Trapped Chapter 61 - Secrets revealed
Aiden "The boy was sent away to live with his aunt," grandpa said softly. "To Ukraine." At these revelations, I locked my gaze on Grandpa. "I received a call from your father at the accident scene. He was hysterical. Of course, I called the cops. The youngster was rushed to the hospital, but he quickly fell into a coma. I looked for his relatives and discovered Paul's sister, Lucia Ponomarenko, who was married to a Ukrainian. I asked her to visit the United States in the hopes that she would accept custody of the boy. I informed her of the situation. She was a devout Christian who felt bad about her brother's actions in the embezzlement . She insisted on taking the boy back to Ukraine," he paused again. "I arranged for him to be treated at the best hospital, with the best doctors and specialists. I also paid a monthly payment of $250,000 to cover the boy's medical bills and costs. She expressed her gratitude and informed me that she had founded a clothing business in honour of her
Trapped Chapter 62 - The buildup
Sydney I put on my goggles and tied my blue scarf around my head before looking in the mirror. I looked ridiculous! Why was I dressing myself to resemble some mafia mole, who was out to deliver some illegal stuff? As though the disguise was going to work, I removed my scarf and glasses. It was just money that I was 'legally' receiving from the bank and lending to a friend who, ideally, would use it for something 'legitimate'. Right ? I snapped my purse shut and grabbed a big carry bag for the cash. Half a million dollars would require a big bag, right? I drove to the Bank of America and offered my check to the cashier. He looked at me, then at the check. His eyes widened with surprise. "Mrs Reiner! Please take a seat, the manager will be here soon." "Manager....but why?" I could barely finish the sentence before a tall middle-aged man in a suit arrived. He greeted me and asked me to wait in his office while they prepared the cash. I nodded and followed him. I was offered coffee an
Trapped Chapter 63 - Pieces of puzzle
Sydney "Can't you explain why you need the money, Mike? The very least you could do is tell me of your situation?" I explained, hoping to persuade Mike. I had brought the money to his house. He dodged my queries as usual. "I am sorry, Syd. I swear, if you give me a few days, I'll tell you. Please don't say anything to anybody in the meantime... Leah included." He begged. "I'm not going to tell anyone, but I hope you're aware of what you're doing. I am always willing to help you in any way I can," I stated. "Sydney, I appreciate your help; you are a lifesaver. I hope you didn't have any issues because of this." He glanced at the bag. "No, it was simpler than I had anticipated. Just then, I bumped into Will at the bank. Wonder what he was doing there...." Mike's face had become as white as a sheet. "Will? William Reiner ? Did he see you at the bank? Did he....did he ask anything?" Mike anxiously stood up. I frowned, "no, I brushed him off and even if he saw me withdrawing the mon
Trapped Chapter 64 - The misunderstanding
Sydney What a crazy day! Those were my first thoughts when I entered the manor. Hopefully, the worse was behind me. I had no idea how wrong I was.I'd showered and changed into some comfy payjamas while waiting for Aiden. I was standing on the terrace, taking in the fresh air, when I heard soft, almost silent footsteps behind me, and two large male hands clamped tightly around my shoulders. I smiled as his musky aroma hit my senses. I tried to turn around but found myself held forcefully rooted on the spot, gazing out into the darkness below. "It's always been a fantasy of mine to take you like this, out here, before the world?" Aiden said, his body gradually nestling me into the cradle of his arms. "I never would have thought of you as an exhibitionist," I managed to respond. He answered softly, "Oh it's not that. It's more of a statement of ownership - a declaration to the world that you're mine...” "You don't have to prove it; I'm yours," I replied. I could almost sense him gri
Trapped Chapter 65 - Taken
Sydney - His cheekbones throbbed with rage, and he was not about to let me walk away. “ I have to know. Was my love insufficient? I should despise you, yet I can't get rid of my desire for you. If my memory serves me well, you were rather fond of my touch, weren't you moaning my name when I last fucked you?" he brutally remarked. I was furious with him because he had hurt her. All this time, he has been toying with me. He never loved or trusted me. "You are right. I was moaning your name but you know who I was thinking of? It was Mike. I was thinking about his body......" I blurted out in anger without caring about the consequences of my words. "SHUT UP! Just SHUT UP!" He shouted. He had me backed up against the stone wall with two swift steps, his right hand pinning my hands over my head. "What -" he cut me off. His mouth settled over mine as he ripped and plundered my mouth. I fought him like a wildcat, scratching, punching, and kicking him. I yelled, "LET ME GO!" "Did you
Trapped Chapter 66 - Mike's dilemma
Mike sighed with relief as he pulled into the airport parking lot. Until now, everything had gone smoothly. All he needed to do now was wait for Rob. William Reiner was waiting outside Rob's office some miles away in his automobile. He cursed Eric inside for making him do all the dirty job. But he didn't have a choice at the moment. A cab pulled up in front of the structure. Rob was still on the job. Rob reappeared after a while, holding a bag. He got into the cab that had been waiting for him. Following the cab, William arrived at the airport. When the cab arrived in front of the departure gate, William stepped out and strolled up to Rob casually. Rob's expression was absolutely priceless. Will grinned and pointed his gun at Rob's back. "If you want to see your wife and kids alive, just come with me." Will spoke threateningly into Rob's ear. Rob began to break out in a cold sweat. He did not object and groaned despondently. They returned to Will's car on foot. Will pulled Rob into
Trapped Chapter 67 - Something about the past
Aiden I had no idea how long I remained sitting on the floor. I was running my hands through my hair and repeating everything in my head. I had too much to mull over, but no thought formed in my mind. I could grab nothing solid. It was like all that awaited me was a vast black nothingness. As if a cosmic vacuum was sucking on my soul. I knew in my heart that Sydney wasn't lying. Mike had probably manipulated her. Never in my life had I ever forced a woman to bed and now not only had I hurt Sydney, but I also had made things worse. She would never trust me again. I sprang up and hurried over to our bedroom. I half expected the room to be deserted, but there she was, lying on the bed. I approached her and took a seat beside her. Her eyes were closed and her face was concealed beneath her arm. Her respiration was shallow, but her lungs continued to take in air. Her heartbeat thumped against the side of her neck, which I could see. "Syd," I struggled to find the right words. "I am sorr
Trapped Chapter 68 - The dirty past
Fiona Thomas Malcolm Reiner was a highly sought-after bachelor in those times. Like all Reiner men, he was gorgeous and charming. True, his wealth added to his allure, but I didn't marry him for his money; I married him because I loved him. At least, that's what a part of me thought. I was young and ignorant when I found out I was expecting a child. In contrast to popular belief. Thomas was the one who insisted on getting married. I wanted to end my pregnancy and pursue a career as an actress. He persuaded me to marry him and take up the name Mrs Reiner. Even if his father, the senior Reiner, was against it. It wasn't until later that I realised Thomas was a spoiled brat. He was a drug addict and a playboy who dabbled in all forms of immorality. He also had affairs with the wives of some of his executives. Paul Munoz, his right-hand man, had a lovely wife named Angela. I had suspected Thomas was having an affair with her for a long time. Thomas and I had quarreled that night. I char
