Chapter: Chapter 59"Hi," Molly said, chewing on her lower lip nervously.Sophia looked at her very best friend. The only person who always tells her the truth even if it's going to cost their relationship. That one friend who has remained faithful and loyal to her since they were kids.Others had said she was like that because of the money and the fact that Sophia seemed like a canopy of protection to her, but Sophia knows that Molly wouldn't always get on her nerves by telling her what to do and what not to do even when she knows how much she hates to hear it if that was her reason.She knows that Molly values their friendship more than anything else, and she doesn't ever get offended no matter how she treats her, but hates her being rude to others much more than to her.Molly is the only person who her parents had approved of their friendship because her mother knows she's a good influence on her and she's as bright as her in terms of study and smartness.She never forgot this friend even when she was

Chapter: Chapter 58"There's no progress even after putting the two of them on the same bed? Doctor, you know better, I hope there's nothing fatal about her injury?" Fred queried the doctor worriedly.How can someone who woke up almost the same day she was admitted into the hospital not stir since then? He had thought taking Justin to her ward would help and he even told the nurse to put the guy beside her on her bed.For the past three months, he has been very busy dealing with the culprit, Mr. Smith. The government has laid claim on the sluts hotel to set up children's hospital and an orphanage home.Mrs Charlotte Smith was found guiltless, and so, was released and she has been frequenting the hospital to spend time with her son. Fred noticed she cared for Sophia as well.All the assassins have told their stories in court and were granted pardon, all were sent to the rehabilitation center for a three months program before they can be sent to any force they choose to join.Mr Smith was sentenced to life

Chapter: Chapter 57The cops ransacked the Assassinators camp and arrested everyone remaining in the camp including Stella and Gena who were locked up.Xena stared sadly at the amazing foundation Mrs Smith was able to raise on her own, for the good of the society, she bathed her hands with blood and spent a whole lot of money, time and energy.There's an advantage and disadvantage to everything… And one of the advantages of the organization to her was giving her home and hope when she least expected it and needed it the most.She doesn't know if she could tag a disadvantage of the organization to her own part because there's nothing she regrets about joining them.And working under Mrs Smith with loyalty still intact as of today even when she doesn't know where or how it is going to end soon is the best thing she has done and the people she has spent months with are her only family and she will cherish the memories for the rest of her life.Skyler sat down at the backseat of the police car with two cops

Chapter: Chapter 56"Arrest them too!" Fred pointed at Mr. Smith and Flying dragon. "Make sure they don't escape, they can be cunny!" He advised and rushed to Sophia.The navy men untied Mr Smith and Flying dragon and handcuffed them as they took them away. Two soldiers came in and untied Justin and Alex. "I think this guy is still alive!" One of the soldiers said, checking Justin's pulse.Fred carried Sophia and ordered the soldiers to bring Justin too to his car because he's impatient about waiting for the ambulance."Take the woman and the other three people with you to the police station for questioning!" Fred commanded as he entered his car and sped off.Alex's corpse was carried away along with Celina's corpse which was found in one of the rooms. They found Cynthia who was under the care of a nurse and took her to the hospital while Mrs. Smith and the others were taken to the station as ordered.Fred didn't know his phone was ringing because of how agitated and perplexed he was at that moment as

Chapter: Chapter 55"You are free to ask me anything. You are an adult too, being nineteen is not a joke and you will soon be done with your final exams and walk your way to college.""Oh, stop! There's still a month and two weeks more before I turn nineteen. You are right though, I feel sad that Sophia won't be with us during this final exams. She bragged so much about the things she would do at college, now she's not here." Mrs. Bryan shook her head sadly and hugged her daughter passionately. "She was such a darling even when she was arrogant to the outside world. I remember the first time I met her, it was…""Unpleasant!" Molly completed for her, laughing. "It was so for me too, and she isn't someone who easily says sorry, but behind that raised chin and fearless eyes is a weak girl struggling to get away from her haunting demons.""Yep! It's a pity she… I hate to talk about what happened to that poor girl. I wonder where she is and if she's doing well. Less I forget, you wanted to ask me something.

Chapter: Chapter 54Mr. Smith woke up and looked around his environment in surprise. When the face of Flying dragon registered in his eyes, he sat up immediately and looked curiously at him."Thank goodness you are awake! I was afraid I wouldn't be able to keep my promise to you. How do you feel now sir?!!" He asked his boss worriedly."How did you bring me here? Where's Charlotte and Justin? She must be shocked to see you bring me here without notice. Anyway, you have done well, this is the only place in the whole world where I am safe now." Mr. Smith shook his head."Well, she was, but I think she got a call from someone and it seems Justin is in the hands of whoever the person was, so she left after telling me what to do. I feel they are dangerous but I know your safety is most important now." Flying dragon replied."Justin is in danger? If that's true, we need to go out there and look for them. I can't let anything happen to that boy, he's the only prize I have got in all these years." He said, forci

Chapter: Chapter 81: Sinister Beam VERA'S POV If desperation was a person, it would be me as I came down from Jack's car, holding out my hands in front of me and careful not to miss a step and trip over. The fact that he had insisted on blindfolding and bringing me to God knows wherever he was taking me–claiming it was a surprise–sounded so cliche, but I couldn't stop my heart from fluttering in anticipation.It has been three months since our surreal kiss in the garden. The feeling that Monica was still alive–a. k. a. Monica had probably deceived us, or the man was trying to raise a false alarm, play with our emotions, and make money off Jack. Whatever it was–hung heavily over us. Malone's unacceptability still lingered; it hurt more to watch him become more of Kenneth than who I hoped he could become. Our fear of my capability to carry a child for nine months and birth without complications also made us restless. I sometimes find myself wallowing in self-doubt and trying to pretend I could do it since I had done i

Chapter: Chapter 80JACKSON'S POV It was already late afternoon as I waited in my car at the park. I watched the figure walking toward my direction from the side mirror. The way he dressed and walked spoke volumes of someone who does dirty jobs for people for the money, the kind of man hired to go on deadly missions and trusted to do clean jobs without any trace back to his client.I have had my share of such men, but I work closely with only one private security company and have only used the company's cyber security and men. Though I do question their loyalty sometimes, that's what fuels my need to trust such people by risking it all or going through government agencies. And every businessman who has dangerous rivals knows which system always fails.I pressed a button beside the wheel to unlock the car doors for him to ease in. He looked around sharply before he folded himself into the passenger seat and lifted his black cap. He's dressed up in black from his cap to his shoes. With his long dark hair

Chapter: Chapter 79WRITER'S POV Vera couldn't tell who trembled more, Hannah or herself, as she guided her into the house, and they sat on a leather-made bench in the kitchen. She had never seen her friend's house in disarray, no matter how determined her kids were at breaking, disarranging, and making a mess of things.Somehow, Hannah managed to be a good mother as she was a good wife who loved keeping everything tidy and in order. If the kids made a mess ten times, she cleaned it up twenty times without complaining about the stress but rather scolded them to be careful and not hurt themselves. What had gone wrong?When her sobs subsided, Vera heaved a sigh, and they both at the same time released each other. Their foreheads still pressed together, they looked at their hands and laughed at the realization that they were both shaking immensely. Vera's heart relaxed as their moods became lighter, her friend was still there, right behind her pain.Fifteen minutes later, they both sank into the couch in t

Chapter: Chapter 78. The VowsVERA'S POV I decided to drop by Hannah's house before heading to the hospital, but after I tried her phone too many times and she didn't answer, I had to go to the hospital first.She had never sounded so frantic before, and it chilled me to the bone that I couldn't contain the nauseous feeling as a form of reaction to my bewilderment.It was the first time Hannah and Oscar got in a fight. My favorite inspirational lovey-dovey couple fighting? It couldn't have been serious, but then, she wouldn't joke about such a thing!I called Dr Halmes office next and was certain that he was waiting for me before I made up my mind. I told Max to stay back and look after the boys, Timothy and Malone since Jack drove himself out and I didn't need a driver. My children meant more to me than my protection which Jack would have insisted upon, probably turned whiney, to make sure I allowed the driver to take me to wherever I wished to go.

Chapter: Chapter 77. A Son, A DaddyJACKSON’S POVI rose to retrieve my phone from my pocket, partially relieved as I suddenly felt gawky in front of a lad. He is finding it hard to adapt and I wished that he would understand how much he was hurting his mother by acting in that manner. As I swiped my thumb across my phone's screen and saw the text that came in, I turned to look at Vera. There was no point reminding her that I still had to leave the house and not follow our plan for the day, so I told her that we would talk when I came back. Even though I had made up my mind to walk through the door and not stay for breakfast, her sickly face made my legs stay rooted to the floor.“You don't look well.” I reluctantly brushed strands of her hair off her face and tucked it behind her ear.“I'm going to be fine.” She turned away from me and went to the kitchen counter where canned juices waited.To say that she was going to be fine meant that she wasn't well, so I walked up to her and was about to get her to see the reason

Chapter: Chapter 76. VERA'S POV If I know Jack as much as I think I do the palms of my hands, then I know that he would be distracted and his train of thoughts would be shifted toward finding out if truly there is a Monica out there or not. How could he let himself be easily swayed by a mere random text from a stranger who, I might say, is supposedly looking for ways to fill his pocket after everything we have been through? How did I let myself think that it was over? Just when I thought that we had reached the pinnacle of happiness, a single text message from a strange number that kept calling his phone while we were screaming for release turned our world upside down again! Shattering every hope that I built in my dreams while in his arms! So much for a happy ending! “Yes, this is unbelievable! You're so unbelievable, Jack!” I climbed out of bed and hurriedly threw my robe on. The absurdity of the whole thing gave me a headache. Last night, my heart had flopped in pleasure, and this morning, in pa

Oh! My Sweetheart
"Save me! Archer, take me away from this paradise built in the depth of hell!" Natalie's outburst could only be heard by just one man...
Archer's love was both healing and heartbreaking, but Natalie would rather accept Archer's love than live the rest of her life with Oscar, her husband.
The Georges family has it all, power, wealth and fame. They might not be greatly feared, but they are well respected and adored. Anyone that ever sets foot in the multi-million estate has stepped into paradise. The honest truth is that it is the opposite of what people think and see from the outside.
The only people who can testify is Natalie Hills and Archer Georges. How would they let people know the truth? These two childhood sweethearts with wounded Hearts explored the estate, creating the sweetest memories as they did the craziest things together while looking for an escape path and a way to let the world see the Georges for what they truly are...!
In a twist of fate, Natalie shoot's Oscar, and they all were on the run believing that he died from the gunshot. Archer becomes a billionare overnight... Then the story began.

Chapter: Chapter 33When Natalie found out that Oscar is not into women, she had hoped there were other ways to end things between them. But he had to force Archer to come back to the family house so that he would humiliate him by shoving the fact that he and Natalie are married down his throat.Now everything has escalated to another war all together. If he must kill, then he just has to end her own life because it's all her fault. Archer wouldn't be suffering if she had stayed away from him. He doesn't deserve any of this!“Oscar, I attempted to kill you. It's all my fault, let me pay for my sins. I know you don't like him, but he's still your brother and remember that…”“Oh, fucking shut up, Natalie!” Oscar retorted, snatching a gun from one of the men on guard. “You mean nothing to me, but seeing Archer like this, I had to spare you until now. Don't you think watching him die, or killing him with your own hands would be very painful?” He flipped the gun in his hands.“It's nice to know that you are s

Chapter: Ch. 32: Who Are You?Natalie felt cold hands on her face, someone was touching her. Just as she opened her eyes, she was blinded by the cold water poured on her face by unknown hands in the darkness.“What is this? How did I get here?” Her voice reverberated in her ears as tears stung the corner of her eyes.“Hello, my lovely wedded wife!” A cocky voice laughed, and that taunted her because she knew who owned the voice.“Oscar?” She called out in shock as he came out from the darkness to where a single bulb shone brightly. She was in the dark as well, which made her wonder how many more people were in the dusty room.“It's been awhile, honey. Did you miss me too much?” He walked up to her and used his finger to send strands of her hair behind. Then he rubbed his thumb on her lips as if he really missed kissing her, only he never kissed her except the one that happened on their wedding day in front of the witnesses. “You're alive? How…” she threw her face away to avoid his touch. He loathed his closeness.

Chapter: Chapter 31: I can't breathe Natalie walked up to the reception to drop off her keys as she had an appointment with the doctor. It isn't about her health issues, but she wants to go out and not stay stuffed like frozen food.She looked at the girl's badge before she called her attention. “Gianna,” she forced a smile at her. “Ma'am, do you need anything? You didn't have to come out here, you could have just pressed a button and I would…”“Hey, calm down and take a breath. I don't need anything else apart from air. I'm not some kind of foodstuff packed up in the fridge or cupboard. I have somewhere to go,” Natalie cut the girl off.“I'm sorry, but I was ordered not to let you leave your hotel room again. I just hope you understand, please.” Gianna walked across the counter to meet her.“I'm also sorry, but I can't take this anymore. Archer gave that order, right? I understand you all care about my safety, but it's more dangerous here.” Natalie placed her keys on the counter and turned toward the entrance of the h

Chapter: Chapter 30: Daring Jezebel In Her Chambers.Archer fixed his spy with a challenging gaze. He already knew from the beginning that Angelika had plans of her own, especially surprising her enemies with Oscar's return, but he did not expect to hear that she locked up his mother together with Natalie's parents and has been torturing them.He stamped his fist on his desk and stood up angrily. He had thought she would get the police involved and he only hoped to bail his mother, Mr and Mrs Hills out of the police custody and take them far away where she would never see them again just like he did Natalie.Now she's getting on his nerves and he's going for plan B. He can't sit back waiting for a perfect time to hit her back while his mother and the Hills' suffer. They don't deserve to be punished for being good people."How many shares are left with the Georges?" He asked, pushing his hands into his pockets."They still have thirty-five percent, we are already ahead of them. We have sixty already, and the remaining one is left with on

Chapter: Chapter 29: Karma Caught Up With The Wrong Person Natalie perched on one of the two-seater couches in the hotel room and wondered about the exclusive five-star hotel that Archer was able to get reservations for her and the McCartneys.She also overhead the receptionist discussion with another hotelier that there's a change of ownership. She's not stupid, and she hopes her suspicions aren't exactly what she's thinking because she trusts Archer would have let her in on everything going on in his life.She knows that he came back after ten years with nothing but a patched faded bag that contained his washed out clothes. He practically came back in rags and they went through a lot as nobodys, but look at her getting nice treatment in an expensive hotel in Manila, which happened because of him.She swayed when she tried to stand up and an unusual pain stabbed her heart. She was able to steady herself, standing strongly on her feet, but the pain didn't go away. That has happened once before, which she had ignored since it was gone just the

Chapter: Ch. 28: A twisted gutThe dining room of the Georges estate grew uncomfortably silent when Angelika walked into the room. She suspected the reason for their sudden quietness, but she sat down, lowered her lashes to cover her eyes as she quietly started eating."What is this about?" She asked coldly when everyone continued stealing glances at her instead of eating."This has really affected you even though you pretend to be alright. Anyway, I was just telling everyone about today's board meeting." Elia spoke up, breaking the tension that hung in the air."What board meeting? I made it clear that no meeting will be held until I say so!" Angelika glared at the older woman."The fact that Oscar is gone shouldn't hold the company back and stop business from moving forward! So many changes are to be made and I have already permitted Julius to take over and continue from where Oscar stopped." Elia filled her in hotly."You must take me for a joke? Does Oscar mean nothing to you? Well, you chose the wrong woman to
