On getting back to the mansion, Oscar strolled into the building, his pace as slow as possible, thinking about the outcome of today's event. He still couldn't get over it regardless of what he was told about the kind of man that Aiden was. His absent-mindedness caused him to wander into the kitchen. Saying that he was absent-minded is just a random statement because somehow he knew he was headed there, intending to pick a glass for a drink. When he got into the kitchen, he saw his ex-wife working with a fellow maid, both ladies were making a meal, and the aroma filled the room. Oscar averted his gaze from his ex-wife and walked up to the cabinet to pick a glass. When the maid noticed him, she nudged Ellen to go and attend to him, and begrudgingly Ellen left the counter where she stood to meet him. "Can I help you with anything, sir?" She asked, stuttering as she said each word. It had been less than two weeks, yet she wasn't comfortable enough, she would never be. "Yes, just
Ellen could not get over what she had heard from the maid, the fact that Oscar had someone else gave her the feeling that her world was coming to an end and there would be no redemption. Just before she was told, Ellen had boldly stated that she wanted him to get someone else but now she regretted her words. "Uhm, I'm happy for him," she said and the maid rolled back her eyes disdainfully knowing that it was a lie. "So, you are just going to let him, and do nothing about it?" The maid asked her with raised brows, as they both returned to the kitchen. "What am I supposed to do?" She asked, but deep down she also wanted to do something to make sure what she had just heard didn't become a reality. After all, the reason why Micheal sent her here was not to become a maid but a love interest. She hadn't even told him yet that Oscar had turned her into a maid, or that Oscar was the CEO, but she wouldn't bother doing any of that, after all, she had said it numerous times and he never be
"Why are you just standing there?" Oscar's voice brought her back to reality, and just then Ellen realised that she was standing there for such a long time doing nothing all the while. "Oh, sorry," she quickly apologized and took the clothes from the bed, "Sorry," she said again and was about to walk out of the room but Oscar's words stopped her in her tracks. "What is going on with you?" He asked her and Ellen stood there for a few seconds without saying a word, wondering what he meant by that. "Answer me, Ellen," He raised his voice, startling the young lady in front of him. "You know what, seats down," Oscar commanded her and Ellen looked around the room, spotted the sofa next to the wardrobe and gently sat down, placing the clothes on her lap. "What happened to you, Ellen?" He asked again and Ellen sighed heavily, she didn't know how to answer that question or where to even begin because at the moment she was just speechless. "I don't know," she finally said something under
"Just let her go, Oscar," Amy's voice came from behind as Oscar stood by the window in the living room upstairs. He looked down at the gate where Ellen was struggling to leave but the guards stopped her from doing so claiming that it was his orders. "I can't, not yet, Ellen will not suffer for what her parents did, I know I'm trying to get my revenge but I'm not that wicked, her case is little and she'll only suffer as little as she made me suffer, but her mom and dad, they'll regret it," Oscar said. "But that also applied to her, you know?" Amy asked and Oscar turned around to face his Mom with a quizzical expression, "If you hurt her parents," she continued, "And she watches you do that, don't you think she'll be hurt as well, so there is no point." "Nope," Oscar interjected, walked away from the window and threw himself on one of the sofas, "Even Ellen agrees that her parents should suffer the consequences, she will be hurt because it's not in the mind of anyone to watch the
It appeared as though time stood still as Oscar stood face to face with his uncle Aiden in the living room. He couldn't help but wonder why the old man still had the nerves to show up at the Slytherin mansion the very next day after his release from custody. "Why are you here?" Amy asked him the question that took Oscar so long to ask. "Amy, quite nice to see you...alive," Aiden uttered with a menacing grimace, his confidence to issue out threats publicly was very shocking, considering that he was a constant suspect. From behind Oscar, Amy made her way in between her son and his uncle, her expression was full of rage, but Aiden did not seem to care, to him it was nothing but a sheep acting like a lion to drive off the wolf. "Get out," she ordered him, and at the same time, Tom walked into the room only to get yelled at by Amy. "I thought I gave an order!" She snapped staring at Aiden from head to toe. "I'm very sorry ma, I was absent when he was let in," Tom replied and cl
"That fool huh?" Aiden mumbled, seated comfortably in his car, he could only imagine what Oscar was thinking at the moment. He wanted nothing more but to instill fear into the young man and make sure he lost that position. He had gathered enough evidence, because while in custody, a group of elites paid for his release without Oscar's consent, which means that all the while, Aiden had been in his home, staying low until the day of trial where he was brought to the court with a police van making it look as if he was truly in custody. "Hmm," He mumbled, "Once I get him out of the picture, Amy would be easy to handle, she's a woman, what's the worst she can do?" "Oscar is quite difficult to handle, I must say," One of the men seated in the car commented. "Wasn't it Jordan who tried to get rid of him yet failed, didn't the conference hall collapse in the Netherlands while he was there yet somehow, he managed to survive it?" "What?" Aiden asked because this was the first time h
Aiden lifted his head from the floor and looked outside the window, only to witness a gruesome sight. The men she trusted to protect him needed saving because they were bleeding from all over, yet struggling to fight back with the little strength that they had. One after another, Aiden saw his men fall to the ground like rags, thrown to the side of the road covered in blood, if only it were a scene from a movie then he would have not been afraid, but the shiver that went down his spine could only mean one thing. Even before he could think about it, the car door of the car was violently opened, and looking up in fright, Aiden's gaze fell upon a man in a black mask, holding onto a gun. Without saying a word, the man dragged Aiden out of the car with such force that Aiden hit his head on the edge of the door. He was thrown to the ground next to the car. "Please, don't kill me, "Aiden pleaded as he lay helpless on the floor, "I beg you." There were four men, each one pointing a gu
Wades couldn't believe his ears, why did he think for a moment that Oscar would save him from the cops, even Oscar himself as big as he was was subjected to the law, so what difference did it make? Without responding, the cops walked into the vicinity and saw Wade still on his knees, without any sort of violence, they walked up to him and placed the handcuffs on his wrist before lifting him off the ground. As they took him to the police van, Wade couldn't take his eyes off the only man who he thought was going to help him out. Even though it was wrong, he still felt betrayed, and it showed in the way he stared at Oscar. Oscar on the other hand just averted his gaze and walked back into the mansion, he truly didn't want to be a part of what was going on because even he felt betrayed by what Wades had done. How could he trust someone who lied to him so many times, about everything, and ghosted him for weeks like it was not a big deal? Right now, Oscar just accepted that Wade des
