Two days passed and I was still lost with Clarissa. So far we have gotten close and she has learned to open up to me. I, on the other hand, am very careful with what I tell her. "Walker! Walker get here! Come and see this!" Clarissa shouted. "I'll be right there!" I yelled back and ran to where she was. Clarissa was smiling and jumping happily. I looked to where she was pointing and saw that she found a road we could walk along. "Great! At last, we will be out of here in no time!" I said, excitedly and hugged Clarissa who ended up planting a kiss on my lips. I froze at first and she withdrew, looking embarrassed at what she just did. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that." Clarissa apologized. Before Clarissa could say a word more, I drew her in and pierced my lips against hers. She looked shocked by the time I was done. We walked together hand in hand without saying a word to each other. Eventually, a car came into sight and we tried our very best to stop it. The car stoppe
"Well? Tell us." the policeman said to Clarissa. Clarissa faced Zane and gave her answer to the policeman's question. "No. He did not kidnap me. What Mr Walker said was the truth. We only got lost." Clarissa explained. Zane looked as if he was just spat on. "How dare she go against me like that? Just wait and watch what I will do to you once we get back home." Zane thought to himself. "Well, I guess our job here is done." one of the policemen said. They began to leave without even rendering an apology and Blake called them back with just a few words. "Not just your job here is done but your job as a policeman is finished," Blake said. The policeman he was referring to turned around with a nasty smirk on his face, "was that supposed to be a threat?" the policeman asked Blake. "No. It is a confirmation." Blake replied and the policeman returned and stood right in front of Blake, challenging him. "Go ahead and do your worst. My boss won't fire me just because he was told to do s
I quickly walked down the stairs and stood a safe distance from Clarissa's room. As expected, my brothers followed me. "What is wrong with you three?" I asked them. "Nothing. We just haven't seen you in love before." Kevin replied. "I am not in love with anyone. That lady there was Clarissa Charles and she is my enemy. I thought I told you guys about my plans. All I have to do is get married to her and then I can use that as a means to reach the twins." I explained. "I don't know Trev..." I put my hand over Kevin's mouth before he could say my real name and I looked about. "Be careful with the way you speak," I warned him and removed my hand. "My name is Mr Walker and nothing else," I added. "Alright, Mr Walker. I was only going to say that what we witnessed did not look anything like acting. Are you sure that you are not catching feelings?" Kevin asked me. "Me? Catching feelings? Any other option would be better than Clarissa." I retorted. "I don't know..." Blake said. "Seems
I called Clarissa and she picked up, "he's gone now. You can come home." I said. "Thank you so much for this Mr Walker. I appreciate it." Clarissa said to me. "You're welcome, dear. Just hurry up. I will be waiting." I said and ended the call. Clarissa herself had no idea I had recorded our conversation from last night. And by the time she reaches here, she will meet with a surprise of her own. A few minutes later, Clarissa walked through the gate and met me standing in front of the building. Clarissa rushed to hug me and she thanked me multiple times. "There is one more thing," I said to Clarissa. "What is it?" Clarissa asked me. I took out a box from my back pocket and went down on one knee in front of Clarissa. Clarissa gasped and covered her mouth with both of her hands when I opened the box to reveal a diamond ring in it. "Clarissa Charles, will you marry me?" I asked her. It took Clarissa a while before she could get everything straight and speak up. "Walker I'm sorry b
"We went there and saw all the maids and security guards leaving," Loki said, into his phone. Loki and Dean were parked at the side of the road, not so far from Clarissa's home and Loki was on a phone call with Zane. "I don't know what you two plan on doing about that man but I want that business he took from me back. After I get it I will make sure not to rat you and your twin brother out about everything I know." Zane said to Loki. "And you better make sure you stick to your word," Loki said to Zane. "That's not something you have to worry about," Zane replied. The call was ended and Loki turned his attention to deal who was waiting for him to finish the call. "What do you make of this whole situation?" Dean asked Loki. "I think this Mr Walker has a hidden objective. There is something that he is after and surely he must have come in conflict with Zane in the past." Loki replied to Dean. "Very true. It doesn't make much sense if he comes out of nowhere and goes ahead to target
I continued with the workload I had in my office and my phone rang. Probably, my brothers are calling to check up on me. I checked for the caller and instead of the name of one of my brothers being on it, it was a call from an unknown number. I answered the call and I recognized the voice speaking. "Good day me Walker. This is Loki Vandelson speaking." Loki said to me. "Happy to be hearing from you Mr Loki," I replied. "I called because of your partnership offer. Says in the documents that you would like a merge between our companies." Loki told me. "Yes. I made sure to do some research on your and your brother's companies. compared to others, yours are the best for the merger." I replied. "So what do you think about it?" I asked Loki. "I think it's best we meet in person and discuss it." Loki offered. "No problem. When do you want the meeting?" I asked Loki. "Let's say... By eight o'clock. Today of course." Loki answered. "Alright. I think my schedule is cleared by then. See
"Of course, we are friends me, Dean. That's why I'm going to cancel the meeting and attend your party." I said to Dean. "Wonderful. I'll be expecting the best out of you. It's not a party for the poor after all." Dean told me. I clenched my fists in anger, remembering how I was treated in my past life. No matter how my anger was, I never let it show on my face. I relaxed my hands and smiled, "I'm not a poor man so, you should indeed expect the best." I replied Dean. We shook hands and I left his mansion and entered my car. "Where to Sir?" my driver asked me. "My home," I answered. While the driver was driving, I couldn't help but let my mind trail off. What was all that for? This was supposed to be strictly business. I know I planned to be close to Dean and Loki Vandelson but they're offering my friendship on their own is suspicious to me. Do they suspect something? But how would they? I only married Clarissa and for some time, I never made any contact with them so why this tac
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
