A DANGEROUS AFFAIR CHAPTER 30
30.The press had already caught wind of Veronica's take over of Sterling Industries. They stormed the company's HQ with their equipment geared.As soon as James stepped out of the building, the reporters rushed forward with their cameras and surrounded him. His personal bodyguards tried to restrain them from getting close to their boss.The look on his face was terrifying but the reporters were not deterred. They received an anonymous tip and came here in search of news that would make the headlines. Hence, they did not stop following him until he got into his car."Even annoying reporters pester me now!" Infuriated, James picked up his phone and called his son.Gregory was in a good mood. After his conversation with Rhian Stanton last night, he had been elated.They made a plan together on how to take down Veronica and he couldn't wait to execute it. He was going to get a drink at the bar when his phone rang."Dad?" His tone was not welcoming. He was still angry at his father and th

31.Strutting elegantly in her stilettos, exuding an unhurried vibe, Veronica walked into the coffee shop. The meeting with Rhian Stanton was private. She did not bring her assistant with her.Evie did not want to stay at the company while her boss was out meeting Rhian Stanton."Ma'am, that could be a trap. Let me come with you," she had said. But her boss assured her that she'd be alright."I know that this could be a trap," Veronica still had her suspicions. "But I've promised the first lady. So I have to go.""Besides, I don't think Rhian would do anything to me when everyone's aware of our meeting… I'll look after myself and I'll be careful."When Rhian saw her approaching, she stood up. "Miss. Morgan, hi."Veronica gave her a small smile. She sat down and dropped her purse on the table. Rhian recognized the private custom Louis Vuitton design. The price tag was valued close to nine digits.She had seen it some months ago and wanted it but was told it was already ordered by anoth

32.It was very cold, goosebumps appeared on her skin. Veronica shifted. The effects of the drug were wearing off. Moving her head, she grunted and tried her best to open her eyes.'Where is this place?' Darkness engulfed her surrounding. She couldn't make the shape of anything through her blurred vision.However, the material her body was resting on was very soft. Like a mattress. Veronica forced herself up and tried to stand up but she was suddenly pulled back."What the…" Sounds of chains clinking met her ears when she jerked her hands. They were chained to the bed's frames.Chained to the bed in this cold dark room with no source of light was triggering a panic attack. Veronica broke out in cold sweat as her heart started pounding.Shaking uncontrollably, she jerked harder at the chains. Her eyes blinked rapidly as she tried to gain any form of vision.Just then, the sound of heavy footsteps approaching caught her ears. Immediately, her body stiffened.Because she couldn't see, he

33.'Run all you want, I'll catch you, vixen!''Worthless brat, you're only good for pleasure!''Hahaha, I'm coming to get you.''You'll always be weak, surrender!'Horrifying voices replayed in her head. They haunted her ever since she was a child and surfaced when she found herself in a similar situation, threatened and endangered.Veronica closed her eyes. Her whole body was sore, motionless on the bed, at the mercy of Gregory Sterling.'Is this the end for me?' Slowly lifting her heavy eyelids, her blurred gaze landed on the blinking camera.Whatever Greg was doing to her was being recorded on the camera. This was sexual assault but a few editings would change the whole story once he released the tape.Many females were developing abuse kinks, Greg could easily lie to the media and tell them she loved aphrodisiacs and violence. After all, she was a vicious woman.She had publicly expressed her dislike for him and his family many times in the past. The world would despise her and c

34.An IV line ran into Veronica's veins. The private ward was eerily silent. Standing beside the hospital bed, the doctor looked at the examination report."We found an overdose of analeptics and traces of aphrodisiacs in her system. Those drugs are very harmful to the body. It's a good thing you brought her to the hospital immediately else she would have been in a worse state."Ethan looked down at the unconscious woman. Her bruised face looked serene and gentle as she slept which was a mercy after everything she must have suffered tonight.The nurses had cleaned her wounds and bandaged them. According to the doctor, she sustained so many injuries."From the lesions and wounds on her body, you can tell the patient suffered physical abuse. The other injuries were caused by her violent struggles to break out of the shackles," the doctor said."However, her heart rate and blood pressure are normal now. We've flushed the drugs from her system but her body lost so much fluids. The nurse

35.Heavy silence hung in the atmosphere. It took some time to digest the meaning of Ethan's question. As soon as it registered, Greg broke out in rage."You dare to threaten me? Are you crazy? Ethan Reynolds, you're a bastard! I will sue you for this nonsense you're doing!" He yelled. In truth, he was only acting this way because he was very scared. Therefore, he was fierce and tried to disguise his fear.After seeing the horrific tools in Ethan's case, beads of sweat lined his forehead. His eyes were overly bright and damp, glancing quickly from the suitcase to Ethan."You're a psychopath! Harassing me like this… I swear you'll pay for this! The media, the cops, everyone would know of this!"It was too noisy. Not paying heed to the raving lunatic chained to the wall, Ethan tapped on his earpiece. Almost immediately, the guards came back into the room."Take that man down and bring him over there," He ordered. There was a brief moment of silence as the meaning of his order settled.

36.Veronica's brows scrunched up suddenly and her lashes trembled, her face contorting into a dreadful expression of fear.She was having a nightmare. In her dream, she was back in the storehouse pinned under a huge faceless man. He ravaged her while she struggled violently and screamed for help. "Do not resist me, princess," he said in a coaxing tone, flashing an evil smile. "You cannot do anything when Dante let me have you." And his unruly laughter rumbled in the dark room."Get away!" She yelled but he let out a loud laugh and instantly, his face morphed into familar features. The sudden transformation made her face even paler.Showing a wide grin, Gregory Sterling pressed her wrists to the bed."You are mine, Veronica. I'll have you all to myself," he laughed and buried his head in the crook of her neck, sniffing, kissing and biting."No! Let me go!"The people in the ward were attracted by the low mumble they heard. When they turned around, they saw Veronica's mouth moving and

37.Veronica cursed when the foot she placed on the roof's parapet almost slipped off. After regaining balance, she raised the second leg, biting her lower lip as she climbed up.After wobbling a bit, she stood firmly on the wall and smiled at her success.Beneath her, trees and buildings streched out. The magnificent view, fresh air and golden sun rays were perfect. She spread her arms wide and inhaled deeply. Suddenly, a strong grip closed on her waist and she was pulled down.Her nose caught whiff of a familiar cologne that made her senses dull. Strange tingles shot through her body, making her tremble slightly. She did not need to look back to see who hauled her down.Galvanized back to reality, she kicked wildly in the air, exasperated and flustered. "Hey! Maniac, put me down!"Ignoring her tantrums, the man walked further away from the parapet. Realizing he had no plans of putting her down, she twisted her neck and bit down into the flesh of his shoulder."The fuck, woman!" Etha

Ethan's phone began to ring aloud. He opened his eyes from a short sleep. “Who is calling?” He thought in his head. He checked it and he saw it was an unknown number.“It could be my investigator!” He thought in his head and immediately, he picked up the call.“Hello!” He said, expecting the recipient to start speaking.“Hello, Mr Ethan. I have all the evidence that Mr Morgan was the person that killed his wife!” He said to him.Ethan was excited, because that was good news. “Where should I meet you to get the evidence?” He asked him.He sighed. “Sir! Meet me at Grace broadcasting station,” he said to him.Ethan was taken aback by his words. “Why that place?” He asked him.“I do not have much time to explain things. There is a change of plan and to make Mr Morgan pay that is the only way we can do it. He is too connected to be reported to the police,” he said to him.“Okay! I understand you.”He ended the call right away.Ethan sat down in dismay. He was in thoughts as to what to do

“Damn!” Trish expressed his in-depth stress.“Sir! Won't you mind going home now?” He asked him.Trish took a look at him. “You are right. I was wondering if I could finish with this, but I am very much exhausted. I need to get going,” he said to him.“That would be better for your well-being,” he said.Trish widened his eyes. He left his company in the evening and he entered the car. Driving through the arduous distance, he got home. He stepped down from his car and walked to his apartment. He checked his pocket to bring out his keys but he couldn't find it.“Where is my key? Did I forget it at work?” He started panicking.While he was in the middle of this, he heard a loud cough from behind him. He shook even to his feet. He wasn't expecting such an intrusion and that was what scared him, because the person was so close to him.He turned to see who it was. Glancing at his face down his body, he didn't recognize him.“Who are you by the way? And why did you barge on me like that?”

Morgan opened his eyes after a very long sleep. He looked sideways, he saw the light had brightened the surface. He raised his head and grinded his teeth.“Now is the time to take my daughter down! Just like I killed her mother. I need to shut her light and put her out of the game before she becomes my total headache,” he thought in his head.Morgan hadn't in his life feared before until now. A lot had happened.He felt he was being monitored by someone, but he didn't know until it turned out they were his past foes and enemies.Morgan's phone started ringing out. “Hello! Who is this?” Morgan strained out. He was expecting someone he had commissioned to a task.“You have 3 more days, Morgan. If not, things wouldn't go easy with you,” the caller threatened him.Morgan's illegal cartel was in danger. His deals had been affected greatly and it had caused sloppy growth for his company.This didn't affect only his company but it affects everything that had to do with him.Morgan stepped do

“My father's name is….” She called his full name, with the address of his house and the places he visits often.She unlocked her phone and showed him his picture. “This is how he looks. Let me send it to your phone,” she said to him.“Okay!” He brought out his phone and collected it from her.Back to Ethan. “For this job, I will pay you a million dollars. But now, I will give half payment when you are done, I will pay you the rest. Do we have an understanding?” He asked him.“Yes, sir!” He replied at once. “If you are going to call, Message or hold a physical meeting… for calls and messages, use a private unknown number so it can't be traced easily. For private meetings, come in disguise so you won't be followed,” Ethan explained all his rules to him.“Consider it done, sir!” He said to him.“Good! your account number, please,” he said to him.Without further ado, he told him his account number and boom, Ethan had the money transferred at once.“I have transferred the money,” he said

Ethan exhaled. He walked up to his clothings and wore them. Just then, Veronica's phone started ringing.“Baby! Your phone is ringing,” he alerted Veronica.“Help me bring it,” Veronica gave a loud shout from within.Ethan picked up the phone. He didn't look at his face. He went to the bathroom and gave it to her. But he stylishly swayed his eyes not to see her body.“Thank you!” Veronica said after she collected the phone from him. Checking the person calling, she discovered it was the man they had called early yesterday.“Baby! It is the same man that wasn't picking yesternight,” she informed him.“Huh! Let me pick It then,” he said and immediately collected the phone from her. He picked the call.“Hello!” He said with a loud voice.“Hello, this is Baldwin, a private investigator,” he replied.“Yes, Mr Baldwin. This is Ethan. I exhausted my call card over there. Can we see this morning?” He asked.Mr Baldwin halted. He thought about it for a while. He looked through all his schedule

The both of them walked into the hotel. “Good evening?” Ethan said to the reception.“Good evening. How can we help you?” The receptionist asked him.Ethan exhaled and swallowed the saliva in his mouth. “I want a room,” he said to her.“Oh. Okay. A room! What type of room? Or just any room would do?” She asked so she could know their specifications.“Not any room! We need a classic room at least in the average with a minimum night pay,” he explained to her.The reception checked the room available quickly. “Okay, the only average room available is room 40 and it's going for just three hundred dollars per night,” she said to him.Ethan looked at Veronica. It was a nice price. They realized they could actually stay there for days.“Okay! I will be staying here. Can I have my room key already?” he asked her.“Okay! When you are checking out tomorrow, will you pay?” She asked him.Ethan looked at her and he wondered if something urgent happened that required them running, so, he made the

Ethan got there, “I was asked to make payment of three hundred dollars here, this is my card,” he extended it to them.“Okay!” One of them collected it. He deducted the money at once. When he was at the door, he collected the receipt from him.Ethan walked up to him, he slammed the receipt on his hand. “That is your receipt. Start my work, please,” he said to her.“Okay!” The man folded the receipt into his pocket. He started repainting the car.Ethan went directly to Veronica. He exhaled. “I know you are angry, Ethan! Calm your nerves, it's not worth it to be angry here,” she said to him.Ethan sighed. “The man is actually a ridiculous one. Telling us to pay when he hadn't even touched the car. I promise to bash him if he doesn't paint the car well,” he said to her.Veronica glanced at her. “It's better you stop getting angry unnecessarily, my dear. Look at how he is doing it. I bet he can't make a single mistake,” she said to him.Ethan was taken aback by her words. “Whose side are

Ethan noticed a slight panic in her voice. “Don't panic, baby! We'll be fine!” He said to her.Veronica glanced at him. “I am not panicking. I am just wondering if you have a solution to this problem?” She asked him.Ethan glared at her but he quickly faced the road. “Anyways! Do you have a solution, cause I don't,” he said to her.Veronica licked her teeth. “Okay! The solution to this is to drive to a location we are not going to!” She said to him.Ethan sighed. He was left unsatisfied. That wasn't the solution he was looking out for. “I don't think changing location or route would be the best thing to do,” he said to her.Veronica was surprised. “Why did you say that? This car is practically following us!” She alarmed. Her voice was filled with an air of distrust.Ethan sighed. “I know you don't trust me, but you will have to do this. I know the best thing to do here. This is the best opportunity for us to get evidence against Morgan. Why don't you bring out your phone and take pic

“Are you expecting someone?” Veronica asked him, considering his facial expression.“Huh!” “No, I am not expecting anyone,” he said to her.Veronica exhaled. “Let me check the door!” She stood on her feet and walked forward.Ethan was at watch. He wanted to see the outcome.“Who is there?” Veronica asked immediately as she reached for the door.“It's the room service, mam!” She said to her.Veronica was quite surprised. “No one called the room service. Why are they here?” She has it in mind that there would be an ulterior motive to it all.“We did not call the room service. Why are you here then?” She asked her.“I brought your food. You are in a classic hotel. You don't need to order, we know what to do,” she said aloud.“Wow!” That word came out of her lips involuntarily. She was taken aback by that statement of hers.She opened the door immediately.“Good morning, mam!” She greeted her.Veronica glanced at her. Right in front of her was a young, adorable lady. She held a long tray
