If someone had told me my family are my worst enemies, I will never have believed until now.
They all sat down in the plane, well dressed and looking excited.My stepmom came to me and embrace me and I looked her in the eyes and ask.“ You knew about all of this from the beginning right? I asked.“ I did it for you honey, I did it for you because I know what you deserve” she says caressing my cheek”.“ You do not know what I want ? You did what you wanted because of what you were going to gain, you couldn’t even pity my kids and all.......” I was going to continue talking that I was dragged to the priest and Mike came to whisper into my ear.“ Your ex is still in my custody and I have your kids and ex mother in law in my captives, if you love them, do as I say” he said and held my hand.I pull away my hand from his hand and tears dripped down my face.I stood and I was asked to say my vow, I had no vows to read to him because any vow I am supposed to read belongs to my husband only.He didn’t let me waste more time, instead he read his stupid vows out and I wasn’t even listening anyways.We exchange ring and he was expecting a kiss from me, I didn’t kiss him instead he forced his kisses on me.My stepmom and my relatives clapped their hands.After the wedding, I see Mike distribute envelopes to them all which I know the envelopes contains money.After the wedding, I told him, I want to see my husband and kids.He told me that when the phone lands that he would make the call that my husband should be freed.The plane landed and we were led into the ship,I thought I could escape but his men were al around , it was hard escaping.I was led into the ship, I cried all through the wedding and started calculating with my head in the best way to escape then I thought of playing along.When he invited me to the dance floor , I joined him and danced and slowly I began to walk away, I walk outside the ship and I realized it has travelled far and it was in the middle of the ocean, I began to think of jumping into the water but to be honest, it’s not easy to make up ones mind to commit suicide.I still want to see my husband and kids again.Mike came to me on the ship and laughs hard.“ Where you thinking you can escape? He asked and I turn back to him.“ Why are you doing this to me? Why do you think this is the best way to treat me? I asked.“ Because I love you” he held my hand and look into my eyes and I pull away my hand from his hand.“ Get your filthy hands off me” I said.“ I have every right to you now because you are my wife” I said.“Let go of my husband and kids” I said .“ I already ordered my men to release him and compensate him with the sum of $20,000,000, you can see I am not a bad man” he says.“ you are nothing but a monster ! I yelled at him and walk back into the hall, I walk into the toilet and lock myself up and weep.RICHARD.I was surprised that I was treated and I was surprised when they gave me my phone, they wrap me up and when they got close to my estate , they untie both my legs and hand that was tied and threw me to the floor and they drove off in a rush.I struggled to crawl to the security gate, the securities came to me and they make a call to my house and also call the cops.I was taken to the hospital.My parents arrived with my siblings and twins asking me what happened.My first question is if my wife has been found and my parents said no then my mom look into my face and said when I get better she will show me the information she has concerning my wife.I became curious to know what the information was about when a message came on my phone.My mom quickly picked it and she open her eyes wide in surprise.“$20,000,000 “ my mom says out.“ What?! I asked and my siblings and my parents checked it all over and over again and a message enters into the phone again and I collected the phone from my mom.I read through the message and it was a message from my wife saying that is a compensation for all the things I have done for her and all the years I have loved her.She said she cannot continue to live with me in such condition moreover she never liked me, she said she finally find who she loves and who will take her all around the world, live a better life she has never lived with me and that she knows she will never live with me.Tears dripped down my face and I stopped reading the message.My mom picked the phone and went through the message, she came to embrace me.“ I used to think she loved me, we were good and all of a sudden she left home claiming she doesn’t love me” I said.“ Son, we cannot say for certain that she did this and if she does you need to prove yourself that you only fell down and that you will rise again” she said.“ Mom, I loved her and gave her everything, why did she do this to me? I asked.“Honey, I know you loved her so much but this is her decision, I think you should just focus on yourself and your kids.Apparently, the guy was nomadic and had been on the run for a while. I couldn't help but wonder why he kept hiding and what had made him choose this luxurious hotel as his hideout.Several hours passed, and it appeared that the man didn't want to show himself. The air was thick with the scent of cigar smoke. I sat at the table with James, feeling anxious and uneasy. I couldn't help but feel like something was off about the situation.Suddenly, the door creaked open, and a strong-looking muscular guy entered the room. His serious expression and imposing figure sent shivers down my spine. He scanned the room before his eyes landed on us."My boss will see you now," he said in a gruff voice.I breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, we were getting somewhere. I signaled to James that I would wait for him in the parking lot and stood up from the table, eager to get out and breathe some fresh air. However, as I exited the meeting room, my heart sank, and beads of sweat started to form around m
I'm good, Dad," I said, not wanting to talk about myself. “Well, thanks for your time.”I stood up to leave. Visits with my father had always been all business anyways. The man believed in nothing more than himself. I hurried down to the garage to find Richard.I watched Richard from afar. He looked more manly in the garage environment. He was fascinated by something in the car engine area, so I moved closer.As soon as Richard spotted me, he sighed.Laura," he said quietly, "go home."The words almost sounded like a warning, but I ignored him. I went even closer and looked around. It was quite dark in there for the middle of the morning. I got even closer.Richard closed the gap between us, his face dangerously set."Turn around," he ordered as he grabbed my hips and rested me face-first against the side of a car. His voice was suddenly deeper, and I rubbed my thighs together.He slipped a hand under my jacket."Laura, you really should go home now," Richard said as his hand kept get
The mansion had an eerie feel to it—as if there were secrets lurking around every corner. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were dead bodies hidden in the walls. It was unsettling, but I pushed those thoughts aside and continued on my way.As I reached the foyer, I saw James standing there, his arms crossed in front of his chest. He had a stern expression on his face. I had no desire at that moment to deal with the consequences of the previous night, but I continued towards him as he acknowledged me with a nod."Come to the back," his tone was firm, not that there had ever been a day that he was lenient. He took his difficult position very seriously.I followed him to the other end of the house where he opened a heavy metal door that led to a dark room. I could barely see what was inside, but I knew it had to be something important.He pulled out a large, heavy carton and placed it on a nearby table."You're delivering this," he said, pointing to the package. "It needs to be there at e
Yeah," I nodded as Richard pulled the car back onto the road."Are you married?" I blurted out, the words escaping my lips before I could even think twice. The car was quiet, aside from the sound of the engine humming. Anthony looked at me in shock, his eyes darting back and forth between me and the road ahead. For a moment, I thought that maybe I had caught him red-handed in some sort of scandalous affair, but then he spoke."No…" he said, his voice low and guarded, “but I was almost married."The way he said it made my heart ache for him. There was so much pain in his voice, so much hurt that he was clearly trying to hide. I could feel the tension in the car building like a rubber band stretched too tightly."She left," he added, his jaw clenching. I could see how much the memory hurt him, how much he must have been struggling to deal with the aftermath. I wondered what type of woman could have left someone like him. He seemed like the kind of person who would be an amazing partner,
I approached the bouncer, and he greeted me with a smile."Hi, Laura," he said, recognizing me from previous encounters. "It's been a long time," he smiled."I know, right?" I said and he parted the way for me to enter. I couldn't help but feel a sense of belonging. This was my favorite spot to unwind after a long day, and I always felt at home there.I took a deep breath and stepped inside, feeling the energy of the crowd wash over me. The club was bustling with people of all ages dressed in various styles. Some were dressed to impress, while others were dressed in more casual attire. The lighting was low, casting a sultry atmosphere over the scene.I made my way to the bar, scanning the crowd for familiar faces. As I ordered my drink, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around to see my best friend, Shirley, smiling broadly. She hugged me, almost squeezing the life out of me."You made it!" she said while spinning me around, grinning from ear to ear. We stopped for a moment to look
I dialed Mrs. Hamsburg number to ask if she could take in my daughter a little earlier today. It took her a few minutes to get back to me but the sweet soul agreed.Oh, Mrs. Hamsburg What would I do without you?"Go get your bags together while I talk to your teacher," I told Sonia, watching her hurriedly return to class.I approached her teacher and let her know the plan. She agreed and said I could take her out early.I watched my daughter wave at her friends and come to me.On the way, my daughter made us visit the cake shop, and we also had to pick up food. As we drove, my daughter chatted away. Then, I handed her to Mrs. Hamsburg , and she waved me off.A short hour later I was pulling up to the entrance of Laura’s gated community. I signaled to the security guard, and he nodded and let me enter. I pulled over in front of Laura's house and attempted to open the gate, but this time it was locked. Of course, it would be.I decided to buzz the intercom, hoping that Laura would hear i
