With her hands fastened on each side of the armchair, Isa tried putting her seat to a stall. She has had enough of Evelyn making her look like a child; spinning her seat and circling around her in sarcasm.

“Can you remember those days?” Evelyn asked, fluttering her eyes in scorn.

“What days?” Isa responded, maintaining the Innocence which sparkled from her eyes.

Evelyn laughed for a second. Her laughter was funny enough that Crystal and the staff chuckled as well. They've never seen the duo this happy together.

“What is funny about my question?” Isa asked, irritably.

Evelyn ignored her and kept on laughing. How could she possibly be asking Isa if she remembered those days. It just dawned on her that Isa had no memories to hold onto.

“Nothing is funny. Sorry, my baddd…” She stuttered, suppressing her lips from more laughter.

“I forgot that you never experienced a memorable childhood and two, I totally forgot you had memory issues.” She said with a sharp tone.

“Evelyn stop…” Douglas re

    She hopped into the long bus. There was no single seat left for her so she leaned her back against the door. She didn't have the chance to scrutinize everyone's faces. She just stared blankly with scrutiny in her eyes.She didn't want to ponder on how she would yell at him once she saw him. Each time a picture crawls up, she would shake it off.She just wanted to act out of the blue. It doesn't matter if she would lose him as a friend. She desperately needed an answer as to why he wanted to partner with his rival.It mightn't be a problem for him. Perhaps, he could be planning something huge to overthrow Walters real estate but nothing mattered more to her than her revenge. She personally wishes to destroy Douglas and Evelyn. She wished to see them begging and crawling on the floor for her to spare their lives.She bit her lips in rage, imagining how her plans would gradually turn into a mess because of Raymond.Right now, Douglas and his company would finally have something to hold

    Isa dimmed her eyes at the Acura car. She tried her lip reading skill on the duo but it seemed not to work out. The distance between them was nearly thirty cm apart. She could still remember his beefy, round face despite having a blurry vision from the car glass. She made a swift mind calculation which obviously showed that it's been fifteen years since she saw him. Then, he looked younger. Probably in his thirties but now she could see patches of wrinkled lines on his cheek and forehead.Her eyes were popping out like they were about to fall out. She stared at them with everything inside of her. She was surprised at her brilliance; at how she managed to recall a face from fifteen years ago.At this point, she wished to say hi to him. A breeze of eagerness flickered across her face. She wanted to hear his voice for the first time and know what his voice sounded like or what his aura felt like.Her boring childhood days slowly drifted into her memories. Always on the small wooden chai

    “What? Why are you staring at me that way?” He caught her right on time so she couldn't possibly deny it. The sound of the engine came to a halt. She became alert as he loosened his seatbelt, alighting from the car.She reciprocated with a mouth agape; shocked to see herself in such a place. The large standing water, bigger than two hectares of land, sent a cool breeze over her skin. She stepped further into the sand to admire the serene nature of the lake. Again, she doesn't think she would be able to do everything she planned to do to him.She just wanted to fill her eyes with the view before thinking of anything else.She suddenly turned and saw him walking towards a small canopy. She hissed but still followed him.“Why did you bring me here?” She shrieked, staggering behind him. She pulled on her inner strength as her feet kept sinking inside the thick sand. He didn't look back for a second, stirring up the rage in her. That old urge to take out her anger on him came crawling ou

    She scanned his physique with her eyes running from his foot to his head. His foot was buried in the thick sand. She couldn't see anything else but his long coat that stopped above his toe.She pursed her lips with urgency lurking inside her eyes. She wanted to make a quick estimate of his good look and give her the feedback but all her efforts to see his front view seemed abortive. Raymond was facing the lake while answering the call so she couldn't possibly see him properly.Linda was getting impatient. She desperately needed a compliment from Isa but it wasn't coming forth. At that moment she felt like nothing. If Isabella couldn't find a good compliment on her choices for him, then, she just has to give up on happiness.Linda wants the best for Raymond and Isabella was one of the best things she'd ever wished for him to have. She knew how Raymond had deeply fallen for her but she couldn't see the same measure of love in her eyes.Raymond narrated Isa's life story to her; how she

    “I know you won't complain but I feel the call is really important.” Isa pressed on with a pleading tone.“I don't care if it's important. I feel that what you have to say is more important than the call.” He mumbled, hesitant.“That's why I hung up.” He added. She saw him swallow heavily at the end of his words.Isa was short of words. She realized there was no way out for her. She puffed and cleared her throat. Maybe this was the right time for her to pour out her emotions to him.“Can I ask you something?” She mumbled in her lowest tone. No, she shouldn't ask for his permission before asking him. She could have just taken her anger on him at once.Raymond nodded, his dark blue eyes flickering with a keen interest.“Why did you choose to partner with my husband's company?” Isa's voice echoed with a hint of seriousness. She looked strict with the quiver in her voice. She wanted to know nothing else but the truth.Raymond's next line of words dropped like a bombshell.“I choose to par

    Isa had her eyebrows furrowing in uneasiness. Linda's gaze lingered in scrutiny of what she couldn't fathom but she didn't care anyways. Her concern has only settled for his last words. Right now, all she could think of was the best gift to offer him. She could feel the pit of her stomach churn in anticipation. Her anticipation has skyrocketed her mind to the moon and brought her back without solutions. She desperately needed a suggestion as to the type of gift he would like.She threw a glance at her phone and sighed irritably. She nearly ignored it but recalled that she could look up different gifts on the net. She let Linda wonder in her thoughts while she fiddled with her phone.Her jaw dropped as different flashy gifts popped out of her screen. Colorful and bold pictures of wrist watch boxes, shoe bags, customized wallets, flowers and photo frames. She paused between the photo frames and the wrist watch boxes.They appeared so cool but she didn't see her own shrug coming. It wa

    She was hurrying up with her silent cry as well. She didn't want to get engrossed before he would finally shut the door at her.It took some minutes before her hiccups went into a dead silence. She lifted her head and whispered something to him.“When I was a little girl, I had always had a crush on you. I saw you in my dreams each time I laid my head to sleep. You are the ideal reason I went into the modeling industry.” She said with trembling lips.Isabella gasped again. She quickly placed her palm over her mouth because her shrill had nearly reached them.“I never wanted to become a model. Do you think I like how I am being followed around by cameras and how my fucking private life is being monitored by everyone?”“Do you think I feel happy with how I am living my life? Of course, everyone expects my life to be perfect and I am living up to their expectations.” Amorr clenched her fist by her side, scoffing at the end of her words. Her face remained in twitches of bitterness.“You c

    Isabella's curiosity to figure out what Mrs Rhoda Bennett was cooking up for or against her was choking her up. She seemed determined to do all the things that Linda had ordered her to do but on a second thought, she paused.She had been nodding her head to all that Linda was saying and finally stopped. She peered her eyes straight into Linda's face.She couldn't believe those words were coming from Linda. Where were the guts coming from? Isabella's eyes zeroed into what seemed like disappointment.She was desperate to hear what Mrs Rhoda Bennett was cooking up for her and she was going crazy with thoughts on what Gift to give to Raymond so he could finally tell her everything she needed to know.Of all the solutions, why did it have to be this? She felt disheartened at Linda's opinions. Linda was being inconsiderate with her opinion. Isa knew how much she treasured Raymond and wanted the best for him. Shouldn't she have also thought of Isa's feelings? Linda, very observant, noticed

    Raymond shot a glance at the taxi's speedometer. It was at its highest but the car wasn't running as fast as he had expected.He urged the driver to drive faster as he could sense danger from afar. Not too far away. The nearer the black Honda came, the deeper he could feel the danger.Suddenly, the black honda pulled itself into the same level with the taxi. He saw four men putting on black masks. They were unrecognizable except from the tiny holes around their eyes which permitted them to see through and the tiny hole below their nostrils which allowed the passage of air.At this point, Raymond knew that he was in very big trouble. He could see a long pistol hanging across each man's chest and he saw a burning rage flaming in each of their eyeballs.He thought of nothing else but Isabella. How she was doing, what she might be doing at the moment or what could be going on through her thoughts. He recalled how she pleaded with him not to leave and how she told him it was dangerous outs

    Isabella muttered one last prayer before she shifted the laptop to herself to input the password.Sure, she wouldn't let him see the password because she couldn't trust anybody.She added more energy to hasten whatsoever she was doing. She wasn't sure who the suspect was.It could be the chairman but she hoped it shouldn't be him.On her first try, she unlocked the company's shares. She threw a galbce at the chairman who widened his eyes in shock.“How did you manage to know this?” The chairman suddenly asked in amazement.Isa just made a smirk.“Chairman, you forget things so easily. You must have forgotten that I was the same person that built this company to the top ten. Who do you think created the password to the company's shares?” She asked, making another cold smirk.The chairman took a deep breath and laughed.He couldn't possibly believe what she just said.“How is that possible. I thought Douglas was a smart man. Why didn't he change the password to the company's shares, kno

    As soon as they got inside the upper room, the system operators began to tremble on seeing the police men.The manager had to assure them that they weren't here to get them arrested.“All I need is your cooperation and nothing more.” The inspector mumbled to them to put their hearts at ease.He knew what they were scared of. Of course, they were young, vibrant guys and they might probably be involved in cyber crimes or internet fraud but he wasn't interested in any of that.The only thing he set his mind to do is to dig out who the culprit is.“Replay the clips, starting from this morning.” He said, narrowing his eyes.They turned on the TV that was connected to the cameras at the morgue attendant's room.The inspector watched the TV with every gusto in him. His eyes widened in shock as he saw Isa and Raymond walk inside the office.He maintained his steeze as they watched the TV from the moment the duo walked in to the moment the uniformed able bodied men left the morgue with the mor

    In the middle of their interaction, a call came in from the Federal Government. One of the ladies picked up the call and pressed the loud speaker button for everyone to hear what they had to say to each other.At this point, the case was resting in the hollow palms of the citizens. They were disappointed in the federal government for what happened.The individual who communicated with them wasn't specifically the federal government but an arm and messenger from the federal government.“This message is coming directly from the Federal government. I am here to tell you all that you have falsely been accusing them for what they know nothing about.” The baritone voice began from the other end and paused halfway to catch a breath.An unusual deafening silence drifted in. It was so quiet that if a pin was thrown on the floor, the sound would be heard clearly.“They have heard all your complaints and have decided to find the suspects behind the death of the morgue attendant and the patholog

    As the cool evening wrapped closer, the police station became crowded as officers trotted out from the inspector general's office.They were all coming from the inspector general's office. He called them after the news reported the death of the lady.Actually, the police station branch where Mrs Rhoda Bennett was arrested had nothing to do with the case of the dead lady but the inspector general took it upon himself to investigate the case.He called the inspector general of that branch and requested that the case be transferred to his own branch.And yes was his answer because they were once good friends.The inspector general called his officers afterwards and commanded them to go and fetch any evidence that could be linked to the death of the lady.“Go out there.

    Isa was still curled up like a baby in the duvet when her phone began to ring. She became so scared and wondered who it might be.She alighted from the bed and grabbed the phone from the top of the drawer. She glanced at her phone screen and saw that it was the chairman. She was supposed to meet up with him after getting the autopsy results but the car crash accident became a big barrier.Since then, she hasn't gotten the opportunity to reschedule their meeting and now he is calling her phone.She didn't know what to do; whether to pick up the call and tell him that a lot of things went wrong from the time they were meant to meet or give him a run down of the trouble they were in which got them into another city.On a second thought, she restrained herself.

    She shut her eyes, allowing her memory to dance in the ecstasy of his kiss.He began to suck her mouth slowly, sliding his tongue into every corner of her mouth. He almost choked her to death.He kept on sliding in as if he was searching for something precious to him.Suddenly, he paused and looked into her eyes. She reciprocated with an alluring smile and licked her lips.At that moment, she felt safe and satisfied with him and wished there would be a way for her to repay him for all that he has done for her.Staring into her face, his eyes slowly traveled to the nape of her neck. He felt like sucking the hell out of her lith skin.The manner in which she stared at him showed that she was longing for more of his kisses but what he felt at that moment was more than a kiss.He wished she was his already so he could toss her into his arms and deal with her in the measure he longed for.“Why are you staring at me like that?” He whispered to her.She became quite flustered at his words.

    How would she make this lady understand that she is on the run? And that she can't trust anyone at the moment.“Hey, pretty…don't act like you don't like what I'm offering you.” The lady said sarcastically, tugging at Isabella's blouse.Isa became alert and looked up at the lady. Why did she tug at her in that manner? Is it mandatory to accept her nasty offers?Something about her made her feel so uncomfortable. She threw a gaze towards Raymond but he was still focused on filling the form.The moment he lifted his head and saw the lady on the black blazers, he screamed Isabella's name.“Run.” He shouted with the top of his voice, looking through a crowd that suddenly appeared from nowhere.Perhaps, it was time to board the plane.Isabella sprang up from the bench and began to run, forcing herself through the crowd.She was panting like never before. There was nothing else on her mind other than to get hold of Raymond's hands.She managed to tilt her neck backwards as she caught a gli

    He suddenly pulled the car to the side of the road. Everything seemed like a dream to him. It's barely ten minutes since they drove out of the morgue and barely fifteen minutes since those uniformed men took the pathologist and the morgue attendant away.How possible could it be that they were both found dead? Actually the Airlines news station doesn't give fake information.“The pathologist and the morgue attendant are both dead?” Isa asked, perplexed.“How could that be possible?” He replied with scrutiny on his face.A while ago, three uniformed men who claimed to come from the Federal Government came and cuffed them out of the morgue.According to the news, their death didn't result from any form of car accident.Which only means one thing. Those men were sent to kill the pathologist and the morgue attendant.But why? Raymond shaked his head vehemently as a series of thoughts stormed into his head.If those men truly came from the Federal Government, they would kill only the path
