Sandra's SUV sped past some pedestrians."Hey! Watch it." One of them yelled at her.Sandra was sweating profusely inside the air-conditioned car.Her thoughts raced as she recalled everything that happened in the room.'I could swear that the file looked like Elvis Global Empire documents…or were my eyes deceiving me?''And what does he mean by that last statement…I have always been truthful to him.''The only thing I haven't told him is what happened between me and Edward Hinnberg that made me break up with him.''Apart from that, I haven't held anything back from him.''Does he think I am hiding something?' Her face furrows in a mix of anxiety and curiosity as she steers the SUV through the bustling city streets.The rhythmic honking of horns and the distant sound of urban life served as a discordant backdrop to Sandra's internal turmoil.The accusatory voice of the pedestrians lingered in the air.An unintended reminder of the unspoken truth and unraveling secrets that now cast a
It's been 4 days since the day Sandra met with the strange lady who gave her those instructions.Her life hadn't been going great, as each day passed, she could only but wonder why all this was happening to her."Hey babe!" Alex Waynee muttered from the bed.His gaze is fixated on Sandra Douglas who is looking at the mirror, trying to fix her earrings.There was no response from her, which caused Alex Waynee to jump up on his and walk to her.As he held her, she shuddered, a clear sign that she had been lost in her thoughts all along."What is wrong with you?" "For the past few days, you have been looking so pale…I think you need to see the doctor." He said, his face etched with a mixture of concern and empathy.She stared intently into his eyes.His eyeballs were aflame with love for her.The words of the young lady echo through her head as though she were caught in a loop of haunting memories.The strange lady's instructions, the mysterious events, and the overwhelming feeling of c
Her hands were wobbling as she held the gun over Alex Waynee's head.'What if the sound sets off a noise in the neighborhood?' Her thoughts raced.Looking around in trepidation, her heart beating very fast, she grabs a pillow and covers the barrel of the pocket pistol.Staring in his face, Memories of the good times they had together floods her mind.Although their relationship had been kind of complicated, with her parents always picking on Alex Waynee due to their misbelief that the trillionaire is a poor brat.'I can't do it''I can't do it'She immediately stands up from the bed and walks over to the mirror.Tears well down her eyes as she toggles her hands into her hair.Picking up her phone, she scrolls up and searches for the contact who had sent her that message earlier.I CAN'T DO IT.PLEASE, LEAVE MY LOVED ONES OUT OF THIS.KILL ME INSTEAD.Her face was etched with gloom, her eyes welling with tears as she typed out the message.Lying on her bed, she gazed into the dark sky
"Congratulations! You just passed the 'La prova della verità della coppia.'(Which is Italian for the couple's truth test.) and your account has been credited with $1,000,000,000.She stared at the phone in bewilderment, her eyes furrowed in astonishment.Her face was etched with a mixture of surprise and anxiety.'What is going on here?' Her thoughts went on a rampage as she stared at her phone intently.'Wait! Was all this just some dumb test?'Her head was hazy, her sight blurry, she staggered to the table, trying to get a grip of herself, she fell and fainted.************************************************Moments later… Sandra hears muffled noises around her, trying to open her eyes, she is blinded by the heavy light hanging above her head.Blinking against the intrusive brightness, she gradually becomes aware of her surroundings.The sterile scent of antiseptic invades her senses, and the cold surface beneath her hints at a clinical environment.As her vision adjusted, the cont
"How could you make such a mistake?" Alex Waynee's voice barely above Whispers.His eyes glinted in anger and frustration."I'm very sorry, young master.""John Paul is fixing it as we speak, sooner than later the sender's name will be hashed…she won't be able to trace the transaction to me." His voice was laced with the perceived likelihood of achieving the task at hand."And what if John Paul doesn't wipe off the data before she sees it? Alex Waynee asked, his face etched with anxiety."Don't worry, he will fix it before you even say jack." His voice is a bit hoarse as he waves off his hand as a sign to Alex Waynee to chill out."Jack." "Has he fixed it already?" Alex Waynee's voice laced with sarcasm as he plopped into his seat.The rooftop of Savannah's palace had become their favorite spot for their rendezvous.The sun was just setting, casting a fiery cascade of warm hue across the sprawling city below.As the skyline morphed into a canvas of amber and crimson, the tension on t
The journey to the hospital wasn't smooth in any way.The road was jammed, loud horns blaring like a cacophony of impatient elephants trumpeting their displeasure.Each car seemed to engage in a chaotic dance, a tangle of metal and frustration that crawled forward at an agonizing pace.The relentless sun beat down on the cars, turning the interior of the SUV into an oven of discomfort."Come on! move the car already."The voices of angry drivers yelling at each other became the order of the day.The air-conditioner, struggling against the oppressive heat, only provided a feeble relief.Beads of sweat buildup on their faces as they gazed and hoped for relief from the traffic jam.The tension at hand hung in the air, thick and palpable.As the minutes ticked away, the urgency of reaching the hospital intensified."Don't you think we should just head home already?" Alex Waynee's voice barely above Whispers.His gaze was laced with frustration."Let's just wait a little more, the hospital
The tension in the room was palpable, Silence enveloped the entire room, and only the beeping sound of the Cardiovascular system was heard."Grandma! Welcome." Donald said as he plopped back into his bed.Lady Karen had her lecherous gaze fixated on both Sandra and Alex Waynee.Pacing around slowly, she walks over to her grandson. Touching him on his forehead, she asked…"What are you doing with these poor losers?""What were you trying to tell them?" Her voice was laced with trepidation as she yelled at Donald Douglas.Her gaze was lecherous, her eyes beamed with anger.Her words cut through the stillness, each syllable echoing in the confines of space.Her question hung in the air like a storm cloud.The room charged with the electricity of unspoken secrets.Alex Wayne and Sandra's gaze fell on Donald who was suddenly trembling under her grandmother's voice.'Why is he suddenly trembling at her voice?' Alex Waynee's thoughts raced as he looked askance at Donald, who had his whole be
Opening the door immediately, he pretended he hadn't heard anything."Sorry, I forgot my phone…Did any one of you see it?" His gaze askance at Lady Karen and Donald Douglas.They both gazed at him, Lady Karen Douglas pointed over to the table holding Donald's essentials.As he walked over to the table, his gaze fell on Lady Karen's left hand, she held a file, a familiar file to be exact, Alex Waynee couldn't help but gaze curiously at the brown file she had.Just as Alex Waynee picked up his phone and was about to step out, the cold and detached voice of Lady Karen Douglas caused him to shudder."Alex Waynee! Please take care of my granddaughter." Her voice barely above Whispers.Her words didn't only shock herself, Alex Waynee and Donald Douglas stared at her as though she was some sort of alien, her words were a surprise bomb to them.Staring at her, Alex Waynee slowly walked away from the ward with his back.Moments later…Sandra is driving the car at a very slow pace."Alex!
