"Fuck!!" David yelled, hitting the steering wheel repeatedly. "It's Gabrielle." Olivia beamed, nudging Alexa. "You had better shut up your filthy mouth or I'll blow your brains out." David threatened, pulling out a gun. The ladies kept mute, in fear of what David might do to them. He parked by the side of the road, waiting patiently for the black SUV behind him to catch up. "One of you must have contacted Gabrielle. No one knows you both have gone missing." He snapped, cocking his gun. The black SUV stopped, but no one got out. The one in front of the van turned off its headlight, and everywhere was still and quiet. "Bunch of fools. They think they can mess with my mind." David chuckled, unbuckling his seatbelt. Just like they feared, he opened the door and stepped out. He walked to the road with a devilish grin on his face. "Well? Show's over boys, come show me what you've got." He threatened, holding his gun up for all to see. "Your ex is crazy. If he thinks that Gabrielle
" Mr handsome isn't coming to get you now, is he?" David chuckled, lighting a cigarette. "You don't know Gabrielle. Once he comes here, you're done for." Alexa snapped. "Oh really? And where is he now? On another continent, and probably doesn't know you're missing." David laughed, puffing slowly. Alexa sighed. Maybe David was right. Gabrielle doesn't know that they've been kidnapped, and even if he knew, h how would he find them? They were faraway, and Gabrielle may not catch up with them soon. David was talking to a mysterious person on the phone, and hung up when a car stopped in front of the warehouse. He gave them one final stern look before going outside to meet the stranger. "Does Gabrielle even know where we are?" Olivia asked in a weary voice. Alexa didn't know the answer to give. David had taken their phones, so right now they were hopeless. "Everything's going to be fine." She finally said. "Are you trying to motivate me right now?" Olivia gave her an unsettling lo
"Ughhhhh Olivia another one? You've gotten three already!" Alexa said tiredly. They've been at the store for hours because Olivia wanted plenty shoes. "I'm sorry, let me just try this one out." Olivia apologized, putting her tiny feet into a heel. Alexa sat on the soft cushion available in the store, waiting for Olivia to finish. After Olivia was done, they left the store. After phoning the driver for more than an hour, they decided to take a cab since he was not taking any calls. They flagged down the first cab, and entered without thinking twice. The driver didn't look back, and in a split second, a masked man entered the back seat, pointing a gun at the both of them. "Hey hun." He said, while removing the mask from his face. David! "What is this? What do you want?" Alexa tried to summon courage. "It's nice to see you too, since you've lost your manners." He spat, and motioned to the driver to get going. "What do you want with us?" Olivia asked through clenched teeth. "We'
"Oh!! I didn't know you were done with your meeting sir." Mrs Addams gasped, throwing her hand over her mouth."I told you not to leave until I was done." Gabrielle glared at her.Alexa chuckled. Didn't his PA said she's not allowed to attend any of his meetings? Even Antonio attends some of Gabrielle's meetings, or did she just come here to ridicule her?"I'm sorry sir." She bowed her head apologetically. "I thought I should give you space." "Very well then. Cancel all my appointments today, and book a flight going to South Africa tomorrow. We're meeting with foreign investors there." Gabrielle ordered, and walked into the office.Alexa waited for him to address what Mrs Addams said to her earlier, but he never did. Maybe he didn't hear it."I will do that immediately sir." Mrs Addams said, and hurried out of the office."Missed me?" He said with a smile at the corner of his lips."You know I did." She smiled, wrapping her arms around his neck. "What took you so long?""I'm sorry b
After Gabrielle left her all alone in the office, she decided to get a glass of water from the dispenser. Gabrielle's office was big, and furnished to taste. Everything about the office screamed money and elegance, from the huge mahogany desk to the wide glass window overlooking the city. She strolled to the window, while sipping her water. The city looked busy and beautiful. Everyone was going about their work, minding their businesses. She glanced at her watch. She was supposed to go shopping with Olivia later in the day. 'There's still time.' She whispered to herself and kept peering through the window. The sun was very hot today, and she felt bad for the people that had to endure the scorching sun just to provide for their families. She could also remember her mom toiling day and night, looking after old people just to come home with scraps. But she's fortunate now, something she thought was only possible in movies. Across the street was a begger in a grey sweater and an
"I missed you my love." Gabrielle whispered, planting kisses all over her face.They say reconciliation sex is usually the best, well they didn't lie."I missed you too Gabrielle and I'm sorry for judging you like that. I was just overwhelmed by my emotions.""That's okay." Gabrielle squinted his eyes and rolled over to the other side of the bed."You know, everything I do, and I'm doing is because of you. Sometimes I hear my men whisper that I've become too soft. But I don't care, as Iong as You're happy, nothing else matters." He added."You're still the same Gabrielle I came to know, only sweeter." Alexa chuckled.Gabrielle smiled."I'll do that and more for you my love." He smirked.*************"Sir, here are the files you promised to go through today." Mrs Addams said, placing the files cautiously in front of Gabrielle.He was scrolling through his phone, and only raised his head when she called for his attention again."You've signed them isn't it?" He asked, going through the
