.Grey povDid not believe what was going on in my life at the moment. The thing that was going on between me and my secretary was something that I had not even imagined that I could see at all . With all that realization I knew that what I ad to do was to end it and that way I pulled away from her . I look at Noreen right in the eyes , but s if she as provoking me her yes don’t leave mine . Her gaze is still locked in me with an intensity that makes my heart race . I feel a flush rise ti my cheeks , a mix of excitement, nervousness and then something else that I could not tell what it was . I did not know I it was there to destroy me or to feed me and make me so much strong .I took a deep breath and I could feel that she was also doing the same , there as no doubt that everything between us had changed . I knew that the thing that I was supposed to do at that time was to apologized and promise that that it was not going to happen again but not did I do any of that . Not at all . w
.Grey povI stared at my phone as it went on to ring .If I was to do anything last then it was to pick this damn caller.“hello.” I hesitate but then speak after some time . I felt the heaviest burden just talking to her . I cou;d rather do something else rather than talk to her.“Hey , I have been trying to get to you but all in vain.”“I never expected that you could go to work today .” She went on to bubble . I swear I did not want to listen to anything that she was saying . “You went without even telling me , come on that was not how it was supposed to be .” I reached at a moment and I did not know what to say to her any more. I could not tell whether all this that she was saying was aimed at provoking me or not .“I had to .” that is all I could say .“Ben , I am your partner . You have to involve me in everything that you do . I know you are going through so much at the moment but I want to let you know that I am going to be there for us .” of course if she was talking all th
.Grey povI stared at his black unkempt beard and hair .My eyes then slowly travelled up at his right cheek, there was a very huge scar that was now healing . His left cheek equally had some scars but those could only be seen by some one who was very observant . He slightly smiled showing me a broken tooth at the front.His faded black jeans hanged well around his body . Just looking at him could make any person wonder what the hell he was doing in such a place .His looks did not fit in such a place . He was not meant for this place that was all .“What are you doing here ?” I asked him perhaps the tenth time . Just like he had done the previous times, he did not care at all . The way he acted was as though he owned this place . Instead of saying anything , what he did was just to stand up and moved drastically towards the window . He felt all relaxed just like a boss. After a bout five seconds, he turned back and sat down again . Up to this time , he had not said a single word to m
.Grey pov“wait , repeat what you have just said.” I almost yelled at him . I was so furious . Even speaking the words out was getting hard. I thought about the scenario about how my dear one dead. I still recall how he acted , what if it was all a plan for him to act as though he did not want anything that was going on with me ? I just could not stop thinking about that now .I now see and think that everything to some extent was so strange , I just could not stop thinking about it . It was like there were things that were not adding up at the moment . A chilling certainty now goes into my mind and this time it is much more stronger . That must have been the reason behind him. And now hearing a a live confession from my Hit man worsens everything . I believe it was the plan .The thought that sends a chill down my spine . I felt a wave of grief and regret washing over me but at the same time fixed with a sense of anger and determination to take revenge . The desire to get to t
. Noreen POV I entered my office feeling rather breathless. I did not know what I was even thinking when I did all that . I sat on my desk , my mind reeling with thoughts and emotions. Those kisses with my dear boss left me feeling really puzzled. What the hell was I thinking about in the first place as well as vulnerable? I swear I never expected things to move that far . I thought the only job that I was supposed to do was to ensure that I was royal and efficient . I never realized that my feelings for him had gone much beyond from what I expected in just a blink of an eye. The desire had grown so strong in just such a short period of time I never expected it that way at all. I know very well that involving with him can jeopradize my career that I am actually just beginning to build. However there is one thing that I cannot deny and that is how I feel towards him. I am so drawn to him , his looks , his work as well as his charisma .i was in cross roads. He is a marr
. Grey povDamn it . Damn it ..that was not anything like what I had thought . How had I even turned put that way . I mean she is the only person that I have . Some one who truly cares about me and now , see what I have done . Grey , I will surely never make anything serious to move on in my life . How could I even turn out to be so easily and above all a monster to a woman who I can tell that she is on my side . That is something that I can easily see …I could have shut up but I being a asshole that I am I ended turning all the anger that I have towards him. I feel it is me since I did it all . I had taken all the frustration that I have towards her, Noreen. She had been there and that was not how she needed to be paid to her as a I reply .I paced in my own office wondering what was the right thing for me to do . I could not believe that a woman was making me behave this .“Come on , Grey . you know very well that what you are doing is not the right thing . For once a woman was
.Grey pov I eagerly got the file that he had tossed me this time round.“What is this ?” I aske looking at the file keenly . My heart had even started sinking before finding out what was in there . It was as though there was even anything good that I expected to get from her . I married her for a reason that I know very well. “So much is in there .” he told me confidently . this prompted me to even open and see what was there indeed. “financial records?” I said out loud though I did not intend to say it out loud. “I can see that she has been trying to hide rather a large amount of money.” I added. Though I knew this and much more was bound to be found out , I feel a wave of anger and betrayal washing over the whole of my body . I go ahead to scan the financial records . How could she even be able to do this . These were documents that I was sure I never let her come across. “I want to know more, how was she able to access these secret accounts . It cannot be that she was do
.Mariana POV“Mariana, what the hell is behind this smile ?” My brother Matt asked me when we met again to talk about the progress of everything .“You have no idea how happy I am.” Of course I could not hide the excitement . You have no idea how long I have been doing to ensure that I got to this pint just like I am on . “look.” I said and then handed my brother the files that I had in my hands. I then stared at him as he scanned through the documents . Either a frown or a smile formed on his face . I did not care at all . “What is this ?” He asked me looking me right in the eyes. “Come on Matt, don’t tell me that you don’t understand it . All the money that we need has been transferred . Now it is time to make the last stand all will be okay .”“Sister , you are indeed so great . How did you manage to do it .”“I want to tell you that I can do anything if it is to get money . You know me when it comes to money .”“Of course I know very well. That is how you made that Naïve Gr
Noreen POVBut I was not going to let her have any of that . I had to find out who was calling her and it had to be now.“Excuse me, I have to pick this call.” She said as she started to move way but I did not et that happen , I quickly got hold of her phone and in one instant it was no longer in her hands but rather in my hands . “I have to see who is calling , it seems like you are already beginning to go off topic. You know what we have agreed about and that is not happening .” I cursed out as I stared at her phone . it was not not hard to tell who was calling her . It was obvious her husband who actually doubles as my boyfriend.Hahaha, things were really funny and this really Made me laugh.“Give me my phone. I have to answer him.” I however did not give a damn on what she was saying. I quickly ended the call without even giving it any second thoughts and then dashed her phone back to her.“Mariana , don’t tell me that you are beginning to feel otherwise, let us just have to co
.Noreen povI wondered what he had in mind. I wanted so hard to try and see that I could at least get it but it was impossible . I wondered what he wanted to tell me . Any way , I decided to ignore it at the moment and stood up heading back to my office .I had to complete everything I had to do before I went back to a very important meeting that I had later on. I sat in my office but my mind was completely far away. There was no way it could be here . I had no idea that my life could move on this way . Things were moving in the very way that I needed them to move . This was the most happier thing that had happened to me for some time now .When Rob left his office , he did not come back. This was a perfect moment for me to accomplish what I have been planning for quite a long period of time.At 4pm, I got my bag and exited the office. The cab took like forever but it finally came and I got in .I gave the cab driver the location . I was so excited at all this . It had been some
Grey povI was bond to find out whose car it belonged to without fail. I knew he did not have a car . I stealthily went into my car and started following the black BMW. My heart was racing as I wondered what the hell was waiting for me a head.My mind hear very many conflicting royalties as I wondered what the hell I was to do . I had so many things going on in my mind.The cool air of the afternoon whipped through my hair as I drove closely behind the BMW. My senses heightened. As I followed , memories from back in the cafe swept through me . I recalled exactly how Noreen was talking with the mysterious woman . I had tried so much but at the end of it I had not been able to see her right in the face.Maybe that could have helped me to solve this riddle that is going on. I could have been able to get all the answers that I need to solve all that I am going through. What if Noreen was just like all those that have been problematic to me . At this time , I did not now what and whom t
.Grey POVI sat in my car wondering if it was not insane for me to go after there . I could not believe how far I had gone but that was the right thing to do .After having conflicting loyalties with in myself. I decided to once again let my curiosity take me over . It was better to always let you find out the answers to all those questions that you have . I pulled into the café parking lot , my heart was obviously racing as I wondered if what I was doing was the right thing to do .It was now or never, I was now going to confirm if Noreen was up to something. I was tired of not underrating anything that was taking place . I needed to find out everything once and for all.I got out of my car , I scanned the area and headed towards the café , it was one of those popular cafes that is in the middle of the city . it had words at the entrance that were in calligraphy “Busy café.” A busy place where everyone meets and sees .I pushed the door open and stepped into the warm inviting atmos
.Grey PovI practically stormed out of the house. I was feeling so angry . I felt so angry in a way that I did not even know that I could .it appeared like my emotions were suddenly not mine anymore. I rushed towards my parking lot and entered the first car that I found . I felt like my life was taken over by someone else. It happened as though everything that I had going on was now escalating.I recalled all the events that had resulted into this . I could not believe that things could get any more serious like they were now . They were now much more than what I had ever expected them to be . I then started the engine and started the car towards my office. As I drove, my thoughts consumed by the uncertainty . I was still wondering how things had gotten to this point . I could I changed the point at which I wanted them to move . Maybe I should not have married her and decided to have then punished instantly. The traffic however seemed heavier than always . I found myself in a sea o
Grey povWhen I went out of the bathroom, I swear I was not the same at all. I had such terrible misconceptions of everything .I was a walking Zombie back to the bedroom that I did not even hear how Mariana was calling me. “Are you okay?” I was obviously tired with her question all the time. How I wish she even knew that she was root cause of everything that I was going through.I turned back looking at her . She was flashing me one of those innocent faces that she was good at portraying but of course I did not care since I was more able to dig through them all and know what this was about . I opened my mouth ready to say the first word that my mouth could produce after all , there was nothing I came up with. My mouth instead just betrayed me .I turned around and got my laptop heading outside immediately . I did not care how she felt that I had ignored her. I knew very well that she did not feel anything at all. I went straight into my home office . Surely there was so much
.Grey POVI did not say anything to her but just took the ringing of my phone as an excuse to get away from her . She was managing to get my crazy even without me realizing it. So much was getting into me . I stepped out of the hospital building and quickly put the phone on my ear . It was a number that was unknown but I suspected who had called. “Yes.” I said the moment I stepped outside the building . “Have you finished reading the paper?” there was no way I could forget the voice of that mysterious lady. This increased my curiosity and recalled that I still had the piece of paper in my pocket.“No…I meannnn…. yes.” I said stammering .“You are not serious . We labored a lot but you are rather taking us for granted.” She switched off the light. I got puzzled even more. I could not think about any reason that could make them pressure me this way .Perhaps there was something that I was missing . it was actually becoming more like a puzzle that was very difficult to solve . What
.Grey povI stepped through the doorway , and the heavy wooden door creaked shut behind me , enveloping in total darkness. The air inside the place was stale , and the smell of old books and dust filled my nostrils arising my allergies but I managed to contain them. This was not the moment for that .After some time , I managed to adjust my eyes into the darkness getting familiar to everything that was here. I saw his silhouette ahead , his footsteps echoing off the stone walls. “Man?” I said as I had not yet found out the name of my companion .He turned , his eyes gleaming into the faint light . ‘Where are we ?” I asked , my voice barely above a whisper.“This is where you are going to get the information that you are looking for .” I stared around but could not make out anything serious at all. It was like he was leading me into a mystery like those that we have seen in those thriller movies that are always so hard to tell their meaning .I stared at this man and I swear I was
I could not believe what I had just uttered out to her . I swear I did not mean to mention anything like that . It just came at a period when I did not expect it . I was slowly losing everything that I had as sanity . I was now just a useless nincompoop who formerly was the most suitable bachelor in town . Not only that but also one of the richest in town.I turned towards the Bristia who was looking at me keenly.“Now what are you looking at !” I cursed and then stormed out of the café . Outside I stood there looking at this side of the country that is completely dark .I wondered why lights had to go off at this time of the night . I stormed back to the café . My mind raced with questions . What the hell was happening altogether . What exactly had happened to Richard? what if it was true that Richard was not died. “Richard was died for some time and now why was I getting calls now?’’I paced for a moment and then decided to first call Noreen , she needed to get apologies for how I h
