They drove the speed boat back to the seaport, Louise was unconscious and when he woke up he was tied up to a chair.Jason was the first person he saw and the last saw too“Louise Verga” Jason saidLouise mumbled a sound but his mouth was tapped “You caused, I am my family so much pains, this is for my grandfather’s son” Jason shot the gun at Louise leg “Aaaah” Louise shouted in pains, the tape was still in his mouth, so it muffled the sound, even he tried to get up from the chair “This is for my mother” Jason fired the gun at the next leg, then he paced like he was thinking and turned back to Louise “This is for almost killing me” Jason fired the gun at his hand “This is for the pain Tee passed through” he shot his other hand and Louise cried, he was in so much pains “This is for Anthony’s accident” he shot the same armJason refilled the gun while Louise kept crying “This is for my men that you killed” he shot Louise leg again, by this time Louise was losing a lot of blood, Jaso
Where is this useless fellow that calls himself a son-in-law!? Where has he disappeared to again?” From where he stood, Cash Morgan could hear Dame Katrina bellow from the dining area and he shivered to his toes, he couldn't imagine what he must have done this time to warrant her screams. Wanting to avoid further trouble, he hurriedly rushed towards where her voice echoed from, as he got to the dining area, he faltered in his steps at the glare she threw at him, his mother-in-law and father-in-law with some of his other in-laws sat all sneering at him, he shuddered inwards. “I'm sorry grandmother I wa…” “Don't you dare call me that you bastard! I'm not your grandmother” Katrina bellowed angrily as she interjected Cash, looking at him with disdain in her eyes. “I'm sorry Dame Katrina” Lowering his eyes, Cash mumbled instead, Dame Katrina gave a loud hiss in response“He's such a low-life Mother, I wonder what made Grandpa force Vivian into marrying him, he's of no worth” Cassie, hi
Cash was exhausted, following Dame Katrina’s orders of the previous night, he had seen to cleaning the offices of over five of his in-laws, the offices had been in a terrible state, with papers strewn in different areas of the room, coffee stains on the desk and rotting food, it was as like they had all planned to make their office in that state. Wanting to avoid Dame’s wrath, he had thoroughly cleaned all offices, leaving them spick and span. He was left with Vivian’s office, and he had purposely kept it last; saving the best for last. He had a gift for her, a nice bracelet he had been saving for from his meagre salary, he had seen it displayed at a shop window and had instantly imagined it on Vivian’s beautiful wrist. He hoped to God she'd like it, he wanted to give it to her as a peace offering after last night’s incident. He didn't like it when Vivian was angry at him. The urge to please her and give her the gift surged a renewed energy and life into Cash’s former self, and he
Cash stared at her in disbelief, jaw-dropping, his mouth wide open, he could hardly form words to respond to her attack. He was too poor to be manhandling what he truly couldn't afford, ‘but that still doesn't give her the right to talk to you that way!’ his mind taunted him. He moved to talk and defend himself but the next action of the stranger had him swallowing the words while he seethed in anger and embarrassment. The man drew Vivian back into his embrace and placing a sloppy kiss on her lips, finally broke his silence “It's okay baby, some people cannot identify value and luxury even if it's thrown in their faces” while he spoke, he kept his gaze on Cash, and increased his voice, subtly glancing at the door. Following his gaze, Cash slightly turned to look back, and realised he left the door open when he had entered, giving rise to a growing audience in the form of his colleagues and in-laws, at the sight, he hung his head as tears gathered in his eyes. Cash felt utterly hum
The Palmview estate was a popular estate, known and exclusively made and reserved for the very rich and powerful, it was the priciest estate to live in, Lake City. Cash trudged on towards his home, if he could even call the place home, he sneered at himself, and he reluctantly pulled himself towards Kenton’s mansion, which was his residence in the revered Palmview Estate. The Kenton Mansion was situated in the hub of the gated estate of the elites. The mansion was one of the biggest in the estate and easily the prettiest, with its well-kept lawns and garden, as well as a tennis lawn and a swimming pool that ran hot or cold. The house was a humongous beauty, and her occupants knew this. After his walk of shame earlier at the office, Cash had hidden himself in the locker room, loathing himself while unloading the pain and tears in his eyes. He impatiently waited for the close of work to enable him to make his escape and avoid the tauntings of those who had witnessed the face-off, ref
Beside him, Vivian stood with her hand on her waist, her stance daring. Running her free hand through her dark silky hair, she grinned knowingly. Their lackadaisical posture further infuriated Cash, and without thinking or minding his audience, he lashed out“What the hell Vivian!!? You would dare insult and degrade me in public, and still dare to bring the same insult into our matrimonial home!?” he queried while pointing at Justin, his nostrils flaring as he did. Vivian chuckled lightly, eyeing him from head to toe, as though he was of no worth, and gave a long and loud hiss. Squaring her shoulders, with one hand, she gently pulled Justin into her home and shoved Cash aside as they proceeded in. Consumed in his anger and humiliation, Cash dragged her back causing her to stumble, her eyes going wild, momentarily shocked. Without hesitation, she raised her hands and promptly slapped Cash, her clenched fist trembling“How dare you!?”“How dare you lay your filthy hands on my daughter
Shoulders squared, chin held high, and her nose in the air, Dame Katrine Kenton haughtily stepped foot into her living room, a slumped Cash was the first person her eyes rested on and she glowered. Tilting her head away from his form, she rolled her eyes, with her mouth downturned and sneered, muttering underneath her breath“Wretched fool”Swatting at the air, with her lips still downturned, she finally noticed her gathered family, raising her eyebrow, her gaze on Jason her favourite grandchild, she asked no one in particular“What's happening here? What has the fool done again?” she groaned loudlyJason decided to be the mouthpiece of the family, stepping forward, he placed a chaste peck on both her cheeks, before relieving her of her purse and hooking his arm with hers, “Nothing grandma. Only that the fool decided to grow balls and assault Vivian, not only that, he chose to insult us and Vivian’s guest to top it all up” Jason rolled his eyes as he spoke, the drama and Cash’s humil
Cash trudged down the street of the estate, occasionally sighing as he did, cursing his life and the path it chose. His face was caked with tears that had dried from his eyes. Seeing a bench in the distance, he dragged himself towards it, reaching it, he folded his weary body unto it, and slouched on the chair, his head propped in both hands. No matter how much he tried, he couldn't find it in him to cry anymore, even tears, his sole companion had left him. The street was practically deserted with only a few cars driving by. Slouched on the bench, Cash slid his hands into his pocket, to bring out his old and overused phone. He had nowhere to go, but he hoped to God that George, his friend and colleague would be willing to put a roof over his head for the night. Dialling George’s number, he waited as the phone rang at the other end“Hey my man, what's up?” George's voice picked up over the phone. Biting the inside of his cheek, with his head swaying both Cash kept quiet at the sound
