It was as if the world was spinning when he saw his sister laying helpless on the bed. He watched as the Doctor rushed in quickly, not minding who was in the room before he started on work on Lucy's limp body. All he could feel was panic. Panic and rage. If anything happened to his sister, he wasn't sure of he would be able to compory himself."Doctor," he finally managed to say as he was trying his best to suppress the rage that was so full. "what's happening? Why is she unconscious?"The doctor, who was a short man, looked hesitant. "I apologize, Mr. Leonard, there seems to be a complication. We're doing everything we can," he stammered, clearly seeing that Leonard could do anything to him."Do your job," Leonard snapped angrily, as he started to walk back and forth. The doctor must have sensed that if he stayed any further, he would be used as a scapegoat. He hurriedly did his work, before skittering out of tht room and the only thing that could be hear was the rhythmic beeping o
"I don't know what I should do with, you dimwits." Wiles began to walk to and fro the room, his right hand constantly on the gold ring on his left finger. His hair looked as if it hadn't be washed for ages and he was wearing mismatched footwear. No one paid attention to it, more important things were on ground to solve.The shorter man, Green, looked at his counterpart, Bruno, who gave him a little nod. "Boss, it wasn't how we planned it. If things went according to pl—""Keep that gutter that you call a mouth shut or I would help you do it. What do you mean by that? Tell me!." Wiles stopped pacing angrily, before walking over to where the men knelt, their heads bowed. "What did I hire you for? To be caught and taken to the police station, right?""We are sorry, boss. We can make it up to you. It wouldn't take time to just go back. No one would be expecting..." Bruno's voice trailed over as he looked up to find his boss looking at him with disdain.Not minding what would happen, he ca
The first thing that hit her nostrils and summoned around her like a warm hug was the aroma of sizzling meat and still simmering stews when she entered the well decorated restaurant. Her stomach made a low rumble as if wanting the food immediately. Her twin was so used to making her run errands when it came to food, bless her soul. Not that she had a choice not to, her father was always backing up her twin as long as she come up with an excuse.Scanning the whole restaurant, she couldn't help but open her mouth in awe. This was where her sister frequently came to, which meant she has been enjoying. A young man who had s mop of unruly brown hair and a lopsided smile walked towards her."Good evening, beautiful," he greeted, his voice was as smooth as butter. "Table for one tonight?"If not that her sister had told her about the restaurant's flirtatious staff, she would have given the guy something he would not like. "Actually, it's for a very demanding patient who happens to be my si
The loud whirl of the fan was the first thing that she heard before she felt something vibrate on her king sized bed. Without opening her eyes, she began to use her left hand to search frantically for her phone, which was obviously the cause of the disturbance. The vibration stopped immediately her hand found the phone under the heap of clothes that she had dropped on the bed earlier. Struggling to open her eyes, she peeped to check the caller ID and let out a loud groan. Not wanting to be disturbed again, she tried to switch off her phone, still half asleep. Her phone resumed vibrating again, and the shock of it caused her to pick. “Matilda Anna Montez, how many times have I told you to call me as soon as you are off the plane? Tell me how many times?” Matilda groaned inwardly, stretching the phone away from her ears as her mother's voice boomed loudly through the phone. It was only her mother that took delight in calling her by her full name, the whole thing and she mostly call
Matilda stared at Mia for a second, trying to process what her best friend had just said about the Erasmus man...."You know saying such a thing without evidence against a man of such nature is very dangerous right?" She lowered her voice, trying to allow no one else here their conversation."Look, the rumours in this city are always true and if what they say about Erasmus being a rapist is real, then I think I would be justified." Matilda was about to say something, but a sudden uproar behind them had cut her shut.They both watched as a man engaged his partner in a heated argument, before eventually pouring a milkshake on his head. Matilda felt pity for the innocent woman and even though Mia warned her not to move from her seat, she felt the urge to go console her.While taking a seat beside the woman, Matilda was about to speak her first word, when she felt her phone buzz through her purse. She excused herself and pulled out the phone to see what was happening. It turned out to be
"We have found critical information about the sister Lucy and apparently, she is admitted in the infamous Star hospital." Wiles listened attentively as his informant spoke on the phone."How many guards are with her?" Wiles asked."Guards? There is no security threat boss, it's almost like the man forgot he had a sister." Hearing those words gave Wiles a glimpse of hope. It was the perfect plan to have to end his sister and destabilize the new heir."Very well then, wait for me right there and I and the men would be with you in a minute." It was the moment he had been waiting for, it almost felt like things were meant to happen this way for him to do all he needed to do.Wiles attempted ringing Erasmus, but the line wasn't going through and this made him believe that his boss would have call the shot on Lucy.Heading outside the apartment, some of his men were outside and together they got into the long black vehicle. Wiles had one thing in mind and that was to end it up on one clean
“The maid told me that you haven’t been touching your food. Do you want to die?” Erasmus asked his gaze on the direction of the food. “Death is more pleasurable at this point than living.” Victoria replied with ease. Erasmus realized that she seemed to have given up and at this point a mere killing of Victoria would simply be in her favor. He didn’t want to kill Victoria, he wanted Victoria to suffer so much pain.“You really think I am going to persuade you to eat your food? If you starve to death, it is your choice.” Erasmus finished off and left the dungeon afterwards.Once Erasmus was out of sight, Victoria realized that he didn’t have human sympathy. It was slowly beginning to appear to her that Erasmus would be the first person to celebrate her death. At first, Victoria had believe death would be the ultimate price for all her suffering, but she refused that option, when she realized that she had Maverick to live for. Victoria knew that she wasn’t going to die and allow hi
When Leonard and Mia arrived at Leonard’s mansion, Lauren the cook, was shocked to see both of them entering into the living room. She had presumed that Leonard would be in another city at the moment, and never expected it to be other wise. Mia dropped to the couch the moment and breath in relief. It has been a very hectic day for her and seeing that she was in one peace was one of the biggest thing she had wished for in a long time. “You look really un kept Mia.” She opened her eyes to see that Leonard was staring at her. “I don’t mean it to be some sort of insult, but you need to get yourself clean.”Mia totally understood his point and decided to take his advice. Leonard directed her to the guest room and while she was taking her bath, Leonard directed several other maids to get good female clothes for Mia, once she was done taking her bathe. Leonard proceeded to the kitchen, where she found the old woman cooking and for some odd reason, he was confused as to whether Mrs. Lauren
