"No, no, fucking stay away from me!" I screamed.*******THE NEXT MORNING: TALIA.Talia's Uber dropped her off at the front of the company. She paid the driver and got out of the cab. After the usual security checks, she entered the building, walked over to the counter, went to sign her name and the date of her return for the day, but Crystal wasn't there.She turned to Crystal's assistant, Elena, when Talia noticed she was crying."Is everything okay?" Talia asked, shaking her head and blowing her nose with a handkerchief."Can you share, you know, maybe I could help," Talia grinned, but it didn't seem to have any effect on Elena, and the moment Elena opened her mouth to speak, tears began to roll down her cheeks uncontrollably."H-haven't you heard? I thought you two were close," Elena muttered, using the handkerchief to wipe the tears from her eyes. Talia was confused, who was she talking about?"Who are you talking about," Talia said in a soft tone, not wanting to upset Elena."C
"What's wrong, why are you sitting on the floor? And why are you crying?" Talia looked up to see her boss, Wayne, standing in front of her."It's Crystal, the cashier who works here, I found out this morning that she was murdered," Crystal's assistant explained to Wayne."What?" Wayne was taken aback."She was in my office yesterday, I even saw her before I left, how come she's dead?" Wayne asked."Get up Talia, follow me to my office," Wayne started walking towards the lift."Now!" He said and Talia sluggishly stood up and was about to leave when the Crystal employee called her."Talia," Talia turned to her."You forgot your bag," she said, pointing to Talia's bag on the floor. Talia bent down to pick up her bag and then followed Wayne into his office.How could she not know what had happened to her cousin's sister? why was she the last to know? Who the hell did this to her? Why Crystal? Or was it those men who tried to kill Wayne at his party, had they been looking for her and then
"But..." Wayne hung up without letting her finish."I don't know why he's always such an asshole," Amber sighed.Within a few minutes, Amber's phone started ringing and she excitedly answered it, not even knowing who the caller was. Apparently she thought it was Wayne who had decided to call her back."Hello," she said with a broad smile on her lips, but her smile was suddenly replaced by a frown when she heard a woman's voice."Hello my little girl, how are you?" Amber glanced at her phone, it was her supposed mother, Aunt Matilda."I'm fine, hello," Amber mumbled."Are you sure you're all right? you don't sound all right,"" I'm fine, thank you," Amber said."OK, that's good to hear, how are you feeling now? I heard you got shot, that bastard had the guts to hurt my little girl," Aunt Matilda growled and Amber rolled her eyes."I'm fine, everything's fine, so let bygones be bygones," Amber said."Even after being shot, you want to forgive him so easily, don't tell me you're still th
"Darling, sorry I'm late, I got stuck in traffic," Mrs Laurette rushed into the room as she distracted Amber from finishing her explanation to Mr Cooper."You weren't gone too long, plus Grandfather was here to keep me company," Amber said."And I think my company is over, I'm going to the other room, it's almost like this hospital is my new home now," Mr Cooper said as he stood up and threw his empty tin into the bin before leaving the room."Father, please help me say hello to Mother," Mrs Laurette murmured."I can see you're out of your mind, if you refuse to come yourself, you don't tell me to help you." "I'm sorry, I'll come later in the day then," Mrs Laurette said."As you wish," Mr Cooper said as he walked away."What did he tell you?" Mrs Laurette asked."We were just talking about some important things.""Since when do you and your grandfather talk about important things, or stuff as you call it," Mrs Laurette said."Film me in the important stuff," Mrs Laurette said as the
“Why haven't you sent the documents Wayne asked you to send to my table? Or do you think I have all day to spare?“ Theresa asked.“What document?“ I asked.“Are you fucking nuts? don't you remember Wayne, asking you to deliver the documents for the company's account once you're done reviewing them,” Theresa stated.“I'm sorry I don't remember, but is that why you're speaking to me in that manner?“ Talia asked.“In what manner? I only asked you for the documents, and you decided to pretend like you don't remember, don't you know how annoying it is?“ Theresa grumbled.“Look, Theresa, I'm not in the mood for fights and quarrels, I only said I don't remember, because I and the boss haven't spoken about giving you any documents today, in fact he had given me these files to review yesterday and not today. But, why do you need the documents for the company's account? I am meant to give it directly to the boss, not you,” Talia furrowed her brows.“I can see you're really out of your mind. I c
“Don't worry Wayne, in just a short amount of time, I will make sure I bring this company down to dust, and I'm bringing you down with it,” She grumbled.******TALIA.Talia couldn't stop thinking about the fact that Theresa would lie about her boss asking her to bring the document that records the bank's transactions and every money that comes in and out. What was her plan?Talia needed to know if her boss, Wayne, had asked Theresa to bring those documents to him, so she went over to his office, knocked on his door and waited for his response.“Come in,” her boss said and she opened the door.“Good day sir,” she greeted.“Good day Talia, how are you doing, although I can see you're doing alright,” Wayne said with a smile.“I am thank you Sir,” Talia smirked.“Is there any problem?“ Wayne asked.“No Sir, there isn't, I just wanted to know of you had sent Theresa to get some documents for you,” “What documents?“ Wayne drew his brows together. “Why did he look so confused, does it mea
"But why are you asking?" Amber asked his mother, Mrs Laurette."I'm surprised you could find his Instagram page, I personally searched his name several times but nothing came up, I even believed he wasn't on social media, can I see his pictures?" Mrs Laurette muttered. "Oops," Amber covered her mouth with her palm."What's wrong?" Mrs Laurette asked, confused."My battery just died, can't you charge it?" Mrs Laurette raised her eyebrows."That's the problem, I didn't bring my charger," Amber gritted her teeth."Why on earth didn't you bring your charger?" Mrs Laurette rolled her eyes in annoyance."Why would I bring my charger when I didn't plan to be here, I didn't go on my mission that brought me here hoping to charge my phone at a mafia boss's house that turned out to be my father's house," Amber grumbled."But why are you so interested in seeing his pictures?" Amber asked, and Mrs Laurette clumsily cleared her throat."What do you expect? He gave us three fucking expensive cars,
"What's the matter with you?" He asked."Who me?" Mrs Laurette and Amber both said in unison."I'm talking to you Laurette, what's the problem?" Mr Oliver said."What have I done?" Mrs Laurette asked in confusion."Why were you shouting like that? Don't you know everyone outside can hear you? And what were you banging about?" Mr Oliver asked."Nothing, what have you brought for us?" Mrs Laurette asked."Don't try to turn the conversation around, what is really going on with you?" Mr Oliver muttered, anger in his voice."Why do you sound so cold, I'm sure my rumbling is not enough reason for you to talk to me this way, who wronged you, common, talk to me," Mrs Laurette said. But Mr Iliver remained silent as he paced the room.Mrs Laurette turned to Amber, they both looked confused."Father, are you all right?" Amber asked, trying to break the awkward silence."That fool thinks he can get away with it, I'll show him who I really am, he'll be begging for mercy," Mr Oliver grumbled."Who
