Blaire paced to and fro in the waiting room her hands visibly shook as she took in heavy breaths while her thoughts were everywhere.
Aramide's father was sitting on a chair, His head was rested on the wall and he seemed deep in thought. Blaire let a tear slip as she mumbled something underneath her breath, Memories ran through her mind.
"You've become quite popular and feared here, No one wants to get cross with the boss lady,” Blaire said with a smile that didn't reach her eyes
"That's exactly what we want, whosoever wants to kill me, must be someone who knows me well, the person must be going crazy wanting to know where I am and how Aramide managed to disappear from the surface of the earth," Aramide said with a smirk
"Oh Nana, I can't wait to return to London, I can't wait to board that flight today, it was about time
"You fools! You are useless! You had one job! Just one job! And you failed at that too!" Dared roared as his bench men shrunk in his sight. To say the man was furious would be an understatement, their leads hadn't got them anywhere, apparently, the kidnapper had changed locations and they were back to square one, they had looked everywhere in London, but they had found nothing. Dared frowned as he downed a shot of vodka, He ran his hands through his hair as he sat down in one of the many bars in London. His thoughts were all over the place. He was sure of one thing though, the moment he found the person that dared to lay a finger on his woman he would tear them into tiny little pieces. "Oh, Clarissa" Dared spoke. "You never cease to amaze me" he continued "You and I both know full well that you are mine" "I don't know if you are bold or just plain stupid, but I don't have time to waste on you," Aramide replied sharpl
Jared groaned as he paced back and forth. It had been two hours, two long hours since Cole had managed to escape from right underneath their noses! Jared was sure Aramide had helped him escape. What he didn't understand was why the girl hadn't left with him? Why had she stayed? What exactly was keeping Aramide tied to this place that she had willing told freedom goodbye? The man sharpened his small knife as a frown laced his features, he couldn't care less what she thought anymore, he was going to get rid of his pestering niece today, Soon the cops would arrive. Jared was sure that cole had been singing to them about how Aramide was alive. Every moment was crucial. Each moment was like a drop of water, it could never be gotten back after it was lost, and that was just reality. "Aramide" he gritted out as he stepped into the room, He didn't m
A tear slipped down Blaire's eyes as she cuddled Aramide's picture to her chest, She was currently resting on the wall before she slid down, silently weeping. It had been one week, one whole week, one whole week since Aramide was declared dead, since those test results came in. Since everything went down the drain, They couldn't even give her a proper burial. Blaire sobbed. Her eyes filled with tears that dropped on Aramide's photo, she remembered the photo clearly. "You are right, I don't mean anything to you, I am just your assistant," Blaire said as she proceeded to leave the room "Mother" That word was enough to make Blaire freeze "How can someone I see as my mother, ever say she means nothing to me?" Aramide asked as their eyes locked and Blaire wasted time pulling her into a hug. In the photo Blaire and Aram
The cries of spoons and plates as they were either grazed or stabbed at each other was the only sound present at the Dante Dining table. Each person refused to make eye contact with the other, Sylvia had gotten back from the hospital, and to say the news of Clarissa's death hit her like a bomb would be an understatement, but that wasn't the worst part. The revelation that Bola had taken upon herself to reveal made their worlds shake. As if it wasn't enough, Cole had shown up the next day, with no clear explanation of where he had been or what had happened. The tension could be cut with a knife, Mercedes eyes glanced over the chair that Daniel should be in, Her eyes watered, After her brother's overdose, he was sent to Rehab once again, but this time it was way worse as he had also been informed of the drama surrounding Aramide, He was furious and heartbroken, That girl, that Clarissa or Aramide or whatever her name truly was, She h
Aramide slowly woke up. She realized two things the moment she gained consciousness. One, the sun had already set! She had slept in, There was so much to be done today and she had slept in? She didn't have too much time to ponder about that though as the second realization hit her, she wasn't alone, Her eyes widened as she quickly tried to move away but before her mind could go down the horrific possibilities, Dared gruff morning voice was heard "Are you okay?" He whispered as their eyes, Aramide sighed in relief as she relaxed, "It’s you" She voiced her thoughts. "Just me?!" He chuckled as he stood up, He was currently standing on the bed, Aramide chuckled fondly as the billionaire made a fool of himself even proceeding to do a little dance after he had feigned offense at her initial comment. After the whole drama, they had eventually gone down for breakfast. Turns out Dared had a penthouse in London,
“Are you sure about this?” Dared asked for the millionth time as he watched Aramide finish dressing up. The girl sighed and turned around, She had been facing the mirror for a while and she could see the worried look Dared was continuously shooting in her direction. She frowned as she picked up her bag and spoke “I can't hide forever remember?” She sighed as picked up her things are headed out the door, Dared was hot on her heels, a million and one reasons running through his mind as to why he should not allow her to leave the most prominent meaning that he would lose her, but the reality was, He had already lost her. “Aramide you—” Dared could barely finish his words before Aramide cut him off with a look, a look that clearly said she wasn't going to discuss it further, it was one of her looks that he had to admit made her look even more beautiful but still displeased him. He sighed as his shoulders slu
Aramide chuckled as she and Cole raced about the beach, He would occasionally pour water at her and she would do the same. Her chuckles filled the air, The sound of feet hitting the soil and the sound of happiness echoing through her, Cole couldn't bring himself to tell her the truth — Yesterday they had bonded as one, They had reunited and every moment was priceless. He had even woken up to breakfast in bed. Even he was now afraid for Aramide, Cole wasn't sure Aramide would be able to take the blow that was about to come her way. “Come on” Aramide yelled out to Cole. She had a big smile on her face as she threw the water about, Splashing it all over, She seemed unfazed at the fact that she was getting deeper and deeper into the water. Aramide closed her eyes as she took in the serenity of the place. She finally had everything she wanted. Aramide felt like she was finally at peace like she finally ha
The song had already began. For every bride, their wedding day was the happiest day of their lives,long white veils and a long beautiful dress, The moment of control that you were deciding exactly how and whom you wanted to spend the rest of your life with. at least that was what the fairy tales said right? but reality was always far from fantasy. Aramide's off shoulder wedding gown was designed with diamond stones spread across the upper side of the gown, She wore her shoes, and put on her veil. You know when one's circumstances test them in such a way that they are lost between being grateful for the chances they have and feeling unfortunate for the chances they lost, Aramide was at this spot. This painful point of in between, she didn't know whether to cry or tell or laugh, She felt frozen, traumatized, in shock. She hadn't uttered word since the incident. She sighed and accepted her fate
