Angelica beamed with joy as she left her father-in-law's room, feeling a weight lift off her shoulders. She had been nervous about their conversation, but it had gone better than she could have hoped.

“Yes I did it! Yes!” I smirked as I walked out. I couldn't wait for Xaveir to hear this. He would be so happy to know that everything went the way I planned it.

    Clarissa stood frozen, “had Bella said something?” She thought to herself as she turned to face Angelica. “What about Oliver? Has he made contact?” Clarissa asked in a rush. Angelica saw an emotion flash between her sister’s eyes, but she couldn’t be sure, right now they were just enemies who had a common goal and that was Oliver. “No not yet, but I thought I would check in on you, has Bella said anything” Angelica asked. Each sister stood stiff, with their mind burdened with mischief, Angelica knew how much of a schemer Clarissa was. And if these few weeks has thought her anything she knew she had to keep Clarissa closer until she saw the right time to strike. “I think we should contact Bella, I mean Oliver has been quiet for so long, I fear a bigger storm is coming,” Angelica sighed. Clarissa nodded, she hated the fact that Oliver had gone out control. “great idea, I will reach out to her,”Angelica felt uneasy as she watched Clarissa walk away, “Clarissa, I think I am going t

    Oliver sat in the darkest part of the club, with a glass of bourbon in his hand as he took in his surrounding. He couldn’t believe how easy it was to further spite the sisters against each other. It only helped as it took the attention away from him. The scar from the stab wound throbbed, reminding of the betrayal he had faced in the hands of Angelica. The crazy part was that he was willing to forgive and forget everything she had done, but just like a whore she was, she had gone ahead and married Xavier, even when she knew she was hurting him. A dark smile formed on his face, he couldn’t wait to see angelica beg on her knees for him to spare her life. “boss, when should we implement the next phase,” his partner interrupted. “We have been quiet for so long, let’s see how Angelica feels when she finds out her sister dearest had sent me to kidnap her,” Oliver sneered. “darling Angelica, your world is about to crumble,” Oliver crackled as he pressed the send button. “what about t

    Kelanie was drunk, but that wasn’t a new thing, it seems after they had discovered Xavier and Angelica’s union, Clarissa and Alex had abandoned her. “I gave you everything and this is how you pay me,” she muttered, slamming the empty glass on the counter. Her parents had cut her off, Kelanie’s eyes watered as she remembered the embarrassing moment. “What are you doing here?” Her father has shouted immediately she walked into the courtyard. Everyone has turned to see what the ruckus was all about. “Honey, let’s talk inside,” Mrs. Jenkins tried to persuade her husband. Her eyes darting around as she noticed how everyone seemed to be invested in their affair. “Dad” Kelanie cried, her lips wobbling as she took in the look of hatred in her father’s eyes. “Don’t you dare call me father,” Mr. Jenkins screamed. Kelanie could hear a few snickers around them. “you have been nothing but a disgrace to this family, you abandoned your husband Xavier,” her father continued to shout. Her fa

    “Doctor Lee, thank you for coming in” Xavier greeted the doctor, shaking his hand.“It was no issue, I was just doing my routine checks,” the doctor replied.“We won’t take much of your time as this is a matter of urgency and time,” Angelica stated.“I want us to move my father out of this hospital as soon as possible,” Xavier said.“Why? Is there an issue? I had just ensured his room is guarded by 3 trusted security personnel’s,” doctor Lee said.“I know doctor, but I have reason to believe that my father in law is born safe here,” angelica cut in, her eyes in worry.“You might not understand this now, but right now we have a lot of enemies than friends and we need to ensure that our loved ones aren’t caught in the cross fire,” angelica explained.“okay, I understand but how soon do you want to take him out?” the doctor questioned.“I was thinking tonight,” Angelica replied.The doctor tsked, “tonight won’t be possible, tomorrow afternoon is better, I need to get the final results b

    “Mother, what is going on, why is the alarm buzzing so loudly,” Alex groaned, stirring from his slumber.Clarissa had a wide grin on her face, “nothing of importance, honey, the alarm is a sign that things are working perfectly,” she muttered.Alex’s brows furrowed in confusion at his mother’s cryptic reply, “what did you do?” He asked.Clarissa just smiled, “in future you will understand that everything I am doing for you is for your good,” she murmured to herself.“you only have to trust me Alex,” Clarissa said in a firm tone. Alex quickly bit his tongue like a child chided by his mother.“If she said I shouldn’t worry, then there is certainly no need to panic,” he thought.“have you seen my phone? I need to call the office,” Alex asked, his hands parting around the bed, in search of his phone.“Oh it’s right here,” Clarissa replied, pulling his phone out of her purse.“Why were you with my phone mum?” Alex asked, looking at her with a wary eye.“I didn’t snoop id that’s what you ar

    Even with all the palms Angelica had made, she couldn’t stop the weird feeling in her gut.“Hey, where are you going?” Xavier asked, his voice husky from sleep.“I have a few things to do, I’m just getting a head start,” Angelica replied, deflecting from saying the actual truth.Xavier sighed, he could tell she wasn’t being truthful and he hated that he was incapable of fighting for her.“I just finished talking to Mr. Thompson,” Xavier said.“He said they are all settled in nice, and that I should focus on getting better,” Xavier added.Angelica smiled at that, the main reason she had requested for the meeting to be far from the hospital was because she wanted to keep an eye on her sister and also make sure she knew nothing of the change that was happening in hospital.“That’s comforting to know,” Angelica said with a smile on her face.“I just want all of this to be behind us and we can probably go enjoy our honeymoon,” she sighed.Xavier could understand her worry, she had been so

    “I cant believe you agreed to let Oliver go,” Clarissa chuckled, her eyes beaming with pride at her latest and surest successful game.If anything was sure, she was certain that this time Oliver’s hate for Angelica would surely be a catalyst and nothing would stop Angelica and Xavier’s downfall.“Oh believe it honey, I have one billion reasons why I chose to walk away,” Bella replied, her eyes fixed on the road as they drove away.“But Clarissa, I must say, you are one stone cold lady, you sold your sister, your flesh and blood,” Bella commented.Bella was a cold hearted killer but even through her years of work she hadn’t met any woman like Clarissa before.“She was never my sister, she took everything from me,” Clarissa bit out in an angry voice.Bella kept her lips shut, she would only drop the woman at the hospital and disappear for good.She knew bad luck when she saw one, these ladies were an epitome of disaster and she wouldn’t be around to be caught in the crossfire.“I hope w

    “What do you think you are doing here?” Mr Jenkins growled. Kelanie stood shocked by the animosity in his voice. “Dad” she whispered tears flowing down her cheeks, she had just arrived the house and her father wouldn’t even let her through the front door. “Dad” kelanie called, her voice cracking as she tried to speak. “Let’s settle this inside,” Mrs Jenkins said, trying to calm the tension. Kelanie smiled softly at her mother, one thing was certain, her mother was going to make it right.“No, she can’t come in here, she has done enough already, we can’t afford such bad press now” her father hissed.Kelanie frowned, “bad press? If I do recall correctly, it was you that made me literally throw my life away all because of some image that you wanted to protect,” kelanie yelled.Mr Jenkins looked unbothered by her words, kelanie was a grown woman who knew the path of right and wrong.“yes, I pushed you I’ll admit to that fact, but you my dear have been terrible at every decision you ha

    Xavier stood with a smug look on his face. This was just the cherry on the top, proving to kelanie that he was in fact Mr kareel’s son. Kelanie looked at the paper in her hand, they had stripped her of everything. She had no Alex, no money and definitely no house to stay. “Turn on the television,” Peggy said in a hurried tone ordering the maid that stood by the corner of the living room. “Tonight we would be airing a series which is a documentary on the life of Xavier Constantine and how he had missed a bullet, and the fails of a vengeful ex-wife kelanie Jenkins.” The air hostess said. Kelanie gasped, this was what melody was trying to warn her about. This was the show melody was gathering information about her for. Kelanie’s phone dinged, “there’s no way to hide, get my money ready,” the message read. Kelanie didn’t have to ask who it was, it was obvious the message was from Mr Russell. The protection kelanie had from the Constantine name was gone. There was nothing holding hi

    Camera flashed. Melody was the first to get wind of the information, someone in the Constantine’s staff had told her of the big show down that was happening. This was bigger than she had anticipated, her mole was clearly undermanned and she was thinking for thinking ahead.Loyalty could weaver at the right price.Clarissa tried to hide her face, hoping to not be captured by the pressing as the police led her into the waiting vehicle. Mr kareel wasn’t bothered about the appearance of the press, he was in turn going to give a speech at the end of the day. Mr kareel turned his gaze to Alex who looked like he was a few seconds away from passing out. “Alex,” Mr kareel called out gently. “fa.. Mr kareel,” Alex replied, fumbling over the words. It was obvious he was about to call Mr kareel father before he quickly caught himself. Mr kareel smiled, it was sad to see Alex go through the crimes Clarissa had committed. “I will be taking nothing from you, everything you have owned, they a

    Clarissa stood in shock, her first layer of armor had been taken away. Her lawyers had barely spared her a glance, standing with their faces to the ground. “Let’s take a trip down memory lane, shall we?” Mr kareel said enjoying the way Clarissa looked.“This is a forensic and post partum analysis I had done on my dead wife,” Mr kareel said giving the file to Peggy to pass the papers around.Xavier eagerly snatched the paper from Peggy’s hand, his eyes wide as he read through the details listed out.Xavier’s eyes watered as he saw a picture of his mother, her hazel eyes were a shade darker than his and Xavier could tell that he had gotten his nose from his mother.Angelica’s eyes watered, seeing the dejected look in Xavier’s face. She could feel how broken he was feeling and wished he didn’t have to sit through this.“I’m here,” Angelica whispered into Xavier’s ears, squeezing his palm softly, silently giving him comfort.Xavier nodded, his throat clogged as he read through the detail

    Mr kareel had always suspected the eagerness Clarissa had, she had used his mourning period to accomplish her plans. Mr kareel couldn’t remember what had happened, and all his life, he had never been that drunk to the point of blacking out. All Mr kareel could remember was waking up to a sobbing Clarissa in a room filled with bottles of alcohol littered around. The only person to fill in the gaps had conveniently been Clarissa, she had some how convinced the rest of the maids and workers to take a day off.It was also during the period that Mr Thompson was swamped in the office, since Mr kareel was too heart broken to function.The next few weeks were a blur to Mr kareel, all he had was Clarissa and a constant headache every morning from how heavy he had apparently been drinking.It was crazy how all Mr kareel could ever recall was just the first glass Clarissa had offered, and the rest was just a blank space of nothing.Clarissa had been very careful with her actions, she kept him

    Kelanie followed Alex around like a shadow. She was scared of Clarissa attacking her again. Kelanie frowned, watching Angelica and Xavier walk into the living room. If eyes were bullets, then Xavier and Angelica would have been six feet under by now. Kelanie knew it was Angelica that had made all these plans, trying to pay her back for everything she had done. “Fix your face” Alex hissed, looking at kelanie with an unimpressed look on his face. It was a wonder how kelanie still had the energy to hate people in this situation that they had found themselves in. Clarissa sat by the corner alone, glaring at kelanie who hasn’t left her son’s side for a minute. “she needs to leave,” Clarissa growled, pointing her fingers at kelanie. “She is a serpent who has done nothing but create havoc on this family,” Clarissa hissed. “nothing good has happened since she stepped into this house,” Clarissa hissed. Kelanie frowned, she couldn’t understand why Clarissa was still picking on her when

    The house was eerily quiet.The only sound that could be heard was Clarissa sniffling in the corner of the living room.The truth was dropped like a devastating blow, no one had survived it, at least for Kelanie and Clarissa.Xavier sat quietly in the room, his eyes had a forlorn look in them, he felt nothing but pity for Alex.It was devastating how Alex was the one suffering the brunt of Clarissa’s wrong doings.Xavier wasn’t much of Alex’s fan but he could only imagine how he must be feeling.“Father,” Xavier called out in a calm tone to his father.“something is on your mind,” Mr kareel said, hating the despair in Xavier’s eyes.“What is the plan for Alex?” Xavier asked in a soft voice, worry swirling in his eyes as he looked at his father.Mr kareel sighed, he wasn’t entirely heartless, he had made sure that nothing would be taken away from Alex’s trust fund account.“he is going to be sent off with enough money to start up something,” Mr kareel muttered.Relief washed over Xavie

    Clarissa ran after Mr kareel, tears flowing down her cheeks, she couldn’t believe she was about to lose everything. “Kareel, don’t do this,” she cried, pushing Angelica out of the way. Xavier rushed, pulling Angelica to his side, shielding her from the crazed woman. “Clarissa,” Mr kareel called in a low tone.Clarissa saw it in his eyes, his mind had been made up, there was nothing she could do any longer. “We have all been victims of your lies,” Mr kareel said. He wasn’t really in the mood to talk, he had accepted the truth a long time ago, he had only refused to make the information public so that he wouldn’t he burdened by the weight of it any longer. “My lawyers will contact you,” Mr kareel hissed, storming into the room. Clarissa knelt on the floor watching his retreating figure. She knew her husband was a vicious business man, who had survived a whole lot of storm in his years. Clarissa knew they wasn’t much she could do, Mr kareel wasn’t a very forgiving man who would f
