"It's not okay!"
Sean sighed and reclined on his chair wiping his brow for the tenth time today as perspiration ran down his forehead.
The air conditioner was working perfectly but the lady before him was a hindrance to the damn air conditioner.
"It's not okay, Mr. Durango," she cried again, "You don't know what it feels like to be cheated on."
He sighed again and wiped off the sheen of perspiration that had formed on his forehead. He swallowed the bile that had risen in his throat.
"I don't," he mumbled.
She nodded. "Good, then let me cry in peace and don't tell me it's okay."
"I did it!"Dario chuckled deeply as he stared at the excited face of Natalie screaming at the top of her lungs. She was standing on her own without the support of the clutches after trying for almost a month.Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Trish stepping out of the house her eyes filled with admiration as she stared at Natalie."Guess all your training finally paid off," Trish smiled at her.Natalie nodded but didn't jump the way she wanted. Her ankles were still sore but they could lead her around for a while before she would have to rest them.She had no intention of exhausting her energy on jumping with joy no matter how refreshing that thought felt."It did, Trish. I'm so happy I can finally go get my brother," Natalie replied smiling brightly.This was the first genuine smile she was wearing in weeks. The thought of what could have possibly happened to
Sean dabbed at his eyes as the couples left, his mind doing ten to twenty flip-flops while he thought of all the things that were wrong with what they did so he wouldn't be tempted to grab Brenda and haul her off to have a romantic evening.Suddenly, his right hand began to twitch and shake. He sighed and grabbed his suitcase suddenly remembering it was in his drawer.He worked faster using his left hand to grab open the drawer thereby spilling its contents on the ground, the drawer crashing to the ground.His door flew open instantly and he sighed. Claire sure knew how to make an unexpected appearance."Claire," he began."Here sir, what do you need?" She was at his side immediately bending to pack up the drawer contents."Let it be, girl," he chuckled waving her off.Claire gave him a puzzled look but nodded then said immediately.
There a loud crash as his office door was brought down by so much force and his security trooped in all heavily armed pointing their guns at the two miscreant who thinks they can beat him at his one game."Surrender and drop your weapons," They said in a thunderous voice.Sean moaned in pain while Claire ran to his side immediately."I'm so sorry, Sir," she apologized.He shook his head. "It's not your fault these two are murderers.""Call an ambulance!" Claire yelled orders."Call the police also I have the recording where he confessed to killing Alaric Rodrigo," Sean announced smugly.Amidst their protest and curses, they were dragged out of his office while he was ushered into an ambulance. The bullet had barely grazed his skin so he will heal in time.He would not be defeated by these two rats who knew nothi
Natalie's head was spinning as she tried to understand everything that was going on. Her father had saved Noah when there were people out to kill him all because of her.Maybe he wasn't so bad any longer because of him, her brother hadn't died on the streets or in the hands of Jared and Xavier.Her thoughts drifted back to her mom's motionless body and how she had returned to the house to see if her father had come to save them but still nothing.He said he was kidnapped, a tiny voice piqued in her mind.She sighed. She had no proof that what he had said was true and yet she wanted to believe him, she wanted to cling desperately to that hope that he wasn't so bad after all."I will be the father you've always wanted, Natalie I'm so sorry," he was saying.Her heart broke for him. This was the first time he was speaking to her in a broken voice, he was on the v
Lisa paced up and down in the sitting room shouting orders at the scurrying maids while her children—Ava and Daniel for Noah-weren't back yet—sat down on the sofa all dressed up.She was with her phone and kept dialing the number displayed on her screen repeatedly cursing in low tones as to while the call wasn't being answered.She glanced at the beautiful silver clock hanging on the mantelpiece and sighed. She will have to go herself."Be good kids, alright. I'll just be back in a second," she told them and they nodded.She grabbed her car keys and headed towards the familiar road driving at full speed while glancing at her clock. She was having a hard time believing that he wouldn't pick her calls today or all day.
Sean pulled up in his house his face marred with a slight frown. He had no idea why Anne and Joe had decided to come to his house today of all days.Why did Natalie also decide to resurface today they were all ruining his plans. His wife hurriedly got out with Noah and Natalie followed suit.Muttering profanities under his breath he got out of the car, his wife oblivious to his dilemma. He needed to act cool so there won't be any suspicions."Hurry up, Noah needs to get prepared," Lisa hollered snapping him out of his thoughts.Sean hurried towards the house a lot of things weighing on his mind. He needed to talk to Natalie privately so she wouldn't ruin his life but he got no such chance for the moment he stepped into the house, Lisa ushered them to have a nice bath and change their dresses.He kept bidding his time after having his shower but the doorbell rang and he rushed to
Dario strode into the hotel room his sister hot on his trail. His mind was reeling with thoughts at what he had seen back at Natalie's father's office."Wait up, Dario!" His sister exclaimed. He stopped so abruptly she bumped into him almost losing her balance.He steadied her and glanced at her worriedly."Is there a problem, Carino?" He asked.Trish huffed angrily glaring at him."What is wrong with you, Dario?"He furrowed his brows at her. "I don't understand your question, Carino.""Trish!" She screamed in his face, "It's Trish, Dario. For the last time, let go!"A slight frown still marred his features. "What am I l
Natalie only wanted to go and ask him the questions to his face. Why he had hurt and betrayed her the way he did. She wanted nothing more to do with him.But seeing his face radiating with happiness and the way he had called her name like she was the only one meant for him she almost lost her thoughts of revenge.Almost.Because staring at him now still reminded her of her mother lying in a pool of her blood, pregnant all because of him."Natalie?" He called again."Noah, take a walk with Chloe," she ordered.Noah nodded and eagerly bounded into the compound with joy Chloe on his heels.
