CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY FOUR Kate stretched her hands on the bed, in an attempt to place her hand over something, or someone rather, but she couldn't feel anything. She tried again and it was the saw thing. She opened her eyes with a disapproving grumble. Mario was nowhere to be found and his side of the bed was cold. She stretched her body before getting up from the bed. ‘where could he be?’ She wondered as she went into the bathroom to rinse her mouth. He was not there either. She decided to take her bath at once as it was late already and she had to report to work. She had been slacking lately due to the issues she was having. She took her bath, she paid extra attention to her face as she was sure she was getting old with the stress of the past few days. She got into the walk-in closet and choosed a simple and comfortable outfit. Luxury had never been her thing. She came out of the room, all dressed up and ready for work, there was still no sign of Mario, but
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY FIVE Kate ran upstairs to change her clothes and she had just taken off the ones she was putting on when she saw him come into the walk-in closet. She heard him draw closer but she continued with what she was doing even though she felt really shy under his heated gaze. She felt his hands on her waist and he wrapped his hands around her. His cold hands around her hot body made her shiver,but not out of cold, she shivered because of the growing sensation in her body. He whispered into her ear. “How bout we just go back to bed and let me worship your body?” He whispered into her ear and her whole body felt weird. She could tell that she was falling for his charms but she couldn't possibly let him have his way, she was getting late for work and she couldn't afford to miss too as that wouldn't be a good example to others. A leader leads by example. “Nah, I'll pass” She said as she wriggled herself out of his arms. She moved to take the clothe
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY SIX Tamara cried her heart out, she had thought about what her son had said and she had surmised that it was her fault totally. He had told her that he had everything under control and he was doing perfectly fine, but she was just too concerned about his safety and she had ended up hurting him in the process. She hated to see him in that state, and having him remind her everyday that it was her fault only made her hurt more. She stood up from the bed as she walked to the bathroom. She washed her face and took her bath before coming out. When she was done, she went back to bed. She was too tired to go out so she took the duvet and covered herself in it. She had no company to go to, and neither did she have any appointments to honor, sos wh could do as she liked without any worries. She had almost fallen asleep when she heard a soft knock on her door. She knew it wasn't Daniel as he didn't knock whenever he wanted to come into her room. She stoo
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY SEVEN “She is not your mother and the fact that you are repeating that word makes me want to end her so bad, and I would likely do that in front of you” Danny yelled this time, her anger was slowly rising to.the surface and Rina was only adding to it. “Unfortunately, we both know that you can't do that” Rina said with an evil chuckle. Danny cocked a brow at her, prompting her to explain. “We both know you can't end Rosemary, because if you do that, you'll have to end me too and I do not think you're good enough to do that” she paused for a while. “Odds are, if you don't, then you got yourself a vengeful daughter and about a thousand more enemies on your tail. You wouldn't live to see another week if you do that” He ended with a cute smile and she could see that Danny was taken. She chuckled lightly after a while. “I do know you are right Rina, but I think k you need to see things from my own perspective” she paused and Rina shrugged , urgi
CHAPTER HUNDRED AND FOURTY EIGHT (Flashback From Tamara) “What boss?” She asked and the girl replied hesitantly. “Mr Sinclair” she replied and Tamara was surprised. She never thought Gabriel would think of coming here in this lifetime. “What the hell is Gabriel doing here?” She asked no one in particular “Tell him I'm on my way” she told the girl before going back in and she heard the girl leave. She went back into her room and she wiped the tears off her face and applied a little bit of makeup to shield her swollen under eyes. She came out after a little time and she went downstairs to see Gabriel. He came with his assistant, his handbag as she addressed him before. “To what do I owe this pleasure?” She asked as she walked down the stairs majestically. Gabriel and the man raised their heads up simultaneously to look at her. “Tamara” Gabriel called and she cocked a brow at him. “What is it Mr man?” She asked “How's Daniel?” He asked and she chuckled loudly. “O
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY NINE Rina took long deep breaths as she entered the house, she knew Owen would still be in the hospital with Tyla and she didn't bother to go there as she didn't want to listen to his tantrums anymore. He had said some words that really upset her and she didn't think she was in the mood to see him now. He had not only thought badly of her, he had accused her wrongly and she was not very happy with what he did. On one hand, she was tempted to just go on with Danny's plan and end Owen, as that would be the end of her problems, but she knew she couldn't. She was in love with him, even if he couldn't see it. Because it was obvious that if he was, he wouldn't accuse her like that. She closed the door behind her and she walked to the stairs. She could see that the blood had already been wiped off the floor and there was no trace of any incident. She walked up the stairs slowly. She was about to go into her room when her eyes caught onto something. Sh
CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY Maria took a seat at the dining table, she couldn't believe her ears. Now she knew why he was not always around, it seems he was busy with his second family and here she was thinking he was whoring around. She scoffed. She didn't say a word as she served the food to everyone on the table, including Nolan. She picked up her cutleries and she began to eat. The boy watched her curiously. He had been told that she would actually maltreat him, but her reaction was a little bit surprising to him. He threw a glance at Negan from across the table and the man gave him a small nod. They both picked up their cutleries and started eating. They ate in silence and when they were done, Maria didn't say a word to any of them. She got up and went to her room. “I'll take you to your room boy” Negan said as she held the boy by the hand and led him to an arranged room. He left him there and he went to look for Maria. When he couldn't see her on the balcony, He
CHAPTER HUNDRED AND FIFTY ONE Owen sat on the hospital bed, he was half conscious and his whole body felt heavy. Tyla had gone to call the doctor and still get him something to eat at once as he had not taken anything throughout the whole day. His phone beeped with an incoming message and he took it from the stand. He opened his eyes wide when he saw the message. “We can settle this Owen, let's meet one on one, just me and you” Sender: Danny He stared at the message for a while, it seems she had finally decided to come out of hiding and he knew she didn't come for peace, she wanted him dead and she would stop at nothing to do that. Another text came in just a few seconds later. “I can probably get you right now if I want, but what fun would it be if the prey wasn't chased?” He read again and he ran his hand through his hair. He was suffering for a crime he knew totally nothing about. If it was even a crime to get married to someone in the first place. “Let's meet
