Cassandra had told her son of how Cade came to question her. She did not know what Cade was up to with his questions, but she knew it would be no good for her son. Alex was utterly angered by the information from his mother. What was Cade's fucking business in this matter? He knew too, that Cade was up to something. He is always up to something, isn't he? Alex did not want to tell himself the truth: he knew why Cade had interviewed his mother. And even though his mother did not know what reason Cade had come to her for, he could very much tell that Cade knew something he was not supposed to know. And for this, he thought Cade deserved to die. Cade was being too inquisitive, too determined. And Alex knew that if Cade found something new out, Cade would stop at nothing to expose him. "We have to take Cade out. This time, for real and for all." Alex said to his mother while he stomped around the room, pointing his fingers with every word he said. "Calm down, baby," Cassandra pleaded. "
The bullet went through Cade’s left arm and he groaned in pain. His guards immediately stepped forward to apprehend Alex or possibly beat the living daylights out of the boy but once again, they were held back by Cade. “You’re just a spineless bastard, Alex. You can’t beat me and you know it. That’s why you came here to throw a childish tantrum. Did you really think I would be afraid of you just because you brought a gun?” Cade asked and laughed.Alex’s face got red with embarrassment while Cade’s security guards were marvelled by Cade’s bravery and fearlessness. They didn’t understand why Cade didn’t want them to deal with Alex but they respected his decision. Alex was the one who looked weak to them. “Fuck you Cade!” Alex said and ran out of the place.Akex was furious. He hadn’t come there to kill Cade, but he wanted to at least intimidate Cade or make Cade afraid. But Cade had laughed at him and it made him even more furious. Now he wanted to kill Cade by all means but after thi
Cade had not seen Raegan since the incident with Alex. He did not want to bother her with his problems, so he did not reach out to her. But Cade did not know that this decision of his made the lady feel a certain type of way. Raegan did not like it that Cade had not reached out like he promised to. She was expecting his call the next day after their date, but it had been almost a month now since the dinner date her father had arranged and Cade had not called even once. He must have a thing for abandoning people, she told herself. This would make it the second time he was leaving her alone. She did not know it, but she was beginning to yearn for his presence more than she wanted. She wanted him to come around again and sit with her on that pretty little table and have shrimps with her, and look at her like he was longing to kiss her. She wanted the awkward silence and topics they discussed to avoid the murderous awkwardness that grew bigger with every moment of silence they shared. She
Cade had invited Ingrid over to his place while he was still at his mom's. He had scheduled their meeting for today, the day he left his mother's place and back to his own apartment. He hoped the lady would like to be there for what he called ‘a chitchat’ in his mail to her. When the lady reached out to the number he added on the mail, he was sure that she would honour his invitation. So, after the call with Raegan, he got ready and went downstairs to his living room to await his guest. He had the intention of recording the conversation he would have with her too. He reminded himself to begin recording once she came in. It was some minutes past five in the evening. Exactly when he had scheduled the meeting. He sat, watching the news as he waited for the lady. A crime scene was on, and the reporter was talking about a fight that happened in some remote location. But thank God for the cops who accidentally passed through the secluded route, they located the incident and arrested the me
The evening ended on a good note for Cade. Raegan called him as she had said she would. They talked till late into the night and by the time the call was over, both participants smiled themselves to sleep. They agreed on a time for when they would have the movie date suggested by Cade. But Cade kept the location a secret. He wanted to surprise Raegan. They would have the date during the weekend. Cade could not wait. Raegan herself looked forward to it. During the week, Cade got himself busy with work and curating his evidence against Alex meticulously. No iota of information was to be missing from his documentation. He wanted to make sure he had every evidence possible to bring Alex to book. But he would also begin gathering evidence for when Alex and his mother tried to kill him years ago. Cade was not sure which of the men had been in the car with him that day, but he knew it was not Alex's boys. They had been hired just for the purpose of killing him that time. After so many years
Cade and Raegan continued going on dates when they could. Because of their busy schedules, they could only meet twice or three times a week at most, but they spoke everyday on the phone. They made sure to stay away from the public most times so people would not start speculating about their regular meetings. Only their family members knew that they were getting close to each other and that was how they liked it. Raegan’s father was excited, but he was nowhere near excited as Cade’s mother. The night that Cade invited Raegan to his mothers house to have dinner together his mother had cooked enough food to feed half the town. It was after that night that Cade had officaially asked Raegan to be his girlfriend with a grand romantic gesture. Raegan accepted and they agreed to keep their relationship secret. They didn’t want reporters and other nosy people trying to break them apart. But their plan for secrecy was ruined by Raegan’s father. The president was overjoyed to have Cade as a son i
Cade's security staff looked long at the woman standing just outside the apartment building. Cade had his own private elevator to the penthouse suite and the guards stationed there stopped her as she tried to get in through there."Mr Cade is quite busy now and would not want to entertain visitors." The first guard announced. He did not know this woman, and the last incident with Alex had taught him a great deal. He was only lucky that Cade was a kind man, else he would have kissed his job goodbye that day. A reporter had almost deceived them into letting them allow him inside Cade’s apartment that day, it was only because Gale had arrived that the man was discovered as a liar."Please tell him that it's someone he would like to see. I assure you that he will tell you to let me in." Hailey said haughtily.How dare they stop her from going to see her man? When she got married to Cade again, she would make sure to fire all of them.“There is no visitors list today, Ma’am, which means t
With the happenings and events going on with his family – on both sides – Mackenzie had begun to regret his youthful decisions. He was regretting having to leave his wife, Cade's mother, and going to Cassandra. It all started when Lucia, Cade's mother, gave birth to Cade. Before giving birth to their son, Lucia and Mackenzie were in love, even though their marriage was not a love marriage. It was an arranged marriage by the parents of both Lucia and Mackenzie. Mackenzie's father, who was a really wealthy man, thought it would be good if his son got married to the daughter of his rich politician friend, because the friend was the only person richer than him in the country. Then, Mackenzie had been in a relationship with a girl, but at his father's command, he broke up with the girl to be with Lucia Travinsky. Lucia on her part was not told of the arrangement, but her parents kept telling her how much their endorsed spouse for her would treat her well. Now, Lucia was innocent as a dove
