Her ex father-in-law had called for her so it was okay to be here.She sat down on a chair across from him and crossed one leg over the other.“I have a lot on my plate Mr Whitlock, I have no time for further questioning. Please make this quick.” She said, settling into her seat.Mr Whitlock smiled and sat up. He rested his cane beside him and brought out a file which he placed on the table. “Take a look at this Clara.

Her once radiant, colorful life was now washed up and dull, like a faded painting on a canvas.The judge had been merciless, the accusations severe and worthy of grave punishment. The sound of the gavel that sealed the verdict would forever haunt her dreams. It echoed in her head now.She looked over to the corner where he was seated with his lawyer by his side. His face was straight and void of any emotion. It definitely wasn’t the Vincent she used to know, one who had once held her in his arms, made sweet love to her and whispered in her ear how much he loved her.

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 86The box had been left untouched for a week now. He shouldn’t have brought it along but he was curious about the content. Why had he kept his belongings all these years? Was he hoping he would come back for them or had he just concluded that he would not be able to survive on his own and held on to it until he returned. Could it be that he even forgot that his stuff was there in the first place? He even dared to wonder if his father had kept it because he genuinely missed him and wanted to have something to remind him of his son. But that would be a very unlike reason.He entered his room and into his wardrobe. The box was tucked inside it and covered up with the lines of clothes that filled the closet. He thought putting it out of sight would rid thoughts of it from his mind, but his curiosity had remained.He had been surprised when Mr Whitlock had called him over to the mansion.

Neither of them cared where the clothes landed, all they wanted was to rid themselves of anything that stood between both their skins.As the clothes on their body reduced until it became nothing, their lips were locked in a hot sensual kiss that allowed neither of them breathing space.

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 90Clara opened her eyes to a bright, clear- skied morning. The birds were already going about their business, chirping and tweeting happily as they did so. Yellow sun rays dripped through the window pane and white clouds bubbled in the bright blue sky.She turned on the soft bed and pushed down the blanket so she could sit up. She felt her head spin as she sat and drum beats played in her brain. She winced in pain and held on to her head. The weather was good, but she didn’t feel so good.As her eyes adjusted to the room and the throbbing in her head slowed, she looked around in realization that her room looked different, the decor was darker, not as bright colored as it was yesterday. The bed she sat on was bigger and this particular room was bigger than hers. She gazed in awe and confusion.“What the hell happened?

HIS RESURGENCE CHAPTER 91Things did not go as planned. She had thought that after the phone call, everything would be settled and she would have the money. But Mr Whitlock had turned her down.“There’s no guarantee that this plan of yours will succeed, and yet I have spent so much already supporting you. Do you have any idea how much the hotel you’re staying in costs? Why did you have to get drunk and bust someone’s car?”“It was an accident, I didn’t mean for it to happen. Besides, this is an opportunity to get close to Xavier. Please, I need some more money.”“Well, you’re going to have to get it elsewhere. I won’t bear all the cost for this scheme of yours.” He replied and hung up.She sat on the bed and stared at the ceiling as if the money she needed was glued up there. What was she going to do now? There was no one else to call and she couldn’t let this opportunity pass.She had no other choice. She had to do what she swore she would never do, she had to swallow her pride and
