Eleanor listed all the names of all the people who were going to be available for the list that Dominic wanted to carry out but was finally left with a few people who she was still a bit unsure of. "What's going on?" Dominic inquired when he saw the conflicting look on her face and she stared at him. "You've been frowning." She coughed softly before staring at him once again. " I don't know sir. I'm just feeling that this might not be a good idea." He raised his brows and she placed a hand before her. " I didn't mean your idea, what I meant was the fact that I would be choosing people who I think are worth it but on the other hand, I think that they have a reason to be a bit afraid, I don't know what will happen if I write the wrong names." Dominic thought that it was a valid fear though. There was something that told him that he was probably wasting his time making sure that his people were safe. It wasn't because of them but just because of the people who were supposed to be pro
By the time the plane landed, Selena sighed in pleasure. Shr breathed fresh air that was missing in the city. If she had her way, she would bring her things with her but for the issues that were predominantly arising she would rather just stay away from anything that connoted drama.After staying away for so long, there was nothing that would stop her from seeing him even if it meant just staying for a day. She hadn't still made up with her sister but she knew that they wouldn't replace Dominic in her life. Her grandma had given her the go-ahead to go find her man and come have the wedding as soon as possible. "Why is it that you don't have the lights anymore? It's really dark here." She complained to Eleanor who was as stiff as a board. If she had her way she wouldn't even be talking to Selena. She had lied to the pilot that it was Dominic who sent him to bring his beloved to Victoria. She could only pray that he didn't report to yue General. That meant it was an automatic demotion
Everyone noticed the changes in Dominic the next day when he came out the next day. "Why is the General a bit cheerful today? Is there a problem that he's solved? I know that there would be something behind his smile. I can't..." Eleanor coughed as she also exited her trailer and caught them discussing. "Is there any problem with that? I think I need to report one of you to the General so that you change your ways. One can see that you don't have anything to do with your lives right?" She replied. The people straightened instantly. " Please don't do that. We are just happy that everything is going on well. I don't know what I should even say concerning the issues. I'm just excited really." A man replied. Dominic was returning from the mine when he saw a few people gathered. The familiar hair of Eleanor shone amongst theirs and he saw her addressing them animatedly. He would still let her maintain her position. Everyone had stilled as he approached but Eleanor who was oblivious co
Chapter 128 "Let me get this straight, you mean you own the consortium?" Selena inquired in utter surprise as she stared at Dominic. He was richer than she ever imagined. What would have happened if she didn't snoop around, well that didn't permit snooping. "Kind of. It's just one of my chains of businesses." Selena rested on his chest. " I feel like a distraction to your goals. You're very focused and I can't even imagine you stopping right now because of me. I thought you were a business associate. What was I even thinking? I should have figured it out that day we went there and saw our beloved in-law and sister." She said, tracing circles around his chest. He hummed in pleasure while returning the favor on her back. " Okay, so how's work?" She suddenly felt shy that he was asking that question because she knew that he got reports from his people at work. It was just stupid for her to start telling him everything that had happened. "You already have the information." "Doesn'
Scared of what that might be, Selena moved backward but Dominic went ahead to check what was actually going on. He picked up the box and opened the wrap. He had already thought of who that could be but didn't know who it could be though.Then he reached into the box and brought out an envelope. " He dropped the box down and tore the seal open perusing what was inside it. He wasn't surprised when he found out that it was a letter.A letter? He wondered. This was him trying to make sure that things were balanced yet someone was delivering a threatening letter. "What is that? Is it something bad?" Selena poked her head out of the trailer and she stared at him in horror when she read the contents of the letter. "He's threatening to kill me if you don't surrender Victoria to him? Who the hell is this person?""Mezeth of course. He's hiding somewhere. I made a mistake of not killing him when I had the chance. That stupid man knows what he's doing." Dominic muttered regretfully."Ouch, that
Selena's holiday ended as soon as possible. She had spent almost a week trying so hard to make sure that she got all the necessary things that she should. "I'll call you when I get home, I need to sleep for a while." "Oh, really? That's good. Don't miss me too much." Dominic responded as he hugged her sideways so that she didn't feel very lonely. She smiled at him softly and decided to walk away. As soon as she walked a few minutes past, she ran back to plant a kiss on his lips with a smile. "I'll miss you. Don't be a stranger, baby." The pet name made him laugh and a few soldiers stared at him. Seeing him laugh was a big deal to them because it reassured them that he was not going to bite their heads off and was ready to help them. "Eleanor, make sure that you don't allow anything to happen to her. I will skin you alive." He smiled at her and she knew that he wasn't smiling. He was ready to kill anyone in his way. "I will, sir." He watched them go before returning to his trail
Being in the face of confrontation, Selena knew that she was supposed to do something to stop them from constituting a nuisance but she was unable to speak, not because she didn't want to, but just because she couldn't. It was almost as though there was a zipper on her mouth and all she could do was stare at them."Wait a minute, why the hell are you making noise and almost bringing the roof down? What happened to sending a letter? Do you think that I would take you hooligans seriously? Really? You must be joking!" She replied, staring at them fair and square. There was something that she needed to do to get them out of her mind and heart."Tell me, why the hell are you even doing this trash? Do you think that your noise scares me? It must be that you don't know my husband. I don't want him to show up and teach you a lesson that you'll never forget in your life, so if you would kindly respect yourself and leave now that you still can, it would be the best for you." "See, you can't ev
Selena was left with the option of either running and leaving Eleanor behind or making sure that she got her to safety. Now that word was relative because she didn't know when and how she would be able to fight her way out of the mob that was approaching. There was something about her that made even Eleanor afraid."Don't dare wait for me. Escape now that you've gotten the chance!" She cried out. She would rather take the hit than to allow the General's bride to be involved in such a mess. "No, I can't leave you here. Summon your strength, we can make it out of here." Selena refused. She wasn't just going to allow the innocent lady to rot away here. Even if they didn't touch her, she would certainly be killed for having a very strong presence and she wanted to correct it as soon as possible. " So, get up." The men had already rounded the corner immediately as they waited to see what was happening. Eleanor, with the remaining strength in her rose, rushed towards Selena. It was a ris
