ALEXA“Are you sure about what you are saying?” The detective asked Oscar. “You do know that if this turns out to be a lie, you would be in a more terrible situation. You don’t just go about mentioning names, especially the likes of Mark Ronaldo, who is a man of repute in this city,” he informed Oscar deeply.“I understand the consequences of what I just did, and I am not lying. He came to me and presented me with an offer that I couldn’t resist,” Oscar insisted.“Do you have any evidence…maybe a recorded conversation, or even a check that he must have given you as payment for the done deal?” The detective asked.“No, unfortunately, I don’t,” Oscar answered. “He made sure that I didn’t record anything, and we met at a private place. Then he assured me that if everything went well, he would pay me in cash, but it didn’t, so I don’t have anything to show as evidence, but it is true,” Oscar narrated.Tears gathered in my eyes, and as soon as I blinked, they spilled down my cheeks.I bega

IVY The scar from the injury incurred at Oscar’s apartment was taking its precious time to heal, and I knew that I should continue hiding in the house to prevent nosy gossips from carrying the news, but with what I read about Alexa being attacked and Oscar being arrested, I just couldn’t continue staying holed up.I had been isolated for days, but not once did Mark think to call or even ask about me.I was scared and worried that he had moved on without me, especially with the stunt I pulled at his house, but my mum kept assuring me that after the conversation she had with him, he would not think of calling off our engagement.I was also bothered about Oscar not even bothering to reach out, especially being that he was the reason I was in this condition in the first place, but that was not before news of him breaking into Alexa’s apartment and assaulting her circulated the internet.“Now I know why you haven’t been thinking about me,” I said to myself painfully as I got dressed.It w

IVY“You need to leave, ma’am,” the cop told me.Oscar had been dragged roughly back to the cell, and it hurt me deeply that I could do nothing to stop or help him. In that moment, I wished that I had some sort of power to get him out of this situation. I was scared of leaving, because I had no idea when I would be able to see him again.What did he mean by it was already too late?“Why did you drag him away like that?” I asked defensively, standing up for Oscar. “He didn’t do anything wrong!” I added.“I would leave if I were you,” he said, ignoring my outburst, and as though it was an afterthought, he whispered warningly to me, “And you should never tell anyone that you were here.”Shivers ran down my spine at the tone and words that he used.“Why not?” I asked curiously.Not that I would have announced to the world that I came to see Oscar, because he was nothing but my secret lover, but I still wanted to know why I was being warned in that dreadful and fearful manner.“Two powerfu

MARKMy ears had to either be playing tricks on me, or the cops had suddenly taken to playing silly pranks.“Excuse me?” I expressed in shock.“What is going on here?” Mr. Devon asked protectively.He was acting as though he was my dad who saw the need to protect me, and it warmed my heart that he would stand up for me, but there was a more serious situation on ground, so I couldn’t even dwell on that.“It is just an invitation,” the first cop said calmly.It doesn’t stop it from being beneath my status and reputation. Worse, coming to my company to arrest me, who happened to be the owner and CEO of the company.How pathetic and embarrassing could that be?My annoyance grew.“Why am I being invited to the station regarding Alexa’s attack?” I asked them.Alexa was here just a few hours ago, so I didn’t quite understand what was going on. Her last question was if I went to the station to see Oscar, and she had left without even giving me the chance to explain what I went there for.Did

MARKDonald and I waited for Alexa to make her decision and my heart thundered hard against my chest.A big part of me told me that she would insist that he stayed right here; she came with him after all, didn’t he? And that would also make Donald more pompous than he was already feeling.Then I couldn’t deny that another reason I was agitated was how embarrassing this would be for me. Donald would definitely have a filled day sneering at me and taunting me for being chosen to stay, but I was a Ronaldo, and the last thing I would let anyone do to me was strip me of the use of my power and influence.I meant what I told the detective, and if Alexa decides that this meeting wouldn’t hold if Donald wasn’t right here with her, then I would have to use all my pulling strings and fight this till the very end. It wasn’t something I wanted to do, because I didn’t want to drag Alexa down that road, not because I was worried about the outcome, but then again, with Donald, it would always be war
