The CEO of Vernon's corporation, Harry Vernon, had commanded his personal assistant to work even harder on finding the woman he had a night stand with five years ago. He needs to find out the truth as soon as he can so he know how to punish Debby.
The sex he had with the strange woman five years ago happened because he drank himself to stupor. A few hours before that night, he and his pregnant girlfriend arrived in his house after going for a party. He didn't expect for her to suddenly slump and die. All efforts to revive her was futile so he stormed to his club that night and wasted himself to alcohol. Up until today, he hasn't healed.
He didn't want to believe that the woman he had sex with then was Debby.
While in his office, a call came through to his phone and seeing that the caller ID was Horace, he answered it and asked," any positive news about the woman?"
"Yes, sir," Horace responded.
Harry sat upright and curiously asked," I'm all ears."
"We have a lead pointing us to one miss Edna, she's most likely the one but we are not hundred percent sure, yet sir, " Horace said.
"Be here soon, we are heading over to her house immediately," he commanded.
"Got it, sir." Horace said.
About thirty minutes later, about eight cars pulled over before a big mansion. This was where Edna and Alice, her mother are living.
Seven of the eight cars were hilux cars containing Harry's bodyguards while the eighth car was Harry's Mercedes Maybach.
The guards jumped down quickly from their hilux cars and ran speedily to open the door for Harry. Once Harry stepped down, he said to Horace, "inform whoever is inside to step out."
"Got it boss," Horace immediately walked inside the mansion with two guards and soon came out with Alice and Edna.
When the two women both saw Horace, they were shocked. This is the man people call the 'Demon Of DarkHood.' Both Edna and her mother had heard a lot of how ruthless and merciless he was. Not many people had the opportunity to see him.
They wondered what the CEO of the biggest company in the country was doing before their mansion.
Alice smiled and bowed to Harry, "Mr. Harry, to whom do we owe this honor?" Although she was scared on the inside, she tried to sound calm on the outside.
Harry's face remained very aloof and then he said to Edna, "are you Edna by name?"
Edna immediately answered, "yes, sir."
"No one dares to lie to me in the entire Darkwood. Those who tried it in the past suffered a horrible fate. I'll ask you a question and you will speak the truth, understood?" His voice was harsh and hard.
"Sure, sir...sure," Edna stuttered. She was very terrified. She didn't know what the question would be. Edna had fallen flawlessly to Harry's super and extraordinary handsomeness. His cuteness was so overwhelming.
"Five years ago, I was drunk and stormed into a room at my club. A woman came in that night and demanded of me to have sex with her and without thinking twice, I did. Are you the woman?" He asked, his hard gaze making clear holes on her face.
The entire atmosphere became as quiet as graveyard. Infact, the heavy heartbeat of Edna could be heard.
Edna suddenly bursted into tears, everyone was shocked at her sudden outburst. Edna sobbed even more while Harry just watched her indifferently.
"Waiting for my answers?" Harry asked as if he wasn't bothered by her tears.
"I...was the one. I was also drunk that night." Edna cried even more, her head lowered as if ashamed.
"What's the name of the club?" He questioned.
"Club A, room 8," she answered with precision and cried even more.
Alice acted along and hugged her, "don't be sad baby, it's been such a long time."
'It was indeed this woman.' Harry thought and felt bad for Edna. He didn't intend to have sex with any woman that day but what could he do when he was drunk?
"Did you get pregnant?" Harry asked. Afterall, he released inside of her so it was okay to ask such question.
Edna nodded and said," yes..." She sobbed. "I got pregnant then."
Harry's face became even more serious, "and what happened? What happened to the pregnancy?"
"I had miscarriage," Edna eventually raised her face up to look at him, tears still streaming down her eyes. She thought that speaking to him while looking directly at his face will make him more convinced that she wasn't lying.
"I'll compensate you," he said, observing the pathetic woman before him keenly," how much did you want? Just state the price."
"I don't want money, I'm not a materialistic woman," Edna knew better not to give him such impression about her. She has better thing to request for.
"What did you want then?" Harry asked.
"Please let me be around you often, afterall, you don't have a girlfriend," she shyly lowered her head. She didn't want to ask directly to be his girlfriend so as not to look like other desperate women who can't wait to throw themselves at him.
"I'm very dangerous, are you sure you can stand me?" He sounded like he was warning her. Actually, he hated to have women around him. He beleived that getting close with any woman would betray the memories of his first love, his beautiful woman who died with their baby in her womb.
"All these years, I have been living in pain and sorrow. Not only did I lost my virginity that night, I also lost my baby, it's all because of...you?" Edna cried and raised her face up again. She was trying to 'guilt-trip' him so she can grant her request.
Being his girlfriend was worth more than any money he would offer. Also, her reputation would increase greatly and the second company of Debby's father that they were managing that was almost going bankrupt will definitely get it's shape back with the help of Harry Vernon.
"Your daughter is coming with me," Harry suddenly said to Alice. Eventhough he would bring Alice closer to himself, he didn't plan on getting closer to her at all. He was just trying to make up for taking advantage of her many years ago.
Alice pretended to be sad and said to Edna," I will miss you but I'll always support whatever decision you make as long as it makes you happy."
"Thank you mama," Edna hugged her mum and then left with Harry.
Alice couldn't help but smile at her daughter's smart move. She was so happy that she got get closer to Harry Vernon. Afterall, Her boyfriend, Arthur hasn't been serious with her lately. It's been five years yet he wouldn't marry her so he shouldn't blame her daughter for eloping with his brother.
Whereas, Debby had just helped her son to finish taking his drug. "You need to rest, dear."
The little boy nodded and laid on the bed, his head resting on his mother's laps.
"Mom, are you really sure that the tall man didn't beat you?" Fred asked. He was there when the guards came to pick up his mum.
Debby smiled, how can an adult beat another adult? She thought and said to her son," no. Just that we need to avoid that man as much as we can."
"How can you avoid him when he's the CEO of your company?" Fred was curious.
"He didn't even know I work in his company since the company has more than five hundred staffs. It's impossible for him to identify all of his staffs," she said.
"Oh okay! But why did I look like him?" Fred asked.
Debby knew Fred loved to ask a lot of questions, it's not like she mind answering, it's just that he had just taken drug and he need more rest now.
"Sweetheart, you need to sleep so the drug you have just taken can work," Debby said.
"Okay, but answer this question and I'll go to sleep," the little boy assured.
Debby sighed, "okay, I think it's just a coincidence that you look like him, it means nothing."
Fred however didn't believe his mum, he has been with his mum for a long time so if she's not telling the truth, he can see through her.
'What if he's actually my dad, I'll get the man's hair and perform a DNA test. ?' Fred thought quietly while pretending to be sleeping. 'Such a tall rich man with lot of bodyguards would be able to protect his mommy and give her more life of comfort if he happens to be his dad. But how will he get the tall man's hair?' The little one thoughy deeply until he faded off to sleep.
On a Saturday morning after eating breakfast with Fred, Debby left home for work. In order to get enough to foot the debt that her father's company was, she had applied to work as a manager at one of the biggest restaurants in the country and luckily she was accepted. She has vast knowledge when it comes to cooking. She spent most of her days as a cook at the small city that she was with her kid before coming over here. She soon entered her car and drove off. As for Fred, she had already employed a maid who would look after him in her absense. As soon as Debby left the house, Fred, who had been waiting for her to leave all these while immediately walked swiftly to the maid's room. Eventhough the door to the maid's room wasn't locked, he knocked and called with his tiny and cute voice," Aunt Sarah!" Steps could be heard approaching the door after which the door opened. Sarah, the maid saw him and smiled," Fred, do you want me to do something for you?" "Yes." "Okay, tell me,"
For the past few hours, Debby had been working seriously in the restaurant. She had been moving from the kitchen to the VIP section to the commoners section to the VVIP section and to her office just to ensure that everything is in order. That was her duty as the new manager of the restaurant. While going through some paperwork in her office, a knock landed on the door and she spoke," come in, please!" A slim lady walked in, she was one of the workers at the restaurant. "Good afternoon, ma. The director had just arrived and she is requesting for your presence," the lady said. "Okay," Debby had also been willing to meet the director of the restaurant. She stood at once and followed the slim lady outside. After the slimlady lead her to the entrance of the director's office, she walked away. Debby knocked on the door and the person inside spoke that she should walk in. As soon as she opened the door and walked in, she was stunned at who turned out to be the director. "Edna!"
Harry entered the Vernon's villa and was immediately welcomed by the butler. The averagely old butler immediately lead him to sit, "I'll go to inform Master that you here." He lowered his head and quickly walked away. Harry had received a call from his grandfather a few minutes ago telling him to come to his place. Actually, he also had something to tell his grandfather. About a few seconds later, an old man was lead in to the living room, he was supporting himself with a rod and looked very weak. After he had sat, Harry greeted him and asked," grandpa, how is your health?" "It would get better if you do the only thing I've been asking for," the man said and coughed, "Harry, it had been many years since your girlfriend died. For how long will you mourn her?" Harry hated for his grandfather to talk on this subject, this is why he always try to avoid coming to his place. "I found Broderick Alessandro's daughter," he immediately changed the subject to what he thinks was more impo
Debby freezed expecially as the cologne of the person she just collided with filled her nostrils. She raised her head up at once and received the greatest shock of her life when she realized that the person she collided with was Harry Vernon. She almost fainted, she blinked repeatedly and rubbed her face to be sure she was seeing the right person. "I didn't expect that you will be able to escape," Harry Vernon said casually but his face was stern and scary. She swallowed a hard lump that had quickly formed in her throat then she suddenly thought about what he may be doing here. Did this man hurt her son? "My son!" She exclaimed," please tell me you don't hurt him." Debby was more concerned about her son. Henry had come here to visit Fred since Debby had said the boy is likely to be sad if she didn't show up at home. When he got here, he realized that Fred was sad indeed. He tried all his best to cheer him up but he wouldn't respond unless he sees his mom so he decided to free his
Debby went ahead to open the door, she was stunned to see Arthur standing by the door. The frown on her face deepened, "what are you doing in my house?" She already felt like slamming the door across his face. "We need to talk," Arthur said with a scoffing smile across his lips. "What do we have to discuss? Why are you even in my house?" Debby wondered how she knew the new place she's living. "You are mine, Debby," he said confidently," you need to stop acting tough." Debby felt like slapping sense into his head, "I guess that bitch broke your heart?" Debby was referring to Edna. It's no wonder he was cheated on her with Edna. Arthur had never really liked Edna, he had only agreed to marry Edna in the past because her family promised to help his crumbing business rise. Edna had asked him to prove his genuine love for him by having sex with him and he did. He didn't expect that Debby will catch him having sex with Edna then. He knew what he did was wrong but a man has to do what
This man has so many bodyguards and many drivers yet he chose to drive himself today. Weird! Debby thought quietly. Even after three minutes of driving, there was a scary silence inside the car. Debby wondered why he wasn't saying a word. "So Arthur is your fiancee?" He finally spoke. His face concentrating on the road before him. Debby looked at his handsome side profile and corrected, "ex fiancee! We broke up five years ago." He hummed and continued driving then he parked before a large mansion. He got down and she got down too. She had no idea what he had brought her here to do. "This is my family's mansion where my grandfather stay. You must pretend like we are truly getting married to eachother," he said. Debby was shocked, "sorry but you can just take Edna to him since you and Edna are truly getting married soon." Of course, Harry and Edna were both in a relationship so it's expected that they would marry soon, so Debby thought. Harry had brought Edna to his grandfa
Debby bite her lips painfully, she didn't even know how to make the first move to walk out cause of the set of eyes on her. This woman, Alice, was not even her biological mother yet she will never stop abusing her. This must stop! Debby decided never to allow what happened today to repeat itself. Eventhough Alice had played some motherly role on her in the past, she would have to stop regarding her as a mother and regard her as an aunt that she is. Debby began to walk away, as she walked towards where she could get a cab, she couldn't stop thinking about her pathetic life. It's quiet sad that she never got to see her parents until they died. She didn't even know if she had siblings or not. She had lived a lonely and abused life all her life. Guess it's time for her to work her way to the top and raise her child to become someone notable in the society. She soon got a cab and arrived home. On stepping inside, her mind traced back to her new reality. She was now the wife of the most
"I promise I won't do that anymore, please sir. This would be the last time I'll ever come late. I'm really sorry." Jude stared at her once again, licking his lower lips subconsciously and once again, Debby couldn't help but cringe."You are not a bad looking woman afterall?" He was already imagining her naked and him doing all sorts of filthy things with her. Debby was even more disgusted at the man. What was he insinuating? This man is such a pervert. "Let's have lunch together this afternoon, after work?" Taking a critical look at the man, Debby was disgusted that he was slowly becoming clearly perverted with his statement and acts."I am sorry sir, I don't do dates. I am here to work and don't have such time. No offense intended, sir." Jude felt his ego being bruised. Never has any lady rejected him and he wondered what gave this woman before her the gut. A lot of female staffs use to rally around him and couldn't wait for him to fuck them yet this woman is clearly disgusted wit
“We cannot divorce until my grandfather is dead. I can't let you out of my sight. You just have to agree to be my mistress and I'll do whatever it is you demand.” Harry insisted. Mistress are known to be of no value and would be treated with riducule in the society, Harry knows this yet he's making her such a ridiculous offer. While Debby was about to make a stand known that she would never accept to be a mistress in this lifetime, she suddenly felt a sharp pain surge through her head and quickly held on to her head. A sudden wave of De ja vu began to flood her memory. She suddenly remembered herself drowning through this river and a little boy, who looked like a mini version of Harry coming to save her. Debby had memory loss in the past and so, she could easily feel a sense of De ja vu, in a place where she had been to before and the whole thing would become familiar to her, even though she couldn’t fully recall the entire scene. Debby was bewildered. The memory she recalled jus
Harry had hoisted Edna up in his arms and carried her all the way to the bedroom, where he intended to satisfy his sexual urge. Once they arrived at the bed room, Harry dropped her to the bed and immediately pulled off her gown then began to pull off her under pant. Hid hard dick was already struggling to leave his trouser, his breathing was erratic and all he wanted just now was to fuck the woman before him very hard. However, he suddenly felt a stomach ache all of a sudden. He moved away from the bed, groaning in pain and clutching unto his stomach. Edna was pissed, she was elated that they were about to have sex but all of a sudden, he just had to have stomach ache. Why must the godforsaken stomach ache come at this time? Edna cursed. As the stomach ache subsided, Harry suddenly began to feel dizzy and suddenly fell down with a loud thud to the bed. All these reactions were as a result of the way the drugged drink reacts to his body system. Edna was highly frustrated, she neede
It was the seventh day since Debby had been kept in a room. There was no way she could go against Harry's will as she knew that the consequences of her disobedience would be severe. Talking about Fred, he had been coming to see her every day for the past seven days and each time he came, he asked the same question, which was when she was going to leave room. Debby had no idea and all she could hope for at this point was that Harry would be able to reconsider the whole situation and eventually set her free.Beinb locked up in a room by one's husband is a very horrible experience. He's treating her like a slave rather than a wife. Meanwhile, for the past seven days, Harry has been reconsidering his stand with Edna. He wondered why he couldn't feel the connection he had with her, just like he had while he was young. Ever since Edna came back to his life, he had expected that he would establish a bond between himself and Edna, but that wasn't the case.Tonight, Harry and Edna were havi
Harry heard the noise emanating from up the stairs and quickly rushed to check what was happening. Upon opening the door wider, he saw Edna on the floor, while Debby casually stared down at her. "What is going on here?" He demanded in a much authoritative tone."Harry, please don't punish my sister, she had only beaten me mercilessly cause she's angry, I don't want you to hurt her, I'll be fine, " Edna said, looking up to Harry, who was shocked to see the blood printed across her face. He turned his gaze to Debby, who was in shock."You bitch!" He refrained himself from giving her a slap as he had promised himself never to lay a hand on women. He quickly picked Edna off the floor and carried her out of the room. His personal assistant, Horace, who had also heard the shout came for them and when he saw his boss with Edna, he rushed to help the young woman."Take her to the hospital and get her clean up immediately!" He demanded and Horace nodded. Debby was still trying to recover fro
Edna had a knowing smirk on her face, seeing her sister standing motionless, with her gaze on Harry and herself. "Welcome back, Debby. I must admit you look astonishing in that dress..." Debby could see through the facades of her sister. She had always known Edna to be vindictive and this trait was something she would never fall for. Rather than making a statement or a comment, she chose to be silent and simply walked towards her room. Once she locked the door, she moved to stare at herself in the mirror. Harry was the one, who had complained about her being not faithful in their marriage, whereas he was simply being hypocritical with his principles. She wasn't exactly jealous, she didn't have feelings for Harry, but the reality was that seeing her sister so wrapped up in his arms, while she stood there was making her go really nuts. All she could hope for at this point, was at the fact that at some point, she would be able to live a rent free life away from all the hardship that
Debby had to leave work early to a shopping mall to get a dress for the impromptu celebration dinner. She has to look her best since many wealthy people of the city will be in attendance. However, she couldn't afford to buy the ones she really wish she can wear. She eventually gave up on ever finding a suitable dress. She had never attended a luxurious dinner before and at such, her dresses at homs couldn't obviously fit the category of the creme de' la creme status for the evening. She eventually decided to buy a corporate black suit that is neither too expensive nor cheap. Sarah would go to pick up Fred from school and it's the maid's job to ensure that Fred is taken good care of. She called her over and told her she may arrive late at night as she will be attending a dinner this evening that may last for a couple of hours. Sarah noted what she said and then, Debby dismissed her. While dressing up, she heard a knock at the door.Thinking it was Sarah who probably suddenly, remember
"I don't know what you are talking about..." She replied innocently. Debby was still perplexed as to why Arthur would make such statement about her. She has always known him to dislike her, but claiming she was a whore, has never come out of his lips before."Don't act innocent before me!" Arthur's voice sent goosebumps to her skin. She was terrified of the man standing before her. He had a look of rage on him and it felt like he won't mind breaking her. She felt even more uncomfortable cause she was naked, "You told me you have nothing to do with your Arthur any longer and yet I find you in his house last night, and from all indication, you had sex with him?" His statement were venomous, "Is this marriage a joke to you?" However, Debby couldn't relate with what Harry was saying. How did he even find out she went to Arthur's place? Was he secretly spying on her? And who told him she and Arthur had sex? She tried casting her memories back to things that had happened in Arthur's place
Arthur took Debby's unconscious body back to the room, where he had locked her. Once he laid her on the bed, his eyes gazed towards her body and how beautiful she looked. Arthur had the feel of sexual urge taking over his entire body. However, he couldn't do what his body desired of him as he didn't want Edna seeing him with utter disdain. He eventually left the room, after ensuring she slept properly. Arthur ensured he didn't tie her this time. He wanted to make her feel comfortable with him and all he could hope for is that with time, Debby would come around.Later that night, Debby woke up from her sleep and noticed everywhere was dark, she quickly turned on the light. She noticed she wasn't tied like the last time and she tried all the means possible to cast her memory back to the event that had taken place with her, all to no avail.Discarding all effort to try and remember what happened the previous night, Debby stood up and rushed to get out of the room. The room was locked. A
Arthur returned back to Harry one minute later and chuckled cause of the demands of his brother. Bringing Debby is here is risky no matter how hard he tries to think of a way out, there is just no way out. He will be exposed once Debby us out here. He relaxed a bit, trying to see how he could easily calm the tension, which was beginning to grow up. "We are brothers, Harry. We can't be petty and fight just because of a woman. You have no reason seeing my fiancee? Big brother, I believe you are tired. Just go home and rest, I certainly hope you would eventually be at one peace." While he spoke, he noticed the imaginary steams coming out from both side of Harry's ear. Harry was absolutely furious and he kept on restraining himself from administering any form of blow to his younger brother. Arthur noticed the veins popping out of his elder brother's body and knew at that instant that if he said any more triggering statement, all hell would be let loose. Arthur sighed, he was stuck o
