Dirty Secrets Chapter 90
XavierAngela’s willingness to free Mateo leaves a bitter taste in my mouth every damn time. I had to keep myself from asking crazy questions because she has been through a lot that day; If I should go ahead to demand why she wants Mateo roaming around, it might not end well for both of us; I mean it already got tense when I mentioned Aaron’s visit to her room on our wedding day.How dare she call me unbelievable when she’s always hiding things that she ought to tell me? “You want to know what’s unbelievable?” I took a deep breath, willing myself to calm down “What’s unbelievable is the fact that Aaron paid you a visit in your room at the villa on our wedding day and you failed to mention it to me.” My jaw clenched. “Why is that?”“It’s not what you think.” She whispered.“You definitely do not know what’s going through my head right now.” I want to shoot the motherfucker for seeing my bride before me. “You do not know what I’m thinking Angela.”“He only came to search for his little
Dirty Secrets Chapter 91
XavierAaron is still in New York, my men confirmed it. He agreed to leave New York with his father this morning; it’s mid noon and the fucker is still in New York. I know he’s still here for only one reason.To say goodbye to Angela as he said. That bastard lives to annoy me.Pushing the door to the warehouse open, I stepped into the room, almost getting blinded by the bright studio light. Oliver who has a thorny whip bowed slightly toward me. “Good afternoon boss man.”This afternoon is indeed a good one; what a beautiful sight to behold. “A lovely afternoon to you too Oliver.” I stared at a bloody Mateo. “I love it when you get creative.”Mateo smiled with bloody gummy teeth. “See who decided to come out of his lair.” He taunted with a smile involving more gums. “What? Have you decided to put an end to this nonsense?” Being raised in a mafia family involves training your body to be resistant to pain. You feel less pain than a normal person.“I’m sure you aren’t stupid enough to bel
Dirty Secrets Chapter 92
AngelaXavier has the guts to behave as if nothing happened; as if he didn’t accuse me of having an affair with Aaron. I know he didn’t mean that, but he’s too stubborn to take it back. I’ll teach him to apologize when he’s wrong.Natasha hasn’t shown up in the office yet after the board temporarily suspended her. I’ve been running the day-to-day activities of the company and trust me, I feel so good while doing that. The sudden news that I once worked for a company that steals design from our company doesn’t settle well with the workers. Although not in my presence, I know the murmur and gossip.Don’t get me started on the board members. I’ve been expecting a sudden board meeting to discuss the recent development, but to my greatest surprise, I haven’t heard anything from them. That doesn’t mean I’m relaxed; if anything, I’m more anxious. Silence could mean that they are planning something that they definitely won’t like, or that Natasha is using the situation to her advantage; after
Dirty Secrets Chapter 93
XavierMy office could be considered the center of this building. I could see everything happening in this house. Every CCTV camera is connected to one of the computers in my office, as well as the security room. Nothing happens in my absence once I’m seated on this seat. Even in my absence, I could always replay the events of the day that happened while I was away.With a whiskey glass in my hand, I watched Angela through the CCTV camera as she stomped towards my office. Sly followed her quietly, his face contorted into a deep frown. I think he understands the fact that he fucked up big time and I’m going to punish him for that.I wouldn’t say Sly is my favorite, or that I’m too fond of him, but for whatever reason, I’ve always let him off the hook anytime he fucks up. When Angela was kidnapped by that lunatic, I made sure to punish all my men who were supposed to protect her but failed to do so.The security men at the gate lost a finger before I fired them, but Sly, whose only job
Dirty Secrets Chapter 94
AngelaReturning to court is like returning to a new different reality. For the past few days, I’ve forgotten the fact that we still have a murderer to put behind bars. Sitting with the rest of the family, I watched people, one young lady to be particular being called to be witness stand to give her testimony. According to what Fredrick informed the crowd, the young lady whose make is yet to be mentioned is one of the domestic staff of Shirley's family.Throughout my life as a Shirley, I’ve never seen this young lady before. To my best knowledge, she never worked for the Shirleys, but then who am I to say? After all, I left home for over three years.Miller stood up to interrogate the young lady who is known by the name Clarissa. If anyone can figure out that she’s full of shit, then it’s definitely Miller. He has a way of figuring out a lie from the truth, and he also happens to have a talent for being able to conceal without unease whatever lies he wants the crowd or the people to
Dirty Secrets Chapter 95
XavierVeronica may have been paid by me to testify against her sister in court, but I never gave her the content of her testimony. She is to say what she knows, but keep her name out of the story. Any implication to herself due to the testimony she renders isn’t any of my business, hence the reason she has to be smart while giving her testimony.Implicating me or Angela with her testimony is out of the question because no matter what she says here about me, I’ll be able to get away from it. With my fingers still intertwined with Angela’s, I gave Veronica my undivided attention, ready to hear whatever she was willing to spill.“It all started two months before Mr. Derek was killed.” She glanced at Vera whose eyes are glassy from the pain of having her twin sister betray her. I guess this wouldn’t have happened if she treated her nicely. Betrayal comes easy when the other party feels betrayed.“Vera rushed into my home one day, looking all panicked. When I asked her what the problem w
Dirty Secrets Chapter 96
Angela Something fishy must have happened last night. I do not want to accuse anyone wrongly, but last night, I woke up and didn’t find Xavier on the bed, I assumed he left in the middle of the night to handle work issues in his office, but when I went to his office, I didn’t find anyone there; as a matter of fact, I didn’t find Xavier anywhere around the house. I had contemplated calling but decided against it when I noticed that Lucas too was absent.Imagine waking up to the news that Hailey Dante died in a fire outbreak in her own house. Painting my lips red, I grabbed my black handbag off the bed and walked out of the room. Kenz left for school an hour ago, so I do have any reason to head to her room first.Luckily for me, Xavier was all alone in this office when I walked in. Dressed in a navy blue suit with his hair styled backward, he searched for a file frantically. He was too invested in finding whatever he was searching for that he didn’t hear me walk into his office.“Did y
Dirty Secrets Chapter 97
Xavier Listening to the young man talk is the most tiring event of the day. We all know why we’re here, so I do not understand the need to stress it out by having this young man stand and talk the same thing repeatedly for over an hour. The bottled water did nothing to help the situation. The perfect liquid for this situation is whiskey, scotch, Brandy, or vodka; anything but water. I’m doing this for Angela, she’s the only reason I’m seated calmly and tolerating this offensive sound in my ear.For the tenth time, they picked up the file again and read through it, taking their goddamn time. Biting my tongue, I picked up the bottle again and emptied the content into my mouth, slamming the bottle on the table. It’s either they didn’t notice my anger, or they pretended not to notice.Taking my eyes and attention off them, I looked around the booth, observing anything other than the humans before me. Time ticked away with my level of patience. Sniffing loudly, I grabbed the water next to

Dirty Secrets Epilogue
Epilogue AngelaTwo months laterLife doesn’t go as expected. I’m pretty sure Natasha, Veronica, and Vera didn’t see this coming when they were scheming against me and my father.It’s been two months now since the news of Natasha’s accident hit the internet. They presumed it to be suicide just like Susan DaVinci, but I know better. It is my husband’s doing and I do not need anyone to confirm it for me.Poor Mr. DaVinci. The old man died of cardiac arrest after his daughter was found dead in a clubhouse. Arlo, Natasha’s son is with the Wilsons. They send us pictures of him, and against Xavier’s liking, I visit him once in a while; he’s my nephew after all.All the shares Xavier forced Natasha to hand over to me made me the highest shareholder, but I gave the shares which were originally meant for Natasha to her son Arlo. This conflict has to end with us, it does not have to be extended to our children and children’s children.Having a near experience with death makes you take a lot o
Dirty Secrets Chapter 114
XavierImagine being forced to wear a Versace gown with a perfect makeup few minutes after your son was taken away from you; that’s exactly Natasha’s fate and with the way her lips tightened, I could tell she in no way like her fate. My men pulled her to the big hall, each man standing by her side. She literally had to race after them because they walked too fast, which also made her walk too fast, a painful attempt if you ask me because her nine inches heel made it pure torture.Stopping at the big door, Harden knocked and the door opened. We all stepped into the big hall where Mateo is being held.It’s okay to say that the young man has been battered beyond repair. I do doubt if any plastic surgeon can fix that face because the scars and current bruises are going to give them tough work.“Long time no see Mateo.” When was the last time I was here? I can’t even remember. Approaching the battered man, I squatted to his level. “I’ve not been a good host and I apologize for that.” Slap
Dirty Secrets Chapter 113
XavierThe first person I visited was Natasha in a cozy cabin that have enough heat for the sake of the baby. The moment I walked into the room, I heard the cry of the baby. Lucas met me at the doorway. “Don’t you think we should hire a nanny? At least until you have to send him to Martinez?”“That won’t be necessary.” The lesser people know about this, the better it is for everybody. “If things should go well, the baby should be out of our hands soonest.” The loud cry was reduced to whimpers. “What’s up with the baby?”“I think Natasha is breastfeeding him.” Well then, I have to give the baby a little more time to finish his breakfast. “Mr. DaVinci is still in our custody, what should we do with him?”“Let him go.” He doesn’t know who kidnapped him or his daughter. All DaVinci knows is that someone sent him a picture of his daughter held in chains, he flew down to New York and was snatched right at the airport, next, he was in a room with a blindfold while Oliver recorded the whole t

XavierLucas got to the hospital before me, he called me on my way to inform me that he was already at the hospital and he inquired to know if they should wait for me before administering the antidote but I told them to carry on because the more that poison is in her, the more problem it causes for her.According to Susan, her recovery will be a gradual process. She claimed that if the antidote was administered before the poison became effective, then it would have worked asap, but for the fact that the poison has already started doing its job, it will take two to three days before she finally regains consciousness which made me question her initial plan.I vividly recall Susan telling me that if she takes the antidote tonight, she’ll be able to go home tonight and that can only mean that she lied to me.Parking the car, I raced into the hospital. Every other person became invisible to me as I ambled to her room. Right by her side, Jackie, Lucas, Seth, and Dr. Grey observed her. I gu
Dirty Secrets Chapter 111
XavierI’ve been with Angela for six hours, holding her hand and staring at her pale face whilst wishing that I could swap places with her right now. She doesn’t have to go through this, especially because of me. I brought Susan into her life and I’m the one who Susan is obsessed with.Sighing, I massaged her fingers, careful not to disconnect the machine helping to keep her alive. Her fashion show was a disaster. Nobody or no news line talks about it without talking about the incident that happened.“I’m going to get you out of here,” I promised her. “This is not going to be how you end. I’m going to send that bitch to the afterlife and get you out of here.” Leaning down, I kissed her palm.My phone buzzed and I picked it up. A text message from Lucas to let me know that he has arrived and they are on their way to intercept his car. Pocketing the phone, I stood up, stared at my wife then reached down and kissed her lips softly. “I know you wouldn’t want me doing that, but I have to d
Dirty Secrets Chapter 110
XavierMary was the first to enter the club, but I wasn’t daft to let her go in alone, not because I’m bothered about her safety, but because I do not trust her not to ruin this for us. For all I know, she might be playing a fast one on us or trying to alert Susan of my presence. I had to send Tom to keep an eye on her.Stomping into the clubhouse, I requested a room and they handed me keys to room number twenty. Guessing we aren’t far apart, I climbed the stairs to her room.The thin walls made it possible to hear people moaning inside the occupied rooms. Never in my life did I think I’ll grace this shit hole with my presence. It’s an error to hear different voices of people moaning at the same time.Mary met us in the hallway. “Bathi went to grab some tampons for Susan, you need to grab her and leave before he returns.”“Tampons?”She shrugged. “I had to come up with an excuse to send him away.”I’m not afraid of Bathi or whatever his name is, he can kiss my ass for all I care. Igno
Dirty Secrets Chapter 109
****Dirty Secrets is gradually coming to an end. We have two more chapters to go ****XavierMary or whatever her name is is a variable I did not see coming. She walked in at the right time and saved me some time. Staring at her, I tried to figure out if this is just a charade. When a man is desperate just like myself, there is always a tendency for mistake; a mistake from a desperate man.The whiskey glass weighed on my hand as I tapped the edge of the glass. I stared at the woman’s eyes, not because I found her green eyes alluring but because I want to push her to the edge, I want to unnerve her, to make her give out any emotion that will prove she was up to something.“Lucas,” I called out without taking my eyes away from the young lady.He appeared in my line of vision instantly. “Yes, boss.”“Go get the men ready.” She shifted from foot to foot. “I want Susan to be brought in alive and we will do anything to make it happen, even if it means bringing that clubhouse down.”Lucas b
Dirty Secrets Chapter 108
XavierLucas couldn’t believe the absurdity of the whole situation. Still shocked and dumbfounded, he kept passing glances at me. “I do not get this. Are you trying to tell me that she did all of this because she wants to fuck you?” He grimaced at his words. “This is just ridiculous. Does she realize that this is almost costing someone’s life?”My brain racked for a solution. “This isn’t her first time killing someone to get what she wants.” It's a pity that this will be her last. I’m sure she was very shocked by my response to her request.“I want you on my bed tonight Xavier.” She chortled at an untold joke. “Give me a lot of orgasms and in return, I’ll give you the antidote.”Unable to believe my ears, I clicked my teeth. “You’re telling me that you did this just because you want a taste of my dick.”Lucas stopped his sentence mid-way. I heard him bid goodbye to whoever he was conversing with before closing in on me to listen to my ridiculous conversation with Susan.“If you were i
Dirty Secrets Chapter 107
XavierThat moment was surreal. One moment everybody was happily cheering my wife and the next minute, everyone rounded her with panicking faces. I rushed out of my seat and raced towards the runway where my men already formed a formidable wall around her, keeping the crowd and paparazzi away from her. They created room for me the moment I raced toward the circle.Falling on my knee, I cradled my wife’s head and patted her cheek lightly, a futile attempt to wake her up. With the show long forgotten, I got rid of my suit jacket and hers too. The next thing that came to mind was to check her pulse.With trembling fingers, I picked up her suddenly cold hands, too cold to be considered normal. Thankfully, I felt her pulse. “Angela?” I resumed tapping her cheek. “Come on baby, wake up…” Settling my ass on the floor, I balanced her well on my thighs. “Come on baby…open your eyes.” She remained unresponsive. “Open your eyes goddammit!”“The ambulance is almost here.” Lucas formed me.My pou
