Poison me softly Chapter 101: It's Only Right
Miles away from Jude’s penthouse, in the heart if the city, was the D'Angelo's family house. In the lounge, Brittany sat cross-legged, tapping away instructions to one of her men. It was an assassin she sent to kill the man who she has sent after Cecilia. It had taken great lengths to find Jude’s location. But she had successfully found his hidden penthouse. She read the message the assassin had sent:[The target has been eliminated]A smile of satisfaction graced her lips, as she typed out.[Excellent]Across from her Benjamin pocketed his phone with a sigh, then glared at his sister. “What’s making your wicked soul happy? Did someone die?” He sneered.She chuckled, her eyes looking over him with coldness. “In fact, someone actually did.”Benjamin made a face like he’d swallowed something sour. “You say it like you’re proud of it.”“I am proud of it.” She said simply. “Pride is the natural reaction to doing your job well.” She wasn’t going to let him know she was after Jude and
Poison me softly Chapter 100: Look like A Family
The countdown of seven days to the auction, loomed over my head. I anxiously waited as the days passed. I noticed Jude came around often to be with the twins. Despite how much I tried to prevent it, he kept on worming his way into moments with them. When they were eating breakfast, he sat at the table. When they were outside playing, he would join them when they asked. Before he went out, he asked to see them. It wasn’t just frustrating me, but also torturing my mind. Each time I saw Alex clinging to his leg, or Allison laughing at him, it made my stomach churn. I’d began to question my decision.Was it right to keep the kids from having a father? Right now, they were young and hadn’t asked any questions. But what about when they got older? What if they grew to resent me from hiding them from their father. Beside me, Mae appeared on the balcony. She must’ve seen the tension on my face, because she squeezed my shoulder supportively.“It’s overwhelming to see them like this right?”
Poison me softly Chapter 99: The Invitation
"I need to leave." Jude said as he stood in front of me.I quickly tucked my phone into my pocket and looked up. "What?""There are things I need to handle."I wanted to ask why he was telling me, instead of just walking out. But the way his eyes lingered on me and moved briefly toward the twins, made me stay silent. "You'll be safe." He added, as if he was entirely sure. I nodded, still unable to muster a verbal reply. A few seconds later he left. The moment he disappeared, Mae immediately leaned over."What was that sound?"She remembered what I’d assigned our laundering messages to sound like. I unlocked my phone and looked at the message, my eyes immediately widened."No way." I gasped. "What?" Mae asked, waiting with anticipation. I stared at the screen, taking in the entire message. "It's Dr. Venom."“Oh.” She nodded. “Our biggest client.”Of course she remembered exactly who he was. We had made a billionaire from him, and had used the money he gave us to restart our lives
Poison me softly Chapter 98: If Mae Leaves, I Leave
CECILIA’S POVStanley wasn’t my major concern. Allison and Alex were. Stanley had been inside one of the most heavily guarded rooms, surrounded by guards and surveillance cameras. Yet someone had still managed to reach him.And had killed him, and gotten away.If an assassin could get to Stanley, then they could get to anyone.They could get to me.They could get to Mae.They could get to my children.The thought made my pulse race harder than it already was. My stitches pulled painfully as tension seized my body, but I barely noticed.Beside me, Mae looked equally unsettled.Neither of us spoke for several moments. We didn't need to. The same fear was written across both our faces.The maid had already left, probably to report back to Roman who would currently be dealing with the chaos downstairs. I heard the sound of footsteps approaching, and immediately pulled shut the twin’s room. Mae stood by my side, bracing herself. A second later Jude appeared at the corner. The moment his
Poison me softly Chapter 97: You Still In The Game
Jude had been discussing plans with the men in the inner circle, when the lights went out.Without warning, the room was plunged into total darkness. Conversation around the table stopped instantly. Jude didn't move from his seat, didn't reach for his phone, didn't show any reaction at all. But the occurrence perplexed him. Five minutes passed in silence. The men around the table shifted in their chairs, the sound of fabric and creaking wood the only thing breaking the stillness.Then the lights flickered back on. The hum of the air conditioning returned, and the projector screen at the end of the table blinked back to life mid sentence.Nobody commented on it, even though a power outage in such a heavy powered penthouse was quite odd. Jude glanced toward the door just as it opened. Roman stepped in, and the look on his face told Jude that something was wrong.Roman bent his head, to whisper in Jude’s ear. "During the outage." Roman said, keeping his voice low enough that the ot
Poison me softly Chapter 96: Assassin
I stood still and waited.One minute passed. Then two. By the fifth minute the lights flickered back on.The air conditioning hummed again. Everything returned as if nothing had happened. The power supply was back. I frowned, thinking that was quite odd. The penthouse had backup generators. Why would the power be out for five whole minutes?The thought lingered in my mind as I continued upstairs.When I reached the twins' room, I immediately pushed the door open. Relief washed through me seeing they were both safe. Alex sat curled up on the sofa while Allison lounged comfortably beside him, and Mae was there too. The moment she saw me, she stood."Everything okay?" I asked. Mae nodded. "Alex got scared." My son immediately protested. "I wasn't scared." "You hid behind the sofa." She retorted"I was investigating." He argued. Allison burst out laughing and I couldn't help smiling.Mae folded her arms. "You were terrified." "I wasn't." "You were." "I wasn't." The argument cont
