RHONDA

My mouth parted as I stared at Malcolm Hitler. A man built like a god, with his gray eyes, deep brown hair, chiseled face, and breathtaking muscular body. He was dressed in an all black suit set. He never liked colors.

When did he come into town? I wondered.

“Rhonda!”

He beamed the moment he spotted me. He closed the distance between us quickly and placed a light kiss on my cheek. “What a pleasant surprise.”

Before I could even respond, Theodore stepped forward and shoved Malcolm away fr

    RHONDAGuilt overwhelmed me, and I could barely function. It was Malcolm who kept reassuring me, telling me it wasn’t my fault. How wasn’t it my fault? I had dragged him into the middle of my marriage crisis, and now even his company was suffering for it.How could people be so blind as to choose Theodore’s side? How could they believe such blatant lies?Now, the fast-growing SkyTech company was facing a huge setback. And Malcolm couldn’t even travel to the headquarters at West Haven to try and salvage the situation because he still had a pending case here in Brighton City.Different thoughts kept jamming in my head, and I felt overwhelmingly frustrated. I needed to do something to cool my head.So, I got into comfortable shoes and went out on a run. Victor and Kane followed, though. They were still my bodyguards and mostly only followed me when I was out alone.“Do you also believe them?” I asked Victor breathlessly as we jogged down the street.He was quiet.I flicked my gaze at Kan

    RHONDADressed in a wine dress, I hooked my arm around Malcolm’s as we walked through the red carpet while the security tried to keep the paparazzi away. Malcolm looked divine in his all-black suit set. He was the most handsome man alive, and I couldn’t be more proud that he was mine.We arrived late and the launch had already started. The hall was dimly lit as we quietly found somewhere to sit. The moment I settled on a chair, my eyes caught Yvonne’s in a corner of the room. I gently tugged Malcolm’s sleeve to show her to him, only to realize he had already seen her.Fury blazed in his eyes, his gaze lingering on her for a few seconds before flicking away.Our attention returned to the speech Theodore was giving.“Finally, the moment has come to show you all what DTech has been building. Although it might come as a surprise to you, another company released this project before us. But we built it, and it was stolen from us. They hacked into our system and stole the prototype, after ta

  • Revenge, Best Served in Codes   107| Steal him?

    RHONDAThe police interrogated the only man alive among the kidnappers, and they found out that the person who hired them was a woman, and they had even been instructed to terminate Leo. They would have done it after they woke up from their alcohol-induced slumber. If Leo hadn’t called, if I hadn’t forced him to memorize my phone number since he was four, then we would have lost him forever. The mere thought caused a roaring combination of rage and fear to travel through my veins.Right now, I was at Diamond Pack Estate to visit Leo. Ever since Malcolm had suggested a DNA test, my stomach had been in a constant state of anxiety. I desperately hoped that he was mine. The thought of this now made me feel really stupid. Why didn’t I carry out the test back then and blindly believed them?“Luna,” one of the maids approached me, a wide smile on her face as I walked through the double oak doors of the Rose Hall, “welcome back.”“Thank you,” I offered her a small smile, “where is Leo? Is he

    RHONDALeo was taken to the hospital for a thorough medical examination after spending several days with the kidnappers. He looked pale and really malnourished. My heart broke each time I looked at him. While he was being checked by the doctor, Malcolm and I sat in the waiting area.Theodore and Layla appeared at the hospital after a while. Theodore seemed really worried. But Layla? I couldn’t read her countenance.“Where is he?” Theodore asked as he rushed towards us. I nodded towards the room.“But the doctor is...”He didn’t wait for me to finish my sentence before bolting away.Layla stood there, arms crossed over her chest as she glared at me.“How did you find him?”“Are you perhaps worried that your cover has been blown?” I shot my brow up.“What cover?” she snapped, guilt written all over her face.“Never mind,” I waved her off.From the corner of my eyes, I spotted the doctor and nurses leaving the room and I quickly turned my attention to them.“Is he good?” I asked as I lea

    RHONDA“Leo. Is that you?” I quickly asked.“Yes. I am scared. Very scared,” he sobbed.“Where are you? Do you know where you are?”“I don’t know,” he sobbed. “They are all... drunk. They passed out and I took their phone. I dialed your number and...” he sobbed.“Stay with me, honey, okay? We’ll find you,” I quickly assured him. I looked at Malcolm and he was already dialing a number.“Is that the police?” I asked him.“No. I do not trust them. There’s a mole amongst them. We can’t give them that information yet. They could go behind our backs and ask them to evacuate,” Malcolm muttered.“Mommy?” Leo called my attention back to him.“Yes, baby. I am still here. I am not going anywhere,” I assured him. “Can you describe where you are now?”“There are a lot of rats. It’s a very big house.The ceiling is high up. It is dusty. There are no beds. There are... equipment?”“I’d like you to help trace a number through a call. From the boy’s description, the location is likely an abandoned war

    RHONDALayla gasped at my response but quickly regained her composure.Shrugging, she blew out a sharp breath. “If so, what did you hear?”“Do you want me to reiterate your evil plans to you?” I shook my head. “I’d rather narrate them to the police.”She swallowed, her expression filled with uneasiness. “What did you hear?”“That’s none of your business.” A frown claimed my face. “Move out of my way.”“And if I refuse to?” She shot a defiant brow up.“The only thing you should be worried about now is rescuing Leo and not plotting some evil plans against whoever. Even though you don’t look even a bit affected by his absence.” I took a step closer. I was so close that I could hear her breathe. “Do you really not know where Leo is?”“Do not accuse her of kidnapping her own son!” James groaned from behind as he came to stand beside her.He wrapped his arm around her. “Layla might be anything, but she’s not one to kidnap her own son.”“Oh. Is that so?” I asked.He nodded.“But you do belie
