“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

    “Stop it!” I snapped. “C’mon baby, it’s just a selfie”. She whispered. “I’m not a picture person”. I muttered, yanking off her phone from her grip and went ahead to delete the picture. “And I have a name, I’m not your baby”. I smirked, while getting dressed to leave the hotel room. “But you fed on my boobs like you were one. She whispered, pushing her boobs up, as she walked back to lay on the bed”. “Can you just shut up?” I snapped, my irritation growing.“C’mon, let’s go another round” She cooed, turning her butts to my direction.“I know you love it this way”. A sultry smile spread across her face. I sighed, shaking my head with disgust.Then she stood up from the bed, taking calculative steps towards me. “So when are you finally going to take me to your h” She asked, her hands caressing my chest. I warded her hands off my chest, then stretched out a check. “I don’t give fat checks in my house”. I retorted. Seeing the amount of money written on the check, h

  • Entangled With My Soon-to-be Brother-in-law   Chapter 40: Emilia's POV

    Ethan’s words pierced deep, stabbing every chamber of my heart. I felt light headed, my chest panging with an intense sharp pain. I stood still against his closed office door, my hands holding my chest, struggling and panting for air. “Ugh” I groaned silently, my eyes shut. I wasn’t sure if rejecting his advances turned him into this mean person that he is now, or this is just how he has always been. But one thing was certain, something definitely changed. From being so mindful of me to being this cruel.I finally caught my breath, staggering my way to my office. I was in a complete mess. I had experienced Ethan’s thoughtfulness and warmth, which made me fall in love with him. Despite how much humiliation he has caused me, my heart was still beating and yearning for his love. I know this is a dangerous path, considering the fact that I am getting married to his younger brother in a couple of days from now. But the most heart wrenching fact about all of these is

    “I must get rid of Ethan, as fast as I can”. My eyes narrowed, my fist clenched as I muttered under my breath, slamming Ethan’s office door. This was exactly what I was trying to avoid before he fired Thomas, the former accounting officer. With Thomas by my side and an increase to his salary, I could have successfully gotten away with it. Refunding the money wasn’t an option, as I had exhausted the funds in my bank accounts to purchase the goods. My mind kept reeling with my next move of action, while standing in the elevator that was taking me to the floor where my office was. The only option I had was to get Ethan out of the way. His existence never mattered to me anyway, so his execution will only have an effect on my aged parents.By then, my father will have no choice, than to completely hand over the company as his only surviving child. A spiteful grin spread across my face, as I walked out of the elevator, rubbing my temples gently. My racing heart came to a s

    “The next time you pull a stunt like that, you will be fired”. I snapped as Emilia walked into my office. My eyes narrowed with anger seeping through. “Have I made myself clear?”“I.. I’m sorry Sir. It won’t happen again”. Emilia swallowed hard as she apologized. “Good”. I said, my expression stern. “Now let’s move on to more pressing issues”. I declared, my anger dissipating. “The company’s annual dinner comes up soon, and I want you to handle the preparation.“Everything you need, make it known to the accounting officer and to me also.” “Is that understood?”“Yes sir”, She answered, her gaze cast to floor.“Now, get to work”. I dismissed her, my tone icy. Just as Emilia turned to leave, her hands reaching for the door knob, I called out. “Wait!”Emilia stopped and then turned back, her expression questioning. “Anything else?”I stared at her for a second and instructed. “I need you to make a reservation, for one night at a hotel”. My countenance i

    My anger boiled over, my eyes blazing in fury, with my grip tightened on the collar ends of his shirt. “What the fuck have you done?” I yelled, my tone menacing. Christine’s eyes widened in shock as she jerked off her seat, trying to rescue Ethan from my grip. “Emilia, you need to stop right now!” She snapped. But my anger wasn’t swayed. My hands locked tight unto Lucas’s shirt, demanding an answer, without flinching.However, Lucas remained calm, a spiteful grin worn on his face. He then held my both hands, gently removing my grip off his shirt, with a menacing smile. “Next time, act accordingly”. “I’m your husband to be”. He whispered, his breath blistering against my skin. My face twisted with resentment, my irritation grew. “You disgust me Lucas and I hate you with every passion in me”. I barked, loosing my hands off his grip, before turning on my heel, storming into the living room. My legs took me as fast as it could to Alice’s room. Tears layered in m

    “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

    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! Jennifer Smith??” “It’s a lieee”“My Goodness!” I exclaimed, tears welling up in my eyes. “This can’t be true.”I froze for a second in disbelief. “Jenniferrrrrr.”Then she stood up from her seat, my arms wrapped in her warm embrace. “Look at youuuu”. Jennifer said, her face lit up with a radiant smile. “What are you doing here?”“Wait, you’re the new staff?” Jennifer asked, her eyes searching for answers.I nodded, trying to contain my excitement. “Yeah, I resumed today”. I responded, a bright smile spread across my face. Her expression suddenly turned serious. “Wait a minute, it’s been how many years now?”“Six years right?”I sighed deeply.“You just disappeared, Emilia. I searched everywhere for you but no one seemed to know your whereabouts”. She muttered,

    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
