damion jumped into the water, he already saw Bella struggling in the water so he quickly grabbed her and pulled her up and close to him.“It's ok I got you,” Damion said to Bella who clung to him like he was going to disappear and never return. Damion got Bella out of the water and by this time, everyone was around the scene, Bianca, Mr lance, and the sailor. “My goodness, Bella, are you ok? here take this” Mr. Lance comforted, he approached Bella and covered her with a large blanket.“How dare you?” Damion thundered as he turned to Scott, his eyes burning with anger, “You pushed her into the sea didn't you?” Damion yelled. “No, of c
Although the night was dark, Jack could still make out the shadowy figures of the people around him. He was certain that these people were four in number, they looked huge and the smallest among them was a skinny dude who was still around 6 feet tall. Jack knew there was no way he could fight these guys, so he tried so much to refrain and not fight back, allowing them to do what they wanted and leave. Jack groaned in pain as two punches landed on his face sending him to the ground. They had caught him unaware, not even giving him a chance to move or defend himself.After the first two blows, Jack was able to brace his head, allowing the rest of the blows to hit him on his body rather than his head. “What do you have with you?” one of the men yelled, his voice was thick and audible. The rest of them began to search and empty Jack's pockets, turning them in and out. They took all the cash they could find, jack was lucky he was
