Just like they always say that injuries might heal, but the scars would remain. This was the case of the mother whom Eden and Eliana went over to visit.Her face was wrinkled and merely looking at her, one could easily point out how she hardly took care of herself.Adam led them into the apartment and stared at the woman who looked up with an expression that showed how displeased she was with their presence.“What are you doing here? And who are you?” She asked the three of them who stood before her, with pitiful stares on their faces.Eden made to gesture for Adam to mind what he was about to say, but right before he did that, Adam already spewed the details.“They are somehow related to the mine. They weren’t in ownership of it all these while, but they’ve come to make amends”, Adam explained to the woman whose face became tighter.Eliana gulped down hard and stepped forward, trying so hard to appear calm, even if the air was anything but calm.“We are here as your friends. All we h
The coming days seemed to be quite normal for both Eliana and Eden. After receiving the letter and not being able to ascertain who it came from, they resolved to treating it as a less important issue while focusing on their lives and charity organization.“Are you still worried about it?” Eden asked Eliana who was lost in thoughts just as she sat at the balcony, with a cup of coffee in her hands.She had tried to take her heart off the whole drama, but she couldn’t deny that she was worried about the strange letter.“Who is the letter from?” Eliana asked the one question that was yet to leave her heart ever since that day.Vincent was meant to be in the prison and that was the basis for their confusion. As long as they were concerned, the only enemies they had at the moment was Vincent and he wasn’t around.“You think Vincent is out of jail?” Eliana asked Eden again, with a fear stricken face.Eden gulped down hard and took in a deep breadth, after which she sighed.“I have no idea. W
Eliana went on with the first plan she had at hand. Inasmuch as she wasn’t the major person carrying it, she was there to suspect each and everything that was been done.Luckily, they were able to infiltrate Vincent’s quarters to carry out the plans they prepared all through the night.They planned to add something into Vincent’s men meal…something that would leave them weak and unable to fight.They were able to do that for almost Fifty men that were present in the house.What Eliana did was simple…While the cooks were busy in the kitchen, she was able to set the warehouse that wasn’t far from the house on fire. This came in as a distraction for both Vincent, his men and every other person in the pack and in a split second, they all ran out of their different locations.Vincent wore a big frown on his face the moment he saw the house that was currently on fire. He could tell that it was a plan from Eden and Eliana, but he couldn’t conclude on that since there wasn’t any sign of them
Celestina stood at the front of the house as she looked around and observed his empty it was the moment. Aldehard wasn’t anywhere close and from the rumors she heard, he was dead.Her throat tightened as she went over her life and thought of how everything changed because of Vincent. Even if she willingly gave in and had sex with him, she was beginning to feel that he only took an advantage of her.Hate engulfed her soul as she thought of means to carry out her revenge against him. He had denied her solely and even threatened to kill her and the child.Each and everyday, she recalled memories of the different times she went over to meet with Vincent, pleading with him to accept her and the child.She also remembered that he had told her to get rid of the child if it was going to come against her and Aldehard.Her fists clenched in rage as she took in a deep breath and picked up her coat. Ever since the wedding with Aldehard, she barely had peace. She was always clouded with thoughts o
Despite all what Eliana tried to say to Celestine against having a revenge, she was still bent on carrying out her revenge quest.This caused her to find out details about Vincent and when she heard that he returned to his mansion, she set out to meet him.“Where are you heading to?” Eliana has asked her the moment she revealed that she would be traveling.Eliana had a suspicion look on her face, especially because Celestine didn’t mention anything relating to who she wanted to have her revenge on.“About the other night, you were so keen to decide if you wanted a revenge. Did you decide to go on with it?” Eliana asked as she searched through her eyes as though the answer to her question laid there.Celestine took in a deep breath after which she wore a big smile and pulled Eliana into a warm hug.“I took your advice to heart and trust me when I say that I’m not making any plans to carry out any form of revenge on anyone”, Celestine said as she quickly darted her eyes away from Eliana
Chapter 81Celestine wore a wicked grin as she walked into the baby’s nursery to grab him. She was glad that everything was playing out just as she had planned and she couldn’t wait to see the end when Vincent would finally fall to his knees and cry for his life.“This may be the first time and last time you get to see your father. But then, trust me when I say that I’m doing you a favour”, Celestine said to her son as she rocked him gently and carried him out of his crib. She placed her gun in her side pockets after which she walked out of the room.Her plan was quite simple; to poison Vincent and send a bullet across to his chest when he must have gone weak.So far, it was working well and she could already see the pain Vincent was introduced to.“Hi Vincent…I brought you your son to see him for the very last time”, Celestine said as she walked into the dining hall and turned to her gaze to the table.To her greatest surprise and dismay, Vincent was nowhere in view. Her heart sank i
Chapter 82Eliana and Eden were out all evening. In the midst of the chaos that went down with Vincent, Eden had discovered a great location and vowed to bring Eliana over once the situation had gotten taken care of.He was glad that after a long time, he had the opportunity to spent the evening with his wife. When they had gotten married newly, they brought out a day of the week which they kept aside for romantic dinners and bonding. It went well for them as that was the major means through which they started getting to know each other.“I’m glad we are doing this again” Eliana said as the soft wind of the evening flushed past her face. Her heart raced with excitement and her stomach tingled with anxiety. It felt as though she have just fallen in love for the very first time in her life.“Thank you for being my wife!” Eden said as he passed a flower across to her. Eliana squealed in excitement as she took hold of it and took in a deep breath.“Thank you”, Eliana responded and for a m
That night, just as Eden went on to sleep, Eliana tossed around the bed right until she couldn’t sleep anymore. She jerked up to her feet and headed out of the room and towards the room where Arnold laid.Once she approached the room, she observed a soft light and this triggered her curiosity. She walked closer to the room and peeked into it from the window.To her greatest surprise, Arnold was awake and with a phone in his hands. She was taken aback by this and for some minute, she went through her memory to recall if she had seen him with a phone.“No”, she said to herself when she remembered how homeless he had been when they saw him by the roadside.Eden had even told her that he didn’t have anything on him and that triggered her suspicion.How then did he have a phone which he was operating?Eliana made to walk out of the hallway, but she missed a step and landed on the ground with a thud. Just then, she heard Arnold’s voice.“Who is there?” He asked, from the room where he laid.
