2025-02-16 06:50:58Marcus froze! The scene unfolding right before his eyes was unbelievable.
His whole trembled along with his lips like someone who swallowed a hot food particles but no! That was not the case. The scene displaying before him was made his heart hurt badly. His right hand held the door knob while a carton of pizza rested on the other hand. His hand suddenly became weak and the pizza slipped from his hand, crashing to the floor in such a way the pizza scattered all over the floor. Some minutes earlier, he was in shock to see a message from his wife telling him to come to five star hotel, room 207 precisely. His joy knew no bounds! Finally, it's time to consummate their marriage of two years but why Mirabelle want it to happen in an hotel? He wondered. Coincidentally, his boss, where he works as a delivery guy begged him to deliver the pizza to a customer at Five star hotel, room 207 precisely. He had thought Mirabelle wanted to celebrate the special night with the package but now he knew he was wrong. On the a gigantic bed under a dim bulb which illuminated the room was Mirabelle stark naked under another man with her hands wrapped around his waist. Underwears could be seen lying carelessly on the floor of the room and the only sound that filled the silence was her moaning. “You..re the best..Ahh..you're..ohh..” She gripped the Bedsheet enjoying the pleasure from another man. Marcus felt his heart ripping apart. Hot sweats boiled out from his forehead. The two lovers were Deeply drowned in the pleasurably intimacy that they didn't even notice his presence at the door. His fist tightened on the door knob and it broke away from the door forcefully. He felt his blood boiling with rage. He couldn't take it anymore. “Mirabelle!!” His voice rang aggressively like and emergency alarm. His voice was loud and dripping with anger. It startled the duo on the bed, interrupting their fun. Mirabelle scampered on the bed. Quickly, she grabbed a Bedsheet and covered up her nakedness. Due to shock of the interruption, the Bedsheet fell from her chest but she picked it sharply, breathing hastily. She turned to the door after covering her body to see Marcus at the door. She was shocked! “Mar.. Marcus!” She stuttered. She wasn't expecting to see him there. The alcoholic wine she took earlier which made her sent a text message to Marcus instead of her secret lover had cleared from her brain. “Wha..what are you doing here?” Her eye were widened and her breathe shaky. Marcus gritted his teeth, his anger dipping deeper. He took a step into the room with his fierce gaze settled on Mirabelle. He totally ignored the man who stood at a corner, watching them. “What am I doing here!??!” Marcus's angry voice cut through the tension. “You called me here to show me these!!” Mirabelle swallowed hard, her gaze weak and pitiful. She flapped her eyelashes repeatedly like someone trying to prevent tears from falling from her eye. “I can explain Marcus.. Please listen to me. I..” Mirabelle stuttered with empathy and regret in her voice. Marcus shook his head. “There is nothing to explain Mira!! Do you think am blind!! You want to explain what exactly!! Do you think am dumb!!” Marcus blurted out aggressively, his vein popping visibly on his forehead. Droplets of sweats tickled down from his forehead. The room fell into silence for some moments before the man who had been observing spoke up. “Who the heck is this man here!!” His voice was harsh and dripping with disdain. Marcus turned to him. “I should be asking you that question old man! Who the heck are you!?” Marcus glared back at the man who should be in his late 40’s but he looks maintained and rich. The man was clearly angry at Marcus's audacity. “Who the heck is this dimwit here!!” The man directed his questions to Mirabelle. “He’s.. he's the guy I told you about.” She managed to speak with a shaky voice. The man turned to Marcus, casting him a disdainful look. “You mean this is the useless thing that has been pestering you!!?” He snorted, his gaze fully on Marcus. Marcus chuckled, he averted his gaze to Mirabelle. He couldn't believe she had been talking about him to another man. He even regarded him as a ‘guy’ rather than her husband. “You’re the useless thing here old man!” Marcus took another step inside after the vocal retaliation. “You're sleeping with a girl you're old enough to be his father! What a shame!” Marcus spat disdainfully. Angrily, the man stormed towards him and connected his palm to his cheek. “Parrr!!!” The slap echoed in the silence. Marcus staggered back. He held his cheek to feel, nurturing the pain from the slap. Fingerprint was left on his cheek and from the bending posture, he tasted blood in his mouth. Sharply, Marcus raised his hand to retaliate with his own slap but Mirabelle held his hand on the air. “I’ll never allow you to touch him, Marcus!!” Her once soft and empathetic charisma suddenly shifted to an angry expression on her face. “How dare you betray me Mirabelle!! I love you with everything I have! I gave you everything!” Marcus cried out, pain dripping in his voice. “You gaze me everything you had?” She chuckled. “You have nothing Marcus. You have been a burden to me!” She blurted out. She continued with a condescending tone. “You are just a delivery guy. Do you think I love you? Have I ever allowed you to touch me!? Huh!” Marcus felt the ground splitting beneath him. He was heartbroken, disappointed and frustrated that the only woman he called his wife never loved him a bit. Mirabelle continued carelessly. “Do you know why I married you?” She chuckled. “You’re just a thing of exchange to inherit my late father's properties!” Her cruel revelation got Marcus more angry. Mirabelle had accepted Marcus' proposal because her late father had clearly stated in his will that only when she got married will she have full right to his assets and that was why Mirabelle desperately accepting Marcus's proposal. “How dare you use me for your selfish purpose!! How dare you waste 2 years of my precious life!!” Marcus roared, his finger morphed to a fist. He had never felt the urge to touch a woman in his life but at that moment he felt like slapping Mirabelle till she bled. His anger took over him, propelling him forward to carry out the act he had swore never to do– to hit a woman. Mirabelle was standing before the window of the room with his back facing the glass window. The room was on the four floor of the hotel. Marcus raised his hand to hit her but Sir. Hex, Mirabelle's new lover intervene and pushed Marcus in such a way he forcefully hit his face against the glass window, shattering it. Like a crashing airplane, Marcus tumbled down the window, falling down from the tall building. His body fell on a car and his weight compressed the roof. Blood splashed!

Mirabelle and her new lover rushed to the window to see crowds gathered around the car with cops trying to disperse them. Their Siren wailed continuously in the air. Mirabelle gasped with both hands covering her mouth. She knew the police would soon come to interrogate them. Sir. Hex on the other hand had an indifferent demeanor. He was as calm as a stagnant water and that's because of his high status in the city. He's not only rich but famous. Just as Mirabelle thought, police barged into room 207 with torches flashing from their gun which they pointed at them. “Hand in the air!! You're under arrest!” Their commander instructed, pointing his own gun too. “Sir!!” He called surprisingly after recognizing Sir. Hex. “Lower your guns!” He ordered him men and the men did as instructed. He stepped closer to them and bowed. “I never knew it was you sir!” He said after raising his head. He glanced at Mirabelle then continued. “Someone fell from the window and the receptionist said h

His jaw fell leaving his mouth open like someone who swallowed the whole watermelon. “$2 million dollars!!!” He blurted in surprise, startling Lily who turned to him with an inquisitive gaze. “$2 million dollars!!” She took a step closer, stretching her neck to the phone but Marcus sharply kept the phone and forced a smile to look less suspicious. “Huh! Did I just say $2 million dollars?!” He chuckled and continued with the fabrication. “I mean..I have 2 million followers on TikTok.” He swallowed hard, his gaze meeting Lilly's whose eye grew wider. “Wow!!! You must be a celebrity on TikTok!” Her brow arched, seemingly confused as she stared at Marcus intently as if trying to remember if he had seen him before. “But I have never seen you on TikTok once! I know virtually all the celebrities on TikTok.” Hearing that, Marcus swallowed hard. Obvio

She shivered with her eye casted downward as the woman had swore to disgrace her so she began shouting. “This filthy sandbag just damaged the expensive gadgets I bought! She's nothing but a little rat who causes trouble around and she must pay for everything….” The fat woman continued ranting, her voice attracting more attention to them. Customers and workers present there gathered around the scene. Whispers and murmurs of abuse polluted the once serene atmosphere. If Lizzy was an ice, she could have melted because the embarrassment was too much for her. Each whisper cut through her heart deeply, making his heart ache bitterly. She felt tears threatening to spill from her eyes. A droplet of tears tickled to the floor from her eye. Marcus gritted his teeth angrily whe

The two guards stood before Marcus, stopping him before he could take a step out of the door. They gripped their baton tightly as if waiting for a command to pounce on him. Maverick tightened his grip on Lily's wrist staring back at the men confidently. “What is this all about?” He glared at the men, his grip firm on Lizzy's wrist. “It’s about you.” Mike's voice came from behind before he totally came into view and stood before him. “You need to tell me who you duped with such a huge amount of money.” Marcus frowned. “How the heck is that your business?!” He glared at him. Mike Chuckled and took a step closer to him. He was determined to make Marcus get embarrassed one way or the other. “I see you're the stubborn type. You'll confess once the cops get here.” Mike had earlier called the cops, informing them he held a suspect hostage. Marcus gritted his teeth.

News about the change of ownership of smart tech had gone viral. Some wondered who could have pulled such an incredible transaction string. Some ladies had already planned on how to meet the secret billionaire and start a relationship with him. Marcus was seated at the backseat of a taxi with Lizzy beside him. He stared out through the window watching cars and pedestrians along the road. Lizzy on the other hand stared at him, wondering who exactly he was. Only the humming of the car engine filled their ears. Marcus noticed the lingering gaze so he broke the silence. “Stop staring at me that way.” He said calmly without turning to her. Lizzy leaned forward to say something but a breaking news coming from the car's stereo interrupted her. The broadcaster was saying thus; “....smart tech has been purchased by an unknown billionaire. No one knows his identity yet but people believe he's incredible, a somebody ....” The broadcaster was still reporting but Lizzy wasn't listening anymor

Twinkles hotel is not the kind of hotel for ordinary people. Those who patronize the hotel are top and rich men in the city. The hotel is no place for pauper and the management had made it a top priority to scan customers, based on their appearance, a way to make sure the rooms are made available for only rich customers. The workers are smart and professional. Even to be employed as a cleaner in the hotel, such a person must have some satisfying skills. “Wow!!!” Lizzy's mouth fell open, carefully taking in the opulence of the hotel.

So she rushed out of the hotel in heels with two nurses rolling a wheel bed behind her. “Take her to the hospital now!!” The nurses carried Lilly from Marcus and laid her on the bed. Their next destination became an emergency ward which they rolled the bed into. A doctor soon entered the ward and Marcus watched from outside with an unstable mind to see the doctor doing his best to revive her. He rubbed his hair haphazardly, a feeling of disorientation cruising in his body. He rested his back on the wall of the passage in the hospital, tapping his feet on the floor continually like a man whose wife is in labour. Marcus rushed to the doctor when he came out of the emergency ward. “How’s she doc? Is she fine now! Can I see her!” Marcus threw millions of questions at the doctor. The doctor exhaled deeply and stared at Marcus for some moments. “She sustained a fatal head

Immediately, he called him on a video call. Kane laid on hospital bed with a heap of bandage around his head. His face had swollen, leaving one of his eyes bigger than the other. He could feel his brother boiling in anger at the other end of the video call. “Who the heck did this to you!!?” The brother sparked with anger in his tone. Kane wanted to reply but felt a burning pain in his mouth which couldn't allow him to speak. He twisted his mouth, trying to nurture the pain as he managed to say. “It’s a guy brother. I don't know his name. He just walked up to me and started hitting me.” Kane said without narrating the full story of what really happened. “What nonsense!! I’ll deal with the idiot who dares mess with you!!” He blurted with gritted teeth. He couldn't hang it around his neck,

A doctor matched behind the nurses and Laurent was quickly whisked into Ward 10.No one knows if he's alive or dead. He was laid on a bed in the ward and quickly the doctor cut his cloth loose with a scissor. Medical devices and tubes were passed into his body to support his life.

Flashes of camera didn't stop flickering on him till he was totally out of sight.Journalists clustered around Laurent as he made his way out of the courtroom.

A male journalist raised his voice to his hearing but he didn't stop. He simply approached his car yet they buzz around him like bee on honey.“Where did you get the confidence from?

He broke the silence simply.The fat judge who was also in Shock cleared her throat and said.“Mr. Laurent. Are you sure about this? The Court can grant you few minutes to arrange fo r a lawyer." She said even when she knew Laurent is going to lose the case because she must judge him guilty no matter what.“You heard me well."

Marcus got to the location of the address. It was under a bridge at the fringe of the city. It was dark and weary. No human could be at such a place especially at that time. Marcus waited in the car, tapping his fingers gently and nervously on the steering wheel.He could hear the sound of running water down the old bridge which added to the tension in the atmosphere.Just then, he sighted the headlight of a car coming from a distance. It reflected on the windscreen on his car. He shifted on his seat and his heart beat increased.The headlight shone more brightly on his face as the car stopped in the centre of the road.

Inside of the golden wardrobe were documents, all white papers, each seated on another one, filling the wardrobe to the top. Marcus' eyes scan the documents, wondering what contents it holds.The silence that emerged in the room was deafening. The tickling seconds hand of a wall clock would definitely be heard loudly in the silence but unfortunately there was none but Marcus' heart took the function of a wall clock. He could hear it beating in his ear.He gulped hard and reached out to one of the documents. Carefully, he pulled it out and the document rested on his palm. On the front page is the name; Laurent Augusto boldly written on it.Definitely, Lauren had set up the place.The tip of his Thumb and index finger gripped the edge of the paper and he flipped it open. A soft rattling sound came from it as a new page was revealed.His eyes scanned the words on the document carefully.

“I’m giving you nothing, Abigail!!” Laurent blurted, his tone final as he glared at Abigail who stepped forward to him with a fierce gaze too.She snorted, a subtle deadly crossing her lips. “You must be kidding Laurent! This was our deal and a deal is a promise!” She declared, tucking a stand of her hair backward.Silence took over for some seconds which enabled both to hear the distant cacophony of Horn from the distant city. “The Laurent you knew is dead and gone!” Marcus broke the silence, his voice simmering with rage. “The new me will not grant what you want! Go in and pack your things and leave. Now!!” Laurent pointed his finger in the direction of the door, his expression as hard as a stone.Abigail was fully taken aback. She couldn't comprehend what he meant by the statement; ‘the Laurent you knew is dead is gone.’ Frankly, the former Laurent had developed feelings for her some steps into the marriage contract but Abigail is just a greedy chick whose intention is to have h

In an empty warehouse. The silence in the vicinity was deafening. The squeaking of rats playing around in the dim space was the only sound heard in the dead silence.“Who sent you to burn the building?” Laurent's voice cut through the silence.He stood before the man who had been tied on both legs and hand to a wooden chair.“I don't know what you're talking about? Just kill me!” The man replied arrogantly.Laurent Chuckled. “You don't know? Huh?” He stepped closer to him and pointed a pistol to his head.“Are you going to speak now or not?” His finger rested on the trigger.The man laughed softly and spoke with a taunting voice. “Do you think I'm afraid of guns?” He Chuckled.“You will be afraid of where you'll find yourself after I pull the trigger because you're going to land in hell!” Laurent said, his voice filled with horror.“Another empty threat.” The man laughed out loudly, taking his statement as an empty threat.“Do you think I'm joking around here!”Provoked, Laurent pulle

Abigail on the other gently laid Rose on the bed and stepped away from the bed. She looked at the wall clock; 12: 30am. It was very early in the morning and the sky was still as dark as coal.Regardless of the argument she had with Laurent earlier, she was desperate to know where he left without informing her.“Why is Laurent not home by this time?” She muttered, feeling restless and worried about her husband's whereabouts. She took her phone from the nightstand seated close to the bed and dialed his number.The phone rang but no one picked. Tension and uneasiness mounted in her heart.Just as her finger hovered on the screen to dial his number again, a message appeared on it.Her Heart skipped a beat thinking it was from Laurent but the messages were sent by an unfamiliar number.Hesitantly, she clicked on the message and viewed it.

Laurent was detained and it was Abigail who came to the police station to bail him before he'ld appear in court next week to either be proven guilty or innocent.Abigail boiled with anger as she sat on the driver's side of the car.“You really did this!!? I don't trust you anymore since you returned from the war!! The Laurent I knew would never do something of this sort!!” She ranted with a high voice.Laurent exhaled, his voice calm and convincing. “Abigail. You need to trust me that I never did this’ I never burn the building. They framed me for it!!” He raised his voice slightly at the end to show his seriousness.“Framed?” Abigail snorted. “Do you think I'm a kid, Laurent? They framed you and forged the evidence too?! That's lame!” She said and ignited the engine.Laurent heaved heavily as if to offload the burden of thoughts in his mind. He leaned backward on the seat and his mind spiralled with thoughts.“I’m just going to make her see that I didn't do it.” He concluded in his t
