What Stand To Take

MARK

“But you know that I am innocent, Mr. Devon,” I insisted.

My heart was pounding now. If the one man that was supposed to defend me already thought that I actually did what I was being accused of, that meant that I was in deeper trouble.

I could afford any lawyer in the whole world if I needed to, because money had never been a problem for me, but then again, it would raise more suspicions.

People would wonder why Mr. Devon wasn’t representing me when they all knew that he had been the company and family lawyer for decades. The last thing I wanted now was to escalate this more than it already was. I just wanted this nightmare to be over so that I could get back to my life.

I made a vow right there and then inside of me that after this was over, I would never have anything to do with Alexa for as long as I lived.

Donald Shell wanted her, he could have her.

She might be the only woman who could arouse me now, but that was because I wasn’t fully well. Doctor Jones already said that s

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   To Take The Fall

    MARK“Who are you?” The detective asked Vector.I was still stunned into speechlessness as I looked at Vector. What the fuck was he doing?“I am Vector, Mark’s friend,” Vector responded.“And he is lying!” Ivy yelled at the top of her voice.Clara’s eyes became filled with tears as she looked at her daughter with regret, and the tears didn’t waste time in flowing down her cheeks.“Ivy…” she called her daughter in disbelief, but Ivy paid no attention to her mother.Mr. Silver stood by, watching all that was going on in shock, and Mr. Devon was utterly confused, but it was better to have him confused than ruin things for me.The fear of going through this scandal or even worse, rotting in jail, and my entire life getting destroyed in the process pushed me into denying Ivy’s allegations, because all of a sudden, I just wasn’t confident in Mr. Devon’s stand as my lawyer.Or maybe it all still had to do with how I was feeling right now.Meanwhile, Vector’s action was what threw me off the

    MARK“Can someone tell me what is going on?” I asked, still looking around.I felt lost and confused; as though I had walked into an ambush. Mr. Silver was there along with Ivy’s mum, and worse, Ivy had this weird look on her face that made me uncomfortable. I hadn’t set eyes on her since the last time she came to my house with a threat, so I couldn’t understand what they were all doing at the station.Clara got up immediately. She had a frantic look on her face as she looked from me to Ivy and the detective, then back at me again.“How did you know we were here?” She asked me.It was quite confusing for a moment, because I didn’t know that they would be at the station, but before I could open my mouth, she hurried over to me and grabbed my hands pleadingly.“Mark, I am so sorry about this. I know that this is enough to make you feel humiliated and call off the engagement, but I assure you I am going to resolve this and get Ivy back to her senses,” she said urgently.“I…” I started t

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   What The Actions Say

    MARK“Who saw me?” I asked Mr. Devon on our way to the station for the umpteenth time since his last statement but he couldn’t give me a direct response.My heart was beating rapidly; this was becoming more complicated than I anticipated.If someone truly saw me run out of his apartment, they would think that I was responsible in murdering Oscar, and it would be very difficult, almost impossible to prove my innocence.“Fuck, what have I gotten myself into?” I asked myself deep inside.All my life, I never had a police record. I was a good citizen who always abided by the rules and went about my business. There had never been any criminal offenses labeled against me, but since Alexa came into my life, or since I allowed her to walk away, it changed.Was she this vengeful that she would pin a murder on me? A part of me was already thinking that Alexa was the one who wanted to make a confession against me, although how she could have seen me leaving Oscar’s apartment when she was far ou

  • Till Divorce Do Us Part   Justice For Him

    IVY“This wasn’t the plan!” Clara yelled.From the corner of my eyes, I could see her veins popping out of her head; an indication that she was livid.I had taken her by surprise, I knew that, but that was my own plan from the moment she opened her mouth and slandered Oscar while showering undeserved praises to Mark Ronaldo. I was hurt and heartbroken, and I wanted nothing to do with this initially, but I just couldn’t.The entire night, I had felt guilty for not telling the cops what I saw.Oscar didn’t deserve that. Granted, he wasn’t a perfect lover, but I loved him, and when he was in trouble, I was the only person that he could call. He wanted me to help him. He wanted me to save him, but I was too late. Then another opportunity had come for me to fight for him one last time and she wanted to take it away from me. Mark Ronaldo might be the perfect choice, but everyone also needed to know what a monster he was. Everyone needed to know what he did. “You are going to ruin everythi
