Sophia shifted restlessly in her sleep, her slender body intertwined in the bedsheets. Her brow furrowed, Her lips parted slightly, She was finding it uncomfortable to sleep whenever she closed her eyes all she could hear was Ophelia's voice “Just go there and face your fears” came the voice again ringing in her ears.Sophia stood up abruptly “What the fuck!” she yelled angrily. She entered the bathroom stripped naked and put on the shower letting the water spray on her body freely.Coming out of the bathroom, her soft black hair gurgling wet, she adjusted her towel with a frown still on her face, sitting by the bedside she was lost in her thoughts.“She is just a woman! why is she so difficult to confront!?” If am her grandson's wife why can't just go to her bravely and let her recognize me, rather than running helter-skelter like a fool? I must go without Logan's consent, and that's the only way to make me feel at peace she affirmed standing up and walking towards her wardrobe.She
“Where is Sophia!” Logan yelled at the top of his voice. Bianca looked at him without saying a word.Outside, A car screeched to a halt, revealing an angry figure it was Jude Piers Logan's father. He slammed the door shut, fury etched on his face. Bursting into the house, his voice boomed, “Logan! What were you thinking?”.“Father!!” Logan called out, Grandmother trapped that innocent girl in this house Logan explained Ignoring his father’s laments.Jude walked closer to him and slapped him hard across the face. “So you are telling me you came back here mainly because your girl was trapped here”. “Father!!” But….Logan wanted to explain more when his mother gave him another slap angrily, “apologize at once” She commanded.“Am not saying a word without confirming Sophia was okay!” Logan stated angrily.“You sure have grown up my grandson” Bianca mocked. She stood up on her feet and walked closer to Logan. She leaned closer to his ears and whispered “Then let’s go back to your younger
Celine walked towards the dining sluggishly she had caused another mess yet again and Lucas had locked her in the house for the whole two days. She was suddenly brought out and the maids bathed her and changed her clothes saying her father wanted to have dinner with her.Everyone believes it's a dinner but she surely knows he sent for her because he needs her to do another dirty work for him. Deep she wished Logan had killed that day then she would have escaped her father's wealth.“Good evening father!” she greeted with a faint smile.“Sit down!” he said without looking up.“Thanks, Father!!”“Who did you say the guy was again!?” Lucas asked finally raising his head to look at the look straight in her eyes hoping to get an answer.He was Logan Piers, the only grandson of Bianca Piers. Celine replied tiredly.“Hmmm,” then how can you mess up with that kind of person? Since it has come to this we need to change our plan.“To what again Father!!” Celine inquired it was evident she was g
After dropping Georgina at school Dave offered to drop Milana at home but she refused and asked to help her to beg her boss to accept her again. “Why don't you work for me instead!?” Dave inquired with a smile. No thanks, sir, I will just work with my boss Milana declared with a discontented face. “Sir!??” you are calling me sir and not a freaky playboy. Dave mocked. I..I.. Please can you just forget about the past Milana said butting her lips slowly and turning away in silence. Of course, I already did but I can't let you return to that man, he might molest you and I wouldn’t want that Dave replied with a smile. But.. Milana wanted to talk but she didn't find the right word to say. Just work for me and I will pay double the amount of your salary, Dave enunciates Sincerely. Okay!!! “You mean I will work for the Sunclairs company!?” Milana questioned with a confused look. “No not the Sinclairs!” You will work as my secretary in my house. Dave replied cheerfully. Nope
Dave was attending the stairs in a rush to see Milana sighting her sitting patiently on the sofa he couldn't help but glare as he looked at her in awe.Milana turned slowly to look at him with a smile causing him to glare more he glared so badly that he did not notice where he was going he smiled cheerfully and opened his mouth to say a word but he slipped and fell with a loud thud.“Brother!!!” Georgina screamed and rushed over to him.Milana also rushed towards him and helped him up she expected him to at least feel pain but what he said next shocked both Georgina and Milana.“You are so beautiful!” you looked like an angel sent directly from heaven he Smiled dazzlingly while facing Milana. Her cheek turned red immediately and Georgina angrily left his hand causing him to fall back on the floor.Milana was in a trance she believed all that she was hearing since they were all in her dreams.“Rubbish!” Georgina yelled waking Milana from her trance.Dave stood up and smiled faintly, A
Sophia tailed the car till it finally stopped in front of a big mansion. The girl in the car got out and entered the mansion before she entered she looked right and left to be sure no one was following her before she finally entered the house.Sophia rushed towards the gate before it could finally close and luckily she got there right on the spot, she sneaked in and tiptoed inside to her amazement the girl was nowhere to be found again she examined all the rooms in the mansion but she found Nobody.Confused she walked out of the mansion with a straight face. Maybe Logan was right she was already losing her mind. She must have missed Savvanna so much that she keeps seeing her split image in a random woman.She was so lost in her thoughts that she did not watch where she was heading she stumbled upon someone who hit her even more like a rock.Ahhh she winced in pain rubbing her forehead painfully. She looked up only to see a huge man looking at her with terrified eyes.She looked at his
“What are you thanking me for?” Dave asked confused. “For everything!” I knew you were a billionaire son and you pity me so much that's why you employed me but I was so ungrateful and meddled in your family business. I must be so stupid please forgive me and I will keep working for you. Milana narrated with a sorry face.“Am also sorry for throwing the ball at you”. Dave apologized sincerely.It's okay am just afraid because of what happened with my sister it’s not my fault and most of the billionaire’s sons are cruel.What happened to your sister do you mind telling me!?” Dave inquired finally breaking the hugs.He forced her to marry him because she needed money for me to complete my school and after he was done using her he dumped her without pity. My sister always acts like she is happy but deep down she is not. So I made a vow to never get involved with any billionaire. Milana declared with a faint smile.So Sorry about that, I also missed a woman like that, the day I saw your b
Adrain woke up to find himself in a dark room on his knees with his hands tied up and his legs tied to the back. He tried to move, but he couldn’t because one of the ankle bones cracked and he felt a terrible pain in his abdomen like he was being struck by lighting. He looked around and everything was dark and silent. He couldn’t even see a thing.Suddenly, everywhere brightened up, and all the electricity in the room flickered with light.He closed his eyes and finally opened it slowly. Looking at the room closely he gasped in fear as he saw the position he was in.He was kneeling on a rear glass that if he shook too much would break and he would fall on tons of sharp metals which would kill him instantly. As if that wasn't enough another sharp metal was tied to his body that if he tried to move to the front or back it would penetrate in his stomach and kill him slow and steady.Looking down to his stomach he was already bleeding and feeling severe pain because he tried to move earli
There is an assassin organization named “The Red Jade Organizations” We are Orphans trained to become assassins as kids and we are taught to kill the weakest amongst us to become stronger.The leader of our Organization is called “Godmother” A woman in her 70s who always goes around in a mask. Nobody knows what she looks like or her actual appearance we just know she is an old woman.Some years ago Sister Savvana was given a mission to enter the Sinclair family. Her mission is simple. “Kill the first son of the Sinclairs and return back!” I was still a small girl then but I adore her so much because she is the only Superiors that spare us a glance the rest are just animals. I begged her not to go for the mission because according to God mother if she was caught the reward was death. But she insists saying she needed to take revenge on you so she went for the mission bravely.She didn't tell me the full details of how you started dating but she told me she got you through your brother
Dave quickly ran after her and grabbed her hands. “What the hell is wrong with you!? " he yelled.Ophelia! She just went in that direction. She is the one I need to catch up with. Dave, please let me go. Milana Shouted at the top of her lungs, tears forcing their way out of her eyes.I know you are concerned about your Sister Milana! But Ophelia is not here, She will probably be at home by now let’s leave this place first. Dave asserted with a faint smile.Milana looked around and saw everyone glaring at them, feeling embarrassed she used Dave's body to cover herself while she bit on her lower lips regretfully.It's okay! Ophelia will be fine. Dave assured patting her on the back continuously.“What are you all glaring at!?” You've never seen a lady that cries before?? Georgina sneered at the people looking at Milana and they all stopped glaring walk away.Crazy people she cursed again as she dragged Milana's luggage along with her, She walked away leaving both Dave and Milana all alo
He knew she was angry about the pregnancy but it wasn't something that worth meeting his father for. Moreover, Celine already lost the pregnancy so she has nothing to fear.“What did you mean!?” He asked acting confused.There is something I need to ask your father and it's urgent. So I need to see him first.Anything You want to ask him can wait, we just have to return and make sure you rest properly before visiting the mansion. He said as still dragged her closer for a hug.Ophelia pushed him away again and shouted, it can't be Rome! It can't! It has to be today. I need to ask him everything today she shouted as tears well up in her eyes. She wanted to hide it before but she can't again. She needs to let go of Rome and the whole of Sinclairs even if it will only bring her endless pain and regret.It's okay! But you don't need to cry, If you want to see Father I can take you to him right now So you don't need to cry. Rome said and quickly reached for her face to clean her tears but a
Rome carried Celine in his hands as he left the scene hurriedly he didn't even turn back or take a look at Ophelia.Ophelia wanted to rush after him but She instantly stopped in her tracks remembering what Celine told her. She covered her face with her palms and increased her tears again.She felt a light touch on her shoulders and slowly raised her head, She was surprised Rome came back for her despite the dire situation but was shocked by the person she saw when she uncovered her face.“I understand your feelings!” You are the reason we are all here but it feels like everyone is leaving you behind. It's okay, but we need to leave here now before it becomes even more dangerous. Adrain assured with a huge smile.Ophelia was just looking at him like a fool, Not because she didn't understand his word but by the way he was assuring her and even Patting her on the shoulders. Someone who was threatening her not to be too happy is now Stylishly mocking her. She slowly looked around, and tha
“Who exactly are you!?” Milana asked finally turning to face Georgina who has been holding her hand affectionately ever since they left Sicily. Her mind had been clouded with Ophelia’s whereabouts that she didn't even reply Georgina ever since she as been talking to her and Couldn't take a look at Dave because of anger. But she couldn't help but get curious about the secrets Gorgina is hiding after all it involves Ophelia now.“It doesn't matter” What matters the most is how to save Sister Ophelia right now. Georgina replied avoiding Milana’s eyes.At this rate we might all end up dead if you don't open your mouth, Ophelia is already kidnapped and who might be their next target now?? “We don't know!” That's why we need to catch them before they threaten us. Milana asserted angrily.And that's why am returning home. Only Uncle Rome could understand what I was going to say so please just bear with me and wait till we get back home. Sister Ophelia will surely be found. Georgina explained
Just within a twinkle of an eye they arrived at the airport at once since it was still early they quickly boarded the earliest flight and with that, they quickly checked in and said goodbye to Sicily. Dave was just looking at the whole scenario in confusion. Various thoughts ran through his mind. What he would tell Rome when they got back and How everyone would feel If they knew Ophelia was missing. He prayed it was all a dream and that he could wake up from it Immediately.The duo took a seat beside each other while he was forced to sit at the back far away from them.Georgina turned to Milana and locked their hands with a smile. “Nothing will happen to Sister Ophelia, Okay!” She assured with a smiling face.Milana nodded back in understanding trying to hold up her tears. All she could think of was how to get home and find Ophelia.********************Ophelia and Celine are still running non-stop in the tunnel. They just increased their pace before they could notice they were missi
Ophelia!!! Ophelia!!! Celine yelled as she rushed inside the room Ophelia was in. She was just about to dip a spoonful in her mouth when Celine pushed her and the spoon slipped from her hand and fell. “I thought If I didn't eat this I would be penalized!” Ophelia declared raising her head to look at Celine.Celine was already sweating profusely in fear that Ophelia might die. She is already regretting why she didn't call Rome. Without saying a word broke down in tears and engaged Ophelia in a deep affectionate hug.Ophelia looked at her in amazement she didn't hug her back nor did she ask her the reason she was hugging her. “You could have been dead just now!” Am glad you've not touched the food Celine finally let out still in tears.That's when the whole scenario became understandable to Ophelia turns out the maid already knew the food was poisoned that's why she kept on scaring her.Celine suddenly broke free from the hug and grabbed her hand let’s go she said dragging her up. “To w
No!!! “This can't be true!” How can my father borrow such a heafty sum for Rome’s family with all his details? What the hell did he want in return for him to go to such lengths… I can never believe this gibberish “You must be kidding me!” Celine this can never be real!! Ophelia screamed in tears, tossing the files in her hand away.Yeah! You will never believe that even though there are thousands of clues for you to confirm it's real. The reason why they amputated your father was because he was owning them and they did not pester your family for the money even after his death. “Do you think it's luck!?” Absolutely Not!!. It was because Henry Sinclair settled the bill.Your father was so hell-bent on getting revenge for you and he asked “Orson Sinclair” Rome’s grandfather for help. The Sinclair needed to settle some bills at that time because they were on the verge of breaking down also they couldn't lower their self-esteem to borrow some money from their business partners because of t
Ophelia stirred awake in shock, all her surroundings were dark and she could only see a ray of light because of the moon that was penetrating the room telling her it was night time.She was so confused, she wasn't quite sure maybe it was still the same day or it was another day. She didn't have an idea of how long she had been here.She knocked herself angrily. She regretted trusting Celine once again, She felt so stupid for even thinking for once that Celine could actually change her ways. Her desperate best friend who always tries to be the best no matter the situation.“Am sorry Rome!” I should have listened to you. I shouldn't have trusted that bastard. She whispered in regret. She was lost in her thoughts for a while. Celine was pregnant with Rome's child how shocked would Rome be if he found out? She wondered still crawling to the side on her knees.Finally resting her back on a wall she buried her head in between her legs. “I hope I can just escape this hell” She murmured as un
