"Sir, please! You do not know what you are doing!" the lawyer exclaimed. "Shut up! Who told you I don't know what I am doing?!" I said to him. The lawyer quickly held his lips closed with his thumb and index finger and waited in silence. "I already told you what I want," I said to him. "Where is my late father's Will?! Did someone pay you to hide or destroy it?!" I yelled. The lawyer could only shake his head in negative. "Then what?! What?! Tell me?! Where is it?!" I asked, quickly running out of patience. The lawyer mumbled something, still with his lips pinned closed with his fingers. "Let go of your lips stupid!" I ordered him. The lawyer removed his fingers and looked at me with nothing less than fear in his eyes, "sir please have mercy. Please, I don't know anything. The Will was either stolen or just lost somewhere in my house." the lawyer begged, only causing more anger to build up in me. I kicked him in the stomach and he fell to the ground and groaned in pain as he he
Mrs. Wilson POV: What problem my son suddenly had with me was something I couldn't put a finger on. How I wish I shot that stupid lawyer earlier, then that conversation would not have happened between me and Xavier.The moment I shot those cameras so precisely without even looking for them, I knew I had made a mistake. Damn it! That stupid Will got my thinking all jammed up. I looked over at where Xavier was and I knew that I had turned myself into a suspect in his eyes. That lawyer just had to say that. I helped Xavier clean up the mess and make sure we did not leave clues on the dead body. We left in each of our cars and arrived home at midnight. Once we entered, without a word to me, Xavier rushed into his room. I knew that my secret wouldn't last long at all. Shit! This is so fucking frustrating! I went up to my room and locked the door behind me. I went to the drawer in which I had hidden the Will and I unlocked it. I held the Will of my late husband in my hands and hate onl
75"After?! Did you just say after?! How on earth do you expect someone who we've put in jail, someone who we've treated like garbage, suddenly and without care, to give us all those riches?!" Xavier shouted. "Hey! I get that you feel offended by your discovery but do not forget who you are talking to! I am your mother and the first female head of our criminal organization for a reason!" I shouted back at Xavier. Xavier quieted down and paced to and fro in my room, "so what are we gonna do now?" Xavier asked me. "First of all, we need to find Devon. He must still be alive and somewhere out there. We were the first to discover the truth. Let us use it to our advantage." I said. Devon POV: *five months later*Five months have passed and a lot has changed, yet there is one thing that remains without an end. That one thing is my thirst for vengeance. Throughout these five months, I have undergone intense training under Grenade and the expert criminals he passed me on to. It's time t
The next day arrived and I was already up by five. If I was going to get the job then I had to keep punctuality in mind. I was just getting out of the bathroom when I heard some movement in my room. I stopped and listened for any sound that might convey its source. After a short while, the sound came again but a bit more silent. There was someone under my bed. I continued what I was doing and pretended not to have noticed anything. Just as I was looking through my wardrobe, a little breeze came behind my ear and I knew exactly what this person's intention was. With a swift movement of my leg, I gave Mustapha a kick in the balls. I heard him fall to the floor but I behaved as if nothing happened. "I told you to stay out of my room didn't I?" I asked Mustapha, without turning away from my wardrobe. "How did you know I was coming?" he asked me. I turned around in his direction and went on one knee, staring down at him, "you better improve on your ambush, or better still, don't tes
"Madam?" the security man said, unsure if he heard what he heard right. "You heard me. I said beat her up." Mrs. Wilson said, even though Tamira didn't understand what was happening but she did not react to the words of her mother. "Your daughter?" the security man still dared to ask. "You are fired." Mrs. Wilson said to the security man who replied to her with a look of shock in his eyes. "Hey, you." Mrs. Wilson called out to a maid who was only passing by. "Yes madam?" the maid answered as she stopped and came closer to Mrs. Wilson. "Go and get me one of my security guards." Mrs. Wilson said to the maid. "Yes madam." the maid said and left. "What are you still doing here?" Mrs. Wilson asked the man who she had just fired. Still unaware of what was going on, he turned and left without a word. Soon the maid returned with a different security guard, "here he is madam." the maid said. With a wave of the hand, Mrs. Willson signed the maid to go. "Don't make the same mistake as t
"What do you mean no?!" Tamira asked, angrily. "Miss Tamira please do not make my job any more difficult than it already is. I was told by your mother to always be by your side." I replied. "Ugh!" Tamira screamed and came out of the car. I also came out of her car. She stood there doing and saying nothing and then she returned inside. I understood she did not want me around but this step was strange. Where was it that she wanted to go alone anyways? I followed her inside and was always close behind until she entered her room and I had to stand outside. About a minute later, I heard a buzz, and then her voice sounded in a whisper. I couldn't properly get what she was saying even after placing my ear on the door. The door suddenly opened but I stood strong on my ground and acted as if nothing happened. "Are you not going anywhere anymore?" I asked Tamira. "What business is that of yours?" she questioned back and then shut the door again. I signed in relief and decided not to eaves
I took a step backward in shock at my discovery, "You..." I said. I didn't understand what was happening at all.Alex was still alive and well. He was standing right in front of me. Someone I had watched die was standing right in front of me."Do you know him?" Tamira, who was looking confused, asked me.I snapped out of my thoughts and tried to fake as if nothing happened, "No." I answered Tamira."Who is this?" Alex asked Tamira. Tamira looked me over in annoyance."Just the bodyguard that mother hired to follow me about. Even after leaving without his notice, he still found me." Tamira replied to Alex."Mother what?! Damn it Tamira! He is going to tell on us!" Alex said to Tamira, in panic."About her meeting up with her lover boy? Yes. Yes, I will report back to the madam. I am sure to get a raise with such details." I said, faking ignorance of who he was to Tamira."He is not my lover," Tamira said."He is my brother who traveled away for some time. He was just avoiding our mothe
"Why don't you want to tell us who you are? You already know everything about us and you can trust us too." Tamira said. "I am afraid I cannot do that. My identity must remain a secret." I replied. "But why?" Tamira asked. I came closer to Tamira and looked her straight in the eyes, "I cannot tell you who I am right now. But I can assure you that you will not regret being my wife. We stared at each other for a full minute before Alex's voice broke in and we snapped out of it, " Don't tell me you are thinking about considering what he said." Alex said to Tamira. "I don't know why Alex, but I trust him," Tamira replied to Alex. "I will follow with what you want as long as you can assure me we will get divorced once I find Devon," Tamira said to me. Her words were so touching. She never forgot me even after those five months of uncertainty if I would return or not. However, I will make sure to tell her everything once this is all over. "It's a deal," I said and shook her hand. "Y
