Cidnha Mine Novels & Stories

It was a cabin house in the middle of nowhere. Well, not literally. It was a quiet area and one would have to walk a few minutes before seeing another cabin home. Vee wasn't surprised by the beautiful Cabin before her. Brian's family owned a construction company and their mansion was one of the proofs. She was sure this cabin was one of the constructions that belonged either to Brian or his family. She had overheard one of the maids saying that Brian was planning to move out of the mansion soon. His dream home was still under construction and it will soon be ready. Brian Matthews can be annoying as fuck but Vee didn't know how to feel at the thought of him moving out of the mansion.

Natalie’s eyes scanned the room, an uneasiness tickling down her spine. “I completely understand your concern,” Natalie said, staring intently at the man. “And you seemed to have forgotten that Lopes Corporation started right here in Angola. My grandfather and father have never forgotten their roots. This deal will not only prolong the life of the mine by infusing money in the cash strapped company, but the rough diamonds from the mine will be sorted and graded here in Angola at a sorting facility funded by Lopes Corporation. This will produce hundreds of jobs for Angolans. I’m sure you see this as a fantastic deal, not only for you but for your citizens as well.”

she said matter-of-factly. The woman had pretty ocean-blue eyes and blond hair, and like the others, she also carried the rank of Epsilon. Her gaze sharpened as she tilted her head slightly. “That dress. It’s a limited edition. There are only ten in the world. How on earth did you get your hands on it?” Jay scoffed. “Isn’t it obvious, Gina? Chanelle Winters gave it to her. She is our Luna.” “Still,” Gina’s eyes watched me with a coldness I could feel in my bones, “Chanelle wouldn’t just give something like that away recklessly. It’s worth millions of dollars…”

The messages were from his head of security, marked urgent. “Rebecca Chen, RN at Mercy General. Friend of Miss Moreles from nursing school. They had coffee today after her shift.” “Chen’s husband is David Chen, financial advisor at Morrison & Associates. Clean record, no criminal connections.” “However.” The third message made Dario’s blood run cold. “Chen’s employment records show a six-month gap three years ago. Same time period as Carissa’s last known activity in the city. Possible connection.” Dario stared at the screen, his mind racing through possibilities. It could be coincidence. People took career breaks all the time, and not everything connected back to his sister’s schemes.

He groaned but nodded nonetheless, "Yet." " So, why did you call me here? To drink and reminisce. Are you into all that now?" Asher unlocked his phone and passed it over to Christopher, who stared at it like it was infected. "Afgon Textile Company," Christopher arched a brow at the name that sounded awfully familiar, and picked up the phone, "it had affiliations with your company..." "Which of them?" "The Larkin's," Asher said with an eyeroll. "It however went bankrupt 14 years ago after a business deal. Do you have any idea why?"

Her cheeks flushed slightly at that, and for a moment, silence stretched between us, broken only by the low hum of the engines. I picked up the file on the table and slid it toward her. “Go through this. It’s a summary of Knight International—what they own, their subsidiaries, Damien Knight’s preferences when it comes to negotiations.” Maya nodded quickly and reached for the file, flipping it open. I watched her eyes skim the page, her brows pulling together in concentration. “Damien Knight…” she murmured softly, almost to herself. “Ever heard of him?” I asked, curious. She shook her head. “No... But… the name sounds intimidating.”

his lips softly press on my forehead, and my heart skips. "I know." Apart from Ivan, my dad's crazy ex-girlfriend is still out there, and I know she is pretty mad because I killed her daughter. Crazy people like that never think twice before ending your life. "Let's go to work first, and we will discuss that later. Oh! And you have a meeting at exactly 10, boss." "This is going to be so fun," Vin murmurs and quickly rushes to the closet. I am not surprised when he chooses a flared miniskirt and a white shirt.

With her hair perfectly pinned up, a pristine cream Chanel coat (not a single wrinkle), and a face untouched by time, thanks to both flawless genes and extremely expensive Botox, she approached us. I tightened my grip on Papa’s hand and grinned. “Evil ex-mother-in-law incoming,” I muttered under my breath. He cleared his throat to cover a laugh, but I knew he was enjoying this. “Dianna,” Claudia greeted with a smile so thin it could slice paper. “I’m glad you could make it.” I returned the smile like the elegant spawn of hell. “Of course. I'm thrilled to be here.” Her eyes narrowed for a fraction of a second. I caught it.

“Thank you. Hey, why don’t I show you around? After all, you are more than four weeks late. I think it’d help you adjust if you know your surroundings.” “That sounds great.” The two began their walk down the corridor and out the front door. “So, who was that with you?” Choi Li-na asked as they sat at an outside table. “Nathan. Oh, his Korean name is Naiting Dae-Jung He’s my brother’s manager,” Hae Mina replied as she relaxed in the chair. “Naiting Dae-Jung is your brother's manager. So, is your brother the newest member of Nightide?"

she asked, tone knowing. Mirena smiled innocently. “Come on. I’ve got a meeting in a few hours.” “At night?” Ada asked as they started walking. “Virtual call,” Mirena replied smoothly. “The client’s in Hong Kong so the time difference is crazy.” “Is that so?” Ada muttered. She nodded and smoothly changed the topic. “By the way, what do you plan on getting Minho with all the cash you won?” As expected, Ada bit. “I had LV create a custom-made, diamond encrusted chain that…” the rest of her words faded into the background as Mirena's mind drifted back to the moment in the room.
