Bidding for love Chapter 84
John's POVWatching a girl in distress because of me wasn't supposed to make me flinch. But seeing Sarah cry because of her made me pissed. That went extremely down to my nerves. “Can you stop?” I roared. Charles was enjoying the moment anyway. He couldn't help but just laugh and make fun of the moment. “I can't, man. You have to accept my offer. You don't have a choice anyway,” he boasted. He was really full of himself at this moment. The shooter was about to take another shot at the girl. “Stop!” I yelled. “What…What do you want?” “It's simple…” The next thing that followed was a collision. The door blew up, and the room was filled with smoke. I took charge of the opportunity immediately, as I rushed to where Sarah was tied. I took off the restraints they had on her hands and feet as well. “Untie her,” she urged. There was no time for unnecessary questions, so I quickly took off her restraints as well. “Freeze!! FBI!!” Those were the words I hcard as armed men wal
Bidding for love Chapter 85
Sarah's POVI couldn't seem to place why John had to interrupt the introduction. I sensed fear coming from him. Condition it be that he was scared of my mother having to frown at our relationship?My mother, on the other hand, looked quite suspicious. Her gaze on John was unwavering. “Mum, what's the problem?” I broke the silence in the room. Mum's face hardened. “I have seen him somewhere. But you're welcome anyway,” Mum said. I bet John was uncomfortable at this moment. He slowly sat on the sofa, with his instincts flared. “John, right?” Mum still pressed on with her suspicion. “Yes…Yes ma,” John replied. Mum's countenance brightened immediately, as if she recalled something in an instant. “That's right. You're the man. John Stones,” Mum said. Everybody was in bewilderment of what was going on. I couldn't tell what she was trying to do. “He's the man they said… He kidnapped you. Yes, he is the man,” Mum said furiously. She ragefully stood up from her chair and tried to

John's POVI was already feeling nervous.I knew deep down that Sarah was never going to allow me to do what I was planning to do, but her mother was desperate.“Speak up, young man,” Sarah's mother said.“I am sorry, ma. Like I said. I will tell you everything you need to know,” I assured her.Right now, she had all her attention on me, and she was ready to hear all I had to say.“I signed a contract with Sarah. I was the person who paid for your medical bills. It came with a price,” I started.“A contract? What was this contract about?” She asked.“A contract marriage. For one year,” I replied.Meanwhile, Sarah felt like dropping into the ground immediately.“So, this is why Sarah couldn't come back? She was certainly paying off this debt that she owed you.”I nodded in positive affirmation.“Sarah, you shouldn't have gone through this stress because of me,” she said.“I think I'll take my leave now,” I stood up from the chair.Sarah's weary eyes were locked onto me as we both gazed
Bidding for love Chapter 87
John's POVMy excitement had turned to sadness in the blink of an eye.All my attention just turned from my beautiful wife , Sarah, to the television before me.Everybody had their eyes fixed on the screen to see what Sarah's mother was about to say.Rosaline, on the other hand, was still confused as to what we were looking at.But she just remained calm to read the room.“John Stones kidnapped my daughter. I need him to be arrested immediately. I can't sit back and…” Sarah's mother broke down in tears before the camera.Sarah quickly reached for the remote and turned the television off.“I can't let you continue watching that.”“Babe, your mum has taken this too far. I didn't expect this,” I said shockingly.Sarah was in shock as well.I could tell from her eyes that she was just getting so much pain from what her mother was doing out there.Sarah couldn't get a hold of herself anymore.She quickly rushed into the room and shut the door behind her.Rosaline tried to go after her, but

Sarah's POVThere he was, standing confused and yet called among it all.“Please, leave him alone. My mother has gotten the whole story wrong,” I urged the policeman.“I don't think so,” he replied.Suddenly, my mother came running in through the door. “Get that man arrested!”“No, don't do that. He hasn't even hurt me. We were just having a good time.” I struggled with the cops as they placed a handcuff on John's hands.But they pulled me away from him as I struggled to hold on to him.My mother just went ahead to hit John repeatedly with her handbag as he was taken out of the building.Shockingly, John displayed no form of resistance.He was just so calm as the cops took him away.My tears just poured like water from my eyes as I wailed in pain while watching the drag my lover away.This wasn't something which I planned to sit back and watch.“Get a hold of yourself, woman. Let's go,” Mum declared.I glared at her angrily. I wanted to show her how angry I was, but she was my mother.

John's POVI have been feeling so disturbed about the fact that Sarah's mother hasn't accepted me.So, I decided to take a leap of faith.I took the phone from her and picked up the call.“Hello ma,” I said.The phone line became calm for a while as I waited for a response from her.“You're a wicked man. I need my daughter back. What don't you understand?” She barked.“But we love each other. All we need is for you to accept our union,” I replied calmly.“I don't want to see her around you. Can't you understand?”Sarah made an attempt to express her rage to her mother, but I signalled her to remain calm.I heaved a sigh of frustration. “Let's meet up, and then we can talk about this again. You will pick the location.”Her mother hesitated. “My house. I'll be waiting to take my daughter back.”The line went dead immediately.It was certain now. The hatred her mother had for me was unimaginable.I thought it was something that would eventually subside, but this isn't the case.“Why do y

John's POVRight there, the decision was left for me to make.My gaze locked onto Sarah's weary eyes as she looked at me in anticipation.She was patiently waiting to hear what I had to say.“You know you don't have to listen to her,” Sarah said.Juliette didn't utter a single word.“I will take my leave now. You can have her. I guess this is the price I will have to pay,” I said bluntly.I alighted from the sofa and made an attempt to take my leave.But Sarah grabbed my arm. I turned, only for my eyes to meet her crying.“You can't do this to me,” She pleaded as tears came rolling down from her eyes.I looked at her mother, who remained on the sofa.But she didn't say anything. I didn't want to come in between a family.If her mother was going to see this act of mine, as proof of my love for her daughter, then I don't have a choice.I looked at Sarah as words eluded my lips.I just loosened her grip on me and left immediately without turning back.I entered the car, and the driver dr

Sarah's POVThe pain was becoming unbearable.It just kept replaying. The scene of how he just walked out that door without looking back.But there was no way I could blame him. My mother didn't give him a choice.“You should definitely blame him for being a coward,” Lily said.I lifted my heavy face and locked my eyes on her.“Don't give me that look. You can't sit here and be crying for a man that never fought to keep you,” She added.“You can't say that. You weren't even there to see that mum didn't give him a choice,” I replied.Lily hasn't been of help to me since I told her what happened yesterday.I mean, I expected her to sympathise and give me some emotional support.But she has just been trying to make John seem too bad before me.“I know I wasn't there when all this happened, but I expected him to walk through that door today. Did he?” She had so much confidence behind her tone.“You have no idea what that man is passing through,” I sniffled.“Stop crying. I need to get som

John's POV“It's been a while man, where have you been?” I smirked.I was so excited to meet Raymond again. Raymond is the only real friend I've ever had in my entire life I never expected that I was going to meet him after we both graduated and parted ways.“Come on, John. You know how it goes in this world. I've been working so hard for the paper,” He replied.I chuckled. “Hell yeah! You look like you've been making quite an awesome amount of money. I mean, look at your ride, man.”Raymond smirked. “You mean that. That's cheap. Compared to all you have here.”“Don't be fooled,” I chuckled.Raymond leaned in towards me.“Who's the lucky lady?” He whispered.I paused for a while.“That reminds me. How about Stella? Did you both end up married,” I scoffed.Raymond smiled. “Of course we didn't. She's happily married to another man now.”“What happened,” I piqued.“We…It just couldn't work out. You know… The both of us,” Raymond sighed.“But, what about you? What about Rebecca?” He enq
