Thirty one: Doomed?
Scott
The document in front of me was as stupid as frustrating. All its content seemed like a framed work. Who in the world could have typed something this gibberish?
"Gregory!" I barked. Throwing my head back, tapping my feet against the hard marble floor, drumming my fingers against the glass table in front of me, I glared, impatiently waiting for the idiot to come into my study room.
"Sir." One of my guys, Gary, hurried in, bowed his head. "Gregory isn't around. He said he had to go on an errand you had sent him to do."
I twitched one of my eyebrows, being furious. "Errand? Which errand are you speaking of?
"I don't know about that, sir. That's what he told me before he left," he replied.
"You all are irresponsible!" I yelled, and slapped my palm against the table. "Just leave here, moron. You work for me, but you don't e

I was furious. Of all the things I hated, betrayal was what I hated most. Yes, I had betrayed some people in the past, but that was only for a game. Whoever I had betrayed in the past, wasn't so relevant in my life. But that wasn't the same case here.I had been taking care of Greg since he was eighteen. Since the last twelve years, he had been with me. I ensured he studied at a good university, I employed him at my office, he was my highest paid worker. So what in the world could have made him do this?"You idiot!" I hurried to him. Overwhelmed with anger, I grabbed the collar of his shirt, hit him hard across the face. "You wanna get me doomed? After all I've done for you?"Non-stop, I keep hitting him. He deserved to be dealt with. I didn't care to know who he had been talking with on the phone, or the reason he was doing this. All I just wanted to do was to hit him to death. He was the last person I expected to
Chasing Her Thirty three: Truth
This place was as silent as a graveyard. The only things that could be heard were the sound of crickets, owls and bats. The air was a mixture of oxygen, the stench of cigarettes and alcohol. Coming to a place like this was very, very risky. But, I was pretty sure if I hadn't come here, dad would kill Gregory.I parked my car in front of one of the old houses, hopped out. A bit fearful, I headed to my destination. I knew this was the only place dad would send his men to beat up anyone, so that was the reason I had decided to come here.The alcohol content in the air seemed to be surpassing the oxygen. My lungs felt choked, begging me to leave here as soon as possible. Sometimes, I would wonder why the government didn't restrict people from coming here. Anyone could easily get murdered in such a place.I ignored the offensive odour. Reaching the house I was heading to, just a few feets away, I heard groan

Renee______In thirty minutes, Roy would come here to pick me up. And like damn, I couldn't wait for him to get here. Every woman in love would understand what it meant to always want to have their man beside them. It was like taking a tour in the clouds.I kept my jaw in my palm as I propped my elbow on the counter. A small, warm smile crawled to my lips, and I shut my eyes, inhaled hard, enjoying the serenity around me.Yes, I was exhausted, but I didn't want it to be obvious. Roy had said I shouldn't work any longer, but of course, that wasn't going to be possible. Well, I kind of moved into his house. He had said I didn't have to worry about feeding or any other costs, but as a stubborn person I was, I wasn't willing to listen to him yet.For some reason, mom wasn't so comfortable with me having to stay at his place. I didn't know why, b
Chasing Her Thirty five: Deal
Renee______I squeezed my face, so confused. Roy was kind of crazy sometimes. How could he have ordered this much food? Just because I was pregnant, didn't mean I was now some kind of foodie. I was definitely still going to eat the same way I always ate.I scratched my head like I was confused. Oh, yeah, I was confused. Could he have ordered this for a guest? Was he expecting someone? And where the heck was he?I yawned. Last night, for some reason, I was unable to have enough sleep. As far as I knew, pregnant women always slept a lot, but that was completely different for me. I hardly slept very well. I guessed it was because I was kind of used to staying up late at night"Hey, princess?" I yelped when I heard his voice.With a little frown, I snapped my neck around. "Come on. You don't want me to have a heart att
Chasing Her Thirty six: How much more?
Renee______I scrunched my nose, choking on my own fart. I heard Roy mumble from behind me, but I ignored him. It wasn't my fault. My tummy kind of hurt, so this fart was because of his child. Could he blame me?"Renee," he bed-muffled. "Come on. You could have excused yourself."I bit my lower lip, my eyes jerking open. Shit, this was so embarrassing. Farting in front of him? The crumpling sound behind me denoted he was crawling towards me. Embarrassed, I shut my eyes back. At least, he would think I farted from my sleep."Come here, you naughty thing." He pulled me from behind, dug his lips into the skin of my neck.I remained silent, still pretending to be asleep. But, when he locked the inch between us, I yelped."Go away." I attempted to push him off me, but that didn't work. He only pulle

Tears crinkled in my eyes. I didn't like this at all. Everyone had begun clapping when I had stretched my hand to collect the ring, but now, they were muttering several unnecessary words."Mom." Roy stood straight, hurried to the annoying person he called his mom. "Wh-What are you doing here? What's up?"She turned to him, those evil eyes shooting him some glare. "You're an idiot. Have you taken it this far?"He sighed. "Mom, I get you. This is no longer a game. It's for real now. We've sorted things out between us already.""Sorted what?" She scoffed. Moving her arms to her chest, she inhaled loud. "My boy, I still don't get why you'll choose her over Kath. I mean, Kath's complete. She's just the woman I want for you. She's successful, decent, respectful. She has it all. What the heck do you see in this one?"I swallowed. No matter how I tried to make her like me, the hatr

"Kath, I can explain." She turned around the couch, hurried to me, blinking like a moron."H-How can you…" I still couldn't believe what I had heard. Or, was she kind of playing a prank on me? "How can you do this?! You're nuts?!" My voice covered the entire room.She quivered, only moving unstably. "S-See, it's not what you think. I was only—""Only what?!" I hit my hand hard across her face. She tripped backwards, held her cheek, gasped. "What's your problem? Why would you want to take Roy as well? Are you that much of a harlot?"After a while of being silent, she turned back to me, gave me a hard frown. Obviously, she wasn't sorry. The frown on her filthy eyebrows was enough proof."First, you call me a harlot? And now, you hit me? Bitch, who gives you that right?" She uttered. Her voice always held that creepy dramatic tone, but right now, the e
Chasing Her Thirty nine: Perplexed
The moment he moved his hand to my shirt, I gasped, but was too weak to release myself from his grip. He checked whether or not I was wearing the necklace, and when he got a confirmation I wasn't with it, he threw me from his strong hold.I fell to the floor, sat on it, and felt too weak to even breath. Before he had come here, I was so tired. Now that he was moving my body like I was a paper, I felt even more tired."Search the entire room," he ordered his men. Without wasting time, they began scattering the room, looking for something that wasn't even here.He walked past me, heading somewhere. What was I to do now? How would I make him believe it wasn't with me? I didn't want him to know it was with mom, because there was no doubt that he would hurt her if he had to know.I sighed weakly. Where was Roy? He was the only person who knew how to handle his father, so why the he
