Chris was taken aback and frowned his lips staring at Aria who had a confused gaze. "Please don't say that my love." Chris pleaded while holding onto her hand tightly. "Don't forget all the time we had loved each other." "I'm sorry to disappoint you but I can't recall anything from my past." Aria shrugged her shoulders, almost seeming irritated that he continued to pester her. "Even if you don't remember them I can create new ones with you." Chris smiled warmly at her hoping she would agree with him. Kade stands up and stays behind Chris with his lips frowned. "Sorry big bro." Hearing his voice alone was enough to irritate Chris who sprung up from where he sat, turning around to glare at him. "Don't you dare act as though you're innocent, when I know the kind of person you are!" He was furious and curled his fists ready to blow his face that looked innocent yet had a deceitful gaze in his eyes. "But I didn't do anything, big brother." Kade pouted his lips taking a step back in
"Don't you like here?" Chris asked while smiling at his wife as she gazed at the house in awe."It's beautiful, I must say, but it doesn't suit you." She shrugged her shoulders while feeling the soft touch of the fur sofa."Doesn't suit me?" He tilted his brows at her in surprise. "You were the one who did the entire interior.""Shows how much taste I had…. Splendid." She flipped her hair teasing him and continued to walk around the living room, the walls were blank and the atmosphere was sullen which didn't sit right with her as she continued to explore."What else do you want to complain about?" Chris asked walking towards her and stopped when he saw what had attracted her attention. Her brows arched as she slowly reached between the shattered pieces of glass on the floor and picked up the picture that was almost ripped apart but before she could see who it was, he snatched it from her hand."There's no need for you to see that."She turned to look at him with a blank stare wonderin
Chris held his fave in pain and stared at her in shock. "Why are you hurting him?" "Why do you have to hurt him for some soup?" She yelled at him again. "Why take unnecessary anger on him." "He did it intentionally just to gain attention, if not why would I hit him that way?" Chris frowned his lips and gazed at her in shock, he was more than disappointed that she chose Kade over him which made his heart bleed."You're only piswed off that he's here with us and tryin' to be a good person, I may not recollect my memories but I can tell he's good." Aria defended Kade while helping him up."Good?" Chris chuckled nervously recalling the time Aria got kidnapped. "You're kidding me, right? The reason you're in his state is because of him!""I don't care, Chris!" She snapped at him, yanking him but the collar, and frowned. " You ought to be better than this bit You decided to stoop so low to bully an innocent man.""Innocent?" Chris tilted his head and from the corner of his eyes, he saw Ka
Chris stared at Aria in confusion as she shoved the paper in his face, he took it and stated at it seeing it was their divorced papers."Where did you get this from?" Chris asked her."Why do you care where I got it from huh? I just came here today and now I'm finding out how dubious you are." She raised her voice."There's no reason to raise your voice honey." Chris tried to pacify her bit she was still filled with anger, wondering if he was truly who he said he was. "It's all a misunderstanding that we can easily discuss without yelling at one another.""Don't try to act smart with me and tall me the whole truth." Aria demanded, folding her arms on her chest and tappng her feet on the ground waiting for him to say something."Have this first." He handed her the water which she reluctantly took from him and gulped down.Chris sighed and pulled a chair for both of them to sit down, Aria crossed her legs and furrowed her brows waiting go him to speak up."It's true we bother divorced A
Briella locked herself inside her room moving away from the door and placed her hand over her mouth to muffle the sound she was making. "Come out darling, why didn't we have a little fun?" The man snickered as he tapped coldly on the door. Briella's heart skipped as she looked away from the door searching for anything that could help her out of the situation she found herself in. She couldn't call anyone since her phone was no longer with her. "God please help me." She cried in a whisper hoping the man would pass the room she was in and she could find a chance to escape. She turned towards the door but didn't see his shadow there, she felt a sense of relief a bit at the same time she wondered where he could have gone to. She turned back to the window, opened it, and let the strong wind into the room. The rain was still pouring violently and she wondered if she could make a jump and run away. This was the only chance to escape from a serial killer. She climbed up the window and was
The knock on the door gained the attention of both Aria and Chris who wrote cuddled on the couch, Chris tilted his brows wondering who it was that had come to the house since he hardly ever had any visitors. "Who could that be?" Aria questioned unwrapping herself from his grip, Chris shrugged and stood up from the couch to see who it was, Aria stood up to follow him which he was against almost immediately."There's no need to come along, I'll go see who it is while you continue watching the movie." Chris placed a kiss on her forehead watching her seat before making his way to the door, his friend heard the doorbell again and checked the camera to see who it was that was ringing his doorbell so hot in the afternoon. He hesitated when he saw it was Melissa and wondered what she was doing in his home, he quickly opened the door and pulled her further away from the house with a horrified gaze."What are you doing here?" He frowned his lips glaring at her but Melissa wasn't at all pressu
Chris walked into the house and stopped when he saw Aria being spoonfed by Kade, his fist clenched watching both of them and pursed his lips. Aria was the first to notice he was back and smiled at him."Welcome back Chris." The tone of her voice gave a cold demeanor that made him feel dejected."What are you two doing?" He cut to the chase and strode towards them collecting the bowl of popcorn in Kade's hand."You didn't have to be such a bummer!" Aria frowned her lips gazing at him in irritation. "We were watching a movie and you just spoilt it for us." She whined."Are you crazy?!" Chris raised his voice in anger grabbing Aria by her wrist which frightened her for a second before she composed herself and struggled to get free from his grasp. "What do you think you're trying to do?" "What am I doing?" She scoffed, staring him straight in the eye, and frowned. "You should be the one asking that question.""Aria…" He sighed staring up at the ceiling in frustration. "Just what do you w
Melissa stopped her car and parked at the corner of the street while putting on her shades and got out of the car. She looked around the area before walking towards the house with a hat on her head to conceal her identity even more.She got to the doorstep when she heard footsteps behind her and instantly turned to see who it was and widened her eyes, she bent her head slightly lower and adjusted her shades."What are you doing here, miss?" The officer asked trying to get a glimpse of her face but she didn't let him."Came to pay a visit to my cousin who lives here, is there an issue?" Melissa asked hoping the officer would leave her alone soon enough."Really? But they aren't home." He eyed her suspiciously and took a few steps closer to her."Well, I do have a spare key…. You see she had told me that she and her husband won't be home." Melissa finally looked up at him with a small smile on her lips. "Is there any other thing you need to know?" She tilted her head to the side while s
The morning dawned with a delicate shine of sunlight, promising warmth for that day. The sunlight peered through the curtains casting a soft glow on Melissa's face as she slept. Gradually sensing the heat and bright light from the sun, she blinked her eyes open, adjusting herself into a comfortable position on the bed. The space beside her was empty, Chris nowhere in sight. "Maybe he's working in his study." She muttered to herself, trying to sit upright. Chris now worked from home because of Melissa. He wanted to make sure that she never got to stress herself during the last few months of her pregnancy, and that he was always there whenever she needed him. He only went to the office if the situation needed itTwisting her neck sideways to relieve them of it's stiffness, her hand instantly went to her protruding belly, rubbing gentle circles around them as a smile played on her lips. It felt like yesterday when they were unsure of their love, but now a year had passed. Gradually
Melissa stared at her wedding gown with joy plastered on her face. She had begun preparing for her wedding and was more than excited, she had asked her friend Daphne to come help her out in choosing her wedding gowns since she could not make up her mind.Cnrid had recommended that we go to a luxury "Isn't this perfect?" She turned around to ask her friend Daphne."Sure, it suits your sling but I feel it may be too heavy for you to move around," Daphne suggested while staring at the dress. "Why not try another?"The staff beside them pointed to a series of other options to choose from but Melissa was confused and didn't know which one to take."Have you found the one you like?" Chris's voice erupted in the room and they turned to gaze at him. Melissa gazed at him illuminating her face with a smile, she walked towards him and embraced him in a warm hug."Not yet, I still haven't made up my mind on which one to choose." She pouted her lips gazing at the numerous gowns available. "Why do
Chris had taken Melissa on a vacation trip so they could enjoy their moment together and get to know each other more. He also took it as a time for her to take a break from all the stress that had happened to her."Aren't these gifts a little too much?" Melissa pouted gaznng at the mirror admiring the silver dress he had bought for her."You deserve the world honey don't worry too much about the worth of the gift I'm giving you, after all the most expensive thing you've given me is your heart and my money can't be enough to buy that," Chris said as he caressed her lips placing a kiss on it."Don't flatter me." She looked away shyly, he gently pulled her close to him and looked away and gazed at her."I mean every word I tell you…. Don't for once doubt it." He leaned on her chest and smiled. "I love you too much to play with your heart."."What do you think about going out for dinner later this evening?" He asked gazing at her curiously. "It's okay if you don't feel like it." He added.
Weeks had passed since the whole incident and Chris was finally getting better although had to walk around with a walking stick to aid his movement, on the other hand, Melissa was still admitted to the hospital and still unconscious.It had saddened him to know that she lost the child but thankfully she was still alive. Chris walked into the ward with fresh flowers to put in her room so she could have a nicely scented room."Good morning princess." He smiled at Melissa laying in the bed and the only thing he got back was the beeping machine noises that assured him she was right.He walked towards the flower vase replaced the old ones with the new ones he had just brought and walked to the chair to sit beside Melissa's bed. "Wale up soon okay?" He gently lifted her hand and placed a gentle kiss on it. Her skin had gotten paler and when he had brought it to the doctor's concern, he was told that it was because she was still unconscious and when she woke up, she would get back to herself
"What?" Melissa was stunned to see Aria and glanced at Chris."She's with Alex." He forced out the words and gazed at Melissa."Such a whore." She mumbled and pulled out a gun from her pocket aiming at Aria."You have a death wish, don't you? Stooping so low that you spread your legs for every man you see.""What the hell do you know about me huh?" Aria lashed out."I know that you're a whore, that's for certain." Melissa shrugged her shoulders, Chris had finally noticed the way Melissa dressed as an officer and tilted their head wondering if he was making things up."Why are you wearing this?" Chris asked her curiously."Long story short I'm an investigator." She gave him a quick smile before gazing at Aria who was also shocked at the discovery."So all this while you used working with him as a cover-up?" Aria smirked. "Wouldn't it be shameful if they knew how you got pregnant?""That is none of your concern!" Chris raised his voice at Aria."Don't you dare raise your voice at me!" S
"Ya'll better start talking or I'm about to pry you all open." He threatened pulling out a gun from the back of his trouser. "What the hell is she here?" He asked referring to Aria who was glaring at him furiously."You seem quite energetic for the day but I'm afraid you're interrupting a heart-warming scene," Alex smirked."Aria come here right now," Kade ordered her but she stood firmly in the ground."Who do you think you're talking to honey" Sir folded her hand on her chest and smiled, Kade was somewhat taken aback, he could sense a change in her and wondered why she had behaved like this all of a sudden. "You had better watch that mouth of yours.""Just what do you mean by that?" Kade demanded, he was furious. "Are you still going to choose that bastard over me?" He pointed to Chris who remained quiet and hung his head low."I doubt that is the situation here." She threw herself onto Alex and smiled."You better get away from her or I will blast your head off." Kade threatened hi
Several days had passed and Chris hadn't heard from his brother or had anything to eat, he was slowly losing his mind and the smell of blood enveloping the room picked him so much."It's been a while." Alex's voice erupted in the room and he the door creaked open, Chris struggled to lift his head and gazed at him."He needs treatment." He turned to Marcus who was laying weakly on the floor. "He has nothing to do with this, why does he have to suffer?" "You seem quite healthy for someone how head starved." Alex lit up a cigarette gazing at Chris coldly. "Answer me!" Chris demanded but Alex still wasn't bothered by his question."I'm slowly going to drive you to insanity to the point where you would beg me to end your life but I would not," Alec said, puffing the smoke in Chris' face and laughing. "You should see your face right now.""You psycho!""Well then, why didn't I invite a very special guest huh?" He whispered into Chris' ear.Chris couldn't help but wonder who it could be an
"How can it be?" Chris gasped. "You… died.""Well as you can see it's my spirit taking revenge on you." Alex laughed sarcasticallyChris was still in shock and hadn't recovered, he recalled that after that incident he was been blamed for the death of his step brother who couldn't be found, and was taken to his grandmother's place to live till he grew up and had never heard from his parents because they had cut him off."You faked your death?" Chris gazed at him in annoyance."How could you do such a thing to me?" Alex pouted his lips looking like a maniac."I never intended to do so, but now that I think of it I should have pushed you harder so that you would truly die." Chris stared at him waiting for some sort of explanation. "So you're telling me because of a little incident you caused this chaos?"The ringing of Alex's erupted the room and he turned around walking out of the room without any more words. Chris turned his gaze to Marcus who was still unconscious and frowned.Melissa
The cold freezing water flowing down Chris' body caused him to jerk up up I'm shock, panting as he tried to catch his breath and survey his unfamiliar surroundings."Wake up Prince Charming." He heard a familiar voice echo in his ear, he gazed at the man standing in front of him dressed in an all-black attire that gave off chilly vibes. "I don't have the entire day to wait for you."Chris winced in pain gazing at the man who hit him, his entire body ached and he felt intense pain in his head as warm liquid seeped out."Who are you?" Chris asked glaring at him."What are you so keen to know who I am since you would be dying here?" "At least I remember you once I'm out of here and you're six foots under…. Sorry, I forgot no one would be burying you." Chris chuckled amidst the intense pain he was feeling."You haven't changed have you?""You know it's bad manners not to introduce yourself." Chris frowned at him trying to get a view of his fave behind the mask and suddenly felt a sense o
