Monica's POVI stared at him in shock. He was dead. I saw his dead body in the coffin buried. Hiw come he's still alive. Hale and hearty.I stared at him with teats filling my eyes.'Won't you come to greet daddy' He said and opened his arms wide for a hug.I ran into his embrace and hugged him tight like I wouldn't let go.I sobbed in his arms while patted me on my back to comfort me. I left his embrace and stared at him in suspicion.'Is this a dream? Please tell me this is real and I'm not dreaming' I said staring intently at him like he would disappear any moment.'It isn't a dream baby' He confirmed.'I missed you so much dad. I thought you were dead. How come you're still alive?' I asked.'I'm able to live now because I faked my death' He said.I stared at him in confusion.'How where you able to do it and why did you do it?' I asked.'Well, while I was in prison, I kept getting death threats from an unknown individual. At first, I didn't put more thoughts into it but at some po
Monica's POVI stared at him in shock. They weren't satisfied with imprisoning my father, now they wanted to kill him.'My greed made me ruin my plan before. I don't intend on doing that now. I want to plan slowly so I can hit them whete it hurts the most and to do that, I'll need your help' He said staring at me.'What do you need me to do?' I asked readily.He explained everything to me and I nodded affirmatively.'You can count on me dad. I'll make sure to help you carryout your plans discreetly' I said and he smiled at me in admiration.'Good. That's my girl' He said.'For trying to help me, I'll give you a gift. One that I'm sure you'll like very well' He said.'What is it?' I asked.'It's a surprise. Come back here tomorrow and you'll see what I'm talking about' He said.'Ok. I better leave now so Coralline won't be suspicious' I said and stood up.'Okay. Take care' He said.'I'll come back same time tomorrow' I said.He nodded.'Dominic see her out' He said.'Yes sir' Dominic s
Monica's POVI got home and met Coralline waiting for me at the door. I got down from my car and she rushed to where I was.'Where have you been? Why are you late? Why didn't you answer my phone calls?' She asked in one breath.Seriously? After all she has done, she still have the guts to act like she cares. She's really shameless.I forced out a smile and said;'I'm sorry, my car broke down on the way but a good Samaritan helped me to fix my car and I couldn't pick your call because my phone was on silent.'She stared at me suspiciously for a while but smiled.'Okay. But next time, learn to pick my phone calls so l can know if something bad happens, okay?' She said.I smiled and nodded.We entered inside and I went upstairs to have my bath. This night, I decided to put on a sexy nightdress.The dress could almost be mistaken for a lingerie. It stopped inches below my butt and barely covered my breast. Yes, I plan to seduce Damon. I bet he wouldn't be able to take his eyes off me and
Monica's POVI woke up due to the sound of someone knocking on my door. I groaned angrily because the person interrupted my sweet sleep but the persln didn't stop knocking.'Monica, are you awake?' I heard Coralline's voice.I stood up and opened the door.'Good morning' I greeted her.'Morning. Did I wake you up?' She asked.I nodded.'Sorry. I just wanted to let you know that I'm leaving for work now. I left your food covered on the counter. If you don't want to eat now, you can microwave the food later.' She said.'You're going to work this early?' I asked her.'What do you mean early? I'm even late. Goodbye, I'll see you in the evening.' She said and left.I went back into my room and picked up my phone. I pressed the on button and my eyes bulged out when I saw the time. It was already 9:35 am. Fuck. I was hoping to see Damon's face before he leaves for work.I guess I'll see him this evening then. I went to the bathroom to freshen up and wash away the remaining sleep from my eyes
I was too shock that I could barely move or speak. It was no other person than Vivian who was tied up on the floor. Her mouth was taped so she couldn't talk. Her teary eyes widened when she saw me.'What is going on? What is she doing here?' I asked dad.'She's the surprise.' Dad said.'You think I don't know that? Why is she here?' I asked again.'She ruined your brother's life. She's the reason your brother is dead. She pulled the trigger on your brother so now I want you to avenge your brother's death.' He said placing a loaded gun on my hand.My eyes widened in shock.'What? I can't do that. I can't take a life that isn't mine' I said.'She's the reason your brother is now six feet under. I'm sure he would want you to avenge his death.' He said.'But she was already paying for her sins in prison. She was sentenced to life imprisonment, remember? Why would you kidnap her from prison when she was already paying for her crimes there?' I asked trying to reason with him.'Imprisonment
Sophie's POVEARLIER THAT DAYI stared at Monica suspiciously as she served the customers in a hurry. She has been acting really weird ever since that customer slipped a note into her pocket the day before yesterday.I didn't ask her about it because I thought the man was wooing her but I guess I was wrong because Coralline called me yesterday saying she reached home really late which only means that she didn't go home straight yesterday.Today, I planned to ask her about the note but knowing Monica, she wouldn't tell me anything. So I planned out a different approach, I'm going to follow her to wherever she's going to and see what she's up to.When it was time for her to clock out, I picked up my purse and car keys and told the waitress taking the evening shift to lock up when it's time.I sneaked into my car and waited for sometime so she would move her car and she did. I gave her some distance before I started my car so she wouldn't notice I was following her.Like I had suspected
Monica's POV'She has seen us already. What are we going to do? What if she tells Coralline or Damon? We will be ruined. How could this happen now of all times?' I asked while panicking.'Keep quiet and let me think. This is all your fault, why didn't you watch your back?' He asked angrily.'How was I supposed to know that she would follow me and now you're putting the blame on me? She saw me murdering Vivian and all you worry about is how this is my fault? If she tells on me I'll be sentenced to prison.' I yelled.'Shut up. Just fucking shut your mouth. You let your guard down and she was able to follow you here and you still have the guts to yell at me? Just hope that she's caught if not we won't only land in prison when Damon and Coralline finds out about our plots.' He said.That made me keep quiet. Just then, Dominic came in panting.'Where's she?' Dad asked.'I'm sorry boss but she managed to esca....' He wasn't able to finish his sentence when dad suddenly shot him on his foreh
Coralline's POVWhen the meeting had ended, I went back to my office. I had left my phone to charge there. I unplugged my phone and saw two missed calls from Sophie. I also saw a voicemail so l decided to play it.I heard'Coralline, you have to be careful. Jake Humphrey is....' And then there was a pause.I could still hear her rhythmic breathing so I continued listening. Suddenly I heard her screaming for help and the voicemail ended.What just happened???I was puzzled. I called her back but she didn't pick up. I called her countless times but it was still the same thing. I decided to dail the line at her cafe thinking maybe she was there working.The call was answered but she wasn't the one who picked. It was one of her staffs and the lady told me that Sophie had left a while ago.That's weird, Sophie never leaves her cafe before closing hours.I decided to go to her house to check if she's there. I rang the door bell but no one answered.Maybe she's sleeping.Sophie always keeps
