Her heart dropped as he said those words she tried to consider all she had done that would have led to this, and although she was unsettled she was even more eager for Ben to pick up the phone and then he finally did.His brows creased into a frown and Aliyah's skin crawled with fear as his eyes flicked back at her in obvious disdain. "I've decided that rather than making Aliyah come around every day, Cecile would come over instead and stay there for a while."Ben's brows creased into a frown, he had not been okay about leaving Aliyah around his Grandfather and sister, but now his sister, whom he wants on the best of terms with, was coming over to stay here, they would butt heads day in and day out. and as much as he could handle things he didn't like the hassle it would cause. he immediately opened up."I'm not sure she'd want that and I don't think that's a good idea," Ben stated in disapproval—growing furious at something Aliyah knew nothing of but was curious about."Well, she a

*****Chloe walked graciously through the hallway heading for her room, she halted abruptly when she caught sight of someone sitting on the couch, a young, refined-looking man who was too focused on his phone to look back at her."I didn't know you'd be coming back this early today," she stated as she stepped into the living room.The young man raised his head from his phone to the direction where the voice came from. A subtle smile graced his lips, accentuating his well-defined jawline. His hair color, similar to Chloe's honey blonde was brushed neatly falling by the sides. "Yeah, I wrapped off my work early and I decided to take the rest of the day off," Simon muttered as he slipped his phone into the pocket of his pants."Are you not being carefree and unserious with your work?" Chloe crossed her arms across her chest as she heard his question."Who's gonna say anything, the company is still afloat only because Dad helped them, so I can do whatever I want," She kept walking until s

The tranquil silence in the room was suddenly interrupted when a scream was heard from outside. Aliyah's eyes were jolted wide open and she was about to dash out to go check what was happening but Ben got up before her. He reached for the door handle and stormed out in a flash like his life depended on it, the swiftness with which he dashed off the bed and out the door made Aliyah even more terrified than the scream, as she stood up.He seemed to know exactly where the scream came from, Aliyah also recognized the high-pitched voice and from the direction Ben went she surmised that it was Cecile's voice."What in the world is going on?" she muttered to herself, her voice heavy from exhaustion.Although she felt heavily sleepy and her eyes were still groggy, she dragged herself out of the comfort of her bed and followed behind him—wondering what on earth had caused this abrupt and scathing interruption of her sleep. By the time she reached the corridor, Ben wasn't there anymore

Ben's car came to a slow stop when he arrived at a bar, with a slight tuck he pulled off his tie, feeling suffocated. His fingers brushed across the button of his white long-sleeved shirt and he tapped off two buttons before stepping out and closing the door shut. His eyes flickered around the surroundings for the briefest moment before he tucked his hand into his pocket and walked into the high-end bar which was bustling with music to the ears. As soon as he stepped in and his presence was noticed, everyone stepped away for him as he made his way into the bar. A young lady bumped into him mistakenly—his first instinct push her aside but rather, he stepped back and a deep frown marred his face. Immediately she noticed what she had done, she stared wide-eyed at him and apologized. "I'm so sorry, so sorry. It was a mistake," she muttered, while staggering, probably from drinking too much alcohol, she seemed disheveled and her eyes were puffy from crying. Ben nodded, "Move." Sh

"Thanks for your cooperation Mr. Carlo, you made the right choice, I'll have the money delivered to you immediately." He uttered in a dry voice.His words drew no reaction from Ben.Aliyah sat on the floor dejected and betrayed, but then again it wasn't much of a betrayal if he just kept her around to punish her—she might have mentioned regretting having him as her bidder, but in reality, she wasn't that regretful, she preferred him, because at the end of the day, the devil you know is better than the devil you don't. And she knew Ben, although not completely.The man in front of her stepped closer, and lowered himself to her eye level, "How long I've waited for this day." He grinned and a cold shiver ran through her spine, she wanted to return with Ben but he didn't seem interested in doing that, "We meet again Aliyah, now you are mine to play with."His face contorted into a devilish grimace and she could sense all the dirty thoughts in his mind, fear crawled on her skin like an end
