In a world where fairness should reign, injustice often holds sway. It's a place where the innocent suffer, where hard work doesn't always lead to success, and where privilege trumps merit. It's a world that can break hearts, crush dreams, and leave scars that never fully heal. Yet, amidst the darkness, there's still hope – hope for change, for empathy, and for a future where fairness isn't just a distant ideal, but a lived reality for all. But maybe that's not for me. After exchanging the rings I heaved a sigh of relief thinking that could be true, maybe there's truly hope somewhere. " You may now kiss the bride", the priest permitted. Every step he took towards me made me feel nervous, my heart pounding as fast as it could, and slowly he lifted my veil. I could bet I saw a smile for a second but it was immediately replaced with that of disgust on seeing me and he nearly puked. I thought this would be the beginning of dreams and not a nightmare but this would even be my worst nightmare. Wedding days are supposed to be the happiest days right? But that's not the case for me. Who said this world was ever fair? That was a big lie, if it is, to what extent?
View MoreAlice belched and frowned, she was rubbing her stomach weakly as the feeling of nauseousness and fatigue kept settling in. She was worried and, at the same time, assured that the symptoms she had been feeling had no reason to be alarming." It can't be what I'm thinking, right? I haven't had sex for a while now. Ramses and I broke up, and it's been more than half a year since I had sex with Victor, so there's no way it's what I'm thinking", she said assuring herself.She saw Ferdinand rush in just then." Dad? What happened to your face?", she asked upon seeing his bruised face." What's my wife?"," She's in her room", she replied still puzzled about his looks.' he didn't come home last night, and now he showed up looking deranged,' Alice said in her mind as she watched him rush upstairs." Patricia!", he shouted her name before barging into her room." Why is the cheater yelling my name like that?", she glared up at him, " anything I can help you with?"," I know I did something wr
The angry murmurs made Arthur shut his eyes tight in disappointment; his only son had brought him nothing but shame and dragged his name through the mud." Is he not going to show up?", one of the board members asked angrily.Unable to utter an apology statement after they've been waiting for hours. He flipped his eyes open and turned to the Members in the room." Let's proceed with his relegation", he announced.Victor's removal was approached, and with no reason to remain in the room; Arthur stormed out of the room, walked briskly out of the company, went towards his car, and hastily jumped in. With furiosity, he drove to his house and dashed into the sitting room where he met his wife and daughter." Where's your son?", he asked angrily," You came back early today, honey..."," I asked, where is your son?" he yelled angrily, startling and cutting Noely short. She was surprised to see him that angry, and the way he angrily loosened his tie and rolled up his sleeves, she knew he was
Splash!Their bodies jerked violently, waking them from their slumber. The cold water splashed on them, freezing their body; they shivered and looked around in confusion, which was soon accompanied by horror. Jord and Ruby looked at each other to see the same position they were both in; their hands were tied above them, and they were standing on their toes, and the aches from their stretched arms began to set in.Jord looked around the dimly lit room; big enough, there was a table at the edge, and on it were different kinds of tools and knives. His heart leaped with fear, and his eyes quickly looked around until they fell on the man sitting in the middle of the room; his head was bowed, and behind him were two hard-faced looking men in black suits." Who are you?", he yelled but the fear in his voice couldn't be erased," Who are you guys? What are we doing here?", Ruby also asked in fear. She was shivering from the cold water." Let us go right now; my brother is very powerful, so yo
The vehicle to first exit the hacking center parking lot is the expensive Rolls Royce that belongs to Christian, then the different vans started trooping in and out. The system operators were finally able to take a breath of relief.I.T. took the order more seriously, knowing this was the first time Christian was using the underworld team for an issue that didn't relate to the underworld. He was by his side when he watched the footage of an accident, he saw the veins popping out of the skin due to the intensity at which he used to clench his fist and jaw, he ordered the team to search for the current location of the culprit and immediately it was located, he asked him to get the underworld team to go get them.He always knew the Underworld supreme one was a mystery; no one knew outside what he wanted them to know, and every other thing they learned about him is that the man who bestowed the power unto him must have chosen him because he is far more dangerous than a man could comprehen
Arthur stretched behind his desk, looking worn out; he cracked his neck before standing up and reacting out for his coat. He had a stressful day and had been on Zoom meetings for hours; he had just finalized a deal, which brought smiles to his worn-out face.He took his handbag and coat and was about to head out when his assistant rushed in, panting and startling Arthur." What's it? What's wrong?"," We have an issue", he said and handed over the tablet to him, showing him the video of Clarisse's interview. He kept watching till his eyes widened, and his heartbeat started racing; he quickly proceeded to check the comments and saw a lot of people's comments and shares.~ And Victor is the CEO of the corporation, I wonder what sort of company it is~~ He's a despicable person, he's unworthy of being the CEO~~ I bet the company would soon go bankrupt ~Arthur angrily hands over the tablet." That idiot! What has he done again!" he fumed angrily beneath his breath and turned to his assi
Gael briefly parked at a restaurant and brought Alicia and Abigail meals before dropping them off at their respective homes. They were very grateful to him and thanked him a lot when he dropped them off. " Are you going home or to the mansion?", he asked Blue after dropping the women off." The mansion, ma'am might need me, and I need to make sure she's alright"," And you? Are you okay?"," Hm," she nodded, " I'm good, just a little exhausted," she said, smiling.He smiled back and hit the road. They were quiet for some minutes before Gael broke the ice."

" Are you ready?", Anita asked." Yes I am", Clarisse replied and took in a deep breath.After the confirmation, she nodded at the director and the live interview began immediately." Good evening Mrs Clarisse", Anita began with a friendly greeting," Good evening"," How are you doing?"," I'm good"," That's nice to hear, that you're good even with the trending news about you"," I have no reason not to be good"," For real? How about your husband? Is he good?"," No", she shook her head," You're good but your husband isn't good, are you good with the fact he's not good?"," Not at all"," But you said you're good"," Not in that aspect, I'm not good with the fact that my husband is not good if he is then I wouldn't be here"," So you're here because of your husband?"," Yes, because of what was said about him and my mother-in-law, they didn't deserve any of it"," What do you mean? Can you expatiate? Did they make you do this?"," They ain't even aware that I'm doing this, my husb
Patricia was in her room with Ruby, swaying her butt alongside the music playing; her joy seemed to know no bounds, giggling and laughing as the bubbling joy in her kept increasing." Can't imagine dealing with those people would bring you so much joy", Ruby said shooking her head while grinning," Of course darling, putting some people in their place brings you more respect ", She bragged, " and now that they've tasted my pills, they'll know more not to step on my toes, or mess with my family "," I can't even believe they ain't trying to bring down the post or videos"," They can't Ruby, that's like them admitting to it, all they could do is nothing ", she said and chuckled," And this one you're dolling up, are you taking us out to celebrate?", Ruby asked excitedly," Nope, I'm going off to see my partner"," Your partner? Ferdinand?"," No, but I'll be going over to his office as a surprise visit later in the evening; right now, I'm talking about my business partner, "she said, pu
Blue noticed Clarisse's sullenness since she arrived; she looked disturbed and unhappy, pacing to and fro. She wanted to ask her what was wrong but was reluctant; she didn't want to trespass, and neither did she think someone like her would want to confide in a maid.Blue sighed and was about to take her leave after cleaning when Clarisse called her." Blue"," Yes, ma'am"," Can you please spare me a minute?"," Sure, ma'am, anything you want," she said and immediately dropped the napkin, stepping closer to her to give her attention." Blue, there's something on my mind"," What's that ma'am"," Can you be my friend? Even if it's just for this moment? No Ma'am, please".Blue wanted to hesitate, but seeing the need in her eyes, she nodded with a smile." Do you want to confide in me with something?"," Yeah, I want to do something and I also need to admit"," What's that?"," You saw the viral videos right?"," Yes, I did"," It makes me realize somethings, something also happened ear
