"Won't it be okay if you invited me in?" Melissa tilted her brows staring at Chris who didn't want her in but had no other option to let her inside."Do you suddenly want to apologize out of the blue?" He tilted his head gazing at her."I have no reason to apologize for anything." She shrugged her shoulders with a smug look on her face, she gently sat on the couch feeling the soft touch with her hand, and turned to Chris. "Have something hot for me to drink?" "Tell me why you're here and leave immediately." He frowned hating her presence already, to think it would be his Aria made him more annoyed."I'll take that as a no." she smiled at him and turned her gaze to the bag. "I have something important to discuss with you." She began."The baby died?" He guessed, her lips parted open and a disappointed gaze shown on her face."Don't flatter yourself, aren't you happy to be a father?" She scoffed trying to hide the sadness she felt by his words."Then why else would you be here?" He til
She didn't have any hope to hold in to mad stood up from the chair about to leave when they both heard the doorbell ring, Chris frowned in frustration wondering who it was this time, he stood up from the couch and made his way to door opening it and stared at the man who looked perplex and at the same time confused."Who are you?" Chris asked scrunching his brows and gazing at him. The man was wearing a black t-shirt and pants with his hair Hung on his shoulders. He was a little paler and had a mole on his face."Are you Mr. Chris?" The man asked ignoring Chris' initial question which annoyed him."Find him at the next house." He shrugged his shoulders and was about to close the door when the man stretched out his hands."Please it's really important that I talk to you." The man pleaded hoping Cnros would be calm and listen to him."I have no idea who you are and I'm asking that you leave quietly right away or you will regret it." Chris threatened he had had enough for the morning."H
Bricks tilted his head staring intensely at the picture and frowned. "I shouldn't have let her go alone but she insisted." His voice quivered and he sounded as though he was going to break down in tears."What do you mean?" Melissa asked curiously."After the accident, she was scared that her husband would figure out what she had done and decided to stay with me." He explained but more questions popped into her head that needed answers and she wasn't going to relent in asking."And what did she do if I may ask?" Melissa sked tilting her brows as she rubbed her chin staring with maximum concentration at his lip."I'm not supposed to reveal but since she's dead it doesn't matter." He shrugged his shoulder and stared at Melissa. "She… she had caused the accident…" he trailed off, Melissa gasped and Chris was overwhelmed with a shock that Briella did such, he wasn't quite surprised she could do such a thing since she was the one who tried to trick him one time using another lady to substi
Earlier that morning.Aria had continuously feared for her life noticing how he continually stared at her making her feel uncomfortable and she didn't want to say anything out of the ordinary that would make her seem suspicious or that she knew what he had done."What are you making for breakfast?" She turned away from the dresser mirror to gaze at him."Anything you would like?" He threw her another question with furrowed brows, his hands were in the pockets of his hoodie as he gazed at her."Something fresh." She shrugged wanting nothing more than him leaving her alone. "Just surprise me." She forced a genuine smile on her face while gazing at him."Let's see how it goes." He shrugged his shoulders. " I might have to go for a little hunt." He stared at her for consent and her body went cold just thinking of what she was to do."You know what? Just prepare me something already in the kitchen." She suggested, just thinking of him preparing human flesh irritated her as she believed he
Aria was quietly staring out the window staring at the scenery of the trees whooshing as Chris drove. "Did he hurt you?" "Not at all." She mumbled staring down at her lap silently as she fiddled her fingers. "I just wanted to take a break from him, that's all." Chris didn't believe her words and wanted to know more about what had caused her to be this frightened. "It's okay to tell me, honey, I'm here for you." Chris held her palm still focused on the road as he was soothing her. She stared up at him, having a sad expression on her face as well as a frightened gaze. Chris considered her silence and decided to drive silently until they got home, she got out of the car and walked into the house slumping on the couch in relief, the heavy weight on her chest had been lifted and she felt a lot safer. "Want something to drink?" Chris asked tucking his keys into his pocket and made his way to the kitchen took out a can of soda and walked back to the living room handing it to her. "Th
Chris had continued to search for information about Briella that could make him expose Kade without getting involved in the whole drama."Here it is sir." His assistant Marcus handed him over a file. Chris stopped what he was doing and took the file, he opened it and saw some photos fall out, he tilted his head and picked them up staring at them."I was able to find her parent's home and saw some photos of her while she was younger," Marcus explained, in the photo, Briella looked in her teens and was in a shabby home, although she looked different from what he knew her as she didn't look different."You can leave, I'll call you later… also move my appointment to the next two hours," Chris ordered Marcus who nodded and left. Aria sat in the corner of his office silently staring at nothing while lost in thoughts.Marcus turned away and left while Chris continued to go through the file finding every detail about Briella who was introduced to Kade by his mother for him to get married to h
"What the hell is going on?" Chris mumbled just then Marcus walked into his office with a worried gaze on his face, Chris could tell it was about the situation going on."Sir there's an issue." Marcus began."Why would they do that without considering factors?" Chris banged his desk with his hands in fury, "I have tried contacting the director but no one is giving me feedback," Marcus explained, Chris turned to his wife Aria, and frowned."I'm not sure if your position is still valid in that company but you were a manager before the accident, is there a way you could help out?" He asked Aria who was still processing what was happening."Well, I could try to do so right?" She shrugged her shoulders and Chris nodded."I feel that this could be Kade warning us not to do anything funny." Melissa sat down and crossed her legs gazing at Chris. "I hand sent someone to find him at his house but he's no longer there.""Seems he found out we already knew." Chris gritted his teeth. "What do you
"What nonsense, who sent this?" Chris mumbles still in shock while staring at the camera in his office. "Are you trying to pin it on me when you early know that there is evidence pointing that you had done what you did?" Chris frowned and stared into the box again.This time he saw the entire content and stared puzzled, why was there a goddammer in here? He also noticed a note that must have been left for him and picked it up in the hope of knowing who had sent the package.It had a smiley face and nothing more on it which made him more puzzled I'd this was delivered to the right place or if there was a setup going on, whichever the case he would need to take this out of his presence and attend to more important situations. He closed the box and put it in a corner when he received a message on his phone from an unknown number, he stared at it skeptically before opening the message to see who it was, he saw there was a video attached to it and furrowed his brows hesitantly clicking on
