Love is patientObsession is crazy,In love, we careObsessed we tear...OluwatoyosiEthan's POV "Call the marketing team, and tell them that if their strategy isn't run by me in the next two days, they are all fired," I told my secretary through gritted teeth.I could feel my head throbbing and these constant calls and meetings weren’t helping at all."We can't trust any of them, Ethan. Someone is giving our competitors information that's very valuable; we need to be very smart about this" I sighed knowing Joel was right.Someone was trying to throw my marketing team off balance. I rubbed my temples gently trying to stop the headache from becoming worse. I had to resume work immediately after the trip to Paris and Precious had been considerate."You’re right. I will get someone to spy on things there and personally oversee their strategy. I don't know what they are trying to prove but it won't work with me" Joel's eyebrows furrowed at my tone but I could care less, once I find out
"Why didn't you tell me you slept with her," she asked dangerously calmly. I never knew I could be scared of a woman's tone before. I slumped in my chair defeated."I never slept with Brittany; I promise you that. I may have taken her on a few dates but I have never even thought of her sexually. You have to believe me Ife." I explained in a tired voice."I believe you, but answer me this... Have you ever slept with anyone else since we got together? and I'm not talking about Paris" I shook my head immediately."No, I have not. Since I met you, I have only wanted you. I am sorry I didn't tell you about her" I pleaded for her to listen to me, and she seemed to think about it but nodded and smiled at me.I sighed in relief because I didn't know what I would have done if she were angry with me."I believe you and I trust you" she got behind my chair and massaged my temples."I'm starving" she laughed out loud."Let's eat before it gets cold, I made lasagna" I pulled her to me and placed a
In just twenty-four hours, Many things can happen...In a situation where it's calm before the storm,We must be prepared...So when it hits us unexpectedly,We would be geared.OluwatoyosiPrecious POV Black! That was all I saw. I tried to move but my hands were tied behind me.Where was I?Just like that, under a day, I was already kidnapped. I thought these kinds of things only happened in novels. I always knew the world of a billionaire was dangerous.How I ended up here? Well, let me take you through my worst day ever.Twenty-hours ago:"Marley, I told you we are not going to a strip club" this was the eighth time I'd told her and I was becoming frustrated.We met Marley three weeks ago during a presentation and I just asked her if she wanted to come over for movies with Funke and me, but unfortunately, she wanted us to go to a strip club."It would be fun, loosen up a bit" she whined."We are not going and that's final" she huffed and left for her next class
Precious POV I took a cab to Ethan's company and dried my tears. After thirty minutes, we pulled over. Putting off negative vibes, I walked in with a smile. "Good afternoon, Rachael" the receptionist smiled and greeted back. She was a nice young lady. I moved into the elevator and pressed the 10th floor. Stepping out of the elevator, I made my way to Ethan's office and knocked three times. Hearing a gruff come in, I went inside. "I brought lunch," I said with a smile on my face but my smile faltered when I looked up to see Ethan looking at me like I was in trouble. "Sit down" his deep voice became suddenly scary. I took my seat and analyzed his face. He showed no emotion and he had a dangerous glint in his eyes. What could this be about? "Ethan, what's wrong?" I said softly knowing that was how to cool his temper as I analyzed the situation. Nothing seemed odd, did I do something? "What is the meaning of this" I gasped out loud as I saw an article with the headlines: "Mr. Whi
The ones who hurt innocents payThe ones who destroy can change,Mistakes are what make us humanBut forgiveness is what changes the plan.©Oluwatoyosi Precious POV A jolt of electricity through my body startled me awake. My vision was blurry as I tried to take in where I was. I couldn't move my hands or my legs, it felt as though they were both tied up. "Welcome back to reality shorty" a man who seemed familiar to me spoke in a sickly-sweet voice. I turned my head but a sharp pain made me wince and I looked down at my white top, to see that, it had dried blood on them. Wait, is that my blood? I turned my head to the side, trying to figure out where the hell, I was, but my vision was blurry that I couldn’t make anything out of it. Where was I? Was this some kind of joke? I tried to juggle the rope that held my hands behind my back but it was tied stiff. It felt like the ropes they used to tie horses to a pole. I squinted my eyes and saw that I was seated on a wooden chair and
There was no way Ethan could have done something like that. Shawn may have his own story but Ethan also has the right to defend himself. I chuckled silently at my mindset. Here I was, defending Ethan in my heart when he couldn’t even defend me to my face. Shawn was knee bent looking at me sinisterly. His eyes held so much anger and pain. I knew Ethan had had one-night stands before but I didn't know he destroyed their lives after. But could I even believe what Shawn was saying? "I can imagine that very well," I said looking at David who stood emotionless beside me. "Liar, no one understands. I looked up to her, she was strong but even she was broken by him. She fell prey to his player ways. So, I devised a plan. I was angry and in pain. I have no parents, and I had to take care of my little sister. I worked my way up and gained the trust of everyone. No one ever suspects the innocent one, right? I waited for him to fall deeply in love with someone. Then I met David at the party a
Dwelling on the pastCan eat us up inside and out,But moving on,That is what makes us survivors... @Oluwatoyosi Ethan's POV "What do you mean you can't find her" I boomed at Jones. He has been trying to find Precious's location and, the GPS has been destroyed. "Her phone was found on the pavement where she was taken. It was smashed to pieces. If we are sure that it's Shawn and David who took her then we know that she would be kept in an abandoned warehouse because according to the info I got about Shawn's properties, he owns an apartment for himself and bought another for his sister. His parents owned warehouses where they did their illegal deeds but it's been abandoned since their death. However, I've been able to get the address where Marley is currently staying" Jones explained. "We should start by searching all the warehouses you found. Agent Wallace and Carol will go with Joel to question Marley" I nodded at the middle-aged captain of the NYPD. I figured it would be best
Funke’s POV (continues) "She left us because of him. She was depressed all because a freaking guy didn't like her back. She killed herself because that same freaking guy slept with her and broke her. What do you expect us to do? Move on like the rest freaking world, well sorry bitches but he's gonna get what's coming to him. He's gonna beg on his knees as he watches us kill her" To say derangement was an understatement, she was insane. But I understood her pain. She only knew what her sister told her. She must have been in pain to see her sister like that and not be able to do anything. So, I bent down to her level so we could see eye to eye. "I understand. I understand what you're going through. It must have been difficult to see your sister like that. You must have felt scared, angry, and hurt because she was hurting herself and the bastard that destroyed her was living happily" I said calmly and she looked at me with tears in her eyes. "It was freaking painful. She would cry al
