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
Selena was so elated when she opened the door that night and saw Dominic standing on the porch with his arms in his pocket and a flower in his hands. "You're here." She grinned and threw her hands across his shoulders, embracing him and inhaling his scent but she noticed something about him. He was a bit stiff, not as receptive as he used to be and she was a bit gob-smacked."Are you okay? Was the trip okay? Where is Eleanor?" She stopped talking when she saw Eleanor standing at the car and waving at her. She took another glance at him before whispering. "Eleanor is okay, why are you behaving as though there was a problem? Did anyone die? Your warriors?" She fired at him but Dominic didn't reply She began to panic and wonder what was wrong with him. She yelped when he lifted her from the ground and kissed her deeply. " What is going on?" She replied after blinking from the daze of the aftermath."I missed you, let's go. Eleanor would drive your car home." He replied and she stared
"You can come in already ma'am." A lady whom Selena was guessing was a secretary told her when she walked into the consortium the next morning.Dominic had gone to work before she woke up and when she was leaving, Eleanor told her that he had requested that she be brought here. She pushed the door open slowly and saw Dominic standing in the middle of the lobby probably waiting for her and she stared at him warily. " What happened to us not coming here yet?" She cocked her head and he chuckled at her words.Of course, she was going to think that it wouldn't come to actualization after all these years of promising her but he was here to surprise her. " Well, you are here now and I don't think anyone has the right to question your presence. Let's go. The head of the consortium is waiting for us." He said and stretched out his palm.Selena's heels clicked against the tiles as she followed him into the elevator. " This is so surreal." She whispered when she saw a bunch of employees starin
Dominic chuckled at the stupidity that his soon-in-laws always loved portraying. It didn't baffle him that they would always find a way to make sure that it looked like they won and it made him always laugh them to scorn."Camara you should caution your fiance. He can't go around embarrassing himself everywhere he goes. It's improper." Selena slammed her sister.Camara's eyes narrowed at her sister who was feeling very pompous just because she was riding an exotic car."I don't think this discussion is for you. It's man-to-man. Let them speak. I know that you probably have some money stashed somewhere that you're using to fund this lifestyle. I won't be here to sympathize with you when the bank comes knocking." Dominic smirked at the duo who had allowed bitterness to est into them deeply that they were beginning to have a distorted view of things. " I don't have the time for this." He said and dragged Selena along. Gone are the times when he exchanged words with such persons. They h
Dominic smirked when his phone beeped and saw the message from Martha. Silas would be pulling his hair wherever he was and that thought made him more elated than anyone in the world.Selena noticed this and peeped into his phone screen but couldn't see it well because of the thickness of the glass."Did you strike a deal?" She inquired because he looked so happy and she wanted to know what was the reason for his joy. "It's just a message from Martha telling them that she doesn't want to have anything to do with them." He spoke and she grinned."Oh my goodness. They are going to be so mad at us." She replied and he stared at her. "I can already imagine their faces. Did you tell her to do that? So that I could work there?" She inquired just to be sure.Dominic had a sly smirk on his face and shook his head but she had a hard time believing that it was true. " I didn't tell her what to do. She's not someone who is easily bendable. It makes everything easier." "Oh, boy. I can imagine how
Dominic raised his head when Selena walked up. "I would like to have a review of this letter later. There is something wrong but I can't figure it out right now." He said.Emily and Todd rose softly and walked towards the door, exiting quietly. Selena rounded the table with a questioning look on her face. She stared at him for a minute before asking what was wrong. "What is wrong with the letter?" "It doesn't seem authentic. I'll scan it and confirm." Dominic said as he printed a copy from the printer beside him. "Okay... So, what do we do if it turns out to be fake?" She inquired and he shrugged. She cocked her head to understand what was actually happening.She knew that he was not going to let it slide but the way he was playing it cool was making her wary. "Are you sure?" She asked. "I don't know my reaction yet until I get to the root of the matter." He repliedShe stared at him for a minute before nodding softly. "Is there anything that I need to know...?" "What did your mo
