“Remember when I first saw you.” John’s mouth twisted. “You sat beside the gas fireplace while I studied your perfect features. At that time, I couldn’t blame Matt for cheating on his wife.” He sighed, looking at Stella’s hand as he traced imaginary circles across them. “I ended up falling in love with you and I made you cheat on him in return. I know I’m such a coward, but what else could I have done to control my feelings for you?”Stella stared at him in silence, before he left the swimming pool and sat beside her. “I know you have nothing to say, Stella. Believe me, you will have many things to talk about after I earn your heart.”

Nancy walked inside the living room with a cup of tea. “Here!” She handed it to Matt. “I’m not in the mood to drink anything.” Matt said, not moving his eyes from the laptop. “The tea will calm your nerves and help you focus more…You didn’t eat anything at all. Please Matt, drink this.” Nancy insisted and he finally looked up at her, taking the cup in his hands. “So, did you find something interesting?” Nancy averted her gaze towards the laptop’s screen.

The stars were nonexistent in that cloudy night which rolled in covering the last of the twilight sky. Moments later, the grey clouds blanketed the sky, hiding the full moon which fought to shine through them. “It’s been hours since we are looking for them. Let’s go back tomorrow, Matt.” Nancy raised her head to the dark sky.“I should find her, Nancy. I can’t sleep, knowing she is somewhere in the middle of the ocean.” Irritated, Matt slammed his hand against the closest surface. “Matt.” Nancy approached, staring at him with a dismayed look on her face. “I’m as worried as you are, but now the chances to find them are low. Look at around you.” She pointed at the dark ocean.

“Fuck this!” Matt cursed. “He is forcing her to talk.” He shoved the phone back in his pocket. He walked back and forth, starting to lose his patience. The security agent ran back to Matt and Nancy. “Here you go. You take this yacht.” He led them, as the rain got heavier. “I’ll never let go of her. Never ever!” Nancy heard Matt repeating to himself. She placed her hand on his arm, giving him a warm smile. “You will have her between your hands soon.”

The maid swung the door open. “Is mom home?” Nancy asked as she rushed inside with Ian. “In the living room, miss.”Ian burst into tears when he saw his grandparents. He jumped into Addison’s arms, sobbing against her chest. “Why are you crying, little man?”Addison stroked his hair, before she looked up at Nancy.“John kidnapped Stella.” Nancy informed. “My dear daughter.&rd

Stella walked up to Matt. She rolled his wheeling chair to her direction and sat on his desk. He smirked, watching her body moves which never knew the meaning of hesitation. “Call her to your office!” She ordered. Above all, her soft voice added more attraction to her dangerous looks.“Okay, boss.” Matt grabbed the phone, placing one hand on Stella’s bare thigh. “Diana! Call Pamela to my office.” He put the phone back to its place, throwing his back against the will and winking at his wife with a serious face.Seconds later, Pamela appeared in the room with her usual high heels.
