NICOLE “This happened a day and a half ago. Chloe and her entire family have been murdered. And the people who did that are coming for me that means also every person who is close to me, which are you guys and my family. I already sent the children to their father, and I want you to follow them. Christian can protect you more than you can protect yourselves. You will tell him that I sent you to him. He will give you jobs in his company and find you both a secured place to live, but I don’t want you to tell him anything about what I told you right now about the situation we are in. I want you to both to pack your bags and go right now because we don’t have much time.” Once I was done talking both were looking at me with horror on their face. “What did you say happened to Chloe?” asked Lisa with her voice breaking. I smiled sadly while also breaking. That man killed her in front of me. Th could never know how it feels when someone close to you gets killed in front of you. “He killed

CHRISTIAN“She said we should come here and get you to find us some safe place to stay and also give us work here in your company since we had to leave the companies we worked for” Mila explains.“What’s really going on with Nicole and who the hell is after her, most importantly what did she do to anger those people?” I asked. I really want to know the real issue. I want to know what’s going on with her. Why is she in a run and sending everyone who is important my way. Whether she likes it or not, I’m also involved in his shit.Mila and Lisa looked at each other before they looked at me. I just knew they won’t tell me anything.“We’re sorry but we can’t say anything. We promised Nicole. She is the only one who has the right to tell you anything about what’s going on” Lisa spoke for the first time since they came here.“Then I’m also sorry but I can’t help you. And also, sorry that you’ve came all the way here for nothing” I don’t want to do this, but they leave me no choice. I have to

NicoleAfter taking my best friends to Christian’s company. I went straight to the airport to take a fly home to Detroit, but first things first. I need to call my brother Nathan he needs to make fake IDs for our parents so that they could go and stay with our distant relatives in Barbados until this whole situation is resolved. I know for a fact that Mr. Sullivan is going to trace all my steps. I know once they land in New York they’ll find out that I’ve already left for home but what they won’t know is where the hell I am.I took my cell phone to call Nathan. The call ranged for a few seconds before he answered. “Little sis”“I’m in trouble” I went straight to the point. Time is not on my side. There is no point in dragging the matter. They’ll know the truth soon anyway.“How can I help you?” he also went straight to the point. When I was young, he was always there for me no matter what I needed, and I know through this difficult time he will also stand by my side.“I need you to ma

NICOLE“It’s Nothing. Just don’t cook any food” I said awkwardly. I don’t want to say anything until Nathan comes home. After I spoke, I saw them exchanging a look but before they could say anything more about this, I changed the topic. I’ve accepted my fate but that doesn’t mean my family has to go down with me.“Nathan should be on his way home, right?” I asked. So much time have passed since I called Nathan requesting him to get our parents new IDs and passports he should’ve been home already by now. I wonder what’s taking him this long.I checked the time it was past three in the afternoon.“Yes, he has been gone for a while now, but he didn’t tell us where he was going” my mother answered.I nodded. “Good. Can you both please sit down and let’s wait for him” my face was all serious. Nathan has to hurry up, we have to send mom and dad to the airport soon. Reunion time is already over as it began.“Princess, What’s wrong?” Noticing my change of attitude my dad asked. I could hear t

NICOLEI smiled at him. “I named the girls Amandla and Amanda, and named my son Anthony.” I told them.“They have lovely names, and they are so beautiful too” my mother complemented her grandbabies with a smile on her face while she was still busy scrolling on my phone’s gallery, looking at more pictures of the kids.“I’m disappointed princess” came the voice of my papa and my face fell at that. My dad continued. “But not because you got us grandbabies but because you didn’t trust us enough as your family and you had to go all through all of that alone with no support from the people who were supposed to love and care for you through thick and thin, but you decided not to inform us. I can’t even imagine what difficulties you went through trying to raise the kids on your own”I stood up and went to knee in front of both of them. “I wasn’t alone papa. Mila and Lisa were with me, and we made a new friend in Italy her name was Chloe” I smiled sadly. I haven’t even had time to grieve for h

This isn’t only about the money to them, but it is about their entire mafia business operation and secrets that will be their downfall if they fall in the hands of their rivals. “She can’t go that far. We will find her and make her pay for trying to act smart” “I just hope you’ll act on that threat because we both know you always lose your mind when it comes to her” John commented and got a hard look from Silas that got him to swallow his words. Just because they were best friends and grew up together it didn’t mean he can disrespect him anyhow. Josh checked the surveillance around the city

NICOLE"Nikki!" Lisa called out and I quickly pull on my strappy heels. “In a minute” I shouted. I can hear they are panicking. I need to hurry up. After one final look at the mirror, I was ready to ascend from the bathroom, throwing open the door. I ascend the stairs. They both look at me like they’ve never seen me before I narrow my eyes. “I’m done” I announced as they both clap their hands. "OMG You look so fucking hot!" Mila smiles widely, "The way you look so fucking hot right now, I bet you won’t be coming back with us” she sang while saying that. Here we go again. I mentally facepalmed myself. I’ll never hear the end of it.“Why wouldn’t I come back with you tonight?” I asked while playing dumb, as if I didn’t know what they were hinting at.Mila rolled her eyes “Don’t act like you don’t know what I’m talking about” she was getting annoyed with me. Every time they try to set me up with someone I always decline and according to them I’ll die alone. I don’t get what the problem
