Blake grunted as his skirt raised himself from the floor, his body ached in pain as he snapped his head looking around for Michael but he was nowhere in sight.“That lunatic!” He huffed in anger and frustration as he gazed at the door curling his fists in anger. “Once I get a hold of him. I’ll make sure he doesn’t see the light of day.“There’s no way I’m going to let this criminal roam Scott free, I’ll let the police know about this and send him to jail.” Alice frowned.“Of course, we can’t let him continue to take advantage of us this way.” Talia agreed to it.“I’ll make sure he tots in jail because that’s where people need to be.” Emily folded her hands on her chest as they made their way to the bed where Lucy was lying, she fluttered her eyes open while gazing at her mom in shock.“Mom you’re here?” She didn’t seem to have expected her to come here.“Your assistant Ayra called and told us that you might be in danger so we had to come here as quickly as we if not Michael would hav
Fredrick's POV (flashback)You would think I had the perfect life. I sit here listening to the Chief of Police talk about how he thinks I have some sort of intel on the recent high grade robberies that had been ongoing for the past two years. He looks nervous, sweat forming clear beads on his forehead. He is afraid of me and he has every right to be. I had been humiliated by my ex wife, in revenge I had brought her entire family's enterprise toppling to the ground. This had given me some sort of fear and respect with the big sharks in the corporate industry. The Chief of Police was finally done speaking."So uhm, Mr…", I stared at his badge long enough for him to feel uncomfortable."Mr Crawford, I have no idea where your criminals might be neither do I know where to find them if I wanted to help you out with this. I have important buisness to get to, Is there any other reason why you're here?"His double chin wobbled while I watched him decide on what next to say. If he wanted to ge
Raya's I didn't think I had done the right thing. Of course father had always warned me about one night stands and how it would be a stain on the Perot reputation for ages, same as nudes, leaked sex tapes and basically everything that involved multiple strange people tagging the Perot company social media handles. Well, I finally broke one of my father's rules and look where it led me. Standing over my husband and his red head secretary who was always giving out smiles like gift cards, with her black, nameless underwear in hand, i remember thinking "well he could at least have had the decency to do this somewhere else".I calmly handled the situation. No screaming or fussing, no dragging of hair or weeping."Get out of my house", I said in a low voice that transmitted more rage than yelling could convey.They had scrambled around for their clothes. The red head was already in tears, her shoulders trembling in fear while she wore her clothes. She probably thought this was the end of h
Hudson's I thought when Mr Perot had handed the keys of our new Highland Park home to us, it would mark the beginning of a beautiful marriage. I now know we were both with each other for the thrill. The thrill was gone when we realized we would be staring into each other's faces for years to come. We did not need to sneak around and make out. We were married. It was legal on paper. I settled into the Perot life faster than usual. I wanted more and she did too.Raya would pretend to be the perfect wife but I would always find her flirting with Atlas, our company's tech geek. Cheating on Raya wasn't all so fun but I wanted to feel something, I wanted her to feel something too. So let's say I intentionally wanted to get caught. Sitting at the dining table this morning, I wondered why she wasn't acting like her usual self. I could feel her eyes trained on me and they were usually fixed on her phone."Alright, Raya. You want to talk, let's have it", I said, tired of being watched while I
Raya's Father had once told me that a Perot is never messed with. I was tired of the thing I had with Hudson. I wanted to leave even before he cheated. Watching him fuck our secretary in our bed did not evoke much anger in me. I never fired her until the news went public and it felt like I needed to. Hudson had never tasted the wrath of a Perot, I thought it was about time."Hello, Mr Chan" "Hello, lovely to hear from you again after so long", he responded with so much warmth. He had always seen me as a daughter, not a boss."Mr Chan, I need you to contact the turtles" Turtles were a thing father had created. This was why he had been crowned king of the corporate empire. The turtles had access to underground information on all our competitors and could influence their next moves just from a click of a button on one of their many gadgets. Father had put them together to get ahead of the others."Oh dear, since your father retired we haven't used those in a long while. They might be a
Hudson's When I had gotten the call from Raya, I thought just maybe God was giving me another chance. Maybe God was offering me some sort of olive branch since I never really believed in him. I was excited to see her, it had been weeks. I had been thrown out of my usual schedule because of cheating and now I could ack what I had lost.I was too anxious to even order. I wanted to know why she hadn't chosen to see me and even in our favourite breakfast place before we had gotten married. It felt like a step in the right direction. Staring at my pictures in the blogs where I'm covered in green smoothie and where the smoothie is mid air towards me made me feel stupid. Raya had fired me, humiliated me in front of her staff and blocked my access to our accounts. How could I have been so foolish to think she would forgive me and want me back in a mere two weeks. I left the house to stay a while with my friend, Lamar. We had known each other since high school. He was one of the few who decid
(Flashback)I slowly nodded at Darlene who was trying to help Millie up even though she barely did. I let out a sigh and carried her bridal stroke towards the kitchen as she continued to cling to me tighter which was driving me more and more crazy. I placed her carefully on the island and poured a glass of wine for her without taking my eyes off her. What does she have on her that is this addictive to want to touch her so crazily that it eats me up to stay this far from her?"Here." I hand her the drink which she took and slowly took an awkward sip. "I'm happy you're both here, let's play a game," Darlene said breaking the awkward silence between us, she walked up to me holding my palm along with Millie's, I got a hint of what she was trying to do and roll my eyes looking away shyly."Let's play hide and seek, I hide and you two find me." She giggled running out of the kitchen."You just woke up darling." Millie smiled at her giving me more reasons to drive her crazy."Find me if you
Everyone was stunned by what Michael had just done, he had dared to attack someone from the guild like it was nothing.“What do you think you’re doing Michael?” Bianca snarled at him with a horrified gaze. “What makes you think you have the Berber to hurt mr Tate’s son?” Stacking Victo was the same thing as attacking the father himself and even challenging the guild.“If you’re willing to die then you can do that on your own without dragging us into this okay?” Finn glared at him angrily, he didn't care if Michael got into trouble but was more worried about getting dragged into the whole thing.“Michael I don’t think this is right.” A line curved on Ciara’s lips as she stared at Michael in concern, although her family was powerful compared to the guild they could easily be wiped out before they lifted a finger.“He deserves every blow that I give to him no doubt and I would do it over and over again without hesitation.” Michael shrugged nonchalantly as he glared at Victor.“You don’t
