"Are we really going to die?" Talia asked, her whole body shaking with fear. But Wayne ignored her, instead beginning to clap his hands, drawing everyone's attention to him. "Bravo boy, bravo!" Wayne kept clapping, Jeremy had a confused look on his face, he had threatened the whole guest with the bomb that could kill them in a few minutes, but all Wayne could do was clap. "How much dumber can you be, huh? Tell me, because I don't think you have any idea who you think you're messing with, now let me take you back to the hotel before I shot you or whoever it was," Wayne paused, turned around to see the whole guest staring at him in bewilderment, then he continued. "When I made contact with the man in the hotel, obviously everyone who sees you knows you have a scar on your cheek, now Jeremy, I didn't find any scar on the man's face and every angle of his face was slightly different to yours. Of course, not everyone would notice it, but I did. And that's why I had to shoot him in a p
"What do you think you're doing?" Wayne asked. "I'm s-sorry sir, I'm so sorry, I got carried away," Talia started to walk away from Wayne in shame. In a split second, Wayne turned his attention to a figure watching them from a distance, it was Amber. Ignoring the sight of Amber, Wayne followed Talia. "Talia wait," he pulled Talia back from the living and then, for some reason Wayne did not know, without warning, he slammed his mouth into Talia's and slowly kissed her. Talia couldn't believe what was happening to her, was Wayne really kissing her, was she hallucinating again? The kiss was intense and it was then that Talia knew she wasn't dreaming. She would never have imagined how good this felt, how Wayne's lips made her whole body tingle, this feeling was never to be imagined, what if she hadn't taken that leap of faith, she wouldn't be tasting Wayne's soft lips. God, she didn't want to stop, she wanted this to go on forever. Amber, on the other hand, stared in confusion as her
Talia woke up the next morning, she turned to her side but Wayne wasn't there, she could almost believe that what she and Wayne had last night wasn't real and just a dream if it wasn't for a note next to where she lay. She picked up the note excitedly, her heart racing as she read it. "I WILL SEND A DRIVER TO TAKE YOU TO THE AIRPORT, YOUR PLANE TICKET IS TAKEN CARE OF. WAYNE," it said. Talia let the paper drop, a sad expression crossing her face. "What did I expect, I'm sure he just used me to get through the night," she muttered. Talia had hoped that the letter might be a prelude to something better, but Wayne said nothing about last night, as if it had never happened. ***** MR COOPER AND MRS EMILIA. "We are going broke Emilia, Wayne has done such a terrible thing to this family, I think we should do something about this whole situation, in a few years this family will be penniless," Mr Cooper rumbled. "What do you want us to do? Amber let him into this house and he has ruine
“We found you on the streets, you were about three, according to the doctors calculations and since we wanted a child, we decided to bring you up as ours,” Mrs Laurette said to Amber.Amber was left dumbfounded, she had just found out that her biological parents didn't want her, and not just did not want her, they also abandoned her in the streets, Without taking her to the orphanage for proper adoption.“No this can't be true, you all are liars,” Amber ran out of the living room.“Baby!“ Mrs Laurette called.“Amber!“ Mr Oliver followed Amber behind.Mrs Laurette was about to go after her husband Mr Oliver, but something made her stop. She turned to Mr Cooper and his wife Mrs Emilia, from their expression, they were Shocked by the news.“This whole thing is all your fault, you caused this whole mess,” she pointed her finger at both of them.“We are so—sorry,” Mrs Emilia mumbled.“Sorry?“ Mrs Laurette wondered why they would be sorry, after hearing that Amber wasn't really adopted, M
"Amber," Mrs Laurette muttered. "What are you talking about? Or is there more I need to know?" Amber raised her eyebrows. "Come and sit down, Amber," Mrs Emilia instructed. "Mother, I don't think she should know yet, I'm not even sure if what you're saying is true, we haven't gotten deep into it yet," Mrs Laurette said to Mrs Emilia. "What is it this time? and what are you hiding from me again? Aren't you tired of keeping secrets from me, aren't you all tired of hiding things I need to know? It's my life, damn it!" Amber shouted, which shocked everyone and the room fell silent. "Since you asked for the truth, here's what you need to know," Mrs Emilia started to speak, but Mrs Laurette cut her off again. "Look Amber, pay no attention to what your grandmother has to say, she never liked you, why should we believe anything you say Father," Mrs Laurette turned to Mr Cooper who had been silent for a while. "Father, tell me what Mother says isn't true, tell me that witch called
“Ruby?“ Wayne said.“We'll you're right boss, I'm sorry I haven't reached out to you in a while. I had some cases to settle, but I'm fine now that everything is settled, how have you been?“ Ruby asked.“Well I'm good thank you,” Wayne responded.“How about the company? I heard the project is completed,” Ruby mumbled.“Oh, yes you're right, and we will be having an opening party by next week, I'm sure you'll be there,” Wayne said.“Yes I will, I definitely will be there, but I have a question,”“And what is it?“ Wayne asked.“Uh— I'm not trying to sound selfish in a way, but—uhh, will Talia be coming too?“ Ruby asked.“What sort of question is that?“ Wayne asked.“Please don't get me wrong boss, I just want to know,” Ruby mumbled.“Well I guess you have to see for yourself, do have a good day,” Wayne said then he hung up. Why did he react in such a way, just because Ruby asked if Talia was going to attend the opening party, does this mean Wayne is having a soft spot for Talia? Well…. w
“What! What do you mean by that?“ Aunt Matilda asked. “She ran out of the house once we told her that she is your daughter. “Oh gosh she must really hate me so much, I really need to see her, I need to apologise for all I have done,” While Aunt Matilda spoke, Mrs Laurette's phone began to ring. This made Aunt Matilda stop as they listened to the conversation. “Hello, who I'm I speaking with?” Mrs Laurette asked the caller. “Good day, I'm speaking with Mrs Laurette Cooper?“ The caller asked. “Yes, is there a problem?“ Mrs Laurette furrowed her brows. “I believe so ma'am,” “What do you mean?” “I am doctor Millian, your daughter got involved in a fatal accident that sadly took her life, I would send you the address to my hospital, I'm so sorry for your loss,” the doctor said as Mrs Laurette burst into laughter. “what sort of joke is this? Hello, he—hello,” the doctor had already hung up. “This must be a joke,” Mrs Laurette scuffed “Honey what's wrong?“ Mr Oliver asked, while o
THE VENUE: WAYNE, TALIA & RUBY.Ruby entered the venue wearing a long emerald green satin dress. She looked around the room where unfamiliar elegant men and women were seated, different expensive champagnes being served to each seated guest. Ruby spotted Wayne talking to a guest and decided to go up to him."Hi," she whispered in Wayne's ear."Alright, I'll call you back," Wayne said to the man he was talking to, then turned to see Ruby smiling nervously."You came?" Wayne asked in a calm tone."Yes I did, I'm sure Talia wouldn't come, she always tends to miss important occasions,she can't just….,” Ruby stopped talking because a family figure had caught both her and Wayne's attention.It was Talia, in her beautiful lace dress.And as soon as she walked in, all eyes were on her. Her beautiful, expensive dress and her million-dollar pearl jewellery got most of the ladies talking."Who is she?""I've seen her somewhere,""She used to work for Wayne, right?""I think she's his mistress,"
