    “Your woman huh”lisa asked leaning on the wall, Ethan placed his hand by her side as he stared into her eyes,she rolled her eyes looking downwards,he held her chin raising her face to look at his,they stared into each other eyes lost for the moment.

”yeah my woman I like it”he said the words rolling on his tongue like he's tasting it

“You are marrying me for business,quit the affection”lisa answered.

“Seriously I thought we were over that just now I showed everyone you're mine”he said earnestly.

“Whatever tell your brother to keep his hands to himself it's gross”

“Obviously he won't go unpunished I was only nice because of the camera,I have a flight to catch,I stopped over when I saw the video,needed to clear some air,don't stay out long,I don't want my woman staying out late,and you need to rest planning wedding can be stressful so go home early”

“Yes sir”she said chuckling.

He leaned and kissed her before stepping out.

Cindy stepped before him”hi Ethan”she said her voice soft.

“Hi uhmm,what's your name, Lisa's friend right,nice to meet you”

He walked out with his entourage, Cindy scoffed holding back unshed tears she's clearly hurt,her only identity has always been Lisa's friend,and she's going to change that.

Lisa held her chest,her heart was thumping furiously threatening to burst out of her chest,she took deep breath to calm herself but she felt worse,it's obviously the kiss,she told herself as she felt hot all over, she bumped into Cindy.

“Cindy I'll be leaving now”she felt a wave of dizziness wash over her,she felt hot and pressed at same time.

“Are you fine”Cindy asked concern in her voice.

“Yeah,just pressed”she said the first word that came to her mind.

“I'll take you to the restroom”Cindy gently led her to a room,she stepped in as the room blurred and the world swirled why is she so hot,she removed her shoes.

“I'll go get your bag when I come we'll leave”Cindy said stepping out leaving her alone.

She stumbled to the restroom, bending over the sink she washed her face repeatedly,but she felt no relief,she heard the door creak open, sighing in relief, she stumbled out.

“Cindy”she called softly.

“Hello sunshine”she'll recognize that voice anywhere,her blurred vision saw him moving closer she moved backwards hitting the wall behind her.

He leaned over her hands beside her head.

“What do you think,will my brother still marry if he found out we had sex”he asked his voice taunting,he kissed her neck sniffing her and placing kisses,she stiffened, fighting the waves of dizziness and her reality.

“You won't do that , Cindy is coming in any moment” Lisa said desperately her voice shaking as the heat she felt increased.

“is she” he asked mockingly with a one sided smile”Well,well it seems like Cindy abandoned you”Micheal said laughing as he watched her helpless.

“Oh thou strong and mighty,now you're powerless, completely at my mercy,never knew a day like this would come”he threw his head backwards and laughed clearly pleased.

She looked around her eyes spoting a wine bottle,she wriggled from his hold running towards the dresser,she picked the bottle smashing it on the wall as the contents poured bathing the room in shades of red.

“Stay away”she said waving the bottle in front of her,he stood unmoved before her smirking totally unbothered.

She panicked cold fear seeping into her bones,her hand trembling,tears running down her face.

“Well two can play a game, actually there's no use, you'll soon fall unconscious,by morning our videos will be everywhere”

She stepped towards the restroom inch by inch.

“Stay away”the bottle slipped from her hand as she opened the door she shut the door behind her,waves of dizziness washed over her slowly the world blurred as everywhere turned dark.

 Lisa slowly opened her eyes disoriented, where's she ,why does everywhere hurt,she stretched her protesting muscles feeling the cold floor,she slowly stood up and successfully unlocked the door after a few attempts, 

crawling outside since her legs can't support her body,she slowly got bearing of her surroundings as she looked at the sight before her,she screamed falling on her butt,her eyes opened wide in horror,she moved closer, breathing hard with every step she took closer, 

Micheal was lying on the floor,a bottle stabbed to his stomach , the floor was red from blood and wine,she screamed cradling his head.

“No,no, Micheal I didn't do this,I didn't do this”she sobbed loudly,as she craddled him closer.

The door burst open, Cindy ran in she screamed loudly stepping backwards as people rushed,the sight was ghastly,they screamed,but some recovered in some seconds as they recorded the scene each eyes looking at her accusingly.

“Cindy I didn't do it”she screamed, Cindy stepped back running out. Someone was calling the ambulance,she looked at the judgemental eyes around her,

“I didn't do anything to him”she pleaded.

Soon paramedics rushed in as they carried him on the stretcher rushing out.

 She tried to follow but her legs could not support her, slowly she fell into darkness.

    Yeah his name holds power,but at what price.Scar hissed as the thought crossed her mind,they are currently at another meeting,to say every deal they've been making is successful is such an understatement just the presence of Lucien and the malcom’s legal aid behind her, every acquisition went smoothly in her favor.She should be happy but she can't be, because the gloomy news of Ethan's company folding according to the news articles hung above like a gloomy cloud, coupled with the fact he's not picking his call.Scar scoffed,as her mind returned to the present meeting.There's one constant face everywhere she went, Roland the legal representative of Mila who has made it a duty to try to replace her after she left.“What do you mean, you've got 35% shares against my 30%”Scar asked, still in her relaxed posture,she's definitely not freaking out Lucein has it all under control.She told herself.“Well someone has a rat for a brother”Roland said from the other end,the shareholders arou

    Scar fell on the floor,her body trembling.“No,no,no”She said repeatedly trying to hold onto her consciousness.She could feel the memories clawing against her conscious mind,her head banging from a headache.“Stop,stop”She screamed as she was dragged into a memory,The door opened as the housekeeper stepped in, kneeling beside her unconscious form.With just a phone call a standby doctor ran into the room,as they lifted her onto the bed.“I have good news for you Ethan,Lisa had another traumatic episode and I assure you it's not because of you”Marcus said from his side,they are currently in an elevator.“Marcus don't I'm feeling bad enough”Ethan said,his hands tucked in his coat pocket as he stared at his reflection on the elevator.“If you feel bad then fix it,talk to her,walk through the healing process together, there's no way Blair won't tell her,you are only postponing the inevitable”Ethan scoffed as he stepped out of the elevator, walking into the conference room, around t

  • SCAR   This seems easy

    Lucein and Scar walked into the conference room as the round table filled in succession.Roland sat at the head in a completely relaxed posture,beside him sat Cindy,still wrapped like a mummy,but her eyes were spitting flames.This wasn't just a shareholders meeting, this is a battle ground with high stakes.The meeting started with immediate effect.Lucein doesn’t look at him. He sets his folio down, opens it, and addresses the corporate secretary, a woman in her 50s named Mrs. Chen. “Mrs. Chen, for the record. This special meeting of the board of Liet luxury brand was duly called on October 27th at 5:14pm pursuant to Section 4.3 of the Amended Bylaws. Notice was served to all directors. We have a quorum.”Mrs. Chen glances at Marcus. He gives her nothing. She nods, once. “Noted.”Lucein slides a stapled stack across the table. It hits the wood with a quiet Thump. He still didn't look at Roland at the head of the table,who currently has an amused smirk on his face.“As of 9:00am
