ALEX'S POV

"This silver Jeep has been trailing since I left the Supermart, I whispered to myself while I fixed my gentle gaze on the small mirror above my head.

My heart skipped a beat when I saw it move simultaneously with me, sending a surge of fear through my body.

"That car is following me," I whispered to myself, "But why?" I asked, my eyes still fixed on the side mirror, as I steered to navigate away from the supermarket, speeding off past all the beautiful buildings, shops, and cafeterias.

As I sped off, my mind reeled on what to do. "I need to know if truly the car was following me," I mused thoughtfully, and the only crazy idea I came up with was to stop and park behind a damaged white car that has lost its two front tires, and the other two tires are also lessened.

That was about 4 blocks from my house; I deliberately stopped to see if the car would cease tailing me. "Let's see if you'll follow now," I muttered under my breath, my voice barely audible. Then I widened my eyes

    LORENZO'S POV "He did what?" I asked, my voice laced with anger on the phone, "Boss, we almost got him, but he escaped." Malcolm, one of my deadly gang leaders, explained further with his low voice barely audible.As I held the blonde plaited hair of my Asian bitch, who knelt in between my widely spread legs on a plush sofa, sucking my hard dick, like a vanilla cream, "Uh uh," I gasped in a low voice, with a puff of smoke from the tobacco in my finger. I moaned at every sliding of my dick into her mouth; it sent a chill down my vein as her soft tongue received my dick, making me chant in a language only she would understand, "Jade, Don't fucking stop," I muttered her name, my voice low and breathless.Meanwhile, she continued with the massage using her tongue to lick my dick cap with her long tongue, which sent a chill down my spine. "Oh, yeah, good girl, suck papa," I whispered, forgetting I'm still connected with Malcolm and Victor."Get the fuck," I spat when I overheard Victor de

    Juliet's POV "I can do it," I whispered to myself as I stood in front of Mr. George's study, with my fist clenched together. This could be the craziest idea I've ever executed, but I have no choice but to do it if I want to be free from his contract marriage.I breathe in, breathe out for a few seconds before I summon my courage from the depths of my mind. I begin with my right hand on the door handle; I grasp it, getting ready to step in.After a few more seconds, I grasped the handle, twisted it to open, followed by a loud creak of the door. "Mr. George," I mumbled. Immediately, I stepped inside unexpectedly; my tiny voice echoed in the dimly lit room of his study.I never thought of the repercussions behind my sudden appearance in the room. "I forget he has a gun and could kill me," I thought, but it was too late, and I'm already inside.A wave of shock washes over Mr. George as I step in unannounced when he is in a long meeting with two strange men, both dressed in the same white

    Juliet's POVI would be lying to my heart if I pretended that Olivia's present didn't make me feel different from the hellhole I've been held in for months now; her present was more than enough. Even if Mark didn't show up late today, I would have gone back to that mansion with a happy heart."Juliet, you look pale. What's wrong? Olivia asked, and I was left speechless, not because of Mark's absence but because I don't know where to begin my unfortunate story.As we sat surrounded by the eerie silence of a once bustling space, Olivia's eyes seemed to hold a thousand tears. Her shoulders slumped, her head bowed, and her hands cradled her face as if trying to hold together the shattered pieces of her heart.I moved beside her, offering a comforting presence, but even my gentle gestures couldn't lift the darkness that had settled over Olivia."Olivia, you aren't looking that good either," I twisted her question to her, as I fixed my worried gaze on her reddish pale eyes; it was as if she

Olivia questioned, her voice low yet urgent,"Yes, he did give her, but the story crashed on her," Mark finally broke his silence, and the atmosphere became more filled with tensions; my mind and heart ached when he spoke."My stepfather manipulated her, and she fell into his trap, the same trap that got my mom into a coma," he declared strongly, his deep voice was etched with the truth, and then he got his heart consumed by anger, and he smashed his hand on the plastic table so hard, tossing the paper cups up and down like the law of karma,"Mr. George is your stepfather?... But how?" Olivia still hung in the dark house of my current situation. "Mrs. Claire, Mr. George's wife, is Mark's biological mother," I explained, sharing a picture with her confused mind. She has just found out that I've fallen for the billionaire's stepson, and I don't know how to survive the jungle I found

    Tracy's POVI was all alone in the dimly lit room, with all my attention caught by a dancing choreography competition displayed on the 45-inch TV hung on the wall opposite Mia's giant bed."Oh, ouch," I giggle and chuckle when one of the participants slips and falls on her ass, which leads to her disqualification. "Ahh, ahh! They tried," I commended the poor, innocent lady and her team; they must've spent all their time and energy to get to that stage just to make a mistake and slip to be disqualified.As I focused my cool gaze on the show, with a well-designed paper bag filled with milky popcorn placed in between my thighs, and a chilled bottle of orange juice lay innocently on the small wooden table beside me, Beside it was my smartphone, which I neglected ever since the program kicked off. Unknowingly it has been ringing, and I've missed 5 calls. The calls were from a private number, so I didn't bother checking, even as it kept on ringing and vibrating the table and the bed I sat

    Mia's POV"I nearly lost my life under your knife," I grumbled at her as she forced herself up from behind the sofa."I'm so sorry, Mia, I thought you were somebody else," she explained with her voice barely audible under her heavy breathing.My heart is still panting for brief, dangerous performance by Tracia: "Come, come, sit over here." I patted her shoulder and waist on the sofa and rushed to my small kitchen to get her a cup of water."Here, take this to cool your mind." She stretched her arm, collected the glass cup, and drank it at once like a camel drinking from a pond."Ah!" She sighed and collapsed her back against the sofa, putting her hand across her face."Why are you holding a knife?" I asked, my voice remaining audible and serious; she fixed her gaze on me, scanning the sofa, pushing my body aside.Until her hand felt her phone under my ass, "Oh sorry, I didn't see...," I pleaded, but she didn't even mind; instead, Tracy gradually unlocked her phone, scrolled up, and sh

"I've told you not to put on such an old model wristwatch whenever you are coming to my place, I blasted him, but unknowingly he still hasn't gotten my points. It took him a few seconds to comprehend that I was referring to the wristwatch on his fat wrist, and when he did, he wore a pretentious smile on his face.Harrison remains my eye wherever I'm blind; he remains my ears wherever I'm deaf; he's my voice wherever I'm dumb.

I knew I had to do something about it faster.As I continue to ponder his sudden confidence, even after I shoot Diana beside him, thinking it will scare the earth out of him,"After all, Claire had been in a coma for a whole good month now, and I'm the only rightful owner of the company," I declared, my voice barely above a whisper, then I took a quick glance at the mirror, checked my face, and then continued, "Why's Jones not scared

When George shot Maria in the second leg again, “Ehhhh!" she groaned in pain, her eyes laced with tears streaming down her face, blood gushing out from her two legs.George sneered, "You'd better do that before you lose your friend."

It's not going to be easy, but we're on it."I smiled, thinking, "I know it's not easy.

I overheard them discussing the multi-million-worth of diamonds that belong to my father."Khalid added, "They're into diamond mining, coal mining, prostitution, and illegal drugs, just like George.

I muttered to myself, smashing my hand on my face. "Just give me some time, guys. Give me some time, and I'll still get the diamond for you.""It's high time you gave us the diamond. It's high time you returned our money to us. This isn't a joke anymore. We've given you enough time—more than three months—to get the diamond for us, and we've paid an advance payment of fifty percent each." Walter Reed's voice was laced with anger.Caleb added, "Who the fuck are you? Are you going to refund the money or give us the diamond?

They played their roles, joking and chasing each other, making it look real.After a few seconds, some men pulled up beside them.

The other two grabbed Juliet, holding her at

"If we're finding it difficult to nail Mr. George, then I think the only solution is to use his own tactics against him."Her explanation was laced with confusion, and I remained silent, trying to understand what she meant."Juliet, what do you mean?" I asked, trying to clarify."What I'm trying to say is that we need to use his own weapon against him." Why don't we turn his own game back on him?" Juliet asked, her eyes sparkling with determination.I was still confused, and Juliet could see it. She smiled, stood up, and walked towards the mini-bar. She poured herself a glass of red wine and handed me another."What I mean, Mark, is that what if I become one of his subjects? After all, he's still in the business of prostitution and exploiting young women. Why don't I use that opportunity to get close to him?" J

We cautiously made our way inside, our guns at the ready."Stay alert," I whispered to my team, my eyes scanning the dimly lit interior.
