Liam
When I got home, I called the nanny to come and stay with the kids for a couple of hours. Something was not sitting right with me; I could not take my mind off Lindy and where she might have gone. The woman was just discharged from the hospital, what could not wait until she was hundred percent alright before taking care of it?
When the nanny arrived, the kids were already showed and going to bed since they did not sleep much last night. I told her I will be back in a couple of hours and then went out to my car. I thought of calling Lindy before driving and asking her where she is but thought against it.
She doesn’t want to talk to me right now and I doubt she will tell me where she is. I took out my phone and went to find my iPhone. I was not ready for the location it gave me, “No, no, no this can’t be.” I drove out fast out of my yard racing to get to Mia’s house.
What is Lindy doing there, I
Liam I rushed into the hospital and went straight to the front desk. “Mia, Mia Black, she was brought in here about two hours ago,” I tell the lady and she clicks away on her computer then pauses before looking at me. “I will get a doctor for you, sir. Please wait here.” She tells me and I nod. She looks nervous but I brush that thought off my mind, there is no time to be caring about others at the moment, Mia is more important.After a few minutes of waiting the lady comes back with a doctor and I meet him halfway. “Doctor, I am Liam Brown and Mia is the mother of my child. I want to know how she is doing?” I don’t give the doctor time to speak as I introduce myself and ask about Mia’s condition. “Mr. Brown, I am sorry to tell you this, but we tried everything we could, but the patient lost a lot of blood, and the glass was lodged into a very delicate place. We lost the patient, I am sorr
LindyI sat on the cold bench in my cell thinking about everything that happened today and regretted it. I should have gone home and been with my kids then file for divorce and leave Liam. But I didn’t, I let my anger get the better of me and I wanted to confront that woman just once to tell her she has won. I never intended for things to get out of hand like this and now am in here. My husband is blaming me for her death, with good reason of course but I thought he will at least get me a lawyer and give me a fighting chance.I am still his wife and the mother of his children. How can he just leave me here to rot? I know I made a mistake, but does he hate me so much that he would leave me in here like this? I know he loved that woman, but I did not think he loved her more than he loved me. But today and what he said showed me he loved her more. My husband looked crushed by her death and did not seem bothered by my arrest.Liam and
CarlosJacob and I got out of the station. “Get her out, I don’t care how just get it done.” I tell him and he sighs shaking his head. “This is a difficult case, and the DA will not be lenient. Getting her off is close to impossible.” He tells me and walk closer to him then look him straight in the eye. “I don’t pay you so much money for you to tell me what can’t be done, get her off.” I tell him then walked away.I am so pissed at Liam right now and I want to see that bastard and punch him in the face. How could he do this to his wife, the mother of his children, how could he leave her in there without a lawyer? Was the love he had for the dead woman so strong that he would let his wife rot?I get into my car and call my guy that has been following Liam around. He picks up the call immediately. “Boss.” He answers. “Where is he?” he knows who I am talking abou
CarlosI was angry when I came here but after seeing Liam I don’t know anymore; the man is angry and hurting. I can see he loved that woman, and her death is tearing him apart. He is now taking out all his anger on Lindy and with good reason, but she is still his wife and the mother of his children.I must find a way to convince him that sending her to prison will not help him in any way. That this will only punish the children, I must make him see reason, Lindy was wrong, and an accident happened. We can’t change that now but sending her to prison will do more damage than good and Liam needs to realize that before it’s too late.But right now, I must make sure the news doesn’t get to the media. Getting out of the hotel was done in a hurry but when I got to my car and switched on the radio. All my energy drained from my body, the presenter on the radio was talking about what happened. I don’t know how much
“Breaking news, tycoon businessman Liam Brown’s wife was arrested yesterday morning for murdering her husband’s mistress. Our sources tell us that Mrs Brown saw the deceased with her husband after Mr Brown lied saying he was going away on business. Due to shock Mrs Brown was admitted to the hospital after she fainted. It is said that on the day Mrs Brown was released from the hospital, she sent her husband and children home. She told them she had something to take care of, little did Mr Brown know that his wife meant killing his mistress Ms Mia Black.Ms Black was the owner of the Black chain bakeries and has a son who father is unknown at this stage and a daughter whose father is said to be Mr Brown. We will bring you more on the story at it unfolds.” Tears escaped Lindy’s mother as she watched the morning news about her daughter, she woke up early this day to make breakfast for the kids and see if there w
LindyA week ago, I found out my husband never stopped cheating on me and that he even has a child with his mistress. A day after that I accidentally killed his mistress and got arrested. Two days after that I got served with divorce papers by my husband of over a decade. A day after that I was informed that I will never see my children again and today, a week later I got convicted. My lawyer didn’t have to fight much as I insisted on pleading guilty because I was. I took a life I deserve to be punished for it.A lot happened in a space of a week and it’s happening so fast that I can feel myself falling with no one to catch me. It’s like they have pulled a rug from right under my feet and I am falling hard. I didn’t even have time to wrap my hea
LindyTwo years have passed since I got arrested and I wish I could say things changed after that day, but they didn’t instead they got worse. I have suffered more beatings, especially after it was common knowledge what I was in for. They would curse and ask me one question when they beat me up, why did the mistress have to pay for my husband’s mistake? Why did she have to die and not my husband who approached her?They were right, I should have dealt with Liam and left Mia alone. But at the time I was not thinking so could haves and should haves will not help me with anything. In a way, I felt like I deserved the beatings; I took a life, a mother from her children and I can never take that back. I felt like the beatings were a way of me repenting for what
LiamBeing without Lindy and Mia has been difficult for me. Raising the kids alone has been even more difficult, they ask about their mothers every day. Now for Lindy’s children it’s easy to answer, no, it’s not easy, it's difficult but at least they know their mother is alive but having to tell Sam and Bella that their mother is in heaven and is not coming back is killing me.It also makes me resent Lindy even more for putting me in this position. Talking about Lindy, she sent word that she would like to see me; I have been putting it off for a while now and today I am finally going to hear what she wants. I parked at the prison and looked at the high walls. The woman I loved is locked in there, I wonder what is like now? I have never visited since she got arrested and I don’t even know why I came today. But I am here, I might as well find out what she wants.I go in and go through all the procedure before I am
Two days had passed, and Lindy has travelled to four places in these two days, leaving bodied wherever she went. Drake was, of course, impressed by her competence and efficiency.Now she was in Rome, she flew straight there after her last mission. Drake sent her the details about her family, and she was currently on her way to meet them.She didn’t have to hide from anyone here. She was in a foreign country and the odds of her being discovered were not that high. They were all in a restaurant having lunch when she walked in.The kids were all grown, and she couldn’t help but stand there and admire them. “Excuse me mam, how may I help you?” asked the hostess. “Oh, sorry am with them.” She said, pointing at Liam’s table.The hostess smiled and said, “You have a beautiful family, mam.” Lindy nodded and walked forward. Andy was the first to see her, and the smile on his face turned into a frown. Lindy’s heart sank when she saw than and her smile disappeared.“What’s wrong Andy?” asked Lia
They went to the lounge and sat on the couches together. Sitting close to each other. “Tell me, where have you been hiding?” lindy smiled shyly. “At the office, I enjoy being alone and working on what needs to be done. I am an introvert, you see, and things like these are not my scene.” She man smiled at her.He has been looking for a woman like this for a while, one that works and would challenge him intellectually. Not just spending his money, but one who knows how to make it as well.The type of woman that would look like a homeless person at home but crush you in the boardroom then looks like a model at events like these. That was his ideal wife, and this woman was ticking all his boxes.“I must say, a woman like you would make a good wife.” That hit a spot-on Lindy. She was a good wife, and where did that leave her? Here with him now, about to kill him to save herself. Men were not to be trusted. Not unless you work with them.“I hope I get to experience being a wife in my lifeti
Lindy took the parcel and hailed a taxi to the hotel that was booked for her. She was paranoid after getting the parcel and kept looking around to see if she was not followed. Even when she was in the taxi, she kept looking out the window and would hold her breath each time there was a car behind them and wonder if it was following them. The taxi finally came to a stop at the hotel, and she hurried inside. After doing all the paperwork she went up to her room. There was a dress on the bed and an invitation card to some fundraiser. There was another note. ‘He likes women, especially sophisticated ones. Have your hair in an updo style and play your part well.’ That was the message on the card and Lindy could not help but think this was a trap to finally get her killed. At the same time, she wanted to go back so she can get a status report on her children. It has been six months of not knowing and it was killing her. She desperately wanted to know what was going on in the outside world
That day Lindy buried the body of that man after making sure there was no one else there. She buried him behind the cabin as the body was too heavy for her to carry further.Since that day, more men would appear and attack her. One and sometimes two a week would come. They would come on any random day and now she had to train and be ready for when they come.She now wore their clothes, especially the warm jackets and their boots. She got better at hunting and would now use animal skin for blankets. She was getting much better at fighting as well.Now she struggled a little with killing the men that she didn’t know where they came from, but what she knew was that they wanted her dead and she didn’t know why.To survive, she made sure that she will train and get better. She swore she will continue to fight for survival until she found a way out of that place.But that had been a mission since there seems to be no way out. She was gone all over the forest but couldn’t find anything that
Lindy was taken that night by Drake’s men, of course she fought with everything she got but in the end she was not match for the well trained assassins Drake sent. They drugged her and left with her.The next time when she woke up she was in a cabin in the middle of nowhere. The place was cold because it snowed all the time there. She was freezing cold and there was no one in sight.She got up and looked around and only thing she could see was that there is snow all over the place and it looked like it was surrounded by the forest. She made fire to keep warm but promised to leave the place as soon as she could.But soon realized that she had no clothes or food in the cabin. She needed to hunt to eat and gather firewood to make a fire and keep warm. She only had the thin clothes she wore the day they took her.Because she wanted to survive, the first week she kept herself warm by making fire and sleeping by the fire. Ate the three tins of beef stew when she was hugry but soon ran out o
“Dad why don’t you date again, mom was arrested for years and now she is a fugitive of the law and aunt Mia is dead. Why don’t you date someone else, I promise all of us will be fine with it.” Caroline asked her father as they sat on the table having dinner.“She is right dad, you raised us well, and you have been everything we can ever ask for in a parent and it’s time for you to be happy again.” Andy added. “As long as you are happy am sure all of us will be happy too.” Andy continued.“I hear what you all are saying but I could never date again.” Their father told them and they looked at each other before Caroline asked again. “Why?” Liam sighed. “Because your mother and Mia were the only women for me.” He said then took a sip of his wine.“But you can find someone else dad who will be just as good as them and there are a lot of good single women out there who would love to date you.” Liam shook his head.“No other woman will ever be good enough for me. None of them will ever be Mi
The smirk on Drake’s face showed how proud he was, he averted his eyes from Lindy and looked at his men’s scared faces and chuckled. “I told you we can do this all night but, I think the lady needs to calm down or she will kill the rest all of you without blinking.” He scanned their faces getting all serious again.“I suggest you take this time to think about what happened here and maybe when we come back or before that you would have told us who the rat is.” He looked at them with cold eyes before looking at Lindy then nodded his head.Lindy walked to his side and stood looking at the men coldly. “The White’s are the enemy and if you are hiding your rat of a friend, then you will be treated as enemy as well. I believe you all know what happens to our enemies.” She gave them on last cold look before leading the way to the door.Drake followed suit with their guard hurrying to take their positions in front, be
The week went by slowly for Lindy; she was living in constant fear and was having nightmares. All this was caused by the fact that every morning when she opened the newspaper there was something about Jason and Andy.Every picture their man sent, Jason was with Andy and Lindy could not help but be scared by all this. She didn’t know what this meant and she couldn’t even bother Drake about it as he was also busy preparing for the war he believes is coming.To make matters worse, his man never got back to him. Usually, it would take a day or two for him to respond but it has been a week of silence on his end and Drake could not shake the feeling that something happened to him.He was thinking that Jason didn’t only come to see and to warn Lindy to stay away from his son. When he was there, he mentioned knowing about his man but he said he didn’t know who he was. But now that his man is not responding and Drake could not help but think that
The following day all the news outlets have published a picture of a business owner that was sponsoring five top students from five different universities to complete programs of their choice for free and offered them employment as soon as they finished their studies.They posted different pictures of the business owner with the different students in the newspapers. But one caught picture caught Drake’s attention, and it was a picture of Jason with Andy, Lindy’s firstborn. In the picture Jason is shaking Andy’s hand and, in another picture, they are facing the camera with both smiling widely.“Lindy!” Drake called out to her, she did not go home after Jason’s visit and slept at Drake’s mansion. When Drake called her like that, she came running thinking that there was trouble.When she got to where he was, she looked around with her gun in hand ready for anything. Jason’s visit shook her to the core that when Drake
