Meanwhile that evening, Aaron was pacing around to and fro deep in his own thoughts, he needed to act and he needed to do it quickly but he was confused on what next to do.The memories of the other night at Ethan’s house traumatized him and he kept thinking “What if I had been caught that day?” Aaron thought to himself “What if my mask fell off and Ethan saw my face?”Aaron was still healing from the wounds he sustained from the other day when Ethan threw a glass cup at his back while he struggled with him in his house.As Aaron paced around with his both hands crossed over his chest his mind trailed to Anita’s first plan of kidnapping Nadia, it failed woefully because Ethan had over powered him, making Aaron to run away from the house like a weakling.He knew Ethan hadn’t figured out the person that raided his house that night, not even Aaron’s body stature gave it away because if that was the case, there was no way investigators wouldn’t be looking for Aaron as the main suspect tha
In Miliano’s restaurant Bella and Marco sat opposite each other with the food they were forced to pay on the table, between them.It took a while for Marco’s wire transfer to finally work, when he was able to make transactions, he ordered another tray of food for Bella, they were going to have the dinner night they wanted no matter what.Bella was half way in her food when she lost her appetite, the buffalo sauce and the chicken wings was what she couldn’t wait to taste so badly, well that was before she bumped into Ethan!The flash back of how he had made an open show of disrespecting her by not obeying her wish of kneeling down made her to cringe at the thought of it, somehow, someway he was going to pay for the disgrace and the dust he poured on her face when he drove out of the parking lot.Marco noticed that his wife had stopped eating and was playing with the food on her plate as she moved her spoon around deep in her own thoughts“Is everything fine babe?” Marco asked out of co
Bella and Marco were still seating having a heart felt conversation when the waiter walked to their table carrying Bella’s food packaged in a take away in his hand, he carefully dropped the food box wrapped in a polytene bag on the table.“Do you charge for packaging a food already paid for in take out?” Bella asked rudely“We don’t charge, even if we did I wouldn’t want to get you involved with paying because I know it would take hours” the waiter replied with a bit of a bitter smile, there was lot of sarcasms in the way he spoke that upset Bella and Marco“Hey are you crazy?” Marco asked angrilyThe waiter snared at the both of them with a look of disgust without saying any more word he turned around and left their table, ordinarily the waiter was suppose to bow in respect to them as waiters does to every other customer, but the couples have lost their respect since they couldn’t afford to pay for the damaged food, despite Marco ATM began working after a while of trails, but what wa
CHAPTER 83 The phone kept on ringing for the second time, and Marco didn't hesitate to keep switching it off. He made use of his wide eyes to look at her, but she acted as if she didn't know what exactly was going on. He cleared his throat and brought out the keys from his breast pocket, just as he was about to put them in and start the car. Bella's voice took him off guard. “Who the hell was that?” She turned towards him, facing him. “I don't understand what you are trying to say, Bella.” He tried to be defensive toward her. “All I'm asking from you is that you tell me who the hell was calling you.” She tried to maintain her voice tone so as not to sound harsh. “Bella, I think you are going too far right now because, for all I know, you of all people have never once asked me who I'm on the phone with.”“Well! That's a different case right now, Marco.”“How is it different? Are you trying to defend yourself right now?” he questioned her. “Marco, this isn't about me defending m
“I'm asking because I don't understand your lack of trust towards me. Have I ever done something to you before that made you not ever trust me?” He questioned her. “Marco, you are the one taking this too far. I didn't even mean to hurt you in any way. I'm just here stating the obvious and here you are thinking that I do not trust you.” she defended herself“Can you even hear yourself at all, Bella? Did you listen to what you just said at all?” He faced her. “What I only said was that I see no reason why you are taking this far is that now a problem?” her brows were raised as she spoke. “Bella, that's enough and I won't drag this further with you.’ He warned her with his fingers pointing towards her face. “Good boy! Now, I can say that we are on the same page.”She picked up his phone and pushed it towards him, “Can you now switch on your phone, and let's have a proper discussion like how normal couples do?”He looked at her, hissed at her, and pulled the keys out of their hands wi
“You think you are smart enough to outsmart me, Bella? You are not even smart at all.” Marco spoke to himself with his hands across the steering wheel. Bella was facing the side of the window without uttering a word at all. She knew that it'd be difficult for her to say a word having seen that her instinct about Natasha calling Marco was all a fuse. After so much silence Marco broke the silence“Bella, are you okay at all? You haven't said anything since you got into the car.” “Yeah! I'm fine and doing so well. I just don't want to talk about anything at all.” She tried maintaining her demeanor with a sharp response. “Are you sure there is nothing going on in your mind because this is unlike you, Bella?” He pushed further with his questions. “Babe, there is nothing going on in my mind at all. Can you allow me to breathe right now?”“Okay! If you say so but make sure you know that I'll always be here for you any time of the day.” he moved closer to her with his hands holding the wh
“What kept you there for so long? I've been indoors patiently waiting for you to come inside but there you are acting as if I wasn't important to you.”Bella flared up. “Don't misinterpret me, Bella. I was having a very important discussion with the security guard and I didn't want to cut him short like that.” he cleared her up. “Really? Now, I know that your security guard is more precious than me, Marco. Like, why do you keep on doing this just to hurt me.” She sat on the bed with a strong face. He walked over to her with his hands placed calmly on her shoulder and said, “Hey! Bella, you don't have to overthink it at all. I'm sorry that I had to ignore you even when you needed me the most but I promise you that it won't happen again at all.”“I know you are saying this just to calm my nerves down and ensure that I'm good but I won't take this easily the next time it happens.” She warned him. “I promise you that it won't ever repeat itself again my love.”“Are you sure about it or
Ping! Ping! His phone vibrated again with messages from Natasha strolling in. He inhaled and exhaled uncontrollably before summoning up the courage to open her messages. “You think you can run away from me, Marco. Well... This is just the beginning and by the time I'm done with you you'll learn the hard way.”“Damn! How did I find myself in this mess? How exactly was she able to do something as crazy as this?” he kept on saying to himself with his hands moving up and down on his phone to read further. “I'm sure your security guard must have informed you that a lady showed up at your place earlier today, right? In case you are wondering who that lady is or where she originated from then let me be the one to break it to you that I'm the lady.”Marco didn't want to believe all that he just read on the phone. He dumped his phone on the couch and rushed over to the kitchen sink to grab a cup of water. “This girl is a little bit dangerous. What exactly is she trying to do this time aro
