They talked for some more time in his office. Him telling her and asking her time and time again for her to tell him about the people that wanted him dead.But the woman refused to review their identity.All he could make of it, and the people he could think of, were his in-laws. After what he just did to them, they were out to get him and will do about anything for them to get their hands on his money and everything he had now.“Listen, Natalia, I appreciate what you are doing here. But they wanted me dead because they didn’t want me to attend the party. Because of what I have now. So, they are not expecting me there. And I need to be aware of them when I show my face there. Just tell me who they are?” He pleaded.But the woman just looked at him and smiled. Took another sip from the wine and slapped the bottle on the table. “We talked about being confidential. You almost refused to take this offer because I betrayed the people that hired me first. And besides, what will be the fun o
He looked at her as he repeated the question, “what do you mean by the one I’m not expecting will be the one that hired you?”She smiled, looking at him, “nothing. I was just telling you to keep an eye open. And speaking of eye opening, your wife has been looking at us all this time. Actually, a lot of people are looking at us. I think she is jealous,” she spoke and tapped his shoulder as she walked past him.He stood there, thinking about what she just said to him. People were canning, that is one thing he knew. But what she said about him trusting people was something he really needed to put into consideration. What if as Natalia said the one his not expecting to hire Natalia was the one that hired her? That will give the person way too many chances to eat away with everything because he or she is not on the suspect list.Just as he turned to Natalia, Eliza called. “Trevor, can you come here please,” she gestured to where she was standing with three men that looked to be in their ea
He looked at her with rage burning in his eyes when he asked again, “what the hell are you doing here, Natalia? I thought I made it clear that you need to leave this place,” he spoke and finally allowed Eliza to get out of his grip.“Well, I thought about everything. Your offer of me allowing you to be safe,” she spoke and walked past him, then locked the door and put the keys in her pants. “And I reached a conclusion dear,” she spoke and looked at Eliza. “I’m sorry that things didn’t work out between us, but it was nice doing business with you,” she spoke.Trevor stood there dumbfounded, trying to grasp what she was saying. What does she mean it was nice doing business with her? Was she saying that to him or to his wife?And if to his wife, when did Eliza and Natalia meet and began doing business together?“Oh, you didn’t tell him? Whoops,” she spoke and slapped a hand on her mouth. “I thought that is the reason his dragging you up here like a mad person,” she smiled at Eliza.“Natal
He looked at them again, waiting for them to say what they wanted at his house. Why they would even show up and block him from going to work? But they just stood there. Watching him.“Aren’t you supposed to say something or anything? What do you want here?” He finally asked.Then one of the police officers spoke, “Sorry, sir, but someone reported you to us that you kidnapped their sister or something. So, we need to take you in, if you don’t mind.”He smiled, trying to be sane in all this madness that was going on in his life. As if messing with his company was not enough, they have gone to this extent.First, his wife hired some messed up assassin to take him down. When all he has ever done was love her. All he ever wanted was for her to love him back. Nothing more. But that is what she repays him with.And then they messed with his company and now this.“Listen, sir. I think they have been a misunderstanding here.....” before he could finish up the tall dark one spoke.“Anything you
“What do you think you are doing?” Eliza asked as Natalia locked her up. “I thought you were just messing with me and playing along. Like part of the plan for you to do what I asked you to do. What the hell is the meaning of this, Natalia?” She scolded.“Oh, precious lady. Seriously, woman. What the hell did you think was going to happen when you get involved with an assassin? I kill people for a leaving, woman,” she spoke and turned her back on her. “I need money or I will go hungry to bed. And I can never do that to my beautiful self,” she spoke.“But made you think Trevor will show? What I did to him was worse than everything I have ever said or done to him. He will not show up here to save me. And much less spend money on someone who wanted him died,” she spoke as she looked down.Natalia turned with a smile on her face. “That is what you think. Because sadly, you never got to learn to say what is inside your husband’s heart. How did he ever end up marrying you in the first place?
He sat in a rather dim place. With only one source of light. And they seemed to be no hope inside. But he was trying to hold on to the little hope he was left with.He looked from left to right. Pupils a bit dilated even though he was trying to pretend all was okay. That he got this.But the truth of the matter this was beyond anything he could have ever thought of. This was something he never imagined to happen to him.One day, he was excited that he was now rich and could afford anything he wanted. That no one will ever look down on him. And the next day he was locked up. How was that even possible?Was it a curse or what? Destined to be poor. The moment you have money, some messed up crap happens.Before he could lose himself in thoughts even more, the same police officers that took him in walked in. Smiling.He looked from one to the other. Putting on a rather determined face.“So, here is what will happen. We will ask questions and I expect you to be truthful. This will save both
“Wait, back up a little. You said Mr. Noah helped you to marry her?” Micheal asked.Trevor smiled and took a sip from his coffee. “Yes..” he began. He then went on and told Micheal all about what happened. How he was treated by the family after Mr. Noah died.All the humiliation he went through by his wife’s friends and all her workmates. How Jackson never missed a chance to make sure he felt like he was a good-for-nothing person.How his brothers-in-law treated him and how they beat him up when he went to the company. All he went through he explained to Micheal.The man was just in awe the all time. At some point, his eyes even got watery.Trevor smiled again, “man, it is really nothing. And I need you to be strong for me. I didn’t hire you to break down in court.”“I’m not crying,” he argued.“Whatever. Should I continue or the little miss would want to take a quick break,” he spoke and laughed lightly.Michael’s face actually turned red. “Trevor, I’m happy you are having fun despit
They sat in the living room of the mansion. All are in-laws looking at him. In surprise and in shame. But not grandmother. The woman was just hell bent on accusing him of kidnapping his wife.But the rest seemed to be okay at the moment. Well, not completely, but they didn’t accuse him as she did.“He could have kidnapped her and after seeing we are giving him a hard time, told that mistress of his to bring my granddaughter back,” she spoke, pacing up and down with her stick.He just sat there, not daring to say anything. And he could have done whatever he wanted at this moment. Chase them out of his mansion because, after all, they have done nothing but bother him.But again, they refused to drop the charges. Said they will not believe a word he was telling him. And they will do about anything for him to pay for everything they were accusing him to have done.Micheal looked at him from where he was standing. Silently asking him again why he was tolerating this ungrateful family. But
