MasukBishop's POVAs I zoomed into the driveway, I didn't waste a second before bursting into the house, it happened so fast-like a storm. My feet hit the tiled floor hard, making loud echoes down the hallway. I didn't even pause to catch my breath as I climbed the stairs three at a time until I reached Shemika's room.The moment I stepped in, I saw her-curled on the bed, crying softly while the maids flurried around her like worried bees. My heart froze."Shemi... what happened?" I said, breathlessly.All maids suddenly turned toward me, startled, but they seemed glad to see me. "Everyone out, now." I barked, my voice trembling with panic. Without hesitation, the maids bowed their heads and quietly stepped out, shutting the door gently behind them. I turned to Shemika immediately and rushed to her side, dropping to my knees on the floor by her bed.She was wiping her tears, sniffling quietly, still not saying a word."Talk to me, baby... what's wrong?" I asked again, gently brushing str
Lexi's POVIn the photo, Bishop was standing right beside that same man from Gemmy's photo. They looked like close friends but I wasn't sure. Maybe not friends, probably business partners, but I still wasn't sure.Bishop and the man were smiling in the picture and they didn't seem like enemies. They know each other, in fact, they are friends.So if Bishop knows this same man that was standing next to Gemmy in her photo, does that mean Gemmy had something to do with Bishop's friends?I was shocked and confused. I didn't know what to think now. I didn't want to think wrong."No. No way." I thought.Bishop knows about my sister's whereabouts.Without thinking twice, I brought out the first photo from inside my bra and again I started to compare it with the other one in my hand.Two different photos-one was my sister and a strange man which she seemed happy with, and the other photo was carrying Bishop and that same strange man in Gemmy's photo.So what's happening now?Who's that man?Sa
Lexi's POVI sat there frozen, blinking at the door Bishop just ran out through like a storm had possessed his feet. His words echoed in my head again and again."Shemika... something's wrong with her?" The way he screamed her name.I gasped.Shemika?So Shemika was actually alive?After all these while I've been thinking she was dead.So why the hell was Bishop hiding her. What is it that he doesn't want anybody to know?Why is he keeping Shemika away from the club and the penthouse? Perhaps, something has gone wrong and he's trying to keep it a secret from the outside world."So she's alive? She's actually alive?" I thought, but the voice in my head was louder than a whisper and I hated how it made my head bang.I looked around the office like the walls could explain what the hell was going on.Where has she been all this time? Why has no one seen her?"Why is Bishop keeping her away?""Why did he rush out like that?" "Did something happen to her now?""Is she hurt? Did someone find
Bishop's POVI was in my office, staring blankly at the wall, puffing smoke into the air like it could somehow clear the mess in my head. My whiskey glass was half full, or half empty. I didn't know anymore. I just needed a damn minute to breathe.The whole thing was getting out of hand.This anonymous blogger-whoever the hell it was-was two steps ahead of me, and Baby? She wasn't the one. Not even close.I've just punished an innocent person.The real blogger is still on the loose and Baby was busy suffering in the basement for a goddamn crime she didn't commit.How did I know it's not Baby who's behind the blog? Because the real blogger just made a post a few hours ago further proofing that it's not Baby who's behind it.Baby was in the basement when the post was made, clearly, I don't need to be told that she isn't the one behind it.After thinking it thoroughly through and I was certain it wasn't Baby, I immediately called out to Dom who's standing just outside my office door. "D
Lexi's POVI went home that day satisfied. No-deliriously satisfied. Come on, how does it feel to see the same person who once bullied you suffer for a crime they didn't commit.Of course, I framed Baby and I feel really good about it. They've done worse to me anyway.There was a strange peace in my chest. A sweet, venom-laced joy that wrapped around my bones like silk. Baby finally got what she deserved. That bitch! After everything she and her little gang did to me the first day I stepped into this penthouse... walking me around naked, mocking me, laughing like hyenas while I drowned in shame. I swore I'd get them back at them. I swore.And tonight, that promise became real.I stepped out of the cab, smirking, my fingers cold but my soul on fire. The guards outside the penthouse nodded at me as I walked past them like I owned the whole damn building. Maybe I did. In a different kind of way though.I got to my room, slammed the door shut, and locked it tight."This is just the begi
Bishop's POVThe moment Lexi stepped out of my office, I didn't waste a second.I reached for my phone, dialed Dom.Dom picked the call immediately and I didn't even wait to hear him breath through the phone before I laid my command, "Get Baby for me," I said, my voice sharp, low, cold. "Now." I added smoothly."Yes Boss," he answered immediately.I ended the call and stared at my office wall, eyes narrowed, jaw tight.Lexi had just handed me gold.The recording kept playing in my head, Baby's cocky, venom-laced words, her mockery of Shemika, the club, and even me. If she wasn't the one behind the goddamn blog, then she knew something. And either way... she had to talk.Within a few minutes, there was a knock at the door.I was certain it was Dom."Come in." I said coldly and the door creaked open and Dom stepped in first. Behind him was Baby.Her heels tapped nervously on the tiles as she stepped inside, her eyes darting around like a frightened mouse in a trap.I didn't say anything
