Louisa arrived at Sunton Street and got out of the car, she stared at the entire environment and began wondering where her next stop would be,Taking a deep breath, she mused a little and decided to walk the street some more and then decided to take the route that seemed to be her ex-husband’s favourite route to take his morning walks back then, As she walked down the streets, memories from the past came barging, memories of when she had been married to Adam and seemingly happy with him;“I will walk down this lane with you forever.” Those were her exact words to Adam over five years ago when they were walking down this exact lane, what they had shared was beautiful and she ruined it, especially with her mother being the number one chaperone in ruining her marriage and happiness, She continued to walk down the streets, secretly hoping that Adam would pop up magically, just like it happened in the movies, where a woman would think of her soul mate and he’d just pop up out of nowhere
Adam, Leila and Ariel were headed to the park in Sunton; as Adam drove, country music played on the stereo; it was a favourite genre of his and was fast becoming Ariel's as well.After a few minutes of driving, they arrived at Sunton Street, and Ariel stared out the window, her mouth slightly falling open as she unabashedly stared,“So lovely," she whispered to herself. The place was beautiful, and Adam was inclined to agree,“Sunton Street is now so beautiful,” he added while smiling; he felt goosebumps on his body; it was bittersweet for him to see Ariel happy in this place.Ariel's eyes lit up and she excitedly pointed at a truck across the street,“Is that an ice cream truck?” she asked,“Sure it is.” Adam responded, staring at her from his mirror,“Wait till you see the park,” he told her, trying to brew up more excitement for her as she was elated. “Ooohh, I cannot wait.” She replied excitedly, rubbing her palms together, almost jumping on her seat.Ariel's reaction propelled
As Leila's unspoken words sunk in, he grinned broadly, almost tempted to rub his palms together, he turned his head slightly to glance at Leila, and she nodded in return, her eyes shining, “We make her lead us to her mother, and you have your culprits,” she whispered to him, and he returned her nod. Louisa was in his web, and he wasn't going to let her go, wasn't going to dare let her out of his grip or sight, she was going to lead him to Cecil and the rest. Adam returned his gaze to Louisa, this time glaring with fiery eyes as he stared at her, she looked scruffy, like one who hadn't bathed in days, her gaze was lowered and he sneered, before placing his daughter behind him, Leila wasted no time in taking Ariel from him and hugging her tightly, trying to calm her tremors, “You are safe here with me and your daddy.” She whispered to Ariel, gently rubbing her back. “What do you want?!” Adam demanded from Louisa as he walked towards her, putting a great distance between his
Adam could sense her hesitation, and knowing Louisa, he knew she was debating within herself. He chuckled at the thought and squat before her, drawing his words as he spoke,“Do.not.lie.to.me!” It was obvious she was trying to think of a good lie but he was not going to let her do that, he was rather going to scare the shit and the truth out of her,“Tell me where your mother is, or I will take you to my basement and lock you up for the rest of your life and make sure I torture you a gazillion times more than my daughter was ever tortured!” Adam told her in a low but deep voice, that sent chills down her spine and tremors through her body. Louisa gulped and shut her eyes, daring to open them she stared at Adam and saw that his eyes were red with fury,He was now in beast mode, and she was not willing to take her chances with him; she was not willing to go down alone, as it was all her mother’s evil plan that landed her in all of this mess in the first place. She gulped once more, an
At the border, Stefan, Cecil and Logan had just arrived and Stefan met some of his men, he ran to them immediately to get some information from them about the ship while Cecil and Logan had to wait in the car for him,“What’s the update man?” Stefan asked one of the strange men who stood staring into his car,“Who are those?” The man asked, pointing towards Stefan’s car, referring to Cecil and Logan, ignoring his question. Stefan smirked at him and lowered his voice,“Let’s just say I have some business for the seamen,” He replied, and the man laughed loudly, his laughter morphed into scorn and he responded while rubbing both palms,“Let’s make some good money.” both men shared a deep laugh with gleaming eyes. Stefan was the first to straighten up, his eyes still glinting, he cleared his throat,“What is the update with the ship?” “The ship is delayed a bit.” The man replied, and Stefan nodded and began to pace around the premises, while the man stood, leering at Cecil and Logan a
A figure that appeared to resemble Adam, as well as his troops, was approaching the ship. Cecil quickly recovered, and the more she stared, the more it was beginning to look like Adam and her shock turned into anger,“What the fuck! That son of a bitch!” She uttered with raging eyes, clenching her fist, unconsciously hurrying her steps, as her eyes darted between the approaching army and the stairs, mentally hurrying those in front of her.Stefan had turned to hurry a lagging Cecil and her slow son, and as he did, his heart stopped, and his eyes bulged out as he could see Adam fast approaching the ship,He lost every colour on his face, fear consuming every part of him, as he knew Adam could do anything, and that would be the end of him.Stefan's eyes darted between an approaching Adam and Cecil, and knew right there he had to make a difficult decision, he couldn't let Cecil sabotage all that he had worked for,“Help me in, Stefan!” Cecil thundered in a high-pitched tone, hurrying up
Cecil stared at Adam and she could smell her doom, it was very obvious that there was no way for her, but she was adamant and was not ready to bow to Adam,She was definitely going to find a way to get out of the claws of this bastard. She thought to herself.“I said get the hell away from me.” Cecil thundered at him while trying to push him away from her,Adam was silent for a while, as he smirked at her with a raised eyebrow, his amusement evident on his face, as he looked directly at Cecil,“You want me to get away from you?” he asked, while he watched Cecil struggling to get on her feet,“And What if I don’t?” He asked her with scorn and Cecil gave him a hard glare, shooting at him with all the hate in her eyes,“I would have your head, I would have you thrown back into jail and you would rot there forever!” Cecil retorted, snarling at him. Adam scoffed at her stupidity and shook his head, Cecil surely didn't have an idea of what was in store for her.“I said get away from me.”
“Are you shocked?” Adam asked Cecil as he slowly and gently began to walk closer to her. Cecil, who was now filled with fear, could only stare at Adam, at that moment, Stefan’s words began to ring in her head. ‘That man is dangerous, very very dangerous.’ She reminisced and her eyes of their own accord began to water, as she subtly shook her head from side to side, retracting her steps as Adam advanced further,He paused in his steps and turned to face the uniformed men,“These are the culprits" he informed the waiting women who glared at Cecil with death in their eyes, causing her to shiver,“They are the ones who framed me for rape.” Adam continued, pointing to William, Louisa and her mother. Cecil was speechless as she gaped with an open mouth; she couldn't believe Adam had found out about that; they had contacted a very highly profiled criminal to carry out the foul play, and she had been certain there was no way Adam would be able to get his hands on that lady.“What sort of ac
