Chapter 32: Meeting With The Anonymous Devil.

Lisa remained in her thoughts, cheerless throughout the whole ride back to Leo’s domain; her residence for the main time.

The car parked into the garage. Lisa alighted quickly, before her escort could even reach over and help with the door. She strode in a hasty pace, marching into the mansion with her handbag clutched to her left arm.

There was nobody at home, except for the housekeeper. Leo must have either left for work or just not around, Lisa moved past the housekeeper without notifying her of her presence, coming to a stop only after she got to her room.

Trotting inside, she took off her heels, plopping herself down instantly on her bed as she broke down in fresh sobs.

Everything came rushing back, how she almost died, the frenzy of that moment, the furor of her heart, of her life about to end.

Lisa heaved a chortle, “I was expecting that. I’m Lisa Carter, would have been Briggs. But I recently divorced my husband, Kurt Briggs. And you must be, Diana Ford? Right?” Her eyes squinted, with furrrowed brows and an index lifted pointing at her. “What are you doing in my office please? I don’t know who you and your husband are, or how you came to know of who I am. But please, if you’re here for any professional reason. I suggest you get on with it, before I call in official guards to throw you out.” She threatened, with her expression turning cold and stoic. “I’m going to be straight. You’re after me, you’re after my life and now that I’m seeing you. I’m here to warn you to back off,

    Chapter 34: Obsession’s Toxicity. Kurt wanted to run after her, to chase after and deny her question. But the harsh reality that she’s now aware of the secret had him glued to the spot, nursing million questions on how she came to know about it. A business associate of his had wanted to meet up for a brief chat, regarding the contract binding them as business partners. He wasn’t expecting to run into Lisa, the worst was her knowing about the pregnancy. He couldn’t help himself believing that now that she knows, he doesn’t have any chance of redemption with her again. A look of regret etched into his face, dragging his feet into motion he trudged into the elevator. Riding straight to the fifth floor, the floor where his associate resides temporarily. He said his room was numbered six hundred and two, and after searching through the row on the right, he came by the door tagging the said number. He has a card with him, one that allows his entrance so he didn’t bother knocking, he

    Chapter 35: Thrown Into Doubts It was the next day, Lisa had just finish dressing up to go start her new job. She was pretty hyped, compared to her gloomy nature the other day. Finding out about Rhea’s pregnancy, and Kurt not denying it sent her into the drowsy mood. She came home directly from the hotel, ate some food and went straight to bed. She spent the next few hours in bed, awake and in her thoughts. Night came and her dinner was delivered to her, she didn’t have to go downstairs to have it. Leo came to check up on her, threw some few words and left. Lisa didn’t tell him about Kurt expecting a baby, she could only guess what to expect from him as well. He wanted her to forgive Kurt, he sees him begging her now and wanting her back very genuine. That was what her conversation with him yesterday morning insinuated, and she spent her day ruminating on it. This was the guy she spent five years loving, she’s still very much in love with him, and he finally loves her back. Sh

Lisa blinked, becoming aware of her surroundings. She looked up at the man in front of her, flashing him a sweet smile. “I’m going to work and I wanted to let you know, but I chickened out as I wanted to knock.” She came up with a smooth explanation, retaining her smile. “It’s fine, just make sure to remain safe and away from trouble. Wyatt, your bodyguard told me what happened yesterday. I don’t want anything happening to you, so try to keep yourself safe in anyway you can. For instance, don’t go talk to strangers who are following you except the person is Wyatt.” He admonished, coating his words with both concern and care. For a split second, Lisa caught herself burying her doubts. That the man talking to her is a true human being, and not shady like she just found out.

I said I’m not interested in working here anymore.” She rephrased. “No!” He sharply declined just after she made the statement. “Why?” Lisa flummoxed at his sharp declination, he had just stated for her not to mix up their personal vendetta with profession, yet that seem exactly like what he’s doing. “Because Ms Carter, you can’t just quit on your boss all of a sudden or out of the blue. You need to at least inform me days before I concur with such decision, then a resignation letter needs to be submitted for me to review and approve. Yes I said approve, because things here will be changing to exactly how I want it to be. Employees can now only quit by my approval, and that is after certain steps have been carried out. Today is a long day, Ms Carter, I suggest we get to work. Go on to your desk, I will call you when you’re needed.” He came up with a long e

Like I’m very sure you know you being my boss doesn’t stretch over to my personal affairs?” She backed her point, taking an offensive stance against him. “He’s a danger to your safety, so I suggest you do by my order and indeed fire him. I wouldn’t be asking you to do this if it isn’t crucial, it’s crucial to your safety. I can’t share more than I already share, sack him and get him far away from you if you want to be safe. If you don’t do that, then you’re in danger. He is not who he said he is, a skilled bodyguard assigned to protect you I mean, he’s a formidable assassin posing as the protector when he is in fact the danger. You can go!” Instant he dropped his attention back to the system he was operating on, having no interest in a further conversation with Lisa about his demand.He purposely did that, to make sure he did the right thing.

He then took the gift bag, check out what was inside and it was an Hermes golden bracelet neatly placed in a box. All together with the box, he threw it out of the glassy window, creating a hole through the glass. Anger radiated from his presence when he returned to where Callan stood standing across where Lisa seated. “What was my warning?” He seethed, in a grim tone as he launched a folded fist into his face. Lisa gasped, totally not expecting all he was doing from him, she expected a much more reserved reaction.She had never seen a jealous side of Kurt before, because it took so long even experience his love.

He did just referred Lisa as his wife, so his words needed to be understood. And if he wasn’t looking wrong, he’s staring at the well known Kurt Briggs. When was Kurt Briggs ever married? So Kurt Briggs has a wife. It’s shocking for him. “What are you doing here, Kurt?” Lisa trailed her darkened eyes up to look at him, to show him just how much he’s bothering the flow of her peace: “Call it instinct, wasn’t this dude hitting on you?” He grilled, his feisty gaze focused on Cole. “Do you know him? Is he really your husband? What is going on-““You can shove those questions right back where they came from, and instead tell me the reason why you were touching someone that doesn’t belong to you?” Kurt closed the space separating them, his tone more rough and his hand fisted. He leveled Cole a daring glare, as if daring him to utter the wrong word. L

    Chapter 43: Danger For The Stranger.Throughout Lisa’s ride to the club where her friend was, waiting for her. One thing pressured her thinking box, her encounter back at Leo’s mansion with a possible captive. She didn’t want to believe what she heard, or the strange moments that was with Mrs Elle; she was all edgy compare to her usual self. Lisa arrived at the club, sauntering her way through the sweaty crowds downstairs till she got to the spot secured for their outing by her friend. It was space inside the VIP’s lobby. “Lisa!!!” Jules called out once her gaze met with Lisa’s. Springing to her feet with her arms stretched wide, calling Lisa in for a hug. “Come here girl, it’s been so long,” she wheezed, gleaming with glee. They chattered quite briefly before taking their seats, “So I have two more friends on their way, and this is going to be your first time meeting them. Where I met them or where they’re from is not important at the moment, what’s important is,” she paused, whi

Her eyes paled reading the text, it was from an anonymous sender, making yet another threat. “What are their names again? Steve and Joanna. Stay away from Kurt or they die!” She exhaled audibly, glancing around at the unease settling in her system as she dropped her phone. This was becoming more than she can handle, and there is no one she could reach out to for help. She’d lost appetite for her lunch, putting it all aside with the half emptied juice. Her phone buzzed where she tossed it, ringing up in the silence. Lisa heaved a groan before picking it up, the caller contact screening Jules. “Tell me you’re getting ready or that you haven’t changed your mind?” Her gleeful voice sounded on the phone. Tugging on Lisa’s emotions. She wanted the happiness, the excitement Jules was currently feeling. Her feelings are shacked into a void filled with darkness and dept

And an emerald green thin necklace made out of gem, plus the purple and black designed bracelet. All worrying close to ten million dollars, she couldn’t refuse it.

He bought her a new bouquet of Iris flowers, with gold dusts sprinkled all over it giving the beauty a much more elegant feel and look. There wasn’t another stop next, he dropped her off at Leo’s mansion and finally left her alone, waving her goodbye and expecting to see her tomorrow at the office; with her bodyguard sacked of course. Lisa retired straight to her room, slamming her body straight on her body while heaving a long heavy sigh. Her flow
