***Roberto's pov***I messaged Gabriel and he walked into my room. He bowed and didn't raise his head."What?" I asked but he didn't say anything."Did anything happen again?" I inquired."I'm sorry sir. I didn't tell you sir. I should have informed you about your mother. I felt it would make you more sad. Your stepmother and ma'am Cynthia tried to kill you,that was enough for you already. I didn't want to add more." He explained."It's fine. I know already and it would have hurt the same way." I eyed him."Call me one of the maids. I need coffee." I ordered and he went off. He came back and stood at his initial position behind the door."I need people from MCB. I need to share some information." I said and he stood for a moment before speaking."That's Diana's field sir. I'm just a bodyguard." He answered and I used my hand to rake my hair back."I know. Then tell her I need to see people from MCB." I said and he went away.***Diana's pov***After Mr Roberto came to my house when he f
***Diana's pov***I went home thinking of Mr Roberto. "How was he faring? How was he feeling at this time? Is he well and alright? Has he eaten?" Those questions kept flooding my mind.I picked up my phone and called the head maid."Hey! Good evening." I greeted."Good evening ma." She replied."Can you please check on Mr Roberto. Has he eaten? Is he asleep already?" I asked."I gave him food some minutes ago but I'll go check if he has eaten them. I'll call you back." She said and dropped the call.I placed my phone on my bed stand so I would hear if she calls back. I laid on my bed and slept off.I woke up the next morning and the first thing I checked was my phone. I didn't see any call from her. "Maybe she forgot." I said to myself. I went to my bathroom and did my daily routine. I applied my face mask which smelt like strawberry. I went to the kitchen and started making my breakfast. I made omlette and placed it on my dinning. I ran back to the living room,took off my mask and q
***Diana pov***I stood still and Mr Roberto looked at me "Take your seat." Mr Roberto sniffed. "Thank you sir." I sat beside him.He connected the flash to his laptop and turned it to Mr Barkley an his associate. I wanted to see what was in the video too. Was it the one of ma'am Audrey calling her in the hospital? "Woah! This is huge." Mr Barkley used his hand to cover his mouth."Yeah. That's why I need MCB." Mr Roberto said."We would do a great job for you sir." Joy said and I stared at her before I took my gaze away."When should we release it? Just give us a date?" Mr Barkley said."As soon as possible. If possible today." Mr Roberto said and I wondered what would be in the video. The volume was reduced when it was been played and it would have been weird if I stood up to check."Okay sir. We surely won't disappoint you." Mr Barkley said."Why haven't you guys been given anything?" Mr Roberto turned to me. His glare made me stand up."What would you like to take sir?" I aske
***Diana's pov***"I don't know what's wrong with the both of them. They should just apologize to each other and move on." I mumbled as I walked outside the house.I boarded a taxi and went home. I grabbed a chilled coke from the fridge and drank some if it."So refreshing." I washed my plates and showered. I stood under the shower for some minutes,letting it wash all of my frustrations away. I came out and grabbed my towel. I dried my body and changed into a pink short and a white shirt.I jumped on my bed and slept off.I heard my phone ring. I opened my eyes and streched before I grabbed my phone. It was Mr Roberto. He had called five times. I suddenly became scared.I called him back."Hi sir. I'm so sorry sir. I missed your call sir." I said."To my house now." He said and dropped the call."What have I done?" I asked myself.I quickly changed into a black pencil trouser and a white shirt. I wore a black shoe and carried a small black purse and inserted some dollar notes and m
***Daniel's pov(Mr Park)***I went to the prison to check on my daughter with the lawyer. I've been hearing rumors of Roberto not being dead. I tried to confirm but I haven't heard anything positive. At least there's a light ahead of my dark tunnel. I got in and waited for her to come out. She was looking so skinny and injured."What's going on? Are you sure you're okay?" I asked. I scanned her body and they were filled with lots of injuries."I'm fine dad. Forget about me. How's it? Are we going to court?" She questioned."I'm hearing news of Roberto being alive. I'm not sure yet but that's what I've been hearing. I tried to confirm but my sources aren't sure too." I answered."If he's alive go beg him for me please. I need to get out of here. I'm dying." She said.I watched as my daughter cried in front of me. She looked so skinny and unkempt. Her hair was unbrushed and scattered."I'm trying my best dear. It's not easy for me too. I've used almost all the money I have to bribe so
***Daniel's pov***"I get the appealing part but begging the Lionels. C'mon. I'm a Park." I said with pride."Then you're not ready to free your daughter. That's the only way sir. They are the most powerful family in America and whatever they say or do goes." He said and I exhaled."I'm tired. Everything is just frustrating. If I go back to that house,I don't know what I'll do to that woman. She's such a shameless pig." I yelled."You need to calm down and take advantage of the situation. If we go for a divorce now,the judge would pity you and we have prove,lots of prove and Rosa isn't your daughter which is a good thing." He said."How about me? Laura isn't her daughter. Won't she counter attack with that?" I asked."She might. When did you have Laura? After marriage?" He inquired."Yes. I had her after marrying Cynthia and I explained to her,it was a mistake." I defended myself."Hmm! She might still be able to get some properties from you. You cheated on her but I'll make sure she
***Roberto's pov***We were all still seated in the living room enjoying the wine and watching television."Wonder how the Parks are handling the situation? Wouldn't it be fun to watch?" I asked and I picked up my phone while the other just watched me. They had curiosity in their eyes. I called Mr Barkley and instructed him."Send many reporters to their house." I ordered "Yes sir." He replied I and dropped the call."Reporters?" Diana asked."Yes. If there are reporters from MCB at their house more would follow and that's what I want." I said."What you want? How brother? I don't understand." Diego questioned."Do you know how embarrassing and humiliating it is for your sex videos to be out on television and internet? I'm doing the same thing they did to me,but the upgraded version." I asked."That's superb. Wish I could see the look on their faces." Diana said as she tuned the television.Videos of reporters at the Parks gates were everywhere while reporters kept reporting and vide
***Gabriel's pov***I went back to Mr Roberto's house and they were still in the living room. I'm happy he's finally getting his revenge and his younger brother is here with him but who's here with me? I've got no one. Even Santiago abandoned me. He promised he's give me some money so I can start up a small business and stop being a bodyguard but that dream has been shattered.I walked in and they noticed my presence."It's about time you came back home." He said and I chuckled."I had to go settle some things sir." I defended."It's fine. You're lucky I'm happy today." He joked and i sat down."The next on my list is Rosa. I have to reveal her identity to the world." He rubbed his hands together and I nodded. Thank God things are going in track. I also can't wait to see the downfall of that evil family."I think we should take things slowly. Let the one boil down on them first." I suggested."I want the heat to kill them. I want to suffocate them. I want to reveal all of their dirty
***Rosa's pov***Getting to the hospital,mom was rushed into the ward and was attended to immediately. Dad was pacing to and fro scared of what the doctor would come and say. "Nothing much happen to her." I said."I know and I regret pushing her. It was a mistake." He bit his upper lip.Few minutes later,the doctor came to meet us."Are you her husband sir?" He asked and my dad nodded."Let's talk privately."I held my dad's hand."You talk here. I'm her daughter and he was the one who caused this in the first place." I glared at him."Shut it Rosa! It was a mistake." He corrected. "Well,she has stroke now. A side of her brain was affected so the left side of her body is paralyzed." He announced."What? Look at what you did to her?" I yelled. I wanted to hit him but we were in public."Will she be fine?" I asked."Maybe. It's a 50_50%. She could get better or worse." He said and I shaked my head."I hope she'll be alright. Even though I and my mom quarrel a lot,I wouldn't want her
***Roberto's pov***"What's my business with Roberto? What sort of madness is this?" Her screamed echoed in the room."You threatened you'd do something to Gabriel. Well we can't find him." I yelled back throwing my hands in the air dramatically."I was just joking. It was just a threat. Why would I kidnap Gabriel? What use would it be for me?" She dropped her spoon."Son! That accusation is just too much. Have you reported to the police?" I eyed him and he cleared his throat."I know you'll always support her. You've been blinded by her. I'll leave and I'm going straight to the station. If I find out she has a hand in this,I'll make sure she rots in jail." I said and was about to leave when my father held my arm."And if she's not guilty what would you do? I've told you to stop accusing her for whatever thing that happens to you. You're the one who's blinded by your ego and your sadistic thoughts. Why would Gabriel get missing and the first person you think of is your step mom?"I ya
***Rosa's pov***"Where? How? How did you find them? Tell me!" I demanded."Calm down. I only got to know the location. Besides we can't go get them. It would be too dangerous." She said and I hissed."Just give me the address and I'll do the rest myself." "Just be careful. Mr Roberto's security is always tight and if he finds out you're the one,you're a goner." She said and i laughed."If I'm a goner then you'll be what? Just send me the address and spare me the cock and bull story." I said and dropped the call.Minutes later,I got a message from Diana. The address of where Laura kids are is with me. I can finally get what I want from Laura.I can't wait to control all of these properties. I stood up and turned around,taking a view of my room.Can't wait to see the look on my father's face when I snatch all of his properties from him.The only problem I have now is to hire some men to help me get those children. What do I even need them for? All I need is a video of them,just to con
***Gabriel's pov***I sneaked out of the office knowing Mr Roberto wouldn't need me soon. I received t a call an unknown number asking me to come meet at the hospital where Alice's father has been hospitalized. I got there and it was Christian,Alice's younger brother. He raised his hand,signalling me to come in."Why would he call me here considering the fact that he hates me so much." I asked myself. We've even beaten each other once.He placed his hand on my shoulder."Hey bro." He said and started walking out of the hospital. "What's going on? Where are we headed?" I asked but he smiled.I should tell you but Alice would kill me if I utter a single word."I've told Alice I'm no longer interested in this relationship. Why would she try to surprise me?" I yelled."Just calm down. I know my family has hurt you in so many ways. Just take this as a sorry." He smiled and opened the car for me. The bodyguards standing outside cladded in all black suits were just so intimidating. I'm a bo
***Diana's pov***I get he wants to take his revenge but this is just evil. How could he separate those children from their mother? How could he do such a thing to them? I wonder how those kids would feel like now. I clenched my fist as I walked towards them."Diana! Where have you been? Couldn't go on lunch break because of you. We were supposed to work on this together." Olivia banged the file on the table. i could see the happiness in her eyes."Quit lying. You never asked me to work on any file with you. If you want Mr Roberto to like you,you're doing a great job." I folded my arms."What's wrong with you? Don't you know you're in the office? I told you I don't want any personal shit here?" He yelled at me.I wanted to defend myself but he spoke over me."I'm not interested in you. I don't like you. I'm only keeping you here because you've been of great help. This is the last straw Diana,the next one will be the end." He said and walked out of the office.I felt hurt. I felt a ver
***Rosa's pov***"Let's meet at Deemarks restaurant by two." I said."Sure. Please make it on time. I've got lots of work to do." She replied and i nodded as if she could see me.I dropped the call and raised my clenched fist up in the air. "Yes. Finally something to take Roberto down. I want him to beg at my feet. I want him to beg for mercy." I smiled as the thought of me ruining Roberto made me smile.I couldn't wait to hear what she has to say. I left all the things I was doing and rushed to the restaurant. I sat down and the waitress handed the menu over to me.I glanced at the menu as they had lots of good food and drinks but my mind kept pondering,thinking of the good news Diana has to give me. The restaurant looked every nice. Nice artworks hanging on the wall,comfy chairs which were arranged in rows,good lightening and great customer care.I kept tapping my left foot against the floor,anxious and nervous at the same time,checking the entrance to see if Diana was approaching
***Cynthia's pov***"The issue must have died down. I'm going out." I eyed Rosa."Mum? I'm telling you people don't forget things like this. Don't go out. It's dangerous and it can affect stocks and shares at the company. The corporation is at the verge of dying." She begged."What's your business? I need to go for shopping. It's very important." I yelled as i walked out on her. I got into the car and drove off to the mall. I got down and I saw the glances and murmuring. I waved it off thinking it wasn't that much. I locked the car and took a few steps and people started taking my pictures and laughing at me.Soon it became like a protest,they started calling me names like slut,pig etc and I was embarrassed.I ran back to my car with so much difficulty as some people decided to be violent and started hitting me.I got to my car and drove back home. I got into the compound and my body was red and swollen. They all hurt. Sone were itchy while some were burning."Didn't I warn you?" Ro
***Roberto's pov***After the clash with my dad,I've been keeping tabs on my stepmother. I just need to find something to use on her. Anything!Diana has been behaving strange especially with Olivia. I know she had told me countless times how much she loves me but I don't need a distraction and that doesn't mean she should hate on Olivia.If not for the friendship between us and how she stood by me when I had nobody I would have sacked her. I hate how unprofessional she's been."Sir! Meeting in five minutes. The members are here sir." Olivia informed. I searched around for Diana but she was no where to be found.This is what she's supposed to be doing but she's busy grumbling and acting jealous. Olivia has been the one doing all of the work.After the meeting,I went to my office to rest and Gabriel walked in."What is it again?" I asked them yawned."I just want to talk about Diana sir." He said and I turned to face him."If it's about her loving me please just forget about it. I'm so
***Rosa's pov***Watching mom try to make dad fall in with with her again was so annoying to watching. It made me cringe whenever she tried to seduce him. When I say seduce,I mean her using old stupid tricks like throwing the remote on the floor and bending to pick it while wearing a short seductive dress,I mean that's so disgusting considering they are your parent."Just get the fuck away from me. I'm trying to watch tv." My dad yelled as he left the living room."Wait up Daniel. I know you want this. Don't be shy." Mom said and she ran towards him.This is so embarrassing. I know she doesn't love him. She just wants him to change his mind against the divorce.All I want is for mom to steal shares or the company. That's all I want. I need to see Laura. She knows all of dad's password. If I can blackmail her with something or threaten her,she can tell me."What can I blackmail her with? She's in jail. Shes got nothing else to lose anymore." I bit my lower lip as I paced round the room
