Rissa clutched Caleb tightly in her grasp, not letting go; she kept weeping in agony, leaving Adrian no choice but to watch the scenario unfold as he helplessly stood there. Caleb yawned lazily and was startled by his mother's tears. He hugged her lovingly basking in her warmth.This was it, Diane Donaldson’s last straw, how dare she threaten his child! He gently patted Rissa's shoulder and helped Caleb's nanny to her feet; Martha's face was pale as if she had actually seen a ghost. She had prayed silently in her heart for a peaceful landing when she had the gun pointed at her skull.What average nanny gets to find herself on the bad side of gangsters? The three bodyguards woke up looking really tired, they straightened up out of embarrassment the moment they saw the murderous look on Adrian Grey's face.“What did you have in common, probably consume?” he questioned suspiciously with a slightly raised voice. The tallest of the trio kept fidgeting; he had suggested they order some gri

*Flashback*Diane's eyes searched her environment; the hostile look on the man’s face had confirmed her fear; his corpse had been discovered. Now she was going to be killed.She didn't dare try to escape; that would be unwise and cowardice; if she was going to be dead, it had to be with her chin up high; she had escaped death too many times to be intimidated now.Mr Smith’s keen eyes scanned hers as the other men kept whispering in a foreign language; she bit her lips in frustration; were they plotting to avenge him now? “Was it you?” Mr Smith said to her and she nodded in affirmation.He let out a frustrated sigh “We wouldn't be getting out of here alive; that is what they are discussing; fortunately, I am multilingual.”Two strong men came out of the room with the general’s corpse on their sturdy shoulders. Diane's eyes widened, he was already looking pale as if his blood had been drained. Mr Smith put his hand by his side, and Diane knew he was ready for the worst that was to come

*Flashback*The little girl blinked rapidly at the strange man in their house, she had noticed her mother panicking but ignored it and continued fiddling with her doll. The man smiled at her, a cold smile that eluded his eyes. Despite her mother's hostility towards the stranger, Diane smiled back warmly.“Don't you dare touch my daughter! I told him I would live quietly without disrupting his plan”.Her mother shouted angrily; she looked around, but the area was too deserted to have passersby; she had left Los Angeles for the countryside to hide her pregnancy, which she stubbornly refused to terminate; her whole life was doomed the day she decided to become a mistress to the well-known devil—--Mr. Denver.“You did a terrible job at being quiet,” Mr. Smith shot back.“It wasn't my fault that his wife found me; I swear, I have no intention of blackmailing him,” she responded dejectedly, shaking with fright.Mr Smith took a long look at her and also the child; he felt no remorse whatsoev

“Mum, we are building a sandman”.Caleb's enthusiasm melted Rissa's troubled heart, she sat in the far end of the beach house dressed in a sexy teal green bikini and a slightly draped kimono. They had put off the beach visit for too long, fearing attacks; their lives had been at a standstill for too long, and unwinding turned out to be the best idea.She looked over at the all-powerful CEO of Perchy Peach packing some earth with his bare hands; he looked too happy doing it that Rissa scoffed inwardly; his authoritative aura had been replaced with a childlike look; she was glad they had taken Mrs Robinson’s weird advice.With one look at the peacefulness of the ocean, Rissa wished she had such a life, but unfortunately, hers was filled with too many dramatic encounters and dangerous turns that she barely remembers what it felt like to be at total ease.She kept on glancing at their phones that had laid helpless on the floor, Adrian had come up with the idea that they switch off their p

Rissa pouted angrily. Was this all a sick joke to him? Three years of commitment and all she got was a casual proposal! She was about to turn him down bluntly and state a thousand reasons why she thought he was inconsiderate when Adrian's phone rang.He had to excuse himself to pick up the call and Rissa sat there sulking like a rejected teenager. Liam Hickson, in the past, had made her a grand proposal that melted many hearts, including the envious Diane Donaldson. Rissa ruffled her hair, she didn't want to think about it.The comparison of both men wasn't healthy; she knew that Adrian might be an inconsiderate jerk sometimes, but she was certain of his true affection for her. Her phone chimed, and Camela’s video call request came through; she picked it up, and it turned out to be a conference call.“Hi Rissa”, Camela and Mandy chorused “Let me guess, you are in Mr Grey’s office; the background is…. exquisite”, Mandy taunted, and they all laughed.Rissa blushed sheepishly; she had a
