When she heard the familiar voice, her heart started racing, it was like she was losing her head. It wasn’t possible, Jared wouldn’t have known that she was being locked in that secluded room.“Jared, sweetheart, is that you?” she asked weakly hoping that she wasn’t hallucinating and when she heard his voice next, she thanked her stars for making her meet this special man who was with her and was ready to help her when she thought that everything was over.“Hold on, I am going to get you out. Don’t you worry yourself at all, okay” Jared assured her and for the first time since she was locked in to the dark room, she felt like breathing again, with Jared she felt no fear at all.“Oh….Jared, you will always find me wherever I go. I am so lucky to have you” Celine muttered as she held her heart with both of her hands. What she was wondering was how Jared got to learn about where she was.One….. Two….. Three… the door gave way after Jared kicked it with all his strength. Someone might ha
But now it was getting really late and April was still silent, she wondered if everything was alright with her. That daughter of hers was sometimes impossible, oh…what if she drank in excess and forgot everything that she was supposed to do? She had agreed with her mother that she will text her as soon as the deed was done.Up to now, she was still waiting for her text and the worst thing was that Patrick was starting to act impatient.“Jemma, I think it is becoming late. Can we leave already” She heard the voice of her husband and she came back to reality. Patrick was already bored and he was only putting on a happy face with his wife so that there won’t be any bad publicity on his image.“What! “Let us stay a little bit longer. The music on the back ground is good and I want to listen to it” Jemma said. Patrick stared at her with astonishment, when did the woman began to listen to old classic music. He could swear that he heard her say that it was for the people who didn’t have anyt
However there was one man who wasn’t intimidated by her and in fact he was more deadly than her “April, you better mind your own business, I have come to take my wife back home. Did you think that I can love a person like you? You are so pitiful to my liking “Jared said impatiently.“Why Jared? You keep on choosing her over me, don’t you care that she is illegitimate, she has no roots at all and yet she is the one who has caught your attention. Jared I have done everything to make you mine, what else did you want from me?” she asked with hate in her eyes.“All we want from you is to leave us the hell alone, April. I left our father for you and yet you keep on following me around. I told you that Jared will never love you, he is mine and he belongs to me. Nothing you will do in this life time will ever make him leave me” Celine snarled back at her.“Shut up slut, I wasn’t talking to you. You are not in a position to say anything in front of me and let me warn you that you might have Ja
“What! You are talking nonsense, just shut up” Jemma snarled.“The thing is that April kidnapped me and locked me in this room. If it wasn’t for Jared, they were going to kill me, Daddy. I only came to tell her to leave me alone after she posted claims on the media that she was Jared’s wife and that our marriage was fake” Celine finished explaining and April shot him a dark stare.April sneered” Dad, don’t listen to her. It wasn’t me who posted it, It was Jared’s grandparents” she said shamelessly forgetting that they have asked her not to mention their names.” How could you be so shameless, you dare say that about my family?” Jared asked.“April, how many times did I warn you to leave Celine alone? Jemma, I am so disappointed in you, didn’t you think that I didn’t know what was going on. If I find out that the thugs that you brought in my home stole any of my belongings, I will send the two of you out of this house. This is not a joking matter, I am so fed up with you ” he laughed s
April could afford a smile as she hugged her mother tight on the shoulder.Some one cleared his voice” do you mind telling me what is making you happy? Just a moment ago you two were arguing, not that I care about it, but I know it is just something evil” Patrick commented with a don’t care look. He had drunk a little and it was making him feel free to state his mind.Jemma sneered “Why are you interested in what we are talking about when you don’t even care about your daughter. Patrick ,when was the last time you listened to her problems or better yet when was the last time you stood up for her? All you do is defend that child from hell?”Patrick laughed sarcastically” I have been defending the two of you all this years but what have I got to show for it? I can’t do it any more, I have chosen to mind my business and only care for those who care about me. Anyway, I came to tell you that I will be sending someone here to look at my things. If anything turns out to be missing then yo
The announcement came” every one please be seated as the court will start shortly”The plaintiff lawyer was the first one to stand up. Ivan knew the man, in fact he was one of his mentors back when he was still gaining feet in his career. He began to wonder where Joel got him from. He had heard some rumours recently that the lawyer was unscrupulous and that was why he cut his ties with him.“Your honor, my name is Mr. Daniel Cooper and I will be representing the plaintiff. In my introduction, I would like to state that I have studied this case in length and I have to say that my clients have the right to the land which I will demonstrate shortly. Thank you ‘he finished and sat down.Joel nodded his head in agreement. Celine thought “how could someone be this evil? Next the defendant’s lawyer stood up. Ivan Barret also did his introduction with his head held high with confidence. Even if he looked to this man before for advises, he will not intimidate him at all. Now more than ever, h
Director Erick couldn’t contain his anger anymore and ended up shouting “He is lying, I personally met him with my fellow director and we signed all the agreements. We paid him the full amount of the money. How can you lie like that? Please tell the truth.”The judge hit the table” Please behave in my court. The defendant lawyer, advise your people to have some disciple or I will throw them out of the court.” I understand your honour” Ivan replied politely.“Director Erick, please calm down, I will handle everything” Ivan tried to console him, he was already worked up and he was sweating everywhere. That stupid man has been paid and so he had the guts to look into his eyes and tell a lie.“You see ,my client had been threatened because they knew that they didn’t have the rightful papers. So my honour, I arrest my case because it is clear that my client is the owner who is being wronged here” Daniel said and went to sit down.“Alright, I think that we have heard from the plaintiff si
The man assumed as if he didn’t hear what Lina was saying and addressed Jared “Please, you should go home before any unnecessary scene again. Whatever happens here will automatically affect the outcome of our case. I will take care of Lina, okay”Jared chuckled sarcastically” he was just happy to see how miserable Lina was looking but what amazed him was how Ivan had the patience to stand in for the woman when he didn’t even like her.Celine turned to Lina” Bestie will you be, okay?”“Celine let her be. She is in good hands. I think it is so good to let them sort out their issues or continue the hate.” Jared muttered excitedly and Ivan stared daggers at him. Here he was compromising with the unbearable woman to protect him and Celine, he wasn’t even appreciating it.“Don’t worry about me, at least I have told that piece of shit my mind.” She said but inside her mind, she kept on screaming” please don’t leave me alone with him, Celine. I really fear this jerk. What will he do to me? Bu
