Luisa Jenkins at eighteen discovered that she was pregnant and had no idea who the father was. She only knew his face and his name. Two years later she came back to the city to set her life back to normal with her baby - Chris. She got a job as a maid in the Sanchez's mansion, only to discover that Kingston Sanchez the most eligible bachelor was the father of her baby. Fear of having her baby snatched from her would make her keep the baby's identity a secret. Kingston had been looking for the lady he had a one-night stand with, only to discover that she had vanished into thin air. Two years later, she was standing in his mansion as a maid, served to him on a platter of gold.
View MoreKingston’s P.O.V.“Derek’s dead.”Luisa dropped on the bed. I guessed regardless of how she thought she hated him, his death was still shocking to her. I was pretty shocked myself. I wanted to be the one who ended his life slowly, but I never thought he could be so cowardly. He chose his death to be tortured, but then he had been so sure of himself, so I wondered why he suddenly changed his mind and died.She looked around, avoiding my gaze and biting her lower lips.“I told the guys to bury him silently. He doesn’t have any family.”She sighed, “Do you also think it’s our fault? If we had handed him over to the police, he might not have killed himself, right?”Holding her shoulder, I shook my head, “It’s not our fault, Luisa. All we did was protect our family. Anyone will do anything for family’s sake. And we didn’t kill him. He chose death.”She paused to assimilate that and nodded, “I went to him yesterday, alone.”My hold on her tightened, “What?”“After we left Derek, I went to s
Luisa’s POV I trailed back the path I just left with Kingston. I wasn’t supposed to be back here, but I had been doing daring things and was ready to take it up a notch. I wasn’t trying to be brave or pretending to be, but I wanted to make something clear to him, and I know I’m the only one who can pass the message loud and clear. I was expecting some kind of security to guard the building in case of an attempted escape – and I have my perfect excuse at the tip of my tongue.Alas! There was no one.The door was closed firmly, and the key was attached to it. It made no sense, but barely anything makes sense these days. When I came with Kingston, there was no one at the door, but I had expected that was because Kingston was there. I thought once he left, someone would be guiding him, like Jimmy, ensuring there was no way to escape.Well, I guessed attaching a key to the lock made it safe. I unlocked the door and stepped in slowly. My senses were on alert. Maybe someone was guiding hi
Luisa’s POVI wasn’t wicked. I wasn’t the type that sees others in pain and gets happy, but I was when I saw Derek there. I thought it would be a painful experience, but it was just the closure I needed – knowing he wasn’t anywhere that could be dangerous to my family. Knowing he couldn’t escape gave me some peace of mind.After walking a few distances from him, Kingston stopped us, “Are you okay?”I frowned. I know he was trying to protect me, but I wasn’t some kind of weak female. I wanted him to know that. “I’m fine.”He didn’t smile, “I just want to make sure you are really fine. It’s your first time seeing such a sight.”That’s true. I might have felt pity for someone else, but I didn’t feel pity towards him. We continued walking, and an idea boomed in my head, “How about we celebrate?”“Celebrate.”I nod, “Remember that we couldn’t go on our honeymoon because of the situation. How about we start our celebration now?”He raised a brow in astonishment. He had rubbed on me. No
Kingston’s POV.My hand hurt, and I wrapped a cloth around it bruises on it. I wasn’t ready to stop what I was doing. I grabbed Derek’s collar and moved him closer to me, but he was all limp. His lips were bruised and covered in blood. I was certain, I must have knocked off one or two of his teeth, but he forced a smile towards me, showing his bloody teeth.It was getting boring to me.I loved it when he struggled, and could still talk about how Luisa was his. How all I was doing wouldn’t make him leave her alone? How she was going to realize I wasn’t good enough for her?It was fun when he had the fight in him, but now, it was boring. He could barely talk, even if he wanted to.I threw him back, flexing my hand, and turned towards Jimmy who stood at the edge of the door. “No food for him today?”Jimmy nodded, and I headed to the bathroom washing off his filthy blood. I bathed thoroughly and changed my clothes before heading to my family. There was no way to hide my bruises so
Luisa POVI didn’t take my eyes off Derek from the rearview. I could hardly believe he was her in the car with handcuffs. My gaze momentarily went to Rena and I paled – it was my fault. The bruise on her lips was all because of me. It should be my lips, not hers.“I am sorry, Rena.”She turned towards me and winced a bit touching the bruise, “It's okay. It’s what I signed up for.”I chuckled, “You didn’t sign up for a bruise on your face, that’s all on me.”She shrugged, “Regardless, I am just glad to be of help. Honestly.”Fabian snorted. I glared at him, but that didn’t keep him shut.“I can’t believe you lied to me, Jenny. You were the one I was looking for and you sent me up.”If it wasn’t for the bruise on Rena’s lips, I might have felt guilty for lying to him, but I felt nothing. “That’s because you weren’t willing to know the truth. You only heard the story from one person's perspective and you jumped to a conclusion. I can’t put my trust in someone who blindly trusts
Kingston’s POVThis place was a hotel in disguise. It was hard to believe that there was a hotel without security, but the first point of contact was the receptionist. While we were trying to follow Rena’s dot, she stopped us with a smile.“Welcome to Numb Hotel. How can we be of service to you?”I frowned, and turned towards her, improvising, “We need a room.”She mentioned the price, and I could hardly believe how cheap this hotel was. It might have been the reason they lacked security and safety. She pressed a bell on the table, and we waited – each second painfully long until another woman came out from somewhere. She was fat and her stomach seemed to be obstructing her from moving normally.“Follow me.” She said.She started moving us in the opposite direction of the blue dot. I stopped and she copied me, “Any problem?”I pointed towards the direction, “I want a room on that side.”She sighed as if she had been afraid we were planning on canceling. I guess they do need mon
Luisa’s POVTracking someone wasn’t as easy as it was portrayed in movies. It was way more stressful, and it didn’t help that they were on foot while we were following them in a car. They kept boarding different public buses. After some time I took a nap. It took a while for me to wake up and see that we were following a new bus. Kingston turned and smiled at me, “You are awake. I think we are almost there. This is the mall where I met that idiot.”I looked out of the window. Of course, I knew the idiot he was talking about, but I didn’t say a word. The town Derek seemed to be hiding in wasn’t what I expected. It looked like a small town with fewer people. The mall Kingston had pointed out didn’t have a lot of people shopping there. It might have been the reason they were able to corner him without anyone to help him.“Where are they now?”“In the bus, ma,” Jimmy responded. I nodded thinking of what Rena would feel like at the moment. Her last words ring in my head, but I can
Kingston’s POV“I think we should be getting ready now.”The moment I heard Luisa say that I placed my hand on the steering, but I didn’t move. I could see the eagerness in Luisa, but nothing was happening. It was just Rena looking around as if she was searching for someone; probably she was looking for that Fabian guy. No one had seen him this morning. They know to report to me once he was sight, but I haven’t received any message from anyone, it only meant one thing, no one has seen him. Rena stopped and placed her phone in her ears.“I think she is calling Fabian,” Luisa said. I smirked at her, everyone could see that but she was so eager to point everything out. If it was up to me, she wouldn’t be following us in this operation, but she had planned and worked on everything. I wouldn’t want to be the one to deprive her of the joy of achieving something. Plus, it would be good for her to see that Derek wasn’t invisible. I wanted nothing more than for her to be at ease with
Luisa’s POVI didn’t sleep all through the night. Kingston didn’t sleep either. He kept trying to keep me calm, but I had a lot of things going through my head. I had handed Chris over to Jenny. Kingston had instructed the security in the house to increase immediately after we were out of the mansion. He didn’t believe Fabian would keep it a secret from Derek. According to him, Fabian was the loyal type, and it would be difficult for someone loyal to keep a secret from his boss. That didn’t help my anxiety, it only added to it.All I did was pace around trying to figure out what hadn’t happened. I had never felt so paranoid in my life.“Calm down, dear. Nothing bad is going to happen.” Kingston said. He was sitting on the bed, his gaze continued to follow me as I moved.“I know, but what if he hurts Rena before we get there.”He sighed, “We are going to get him before he gets close to Rena.”I nodded because I trusted Kingston. I believe if he says it was going to happen, then
