Imogen’s POV

I sighed for the hundredth time a I unpacked my bags. I had been so sure that last night was my last night in the Livingston’s mansion. But to my surprise Agatha had come in as I was leaving and told me that I could continue to stay. That was all she said before she left the room

I had stared at the shut door in confusion. Whenever Agatha made up her mind on something it was always final so what changed? Was it something that Julie said that made Agatha change her mind?

But whatever it was, I was glad that I could continue to staying here. This has been the only home I know, ever since my parents bloody divorce. And the thought of moving back in with my father was terrifying.

I went to thank Julia for whatever she said to my mother to stop her from throwing me out of the house, but Julia was nowhere to be found.

As I tucked the last dress into the wardrobe, I heard a knock on the door. My eyes immediately lit up with hope. Hopefully it would be Julia. I desperately neede

  • Passion or Revenge    53 – LIVINSTN

    Imogen’s POV I sat in a booth at the end of the room, with a clear view of the door, tapping my manicured nails nervously on the table. The waitress walked up to me for the third time in one hour. “Would you like a refill of your coffee, ma’am,” the red haired, middle aged woman asked, holding a coffee pot in her hand. “Sure,” maybe now she would leave me alone to worry in silence. This would be my third refill. Somehow she knows when my cup is empty and shows up asking if I needed a refill. Almost like she was subtly telling me that I couldn't stay in the restaurant without ordering anything. Or in this case, I couldn't retain my sit if I didn't have another refill. “Would you like anything else?” she asked with a practice smile as she poured my coffee. “No,” I replied curtly. My eyes kept darting between the doors, every time I heard it open, and the window. It was drizzling outside and the window was coated with fogs making it a little difficult to see anyone outside.

  • Passion or Revenge    52 – Stay the Course

    Imogen’s POVI couldn’t sleep.I moved around my house restlessly, from my bedroom to the sitting room, back to my bedroom then to the bathroom and finally to Ollie’s room. I leaned against the door frame and watched my little miracle sleep.My number job was to make sure Ollie was safe at every point in time and to make sure he had a normal childhood and by extension, a good life. Whatever this was that Genevieve discovered was dangerous and it cost her life and the life of her little daughter, Mae. I couldn’t do that to Ollie, if I died, who would take of him. He could be thrown into the system or worse, the Livingston’s would take him.And if I was as unlucky as Genevieve, Ollie could die too,Leila’s words replayed in my head. ‘Let it go.’I exhaled noisily. I had to let this one go. There would be other less dangerous ways of bringing down Mason Livingston and the rest of his family. I would stick with Tim’s plan, it might be dangerous but at least it doesn’t involve the mafia.Q

  • Passion or Revenge    51 – Beautiful Devil

    Imogen’s POVI tapped my fingers nervously on the steering wheels of my car, parked just across the road from Genevieve’s parents’ home. People trooped in and out of the house, all dressed in either a dark suit or a black dress, with glum looks on their faces and all had umbrellas over their heads.I exhaled noisily, feeling nervous for reasons I couldn’t quite fathom. All I needed to do was blend in, find her parents, give them my condolences and find out whatever I can. There was absolutely nothing to be nervous about.Feeling my courage return, I grabbed my umbrella and stepped out of the warmth of my car and into the cold air. It was drizzling, making the ground sticky and wet.God, I hated the weather in these parts.Hurriedly, I made my way into the house, where it was warm, dry and gloomy. It wasn’t difficult to spot her parents – well parent – just her mother, a chubby woman with short blond hair. People were flocking around her, probably muttering condolences and spewing wor

  • Passion or Revenge    50 – Only for the Plan. Nothing Else.

    Imogen's POV The plan had been simple, drop the note and leave. Then kick back and watch Mason panic. Once panic sets in, he would slip up and I would be there to catch him and expose him.But instead, I decided to snoop around his bedroom and his laptop for anything that might be incriminating.That didn’t end well, as here I was in his room, scouring my brain for a ‘not suspicious’ reason for being inside his room. It didn’t help that he had my note in his hand. Now he would be thinking that I had kept it there.Think Imogen, think!I cannot have Mason doubting me, he might also choose to make me and Ollie disappear forever, just like he did Genevieve. If only I had found her earlier, I could have saved her from Mason. But I knew nothing about her or how to find her. Since I could not save her, I would have to get justice for her.“I…um…needed to see you,” I sputtered.He narrowed his eyes, suspicion evident in his blue orbs. I had to do better.“I couldn’t stop thinking about you

  • Passion or Revenge    49 – The Red Note

    Mason’s POVDifferent waves of emotion flooded my body, as the news headline replayed in my head over and over again – anger, sadness, confusion and more anger.“I asked you to do one thing Max! Make her disappear before those bastards would get to her!” I barked into my phone, as I paced around my bedroom. I had assured Genevieve that I protect her and her baby. I had promised! Yet, I couldn’t keep the promise I made to her! Genevieve had entrusted her life and her daughter’s to me and I let them down.“I tried but they got to her before I did.”“Genevieve was the only witness we had. And now that is gone, do you understand what this means?” my balled fists shook violently. I was back to square one again, just when everything was beginning to come together!“I am so….”“I will give you a call later,” I hung up, tossing my phone on the bed, before I would say something I would regret. It wasn’t Max’s fault completely, I shared part of the blame. If only I had not involved Genevieve in
