Owen sat impatiently on a chair as he kept on calling Zoey's number but it was not reachable.He kept on trying but it was not reachable. After the doctor informed them about Gia's health he got angry more. He was waiting for her to wake up so that he can't hurt her and say hurtful things to her just like he did to Whitney but he can't.She already lost her mind even if he did she won't understand what he is talking about.He wanted to have his money back and get the company back from Alex. He has the hope that he will get Janiece back once he does that.But Miss Zoey's number is not reachable, he checked the address on the business card and decided to go to her maybe something is wrong with her phone.When he got to the address he saw nothing there. There was no sign of a company."Excuse me, sir?" He stopped a passerby. "Yes, Mister" the woman answered."Was there a company here named Zoey?" He asked. " We don't have a company in this neighborhood" she replied.After noticing his e
Condemned and outcasted from a young age because of her oddity among her family, Whitney grew up fending for herself without help from them.They shunned her because she didn’t inherit her mother’s beautiful genes unlike her younger sister, and neither did she inherit her father's intelligence, unlike her older brother.To the world, she is the polar opposite of her sister, Gia who is a popular diva and has always been everyone's favorite since they were young.If any incident occurred, they hesitate not to get it blamed on her. She has always been the scapegoat of the family.On becoming an independent young adult, she thought her miseries will be over or lessened nonetheless, but that was wishful thinking on her part.At first, due to Gia's manipulation and her brother, Owen's influence, her position, and her job at the family’s company were taken away from her, thereby rendering her jobless.Then her boyfriend/fiancé of six years relationship cheated on her with Gia.It was devasta
Whitney sat on the sidewalk bench crying silently. As though on cue, it started raining heavily.“Why!? Why! What have I ever done to deserve this!!” she soliloquized angrily.She was not crying because she felt like a failure, She was crying because she had been staying strong all alone, with nobody to lean on.Stayed strong for a very long time that, at this point, the tears couldn't help falling this time around. She just felt so tired of her predicament.Earlier that day**Whitney stared at the letter on her desk in despair. Who will she ask for help now?Her brother Owen who is also the CEO was not even an option right now cause he hates her guts.She stared at the dismissal letter again.Why has life always been unfair to her?She looked at her chubby reflection in the mirror. It's not her fault that she was born this way.Ever since she was young, it was pretty much obvious to everyone that she looks and behaves differently from her family.Her mother Lena was a hot model in h
He has been the only one that has been there for her from the onset ignoring the whispers of the world around them.Therefore she won't sit still for him to be badmouthed.She turned around to leave and heard Owen say,“ Don't come back here crying for help.”“I won't,” she answered and left. ****Getting to the company's garage, she sighed in frustration at the sight of all the luxurious-looking cars parked while hers stood out as an eyesore.She wished that her situation would change for the better and fantasized about how she will own a car as expensive and luxurious as those before her.But who was she deceiving? They were just wishful thinking. She shook her head and walked over to where her car was parked.Just a step taken toward her car, she saw Owen's new Porsche parked in a secluded spot. She walked gingerly to the car and smirked as an idea clicked in her head.She looked around and found a stone big enough to make satisfying damage. Then she walked to the car and
Gia smirked and stood up wrapping the duvet around herself.“What is it bitch? Don't go about talking of how I cheated with your fiance cause Karl was never was and would never be yours,” she said moving closer to caress Karl and he did nothing to stop her.He only avoided looking directly into Whitney's eyes subtly confirming that what Gia said was true.“See this ring... He proposed to me and very soon we'll be getting married after welcoming our first child,” Gia showed off the stunning ring on her finger while rubbing her stomach delicately.'So she is already pregnant. How long have they been cheating behind my back?' Whitney thought as she suddenly clutched her chest.Why would they do this to her?He could have just dated Gia instead of deceiving her for so long. This heartbreak is too much to handle.“Bitch, you better don't die here. You should get out and lock the door. Find somewhere else to die,” Gia concluded before pulling Karl back to the bed.Karl turned to look at Whi
Whitney immediately stopped her continuous demand to be released and looked out of the window.Everywhere was dark and there was no one in sight.Therefore, even if she wants to report this cocky man, no one would be able to assist her as there won't be any witnesses.That's even if the security will believe her.She panicked immediately thinking of begging him to release her. But then with her stubborn personality, she refused to apologize for doing nothing.So instead she started the volume of her shouting for help while banging on the window loudly.Maverick looked up getting annoyed and irritated while wondering if he had just made a mistake.The bodyguard that had forced Maverick to bring her in the cause of his complaints looked away in fear.He dare not look at his face afraid to see the scary, cold, and possibly annoyed look on his face.“Tch! So noisy,” Maverick said quietly.She glared at him and stopped her screaming for a moment because her voice became raspy from shouting
Whitney gasped and puffed up her cheeks angrily.What a rude man? He dares to call her fatty...She already knows how chubby she is so he doesn't have to rub it in her face.“Being angry doesn't suit you. You look like a swollen puffed bun right now,” he said repeating her words to her.Whitney gasped dramatically and pointed her finger at him,“ You rude... Cocky...” She couldn't complete her statement cause the door suddenly opened and two hefty-looking bodyguards helped Maverick into his wheelchair.Whitney followed not waiting or expecting anyone to invite her out.As they slowly walked towards the house, she kept glancing at Maverick.Even with him being situated in a wheelchair, he looks so powerful.The cold expression on his face and his heavenly beauty make him look just like a powerful sleeping lion. Just that in his case, he is sitting not sleeping. ******“Babe!! I think the door is jammed. I can't open it,” Gia said as she tried opening the room door. She has dresse
A maid came forward and collected Owen's briefcase while greeting him as soon as he walked into the huge mansion whistling softly. While there in the hallway, he couldn't help but watched the maid go as her mini skirt swayed sideways, then shook his head and frowned as he couldn't believe he was just looking at a maid lustfully. He walked into the main sitting room and was very relieved to see both parents there. He didn't even notice the worried looks on their face as he rushed forward to complain about what had happened today. He greeted them and quickly said,“ Dad Whitney bashed my car. She has destroyed it so badly that I'll have to pay more money to repair it than how much I bought it.” “That daughter of mine is becoming a rogue nowadays. Why is she just causing trouble everywhere?” his father asked frowning slightly. Owen was very relieved to see his reaction. “That's not the most important thing right now. I can't find my

Alex stared at the report in his hand with his mouth wide open. His suspicion was right, Asher is his son.He returned the DNA test to the brown envelope and walked out of his office.He went to Karl's company and took Alice out, he was able to do that because it was her lunchtime."You have been staring at me for a while now and I think my body must have tons of holes" Alice joked as she felt uncomfortable with his stares.He stood up and walked to her side, he knelt and Alice's heart started beating so fast, she thought he was going to propose but he did the unexpected.He dropped a brown envelope on the table beside her food. "Read it," he said and she took it with fear.She opened it and saw it as a DNA test, she didn't check the name and just saw positive."Whose DNA test is this? Did you find one of your family? Is it a sibling?" She asked." Do you remember my strange questions about Asher's father?" He asked and she nodded." I am the monster who raped you. I am the monster wh
"That's not it, I just want to know if you hate him," he said. " I don't I'm just mad at him for not waiting until I woke up, I want to ask him why he did what he did" she replied truthfully"So if he apologizes will you forgive him?" He asked, " it's hard to decide but I don't want to think about it. Why are you asking such an impossible thing? "She wondered." How sure are you that it is impossible?" He asked and she chuckled, " he didn't show up for the past six years, you think he will show up now? I doubt it" she chuckled." Alice remember that I just want you to be happy," he saidThere was a brief silence. Alice was confused about why Alex is suddenly talking like that. Is something wrong?Is he giving up on her? She doesn't think she will ever find anyone who will treat her the same way he did."What are you talking about? Are you leaving again?" She asked." If you find out the truth you might hate me," he said"I don't think I can ever hate you," she said. He shook his head a
"Are you in love with him?" He asked as his voice broke. The truth will hurt him, if Alice is really in love with Alex then there is no space for him in her heart.And it looks like he had successfully turned her against him judging from how angry she is right now."Answer me!" He demanded when she didn't say anything but just stared at him as tears ran down from her eyes."You have no right over me. I don't owe you an explanation of what I feel. So, you don't get to ask me any questions about who I love" she said." So you do love him," he said, "why do you care? Why do you make me feel like it's my fault when it is all yours!" She pointed at him." Why do you make me feel guilty for something you are responsible for!? Why are you punishing me, Owen? Why?" She asked as her tears became uncontrollable." What are you talking about?" He asked finding every word of her's confusing. "Really you are going to pretend to be clueless? Geez who am I kidding, what was I expecting? That you wou
The duvet was on the floor, and papers were torn on the floor too, he walked closer and saw her swollen eyes. Her hair was tattered as if she were insane. She looks like she hasn't bathed since the day she was born."What the f*ck is this Gia? Have you finally lost your mind?" He asked as he rushed to open the windows for good ventilation."Owen stop shouting! I told you not to shout at me, it will affect my baby" she said but it came out as a whisper.She started rubbing her stomach as she said, "she is the only option I have to get Karl back"" Hey look at me," he said as he squat in front of her, he wanted to let her go and run to the bathroom to puke but before he does that, he needs to knock some senses into her."Karl is gone, all you have is your baby and us. So stop acting like a spoilt brat and get your ass off the ground, take a bath and come downstairs for breakfast" he said before standing up " Why should I?" Gia asked, "because your family needs you. Mom is downstairs wa
He was in the same club as Alice that day if that is true, the mistake he made can't be with her right? "It's been long enough" she replied to his question and he gulped down. "Alex do you still have feelings for me?" She asked after noticing the way he looked at her. "What if I do?" He asked with a nervous chuckle. "I knew it," she said, " Let's go to my office" she added and he nodded before igniting the car. *** Cole sat in a restaurant waiting for the person that called him. He already sent a message that they should meet in a restaurant. He has been sitting for five minutes and she is not there yet, he stood up about to leave when a middle-aged woman walked in. She looked suspicious because she kept staring at the back to see if anyone is following her. Cole recognized immediately to be doctor Ann's mother, Mrs. Jane. But why is she here? She can't be the person that called him can she? She doesn't look like the type of person who would murder someone else. It has to be
"I did nothing wrong! All I did was for the sake of our family" he retorted. " Family? Family you say? You did it all got your selfish interest" he spat. " Don't speak to me in that manner Cole I am your father and everything I did was for your sake, our family's sake" he said "Stop saying that! Do you even know what family means? You killed your flesh and blood. Your brother and sister-in-law and you said it is for the good of the family? For which family? The one you murdered or the one you are about to murder?" He asked. " Don't judge me when you don't understand my decisions!" He yelled, "don't expect me to understand your decisions when you don't explain them!" He yelled back too. They glared at each other for a while before Cole said, "don't bother explaining because no explanation can justify a murder" " I am not here to argue with you," he said in a calm tone, when are you returning home?" He asked. " I am not coming back to that hell you call a home" Cole spat. " You
Ann stared at nothing, it was not like she can see anything since it is dark. If she helps the big boss get rid of Whitney just like she got rid of Amber. She will finally be able to execute her plan.She will be beside Maverick whenever he's mourning. That was her original plan when she got rid of Amber but she couldn't do it because Maverick was affected and she felt guilty.She thought it was only Amber that will be in the car when the accident will happen and she will play the role of a good friend by consoling him.That was how she planned on winning his heart but everything changed when she found out Maverick was affected.But now she won't do something that will affect everyone else. She is going to do something that will affect just Whitney.But the big boss isn't after Whitney alone, he wants both Whitney and Maverick gone. She needs to do something so that Maverick won't be affected again.The last time he was lucky enough to just lose his leg, this time he might lose his li
"What did you just say?" Whitney asked as it felt like her ear was not functioning properly. "I said what if I married you because I love you?" He repeated the question and she smile nervously."Of course, it is a what if" she chuckled, awkwardly and he quickly corrected himself." I'm in love with you Whitney!" He blunted. "Stop pulling my legs, I never said I want you to tell me you love me," she said." I am not pulling your legs, I am seriously in love with you. I don't know if I was feeling it when I proposed or I didn't notice it but all I know right now is that I am insanely in love with you" he blunted." When did you start reading romance novels?" She asked and he frowned. Why is she talking about useless things when he is serious? "Whitney!" He frowned as she laughed covering her mouth and holding her stomach. "I am sorry if it sounds rude but you really looked like you memorized that line, and just decided to tell me, and after I will tell you how good your performance is
