I strolled into the Thompson's Empire the next morning with a heavy heart. After receiving a call from Michael to meet him at the office, I couldn't help wondering what could be wrong?
I smiled immediately I remember the prank I pulled on my bodyguards this morning, Gosh! I'm so clever…
“Good morning Miss Miller. I'm Aurora, I will escort you to Mr Thompson's office” I came out of my thoughts to see a young girl speaking to me.
I was skeptical while trying to remember where I probably would have met her. My brain has been fussy after the accident, I have problem remembering some things.
“I'm sorry, Aurora but do I know you?” I asked her as I watch her slowly.
“Sure, Miss Miller. I'm Mr Thompson's personal assistant” Aurora replied causing me to nod my head at her. I clenched my fists together as I brush past her.
I suddenly remembered Michael telling me that he had slept with her before. Gosh! I can't believe the nerve of that man. Did
I pulled the car into my parent's driveway and shut the engine. I don't know why I'm suddenly having this feeling of coming to see them but my conscience wouldn't let me be even though they are only my adopted parents.I rested my head on the steering, my mind flashed back to what happened earlier this week. I knew I shouldn't try to hurt Nina again. I'm reluctant to do that but Deborah won't be happy, I need to please her, she's the woman I love and the mother of my boy .The sound of my phone ringing pulled me from my trance as I picked it up from the dashboard. A quick glance at the caller's ID caused me to quickly pick it up.“Hello. Xavier, what's going on ?” I asked him cause I wasn't expecting any of his calls. My eyes scan the front porch of my parent's house, memories of my sister running down the porch flooded my brain as I forced it away. I miss Mia so much.....“ Doctor Pierre just called me. He said a lady came to asked information about you at t
I marched into Lush Beauty after sending my bodyguards off. I was glad my dad accepted for me to come after spending an hour promising him that I won't talk to Michael..“Good morning Miss Miller, how's your health?” One of the sales ladies greeted me with a smile on her face.I couldn't help smiling back as I took the elevator to Andrea's office where I know everyone will be waiting for me…Lexa immediately stood up to greet me as soon as she saw me approaching. A big smile was plastered on her face“ Hi! Miss Miller. Nice to see that you are getting better”“Thank you Lexa. You are not looking bad yourself too” I replied as she knocked on Andrea's office. She motioned me to go in after we heard a response from Andrea..I walked into Andrea's office and stopped short. I was disappointed that Michael was not here. Rather it was Darcy who was seated with a document opened in front of her and a big smile on her face.“Come have a seat Nina, we were j
There was a distinct chatter of voices closer to me. I couldn't quite catch what they were saying or who they were?...I struggled to stand but noticed that my hands were tied by a strong robe that could only be used for animals. I struggle to free my hands from it but it was effortless.My throat was dried, I wanted to scream for whoever they were to come take me out of here but no words were coming outI squinted my eyes in the darkness while trying to see if there was anything that I could use to know where I was but nothing as the room was blank save for a black drum at the far corner of the room..“Is she awake?” A man groaned out the words. He moved closer to me, I couldn't make out his features in the darkened room but I was confident that I'd never met him before.My eyes intently seek out the necklace on my neck, I relax as soon as I see it glowing at my chest. It was the only light for me in this darkened place. I hope Michael found me in time
I strolled down the hallway into my office. After the signing event yesterday, I couldn't wait to drop Nina off because Vino had called to tell me that he and Victor were around. I'm so happy that my brothers are at my side.“Good morning, Mr. Thompson” Aurora greeted me with a smile on her face.I smiled back at her as I strolled down to her table and greeted since I was in a good mood this morning“ How are you, Aurora? Hope there's no problem?”Aurora raised her eyebrows at me, shocked, it had been a while since I'd stopped at her office to chat with her“ I'm fine sir. There's no problem” She replied.I acknowledged her answer with a nod and turned to open the door into my office. I walked straight to my chair and sat down while eyeing Andrea with a bored look.I wonder what he was doing in my office so early in the morning. And he looked unkempt. I continue staring at him with my back to the chair and my hands folded across my chest.“Are
I strolled down the hallway annoyance visible on my face. What is Michael planning? Why will he involve the police?.Aurora greeted me as I stepped into the elevator but I ignored her. I need to go see Austin and warn him about the police. Why can't Michael be in love with me? Why does he always choose the hard way which is Nina?This is all her fault. I need to tell Austin to finish her off before the police find out about us. I stepped out of the elevator and walked down the stairs to the parking lot where my white Formatic Classic Benz was parked.I got into it and pulled out of the Thompson's Empire with one thought on my mind, how to make Nina pay?The sound of my phone ringing pulled me out of my thoughts as I turned to switch on my earphones. With the earphone fully placed in my ear I answer the call.“Deborah! Where are you?” My dad's scared voice called out to me from the other line. I guess he had heard the news of Nina's kidnapping and had fi
“ No, Austin please don't listen to her, she is lying to you” I screamed at him whose face was already darkening and his eyes were bloodshot red in anger.I sat afraid on my seat as my hands immediately went to the necklace on my neck. I fumble discreetly for the switch, I didn't know this thing had to be switched on. It's no wonder Michael couldn't find me.“ Deborah can never lie to me, she's the woman I love ” Austin screamed, his voice echoing through the empty room.I scrambled from fear, as I felt lonely in the tiny room. No one was on my side, everyone was with Deborah as she couldn't stop smiling that coy smile. Why is she doing this to me? I thought we were once friends.There was once a time, I would have done anything for her “ Austin please believe me. I was there for you when you needed me remember when you told me you were gay” I told him pleading with him.I saw his eyes soften a fraction more. I had never had any experience w
“ No, you are lying and you know what I do to people who lie, prepare yourself cause I'm coming back and when I do, I will make sure to satisfy my last fantasy with you” I told Nina clearly before storming off the tiny room I had kept her in.My blood was boiling with anticipation, as I prepared myself for what I had to do with her next. I walked up the stairs and took the stairs up to the second floor where I use as my office and living area.I stepped into the room, with Xavier following closely behind me “ Do you think what Nina said is true?” Xavier asked me as I turned to look at him. He was standing at the door with his hands resting on the door.“ What kind of question is that?” I asked him, turning to sit down on the dirty couch ac
I was in my office going through Nina's pictures which Andrea had given me earlier. She was smiling and looked so beautiful in that orange dress that I was thankful that I had bought for her even though it cost a million dollars.John and Don were going through the feeds on the couch, after Don had missed Deborah, the other day, we were only left with a Miracle from both Nina and the taxi driver who took her to Michael.I came out of my reverie just in time to hear the alarm sounding through the feed. I shot out of my chair and rushed to where John and Don was.“ What is that?” I asked him straining my eyes to see what was making that sound on the laptop. John ignored me as he continued typing furiously on the laptop with a smile on his face.
