"Where is my wife?" Chris asked as he barged into the room where the nurses had informed him to enter, he had a worried gaze and his palm sweaty that something had happened to her.

She had a doctor check if she was okay before mocking her eyes with Chris who gazed at her with both a worried gaze and s lustful gaze.

"I can assure you that she is fine and you didn't need to bother too much." The doctor told Chris who nodded in happiness wanting nothing more than to hold Aria.

"Chris." He heard Aria call his name and immediately walked to her.

"Are you okay?" He tilted his head. "What caused you to pass out?"

"I'm fine there's no need to panic, my head just hurts a little." She chuckled at the expression he was making.

Oh." He mumbled caressing her face and staring into her eyes wanting to kiss her already but she had thought about that before him,

she yanked him by the collar and pulled him close to her making their lips touch, she wasn't going to stop there as she exchanged saliva with

    "Do whatever you think is possible to bring me down. I didn't care but be sure that I would pull you down with me." Kade threatened him which made Chris angry but tried hard not to show it in his tone."You think you can do that?" He chuckled, diminishing the courage Kade had initially mustered. "After murdering your wife?""Well then do what you must… I fear nothing." Kade said. "You know quite well what you're going to lose right?" "Listen." Kade implored him. "Although both companies are still in a faulty partnership, if anyone makes a wrong move both would be affected.""Your company did that and I'm taking a fall for it," Chris emphasized. "That is why you would have to make everything right or face the consequences.""Threatening me would make no difference." Kade chuckled darkly. "If you want to play that card then I can boldly say I have a trick up my sleeves."Trick up his sleeves? What crazy plan does he have right now?" Chris wondered and concluded that Kade was probably s

    "Ari, stop saying all of this." Chris pulled her in a hug, rubbing her hair gently. "I know you didn't mean what you are saying." Aria shut her eyes as she sniffed her nose, she felt guilty about the chaos because it was caused by Kade. "What the hell makes you think that leaving would make it all better?" "I just think so.""Didn't ever say that honey, I belong to you and don't want to ever leave your side." Chris pleaded lifting her chin for her to see him. "Don't leave me please."The scent of food buying snapped them out of their delusional state as they quickly responded to the food before the smoke alarm went off and drained them.They burst out laughing at each other relieving the tense air that had once consumed them."You seem to have constant calls today." Aria noticed and pointed out to Chris whose phone was seated on the island in the middle of the kitchen, Chris nodded nervously and shoved his phone into his pocket."Honey?" "If something you didn't like happens you d

    Chris strode towards her when she didn't respond to his question and swiped away her phone to see what she was referring to, his mouth gaped open in shock."How… how did this happen?" Chris asked her. "Does someone else know about the footage?" "Besides Bricks and Aria, I didn't think anyone knows." Melissa shrugged her shoulders immediately taking a seat on one of the couches, Chris tapped his foot impatiently as he leaned on the table thinking of how this had all come about."We're not done fixing one and then another arises," Melissa mumbled in frustration, she turned her head to Cnris and frowned."Do you think he knew about the footage and decided to release them himself?""I didn't think that would be the situation, if he planned on doing that then why wouldn't he destroy the CCTV footage after murdering her?" Chris thought out loud."What then are you insinuating?" Melissa questioned still processing what he was saying."I'm saying there's someone else." He concluded and just

He questioned walking towards his deand sk sitting down, he nodded at Marcus to leave and continued speaking with him. Mr Bricks."Well it's not something I can speak to you on the phone, could we meet somewhere and talk?" The old man suggested but Chris wasn't about to give in, associating with a murderer's family could be bad for his company, and would not want to be in the public's bad eye again."I don't think that would be possible, you are quite aware of what your son has done and yet you want us to meet?" Chris frowned leaning further into the chair, he gazed at the ceiling at sighed. "I can't put my business at risk just to see you.""I have an off that hat you won't hesitate to grab." He quickly said before Chris could end the call which grabbed his attention."And what is that?" Chris seemed to be invested in it but h

    "I don't know him, I have never seen his face because he always put on a mask." The man explained but the story didn't add up and it was unbelievable even to a little child."So you're telling me a masked man asked you to meet my wife and you did?" Chris growled punching the man in the belly."You won't understand sir, just believe me." He pleaded. "Besides you shouldn't be too protective of her if everyone already had a taste of her."That was it…. The final strike to make Chris get annoyed, he punched him constantly until his face got bloodied and Aria came to stop him before it could get worse and people were beginning to circle them."It's enough now." Her face was full of worry and he could tell just how scared she was, he pulled her into a hug assuring her that she was okay."Are you sure you would be able to drive to work?" Chris asked her noticing how jittery she was."Yes, I can." She nodded pulling. away gr him so as not to let the lood soil her clothes. "You should clean of

    "Fucking bastard!" Kade hissed in pain as Bricks retreated and ran away before the officers could get him, Kade was quickly rushed to the hospital for treatment and thankfully it was a minor injury. Chris on the other hand was focused on finding who the man who texted him was, he kept feeling uneasy this morning about what next he was going to do.Weeks had passed and he was now in the psychiatric ward bored with absolutely nothing to do, he stared at his palm while quietly seated on the bed, everything in the room was an anti-suicide and would prevent him from hurting himself which he desperately wanted to do.He scratched his arm until it turned red and stopped only when a nurse got into his room to check up on him"Hey, Kade." She smiled at him with a tray of food while gazing at him which he disliked so much, it reminded him of Briella and it was her who put him in this situation. He turned his face away from her and stared right outside the window unwilling to do anything but be

    "What do you mean he's no longer there?" He yelled angrily. "How can you explain how he left without anyone noticing, weren't there any guards on duty?" MR Bricks snapped in anger banging the desk in front of him and ended the call immediately.He sat on the chair and sighed in frustration, there was a protest currently going on about Kade not being sentenced to life imprisonment, if the court found out about Kade escaping the psychiatric home, his punishment would only get worse and he may not be able to help him out anymore."Why was I cursed with a stupid child?" He whined in pain. If his son wanted to destroy himself then he would have to do it himself.Mr Bricks had thought that Kade being in the psychiatric home would give him time to recover the company losses but as it is, he could see his company crumbling down.He immediately dialed a number and placed his phone on his ear while sipping his vodka and gazing at the family photo on the wall with a grim look on his face."I hav

The person answered through the phone."How dare you not do your job well?" Mr Bricks yelled. "I asked you to end him yet you couldn't put a bullet in the lunatic's head.""I'm sorry sir, I would find him and end him." The man said and ended the call. Mr Bricks scattered the file on his desk I'm frustrated and broke anything he could just to ease the frustration he was feeling."What is the issue this time?" His wife barged into the room with the cup of tea he had requested, she stared with a worried look at the files scattered around."That insane son of yours wants to kill me!" He yelled."Don't say something like that.""Didn't you dare act coy with me when you know how stupid he is!""Don't blame me for his behavior!"

    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

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."

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."

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."

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
