Marco sighed heavily as he stood in front of the imposing structure that have been the base of his torture.The school. It was a place he despised, a steady reminder of his struggles to get rid of the one person that has caused him so much pain.He needed the courage to step inside and for once, Marco wondered what people will say about him. He approached the entrance, he noticed the piercing gazes of his fellow students. Their eyes followed him, their whispers cutting through the air like knives. It seemed as though he was the center of attention, a spectacle for all to see. Marco felt uncomfortable wondering why he was the subject of such scrutiny and unwanted attention.As he passed by, people pointed at him as they whispered their theory about why he has been missing for some time.It would have been amusing if he didn't hear the words they uttered.They think Chris ran him out of town.It was embarrassing and it made Marco bitter enough to foam at the mouth. Marco's footsteps

"I am sorry, what?" Marco asks.Dahlia cackled, "You don't believe it, right?" she asked.Marco nodded."Me neither and if you had told me, I would have called you a liar.""Then how did you find out?" Marco asked."I heard her on the phone in the bathroom. She had no idea someone was there and just started making calls. At first, I heard Thompson and I waved it off. But when she said Chris would kill her if she finds out that he was pregnant with his father's baby, I lost it."Marco stared wide-eyed, he couldn't believe his ears."Raina?" he asked to be sure.Dahlia nodded."My God! What the hell is happening?" he asked himself."I have no idea. I told you that girl was a vicious snake.""Yeah, you did. It's a good thing I got out before she bit me." Marco smiled."What are you going to do about them? Chris hurt you and he set your house on fire. When are you going to get back at them?" Dahlia asked impatiently."This isn't a game of cat and mouse. I am going to do this my way."Dahl

Marco gritted his teeth at the message. He hit his steering wheel out of anger."Shit!"Marco gripped the steering wheel with white-knuckled intensity as he weaved through traffic, his heart pounding against his ribcage. The message on his phone had shaken him to the core, and he knew he had to reach Lily as quickly as possible. Every passing second felt like an eternity, fueling his desperation. Marco's car screeched to a halt in front of his house. He flung open the door and raced toward the front door, his breath heavy and ragged. He burst inside, finding Lily anxiously pacing in the living room. His eyes locked with hers, and he displayed his phone, showing her the message that had set him off.Lily's eyes widened in shock as she read the text. Her lips trembled, and she swore under her breath, the gravity of the situation sinking in. She rushed towards Marco, her voice a soothing balm to his inferno of a mind."Calm down.""We need to get him out.""Not now," Lily said.Marco

The water cascaded down his back as he leaned on the wall with his eyes closed.The tension in his back eased up the longer he stayed under the shower, Marco just stood there as the water poured all over him.After he looked at the picture, he threw his phone aside and went into the bathroom. He would handle the issue with a straight head.All he could think about was how his body ached after the workout. Marco had no idea if he was becoming heartless towards the situation. Chris had hoped the picture would send him running towards them with the hope of rescuing Kelvin but Marco had no interest in doing any of that.Lily was right, he couldn't go charging into the situation, it would only end in disaster, and that is what Chris wanted.Marco was done doing what Chris wanted, it was time to do what he wanted for a change.Marco turned the shower off and stepped out, he hurriedly put on his clothes and searched for his phone.He dialed David's number almost immediately."Hey Marco, I

"Who are you?" one of the men asked.Marco gave him a slight nod, "Thank you for asking. My name is Marco.""Okay Marco, what are you doing here?"Marco appreciated the question, they weren't rude."As I said earlier, I am a shareholder. I am the highest shareholder. It felt unreal that you would have a meeting without me present.""I thought you were out," Ford grumbled."So are we just going to ignore that a high schooler is the highest shareholder?" one of them asked. He looked at Marco, "No offense.""None taken. I take pride in it." Marco answered.His eyes swept the room till they landed on the tear-stained face of the secretary. "Go and pack," he ordered her."Please," she started to beg."Don't make me security. I wouldn't want you to embarrass yourself more than you have already."She grimaced when her words were thrown back at her face. She turned and walked out.Marco faced them."Now gentlemen, I feel like we need to change things around here. I have school and I am not

Ford stormed inside what looked like a warehouse.His partner in crime and Chris stood side by side with Kelvin being tied up."We need to talk, right now," Ford demanded.Chris and Thompson looked up quickly, they looked apprehensive like Ford had brought the police to their hideout."What's going on?" Chris asked.Ford ignored him as he looked at Thompson, urging him to listen and come with him.Kelvin made a sound at the back of his throat and all attention turned towards me.Ford took one look at Kelvin and scrunched his nose in disgust.He walked to the inner room with Chris and his father following him.Father and son looked at each other, a similar expression painted on their faces.Worry.They entered the office and Ford started pacing, he looked agitated."What's going on?" Thompson asked as soon as he saw the worry on Ford's face."What's going on? I will tell you what's going on!" Ford lost his cool but he quickly composed himself."He has to go," he said."Who?""The boy ha

Marco's grin stretched wider than his face as he stared at his phone."Why are you smiling like that?" Lily asked him.They were seated in the living room watching a movie while Lily stuffed her race with popcorn."Well, we got them," Marco said.Lily looked at him with a confused expression, "Got who?"Marco sighed, he leveled her with a look that screams boredom."Chris and co," he said finally.Lily grinned, "you going to explain this one?""The person hired got pictures of Ford going into a warehouse owned by Thompson and later on, Chris drove out with someone in the passenger seat.""Kelvin." Lily gasped."Yes." he grinned."So what's next on the list of taking them down?" Lily asked.Marco burst into laughter, "You are hilarious but nothing is on the list for now. I will just wait for my friend, something tells me this would be interesting.""How so?" "Just watch," Marco said.A knock came at the door and Lily's head turned to Marco's immediately. Marco grinned making Lily nar

Lily gaped at Kelvin and then at Marco who carried on eating like nothing happened."Did you hear what he said?" Lily asked.Marco shrugged like it didn't matter, "Yeah.""He asked your best friend to spy on you, are you not at least worried about that?" Lily shrieked.Like she could remember that Kelvin was still present, she offered him a small smile."No offense." "None was taken," he said and continued eating.Lily watched the boys best like nothing was affecting them, she felt like she was the only one worried so much."So are you going to spy on me?" Marco directed the question to Kelvin who paused.His fork hanging in the air as he froze, he gently lowered the cutlery and faced Marco."No,"He resumed eating just for Marco to drop another bomb that made Lily drop her fork."You should,"Lily gasped, her eyes flying to Marco's to ask him but he avoided her eyes."What?" Kelvin asked, he was shocked.Lily couldn't believe what she had just heard. Her eyes widened as she looked

"When I tell you that you are crazy, believe me," Lily mumbled.She rested her head against the headrest and covered her eyes with a sleeping mask.Marco grunted and did the same, it was going to be a long flight.Marco and Lily's flight touched down at the bustling airport, and they both let out a sigh of relief. Stepping off the plane, Marco felt the warm breeze of London enveloping them, and excitement filled his nostrils.Lily, with a slight yawn, turned to Marco and said, "You know, after this long flight, we should go rest a little before we go to the big house."Marco, however, seemed hesitant. "I understand that you need rest, Lily, but I need to take care of it now. If we get it done quickly, we can then relax and have a great time leading up to the prom back home."Lily smiled understandingly, knowing how important it was for him to come here. "Alright, I get it. Let's do what we need to do first, and then we can enjoy ourselves without any worries."They collected their

The voice bellowed startling Marco from sleep, he gazed with sleepy eyes into the eyes of Anthony.Marco looked around him and discovered that Lily was still sleeping with the sheet covered but it would take a fool not to guess what they had done.He sighed, not making a move."I believe I asked a question," Anthony said."You know we live together, were you expecting something else?" Marco asked.He got up gently, thankful he had slept with his boxers.He put on his shorts and headed downstairs, well aware that Anthony was following behind."Marco," the man questioned.Marco went to the fridge and took out a bottle of water."I am talking to you, boy."Marco leveled him with a bored look, "What do you want?"Anthony stepped towards him in a threatening manner."I told you how I felt about sleeping with my daughter.""Was this before or after you shot my dad?"

I am not going to lie that I will be sad if you kill him but I understand.""So you will hate me?"Lily shook her head, "I will be sad but like I said, I understand."Marco nodded.Lily stretched out her hand again, this time Marco took it and they went home.

Chris paced the floor, almost wearing a hole in it. The movement made Raina so dizzy."Would you stop doing that?" she snapped.Chris turned to her sharply, "Are you mad? You are the cause of all this.""How? Forgive me for trying to rectify your mistakes." Raina yelled."My mistakes? You are the one who went to confront Marco.""Yes only because I believed your lies."Chris laughed, "Oh don't act so innocent in all of this, you were there through it all. You played a part in it too."Raina gaped at him, "You are such a bastard."Chris laughed again, "I know, isn't that why you stuck with me?
