''Who did I ask to watch Laura? How come nobody knew that she was close to having me divorced?'' Mr. Ban asked Barter as he stepped out of his house, intending to go for a meeting. Barter looked at Mr. Ban in shock. ''Divorce you?'' he asked his boss. Mr. Ban nodded as he entered the car. Barter helped Mr. Ban close the door, and then he went around the other side of the car into the driver's seat. ''Her lawyer sent me an email this morning, serving me a divorce prompt,'' Mr. Ban reported. Barter could not believe his ears. He turned around to look at Mr. Ban closely as he sat behind him.Was his boss joking? Mr. Ban often threw expensive jokes around when he was in the mood. Was this one of them?''Boss, are you joking?'' Barter asked, his eyes shining in disbelief. Mr. Ban shook his head and handed his phone over to Barter to see for himself. Barter took Mr. Ban's phone from him and looked at the screen. There, he saw it clearly, the divorce letter had been served to Mr.
''Ma'am, you have to wait until the boss returns, he told me not to let anyone out of the house, as he is currently conducting some sort of check on the house,'' one of the gangstas at home told Laura Ban when she was trying to ''take a walk.''Laura frowned. She was going to scold the man that had just stopped her, but again, she realized that the man would rather take Mr. Ban's side over hers at any time, Mr. Ban was the one paying him his salary after all. ''Wait, or, you can even come with me. I won't be long, I just really need to go to the grocery,'' Laura pleaded seductively.The gangsta swallowed hard. What was she doing?What was the boss' wife doing to him, was she trying to get him in trouble with Mr. Ban?Laura Ban smoothed the man's skin with her pale hands, caressing him into listening to her and taking sides with her. ''I said you can come with me, that way you are sure of where I am at all times. No need to panic,'' Laura Ban cajoled the man. She continued to care
''Charles, what does this have to do with you? Get lost, I do not want any problems with you,'' Barter warned Charles Ban sternly. ''It has everything to do with me, this is my brother's wife,'' Charles Ban replied, reaching out to help Laura Ban up. Barter chuckled with sarcasm. ''The one that sent your brother a divorce prompt? Is that the woman that you seek to protect?'' Barter asked. At this point, Charles Ban froze. ''I beg your pardon, what did you say?'' he asked. ''You heard me, Charles. Don't act like that. You heard what I said. This woman here served your brother a divorce prompt,'' Barter said to Charles Ban clearly. ''And oh, I caught her seducing Abel. She was trying to run away again,'' Barter added as he got up from the bed, staring at Laura Ban with hate. Laura wished Mr. Ban would listen to her and give Barter his own apartment outside of Ban's villa. Barter scared her a lot. Charles Ban was speechless as he looked at Laura. ''Why?'' he eventually asked af
Barter paused. "Bitch!" He muttered through gritted teeth as he looked at Laura Ban with his usual hateful eyes. Laura smiled slyly and victoriously. Did he think she was going to go down easily? Definitely not. She was ready to fight him. Thankfully, he had something that she could hang on to against him, so Laura Ban's eyes were gleaming with expectation. "How dare you threaten me? Vile bitch, who the hell do you think you are?" Barter asked. Laura Ban fluttered her eyes. "I'm sure you know by now, that your boss still wonders how I got to find my way around from the onset. As soon as he hears that the person responsible for it is none other than his most trusted errand boy, Barter, he will, first of all, be very disappointed, right before he puts a bullet through your hot head," Laura Ban said with even viler. Barter smiled wickedly. "You think you are on to something, don't you? You consider yourself a player, right?" He asked. Laura Ban did not reply, instead, she smac
"Charles..." Laura Ban called her brother-in-law when she had the opportunity to be alone with him in the same space. Charles Ban looked at Laura without an ounce of enthusiasm.He was literally, truthfully tired of her shenanigans. She had a lot up her sleeve. "Are you upset with me?" Laura Ban asked him as soon as she was sure that she had his attention. Charles Ban scoffed and shook his head. "What do you want, Laura? Or is it Ramien or whatever you called yourself back then," Charles Ban asked. Laura Ban pursed her lips and kept her gaze on him. She didn't know what to say, all she wanted to know was if he was upset with her, and then she will take the conversation from there. Asking her what she wanted? She was not even sure of what she wanted anymore. "I...uh...I don't want anything. Why are you asking?" she replied. "If you don't want anything, then why are you all over the place?" Charles Ban asked. Laura Ban was going to say something, but she was taken aback by C
Begging Barter for mercy was like trying to fill the ocean up with a fork. Laura only stared at him timidly, she couldn't even bring herself to say anything like begging. Begging Barter, from Laura? Of course everyone knew what the outcome would likely be. "Barter, we can talk about this. I also saw you trying to mount her by force, so I guess that we are even," Charles Ban said. Barter appeared to be thinking vividly. Yes, he must have been caught in the act, but there was a difference. At least, he didn't have mutual agreement with Laura Ban to kiss her, so he had technically not stolen her from her husband, but you see good ol' Charles Ban? He had coveted his brother's wife already, obviously. Barter looked at Laura with pure disgust. At this point, there was no denying his hatred for the woman for various reasons. First of all, he had tried to woo her in the last. If he could remember clearly, he had tried to get Laura in this same position that she was in with Mr. Ban's
''Barter, I have heard from my wife time without number that you hate her and that you want to kill her,'' Mr. Ban eventually called Barter privately to his study, to listen to Barter's side of the story. ''Boss...'' Barter replied, not exactly knowing what to say to refute what Mr. Ban had told him. Mr. Ban stared at Barter with expectation. He had to give him a reason not to believe what Laura was saying because she had complained a little too much and a little too intensely for Mr. Ban to continue to ignore her. What if something actually happened to her in the hands of Barter? Mr. Ban would be very cross with himself. ''You have to say something, Barter. Something other than...boss...'' Mr. Ban said. ''I...I am not trying to kill Laura, boss...'' Brater replied. ''So why does she insist that you want to kill her? She has told me about this a long time ago, but I have always ignored her because I didn't see the likeliness of you doing something like that under my nose, but o
Heavy disappointment existed in the heart of Mr. Ban following what Barter had told him. But, why? Why did Charles have to do this to him? And Laura, why did she indulge with his brother? Did Charles force her? Did Charles have anything he could use against her? Maybe he had an upper hand so he forced her to bed with him. Mr. Ban was alone in his study, staring at the screen of his computer unknown to him that Charles Ban had been standing in front of him for a while, trying to get his attention. "Is everything okay, Damien? You have been staring into thin air for a long time," Charles Ban asked. Mr. Ban looked at Charles Ban, his brother's ugly and hideous face had covered the one-time handsome and innocent-looking face that Charles Ban once had. Mr. Ban looked at his brother closely, wondering whether Charles Ban will confess to sleeping with his wife.If Mr. Ban asked Charles Ban about it, will Charles Ban not deny the allegations at once? "Charles, I think you need to leav
