"A goodbye kiss? I just told you a story and you...." Emily trailed off as she felt Leonard's lips on hers."You think too much," Leonard smiled and placed a kiss on her lips again. "I will come and pick you up when you close from work," he said opening the door for her and motioning her to leave.* * * * * * * * * * *When Emily got to the office she was surprised to find Bella seated comfortably in her office."How are you here right now?""Does it matter?" Bella said as they rushed to hug each other, they both missed each other so much, Emily was sure she missed Bella more than Bella did and Bella thought the same that she missed Emily more than Emily did.She was so happy that Cam was able to get her here without anyone knowing, he had woken her up so early this morning and told her to get into the trunk of his car, he had driven her before opening the trunk to get out then he had driven her straight to the office and told her to call him when she was done."But really how are you
Chloe couldn't believe this nonsense, who the hell did he think he was to have spoken to her in such a disrespectful manner, she hissed at the thought that she had forgotten herself and not given him a tight slap. How dare he? It wasn't that she couldn't afford her meal, she just wasn't prepared for today.She had planned to spend it with Leonard not to be disrespected like this, she had even had to wait so long to avoid washing the restaurant dishes so Cam could come out and pay.When it was already getting dark, she decided that if he didn't come outside she would be forced to make a run for it as she wasn't planning to wash any goddamn dishes.* * * When Cam left Chloe, he called Leonard immediately and placed it on loudspeaker."Where the hell did you take my sister to?" He heard Leonard's voice after the second beep."Good afternoon to you too," Cam smiled turning into another street. "You should know she is in safe hands."Cam wasn't surprised that Leonard was the first to know
"Well, there's nothing to talk about as we are past that, because like I said it's not a big deal.""Well if it's not a big deal then we might as well talk about it, you slapped me remember.""What exactly do you want to ask me? Is it about the kiss or my feelings?""Both.""I will not have this discussion with you so just take me home.""Will you be my girlfriend?""Drop me home Cam, Mum will be back soon."Bella wasn't interested in this conversation, she remembered that night and what had happened between them, how she had kissed Cam back, how he had grabbed her on the butt and instinct had awakened her to give him a dirty slap.It wasn't that she couldn't talk about it but Leonard was certainly not going to entertain it, she didn't know how he had gotten to see them together but the next day he had come to her room to warn her to be very careful and she knew the underlying meaning under the word careful.When they were younger, Leonard had gotten into a fight with one of her class
Emily remained quiet throughout the ride, she still couldn't believe what had happened and she didn't understand why Leonard and Karen had gone to the car and stayed for quite some while. All she wanted to do was go home and Leonard seemed to be doing just that.He drove her straight home and dropped her off without saying a word, when she came down he zoomed off and left her there. Emily watched his car in full speed as far as she walked into her house, the first thing she noticed was that the door was opened.Was Chloe also just coming, Chloe was fond of leaving the door open when she stepped in. It was after she had settled in she would remember what she had done.When Emily entered she stared at a man sitting on their chair with two bodyguards beside him and her mother and father sat on the floor tied together and ducked taped.What was going on? Who was this man? It wasn't long ago that they had all gotten kidnapped and now this? How many people was her father owing? Was this wha
"No Sir, actually I....""Get off my phone, you idiot," Leonard yelled cutting the call angrily. What was going on tonight? First Karen, then Bella, and now this nonsense. How could that idiot man be owing Travis? He and Travis had been long-time rivals and to put an end to it they had decided not to ever cross paths.Leonard stayed in his lane and Travis on his.This was so not good."Is everything alright Dam?" Bianca asked worried."Yes," he replied. "Excuse me."He walked out of the office and headed for his car as he heard Cam shouting at him."Hold on," Cam rushed to his side."What the fuck do you want?" Leonard asked stopping in his tracks.Cam took a step back to avoid Leonard from hitting him again, his eye was already getting dark from the blow, and he didn't need another."What is going on? Is it the company?""Nothing I can't handle," Leonard replied walking again."Really... nothing...then why did Jack just message me? And you need to stop making your mother so worried s
A dress?What was going on? Did kidnappers now dress up their victims and make them comfortable also this could mean her father had exchanged her to be the woman of whoever might be their boss. If she played it cool and explained her terms to pay back the money, she could certainly get out of there and once she did she was ready to face her father's heads for the nonsense that was happening to her right now.She rolled out of bed slowly and walked to the window to look at the environment, she could see a lot of different cars parked outside and bodyguards in black suits parading around. How the bloody hell was she going to get out of here? She thought to herself.She walked to the wardrobe, opened it, she stared at the little dress. It was just a mini long-sleeved black gown, what was this?It wasn't like it wasn't her style but if she wore it didn't that mean she was already obeying his rules it was best she obeyed and be a good girl if she wanted to get out of there.She brought the
Dead? That would be the last thing Riverstone would want to hear as regards his daughter not after the threat he had just faced a few hours back, he just hoped his daughter was on her best behavior and not doing anything that would warrant Travis to want to blow her brains out because he would surely do it without a blink of an eye.As Travis walked hurriedly to the backyard of his mansion, he hopped into his car as the other guards drove behind him because the swimming section was far from the mansion. When he arrived, he didn't fully get down from his car when he caught sight of a lady driving his car at full speed passing him as Stone followed suit in a motorbike shooting at his car continuously."What the hell?" He shouted, getting back into his car as he signaled his men to chase after her. "This fucking bitch," he kissed his teeth twirling his car at full speed towards the direction Stone went.Emily ducked a couple of times as bullets flew in different towards her. She gasped
When they got to the hospital, the doctor had already been informed beforehand of their arrival as Leonard didn't want their normal nurses and doctors to attend to her, so they assisted him and placed her on their hospital bed on the top floor which was for private cases."Sir you don't...""Let him." The doctor cut in on the nurse who was trying to inform Leonard that he couldn't follow them into the theatre as he had been holding on to Emily's left hand right from the car, the elevator, and now to the theatre room.When they got into the theatre room, the doctor informed Leonard to put on their hospital clothes and wear a nose mask, which Leonard obeyed without complaint. The doctor was confused at how quickly Leonard had gone to change while they transferred Emily to the surgery bed.When Leonard came back he stood afar allowing them to do what they needed to do, the first thing was to get her back to live. She seemed like she was dead as she lay lifeless on the bed. The doctor ad
