Hailey was in shock by how rude Jayden was. She expected any behaviour from him because Eva had told her a lot about him and how ruthless he can be. She knew she was going to have a physical encounter with him one way or the other but she didn't expect it to be on her first day.She left the living room with a frown on her face, feeling so embarrassed. "He demands that you do it yourself Jessica." Hailey told Jessica without looking at her the moment she stepped into the kitchen. "He said that?" Jessica asked surprisingly."Well, yes he did." She responded angrily which could be easy detected from her tone."I guess people have to learn the hard way." Khole said, smiling profusely and withholding the laugh threatening to burst out."You think this is funny?" Hailey asked, moving closer to her slowly."No! Not here, Not now please." Jessica immediately said to them, pushing Hailey backwards as she took a few step forward but stopped.She took in a deep breath with her two eyes closed,
Jessica came into the dining room with Hailey and Khole. The aroma of freshly cooked pasta wafted as they entered making their mouth watering but they didn't want to show it and kept on discussing among themselves which got Jayden angry. "Why can't they keep shut? Can't they see someone is before them?" He said inwardly, staring at each of them one after the other but none of them noticed the look on his face.Jessica carried a large, steaming hot serving pasta, adorned with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and a few fresh basil leaves. The eight men seated around the table looked up from their conversations, the moment she placed it on the table with their their faces lighting up with anticipation."Sorry for the delay." She said and they only nodded their heads in unison like they wear being controlled or were suddenly dumb.As Jessica began to serve the pasta, the men watched with interest. She expertly twirled the pasta onto each plate, adding a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and a driz
Jayden turned his head slowly and kept his eyes fixed on Vic who became uncomfortable and quickly leaned his back on the chair, avoiding to take another glance at him. He immediately regretted ever asking him any questions. "Back to our previous discussion." Jayden said, looking at them and the all seated uprightly to listen to him. After about an hour, they were finally done and all stood up to leave as Jayden escorted them outside. Jayden got back into the house and began heading to his room, he looked around trying to see if he would find Jessica but there was no sight of her around. "Is she in the kitchen?" He asked inwardly, sliding his right hand into his pocket, pondering on if he should go and check up on her in the kitchen. "No no! I can't go in there." He whispered to himself while climbing up the stairs. Just then he heard footsteps approaching, he looked up and his eyes jammed with Jessica who wasn't looking okay. He couldn't figure out the look on her face yet, he was
Jayden stared at Jessica, he was speechless and did know what to say. He wanted to just walk towards the door, open it and let her out but he couldn't bring himself to. He could agree with the fact that he hadn't been treating her right recently because he was angry with himself, but today's incident wasn't included."Really? Is that what you think?" He asked in a very soft tone."Yes, wasn't it so obvious?' She replied, turning her head slowly to look at him and their eyes met. "Do you mind opening the door now, I need to leave.* "What if I don't?' He asked , looking directly into her eyes."What do you mean, a deal is a deal. You said if I tell you what was wrong, you would open the door and let me leave." Jessica said out loud, with her eyes widened."How do you get to pretend so well? Would you deny the fact that you want to stay here with me?" He said, moving closer to her as she immediately movies backwards, looking away from him."You wish. Maybe before, but not anymore." She
Jessica couldn't fanthom whatever Jayden was trying to do and how he was going to make things up ad she pondered on if she should trust him this time or just expect the worst instead in order not to get any further heart break."I just hope you aren't planning anything funny this time Jayden." she said as they descended down the stairs."Anything funny?" Jayden asked, turning his head slowly to look at her with a look of confusion written on his face, while noticing she was still struggling to free herself from his grab but he wasn't letting go of her anytime soon. "Yeah, you heard and when I say funny, I don't literally mean funny, you should understand better." she said, but this time got no response from him.Jessica noticed they were heading towards the outside door which got her even moe scared. "What could be going on in Jayden's mind?" She thought as they slowly approched his car."Open the gates." He shouted at rhe gateman, who obeyed instantly.Jayden opened the car door,ins
To her utmost surprise, Jayden had just parked in a very big mall which was one of the biggest mall in the whole city and rumours has it that only high-class people come here to shop. While she was younger, she had always seen this mall and always told herself she would go there to shop one day, but never she realize that she was going to eventually go even with everything that had happened to her. "Jessica, Jessica, Jessica, you can come down now." Jayden said.."Yeah, what? Huh?" She responded, realizing she was so lost in her thoughts and didn't even know when Jayden was calling her."I said you can come down now, except you want me to carry you, I wouldn't mind doing that." He replied."What, no way I want that." She said, stretching her legs outside but suddenly stopped. "Wait, I can't go in there like this, people would stare and me and some might even take pictures." She said with a worrisome look on her face, looking around and noticing that some people outside had their eyes
Jessica was so angry, she wanted Lois to go through every pain she went through and even more. She wanted her to suffer so much that she would wish she was dead instead. However, she couldn't allow it, she won't be comfortable seeing someone suffering and going through pain. She knew Lois was only begging her like this because of Jayden and his threats which he fulfills without hesitation or remorse."You are scared for your life, not like you are actually sorry, lying bitch " Jessica said to her, kicking away her hands which was grabbing her legs firmly. "Let go of me, you disgust me please." "So what do you want now? I'm ready to do whatever you say, your wish is my command ma'am."Jayden said, moving closer to Lois who was on the floor, pleading intensely.."Kill her." Jessica said and looked away. ."There you go." Jayden responded, slowly sliding in is hands into his back pocket bringing out a pistol "No please Jessica, you can't allow me die like this, I know you still have con
"I didn't mean to hm." "No, it's fine. You said your mind anyways at least now I know what you think of me." Jayden said as he opened the boot a d began putting the shopping bags into it. "Jayden, I just." "One I'm done we are getting back inside. Your hair needs to be touched and maybe a little make up of you want, then we can go out for dinner." He interrupted her, focusing on what he was doing. He realized she was about to talk again and immediately said, "No Jessica, I don't want to hear anything you have to say.""But you can't be angry with me. We are going out for dinner and you are mad at me." She said in a calm voice, moving closer to him"I'm not.""It doesn't seem like it."Just then the sound of tires screeching loudly was heard and both Jessica and Jayden turned their head backwards to look. Suddenly, without warning, the vehicle slammed on its brakes, coming to an abrupt halt in the middle of the road. Before Jayden could take a closer look at the car, a man sitting b
The gates, more like flimsy decorations than actual security, crumpled like paper under the weight of Jayden’s SUV. He didn’t even bother stopping; he just plowed right through, the twisted metal screaming a prelude to the carnage that was about to unfold. He jumped out, gun already in hand, the adrenaline pumping through him like a shot of pure fire. He wasn’t thinking straight, not really. Just pure, unadulterated rage.“Let’s go!” he yelled at his men, who were already spilling out of the other vehicles, weapons raised. The air crackled with tension, the quiet of the forest about to be shattered.George’s guards were scrambling, clearly caught off guard. They were expecting a quiet getaway, not a full-scale assault. They were outmatched, outgunned, and they knew it. Jayden moved like a man possessed, taking down two guards before they even had a chance to aim. He wasn’t playing around. This wasn’t a game.The clearing became a whirlwind of gunfire, shouts, and the sickening thud of
Jayden was seated in his room, going through the documents sent to him by Joe concerning Eva recent movement, purchases, pictures of her at different locations and all. Suddenly a video flickered to life on his phone screen. He’d received a cryptic message with a link, his heart already a lead weight in his chest. He’d known, somehow, that it was about Jessica. He’d been searching for her relentlessly, following every lead, every whisper, but it had all been dead ends. He pressed play, his breath catching in his throat. The first few seconds were a blur, just a dimly lit room. Then he saw Jessica, her eyes wide with terror, tears streaming down her face. Suddenly, George appeared. Jayden’s blood ran cold. He felt a rage so intense, so primal, it was like a physical force. He gripped the edge of the desk so hard his knuckles turned white.He watched, his stomach twisting into knots, as George violated her. He wanted to scream, to reach through the screen and rip George apart, but he w
When George was finally finished, he rolled off her, a look of smug satisfaction on his face. Jessica lay there, broken and trembling, tears streaming down her face. She felt dirty, used, disgusted with herself. She wanted to scrub her skin raw, to erase the memory of what had just happened, but she knew she never could.George sat up, adjusting his clothes. He glanced at the camera, then back at Jessica. "Send it to Jayden," he instructed Johnson and Mark, his voice flat and emotionless. "Make sure he gets a good look.""Yes, sir," Johnson replied, picking up the camera. He gave Jessica a quick, pitying glance before turning away.Mark nodded. "We'll take care of it, sir."As the two men left the room, George turned back to Jessica, who was still sobbing uncontrollably. He leaned over her, his eyes cold and hard. "Stop that noise," he hissed. "Or I'll have them come back and take turns. Do you understand me?"Jessica flinched, her sobs catching in her throat. She nodded weakly, unabl
"Morning, George," Jessica mumbled, forcing a smile as he entered the room. She was perched on the edge of the bed, trying to look casual, like she wasn't an hostage. It had been a week since he kidnapped her and since she last saw Jayden. The thought of Jayden sent a fresh wave of panic through her, quickly masked by the practiced indifference she now wore like a second skin."Morning, Jessica," he replied, his eyes scanning the room, lingering a little too long on her. "You slept well?" He asked, confirm the awkwardness in her behaviour these days, it was obvious she was up to something he didn't know about but would find out."Like a log," she lied, inwardly cursing him. Sleep had become a luxury she could barely afford. Nightmares of Jayden's worried face and George's angry eyes, plagued her every time she closed her eyes.He nodded, seemingly satisfied. "Good. I have some things planned for us today."Jessica's stomach churned. "Oh?" she asked, trying to keep her voice light. "Wh
" Hire a team of specialists, individuals with a unique set of skills, men who would be able to track George's location through a phone call. I mean, this is possible with vast expanse of the internet today " He told Ben crossing his legs. "This is my last hope of finding George." He said to himself inwardly, realizing they have literally done almost everything they could.In less that thirty minutes, about six professionals arrived his mansion with their various gadgets. They all looked scared as the walked into the living room and met Jayden sitting on the sofa staring at them. They all couldn't believe their eyes the moment they saw him; fear gripped each of them. "We need to try our best, else today might be the last day we'd see." One of them, Jack, whispered to another."Good day sir" They said in chorus."Do your setting up, we are beginning now! I'm going to be calling that bastard anytime soon" Jayden ordered and they instantly obeyed, bringing out their various gadgets from
The emptiness of George's apartment was a slap in the face. Jayden’s carefully constructed composure began to crumble. He felt a primal rage bubbling up inside him, a dark, consuming force that threatened to overwhelm him. He needed answers, and he needed them now. He picked up his phone, hoping that Joe had send a useful information. Opening the message, he saw his Joe holding one of George who appeared to be weak, it was obvious he had been tortured and beaten severely but refused to talk. Jayden sighed and shook his head, "He wouldn't speak regardless of whatever you do to him." He said out loud and thew the phone on his chair, waiting for Joe to call.An hour later, it was midnight when he returned to his mansion, the silence amplifying the turmoil within him. He couldn't bear to be alone with his thoughts. He needed to do something. He picked up, immediately dialling Ben's number. "Ben," he barked, his voice raw, "Why haven't I gotten any positive feedback, how long do we have to
Jayden was more offended by her confession, this was too much and there was no way he would let her go after hearing what she had just said. He was convinced that she knew something about Jessica's disappearance. "Where is Jessica?" He asked her, pushing her away from him."Jessica, that bitch. I don't know where she is but you know what she has been kidnapped." She responded and laughed again, grabbing a pillow beside her."Kidnapped?.By who and where has she been taken to?" Jayden asked her, forcefully taking the pillow from her in anger. He was even more angry that she was drunk but it was the only way to get the informations he wanted from her. "I don't know where she was taken to, but I'm sure George has her. Come to me now please." She cried."George? That bastard has the guts." Jayden yelled angrily immediately calling his men, who appeared in his room in less than twenty seconds. "Take this bitch and lock her up. Search everywhere in this country and get clue of where George
Jayden was stunned by not only her words but her confidence and courage to speak to him that way. Everything about her was fishy, he was trying to figure out things from her, which was the reason why he was enduring her stupid behaviours and words. He believed she has knowledge about Jessica 's whereabouts and his instinct never lie to him. "Sacrifices you have made for me?" Hhe asked her curiousoy, trying to get her to talk."Yes" Lillian responded, coming back to him while looking at him seductively as she continuously licked the bottom of her lips which Jayden saw as disgusting but he was going to endure as long as it was going to lead him to finding about Jessica."What are those sacrifices?" He asked, moving close to her and grabbed her waist. "It's time to play along bitch." He said to him self inwardly while staring nto her eyes like all the information he wanted was in there."Owuu, I like this." Jessica responded, placing her hands on his broad chest as she leaned her face c
Jessica remained quiet as she watch George get closer while she moved backwards. She kept on moving until she felt her back rubbing against the wall. She froze for a second, knowing that was the end, there was no place to escape to not anybody to call for help. She knew she need to brace up and accept everything that happens and will still happen until she gets what she wants and the revenge she deserves."What do you want George? What do you want from me?" She asked him, feeling disgusted that their body was now rubbing against each other."You know what I want Jessica, Al I want is you and you and you and you all over again." He said, licking the bottom of his lips while leaning his head closer to hers. "I can't wait to have you Jessica, I wish I could make a video and send to Jayden but I wouldn't want him to see my face. I want to leave him I'm frustration while he searches for you because you would never be found." He said, placing a forced kiss on her lips which she quickly wipe
