Entangled With My Soon-to-be Brother-in-law Chapter 27: The Chase
The persistent ring of my phone flickered my eyes open. I reluctantly reached for my phone to see Daniel, the pharmacist’s caller ID flash on my screen. I had told him last night that I wasn’t interested in meeting up anymore, but Daniel wouldn’t take no for an answer. He insisted that I must fulfill my promise and I couldn’t stand him up just like that. I sighed deeply, rubbing my eyes gently with the dorsum of my hands. Sleep still lingered in my eyes as I picked his call. Daniel’s voice erupted from the phone immediately I picked. “You really think you can stand me up and go scot- free?”His voice was stern and menacing, his words welding up knots in my stomach. “Oh please shut the fuck up.”“You must really think that I will be so foolish and bring myself so low to sleep with a commoner like you, just for a mere help that anyone could have rendered.”“You are really delusional Daniel.”“Do you fucking know who I am?”I snapped, sleep clearing up from eyes.

With an intense ache panging my chest, I forced my eyes shut, hoping I would sleep and not wake up again. I was at the end of the rope, void of strength to carry on. Every bleak of hope was dashed out. I kept sinking in misery, deeper and deeper. The reality of my new life had finally settled in. A life I was forced to choose. I shut my eyes even harder, praying for my final sleep. I didn’t know when sleep overwhelmed me. Hours into the sleep, I saw myself running and running, with darkness spread about. I kept running and screaming for help. My head turning from left to right as I struggled to wake up from the terrible nightmare. I started hearing chattering of voices from afar, a very faint noise. The noise became loud and close, like a deafening roar of a volcano at the verge of eruption. My eyes snapped open, my upper body jerking off the bed. My mouth hung wide, gasping for air.The realization that it wasn’t real but a nightmare, calmed my thrilled nerves.

The room seemed to hold its breath, the air thick with tension. My declaration hung in the air, hitting Lucas as a shock, taking my mother by surprise. Ethan took a seat, a hint of smile dancing on his lips. His countenance elated, as he wiggled his legs to the sides. Ashley on the other hand was beaming with excitement. She tried so hard to conceal it, but I could see through her body language. I didn’t seem to know why, but she looked like someone who just won a lottery. Lucas’s face turned red, fire blazing from his eyes. He clenched his fists so hard, like he was resisting the urge from going physical with Ethan. Reginald Brooks nodded, his expression unfazed.“Very well then. Hence forth you will be working closely under Ethan as his personal assistant”. “This is will foster a tight bond between both families”. “And to you Lucas, I expect a smooth handing over to Ethan and that you also work closely with him”. “Let him guide and show you how a company is suppos

She’s lucky that twat came to her rescue. She won’t be that lucky next time. I don’t know what hold Ethan has on her, but she’s mine. Emilia is mine. I’m going to fuck her real hard. I’m going to punish her with my cock. Whether she likes it or not, she’s getting married to me. She can then decide after my inheritance has been willed to me, if she wants to stay or get a divorce.

I stayed in her arms a little longer, pouring out my built up misery. Her arms felt like my father’s warm embrace wrapped around me, a breath of comfort to my soul. I felt like a child, who ran down the stairs but tripped. Expecting to fall to the ground, getting bruised and injured, but fell into the arms of her father. The last time I felt this genuine hug was shortly before my father passed. Where he beckoned to me for a hug, our last hug before his passing words.“It’s okay Miss Emilia, please stop crying.”Alice begged, drying out the tears from my cheeks with her apron. “Alright, let’s go fix the meal together”.I sniffed back the tears, clearing my nostrils.“Oh no Miss Emilia, you could just locked the door when I leave”.“You need to rest ma’am”. She replied, her voice low and calm.“Let me Alice”. I insisted. “Are you sure about that ma’am?” She asked, concern etching her face.I nodded, insisting I wanted to follow her to the kitchen.

My temper flared, my jaw clenched in frustration as I picked the call. “Tyler, what do....”But I was interrupted by a strange feminine voice, leaving me aghast. “Hello Miss Emilia”.I pulled the phone away from my ear to check the caller ID.It was then I realized, it wasn’t the same number that called the previous day. “Are you there?” She asked, her voice soft and calm. “Y..yeah”. I stuttered, my anger replaced with curiosity, my mind wondering who the lady was. “This is Juliet, Mr. Reginald’s secretary”. “I’m calling to remind you about the board meeting that starts in an hour”. “Mr. Ethan has also been looking around the office, searching for you”. “Board meeting?” I asked, my mind puzzled. “Yes ma’am, didn’t you check your mail?” “I sent a brief yesterday evening”. Email? I muttered to myself. How did she get my email address? Shitttt, Ethan’s father.I recalled. “I’ll be there shortly”. I assured, hanging up the call. Resuming late on my first da

The HR’s voice jolted me out of my reverie, and I blinked, my gaze focused on the HR’s face. Initially, my sight was blur, but as my eyes locked onto her facial features, recognition dawned. “Wait!

“Lucas right?” Jennifer asked, my gaze drifting back to her. “Yeah, Lucas”. I replied, curiosity etching my face. Jennifer sighed deeply, her head shook in dismay.“I have seen him a few times, with these same men”. “I fear that these men aren’t affiliated with the company”. Jennifer said, tucking her hair strands behind her right ear. I just sat there, listening to her, my gaze lingering around the table he settled in, hoping he doesn’t notice me. I was certain that if he noticed my presence, he could cause a scene, hence drawing people’s attention to myself. I wasn’t up for such drama. I thought inwardly.Lucas and the strange faced men spoke discreetly, their expression void of emotions. A few moments later, Lucas stood up, his fist clenched as he stormed out of the restaurant. I quickly ducked my head to avoid being noticed. Relief washed over me seeing that he had left. Shortly after, the waiter came with our order, with a calm smile worn on his face. T

“Our next move is to track him down and demand for the goods we paid for”. “Either by torture or dialogue, the goods must be recovered”.I whispered, my voice menacing. Reports got to me earlier that morning, that the underground marketer I had contacted for a job, hasn’t delivered the purchased goods. I made a quick stop at the Medilone restaurant, a few miles from the office, for an urgent meeting with my fellow underground marketers, to draft out a plan. As we settled in our seats we discussed further. “If we don’t get him immediately, they will come after us, so we need to act fast”. Rogan urged, his voice barely above a whisper. “I think Martel is the man for the job. He can handle urgent cases like this”. I suggested, rubbing my temples. “Alright, put a call through to him then”.Alex muttered. Just as I picked my phone to dial Martel’s number, Thomas my accounting officer’s call came in. “Fuckkkkkkk”, I snorted.It completely skipped my mind that I had sch
