Chapter 5

The air in the car was cooling with the undeniably expensive scent of a crisp, woody cologne. The chairs were fluffy and comfortable, and as Suzanne sat, she couldn't help but got too comfortable even though she knew her presence there was all a fake. Soft music began to play from the stereo of the car. An old blues that appeared to be Suzanne's favourite.

She concealed a smile, closing her eyes.

"You look like you like the music," Michael muttered, giving her a sideways glance.

Suzanne quickly sat up, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. "I'm sorry you had to come all the way there to get me..."

"We're playing a game, Suzanne. I thought I should make it too real to be doubted. I'm taking you to my company. I want to introduce you." Michael replied flatly, his eyes on the road. He swirled the car around to the next bending corner, glancing at the rare view mirror.

"Introduce me...to who?" Suzanne stammered.

"The strategy team. I think you will be overseeing the new project they are working on."

Suzanne blinked nervously, swallowing hard. Yes, she had the brains to work, but it had been such a long time she worked with people or for someone. The last time had been at a small research organisation, just before she married Davey.

"What? Aren't you up for it?" Michael questioned when she sensed Suzanne's hesitation.

"I can, after all, it's part of the deal. For the duration of our contract, I will do all I can to help S&C more successful that it already is." Suzanne replied.

Michael said nothing as he finally pulled the car behind some heavy large gates. Suzanne looked around, and marvelled at the vast spacious luxury dripping company her eye met. She hadn't been to S&C Investment company, but she'd heard how ravishing the place was. She had thought they were only bluffing, but Suzanne could see that wasn't the case.

After packing in the garage, Michael turned to look at her. "You need to get in your character, Ellie. I'm going to flirt with you during the meetings, I will be mildly distracted by you, and glance your way from time to time. I hope you don't find it surprising, that's why I'm letting you know."

Suzanne smiled, and nodded. "Thank you, Michael. Thank you for agreeing to this."

"Well, it's just two months, right?" Michael smirked slightly and stepped out of the car. Suzanne did the same. As soon as she did, she missed a step, and staggered against the car. Before she could hit the ground, some powerful gleaming arms grabbed her, steadying her on her feet.

"You should be careful," Michael's deep voice sounded near her ear, his arms wrapped her protectively.

With lips slightly patted, Suzanne turned to look at him, totally out of breath. They stood that way for a while until Ellie snapped out of her trance.

She moved away from Michael, adjusting her dress. "Thank you."

Michael took a quick look at her, letting a small appreciative smile touch one corner of his lips. He locked his car, turned to see the other cars that had been following him packing up in the next garage.

Ryan, his closest guard and driver hurried towards him, and whispered something in his ear.

"Really?" Michael scoffed.

Ryan nodded, and glanced briefly at Suzanne. She watched their movements, but failed to detect what was happening.

"Let's go in, Suzanne." Michael ordered. He placed one arm around Ellie's slim waist, guarding her to the entrance.

"No!" Suzanne snapped at him, moving away. "I can walk on my own. Thank you." She hissed out the words, walking briskly away.

Michael stared after her, and chuckled softly. They got into the building, and took the elevator.

**************

"I can't believe this," Davey thundered against his steering wheel while seething in anger in his car. He was packed across the street from S&C, and since the gates were open, he had witnessed everything that had happened between his wife and his business rival.

Davey had no idea why he was in fury. He had no idea why his insides were boiling and about to explore into tiny bits. Michael's arms around Suzanne, guarding her from falling –the intense looks they had exchanged, and the talks they had which he didn't get to hear all replayed in front of him.

He grabbed his steering wheel with an unusual force, and breathing heavily, he ignited his car engine.

He drove back all the way home, met Clarrisa making breakfast in the kitchen. He stood at the entrance, glaring at her.

"You're back. Why did you rush off like that? Are you okay?" Clarrisa asked, turning to look at Davey, but got no response.

Instead, Davey walked briskly into the kitchen, eyes blazing with a blinding rage. He grabbed Clarrisa roughly by the waist, pinned her against the kitchen counter, and started to fumble with her shirt.

"What... what are you doing?" Clarrisa whispered, already fired up by Davey's approach. She gasped sharply when she felt his hands inside her shirt, grabbing her naked boobs with his massive palms. Soon, her shirt came off, pooling on the floor.

"Davey..." Clarrisa whispered, but Davey gave her no time to explain. He fused his lips on hers, claiming them in a frenzied kiss. The sauce on the cooker began to burn, but Davey was far from letting Clarrisa go.

"The food is burning..." She tried to complain, but got choked as Davey wrapped his palm around her neck–just hard enough to pleasure her.

"I want to fuck you right now," he whispered hoarsely in her ear, and bending down, he caught one of her taunt nipples into his mouth, sucking ferociously at it.

Clarrisa threw her head backwards as a soft pleasurable sigh escaped her lips. Under her shorts, she dripped uncontrollably.

With his dipstick hard against the placket of his pants, Davey pulled down his zipper, letting his hardness slip out. With one hand, he pulled down Clarissa's mini short, turned her away so she could face the wall before bending her over the counter.

"Fuck, you're so wet," he grunted with satisfaction, and guarding himself into place between the woman's long legs, he threw in a deep thrust into his dripping hole.

"Davey, the food..." Clarrisa cried out, cursed under her breath. When it came to sex, she knew Davey was one to make her completely feel like a woman. She held on to the kitchen counter as Davey continued his penetration, their grunts and pleasuring sounds feeling the hot atmosphere in the kitchen.

Soon, Davey's grip around Clarissa's hips hardened, his voice became more thick, and what followed next was his hot cream shooting into Clarissa, and at the same time, dripping relentlessly on the floor.

"Fuck," he grunted into her ear before stepping away, "the food is burnt," he muttered, turning to look at the almost black sauce on the cooker. He reached forward, turned off the fire.

"You were amazing," Clarissa smiled at Davey, and licked her lips. She watched as he pulled back his pants, and at the back of her mind, she wondered what Davey Hawthorne would do if he ever had to find out that the woman right there in the kitchen with him was already married with her baby boy, growing up somewhere outside the country.

She was back into his life for a mission, and nothing was going to stop her. Not even his wife, Suzanne.

  • He Left Her Broken, She Returned a Weapon   Chapter 119

    Chapter 119Jayson drove slowly along the narrow road, his hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles had turned white. He had been silent for most of the journey, speaking only when necessary to direct his father, Michael, Davey, and Suzzane. Every few seconds, he glanced through the windshield, searching the roadside for anything familiar.The place looked different in the fading evening light. During the day, the trees lining the road would have appeared ordinary, even peaceful. Now, their long shadows stretched across the pavement, and the thick bushes on either side seemed to conceal endless possibilities. The air was unusually still, except for the occasional rustle of leaves stirred by the wind.“This is it,” Jayson finally said, his voice tense.Michael leaned forward from the passenger seat. “Are you certain?”Jayson nodded slowly. “Yes. This is the exact spot. I saw Daisy and her friends walking in that direction.” He pointed toward a narrow path disappea

    Chapter 118The moment Michael ended the call with Suzanne, the living room fell into a heavy, suffocating silence.For several seconds, neither father nor son spoke.Jayson, on the other hand, could not remain still.He paced across the living room with frantic, uneven steps, moving from one end of the room to the other and then turning back again. His hands repeatedly clenched and unclenched at his sides. Every few seconds, he dragged his fingers through his hair, pulling at it in frustration, before continuing his restless march.Daisy was missing.The thought circled through his mind like a terrible echo.Missing.The word was too frightening to accept, too dreadful to attach to someone he loved. Daisy was impulsive, stubborn, and occasionally impossible to deal with, but she had always been there. He knew where she was, who she was with, and how to reach her. Even when she stormed out in anger, he had always been able to find her.This was different.There had been no message fro

  • He Left Her Broken, She Returned a Weapon   Chapter 117

    Chapter 117The struggle back into consciousness was not a gentle drift; it was a violent collision with reality. Daisy’s eyelids fluttered, heavy and coated in a draining weight, like leaden curtains she couldn’t quite pull back. When she finally forced them open, she was met with an abyss of absolute, suffocating darkness.A sharp, metallic tang burned the back of her throat—the lingering residue of the sedative that had turned her world into a void. Every muscle in her body screamed in protest, locked in a state of sluggish paralysis. She tried to shift, to recoil, but her wrists bit into the coarse texture of rope, locked firmly behind the small of her back. The sudden realization of her vulnerability struck her like a physical blow. Her heart, which had been beating in a lethargic rhythm, suddenly spiked into a frantic, erratic thrum against her ribs.Panic, cold and sharp, flooded her veins. She tried to inhale, but her breath hitched, catching in a throat raw from the chemica

  • He Left Her Broken, She Returned a Weapon   Chapter 116

    Chapter 116The walkway leading to the academic block was crowded, the air thick with the humidity of the afternoon and the ceaseless chatter of students. Sasha trailed a half-step behind Daisy, her hands nervously gripping the strap of her bag. The silence between them had become suffocating, a taut wire waiting to snap."Did… did you really have to remove Hannah from the team?" Sasha ventured, her voice barely rising above a mumble. She kept her eyes averted, afraid of the judgment she knew would follow. "I don’t think it’s… fair. She’s worked just as hard as the rest of us."Daisy stopped so abruptly that Sasha nearly bumped into her. The sudden stillness was like a vacuum, sucking the noise out of the surrounding hallway. Daisy pivoted on her heel, her movements sharp and predatory. A deep, jagged frown etched itself across her brow, her eyes narrowing into cold, crystalline slits.Sasha flinched, instinctively pressing her lips together until they turned white. She looked like a

  • He Left Her Broken, She Returned a Weapon   Chapter 115

    The silence in the bedroom was shattered by the sharp, rhythmic trill of Suzzane’s phone. She was mid-clasp with a pearl earring, her fingers trembling slightly as she glanced at the caller ID: General Harry. Her heart hammered against her ribs like a trapped bird. She knew what this call meant. This was the final piece of a puzzle she had been desperately trying to avoid assembling.She swiped "Accept" and pressed the device to her ear."The result is out, Mrs. Ashford," General Harry’s voice was clipped, devoid of the usual professional warmth he reserved for the town’s elite. It was cold, clinical, and ominous.Suzzane’s breath hitched. A sudden, chilling clarity washed over her. The vanity mirror reflected a pair of mahogany eyes wide with a frantic, desperate anticipation. Her pupils dilated, darting across the glass as if searching for a lie—anything other than the truth she feared. Her skin went paper-white, and her hands, which had been so steady moments before, now betrayed h

  • He Left Her Broken, She Returned a Weapon   Chapter 114

    Chapter 114 At school the next day, the cafeteria was a cacophony of clattering trays, metallic screeching, and the overlapping drone of hundreds of students seeking respite from their morning classes. At the center of this social ecosystem sat Daisy, anchored at the prime circular table by the window just exactly where she loved sitting down during breaks. She sat with a rigid, practiced elegance, her posture projecting an aura of untouchable authority. Her laughter, punctuating a lively exchange with her friends, was light and melodic, yet it carried the sharp, rehearsed quality of someone who knew exactly how she was being perceived. The atmosphere shifted abruptly, the air growing heavy and static. A shadow fell across the table, fracturing the light. Hannah stood there, backed by her loyal but visibly anxious friend, Gloria. Hannah’s face was a study in controlled agitation; her jaw was set, and her knuckles were white where she gripped the strap of her bag. “Daisy,” Hanna

    Chapter 20 Suzanne got into the guestroom, pressed her back against the door, inhaled the deep scent of her lavender soap that clung around the air in the room. The excitement that bubbled within her was profound. Few weeks ago when her husband had said he wanted a divorce so he could be with hi

    Chapter 18 "What happened?" Suzanne asked when she saw Michael approaching with a triumphant smile on his face. "Nothing serious. I only had a talk with him. Don't worry about it." Michael replied. The smile on his face suddenly disappeared as the picture from Davey's phone crossed his mind.
