CHAPTER 126“Your scar, how did you get it?” Alice asked Bethany, sipping from her cup and pointing it towards the mark. She was curious to know more. If there was even a slight chance that this woman was Jack’s birth mother, she wanted to find out. She wondered how such a revelation would affect th
CHAPTER 127Bethany stood up immediately and her gaze turned cold and deadly. There was a ferocious fury in her eyes, one that suggested the question had ticked her off and she was not pleased about it.She lunged at Alice like a mad woman, jumping on her and clutching her throat. “Look here woman,

CHAPTER 129“My ne- who the hell are-”Beep! Beep! Beep!The call ended before Micheal could finish his question. He stared at his phone, wondering who would be so bold to name theirselves his nemesis. Do they not know who he is?“What is it?” Michelle asked noticing the shift in his demeanour from
CHAPTER 130“That woman means nothing to me. There is nothing you can do or say, mom. She remains nothing but my enemy and I will hurt her severely for daring to lay hands on you,” Jack said to his mother, Alice.Alice had told him the same thing that she told Bethany that forced Bethany to spare he
CHAPTER 131Jack frowned upon hearing that name. Another bane of his existence. What could he even want, coming to his mansion this morning. Perhaps he had come to gloat and Jack had neither the time, energy or patience to indulge in such.“Tell him I do not want to see him and if he refuses to leav

“What?” Jack’s eyes rounded as warmth and Joy filled his heart. “I’m going to be a father?” He couldn’t believe his ears. Was any of this real? Proposing to the woman he loved felt great to him but the joy of knowing that he was soon going to be a father easily truncated the feeling.Jack was ecsta

Micheal knew he was done for as soon as he heard Jack’s voice. Jack sounded ruthless, angry and primal on the phone. Micheal’s heart pounded with fear and trepidation.He tried to free himself from the chair but he couldn’t, he tried to speak again but he could not hear himself. Was this going to be
On the day that Mildred was telling Bethany what really happened and how and why she suspected Scott was up to something and probably behind her kidnap and attempted murder that she lied was just a random robbery, Alicia had overhead them.When she came into the house that day, she had overhead the
Micheal Carter froze when he heard Jack's voice. He recognized that voice all too well. If Jack has gotten to Micheal, that meant he was in trouble and he needed to get away as fast as possible.Lucas never knew anything about Trent, the reason why Micheal wanted Mildred dead was never revealed to h
Jack shut the door behind him as he entered the room where Lucas was. Lucas' eyes immediately snapped to the door when it opened.He didn't recognize the man who was glaring at him. Where were all his men? How did he get past them? How did he get here? Who was he?Lucas was not a man that was scared
Unlike Lucas and his men's usual behaviour, they were not having fun as was their usual routine with a lot of booze, smoke and women.Lucas was weary. He knew he had flouted Bethany's warning and a repercussion was sure to follow.It was why today, every floor in his house was occupied with men. He
