"Taron?" Rebecca asked as Taron picked up the calla.

"Becca? Why do you sound so worried?" Taron sounded tired and Rebecca felt bad almost immediately.

“I am so sorry, were you sleeping before I called?” Rebecca asked.

“Yes, but I’ve been sleeping for quite some time already and you woke me up just in time.” Taron responded.

“Just in time to do what?” Rebecca asked.

“Just in time to talk to you.” Taron responded and Rebecca smiled a bit.

“So, talk to me baby girl,” There were shuffling noises before Taron let out a sigh. “what happened? You sound like you’re down.”

“I’m sorry, it’s just that something happened and I wanted to talk to you about it.” Rebecca said in a small voice.

“Again, don’t apologize, we are in this together; tell me what happened exactly.” Taron said and Rebecca nodded before she realized that Taron could not see her.

“So, Loraline called.” Rebecca said, as if expecting a reaction from Taron.

“Who’s Loraline?” Taron asked.

    Rebecca sighed as she got down from the plane. Her aunt had moved to Arkansas a few years back, and this was actually the first time that she was setting foot on the soil. She waited patiently for the ride that she had ordered and thought about what she was going to say to her family members throughout the whole thing. "Maybe we can start over, a fresh start, j forgive you." Rebecca said aloud and immediately realised how unoriginal that sounded. Reminded her of the sweet, innocent character, usually complete with blonde hair and blue eyes. Not that it was originality Rebecca was looking for. She just wanted things to become better, so that she could have people to identify with who had similar genetic qualities with her. It bothered Rebecca that she did not have a family. Until Taron came into her life, she was well and truly alone. A car stopped in front of her and the windows went down. "Rebecca Torres? Are you Rebecca Torres?" The older man in it asked and Rebecca sig

    Loraline came back the next day, and Rebecca tried her best to ignore her cousin for being so terrible, but she could not take it when Loraline raised her legs up when she was sweeping. "How useless can you be?" Rebecca asked her cousin who stood up immediately to glare at her. "Excuse me?" Loraline said, standing up. "You heard me right, the day I came back home, you didn't come back until late at night, and you know that your mother is bedridden, what if I wasn't here?" Rebecca asked. She knew that her cousin was terrible, but it seemed like she had become much more worse over the years. "What is your deal with that?" Loraline asked. It was her house anyway. "I come here, bring you food and offer my help, and you just lay around uselessly, what does that say about you as a person?" Rebecca was angry. She could have been working in her clean, air conditioned office, or could have been with her wonderful boyfriend, but here she was with her annoying cousin who lived in

    Rebecca was waiting for Loraline to make the wrong move. Ever since her cousin’s terrible attitude yesterday, all Rebecca needed was one chance to get into a fight with her cousin to put her in her place. Loraline went into Rebecca’s room with her hand on her hip, and the other behind her back. “You know, I need some money.” Loraline said, and Rebecca ignored her. “Please.” She eventually added when she saw that Rebecca had no interest in paying attention to her. “Come here and get me my purse.” Rebecca said and Loraline obeyed. “You know, coming here and lasting about is not what I would call help.” Loraline said after collecting the money from Rebecca. Rebecca’s eyes widened, as if in realisation. “Oh, it’s not?” Rebecca asked. “I’m sorry, how about you give me back my money and go and get a job?” “You know, I really hate you.” Loraline said, getting closer to Rebecca. “I’m not your greatest fan either, leave me alone and go and do what you have to do.” R

    Taron's head was not in one place. He was discussing the future of one of his companies which was suddenly undergoing a loss, and not only that, but leak of information too. That meant that a trusted individual was ratting out, and Taron hated rats. Humans and the animals alike. "We've stopped the bleeding, sir." His doctor came out to tell him and Taron sighed as his worries became less. "Thank you, how is she doing?" Taron asked. "Luckily, no vital organs were hit." The doctor said and Taron sighed. "That's a miracle." Taron whispered. "Yes, but she has lost a lot of blood, and while the possibility of her dying due to that is low, there is a chance that she will pass out for a very long time." The doctor said. "How long are we talking about here? I need figured." Taron asked impatiently. "It might take a few hours to a few days." The surgeon looked away for a second. "Is she asleep right now?" Taron asked. The doctor looked down nervously. "No, actually,

    I took the day off and decided to look after Rebecca personally. I knew it was something she could also do for me so I did not hesitate to make my decision. I wanted the day to be special for her, at least make her feel more of herself and forget about what happened. Maybe not forget about what happened because that would be hard but I could help take her mind off it.I knew how much my presence meant to her so I just wanted to stick around with her. She deserved it. I came up with the idea of making her dinner and I knew she would appreciate it so I went on with the preparations. I called work and answered the necessary calls and sent the necessary messages. I had to make sure everything was cleared and all my schedule was either canceled or rescheduled for another day.Making Rebecca happy was my priority right now and that was exactly where my mind was focused. “The meeting you rushed out from was called off after your departure sir, you will also need to conclude that,” the lad

    Rebecca had mostly spent all the time that she had after coming back from that traumatizing visit in bed. Taron’s bed. What surprised her was the fact that they had not done anything sexual since her return. All he did was feed her, get maids to assist her during bath time and other things and she was extremely grateful for it. She had not known that she would eventually be in so much pain as the surgery seemed to be such a breeze for her. Rebecca was walking around, looking for what to do, as Taron had temporarily relieved her of her duties until she recovered fully, and she had a lot of people at her beck and call. “But I have a responsibility to the office.” Rebecca had said stubbornly when Taron told her not to think about leaving. “And I have a responsibility to my girlfriend. We’d see which responsibility would outweigh the other, won’t we?” Taron chuckled. “I’m so tired.” Rebecca said to one of the guards who stood behind her. “Maybe you should go in and lie dow

    "What are you thinking about so early in the?" Taron asked as he turned around to face her on the bed. "You've been tossing." "I need to leave." Taron sat up and looked at Rebecca, perhaps she was joking. “What did you say?” Taron asked. “I need to leave,” Rebecca gout out of bed. “I’m sorry, I’m grateful that you have been so good to me, for taking care of me and everything, but this place is choking me.” “Been so good to you?” Taron asked in disbelief. “You are my girlfriend, what are you talking about?” Rebecca shook her head and draped a shawl around her shoulders as she looked outside through the window. “And this place is choking you? It’s a very big house.” Taron shrugged. “You know that I am a working woman,” Rebecca sighed. “I don’t like staying in like this, I feel terrible.” “Fine, we would go out tomorrow.” Taron sighed and rolled back into bed. “No, I mean to work,” Rebecca said. “I want to go back to work.” Taron looked like he wanted to a

    “You like to talk a lot, don’t you?” The tall man in a suit asked the lady in an afro who was in their group. “Excuse me for giving my opinion.” The woman merely said and continued to speak. Taron admired her confidence. “I’m just saying, you have been talking for quite a while.” The man said again and the lady turned to look at him. “Preston, is it? Are you trying to limit my freedom of speech because I’m black, or because I’m a woman?” She said. “I’m just saying. Most women that I’ve met don’t talk a lot, it’s terrible, you’re not married, are you?” Preston had a smug smirk and Taron fought the urge to tell him off. “Only by choice, honey.” She said and turned back to continue talking about the last charity event that she went to. Taron was at a charity event, but this one was not set for the night time, and Taron felt that Rebecca had not recovered well enough to start going to these things again. Rebecca, of course, had disagreed heavily, but he had ended up as

    It had been months since the awful incidents had happened, and Selena, Javier, and all the other offenders were still locked up because of the multitude of crimes they had committed against other people, like Taron and Rebecca, and somehow, some missing funds were traced to Rebecca's account, so she had problems with the entire country too. That, and her faking her death was a major offence because it was a popular tactic pulled by fraudsters, and so, Selena was to spend a long time locked up. Rebecca, on the other hand, was doing so much better. She was starting to move during the second week of her awaking, and Taron was so proud of the progress that she was making in her life, and how she was able to forge ahead. "I can't imagine that our lives were troubled by that nasty woman, how did you even manage to end up with her, you crazy man?" Rebecca teased him, and he rolled his eyes "I was a complete idiot, I don't even have anything to say to defend myself." Taron said, sha

    It was the main day for the attack. Selena and her killers were heading out to attack. The strategy she had made was full proof to her but she had no idea there was an inside man and her plans had been leaked. Anthony and Taron discussed on the news Radish gave the earlier. They have decided to let the cops know about the act and Selena should be at least arrested if not killed. “Hello! Joe Radish when is it starting?” Taron asked Joe over the phone. “Okay, thank you. I owe you, literally.” Taron joked as he cut the call. “I am leaving Rebecca in your care, and I believe she will be safer here than anywhere else.” Taron stroked Rebecca's hair and gave her a kiss before he exited the mafia house. Taron had informed his security officers earlier about the event, so he put them in strategic places that would give them the advantage. He also called the police to fight with him, he paid a lot of money for that. Taron got to his house. He kept a gun with him and kept two se

    The smell of antiseptic filled the room. “Where am I?” Rebecca who had been in a coma finally opened her eyes, she gradually came to her senses. The thick smell of the sterilized air, the sound of beeping, the unfamiliar and white wall made her confirm where she was. “I'm at the hospital.” She said after confirming where she was. “Taron!” She screamed out remembering what had happened. “I have to get out here.” She stated trying to move but was too weak to do so, frustrated by how weak she was, she felt both frustrated and afraid, and she attempted to struggle to move once more, but was unable to. The assistant came in and saw her struggling and yelled. “Do not do that, Miss Moore!” She forced Rebecca to lie back down to the back and used the blanket to cover her. “Who are you?” Rebecca asked confused, as she was not wearing a nurse uniform. “I'm Anaise, one of the assistants under the mafia doctor.” She smiled as the added something into the drip.

  • CHAPTER 191

    Selena was setting up an elaborate plan. She made it her personal mission to attack Taron, not him in particular. She wanted to inflict pain on him or so I thought. “So, I have been with Taron and I know every nook and crazy of the house, within the next few weeks, we will be planning an elaborate attack on Taron.” Selena said, moving across the room in a most dramatic manner. She hired a group of men to attack the house. Amongst the men was Joe radish, he was Anthony and Taron's man on the inside, and nobody knew about him just yet. - Taron was at the mafia house still feeling down about now seeing Rebecca when she was awake. “Why are you guys laying around doing nothing? You work, you get paid, no one paying you to stand around and do nothing.” Taron yelled at the employees. He knew was being hard, but he did not like being moody, he did not want to be like those bosses like all the ones who just yelled at employees based on personal matters. “Taron, son, yo

    Taron was too busy, as there was a lot of workload on his head for him to do when the phone call came in. "Taron?" It was Anthony. "Yes, Anthony? What happened?" Taron asked, suddenly worried. "It's good news, actually, you have to know that Rebecca is awake." Anthony said and Taron's heart stopped. He was not sure that he had heard correctly, so he got to his feet slowly. "What are you talking about?" Taron asked. "Rebecca, she is currently awake and she is talking to your mother currently." Anthony said, and Taron was silent for a few seconds before he got very excited. "I'm on my way!" Taron said and cut the call. "Julian!" Taron's current secretary started to knock at the door when he heard his name, and all Taron could wonder was the kind of idiot that he had hired as he secretary. "Come in, Julian! You only have to knock twice and open up when I call you in myself!" Taron yelled and the door opened, and Julian practically flew into the office. "What is

    Selena was pacing around as she waited for them to arrive. She had had this nagging feeling for a good, long while now, and now she was sure of it! Taron was playing mind games with her, just as she had been doing with him. "Excuse me? Why did you text like that? I was startled!" Sarah said, looking at Sarah in disbelief as she came inside the house. "It was urgent!" Selena sighed. "You're the first to arrive, I'm waiting for the rest, champagne?" "What do you mean by that? Who else is coming? And next time something is urgent and other people are coming, let me know so that I can prepare!" Sarah yelled. "But you look good already." Selena rolled her eyes. "I can look better." Sarah whined and went to find a spot to sit. "Would you at least tell me why you did this? Why you suddenly called people in here?" Sarah asked. "I'm your best friend, and you're still going to tell everyone eventually!" Selena sighed. She was tired of keeping it to herself anyway. "Wel

    Everything is too quiet, Taron thought as he got up. “Everything is to quiet!” He said, and his voice bounced off his walls, filling him with some kind of eerie sensation. Taron wondered why the day felt so strange, but then he remembered that it was the third day, and he got to see Rebecca come out today. “Jonas!” Taron yelled with a smile on his face. Jonas was back from his vacation, and he was not happy with how things had gone, but he was feeling extremely refreshed from his trip. If only he was around, nothing would have happened to Rebecca, because he would have been in the same car as her, and even if she drove, he would have thrown himself at her immediately, even if it cost him his life. He owed these people that much. “Going to see Miss Moore, sir?” Jonas asked, and Taron grinned excitedly at him. “You know it!” Taron said happily. “Oh Jonah, I wish I had three of you, one for me as my personal companion asides my girl, one for my mother, and one for my gi

  • CHAPTER 187

    Taron got out of his seat, tired of all the terrible things that had been happening— not that Rebecca getting out of there on time before anything could happen was a terrible thing, but the fact that he could not do anything about it. ‘It’, being the fact that he could not go to Rebecca just yet. All that he could hope was that she would get up from the bed sooner, rather than later. “And now, I have to deal with idiots all around me.” Taron muttered and got up, realizing that maybe it was the office that was making him have such a terrible attitude. People did not want to deal with that! He didn’t even like dealing with himself in this mood, and Taron remembered that he had made the decision to be a wonderful boss. Snapping at anyone who asked about Rebecca, biting his employees heads off for the smallest, excusable things? When did he turn to this? Taron knew that he was not exactly to blame, but the people working under him did not know that, or about anything that was go

    Selena’s heart was beating faster than usual when she got to her car. She face palmed herself. Of course Taron would have asked about Rebecca, why did she have to let herself panic like that? Now she made herself look guilty. “Stupid Taron McCarthy!” She groaned. Taron had invited her to lunch, and she thought that maybe he would want to compromise by making Javier’s share a little bigger, and she like reject her offer and happily step on his face before leaving, but none of that happened. Instead, he was having fun poking at her verbally and watching her squirm. Even took her food away from her when she was only halfway done with it. If only she had not accepted his invite in the first place, Selena thought. Sarah would think that she was a fool and make a lot of noise about the mighty falling and everything. But it had to be a good thing, right? Selena could not take her mind off the fact that since Taron had called her to tell ask her about Rebecca’s whereabouts, then
