“Your days on earth are over, Alicia. Say your last word and goodbye to this evil world. I will miss you, but don't worry, we will meet in the afterlife when my time comes too.” he said and placed his finger on the trigger.
To his greatest amazement, Alicia didn't show any sign of fear in her; rather, she sheepishly smiled at him and then began to walk up to him.“Stay back, or I will blow off your brain without sympathy, Alicia,” he warned with the gun still pointing at her, but Alicia turned deaf ears to his warnings.Just then, Alicia grabbed his hand and lifted the gun to her temple, and properly placed it there, so he could blow off her brain as he said.“Go ahead and shoot me, Antonio.” she conversed with him as though she were threatening him.Antonio became cold as he wondered why Alicia wasn't scared of the gun in his hand.Does she have some magic that she thinks will protect the bullet from penetrating her skull or whaIt was another beautiful day, and Sharon took the guard who was sent by Gregory to go with Sharon and convince Aidan she and Gregory weren't dating.However, she tried calling Aidan to inform him that she was coming with someone who was going to prove her innocent, but Aidan's contact wasn't connected.Upon noticing this, she was fully convinced that Aidan had blacklisted her phone number.Nonetheless, Sharon made up her mind and took the young man along with her too. Aidan's house. She was ever ready to take any risk just to prove her innocence to Aidan. Sharon and the young man who Gregory sent could be seen sitting in the car as they stared at the tall gate with different paint for beautification before them. They were a bit of distance away from the gate. They remained there for a few minutes so that her heart could settle before she could horn because she knew the gate wouldn't automatically open for her like the way it does f
Aidan's smirk suddenly turned to a chuckle as he continued reading the letter until he was done reading it.Sharon's mind was restless as she gulped and eagerly waited for Aidan to say something after reading everything.When he was done reading everything, he proceeded and brought the pictures that were attached to the letter.He intensively fixed his gaze on the pictures in his hand. He tried hard not to get angry because he had nothing to do with Sharon again, but he found himself frowning at the pictures. The more pictures he sees, the angrier he gets.“Fantastic,” Aidan muttered and nodded his head.Even when he smiled, Sharon could tell how hard it was for him to wear that fake smile on his face; it wasn't genuine, and it was clear in his expression.“So…” Aidan began and Sharon swallowed hard. “ You came to make me feel jealous, or what? Because I consider this as absolute rubbish. Just because I was committed to
A week later… Sharon was preparing to leave for the office. Her business was still down, yet she wasn't ready to easily give up on a business she suffered to bring up.However, Sharon had to forget about Aidan and focus on her life. She made up her mind never to go into a relationship with any man anytime soon.She aimed to raise her business by herself and nothing more. Not only that, but she was the only one her family was looking up to, and she had to work hard to provide for their needs. No, they become poor as they were back then.Immediately she was done dressing up, she grabbed her briefcase. As she was about to carry her phone from the bed, a call came in, making her pause for a moment.She stared at the phone screen for a few minutes as she was lost, who was calling her with a new line. It was an unknown caller who was ringing her phone.After allowing the phone to ring for a while, she finally picked up the caller, but she didn't say a word after picking up the call.“Good
“I'm expecting a visitor today. Ensure he doesn't come into the company with anything, except his phone. Make sure you investigate him thoroughly.” Sharon informed the company head guard, who was standing before her with his head bowed. “Yes, madam. You have nothing to worry about. We have everything under control.” the head guard promised her with a slight bow. “Good. I trust you.” Sharon nodded with a calm face. “Thank you, Madam.”Immediately they were done discussing, the head guard assisted her by receiving her briefcase. He followed her into the company.All her workers welcomed her as usual. After the greetings, the head guard followed her to her office as they took the same elevator.A few minutes later, Wayne arrived at the company. The head guard did just as Sharon had commanded him earlier. He recalled how one of his boss's companies was burnt down. So, he wouldn't want that to repeat itself again. Before
“Yes, what I said just now is nothing but the truth. I have been wanting to tell you this, but I was scared that my family and I would be in great trouble. So, I reserved it to myself.” Mrs. Larissa confessed with a sad expression.Silence reigned amidst them for what seemed like an eternity, as Sharon was in disbelief that she still had people who were working against her progress.However, the first person who popped up in her mind whom she thinks can easily do that to her was Kate and no one else.Sharon believed that only Kate was her enemy presently. Maybe Gregory, but she felt it would be hard for Gregory to do such a thing just because she refused to marry him.Nonetheless, she was fully aware that people stopped patronizing her products before she could get to know Gregory.“Hmm… ma'am, can you please tell us who this person is?” Wayne finally broke the silence among them.“Yes, Madam. We would be glad if you reveal to us who this is, please…” Sharon fell to her knees and plead
“Hey! Hey! Listen, Mia. You don't need to panic. I know you can do this. It isn't a big deal.” the lady said to the person on the phone as she stood by a corner of a shopping mall where there was no CCTV camera.“Alicia, this is risky. Why would you fall in love with your mistress's boyfriend in the first place? You shouldn't have done that.” Alicia's best friend, Mia, scolds her for admiring Antonio to the point that she wants to torment her mistress, so she can break up with her boyfriend, Antonio. “Mia,” Alicia called out.“ I can't believe that you are the one saying this. Didn't I say this before now?”“Yeah, you told me, but you never told me that we would secretly torment your mistress until she leaves Antonio for you. Come on, speak like a wise lady as you are, Alicia.” Mia smirked.“Well, I can see that you are not ready to assist me as your best friend. But no problem with it. I have other friends who are 100% ready to help me with this. Never should you call me your friend
“What the hell was that for, Antonio? Why do you worship Gregory like your God, huh?” Kate complained as she dropped off the car.“It isn't what you are thinking, Kate. Gregory is just my friend who I respect very much.” Antonio responded with a worrisome face as he stood before her.“What do you mean, Antonio? Why would you be having fun with your lover, and he would send you on an errand, and you obeyed and went? Do you know what he told me when you left, huh?” “What?”! Antonio mouthed, wondering what Gregory must have said behind him. “ What was it that he said to you?” he curiously inquired.“I won't tell you. Go and find out for yourself. The only thing I can tell you right now is to stay away from Gregory because he is a hypocrite and a betrayal of whom you think is a faithful friend.” she announced to him. “ Secondly, this marks the last time I will follow you to any club!” As soon as she said that, she turned around to leave, Antonio grabbed her hand from behind; robbing her
“To where? I see no reason we should leave the house because someone is threatening you. The best thing to do is to break up with your boyfriend and that's all.” Alicia suggested.“I can't do that, Alicia. Antonio and I have been in a relationship for a long time now, and he has proposed to me. How do you expect me to end the relationship just like that? Do you think it's easy? Uh?” Kate declined.“Trust me, moving away from this house doesn't mean you would be safe, madam. Who knows if the person will begin to spy on you now? I'm certain that this lady is Mr. Antonio's second girlfriend…”“Enough, Alicia!” Kate cut into her statement. “Do not label my boyfriend as a cheater. Do you hear me?”!“You seem to have been blinded by love, madam. Why are you finding it difficult to see that this young man is a playboy? Who proposes to a lady and then finds it hard to fix a wedding day? Kindly think about that, and you will understand what I'm saying.” Alicia smirked and rolled her eyes with
