Silence took over as Christian held the phone and placed it on his left ear."Oho! Who do we have here? I thought you wouldn't pick the call," A cold baritone voice sounded from the phone which was then followed by a soft sigh."When will you return to the underworld and challenge me? I've been waiting far too long don't you think?" The voice continued without a care In the world. He didn't bother to hear if the person that picked the call was Christian or not."Anyways, bye. I'll be waiting for you in the Vertice of Gods. Maybe by then we can have a little chat about life, adios!" He said then hung up the call. Christian stood there for a while , his brain tried to register what just happened and it took him a few seconds to realize that the call had ended.He stared at the caller's ID then tried to call the number but all he got was that the number doesn't exist."Which old man is trying to play a prank on me?" He muttered, his brows furrowed slightly then he shook his head and shov

At the same time. Christian walked out of the venue with a calm look on his face as he waited patiently for Stanley to come pick him up.He had already told him about where he would be and the young man asked him to wait a few minutes and he would be there."So… you are leaving?" Just at that moment, Alice's soft voice sounded behind him prompting him to place his phone in his pocket and turn towards her direction."Yes," He calmly replied and didn't say anything after that."You are such a mystery man," She said, then smiled and stood before him_ a few inches away from him. Christian would feel her breath on his face and that was when he noticed that she was drunk and as he realized that a frown appeared on his face and somehow that deja Vu feeling brushed against him."History does repeat itself in the most unexpected way," He muttered then slowly backed away."You knew you can't handle alcohol and yet you still drink them," He sighed heavily then took out his phone and prepared to

Two days after the event a lot of things happened and the media made sure to do their jobs and keep the most trending news. One of them happened to be Rolando's company, Stephanie's company."What do you mean our sales are dropping drastically every second?!" Stephanie screamed frantically and banged her hands on the table without a care in the world. There were too dark lines under her eyes as though she hadn't slept for days, and that was the truth.'It's because of that foolish man I called my ex husband that is the reason why I am in this mess!' She screamed frantically in her head then closed her eyes to collect herself."What should we do?" She stuttered and stared at her assistant who at times has a split personality depending on the mood she is in."We face the consequences of your action ma'am," She smiled then walked over and submitted a document on the table."Here, in there are the records of all the business partners the former CEO of this place was able to gather and fro

"What's it Stanley?" Christian slowly removed his gaze from the documents he was going through and stared at Stanley who had been sighing nonstop since the time he got inside the office."It's nothing sir," He replied then lowered his head and sighed again."Speak," Christian frowned and unknowingly commanded. Stanley stared at him for a while then took out a box and placed it on the table in front of him and at the same time pushed a white envelope to him."And?" Christian's brows shot at him and the confusion in his eyes showed that he wasn't expecting any of this."Is this your resignation letter?" He added then glared at the envelope then back to Stanley who looked a little startled."Wh-?! No, no sir it isn't. This envelope was sent to you by lady Alice. She wanted to apologize for what happened but couldn't meet you because of the restrictions and you aren't answering your phone and such she had no choice than to send this letter… I never wanted to take it from her but_," He gul

"Quickly someone should save the young lady!""Call 911!""Damn it, what are you doing? Can't you see the fuel on the ground?""Oh Lord, the car is about to catch fire. Quickly save the woman!"…'Is this the end of me? What's going on? How did I end up in this situation?' Alice tried opening her eyes to see where she was but it felt as though her body had shut down. She couldn't move and couldn't speak.The strong stench of fuel filled her nostrils and a strong metallic taste assaulted her mouth.Help!She screamed frantically until she finally lost consciousness.The familiar sound of an electronic peeping slowly woke her up and the sound of hurried footsteps sounded In her ears. She tried to open her eyes but couldn't and had no other choice than to listen to the words said around her."Quickly give me the scissors," A deep voice said anxiously."Here sir!""Sir, her pulse is weak. I don't think we can give her this surgery," A woman replied with fear in her voice."Damn it! We hav

Christian dashed into the hospital, walking up to the receptionist. He asked the receptionist Alice’s Ward number and was directed to the second floor.The hospital was vibrant as the air reeked of ethanol mixed with perfumes and Cologne.Christian took the elevator to the second floor, scanning every room for Alice’s ward number as soon as he got off.The nurse told him it was Ward 223 so, when he saw a door with the Ward number attached to it, he instantly reached for the handle and scurried into the room.Two doctors and three nurses were standing before a lifeless body covered in blood and a doctor was performing CPR on her.It was Alice, her face was pale as if all the blood had being drained out of her.Christian walked towards Alice, accessing her properly and turning to face the doctors.“Whats the situation?”He asked, his forehead forming creases.“Honestly, we don’t know, sir. She is loosing too much blood and we are unable to operate on her due to her open chest. We have t

“You should not be there saying things that aren't true. Who knows? The people you think who are not part are even the leaders,” Alice uttered.Christian stared at her without saying a word. He walked around aimlessly.“I don't care, you should know that,” he replied and walked out.“Damn, he left,” Alice regretted.After a moment of realization, Alice ran out quickly in an attempt to still have a conversation with Christian.She took wide strides of steps and ran at some point.“Christian! Christian!,” She called out while breathing heavily from the short sprint.Christian was about moving into his car.“What?” He sounded pissed.“You should not leave just like that. I know that things are not going just great, but we could have a random important conversation,” she pleaded.“No, Alice. I don't need to rub my body with such things at the moment. I'm not even in the mood to have to argue about certain things I'm not even ready for. I need to go,” he added and jumped into his car.Alic

Chapter 38The wild feeling of lacking the idea about what was jumping on,made Christian want to lose it by the minute.So far, he wasn't able to make good findings about what Stephanie was into. The day had just begun. Christian took a quick shower. He thrusted in some random clothes and moved out of the house quickly.Christian was on his way to the office. He needed to go through some documents.On his way into his office, he stormed into Stephanie.“Hey, I really need to speak with you, “ he said honestly.It's been a while since he set his eyes on his ex wife.Stephanie looked gorgeous and all good. Her hair was styled into a pony, and her makeup was quite simple.She gave him a quick stare.It was a disgusting look.“Why are you trying to mess up my day now?” She uttered coldly.“I don't mean to disturb you, I don't even want to. It's just that I know things didn't really sit well…” Christian was interrupted.“Sit well? It will not be well. I don't want to have this emotional c

CHAPTER 113Wedding bells "Hi, everyone. What's going on here?Did I interrupt anything? I can see y'all are having a good time, right?" Doctor Mario dashed inside Stephanie's ward with a document in his possession. Stephanie's conversation with her Mom was fruitful as they made peace and vowed to improve each other. Personally, Mrs. Rolando instructed everyone to join them inside the ward while she used the opportunity to apologize to Chris for treating him like a piece of trash while he was married to her daughter, Stephanie. The whole family is set to put the past behind them and embrace a new beginning that would be beneficial to everyone. Stephanie's near-death experience made them realize that there's more to life rather than beefing each other. "Not at all. Doctor Mario." Stephanie smiled. "I'm glad you're here with us.You came at the right time. We were just discussing my discharge date before you showed up. What's the update, doctor?" "Somewhat Positive if I must

Family ties."How do you feel now?" Chris asked Stephanie while she lay on her sick bed. She had her bandages wrapped around her head to enable a speedy recovery. It's not even 48 hours yet and Stephanie has lost much weight due to the excess bleeding from her head."I feel some type of way right now. I just can't explain. I can't wait to stand on my feet again." Stephanie responded in a faint voice as she held Chris's hands so passionately and stared directly into his eyes, "Thank You!""For? I can't recall doing anything," Chris responded to pretend he didn't know what she was talking about."Come on, Chris. Don't act like you don't know. Of course, you know what I meant. Thank you for everything. I wasn't expecting you to come through for me in my distress and trust me, I don't take your kindness for granted. I want you to know that I appreciate everything you do for me and more," Stephanie buttressed and displayed her heartfelt gratitude. She forgot to address the horrible texts s

Mrs. Rolando's venom.Heavy falls of snow in June are not uncommon, and only for a short time towards the end of July are the nights exempt from light frosts.The climate is hot and humid in the lowlands and along lower places, but in the uplands, it is dry with high temperatures and a cool atmosphere.Mrs. Rolando hasn't shown up yet and everyone's worried. Her hastiness would determine how fast Stephanie would get better."Have you figured out what to do? We don't have plenty of time to gamble around," Doctor Mario asked Chris. He was taking a stroll when he saw Chris and Emily standing at the reception. He expected Chris to have fetched Stephanie's family members previously discussed in his office."I know, Doctor. I'm working towards that I just called her mom and she'll be here pretty soon. Just buy us more time, please," Chris pleaded.Emily wasn't paying attention to their discussion. She concentrated her gaze on a woman approaching from a distance which she suspected was Mrs

CHAPTER 109The agony of Stephanie."Mr. Chris. Are you there?" Mario waved at the lost Chris to rejuvenate his lost soul. His mind went blank the moment Mario disclosed traces of narcotics found inside Stephanie's system."I'm fine! I am just trying to process everything. I'm still in shock.' Christian placed his head on Mario's desk to nurse his pain.Christian is quite aware that Mario is telling the truth but he's scared to admit it. He would rather pretend not to know to avoid Mario from suspecting that Stephanie is into drugs. He wishes he could visit Jayden at the station and strangle him with bare hands. He's the reason they're into this mess."I want to ask an important question and I'll need you to be honest with me. Can you do that?" Mario asked."Sure!" Chris nodded in a faint voice. His baritone voice has disappeared mysteriously without a trace due to the overwhelming situation.Narrowing his gaze around his office, Mario slowly whispered, "Is Stephanie a drug addict?"

Compound Woes"She's not even responding, Chris. Please assist me in taking her inside," Emily begged Chris. Stephanie is losing a lot of blood and Emily isn't about it. Just when she thought their problems were over, Stephanie's accident gave me another reason to trap them back inside the hospital's premises."Where are we taking her to? I know a nearby hospital where Stephanie would receive the best treatment. Let's get her inside my car," Christian said. He knew where Emily was driving but he just wanted her to spell it out."What sort of question is that? Why take her elsewhere when we are in the right place?Can't you see that we are in the hospital already? We should carry her inside where she would be treated inside." She responded with a harsh voice."Hell no! There's no way Stephanie would be treated in this same hospital. Have you forgotten what happened recently? To me, this hospital is bad news and must be avoided at all costs." Chris instructed at the expense of Stephani

Breaking free.Brandy gritted his teeth, remembering how confident he was a couple of minutes ago. He doesn't feel the same anymore and fears the worst that's about to him. His sense of loss was so deep, that he thought it'd kill him some nights.He paced around the cell for a couple of minutes in his prison uniform looking restless. He can't withstand the pressure anymore."Calm down, bro. It'll be fine. You've got nothing to worry about. You've been restless since we got here. We don't need that negative energy right now. We just need to stay positive." Jayden walked up to Brandy and calmed his nerves. It's crazy how you're calming the same person you're banking on for your freedom."Get your hands off me. You're in no position to say that to me. How dare you ask to stay calm when you know the situation already? You don't expect me to sit down and fold my arms right? I'm working towards my freedom unlike you with no plan. My Dad isn't picking up his calls or responding to his texts

Reconciliation Christian wasn't bothered about his potential arrest initially because he was quite confident of his innocence. He even made a declaration of becoming a Freeman who finally came to a manifestation.“I'll be going home at last. It's been a crazy adventure.” Chris smiled. He was so elated that he was going home. There's no greater joy than seeing Brandy and Jayden being arrested by the cops. If Chris was allowed to have his revenge on them, he doesn't mind shooting them in the head and watching them bleed to death. At least once in his life, he was able to do the right thing when it mattered.“Mark!” Chris halted Mark.“Where are you going? Please come back to me. There's something critical I need to discuss with you.We still have unfinished business.,” Christian called Mark when he noticed how scared Mark had become since he explained to everyone how Brandy destroyed everything. “Unfinished business? What are you talking about? Please make it make sense to me becau

The Escape route.“What's running through your mind now, Brandy? Doesn't it bother you that you might be spending the rest of your life in jail for committing a serious crime? You haven't spoken a word since we entered this vehicle. Are you planning on something I should know about?” Jayden whispered silently as the cops drove them to the station. He's noticed how unbothered Brandy has been lately.“Nothing special. I don't have Skeleton up my sleeves. I just have this peace of mind that can't be explained. I'm certain my Dad would come for me pretty soon. I've got absolutely nothing to worry about,” Brandy boasted. He isn't bothered by the arrest because he knows it's just a matter of time before his father comes through for him. When the cops got Brandy's declaration that Brandy would be arrested, he never argued or fought with them. Majestically, he smiled and walked his way into their vehicle, while Jayden kept arguing and pleading for a second chance at freedom again.Brandy's

Brandy's antics."Emily, is he telling the truth? I need you to be honest with me. You're the only one I could trust right now. Brandy is a jerk. No truth comes out of his mouth.I don't want to believe that Brandy erased all the data. What gave him the nerves to do that?" Chris focused his attention on Emily. She was the only person that wouldn't lie to him. He doesn't want to believe Mark's explanation even though it seems legit."I hate to admit this but it's nothing but the truth. Mark already said it all. If I wasn't there, I wouldn't have agreed to what he said. Everything happened right in front of me. You know what? I don't want to talk about this anymore. It saddens my heart each time I remember what happened out there.My head's spinning right now and I don't want to fall sick.," Emily narrated her ordeal in a soft tone. She's gradually losing her voice each time she opens her mouth to speak. She vowed never to speak until they reached the conclusion."Over to you Brandy. E
