Dominic was busy punching numbers in his keyboard when he heard his phone ring, not in the mood for entertaining calls he decided to pick up for who knew who could be calling."Hey, I was almost knocked down by a car right now." Selena informed him and he sat straighter in his seat. "When and where were you coming from?" Dominic inquired as he stopped typing, his hands halted midair. " I went out to lunch with Diana." She replied softly knowing fully well that he was going to chide her greatly."So, how are you, where are you?" He replied instead taking her by surprise, she would have been free around him if he spoke what she knew he had in mind to say."Uh... I'm just walking back into the office." "Are you sure that you weren't hit by the car?" He inquired because he knew that sometimes, people often tried to downplay the power of cars and he also knew that just a small touch from a speeding car could cause damage. Even worse, internal bleeding. "Oh, no, I'm very sure that nothi
Selena took the car for a spin and was busy thinking of how all of this wouldn't have come true if not for Dominic but she didn't want to dwell too much on that fact. He had told her to ask for whatever she wanted but as someone who never relied on any man as a source of livelihood, she made sure that she didn't ask him for too much."Do you like it?" Dominic inquired from the other side of the phone when he didn't hear her voice. It was evident that she was stunned beyond measure. "I am just a bit overwhelmed. Scratch that, I'm very overwhelmed. I don't want to believe that... This is expensive." She replied. As a business owner whose company was just recovering from the dungeons she knew that pulling out such money from a business in such times was enough to cripple their finances. Yet, here he was asking if she liked it, of course, she loved it!"It's beautiful, lovely and expensive. I can't believe that you'd get me something like this." She replied. Dominic chuckled, that was o
Micheal walked out of his hiding place and headed towards Dominic who was busy thinking about what to immediately do if things went South. When the person you were going to meet comes to meet you first, it's always pure bliss because you have the total advantage and all the person has is the ability to rant about how they were better.Marcus took an unconscious step backwards as he stared at the man who walked out with a plethora of guards. They weren't too far from Victoria but were far enough not to be heard even if they called for help. It was as simple as that. " Oh, so you are appearing for what exactly?" Dominic challenged him.He was in the mood for some action but killing was not a part of them at all. Imprisoning them might suffice but outright killing was a no-no for him."So, I'll wait till you get out of this nonsense that you're about to try with me because believe me dawg, I don't have the time for this recklessness." He said.Micheal chuckled evilly. "I hear that you've
"You can also leave, I don't need your services," Dominic commanded Marcus who stood beside him, hiding as the people of the Czech city ran back for shelter. There was definitely no way that he could have gotten out of that risky situation had it not been for Dominic. "But, sir..." "You cease occupying that position with immediate effect. You are a coward. What would have happened if I didn't take control? If I was a spineless bud like you?" Dominic cut him short. These weren't people to rely on because it was certain that they'd fail at the slightest glimpse of an attack so it was better to steer clear from them. That way it would save everyone from unnecessary headaches. "Sir, I promise to be on my best behavior, I will not run away. I was scared." Dominic whirled around and the words died on Marcus's lips. Oops! He slammed a hand across his lips. That was a Freudian slip and one that could cause irreparable damage to him if he really wanted to take it up. "You were scared?" Do
"Darling, are you the owner of that car? It's so beautiful." Grandma spoke from the doorway cutting their banter off. The in-laws straightened their spines and gave Grandma a smile pretending to be at peace with each other."Yes, Grandma. My fiance bought it for me, he's the best thing that has ever happened to me." Selena replied enthusiastically, rubbing her excitement in Silas' face. "I mean a lot of people belittled him when I first brought him home but right now they can only wish that they are in my shoes. Sadly, they can't because it's not my fault that they are not use to doing the right thing nor meeting with the right people." Grandma hid her smile, she knew what Selena was pointing out and she didn't feel remorseful about it one bit. The only problem she had with Dominic was the seeming fact that he was broke but now that he turned out to be rich, she wouldn't mind a car of her own. "Anyway, we thank God that he turned out great, but this is just a tip of the iceberg, I
Meanwhile, Dominic sneaked around the house and cocked his gun. The house didn't seem heavily guarded but he still couldn't just barge in there because it could be hazardous, his mind tried to come up with an innovative idea that could help him in getting into that place as soon as possible. It needed to be almost immediately.His boots scrunched against the grass and some gravel, resounding through the entire land area. It would alert them that a stranger was around and that would have destroyed all of the things that he planned on doing right now. The kidnapper had spotted Dominic right from afar and was waiting to see what would happen. He smiled at Eleanor who Shivered in her boots. " Oh, your lover is coming for you." He said.A dash of hope flickered in her heart as she already knew who he was talking about. There was only one person who would ensure that she was okay. "He's not my lover.""Don't you wish that he was?" The man taunted her and she rolled her eyes at his assumpti
Cowards! Bunch of fucking cowards! He muttered under his breath before looking around. He squared his haw as he stared at Dominic who was smiling. "So, what are you going to do now? Kill me off? Like you do with all your opponents? Is that what you want to do right now?" He replied cheekily and Dominic kept on staring with a straight face and was not even saying anything that tangible.He walked into the firing range, daring Dominic to shoot him. " So, what are you going to do, Dominic?" He challenged him while signaling to his aide to immediately come here and take that wide shot at him.Dominic, understanding what was going on was staring at him while turning in the direction he looked subtly. "you can also tell him to leave because I won't hesitate to destroy him." He flung the warning carelessly expecting that whoever was sensible enough would learn fast and know how to detach themselves from problems. the kidnapper refused to tell him to leave because it was his only chance at
Eleanor grabbed the gun that she had managed to obtain from one of the dead men and quickly began to shoot. Dominic also turned swiftly, his hands also triggering the person who tried to shoot them. His gaze rested on him and finally saw where he was hiding. There were still a few people who were still lurking in the tree. So it was meant to be an ambush! He figured and didn't say anything about it. Eleanor was going to run out of bullets that way, the best way not to show that you had anything up your sleeves. His eyes took a wide roam about the environment and finally made sure that he was not at a disadvantage. His eyes zoomed in on a figure that seemed to be lurking around the corner waiting for him to move away from him.Then in swift movement, he turned and fired a shot at it. He was praying that it would be enough to take down the man who was up there. "I'm going after him, can you take care of yourself?" He inquired from Eleanor who was busy rolling on the floor as she mov
