RYAN"Beep! Beep!!!!!"The incessant ringing of my phone caused me to twitched my face, half asleep, half awake. Who is the bastard disturbing my rest this early morning? I'm not going to forgive whoever is calling me.With my eyes closed, I trailed my hands to where my phone was kept, picked it up, and put it in my ears."Good morning, boss," Gerald's voice rang in my ear, filled with fear and anxiousness.So it was Gerald that has been disturbing my rest? My nose squished, frustrated and pissed up.Finally, I opened my eyes, and I simply said, "Say whatever you have to say and drop your resignation later before the day ends." I pinched the space between my brows."You have to come to the company as soon as possible, boss. The shareholders are about to hold an impromptu meeting and I don't think it's for your good," He reported swiftly and eagerly, causing my brows to crease and my eyes to widen."What!" I spurted out in disbelief. The shareholders are about to hold a meeting behind

GENERALLexi's gaze was unwavering and determined. She pierced it into Ryan's and deadpanned, "Guess what you did, Mr. Ryan." The gaze was so fierce and intimidating that it made Ryan gulp uncomfortably. He rummaged through his head, struggling to remember what he had done to request Lexi's wrath."Could it be because I claimed Isabelle as...?" His eyes widened when it finally clicked on his head. He returned his stupefied countenance to Lexi, who smirked evilly and nodded."Yes! You dared mention my princess's name with that filthy mouth of yours. And what did you say? She's your child?" Lexi remarked, clasped her lips and burst into laughter. "That must be the funniest joke I have ever heard in my life. I guess you've been misbehaving because you have a lot of time in your hands. You are going to realize that there's more to life than creating nuisance in my company and embarrassing your age around me when you start looking for a job to sustain your family and your lifestyle," she

GENERALThe little girl blinked and took a step backward, her eyes fixed on the strange man's face. Her body trembled as she clutched her fingers on her dress. She gulped hard."I am sorry, sir. I don't want toy again. My mummy will be upset if she doesn't see me," Isabelle fluently let out, her voice shaky.The man's dark lips curled into a sinister smile, sending chills down Isabelle's spine. Looking at the smile, goosebumps surrounded her and gripped her body tightly."You cannot reject my gift, darling. You just need to wait so I can pick up the money in my car. We are already beside the car, aren't we?" He muttered, grinning. With a horror glare, Isabelle shook her head and planned on taking steps backward. However, as soon as she did that, she hit her back against a strong surface, causing her to tilt her head. "Ah!" She gasped in fear when she saw who was behind her. It was a man who had different scars on his face, and his eyes were as red as fire. He had bad intent as he gla

GENERAL"You will be in trouble if you lay your filthy hands on my daughter," Ryan warned, his voice lingering in the air and interrupting the action the man was about to make, causing his hands to hang in the air as he tilted his head in the direction of the voice just to see what was happening.The little Isabelle's eyes widened when she sighted the man from the airport. She heard that he called her his child but never ascribed meaning to it. All she wanted was how to save herself from the dangerous men hovering around her. Just to make the plan go smoothly, she joined in and shouted, "Daddy!" For a few seconds, Ryan was dazed by the name Isabelle called her. Different questions ran through his head. "Does she know that I'm her father? Has Lexi told her already?" He thought. To be honest, he found the name he called her with her tiny little voice satisfying and relaxing. He enjoyed it and wanted more of it. When she was still two, she referred to him as "Dada." Thinking about it no

LEXI I couldn't keep thinking about what happened during the weekend. My daughter was almost kidnapped by some people, who I knew nothing about. I did my best to hide the news from my parents because I wasn't ready for the drama they would perform when they learned about it. Leaving home the next day, I drove straight to the nick and reported the situation to the cops. They promised to look into the matter, and I hoped they did that soon because I failed to imagine what I would do if anything happened to my daughter. I decided to listen to my favorite music as I drove to work. The morning was bright, and the air was fresh. I felt so at peace like never before. However, just as I got to a U-turn and was about to twirl, a car sped past me and swerved, halting in front of me. "Ah!" I shouted as I roughly rammed my foot on the brake. My head hit the steering many times as I eventually stopped my car from bumping into the car in front of me. It took me two minutes to comprehend the s
