“800,000 US dollars upfront, with a monthly allowance and full access to my resources on anything you desire. Then at the end of the two-year contract, I will make sure we part our various ways with an exquisite settlement enough for you to live a comfortable and decent life.”

He paused. It seems he doesn't want to understand me. That I'm not interested in what he called a contract marriage! I think he is offering all this out of desperation to snatch Martha away from me.

And what if, after offering all this mouthwatering present, Martha turned out not to be his daughter? What happens? Is he actually putting all this into consideration? Or what he is after is to get me first?

I think I know what to tell him.

“Sir, I've heard all you said. And I appreciate them. Thank you for your interest. But give me time to look into everything you've said. Whatever my final decision, I will let you know.”

I muttered. With this my response, I hope he will see a reason to leave without being disapp

  • The Wrong Revenge    Chapter 47

    At the Edifice of Donal.Donal POV.The radiation of the sun was growing faint.And the sun was gradually losing its intensity. I drove in with my Lamborghini so exhausted from my two-day trip I just hope Sofia has prepared something delicious for me. I won't tolerate her usual behavior. She is fully aware I will be returning back today.I stepped out of the car after packing it at the car lot. I walked into the room.As I walked through the parlor, I felt a sense of excitement, hoping to see Martha running towards me. But the entire building fell silent. "Sofia,” I shouted. My voice echoed through the entire building without a response. My heart skipped.I decided to call Martha as I moved towards Sofia's bedroom, yet there was no answer.I opened the door of her room; I found Lizzy and Martha deep asleep.I went to my room and took off my clothes and put on casual wear.I quickly returned back to the parlor, went outside, and checked. I also went behind the building. No sign of h

    At the Edifice of Donal.Sofia POV."You look worried,” Lizzy poured.With a face etched with concern."I'm fine,” I responded tenderly. But deep down I'm not. The way Donal has been treating me is really giving me concern. So rude. I'm afraid one day he might pound on me.We all sat in the parlor glancing through the television show. I've this faint belief Donal will be returning back from the so-called meeting that always keeps him away from home.I think in a few hours’ time I will rush to the market to get some condiments that I will use to prepare a fresh meal for him. I don't really want his usual shouting and complaining. I will make sure I prepare a fresh meal for him. Before he returns.“Do you know I'm still in shock, Sofia?” Lizzy asked curiously.“Shock? On what exactly?” I cut in immediately. Staring at her in the face. “That Donal is actually the biological father of Martha!” She poured out. Her eyes blinked. “Now you know, so can you let me rest?” I asked. My eyes n

    Lizzy and Anthony. At the corner.Lizzy's POV“Anthony, this is not the agreement we had.” I raged but in a lower tone. “I see you as someone capable of executing this job. Which is why I opened my body freely for you. In exchange. Now it is a different outcome altogether. You failed in delivering the job after all the assurances you gave me.” I poured out. Hurt and disappointment were plastered across my face.“What really happened?” I asked. “I can't really tell.” Anthony responded.“You can't really tell? How? But you told me you can handle the job. Why are you trying to change it now?” I asked again.“My colleague James and I did a fantastic job. But…”“But what?” I hollered. Still in a low voice. “Any excuses given at this point are irrelevant. Because Martha is back and alive.” I raged. The shock was still in me. I never knew Martha was even the daughter of Donal. Sofia hid it completely from me. This is to tell how wicked Sofia could be. But will always pretend to be nice a

    Sofia POV I'm happy after the doctor's examination on Martha. He found nothing. She was never hurt or tortured. The doctor prescribed some drugs that she would take. For her total well-being. And energy recovery. For he said that she was subjected to stress.The shock of how she was kidnapped still lingers in my brain. How was she taken out of the room, and by whom? Such remains an unavoidable question that my mind still battles with. It's strange. Let me keep calm for security personnel to carry out their lawful job. This is not the time for me to start suspecting anyone. Or lay accusations on what I cannot provide evidence for. I leave everything with the police to do their investigation. And I do hope the perpetrators will be apprehended soon.Donal has been arranging some of his clothes in the briefcase. I hope he is not planning to travel out as usual. Leaving me here all alone. Such solitude is no longer healthy for me. Being here all alone is undeniably the same as being in

  • The Wrong Revenge    Chapter 43

    Staying inside the room without a trace of the whereabouts of Martha seems like hell to me altogether. I'm just restless and frustrated.I couldn't sit at a spot. Lizzy walked in and sat at the edge of the bed. Without saying a word. I was prancing around. Sweat running down my neck. Like someone on roadwork.Thoughts were running through my mind.At a point I started asking myself questions upon questions. Which I never got an accurate answer to. Accepting this contract marriage seems like a mistake. I have been with Martha for years, and I didn't experience such. But just barely 3 months ago I moved in here; look at the situation I found myself in.My heartbeat is beating harder each second than the last. “Sofia, are you aware that I'm still totally lost in the whole situation going on?” Lizzy broke the silent silence in the room.I had wanted to ignore her, but then she is not the cause of my problem.“You don’t have to be lost.” I cut in. “Like I stated earlier. Here on this bed

    The entire building fell silent. That one could dictate the sound of any ant that walked across. Donal's eyes scanned through the face of his security guard when he arrived. "Anthony,” he called out. “Go at once and search the entire estate and bring Martha to me.” He commanded.“Okay, sir.” Anthony responded.“Make sure you alert James to join you at once,” Donal added.“I will do that, sir.” Anthony responded. Then he turned and left. Donal now turns his eyes back on me.“How was she able to leave the house without your knowledge?” He asked angrily.“This is somewhat peculiar to me.” I responded. My heartbeat threatens to burst. I wasn't myself anymore. How can my daughter just disappear like that?“Peculiar?” He asked. Raising his eyebrows.I never said anything again. I just pray nothing happened to my daughter. That is the only thought running through my mind.About 30 minutes later. Anthony and James returned back with a report. My eyes were fixed on them to hear what they have
