What the hell?! Dean?! Why would he so openly send men to search this mansion? And judging by the time the phone call had happened, Dean called right after I left his mansion. I looked through the rest and it wasn't difficult to discover that they were not able to find what they were looking for. But what was it that they were searching for? Dean is on to me for something but I'm not sure. Is he after me as me Walker or... Is he after me as Trevor Vandelson? I knew I had to be careful in whatever step I take from now henceforth. [Eight o'clock, the next day]I looked at myself one last time in the mirror after making sure that my tie was made properly and neat. I left my room and was about to leave when I suddenly remembered something. What better than to take my wife with me? It's a party after all. I went into the laundry room where I knew she would be by now and she greeted me the moment she saw me. The punishment I gave her by making her my maid and cleaner humbled her after
I caught the fist and kicked the strange person's second hand when I felt it coming at me. The stranger shouted in pain and I dragged him out of the darkness only to find that it was Zane. "What the...! I thought I told you to stay away from me and my wife?! So you do not know what a restriction order is?!" I shouted. "Come out with my wife!" I shouted to the men I knew were still in the darkness. Two men stepped out, holding Clarissa and one of them had her mouth covered. "Run now that you have the chance to do so," I told those two men. The two men looked at Zane and then at each other. After a second or two, they took to their heels. I punched Zane square in the face and he fell to the ground. He sat up with a bleeding nose and blood leaving the corners of his lips. Zane looked at me angrily but he did and said nothing. After Zane was finally gone, Clarissa jumped into my arms. "Thank you so much!" Clarissa said to me as she cried on my chest. I patted her on the back. "Ever
I returned from the restaurant with Clarissa. She was so happy throughout even until we reached home. I couldn't believe this was the same person I was who had hated her in the past. Why was I fast falling for her? "Um... Walker? Why aren't you coming in?" I heard Clarissa ask me. Her voice brought me back into reality and made me realize I had gotten lost in thought and had stopped at the door. "Oh! Sorry about that. I kind of zoned out there." I told Clarissa and walked into the mansion. "Hey," I said. "Yes?" Clarissa answered while turning to face me. I thought about it again and again. Maybe I should tell Clarissa about my feelings for her. But what if she tries to take advantage of me through it? What if she doesn't feel the same way at all?The last thing I would want right now is a one-sided relationship..."Sir?" Clarissa said. "Hm? Nothing. Never mind that. Just go to your room." I said to Clarissa. Clarissa turned to leave but quickly turned back to me. "Sir... Um...
I waited for Clarissa's response would be and my heart kept pounding fast each second I waited. I just confessed to Clarissa that I loved her. The same woman that made my life miserable in the past was the same one I fell in love with and I still can't comprehend how it happened. "I don't mind if you say no but please don't keep me waiting this long," I begged Clarissa. "Walker... I... I love you too." Clarissa said to me with tears in her eyes.I felt like a heavy burden just left my chest the moment I heard her voice. She loves me too. I couldn't contain myself anymore and I embraced her, lifting her and spinning around with her. Clarissa was shouting for me to stop while she laughed at the same time. I stopped and put her down. "You don't know how happy you have just made me," I said to Clarissa. "Thank you, Clarissa. And I'm sorry for fooling you the way I did before." I said to Clarissa. "It's all in the past now Mr Walker. I forgave you long back." Clarissa replied to me a
"Oh, it makes a whole lot of difference because I do not want that to happen," Clarissa replied to Dean. "Hm. Hand what are you planning to do about it? Stop us? How exactly do you want to start that out?" Dean mocked Clarissa. "I can give you what you long for the most," Clarissa said to Dean."And what is that?" Loki asked Clarissa. "You may not know it but we are getting a good reward from Zane, that is after we succeed in what we were sent to do. Nothing you say could be any better." Loki added. "And I am sure that what Zane offered was not money. It's something else which I am yet to find out." Clarissa replied Loki. "You better keep your nose out of our business Clarissa. You know very well what we are capable of." Dean warned Clarissa. "Uuu, I'm so scared. Someone come and help me." Clarissa said to Dean in a mocking tone of voice. "I didn't come here to discuss what Zane offered the both of you but what I can give you two," Clarissa said. "Just go straight to the point
[The next morning]Clarissa woke up in my bed while I was still asleep. She left my room and went into hers. After taking her bath and getting ready, she dressed up and left the mansion. The only thing that Clarissa had on her mind was the DNA test and she couldn't wait to get it and show it to the twins for them to do the comparison. Clarissa arrived at the hospital and headed straight for the doctor's office. She tried opening the door but it was locked. A nurse was passing by at that moment and Clarissa stopped the nurse to make inquiries. "Good morning ma'am." the nurse greeted. Clarissa ignored the greeting from the nurse and went straight to the point, "where is the doctor that usually stays in this office?" Clarissa asked the nurse. "Today is his day off so he's not going to come here for work until the next day." the nurse answered Clarissa. "Do you know where he lives?" Clarissa asked the nurse. "I am sorry ma'am but this hospital follows strict rules. Such which inclu
Clarissa arrived at the given address and stepped out of her car. She examined the appearance of the building with her gaze and went ahead to knock on the front door. The door was opened by the same doctor she was looking for and on recognizing Clarissa himself, the doctor made to shut the door as quickly as possible but Clarissa shoved him back. "So you did the entire thing on purpose?" Clarissa asked the doctor. The doctor parted his lips but no words came out. "Forget it. I have no time for this argument. Where is the result of the DNA test?" Clarissa asked the doctor. "I don't have it with me. I left it in the hospital." the doctor replied. "You son of a... " Clarissa's voice trailed off. "Get into my car right now!" Clarissa ordered. "I need those results right now!" she yelled. "There is no need for me to come with you. Do you want the result? I make a call to get it to you." the doctor replied. "Make it quick," Clarissa said to the doctor, right after she gave him a sh
Here I was again. It was only a matter of time before I would receive a phone call from... *Buzz buzz* My phone rang before I could complete the words in my thought.I checked for the name of the caller on the screen and I wasn't surprised to see who it was.'Mr. Kennedy Collins'I answered the call and waited for him to speak first, "Hello? Am I on to Trevor Chess?" he asked me."Yes sir," I answered in a weak tone of voice."Oh! Right, You are fired! Do not ever think of returning to this company ever again!" he yelled into the phone, almost bursting my eardrum, and then he ended the call.I put my old-fashioned phone aside and sat up in bed. I stretched and yawned before getting up and slamming my shoulder against the rickety old door of my room so it would open for me. I entered the living room of my average house and took the cup of coffee I had made yesterday in my hand.I sipped it and I gagged immediately it touched my tongue and went down my poor throat. My fourth boss in my
