"What are we going to do? There's no way we're getting our company back, Wayne's got us under his thumb!" Mr Cooper shouted. Amber could hear the commotion from her room, she knew something was wrong, she quickly ran into the living room, by now all the family members had gathered, they all looked devastated. "What's going on?" Amber asked but no one gave her an answer, she turned to Timothy who was still standing next to her and she gave him a questioning look. "It's your anonymous boss," Timothy whispered. "What's wrong with him?" Amber asked, confused. "It's Wayne, Wayne owns your family's biggest company," Timothy explained. "No, tell me you're lying," she said to Timothy, moving backwards as tears welled up in her eyes, she turned and ran out of the living room, into her bedroom, they were all in big trouble. "I think we should call Wayne to apologise, because if we don't, I bet he'll fire someone else next," Mr Cooper said. "Honey you're right, I think we should call him
A month later, Wayne had set up so many financial companies and was making so much money that he had his own private yacht and jet. The whole town recognised him as the richest man after his father. One day Wayne decided to go shopping in the mall, he parked his black Mercedes G-class in the parking lot, everyone turned around to admire his car, and when Wayne got out of the car, every lady couldn't bear the sight of him, his shampooed blond shiny hair and his mesmerizing blue eyes made him look like Ken from the Barbie series. "Wow!!" "Oh my God, he is so cute!" "I wish he would just look at me," "I'm in love!" Women admired him, even men envied him. Everyone stared with their mouths open until he entered the shopping centre. He was walking around looking for the things he needed when he heard a familiar voice calling his name. "Wayne!" He turned to see it was Amber. Amber had refused to sign the divorce papers ever since Wayne had sent them to her, she had sent him text messa
One morning Wayne was on his way to his office when he noticed a black Benz following closely behind him, he knew he was in trouble, he decided to take a turn and go another way, but the car kept following him, Wayne immediately called his gang men and gave them a place to wait for him. "When you get there I want you boys to take cover and wait for my signal, I will lure them exactly where I need them to be," Wayne said as he took another turn. Wayne arrived at the location, it was an empty warehouse, Wayne was walking into the warehouse when he noticed the Benz pull up in front of the warehouse, it took a few seconds for the door to the passenger seat to open, and then the whole car doors opened as four muscular men got out of the car, they were wearing ski masks and they had tattoos all over their skin, they didn't look rich enough to own the Benz they were driving, unless it had been given to them by the person who sent them, or they had stolen it. They held guns and daggers,
A few months went by and Wayne hadn't heard a word from Jeremy. "He must have been frightened by the last incident," Wayne thought to himself. In a few minutes a guard ran into the living room where Wayne was sitting and informed him that there was a lady who had been standing at the gate for some time and had refused to leave, even when Wayne had instructed that no one was to enter the mansion, she still begged to see him. "Who did she say she was?" Wayne asked. "She claims to be your wife," the guard muttered. "Let her in," Wayne said, rolling his eyes, wondering how Amber had found out where he was and what she wanted from him this time. ****** A FEW HOURS EARLIER: JEREMY AND AMBER'S CONVERSATION "Jeremy, I don't think we should kill him, let's just get on with our wedding, it's what we've always wanted, right?" Amber asked, turning to Jeremy who was sitting in the driver's seat. "It's my money Amber, my father gave him what should be mine, I'm not going to let him take i
"My son, how could you be so careless? How could you let a girl put you in such a situation? If it hadn't been for the maid who saw you earlier, you would have bled to death," Mr Bruce said as he looked at Wayne lying on the hospital bed. "I've sent my men to arrest Amber and I need to make sure she is tortured until she tells us where Jeremy is hiding, they will both pay for what they have done to you," Mr Bruce added. A pretty young lady wearing a white gown entered the room. The moment Wayne saw her, he froze. "How could you be so stupid?" Jeremy shouted at Amber over the phone. "I'm sorry, I thought I had him in the right place?" Amber said in a shaky tone. "You always fail at everything, you no-good whore," Jeremy said. "What do you mean, you're yelling at me for one little mistake, haven't I done enough for you?" Amber asked. "You haven't done anything Amber, you're just a useless girl who desperately wants to be with me!" "Why do you sound like that? but you do love me,
Why the hell would you want to hurt me, Drex? Oh wait, are you working for Jeremy?" Wayne asked confused. To Wayne there was no reason why Drex would want to kill him unless he was working for someone else like Jeremy, but little did Wayne know why Drex was trying to kill him. "You always find a way to escape death, you son of a bitch!" Drex groaned, screaming so hard that he felt more pain. "What the hell are you talking about?" Wayne asked with a confused smile on his lip. "I'm sure your father told you how he lost you and those men broke into his house and shot his wife? Well, I let them in, I wanted to eliminate him and take everything from him, but my plan failed, he couldn't be defeated," Drex explained, breaking into a soft laugh. "And a few years later I came up with another plan to take over your father's fortune, it was easy, as there was no one he could sign over his fortune to, he could easily sign it over to me, all I had to do was make him trust me and show him how l
The next morning Mr Bruce arrived at the hospital where Wayne was. "You fools, you don't know how to do your job, you almost let my son get killed by that no-good bastard, do you want me to fire you?" Mr Bruce asked the two guards who were on their knees in front of Mr Bruce. "No... no sir, we're sorry, please this won't happen again, I promise," they both begged for their lives, knowing that Mr Bruce would not only fire them, he would make them pay for risking his son's life. "It's OK Dad, at least I'm not hurt, Caleb came to my rescue even if he was late," Wayne said, turning to look at one of the bodyguards. Immediately Wayne's phone rang, it was the Coopers. "Amber's finally been arrested," Wayne thought to himself. "Hello," Wayne answered the call. "You! You're still alive! I knew this was all planned to kidnap my daughter and make her one of your mistresses for revenge, right?" Mr Cooper spoke angrily into the phone. "Are you crazy? After everything your daughter has done
Four days later, Wayne was released from hospital, having made a full recovery. The Coopers had been calling and messaging him endlessly for the past few days, accusing him of kidnapping Amber and demanding that Wayne release her, but Wayne had no idea where Amber was, he had called the police to ask if they had Amber in custody, but they didn't, Wayne wasn't worried, after all she had tried to murder him. "Who knows if she ran off with Jeremy and pretended to be kidnapped," Wayne thought to himself. The next morning, Wayne awoke to the sound of knocking on his bedroom door. Wayne stretched out his hands and feet and a yawn escaped his lips. "Come in!" Wayne called as he watched the door slowly open, it was Linda, the maid who had saved him. "Good morning Master," Linda greeted, she seemed shy, she peeked through the door to take a look at Wayne before she came in. "How are you Linda?" Wayne asked, wondering why she was in his room so early in the morning. "I'm fine thank you, ho
