As Stephanie handed over a drink to Jon, his phone suddenly rang. "Hey, Viv," Stephanie knew it was a lady who called up, so she whispered on Jon's left ear. "Work is over, it's time to celebrate" he looked at her but continued to speak to Vivian on the other line. "Have you got some news?" he took a few steps as she answered, "I've spoken with some of your security personnel, but they did advise that there are several things to look into," she was about to laugh when she said this, holding her jewelry box which is now empty. "No worries, Viv. I'll make sure this gets handled for you. I am so sorry," Jon was sincerely apologetic, but Vivian smiled with a fierce look in her eyes. "I am worried, if they took my jewelry, it will be fine. Just that they took the necklace you gave me." she touched her neck and the necklace that she is wearing. It was gold, with a heart shaped pendant. Jon gave it to Vivian on her nineteenth birthday, along with a huge teddy bear which he bought in Milan, Italy during a business trip. She didn't wear it in the morning, and she is sure that nobody has seen her wearing it within the hotel premises. Jon was a bit shocked. "The... The necklace?" "Yes," she answered with a smile. "The one you gave me on my nineteenth, you see Jon, I don't know what you may think, but I never wanted to lose it, as I've already lost you," she is becoming dramatic with her tone, but bit her lip and was trying her best not to laugh. "Oh, um. I didn't expect that you still have it. I'll do what I can, I promise." He was trying to assure her that everything will be alright. "Will see you in the morning, Viv. First thing," he hung up, trying to keep her calm. Stephanie was obviously frustrated, handed back his drink as he said, "Thank you." She shrugged it and smiled at him, "Are you free tomorrow night?" she asked. Jon looked at his watch, as it read 2:15 in the morning, he said to her, "I've got a tight schedule this week. The launch was of a great success and we'll have to deal with another event in a few days," he said, looking at the entire place as if looking for something in particular. "Looking for something?" she asked, and continued, "or someone?" He was able to get a glimpse from afar, noticed from the mezzanine a lady and a young man, talking and laughing. "I better go," he finished his drink and placed the glass on the marble top. "see you around, Stephanie. Congratulations!" he greeted her. He didn't give her a chance to say anything, as it was quite obvious with her face, Stephanie is not going to enjoy the night. Jon then walked towards the staircase, and went to where his eyes were fixed. From where he stood, when he gazed at the mezzanine floor, he can clearly see the beautiful smile of the young lady. Her cheeks were as pink as her dress, and her eyes were shining with innocence. "She must be enjoying his company." his eyes then went to see Alex, sitting on the couch across the table. He approached them and sat beside her. "You guys having fun?" he picked up a nacho and ate it. "Lots of it, sir!" Alex replied with excitement. "Why don't you order.." Alex cut him off, "She's allergic to alcohol." They were speaking about Cathy who was smiling at the two the entire time "This is the first time in my life that I've been to a place like this."  "Nice to know, Catie" he smiled and gave her a pat on the shoulder.

  • Her Lost Love   A Trade In

    Luke Martin was waiting in the visiting area, when Allison Albertson walked in. "I have been waiting for you for hours," he said. She took a seat across him and placed her hands on the metal table. "I assume you already made up your mind," she said to him. The guards went back to their posts, and so she continued. "Have you got an answer? Steph is already out there with Jon, waiting for an opportunity." Luke sighed, "If you make sure I won't be in trouble," she got up and interrupted his talking. "In trouble? I will get you out of here, with half a million dollars, what sort of trouble will you have?" He looked at her, and with a strong voice, he said, "I'm in. Tell me what you want to know about Vivian, I'll give you all the information you need." Allison smiled, went back to her seat and discussed with Luke.******Jon woke up to a ringing phone. He picked it up, with his eyes half closed. "Hello," he said. "Good morning, sir. It's m

  • Her Lost Love   Secrets

    Jon and Stephanie had dinner together in her suite. They never went out to the main lobby, or anywhere else to avoid the public eye. They had to make sure that Vivian would never have an idea that they were following her, else they may never catch her. He got back to his suite after they had eaten. "Goodnight Jon, I'll see you tomorrow," Stephanie said as he went out of her suite. He got back to his via the main door, and dialled Cathy's number. It was ringing for almost a minute, but got no answer. When he finally gave up, and was about to hang up, a man answered from the other line. "Hello," a man said, but then Jon asked, "Hey, it is Jon. Am I speaking to Jeffrey?" There was silence on the other line, Evan did not know how he would speak to him over the phone. He knew that his daughter had not told Jon yet about their reconciliation. "Hello?" Jon asked again, getting more worried. He worried as he knew that only Anna and Jeffrey would be with her, but there was a man with an unfa

  • Her Lost Love   A Father's Confession

    It was afternoon, the sun was about to set later than usual. Her mobile phone rang. Cathy picked it up from her table and answered the call. "Hey dad," she said. Evan Mills wanted to pick her up and take her home. They were able to discuss a few things the last time they spoke, and Cathy somehow understood why her father opted to leave their family after he had explained his side of the story. Evan answered, "Hi sweetie, would you mind if I pick you up?" Cathy took a few steps to peek through the window, and whispered, "He's still there." Her father was confused, "What was it dear?" she quickly replied, "Oh, it's Alex. He keeps on waiting on me. I'd come to work and go home, he would still be waiting outside." she started to be afraid that she instructed the security guard to allow her to wait for her father.When he got there, Cathy immediately went to him and got into his car. In a minute, Evan kept on looking at the rear view as Alex had been following them.

    It was a hot morning, and Cathy woke up earlier than the usual to prepare for work. "Hello? Um, yeah. We went out for a bit and she left the phone here," Anna explained as she answered an early phone call. "Who is it, Anna?" Cathy asked. The woman passed the phone over to her, told her that it was Jon, asking why nobody was taking his calls the other day. "Hi, I left my phone here while we went to grab some groceries," she told him quickly. "Are you in a hurry?" he asked. She was about to go to work and she told him she'll call him later in the afternoon. Jon agreed, and went on with his plans with Stephanie. As they both hung up, Cathy went to the preschool as she does on weekdays. When she got to St. Louis pre school, she saw Alex's car parked on the other side of the street. "What is he doing here?" she asked the security guard, who immediately closed the door behind her. "I do not know, Cathy. He approached me earlier and told the others that he is going to wait for you. Turns o

    Luke Martin woke up to a banging on his prison cell. "What the hell!" he shouted as he fell off the bed. "You got a visitor, Martin," the guard shouted as he unlocked the door and stayed outside. Luke fixed himself and changed his clothes. It had been more than a month since he was detained due to the attack on Jennifer Mills at Noughton's. In a few minutes, he went out to the visiting area and sat on one of the chairs of a long table. He was able to look at the woman whom the jail guard was talking to. She was tall, with long brown hair, wore a checkered dress of black and tan orange, high-heeled black boots and carried a pink handbag. She turned, and went walking towards him. She sat in front of him across a table, he asked her, "What a lovely woman who requested to see me. What can I do for you?" She smiled and introduced herself. "Hi, my name is Allison Maree, sister of Jonathan Albertson. I was the one who turned the cctv footage of your crime over to the police." Luke was extr

    "I don't know what you're doing here, I hope this has nothing to do with Allie." Jon said when the door opened. He did not lift his head and continued typing on his HP Compaq nx9600, but saw her reflection on the glass table. "I came here to your aid, Jon. Please don't push me away," said Stephanie, he looked at her, she was wearing a powder blue dress which touched her knees and had long sleeves and round collars. She walked towards him, and asked him. "I have spoken to Adrianna, Vivian's best friend. She was one of the models from the agency where I am from and," he cut her off. "What about her?" "I know where Vivian is, Jon." he looked at her, pushed aside his laptop and stood up. He leaned towards Stephanie and locked the door behind her. "What do you know?" Stephanie smiled, and handed over a letter to Jon which he unfolded and read silently.******Cathy kept staring at her Sony Ericsson k600. She was waiting for Jon to give her

  • Her Lost Love   Father No More

    The wind was blowing so cold, rain had been pouring down for hours which made it darker than usual. Cathy said goodbye to the kids, and waited for the parents to pick them up. It had been a month and a half since she started the part time job in the preschool, and it had gotten a bit difficult as she had been pregnant for almost three weeks. She waited for about an hour, and when they were all picked up, she decided to go home. It was darker and the wind blew stronger, at six o'clock, it was almost impossible for her to walk outside without getting all wet. She went out and waited for a cab, but all the cabs that went by were all booked. A car stopped just in front of her and the driver lowered the window. "Hey, it's raining so hard. Need a ride?" Cathy was shocked. The face was so familiar, with the hair that turned silvery grey, lines on the forehead and under his eyes tell a lot about his age. Cathy stood still, without uttering a single word, tried to figure out how the man foun

  • Her Lost Love   Sister In Law

    It was a weekday morning. Jon was having coffee with a few investors while discussing the year's plans which included expanding the business overseas. "I think it's best to be able to provide luxury in some areas in Asia," a man said, sitting at the last seat on Jon's left. Another man, who was sitting across, raised his hand and continued, "We have studied the middle eastern cities of Dubai and Abu Dhabi, the two cities were found to have rising economic status and in the following years, we have forecasted that hotel industry will boom as tourism evolves and it would be a great investment." Jon was looking at the records, "I believe that the East is a good target, we will be able to establish new trends," a woman said. Jon made a comment as he looked at his laptop screen, "Can someone send me a list of international celebrities who are known residents to these two cities." A lady got up, and advised her secretary who was seated at the back near the door, to conduct a research imme

  • Her Lost Love   Plans

    It was almost a week after the New Year. Jon had finally called Cathy and told her that he was not able to push Stephanie when he kissed him because of the media. "Publicity is key, you know that right? I love you and nothing will ever change that." He assured her that he promised her mom that he would take good care of her, but Cathy was not satisfied with the explanation. "So you did not bother to object when your sister introduced you to the media as a couple?" Jon told her that he has no plans of marrying any other woman, and that what his sister did was merely a publicity stunt. Cathy was resisting at first, but her love for him made her understand what her mind could not comprehend. She gave him an ear, which eventually made her feel alright. She has not told him about the pregnancy just yet, because she plans to tell him in person when he visits her in two months. When they hung up, Cathy told Anna about her plans, and she couldn't help but get excited. "Oh dear, is it not go
