last update Last Updated: 2021-08-23 09:18:20

“Mam, who might you be looking for?” The receptionist in the company of Chris’s company asked Sherry as soon as she stepped in side the lobby of the company.

It was almost time for the work hours to be over so she was curious when a customer appeared at this time of day.,

This was the second time she had visited Chris’s company since both of them were really busy in their own profession and work,

The first time she had visited him was when they were engaged a year ago. Her dream of marrying the man she had loved all along was more than enough to snatch her sleep form her.

So that day she had given a surprise visit to Chris. She had hoped he will be as happy as she was when he sees her but…

The reality was different. He looked at her with aghast expression and even his responses were unnatural and forced.

He even shouted at her to not come visit in his office as he detested his workplace being used to flirt and share love like that.

“Heh…stupid me.” Sherry mocked herself for believing his words.

Thinking about this was more than enough to bring a bitter taste in her mouth.

“Miss, your identification?” The lady at the reception once again politely asked the lady before her who seemed to be lost in her thoughts.

“Oh, right.” Sherry took of her sunglass in elegant manner which was neither flashy nor crude,’

“I am the fiancée of your boss.” She gave a sweet smile. “We are getting married tomorrow.”

Sherry had redone her makeup and hair before coming inside the company. Although she would love to present herself in ugly form to humiliate Chris, she still had her dignity as a proud and independent woman.

She seemed like a professional lady, a woman with vision so the receptionist did not doubt the credibility of her words but she still could not help but run her mouth.

“But miss, he has not said anything about marriage and such.” The receptionist was in charge of inquiries after all. If boss was going to get married than that meant it was a free day for the employees,

But no such notice had been given to them till today.

“He must have forgotten.” Sherry gave out a forced smile hiding the darkened expression in her heart and face.

“He is a very hardworking person after all.” Sherry thought about how hard he was working in the bed trying to satisfy her best friend.

“You bet miss. You are lucky you got him.” the receptionist was super excited as she expressed her worship towards the boss of her company.

“Heh….I know I am lucky. Very muck lucky.” Sherry agreed with her without any restriction.

‘So he hadn’t told anyone that he is getting married right?’ Sherry thought as she looked at the receptionist who was calling the president office.

“Hello President.” The lady gave a slight bow as she smiled like a lark talking to him.

“A lady claiming to be your fiancée has just appeared in the lobby. She says she is here for you.” The lady in the reception counted informed the boss in precise and concise manner.

After putting down the phone she looked at Sherry with a polit and a little jealousy filled eyes.

“He says you can directly go to his office.” She relayed the order of the boss.

“Thank you.” Sherry thanked her ignoring the look in her eyes and made her way to the president room for the second time in her life.

………………………..

Chris looked at the table which was not messy enough since it had only been used for some minutes, He placed a cup of coffee, few files and papers and engrossed himself in the computer, glaring at the screen intensely.

It seemed as if he was writing the formula of atom bomb; judging from the amount of wrinkles in his forehead as his eyes were squinted pretending to be busy, even though all he was doing was scrolling through the twitter and looking at the photos of some hot chic and babes.

“Knock…Knock”

The door was knocked from outside the door.

“Come in.” He cleared his throat as he welcomed the person inside the office.

Sherry, dressed in plain but smart clothes entered the room with her pencil heels clicking on the marble floor.

“You are really busy honey.” Sherry approached the man slowly and sat in front of him.

“Hey, darling~~” Chris was startled by her sudden intimacy in calling him so he also returned her the greeting using an intimate word but it came out rater oddly.

“Sorry I have been too busy with work.” He winked at her in a flirty manner and came out of the chair.

He walked towards her and extended his hand to hug her, to take her in an embrace.

If it had been Sherry a day ago, then she would have jumped on him right now but after what she had seen and witnessed she felt his hug to be chains of restraints that was made for only suffocating her.

“I wish you will make some time for me as well.” Sherry spoke in a whisper acting the part of poor maiden when he hugged her but felt her heart scrunch at his forced show of affection.

Hugging was the only thing they had done as couple. She realized she even did not have a first kiss.

All this time she thought they were waiting for marriage to have kisses and make love but she had finally realized it was her wishful thinking.

How blind she was to not realize the real face of the scoundrel who had been cheating on her for so long.

She could smell the premium jasmine perfume on him which was favorite of Bella. Tilting her head sideways she saw that there were hickeys on the inner collar of his neck.

She was once again reminded of the passionate time they were having together, her heart burning with anger rather than jealousy.

“I have time for you now.”

Chris gave a charming smile but that had suddenly lost its appeal to her. In place of that she was reminded of the well crafted face of the man she fell on top of at the parking lot today which looked godly even though all she saw was his sharp jawline and high nose bridge making him look like a model straight out of fashion magazine.

“Let’s go.” Chris pulled her out of her trance and gestured her to move with him.

“Didn’t you say you want a new dress?” He asked with a polite smiley face as if he was a marketing agent from a bride’s gown shop.

“Yes, after all its our marriage tomorrow.” Sherry emphasized each words, her mouth and lips curving up in a hooked smirk.

    Sherry inserted the key into the lock and twisted it. With a loud click, the lock opened.Inside, the two people huddled together froze at the sound of approaching footsteps. They scrambled to hide themselves in the shadows.Sherry crouched a few centimeters away from them and gently tapped one of them on the shoulder. “Uncle,” she whispered. “Aunt.”“This voice…”The man on the ground trembled. He abruptly raised his head and stared at the figure in front of him. He could barely make out her silhouette in the dim light of the basement.“Sh–Sherry?” he croaked, his voice dry and cracked.“Yes,” Sherry replied softly. “It’s me. I’m Sherry.”“Sherry?” It was her aunt this time. “Sherry Lona?” She raised her head and crawled forward, reaching out to touch the girl before her.It wasn’t an illusion. It really was her, alive, in the flesh.“Sherry… Sherry… Did you come to save us?” the aunt sobbed, clutching her tightly. “Please, child… take us away from this hell.”“Hell?” Sherry’s voice

    Belingjun and Adannael arrived at the intersection and stopped their vehicles. They climbed down and began searching the area for signs.“Belingjun!” Adannael called out when he spotted faint tire marks veering off-road behind a thick patch of bushes. He rushed over, and both men examined the ground before exchanging a knowing glance. There were two distinct sets of tire tracks.“The Lieutenant must have gone after them,” Adannael said. Without wasting another second, they both ran back to their jeeps and started following the tracks.After several hours of driving through the wild forest, they finally spotted an abandoned car up ahead. They stopped and cautiously approached it. Each man took a side, and at a silent count, they opened the car doors simultaneously.“This…” Speechless, they both looked at each other in horror. What they saw inside was two corpses, placed casually on the seats.“We have to report back to His Lordship,” Belingjun said, closing the door and taking a deep b

    “Lieutenant Stephan is missing?” Aldrevon asked, eyes wide, as if he couldn’t believe what he was hearing.The Vice General lowered his head and gave a stiff nod. “The other teams lost contact with him shortly before sunrise.” Team Badagar couldn’t reach him, so they contacted the base headquarters about his disappearance. When he heard the news, he rushed straight towards Aldrevon’s chamber.“What are the chances?” Aldrevon asked, tightening the robe around his waist. “He’s either out of communication range,” the Vice General said, “or, in the worst-case scenario,” he paused. “Lieutenant Stephan is dead.”Aldrevon cast him a sharp look. The Vice General lowered his gaze, afraid. It was only that morning he knew about the direct assassination order from Aldrevon that Stephan had been carrying out. When things hadn’t gone as planned, he had chased them down himself.“Vice-General,” Aldrevon called him out before he could lose himself in his thoughts.“Y-yes, Your Lordship?”“Get me t

    As they exited the forest, the jeep rolled into a desolate countryside. The road stretched ahead, mostly empty, lined with scattered houses and distant figures. Whenever someone caught sight of the vehicle, they turned away or retreated in haste.A middle-aged woman stepped forward to cross the road. Sherry instinctively slowed down, but the woman froze when she saw the vehicle. Clutching her child tightly, she backed away with a fearful look and vanished behind a fence.Sherry frowned. “Why do they look so afraid of us?”“They probably think we’re from the military,” Levian replied, eyes scanning the surroundings. She gave a small nod. That more or less explained it. When they’d first arrived at Udyous, the people at the port hadn’t welcomed Stephan or his men exactly.“The location Andreas gave us is just a few kilometers ahead,” Levian added, leaning back. They didn’t have time to concern themselves with the country’s internal affairs.The road gradually narrowed as they drove. So

    “The fuck…?”Crouched in the jeep, the bodyguard watched everything happen through a crack in the window. When the so-called High Chancellor peeled the synthetic skin from his face, revealing someone entirely different, the bodyguard’s brain just… froze.He didn’t recognize the man, but judging from Stephan’s expression, that man wasn’t just an impostor. They knew each other.Outside, the two men stared each other down. “Since I’m in a good mood…” Stephan muttered again, cracking his neck, “…let’s settle this for once, and for all.” He tossed his gun to the ground with a metallic clunk.Levian raised an eyebrow. “What are you playing at?”“Let’s play a game,” Stephan said, slyly smiling.“We fight. No weapons. If you knock me out, you win. I do the same, I win. But…” he glanced down at the gun, “…whoever reaches one first gets to finish it. One bullet. One corpse.”“That’s how we do it in the military.”“You are on.” Levian‘s expression darkened. Then, wordlessly, he dropped his weap

    “Lieutenant!” The soldier saluted as Stephan stormed inside the motor pool, a ferocious expression on his face. Stephan jumped inside his jeep and extended his hand out.“The keys!” Stephan wasn’t in a good mood. The soldier could see that. Scared he might get caught in the crossfire, he threw the keys into his hand. Instead of landing on his palm, the key fell inside and dropped near his feet.“Moron!” Stephan cursed. “All of these bastards are good for nothing.” Still cursing under his teeth, he picked up the key and started the jeep. “I should have followed right after that old man.”The guards at the entrance immediately lifted the barricade to let Stephan’s vehicle through. Stephan was feeling a little tipsy after the party, so the cool night breeze helped him clear his head.He arrived at the cross-section within 5 minutes. “The fuck?” Stephan noticed a man against a tree. Holding his gun, he jumped down from the jeep and vigilantly looked around, checking for an ambush. His

    When they walked out of the hall, Sherry spotted Andreas leaning against a tree, smoking lazily. The moment the guests began exiting, he flicked the butt to the ground and crushed it beneath his heel before casually walking up to the first couple.“Have a safe trip back to your villa, Mr.Aeloria,” he said with a polite nod to the man rushing out with his wife clinging to his arm.Aeloria didn’t respond. He slipped into the car without a word, and the bodyguard assigned to him started the engine, speeding off into the night.Andreas turned to the couple approaching him. “I hope you had an amazing night, High Chancellor Jorik Valrmon,” he smiled, extending his hand towards Levian.Levian took it and gave it a firm shake. “It’s all thanks to your preparation.” His brows lifted slightly when he felt something rigid pressed between their palms, rigid and metallic.He glanced at Andreas, who only smiled and withdrew his hand. “Well then, goodbye. I’ll see you on the other side of the sea.”

    The soft chirping of crickets and distant howls of wolves filled the night air as Andreas silently walked along the dark pavement. After a while, he arrived in front of the base camp entrance. The two soldiers on night duty immediately got alert upon hearing footsteps coming out of the dark jungle path.“Who goes there?” They raised their rifles, pointing straight at the approaching figure.“Oh, it’s just you, Mr. Andreas,” one of them sighed, lowering his weapon. “You are back already?”“I said I was going for a small walk to cool off my head, right?” Andreas replied with a soft smile. He pulled out an identification card from his pocket and showed it to the guards. “I can’t be gone for too long,” he said as he gestured towards the building where the banquet was being held. “The banquet isn’t over yet.”The guard glanced at the ID, then gave a small nod.“Right,” he said with a half-smile, stepping aside. “Go on in, Mr. Andreas.”Andreas thanked the guard and walked away, shoving his

    “I am here to pick you up, High Chancellor,” the bodyguard who had driven them to the villa curtsied as he opened the car door. “His Lordship is waiting.”“Let’s go,” Levian spoke in a dry voice as he pulled Sherry towards him and climbed inside the car. The bodyguard sneaked a peek at the couple in the backseat through the rear-view mirror. He still had not recovered from the incident before.“What are you looking at, mister?” Sherry asked, glaring at him. He hurriedly shook his head and started the engine. Within five minutes, the car pulled out in front of a grand, white building. They had reached their destination.Stepping out of the car, Sherry sized the building with her eyes. Just standing outside the door, she felt the oppressive aura that was waiting for her…waiting for them, right behind the door. “Are you alright, baby?” Levian whispered softly, holding her hand and giving it a gentle squeeze.Sherry shook her head with a smile. It was too late to back out now, not after
