“Assemble all the maids, the chauffeur, the gardener, and everyone that works at this house,” Brandon said to Alex who nodded in response before rushing to call all the workers. It wasn’t long before all the workers had assembled. They were a total of 20 in numbers. “What are you trying to do?” Micheal asked.“I think one of them is acting as a spy for my father,” Brandon said in response and then moved toward them and stood in front of them. “I’m going to ask you guys a few questions and I want the truth, or else I’m going to punish you all for it, and you would all lose your jobs,” Brandon said and they all nodded with their heads bowed while shivering. They were all scared for their life. “Who is giving my father information about everything that is going on in this house?” Brandon asked and they all kept quiet. Brandon stared at them for a few seconds waiting for them to speak but they didn’t. He wasn’t expecting them to speak either. He hates what he is about to do now.“Mrs
“No! No! No!!, you can’t turn yourself over to him. You won’t do that. I have got this all figured out, I just need a little more time” Brandon said as he brought out his phone and quickly dialed Liam’s number.He walked away from Hannah and Arianna immediately Liam answered the phone call.“What did you find Liam? I hope it’s something that can help stop him” Brandon said and he heard Liam sigh.“You won’t believe what I found, Brandon” Liam said and he raised his eyebrows wondering what he had found.“Your father has another family in Mexico. He has a wife, two daughters, and a little boy” Liam said and Brandon became numb at what he just heard. His father left them only to start a family in another place, he thought, and just then he saw Jessica climbing down the stairs with Matthew beside her. He wondered how she would feel when she found out their father had another family elsewhere.“Are you there, Brandon?” Liam asked when he didn’t hear any more sound.“Yeah, of course I am
Meanwhile, Wilson is seen in his hotel roomWaiting for Stone to call him that the job has been done, that Sandra is dead and he has the octuplets.Just then he heard a knock on his door.“Come in,” he said and Stone walked in with John and Steven.“Jefe (Boss)” they all echoed at once and with a sad and fearful look on their face and bowed their heads.Wilson wondered why they had that look on their faces, it was then it dawned on him that they failed. Whenever he sends them on errands and they do it successfully, they always come back looking cheerful. When they fail, they would always look so sad and scared and that was the look they had on. Which means only one thing, they failed. The look on Wilson’s face became an angry one. How could they fail him, this was his chance to get back on Brandon and Arianna for challenging him.“¿Cómo pudieron fallarme y dejarlos escapar? (How could you guys fail me and let them escape? ) “ he yelled and they all felt cold shivers run down their
A black car screeched to a halt in front of a house. Arianna was pulled out of the car and dragged inside the house.They dragged her into a room with just a bed and a wardrobe, and threw her on the bed. She winced in pain and sat up properly on the bed, giving the guys who had brought her In, a deadly look.She was gonna make sure she torture them the moment she got out of this place, she thought angrily.Just then the Devil she’s been expecting walked in. Wilson.“Hello Ex wife” Wilson muttered with a smile on his face. She shot him a killing look.Wilson sighed and turned to his men, asking them to excuse him and they nodded in response before walking out of the room.He locked the door behind him and then turned to Arianna who had now stood up from the bed.“Where is the child? You already have me now let the child go” Arianna said and Wilson hummed and took a step towards her while she took a step backward.He brought out his phone and dialed a number and then ended it, just then
Chapter 180Hannah had just woken up and had gone to her kid's room, they were still asleep. She sighed softly as she watched them. She was glad they were safe, she just couldn’t wait for all this to be over and for everything to return to the way they were.She walked out of their room, closed the door behind her, and decided to go check on Arianna. The moment she got close to Arianna’s room, she saw Micheal sitting by the door. “Hey,” she muttered and Micheal raised his head and saw Hannah staring at him with a smile on her face. “Hey,” Micheal muttered in response.“You slept here?” Hannah asked and sighed and nodded. Hannah had never met anyone as loyal as Micheal. He was so loyal to her and would do anything to protect her. Hannah smiled and was about to walk inside her room when Micheal told her that Arianna had gone downstairs to get water. The moment Micheal said that to Hannah, he paused for some seconds. Arianna had gone downstairs to get water and it’s been up to an ho
Chapter 181 “Take the child to her mother,” Brandon said and made to give the child to one of the security guards but she refused to go with anyone. For the past few days, all she’d been seeing was strangers who kept threatening her and making her cry, and for the first time in days she had seen someone she recognized and now she feels safe with him. She wasn’t gonna leave his sight, she was so scared. “It’s fine, you are safe now,” Brandon said as he patted her back and touched her hair. He decided to take the child to her mom by himself. He walked inside the house with Micheal and Hannah behind him and asked one of the guards to go call Mrs Mary. It wasn’t long before Mrs Mary was seen climbing down the stairs with her swollen eyes. She had cried all night as she felt so scared, she felt she had lost her little princess for good. But just then she saw her daughter in Brandon’s arms. “Mila” she called and the little girl who was in Brandon’s arms raised her head and saw her
Wilson stared at Arianna and didn’t say a word and just then he walked out of the room. And there he met Stone standing outside the room.“I want you to reach out to my wife and the kids and find out if they are right,” Wilson said to Stone and walked away from him.After which Stone brought out his phone and dialed One of the guard's numbers whose name is Pote. Immediately he answered the phone, he sounded so nervous.“What’s wrong?” Stone asked. “It’s Jefe’s (Boss) Wife and kids, they are nowhere to be found,” The bodyguard said and Stone opened his eyes wide in shock.“What do you mean they are nowhere to be found? What the hell are you talking about?” Stone asked “I don’t know how it happened, I slept and woke up and they were gone,” Pote said and Stone sighed softly.“Just keep searching for them,” Stone said and with that, he hung up. He stared at the phone in his hands and then walked down the hallway that led to Wilson’s room.He knows how much Wilson cherishes his family an
“I have your family with me right now,” Brandon said as he put the phone on loudspeaker so Emilia could hear every one of their conversations…“You are bluffing,” Wilson said and Brandon chuckled “Maybe you would love to hear the sound of your beautiful wife,” Brandon said and passed the phone to Emilia.“Wilson, Wilson” Emilia called and Wilson felt his heart break into pieces as he heard the sound of Emilia’s voice.She sounded so scared. Brandon took the phone from her.“Now you know I’m not bluffing,” Brandon said and Wilson groaned angrily.“I’m going to kill you and everyone you’ve ever met” Wilson yelled over the phone and Brandon scoffed. “You do nothing, you have two hours to bring back my mom to the mansion, two hours or you never hear from them again,” Brandon said and Wilson chuckled.Just then Brandon heard the sound of Arianna whimpering. Brandon frowned.“You touch a hair on her head and I promise you, you would never see your family again,” Brandon said as he tighten
It was morning and Hannah had woken up early. She woke up feeling energized and all.She had brought out her laptop and sent messages to all the members of the board except Brandon that there was going to be a Meeting today.After which she got dressed. She made sure she looked her best and dressed in a way Brandon would stare at her and would not be able to resist her looks.After which she hopped in her car, and zoomed off to the company. Her car came to a stop at the company, she walked straight to her office.A lot of people seemed to be surprised to see her, they probably thought she was there to hand over the position to Isabella Edward but they didn't know she was there to take over. She checked her time and saw it was time for the meeting. She took her laptop and some important files, after which she walked out of her office and locked the door to the office, taking the key with her so that no one would be able to get in. She walked to the board room and met everyone sitting
Hannah pulled away from the kiss and glared at his charming eyes. She glared at his wet plump lips from the kiss and then walked away from him. Brandon made to move towards her again but she shifted back. Just then Brandon heard his phone ring, he brought out his phone and checked his caller’s ID and then answered the phone call.“I'm on my way,” he said and ended the call and then glared at Hannah one more time before walking out of the room, closing the door behind him. She wondered who had called him. The thought of Isabella being the one who called him made her want to puke. She wondered where Isabella had come from, she was out of town the last time she checked and this was Linda’s plan all this while, Hannah scoffed and shook her head.She moved towards the door to see if it was locked from the outside but it wasn't. She opened the door and walked out of the room. She decided to go downstairs and drink water.She walked downstairs and to her greatest surprise she saw Linda in
Hannah had just gotten home from the event. She didn’t waste any time, instead, she walked straight to her room upstairs and brought out her clothes from the wardrobe.She brought out her luggage and started arranging her clothes in it and suddenly the door to the room opened and Brandon walked in.“You left like that, we were supposed to be in the event together,” he paused when he saw luggage on the bed.“What’s going on here?” Brandon asked in deep shock as he glared at Hannah who was packing her clothes.Hannah raised her head, glared at him, and looked away, proceeding with what she was doing without saying a word.“You are leaving?” Brandon asked and Hannah still didn’t say a word.“I’m talking to you, are you leaving?” He asked again, probably not believing what was happening right in front of him.“I’m no longer needed in the company Brandon, you kicked me out and made your ex-girlfriend the new COO. What do you need me for?” Hannah asked as she raised her head and glared at h
“What?” Hannah opened her mouth wide in shock at what Brandon had said. He was publicly asking her to step down as the COO because he knew if he asked her in private she would not and doing it in public in front of everyone would leave her no choice but to step down. Hannah glared back at the crowd, she caught a glimpse of Linda at the coroner of the hall with an evil smirk on her face. She knew this was all Linda’s doings. She wondered what she had told Brandon that made him want her to step down.Hannah who was already pissed tried moving away from the stage but the Brandon tightened his grip on her wrist and held her from moving, while he kept smiling.“I know you all are wondering who the new COO would be. Well, she’s someone you all know, my long-time friend and a family too, Isabella Edward ....” Brandon muttered and Isabella stepped on the stage with a broad smile on her face. Hannah opened her eyes wide in shock, she couldn’t believe what she was seeing. “What the hell is g
It was morning and Hannah was awoken by the sound of her phone ringing tone. With her sleeping eyes, she picked up her phone and answered it without checking the caller’s ID.“Hello Ma’am,” she heard Liam’s voice from the other side of the phone. She quickly opened her eyes wide.“Liam,” she muttered as she sat up properly on the bed.“Ma’am, the event is about to begin and we are waiting for you…” Liam muttered and Hannah who was confused had asked what event.“The company’s 25th anniversary,“ Liam muttered and Hannah opened her mouth wide in shock. She had completely forgotten about the event. She was so distracted with everything happening around her that she didn’t know the event was today and she wasn’t even prepared.“We are waiting for you Ma'am” Liam who didn’t hear Hannah’s voice anymore muttered jolting Hannah out of her thoughts again.“Of course, I’m on my way, Liam,” she said and ended the call: she checked the time on her phone and saw it was past 12.“Shit!” She muttere
“I didn’t, Linda showed me these pictures and told me you are having an affair, I do not want to believe it…” he muttered softly.“Then you shouldn’t…, can’t you see your mom is trying to come between us. You should do your research before believing what you are being told”“And I did my research and found out you truly bought the condo unit. Are you planning on leaving me or divorcing me?”“No, I can explain that…”“No Hannah, I do not want an explanation, save it…”“I don’t know what Linda told you but I expect you not to believe them…”“Oh please, save it. She was right, You’ve been playing me this whole time. Did you ever love me like you said?…” “Can you hear yourself right now Brandon?” She muttered, staring at him with a shock-filled expression.“I’m out of here, have a good night,” Hannah muttered as she took her bag and car keys and walked past Brandon and he didn’t try to stop her from leaving. She walked out of the house. She entered her car, ignited the engine, and drove
It was afternoon and Brandon was back from the meeting he had gone to. Hannah, who had received the information that he was back, went to his office.She planted a soft knock on the door and pushed the door open. There she met Brandon going through some files on his table.“Brandon!!” Hannah called and he hummed without staring at her face. Hannah paused for a second waiting for him to raise his head and at least acknowledge her presence but it seems she was waiting in vain.She then proceeded to what she had come for.“Brandon, your mom, she needs to be out of this company. She just fired two of our employees today. She’s putting this company at risk…” Hannah paused waiting for him to speak but he didn’t say a word neither did he raise his head.Hannah gritted her teeth. She took a deep breath and sighed.“Brandon I am talking to you,” Hannah yelled and Brandon raised his head immediately.“Were you even listening to me?” Hannah asked with a look of surprise on her face. “Yes, I was
Meanwhile, Hannah stared at Brandon looking surprised at his decision.She sighed softly. Brandon was joking, there was no way Linda would work at the company. She would not allow it, never.It was morning the next day and Hannah had gotten dressed up for work. She had left in her car all alone since Brandon left early because he needed to see a client, who was waiting for him at the company early.The moment she arrived at the company, she saw all the workers gossiping and everywhere looked ununiformed. But the moment they saw her, everywhere became as silent as hell.She wondered what was going on.“Welcome ma’am,”“Welcome ma’am” they all muttered while they bowed their head and she nodded. She needed no soothsayer to tell her something was going on in the company.She called one of the employees and asked her to come with her to her office. The employee nodded and walked Behind as they walked to her office.The moment they got to her office, she dropped her bag on the table and tu
Meanwhile, Hannah had gotten home early from work. She had left Brandon at the company because he needed to be somewhere with his assistant, Liam.They needed to see the ongoing project on their new site.Hannah had gotten home and taken her bath after which she had prepared dinner. There weren’t many maids in the house, just Alex the butler, and two other housekeepers. Hannah had dismissed the other to go back to their family and children since it was a holiday period. The others at the house didn’t have any family to return to so they had to stay in Colby’s mansion.She walked inside the kitchen and prepared dinner after which she set the table. While she was setting the table, she heard the front door open.She raised her head and saw Lucas walk in. He wasn’t alone. He was with no one else but Linda.Hannah swallowed into nothing as Linda gave her a strange smile and walked towards her.“Hey, I didn’t know you would be coming,” Hannah said with a smile on her face.“And I didn’t k
