Eve was a bit calm after she cried for a long time on the couch and her face had gone all sticky and wet. Jacky was beside her consoling her. “It’s fine, I’ll talk to Wesley, I’m sure there’s probably some mixup somewhere.” He touched her shoulders. Eve shook her head slightly, he probably didn’t want to hear anything from her at the moment or hear him say her name. Seeing how angry he was at her, she knew he was holding himself so much not to hurt her and she didn’t wanna dwell on the thought of what he did to her last night. “How are you feeling, I forgot to ask, you came home in the evening when I left home yesterday?” She sniffed and lift he puffy eyes at him. “Yes. Boss, took me from the hospital last night and then dropped me off at home and went out. I didn’t know where he went until... you know the rest.” He sighed sitting close to her, his knees touching hers where he sat. “I’m fine you don’t have to worry about me, you’re the one that’s more hurt. You should worry abou
“What are you gonna do? I’m not gonna give this back to you. I already have them and too bad I’ve already uploaded them in the newsfeed, it would be just a while before it all starts buzzing.” The reporter laughed over the phone. Fanny's hands tighten around the phone. “How could you do it without my permission, I told you not to do anything without me telling you that!” She yelled over the phone. “Over something as that, I wasn’t the one being stupid not to do anything.” He chucked at her. “Do you know what this is, I wouldn’t let it slips off my fingers and I have to do something about it, you were the one who came to me at first and told me about the Wesley wedding, you know I’m a reporter and I most certainly do my job.” Eve groaned inwardly, she took the phone from her ears shortly and placed them back on his ear again. “You would take the post down immediately.”“I’m not doing any of that.” He hung up on her. Fanny yelled with her veins prodding out of her neck. She was her
Moscow watched the sex escapades video on his phone, none of this was real. He could have done this, he suspected Fanny. She’d been over at his house, she was closer to Eve. She could’ve done this. But he wasn’t gonna jump to conclusions yet. He would take his time to find that out. And he was gonna do it. He stared at his side, Eve was asleep on the couch she’d cried herself to sleep. He won’t sit and do nothing when he started all of this. His stupid feelings won’t go away. If she was asking about the poison could she have a clue about who the killer was? “You should tell me anything you find out so we could think and have this worked out. Isn’t that what’s important, I’m not gonna have you by my side when your heart longs for someone else.” He stretched out his hands if he would be able to touch her but it was a bit far from his reach. He dropped his hands back on the bed and removed the drip from his hands. He saw an update on the news when he was about to get off from bed,
“What did you say?” He grabbed her by the hair and pulled her back to him, Fanny groaned and gnashed her teeth together at the pain of her head being pulled backward. “I don’t wanna do this anymore!” She cried out. “You said you had a plan that you would tell where she was, and it would be so easy to get her from there” he pressed the gun over at her forehead. And pushed her to the ground. “Tell me where she at before I have your head blown off!”“Kill me!” She cried. He grabbed her hair again. “What did you get the fucking nerves from, you’re starting to annoy me and I hate it!” He hits her with the tip of the gun at her head. He let go of her hair and her head hits the carpet. “I don’t know where she is!” She slapped her before she said the words completely from her mouth. She’d been walking on a piece of thin ice ever since, someone has been using her. She wasn’t the one who gave him the documents, she told him she wasn’t gonna give him this until he does what she asked him
Wesley had himself locked up in the room and won’t come out of it, beside him were several bottles which he’d chugged down on an empty stomach, He laughed at himself. And then took another bottle. “Boss, there’s something you need to see.” Jacky knocked over at the door, Wesley staggered to his feet and went to the door, he opened it and staggered back to the place he was. He sat down and refilled his glass. “Haven’t you told me before about the documents that went online? I know there shouldn’t be any worry about it.” He swept his hair off his face. “That’s not it Sir.”“What is it then Jacky?” He turned to him with the glass on his lips. “Will you stop drinking sir?” He took the glass from his hands. “If you missed her that much you should go and see her than stuffing yourself here night and day and then the only thing you do is drink yourself into a stupor, it isn’t fair is it?” He sounded worried and wasn’t ready to stop talking yet. “You’re gonna hurt yourself with this, y
“Sir, you’re here. I’ve been waiting for you!” The director knocked and got into the office without being told to come in. “Sir we are going bankrupt, we need to find sponsors, everyone has left, Gemma automobile, I’m afraid it would have to shut down.” He paced in front of him, and Jacky arranged the files, giving the ones that are more important to him to glance through. “We’re not shutting down. I won’t take down my company.”“Then we would be forced to close up because their no fund and the workers are threatening to quit because they have been paid!”“We’re gonna pay them. I’ve sent some money into the company’s account. Pay the workers and...” he sighed, he won’t be enough to launch the new Gemma cars. He placed his hand on his forehead and took off his shut. He rolled up his sleeves and took another file from Jacky. “...and we would launch the car as we planned.” He flipped through the file with the pen in his hands and did what he had to do with it.“Where are we gonna get
“Wesley came and took you out. He wanted to take me home first, I told him to take you home and he left he did return quickly.” She remembered that was it. “Did he take me home or someone else did?” He asked her. “I can’t remember,” she itches the side of her neck. She couldn’t remember what happened then or if she had asked him about how he got home. “What are we gonna do?” She keeps on biting her nails. “Do you think that’s where the fault was?”“That was the only time I was drunk, you know because of my work I don’t get drunk that often. You...”“I know you hardly drink.” She completed his statement. He nodded at her. And looked in front of him. “That’s why I know something happens that night I was drunk and at home.” He took out his phone sending another text to his phone. “Has he replied to the first you sent to him?” She crane her neck to see if he replied. The text was sent yesterday. “He hasn’t.” He told her and made her see the text instead of spying on his text. She
He sprung up from his seat, turned as if he was leaving, and made a glance over at Jacky, he saw him smirking with his head down over the papers he wasn’t reading.“Don’t come back here as you said.” He points the ball pen at him. “I won’t.” He pushed the door. “But I’ll meet you at home.” And hurried out as if he was being chased. “Why did you come here to ask that..” he wanted to ask but he was already gone, he watched him through the glass door, as he limped out of the company. Damn!He could have killed him that night. Was that the effect of it? Moscow did tell him, it would make him go extremely violent and he was the one he’d used it on. “What do you think made him ask that?” He stared over at Jacky. He shook his head slightly. “I won’t know Sir,” he looked over at the doors Moscow had gone through. “...maybe he’d found something” He whispered. “Hello, Dr. Moscow.” He picked up the call. He was about to take a taxi, but he couldn’t take his car because he couldn’t dri
“Her water broke, so we were at the hospital.” Wesley panicked over the phone. He had been pacing in front of the room she was taken in. He didn’t know how long it was gonna be. “Calm down, I’m gonna be there soon,” Vero replied over the phone. “I’m trying to, I just can’t. It’s been hours in there.” His hands went over to the wall and placed them on it. He didn’t know how long but he knew he had been outside the door long enough.“You just have to calm down and everything would be fine.” How could he calm down when he could hear her painful grunts from the room? “I’ll be there soon. Don’t worry it takes a lot of time since it’s her first. I had a similar experience when I had you.” She was trying to soothe him but none of that was working. He couldn’t get away from the anxiety he was feeling. “I’ll be waiting.” He wished he won’t have to do with the sound. He ruffled his hair and kept his phone back in his pocket. He faced the wall again and then moved over to have his seat. H
He smiled at her and placed the ring tenderly on her finger. She stared at it, with a smile on her face. He got up on his knees, the light went out again, and the candlelight was lit and that surrounding her was the symbol of love which she didn’t know was in there at first. She couldn’t hold back the tears, she let them slide down her face. He held her face close and kissed her on the lips. His hands were over her waist as he held her close to him. Her hand was wrapped around his neck. He spun her around with a smile spread across his face. He couldn’t ask for more than this. “I love you, honey, I love you so much.”He placed her down on her feet, and smiled broadly, he couldn’t express how much happiness he felt, this was the life he never thought he was gonna have. But there he was, with the woman he loved, which had got him to believe in so much that he can. “We should have some champagne, come on have a seat and let’s eat.” She wasn’t sure she would be able to place a spoo
“It’s the day we’ve been waiting for!” Parker clapped his hands as he giddy followed Wesley to the office. “Today we are launching the Gemma car yep!” Wesley chuckled at his excitement, he seems more excited than he did. “Come on everyone, we’re having a party after this!” He yelled at the workers. And they cheered him. “...and Sir is gonna pay for our dinner.” He bowed with hands stretched out to him. Wesley laughed and got into the office. Parker hurried in before he shut the door. He walked up to him and stood by his side.“I haven’t seen you this happy over the month Sir. Well, I guess...” he winked. “Did you get what I ask you to?” Wesley ignored him. “Absolutely!” He dip his hands into his pocket and brought out the small box and dropped them at the table. “It’s the perfect one for you, you trust me she’s gonna love it.” He said with a lot of confidence in his voice assured that she was gonna like it. Wesley grabbed the box and opened it and then he stared at the glitte
Wesley left with a smile on his face. It was only three days away and he was waiting for how successful it was gonna be. He twirled the car keys in his hands and walked to the car. He was getting a car, he got into the car before he took out his phone from his pocket and dropped them at the empty side after picking up the call. “Boss,” he called. “Have you got it done, what is the report?” He ignited the car and drove out of Herbert valley. “Crystal clear.” He replied almost immediately.“You did well.” He commended with a straight face. “Thank you, Boss” he could tell he was smiling with the sound of his voice. “I’ll get you out of there and make sure you don’t get caught.” He told him strictly. “Thank you, boss.” He bowed as if Wesley could see him bowed at him. “I’ll come over or if I can’t send someone to have you bailed out. And you’ll get out immediately” “Thank you, boss.” He bowed over again. Wesley ended the call, he knew he was grateful because of how his voice soun
“....you probably didn’t know because he won’t get to tell you anything about it. Every minute of his life should be taken as precious as a year. what I treated him for wasn’t just any sickness, he saw him collapse a lot of times and the blood that was out of his nostrils at most times. It’s because of the brain tumor. If you ever leave his side one day and I might not be there. Don’t forget you might not get to see him again if it deteriorated. He didn’t want to know about it and he kept it a secret from you. Because you would only get worried about. I know if you find out the truth it’s gonna hurt you but what about the times you spent with him? I loved you but then I found out your happiness wasn’t with me, I couldn’t make you as happy as he does. He has fewer years to live if the brain tumor remained as it is for now. You shouldn’t make the decision you’re gonna regret all your life because of the one mistake he made. Everyone deserved a second chance. It’s either now or ne
“...she lied to my face, she told me she wasn’t pregnant and that she got rid of it. I just heard her say she’s fucking pregnant to Moscow!” He was yelling, he was so pissed about what he had found out. He stretched out the paper to her, and she took them where she sat on the couch.“Tell me what that is?” She narrowed her gaze at the paper.“This is a twin baby.” She muttered. “She’s having twin!” He palmed his forehead and faced the wall. “She wasn’t gonna tell me about you. She was ready to leave without me finding out about them, she was ready to leave and might not be back here!” He punched the wall with his fist. “I won’t have known about them, I would never have got to see them.” He cried with his fist still on the wall. She stood up and went to him, and she stood in front of him. “...I need to get them back, I would go down on my knees if I had to.” He had done that before to her, he went on his knees but she left him still. “I don’t know what I’m gonna do to have her b
“I know you’re mad at me that I haven’t been able to pay a visit to you. I’ve been so occupied. Don’t take that as an excuse, damn I’m sorry Moscow.” Over her hands was a rose. She dropped them at his tomb.“Never in my wildest dream did I think of meeting you here, I never had the thought of it. Not once.” Her hands went over his name on the tomb with a gloomy face. “You ended up this way because of me. I owed you a lot, I never got to say I was thankful for being part of my happy memories. I valued whatever friendship we had.” Tears slide from her eye. “Yes, friendship.” She laughed with the tears coming out. “You were like the brother I looked up to, that you’re gonna protect me, you’re always gonna be there. All my beck and call You never once failed. I wanted you to be an uncle to my kids. I wanted them to meet you.” Her hands went over her stomach. “We did it. I’m a successful heiress. And I’m planning on leaving the county soon, my documents are all ready.” She stood up fro
“Sir you’ve been working for days straight without having any chance to rest or have a break, you just go out of the hospital.” Parker was learning the door, his eyes seemed tired and dull. “We don’t have any more time, we have just a week to prepare for it. In a few days we would be launching the cars, I don’t want any errors, there shouldn’t be any mistakes.” He points his pen at him. “Go back to work.” He had the pen directed to the door. “Another all-nighter?” He palmed his forehead. “I’ve got a family Sir.”“Won’t they feed, you need to work? You can choose to quit.” He flipped the pages of the file and continued working on them. Parker sighed and withdrew from the door. There was nothing he was gonna say to him that would make him change his mind about them leaving the office. Wesley looked up when he was done. And dropped his pen, he was tired but he couldn’t admit it. He had to make it work. He went to the window and stared at the working. Was he stressing them too much?
“You’re Grey?” He whispered with his eyes widened. He touched the tip of his sleeve if he wasn’t seeing a ghost or something. “It’s you.” He blurts out and fell back from the chair. Wesley stopped whistling, he got up from his chair, and went over to him when he fell. He lift him by the collar and forced him back on the chair. His body shuddered vigorously at his touch. “How are you alive?” “Someone saved me.” The one friend he would never forget. He placed a hand over his chair. Staring into his eyes. “How did you become Wesley, how did you...?” His voice quaked. “I was surprised too how it happened but I was burning with hatred to have you down on your knees in front of me. Not as Wesley but as Grey. Don’t worry about the cops they won’t come to get you soon. You still have a lot of time with me.” He smirked and let go of his hands that were on his chair. Just today he was gonna live as Grey Hansford, the poor boy from San Francisco. Tonight he would be the pushover Grey tha
