“Are you sure you are going to be okay in there?”He asked for the twentieth time as we rode to the bank in his car.I rolled my eyes at him.“Come on, don't tell me you're scared.”“You should know I am. Now that you're the almighty Zayn's fiancee, only someone in his right senses will be scared.”I chuckled and glance out from the window.“I wonder why you're scared. But don't worry, I got this okay.”There was total silence till we pulled up in the bank. “I guess we are here.” I muttered slowly using my eyes to look around the whole building.“Josh turned off the ignition and turned to face me. “I think you should know the straight path that leads to the dickhead office.”I stifled in a laugh. Obviously, Josh and the CEO of (DFB) would never be in the friendly adult zone.“Once we get inside. Just go straight to the third elevator to your left and punch on the fifth floor, it's rarely ever used. Take the second turning to your right and you're right at his office.”I nodded my head s
“Hey, you got to be kidding me right?" He asked with his eyes wide open.I shook my head and placed my hands on the table.We were currently at Eli's where I had earlier asked him to meet me. Maybe he could help me out in some areas, I don't really trust him.“Here's your order.” Eli beamed placing down each what we both requested.I flashed him a smile “Thank you.” “Don't sweat it pretty.” he patted Josh on his shoulders and slithered back to his work.“Is there something you aren't telling me ?” his voice came out low and hoarse forcing me to look back at him.A throaty laugh bubbled out of my throat. “Do you feel like I'm hiding something from you?"“Well... Not really, but all of a sudden you come to me asking for a layout of a bank. Not any bank but DFB.”I took a quick glance around the cafe looking if anyone was paying attention to our conversation. Seeing none, I leaned over on the table pushing my cup of ice cappuccino aside.“There's absolutely no reason for you to panic Jo
As we walked back to the mansion, I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease. I expected to feel lighter and more free after denouncing every strings attaching me to my mother, but that isn't what I felt in my body.The feeling was more like I added a heavy weight to my previous burden.Not to talk about Amad's piercing gaze which had left me feeling uncomfortable, and I couldn't help but wonder why the heck he continued glaring at me till he was out of sight."Why was Amad staring at me like that?" I asked Zayn, trying to sound casual.He raised an eyebrow. “How do you mean?”I shrugged my shoulders. “In a creepy manner that's beginning to annoy me somehow.”Zayn chuckled. "He can be a bit... intense. But he means well."I wasn't so sure. There was something about Amad that didn't sit right with me.I know he never liked me, but recently his behavior was becoming a little bit suspicious. But I can only hope he means well as Zayn said.As we entered the mansion, Amad was already sitt
“Hey what are you up to?” her sweet angelic voice asked as she hugged me from behind.After we've settled our differences I forced her to pack her things to my room.She refused at first but I finally succeeded in convincing her.“Just taking care of some office affairs. Go back to sleep, I will join you briefly.” I turned my head and kissed her.“I'm not feeling sleepy. I slept all through the morning remember.” she pulled over and sat beside me dragging the laptop from my front.She peered at the screen and gave me a 'I don't understand you' look.“You want to buy diamond finance bank?” (DFB)“Yes pumpkin. I intend on buying it.”“But, considering the fact that it's a kind of heritage bank. Won't it be hard and tough?”“Don't worry. I will scale through.” I reassured her.“Will you need my help?” she asked in a worried tone.“Time will tell. For now, we need to sleep.” I shut the laptop down before she could make any protesting sound.I moved up dragging her hands with me. “I'm not
“Just kill me and get it over with already.” the bastard sitting before me groaned out In frustration.But no, I can't end his life just yet. People like him don't deserve easy death, they deserve a painful and slow one.At first when I entered his prison, I could hardly recognize him due to the amount of beating he had received when I was away tending to Kacie.Trust Amad to do a satisfying job on an offender. His body screams of excessive beating just the way I love it.He was strapped tightly to a chair with chains around his legs and wrist. His left eyes was swollen and his nose broken. He had a very deep cut on his right thigh. I smirk In satisfaction.A long table was kept closely to him so he could sleep whenever he wishes to. It was very considerate of Amad to think of his sleep, left for me, he wouldn't know what it feels like to fall asleep again.Well maybe eternal sleep.But judging from how swollen his eyes are, I doubt if he was able to have a nap. Not like I cared an
I spoke icily into the mouthpiece.I hung up after passing out my orders. I have been after this particular contract for seven months to be precise.Since I got wind of my uncle's intentions behind the shadows I decided to strike a deal with with Big life media conglomerate. BLM for short, which I will officially become their CEO in the next forty minutes.That's who I am. I have the power to get any work done at the comfort zone of my home.Normally, it wasn't supposed to take as much as seven months. But my bastard of an uncle was a step ahead of me almost giving me a hard time but thanks to my spies I was three step ahead of him.To get something, you have to stake something. Nothing goes for nothing.With an air of victory I walked back to the dining room but didn't expect to see what I saw.What gave her the nerves to leave the dining while I'm not done eating yet ?."Hey you." I beckoned on the maid clearing the table.Where's my fiancee?." "I don't really know sir, but I thin
"What are you doing here." His thick cold voice boomed behind me jolting me out from my reverie.I slowly turned to face him. I hadn't expected him back so soon, when I woke up from my long sleep he wasn't in the bed.My palms felt sweaty and cold against each other. I'm sure he's pissed off seeing me in his gallery.Before I could compose a very convincing excuse, he had kept the laptop in his hands on the bed and raised me up like I was a compressed air.He carried me away straight to my room and put me on the bed."Where did you go to ? You weren't on the bed with me when I woke up." I asked him slowly.He let go of me and stood up from the bed turning his back on me.I stared at him speechlessly.What is he trying to do ? Didn't he get my question.I was already trying to throw the same question at him but stopped when he began saying something."I went to take care of an urgent matter. And also forget about what happened yesterday.""Don't start nursing the thought that somethin
"Are you coming with me?." I asked him immediately we step into the elevator."Nah. I will pass, the torture they received from me is enough.""I might end up blowing their brains out if I should set my eyes on them. He said with a hint of anger in his voice.I stared at him unbelievably. It's so unlike Amad to miss something like this.One reason why I always entrust my prisoners to Amad, he tortures them to a near death state."Speaking of which. Did you notice anything suspicious?." "No. But there's a possibility he would strike when he sees you let your guard down." He answered twisting the button on his shirt."I ain't daft, I know what sort of human he is.""Tighten the security around the storehouse and this very mansion itself, and also keep a keen eye on my fiancee."I paused suddenly already regretting my decision to leave her all alone in the room.She was fast asleep when I got a call from Amad saying the prisoners were causing a nuisance.Come off it Zayn. You don't like
