As Tiffany remained on the ground crying, she thought about all her moments with Jake. The same moments she had thought about for like a thousand times.When she woke up in the morning, she said to herself, "No, I can't give up like this. I need to tell Jake how I feel. Whatever happens after that, I will deal with it."She freshened up, got dressed, came out of the room, and told Joe and Sam, "You both shouldn't worry about me anymore. You can leave, I'll take it on my own from here.""Are you sure, Mrs. Tiffany?" Joe asked. "Mr. Jake insisted that we protect you.""Oh, come on. I'm not a child, okay? You both can leave."Sam and Joe bid her goodbye and left. Afterward, Tiffany took her things and boarded the next available flight to meet Jake. The moment her flight landed, she paid for a guest house, changed, and hurried to his company.It was almost time for Jake to leave work when Tiffany got to his company. She walked to the receptionist and said, "I'm here to see my husband.""W
Tiffany's eyes brimmed with tears but she wiped them as she wondered, "Why? Why would Jake think that I'm settling for him? He should know that if I don't love him, I will not come to him. Why wouldn't he even let me say what is in my heart?"She suddenly ran out of his office, still wanting to talk to him but she couldn't find him, and she had no idea where he had gone. She sighed, "Fine! You didn't listen to what I had to say today. Well, there's tomorrow, and there's next tomorrow. You have to hear everything I have in my heart before you make up your mind, Jake."After this, she left his company and began heading back to her guest house. Unknown to her, Dass was watching her from a car. As he stared at her, he recalled how he had been kidnapped and cuffed, kept by fifteen men, who said that his fiancée wanted to see him. But in the end, Tiffany did not show up and it made him even more angry. The men had eventually uncuffedhim and asked him to leave. But then, he had someone ke
Jake sat in his study, thinking about Tiffany.He felt very sad about the way things had ended for them. He knew that it was going to get harder for him,especially with Tiffany still trying to keep him close.Now that she had already gotten what she wanted, why couldn't she understand his feelings and stay away from him?She was only making things difficult. And as tempting as it was to stay by her side, he knew how it would turn out. He knew Tiffany better than anyone else. Judging by how much she loved Dass, if he began a relationship with her after hearing her confess to someone that if she ever ended up with him, she would be settling, she would hate him in the long run and then it would become more messy. They might even become enemies and his heart would not be able to take it.The lady in his office earlier, after seeing him back then at the ice cream parlor in London, she had returned to tell him that she still had feelings for him and wanted to know if it was possible for
"Yes, it does," Paige told Jake. "I'm going to take this to my husband later, but I might as well tell you everything so you can go to Tiffany, okay? The lady in that picture, she was once my evil step-sister. We were related in the past.....at least, I grew up thinking we were related until I found out we were not.""So, she has a grudge against you or something." Jake tried to understand the situation."It's much more than you're thinking." Paige replied. "It's a deep seated grudge. Her name is Candy and I grew up thinking we shared the same father. She was very mean to me, she and her mother and she did so much to me and went the extra mile to make my life miserable but fortunately, I met Zach and... He saved me. He got married to me and my life became better.But before marriage, after I met Zach, Candy wouldn't give up. She tried to hurt me, she had me kidnapped, she wanted to burn me alive and Zach came to my rescue. Zach punished her severely and she ended up being kidnapped b
After trying unsuccessfully to call Tiffany, Jake sighed, "It's all my fault, I should not have let her leave earlier. I should have at least spoken to her and gotten to know where she was staying.Perhaps I can send her a message and if her phone comes on, she can quickly reply." He thought.He opened his inbox when he noticed he had already received a message from Tiffany. He had many unread messages that he hadn't looked at because he had been too busy, but then he was eager to know what Tiffany had sent to him.Opening the message, he realized it was a video. He watched and listened to her attentively as she professed her love for him, with tears rolling down her cheeks. He felt as though he was dreaming. "Tiffany. Why? Why didn't you tell me sooner?" He paused when he remembered that Tiffany had indeed tried to tell him but at the time, he didn't really think Tiffany was in love with him, so he didn't even give her a chance to speak. He got up, picked up his car keys, and ran o
TIFFANYI opened my eyes and looked around. My vision was blurry, I saw faint images around me and I heard voices too.I closed my eyes and opened them again as I tried to adjust to the light. Eventually, one of the voices began to sound familiar and it seemed to draw closer.As I listened, everything began to come back to me. I recalled seeing Dass in front of my door and I remembered him attacking me. My eyes suddenly shot open and I tried to get up from where I was. At that point, I realized my hands were bound at my back. I struggled to sit as I saw Dass approaching me.I tried to free my hands which were bound, but I could not because they had been tied with a thick rope. "Dass!" I exclaimed. "What are you doing?" He scoffed, "That's a wrong question, my darling. You should be asking me, 'Why?'I wriggled my hands once again, as I still struggled to break free, but I could not."Untie me, Dass, right now," I instructed him. He smiled, walked closer to me, and lowered his fa
TIFFANY At this point, Dass angrily gripped my neck and began to choke me as he sneered, "You pathetic bitch, I put up with you for so long, do you know that?For every single day, I pretended to love and touch you, I felt sick to my stomach. Your petty whining and horrible voice annoyed me to no end.I was so disgusted because, in this entire world, there is no one I loathe more than you and your parents."His mom tapped him when she saw that If he continued choking me, I was going to die. He let go of me and slapped me again before walking away.He stood in the distance as though he was trying to control his temper while I struggled to catch my breath with my face on the ground and blood dripping from my mouth.I sat up again, stared at both of them, and spat, "You're a coward, Candy; a bloody, fucking coward. You have problems with my parents, If you're so great and so powerful like you two are trying to show off right now, why not take it up with them? Why come after me? Isn't it
Jake and Reign drove to the location where Tiffany was being kept, with Reign controlling the steering because Jake was too shaken up to drive.The previous day, after Jake found out that Tiffany had been abducted by Dass, and called Reign to give him the news, Reign had immediately taken a flight to meet him.They both informed all their contacts to search for Tiffany and also spent the night searching for her in possible places Dass could have taken her to.Reign had instructed Jake not to let his parents know that Tiffany had been abducted because he was worried about the impact it would have on his mom's health.After searching unsuccessfully throughout the night, they freshened up in Jake's house in the morning and resumed their search. It was early in the afternoon that they got the information that Tiffany had been taken to London by Dass and was being held in a secret house.They both quickly took a flight back to London and began heading to the location.On the way, Jake who
