Louis called out in surprise.
"What a welcome, I thought you are going to stay a long time in the east? Why are you back so early?" Marina asked her cousin bella."Grandma wanted me back, apparently your branch has caused grave damage to the group".Bella retorted back.
"Louis, are you sure you brushed?""Mhm, what are you asking?""Ah! I couldn't tell since your mouth is so smelly like you ate a cow dung. No matter how poor, Zachary is your sister's husband. Talking to him like that, have you got no respect"." And you, Marina, You stood still watching them?""I have only been gone for a short while and this is what our prestigious family has fallen to, it's so shameful"Every word from bella pierced marina right in the gut. "You bitch, I have always won you in everything,you must be gloating now I am in a fix, Right?""But You still won't compare to me, I am from the main branch unlike you from the side branch. Don't think you're superior to me, you are useful for a short while now, when this mess is over, you get butted out again"marina replied angrily."That's rude, marina, she is your cousin, calling her a bitch is too much" Zachary who had been silent all this while observing this new family of his interjected."You, just stop, you are siding with my enemy? What is your problem, Zachary""You have no money, no family, no business, the least you can do is support me, be on my side unconditionally, is that so hard for you?""My parents are right, you are just useless, I hate you" Marina said as she stormed out of the room."I'm sorry? This is probably my fault, "Bella said as she stepped closer to Zachary."It's okay, marina has a lot on her head, it's normal for her to overreact on things like this".Zachary didn't really blame marina, she is right after all, he really has no capital to speak in this family, the world respects the strong and right now, he is anything but that.
"Do we know each other, you seem familiar?"Zachary asked Bella whose face was 90% similar to Marina, the only difference was the eyes which seemed so familiar as if he had lived a decade with her.
"You remember me?" Bella asked with a hint of surprise and excitement in her voice."No, I can't remember any of you, but you really look familiar, you give me a really close feeling, so do you know me?"."I know you, you are my cousin's husband, how else am I supposed to know you?"."No, you know me more than that, I am sure"."Why don't you find out yourself, our relationship, have this, is not much but I really am broke too" marina said as she handed $100 to Zachary.Zachary glanced at bella in surprise before muttering"I don't need this, you can have it back"......" Marina, what is this I heard, you rejected Blake again? Are you crazy"a cup smashed beside Marina's feet."Grandma, I am married, how can I accept another man, let's look for another way, Blake isn't the only help we can get"."you stupid girl, Blake is the son of the acting director of ZZ conglomerate. That's a hegemon in the business world, small companies like ours can't hold a candle to them. Even if he's just an illegitimate son, it's still more than enough to save us all"" What!!! I thought he was the director of X-treme, how did he get related to the ZZ conglomerate?"the shocked Marina asked."I found out through the help of an old friend, apparently the news is under wraps for now but that not the point, the point is that you humiliated him for that useless husband of yours, now all our previous investors are pulling out if our projects, we can't hold on for much longer, your cousin bella is supporting but it's not much help"."Marina, I know you, you don't really love Zachary, do you? Your competitive spirit made you steal Bella's opportunity to end up with him. Now you have ended up with trash?"." Think about Blake's proposal, I will expecting your answer tomorrow or I may just replace you with bella, she isn't you but I don't think he will care".
"I will do it, I will accept Blake"Marina screamed.Seeing this, grandma Anderson sneered in disgust " As expected, you couldn't overcome the competitive spirit inside you, see you tomorrow, Marina".Marina sat in the bed and recalled her two years with Zachary " it was so fun and peaceful, how you would protect me from bullies, your warmth in the rainy days, your delicious meal, your funny stories"." Zachary, though I didn't marry you because of love and I hurt you in so many ways, you still forgave me, you forgive me for this as well"Marina thought as she smiled at the picture.(The next day)"Mhm, what is that delicious scent? "Marina yawned as she woke up."Wake up, sleepy head, I made honey water and chocolate cake coated with strawberries,"Zachary said as he brought over a plate."You still remember bringing me honey water every morning, didn't you lose your memories?""I wrote all your likes and dislikes in my diary, I just looked through it, marina I want you to know that I care about you, you are my wife and that wouldn't change "."thank you so much, but we need to move to the sitting room quickly"marina said in guilt as she didn't even dare to make eye contact with Zachary"...." Marina, I hope you are ready, put on your best outfit"grandma Anderson said to marina over the dinner table"."Ehn, grandma, as for that, can I just consider it...""No, be firm marina, Look at the person you are choosing over Blake. Apart from being a professional house help, what else does he do?Can he feed you when we finally go bankrupt?". Grandma roared in anger
Her words made marina glance at Zachary who was going to and fro the kitchen " grandma's right, Zachary is just useless to me now, I will just give Blake what he wants just this time, no body will know at all and I get to enjoy the best if both men"marina thought as her face brightened killing any last shred of guilt she had....."Mrs. Marina Anderson, to what do I owe the pleasure of you coming ?"Blake asked with a gentlemanly expression."Blake, I agree to your proposal, please save the Anderson's group" Marina pleaded.Seeing such a ravishing beauty such as marina begging him, Blake's lustful tendencies burst out as he manhandled marina and kissed her lips forcefully.Marina struggled for some time before she fell prey to her lust." Mhm, you are still a virgin! "Blake asked in surprise as he stared at Marina naked body." I, I... I told Zachary to become rich before he claims me, we don't even share the same room"Marian replied embarrassed." What a moron of a husband, he didn't even enjoy you, well he won't be able to enjoy you anymore because you are mine "Blake said viciously."and as for you, you are mine and I will help your Anderson's group"Blake comforted marina as they began their disgraceful affair.(2 hours later )"You were good, I hope we get to do this again sometime "Blake said as he handed her a check and some important business information." Marina scanned through the information, with this information she could save her family's group, the more she read she felt she Made the right choice "" Thanks so much, Blake, I love you so much,"Marina said as she kissed Blake."really? More than your husband? "Blake asked teasingly." Of course, I love you the most,by the way I got to go now, see you later babe''Marina got up and exited happily."Tch, I want to see your expression Zachary after you watch this" Blake grinned as he sent his sexual video to Zachary....."Mhm, who is this loser?Does he have nothing better to do?" Zachary sneered as he saw an anonymous message and video about his wife."Again, what the hell is wrong with this person?" Zachary asked in anger as the same message popped out again.Finally for the third time, Zachary decided to satisfy his curiosity and watch the video."Damn.... What is this?" You are lying, this is a fake video"" Hello, who the hell are you, why are you pulling such a prank on me? You better explain yourself "" Relax, Zachary, whether the video is fake or real, you should know better than me"Blake smirked evily." And ah! Before I forget I just wanted to thank you for giving me just a nice surprise, your wife is nice and tight and she's such a bitch in bed. I enjoyed our session together and it won't be the last of it "Blake smirked as he cut off the call.He didn't know why but from the first day he met Zachary, he felt nothing but hate and a desire to take away everything from him.
"Shit, you bastard, Zachary cursed as he slammed his phone on the wall. Of course he knew the video was real but he really couldn't believe it. From the pictures he had seen in his room and his diary, he could really feel that he loved Marina and that she would love him too.He couldn't believe this at all."No, there must be a misunderstanding somewhere? Maybe he forced her" Zachary thought as he stormed over to the cooperation...."Marina, what's this? Is a misunderstanding right? That bastard forced you, there is no way you would do this to me? Did he threaten you or is it a blackmail, tell me, marina"."why are you screaming in my place of work ? Marina scoffed at Zachary, the more she looked at him the more she felt that he was really useless compared to Blake ."Marina, sorry but that son of a beast, Blake, sent this video to me, is not true, right?""What? Blake sent this ? Why would Blake do this? Calm down Marina, and so what if Zachary knows, he will forgive you anyway" the little devil in Marina's heart roared at her."So you have found out, it's true and I willingly did it, I wasn't forced" marina replied."What! Marina, tell me you're lying? You don't mean it right? It's impossible, we live each other"."It's true, Zachary just lives with it, you can't change anything anyway" Marina replied gently as she saw Zachary's down appearance."What do you want to eat?, my treat, You see, I am so happy today, the heavy guillotine in my neck is down, I feel so free as a dove," Marina said happily unaware of Zachary's darkening face." Let's divorce!"The name of the famous french cuisine that marina was about to mention got stuck in her throat."What are you saying, Zachary?"Marina blurted out confused. "Why did you marry me?" "Hey, Zachary cool down, you are just upset and your brain is hot now, do you want iced tea to calm down? Let me get you some tea"." I said, let's DIVORCE!!!and before that tell me why did you marry me? "" Stop replying to me with a question, Zachary, I'm getting mad at you. I have already said sorry, why are you so grumpy like a baby, Blake wouldn't... "" Oh my , Blake wouldn't do what? Interrogate you, give you a chance to explain yourself or what? The more I interact with you now, I can feel that something is weird here"." Why did you marry me? You are my wife but you call me Zachary or Hey but Blake you met for a few weeks became your babe. Now, you are subconsciously comparing him to me"." Listen up, Marina, all I want is simple, a divorce and a reason, the reason why you feel so relaxed playing
"What?""Mom, I just saw big brother""What are you saying, Zane? Stop this right now, your big brother died in that accident. Stop! Stop reopening my wounds?" Mary Zane's mom cried out in anguish."But, Mom he looked just like me and even more like dad plus he also has our family initials Z in his name. Mom, just maybe he might big brother, can we try him?""True but he may be a fake, downtown city is your uncle's turf, it is so easy for him to make someone pass under the knife to get a resemblance to you. And Zachary is quite a common name so we can't conclude anything""The best bet will be the birthmark in your brother's arm. It is the seven constellations, the big dipper representing wealth and luck. Even your uncle isn't aware of the birthmark in your brother""I understand Mom, But I have a strong feeling for this Zachary. I eagerly wait for my next meeting with him"Zane sighed as he hung up the phone. "Zachary, don't be a fake . I am rooting for you to be my big brother "the
"WHAT, you must be joking, Bella's an Anderson, why will she turn against her own family?""She is not! She was adopted by a branch family of the Anderson's but Marina's family caused their death. Marina's dad caused her father to die in an accident and her mom died from depression" kose exhaled."But, how come she never told me? I knew her before you do" Zachary asked, puzzled."She was sent away by Marina's family to the east and you cut off all contacts with us. Bella only found out when she went to the east and she tried telling you but you weren't reachable so she came to us""Us, who are the the Us? "Zachary hurriedly interrupted." I have to hand it to you, you are a good listener, zachi. Us refers to I and kitty"" Yes, before you ask, she is still messy and a brat but she cried the hardest when you left"kose said as he took a long exhale."Do you have Bella's contact, I want to speak to her?""She will come to the dorm soon enough, maybe in three days time, for now, let's foc
"WHAT""Dad, tell me this is a prank? It can't be real? Zachary is a broke guy? "The gobsmacked Blake refused to believe it.Seeing Blake's destitute appearance, Zephyr sneered in disgust "a prank, I wish but it's not. I found out 2 years ago when I bumped into him, he was wearing the elk locket. The locket my brother's child was wearing when he got lost""That explains nothing, it could be he has his own or maybe he stole it? Can you prove anything with that?" "That locket is the only one in the world, you idiot. And do you think genes is a joke Just cause you are an illegitimate child, the DNA test proved Zachary is my brother's son"" After all I have gone through to destroy my brother and his family, you bastard ruined everything "zephyr roared in anger as he smacked the lightheaded Blake.Blake raged with fury and embarrassment but he couldn't show it as he was still counting on zephyr to survive " dad, what are we going to do now? "" You are still asking that? I have already s
"Marina, hahaha hahaha, it seems I was wrong, you are not a one night stand, you are a regular night stand. Pfft hahahahaha "Bella laughed out loud. Marina's face alternated between white and green as she heaved angrily. How could Blake speak to her in such a tone like she was a prostitute and Bella's laughter was so gritting." Shut up"Marina screamed as she ran upstairs. The faces of all the Anderson's were equally green and red as they looked embarrassed.Louis who had previously been begging about his sister quietly retreated to one side to avoid the eyes of his gloating cousins who were fawning in them some minutes ago."Ah! So the main branch didn't tell us Marina had this sort of identity. Thus won't do, we should quickly find a lady to attract Blake's attention, our family can't avoid to lose Blake and it is so obvious that marina is not important to him" Sara Marina's aunt from the second branch who was always at loggerheads with her chimed in."Sara, you bitch, if not for M
"Zachin, you are alive, that's great" grandma Fachin bawled her eyes out. She was a strong woman but now she was crying so miserably." You survived the disaster, that's great but your father, your father.... He... He couldn't let liveeee, ahhhh"" Grandma, I promise I will find that person who did that and bring him to his knees"Zachary hugged Fachin." Alright, let's forget that unpleasant experience, what matters is that Zachary is here with us alive and well"Mary interrupted the old woman who was about reminiscing." Right! Bro has been up and about, he hasn't even had lunch, let's skip all the discussion ams grab a bite first "Zane who was already growling in hunger said when he saw the chef serving the dishes."Of course, silly me, I forgot, zachin come eat, come" Fachin said as she led Zachary to the dinning table."Zachary, we couldn't determine if you still love the dishes from when you were 5,so we made a little bit of everything, I hope you enjoy it"Mary said as she served
"WHAT?" Zachary eyes bulged open."Now there's some real shit Right there" bella said happily as she munched her popcorn happily.Apart from her initial surprise she didn't give a damn about marina "she deserves it, karma is just being a bitch" bella thought."The news is really shooting up at a fast pace, it has taken over major celebrity gossip and has ranked 2nd in just 4 hours". Kose continued to read out."Marina does deserves this but who do you think will release this video?" Bella glanced at Zachary."Isn't it obvious enough?"..."Blake, it appears you failed to convince Marina to join you" zephyr walked towards blake.His gentle smile and footsteps stroke heavily on Blake's heart like a sledgehammer. Memories of his traumatic years flashed before Blake's eyes. "It was always this reaper smile before he cruelly dealt with his enemies""Dad, please forgive me? Give me another chance I will get her to do it" the panicked Blake said as he stepped backwards."I don't recall sayin
"Weaken Zachary's reputation Blake? Imagine the news of the current heir to the conglomerate ZZ ,Zachary black being cuckolded by his wife Marina Anderson? Pfft! The board will kick against him, if you can't even manage a wife how will you be able to hold the dreams and aspirations of an entire organization? "Zephyr said with a smug smile." I see, this is simply fantastic! Just like winning the game before the player arrives? "Blake said excited. The big rock on his chest has been removed with this news." Do whatever you can to keep that news there,if Zachary is really my brother's child, I reckon he must know so he will try his best to take it down so don't let him"zephyr sternly warned...." Who's that? "Zachary roared at the door." Fufufu!! Zachary, how long has it been? You don't even remember my voice again? "An aggrieved voice sounded as a dark skinned girl dressed in a biker outfit appeared."Kitty?" Zachary screamed."Surprise!!!" Kitty smiled." Kitty I missed you so muc
