Joanna POV
“What's funny, Henry?” I scowled behind them, and they both turned to look at me with a quizzical look on their faces. “What are you doing here?” I asked the crazy blue eyes as I strode towards her.
“Are you deaf?” I questioned, I poked her entwined arms. “Miss Joanna, you need to calm down,” Henry coaxed behind me, trying to hold my arm.“Just stay out of this, Henry” I hushed him and moved closer to blue eyes.“You are not going to answer me, huh?” I asked agitated and she scoffed.What the?Unexpected, I grabbed her hair and started pulling it roughly and to my utmost surprise, she didn't hesitate as she began to pull my hair too.F*ck the gut she has!Henry tried pulling us apart, but I didn't budge, likewise blue eyes.I tried bringing her head down, so I could give her the beating of her life; but I guess she was so strong. But nevertheless, I willMichael Shaw POV“You mean you couldn't locate her?” I asked the two men I ordered to search for Margaret, and they both nodded, looking down at their feet.“You can't possibly tell me that you can't find her, I mean this person comes to this city often so which means she's still somewhere around this country.” I pressed on and they both exchanged a look. “You need to calm down, Mr. Shaw, we are trying our best,” The team leader stated. “Don't try” I half yelled.Goodness!I rubbed my face lightly before turning to their faces again.“Please, give in your possible best,” I told them pathetically, and they both nodded before standing on their feet.“Be rest assured, Mr. Shaw,” The second man assured with a friendly smile.I also stood on my feet and shook hands with them and with that, they turned around to leave.I watched their car till it finally zoomed o
Tamara POVI was lying on the bed, going through one of the magazines I found in the room, a soft knock suddenly came on the door. “Who's it?” I asked, while tossing the paper aside.“It's me” I heard the only voice that's capable of holding my breath and my heart skipped twice. What's he doing here? I thought, while I crawled out of the bed.I adjusted my blouse and strode to the door.I bent the doorknob and yes; he's truly the one.We stared at each other for what seems like forever and finally, I heard him spoke.“Uhm mm… Are you busy?” He asked, rubbing his temple.“No, I am not,” I replied immediately, shaking my head. “If you don't mind, then, would you come with me?” He asked, taking his gaze to the floor; no doubt he was feeling so shy now.But why?“Where?” I questioned, becoming curious; but he only folded his lips.“It's a surprise,&rdq
Tamara POVI kept rolling on the bed, from one edge to the other. Memories with Rodney in the parkwouldn't stop hunting my sleep. He's absolutely the best thing that has ever happened to me.I placed my both hands on my cheeks as soon as I remembered that moment, he almost placed his lips on mine.Why did he resist himself?He should have done it; I've been dreaming my whole life how my first kiss would look like.“I really can't wait,” I muttered ecstatically as I wriggle beneath my duvet.I shut my eyes as I tried to get some sleep; still the same.Gosh!I should probably go get some water.Rodney POVI'm really going crazy; I'm losing my mind now. It keeps flashing through my mind; that moment she had her hands rested on my chest at the park. I shove a hand into my hair, she should stop invading my head already.I crawled out of the bed and stood on my feet, I amble towards the mirror and stared at my
Tamara POVI slowly took my seat, waiting patiently for the maid to bring the food. So bad, I was not allowed to do anything.My eyes drifted to the stairs and saw him climbing down the last stair, I felt goosebumps rising in my whole system as I trembled on my seat.Oh, goodness!I thought he was not home.I heard him dragged the chair backward, but I couldn't even glance up, so I just stared down at my feet.“Good morning Beaubelle(Beautiful)” He greeted, and I could feel my cheeks heating up.“Good morning” I replied slowly with my eyes fixed on my feet. “I could tell your night was spectacular from a look at your cheeks,” He teases, and I just smiled, diffidently.I finally looked up to meet his intense gaze on me and last night memory came burning in my head as we stared at each other.Oh Lord,Who created this man?The maid brought in the flatware and placed it carefully on the table,
Tamara POV“Marian, I will be fine,” I assured her for the tenth time.After my encountered with Rodney's mom the other day, I couldn't go to the grocery store again, I had to go back inside.And right now, I really wanted to go to the grocery store, but Marian wouldn't allow me to. “I will be done with the dishes soon; we should go together” She says indifferently and turned to the faucet immediately. I frowned. Why is she like this, huh? “I really can handle it Marian, don't worry” I pout while moving closer to her. She tilted her head to my direction and I quickly flashed her a sweet smile.She heaved a heavy sigh before handing the list to me; together with some cash.“Please don't stay long, ma'am,” She pleaded with a concerned look. I nodded curtly and scurried out the kitchen.I covered my eyes with my hand to prevent the sun from penetrating into my eyes.For goodness’s sake!Were
Tamara POVMy heart aches painfully while I managed tomumble “Father” He switched on the lights and I could feel my heart jumped out of my chest at his disgusting sight. A smirk ran all over his face as he ambled to where I was standing, shivering with fear. Oh, Lord.!He strode towards me, while I kept moving backward with my both hands on my chest.“Come to daddy” He sneers as he opened his arms, widely.Suddenly, I hit my back against the wooden wall, and that was when I realized I couldn't move again. I was trapped.My heart beat faster than usual as he stood in front of me. Oh, goodness! He leaned closer, I felt my heart beat stopped as his eyes bored into my body.“I missed you, dear daughter,” He whispered, while trailing his forefinger on my cheek.With his rough breath fanning against my face, he took his hand behind my neck and grabbed it, I whimpered. “You think you can escape, huh?&rdquo
Rodney POVI rushed to my room, slamming the door very hard behind me.F*ck! “She was threatened all along?” I muttered as I slumped on a couch.But who the f*ck would have threatened her to leave me? I buried my face in my palms as water stung my eyes. Her pleas and tears reeled through my mind; I ran a hand through my hair as more tears came streaming down my cheeks.I'm sorry mom;I really so sorry.“Are you okay?” Dad asked, alarmed while I approached him on his seat.He rose to his feet, watching my face, perturbed. “What's wrong?” He asked tenderly, I sniffed back a tear as I hugged him tightly.“Rodney” He called as he patted my back and the tears were now rushing down, profusely.“You were right, Dad” I said while I disengaged from the short embrace, he couldn't hide his confusion look as he stared at my face.“You were right about Mum; you said she wouldn't
Jason POV“So, is that the reason you asked my father to kidnap me?” She yelled to my face fiercely, causing confusion to grow the more on my face as I stared down at her.She looked away from my face and crossed her arms under her chest.“What do you mean?” I asked in disbelief, but she only huffed. “Roman Wesley is my father” She replied through gritted teeth, and my eyes widened on their own. “How is that even possible?” I asked her dimly, after I found my voice. “I mean, Roman has been working for me for some time now, and he had never mentioned he has any daughter to me” I explained, and I watch as her face softened a bit.“He has been working for you?” She asked incredulously, pointing a finger at me; I gave a short nod in response. “What type of work?” She further asked, I breathe out softly. “You don't need to know about it,” I replied calmly.“But
