Heiress's Haunted Heart Chapter 7
"Sorry, I have to leave now," Adrienne said politely to Ryan."What's wrong? What happened?" Ryan asked, his concern evident."Oh, it's nothing major. Just an accident. I need to head there right away," Adrienne explained."Oh...do you want a ride?" he offered."I actually drove here, but thank you," Adrienne declined graciously."Well, I didn't even drive," Ryan admitted."What? You just offered to drive me a few minutes ago. How were you planning to go back?" Adrienne questioned."Okay, let me explain. I didn't drive here, but I was going to call my driver to bring the car. Our office is only a twenty-minute walk from this coffee shop, so I decided to walk. It's like a mini workout," Ryan explained."Oh, that's interesting. Do you want me to drop you off at your office?" Adrienne kindly offered."No need, thanks. I'd rather not explain myself to anyone," Ryan replied."What do you mean?" Adrienne inquired curiously."Just avoiding those judgmental looks," Ryan chuckled, and they bot

As Adrienne entered the hospital, a chorus of sounds filled the air. Suddenly, the vibrant energy of the facility became unmistakable. The constant buzz of voices, intermingled with the sporadic ringing of phones, orchestrated a symphony of activity. The sterile scent of disinfectant floated about, lending an aura of cleanliness and organization to the environment.Nurses swiftly passed by, their soft-soled shoes creating a faint echo as they scuttled from room to room, tending to the needs of the patients. The steady beeping and whirring of medical equipment in the background added a sense of urgency to the atmosphere, serving as a reminder of the constant monitoring and care being provided.Intermittently, conversations between doctors and their patients could be heard. Filled with empathy and reassurance, these exchanges brought moments of respite within the cacophony. Laughter and chatter between visitors also provided a small escape from the seriousness that hung in the air.The

Ryan stood on the balcony of his room, lost in thought, with a cigarette between his fingers. He took occasional puffs, inhaling the smoke deep into his lungs."What does Anabelle have on dad?" he pondered aloud. His phone chimed from inside the room, capturing his attention. Ryan entered and grabbed his phone.A message from a friend appeared on the screen: "Yo, where should we meet? I'm in your area. Should I come over?"Replying swiftly, Ryan typed, "Yes, come over. Let's meet here."Ryan swiftly changed into casual shorts and a t-shirt, knowing his friend would arrive soon. He descended the stairs to the lounge, where he intended to wait."Bro!" Andrew exclaimed upon entering Ryan's house."Dude!" Ryan greeted Andrew, walking towards him and shaking his hand."What's up? Where's my little man?" Andrew inquired, referring to Brian."Oh, he'll be staying with my mom for a while," Ryan explained as they settled into their seats."Really? What about school?" Andrew probed further."He

Adrienne looked absolutely stunning in her glamorous after-party dress. The floor-length gown hugged her figure, boasting a striking shade of midnight blue.

The dress boasted a plunging neckline that accentuated Adrienne's curves, and a thigh-high slit that revealed just the right amount of leg, exuding confidence and allure.Her makeup was flawlessly executed, enhancing her natural beauty. Adrienne's eyes were adorned with a smoky eyeshadow in deep plum and charcoal shades, making her piercing green eyes appear even more captivating. Long, voluminous lashes framed her eyes, adding a touch of drama. Her sculpted cheekbones were gently dusted with warm blush, giving her complexion a healthy glow. The stunning red lipstick completed her glamorous look.Adrienne's choice of heels perfectly complemented her ensemble. She wore sparkling silver stilett

"What did you just say?" Adrienne asked Ryan once again."I just said that I am skilled at turning any situation into a profitable one. Why are you so upset?" Ryan inquired, clearly confused by her reaction.Adrienne returned to her seat, taking a moment to compose herself.Daniel joined them, announcing, "The car is ready. Let's go, Adrienne.""Allow her to sit here for a few minutes. She became upset over something so trivial. I believe she needs a moment to collect herself," Ryan advised Daniel."My love, what's the matter?" Daniel asked, crouching beside her and gently caressing her cheek with his thumb."Let's just go now," Adrienne replied, standing up. Daniel held her hand as they exited the room together.They climbed into the car, and Daniel turned to Adrienne, questioning, "What happened? Did he say something hurtful to you?""No, it wasn't anything serious. I simply remembered something," Adrienne confessed."Oh, I see. I suppose that's a good thing. What did you remember?

"I have an uncanny ability to turn a profit in any situation, even the most challenging circumstances," Adrienne stated once more, her gaze fixed on the view outside the window."What's the matter? First, you show up unannounced, and now you keep repeating that statement. What's going on?" He questioned, extending a glass of wine towards her."Someone once said that to me. I can't seem to get it out of my head. It keeps replaying, and I don't understand why," Adrienne replied, her shoulders drooping with sadness."Don't force yourself to remember, alright? Let it come naturally," he reassured, positioning himself behind Adrienne. His hands circled her waist before gently massaging it. Their eyes remained fixed on the view outside.Adrienne accidentally knocked her wine glass onto the window sill and turned to face him. Her hands found their place around his neck as she pulled him closer, their noses now touching. As his breath caressed her face, Adrienne closed her eyes."Why won't yo

Adrienne stepped off the elevator, finding herself on the top floor. She followed the directions given to her from the reception lounge, leading her to the secretary of the CEO's office."Oh, so you were the secretary," Adrienne acknowledged Juliette as she entered her office."Welcome, ma'am. How may I assist you?" Juliette responded, attempting to maintain professionalism."Why were you giving me odd looks at the party a few days ago?" Adrienne inquired, puzzled by Juliette's behavior."I'm sorry, ma'am, but I have no idea what you're referring to," Juliette denied any knowledge."Is Ryan in? I informed him that I would be stopping by today," Adrienne inquired."Yes, let me inform him of your presence," Juliette offered, reaching for the telephone."Forget about that," Adrienne dismissed, taking it upon herself to enter the office."No, you can't just..." Juliette attempted to intervene, but Adrienne had already made her way in. Adrienne walked gracefully towards Ryan's desk, placi

"Are you actually firing me?" Juliette asked, clearly shocked."Yes, I am," Ryan confirmed."Um...why? Why are you firing me? I demand -and deserve- an explanation," Juliette insisted."You don't know why?" Ryan questioned."If I knew why, I wouldn't bother asking you in the first place," Juliette responded, her tone changing.Ryan stood up from his seat, his movements tense yet purposeful as he moved towards Juliette. He reached out, gently resting his hands on her waist and pulling her closer, until she was standing between his legs. His touch both comforting and confusing."H-hey, calm down, pretty lady. It's not that serious," Ryan stuttered, trying to regain control of the situation. His touch lingered, his fingers absentmindedly stroking her hair as he spoke. "We have something special, right?" Ryan whispered, gently stroking her hair. But Juliette remained silent."Don't you want to talk to me?" Ryan pressed."Why are you firing me?" Juliette asked, her voice filled with confu

"Lincoln is dead."Adrienne was shocked."He is dead? Just like that? Why? How?" She asked.Richard was silent, and when she looked into his eyes, she saw the answers to her questions."You are responsible for this? You had him killed?""I'm sorry. I had to do it for Juliette. I know I should have told you, but I didn't want to," Richard said.Adrienne was speechless. She closed her eyes, trying to piece together exactly how she felt about the situation."I should give you some time to yourself." He wanted to leave, but Adrienne pushed him back, making him lie on the bed.She climbed over him and grabbed his chin."Why should I be mad at you? He deserved to die," Adrienne said softly, lowering her head to kiss him.Richard was so relieved, and he kissed her back passionately.She moved her lips to his jaw, his neck, and his chest and traced a path down to his waistline.She gazed at him with a sultry look in her eyes as she slipped her hands into his pants and set his excited member f

"Prison? What the hell?" Adrienne's voice quivered."Juliette gave that document to the police. She wanted to hurt me after I refused to take her side. The document had evidence of my illegal arms deals," Richard said."Arms deals? That's how you got wealthy, right?" Adrienne asked and Richard nodded."The Chief offered me a deal. He said he would give me the video Rosa sent to the police if I let him arrest me as a 'big criminal' to boost his promotion chances," Richard explained."What? No, that's a terrible deal! That's like trading a bread factory for a loaf of bread. You didn't agree to that, did you?" Adrienne said."Of course not. Rosa's video was useless to us. But I thought about it. I would get caught sooner or later if someone found out, or one of my partners got busted, or someone dug into my past. I know the Chief, so he's being easy on me. He could end our 'relationship' and arrest me with what he has. Luckily, that's not the case. If or when he gets promoted, there

"Boss? He hasn't called himself that in a while," Adrienne thought, smiling shyly.She sniffed the roses and they smelled lovely. She hoped there was a note inside, but there wasn't.She remembered the last time he sent her flowers with a note. It was months ago and the note only had 'I' on it."Where did I put it?" She wondered, searching her drawers. She finally found the note and looked at it for a few seconds."He never finished this sentence," Adrienne said.She set it aside and put on the dress.The dress was black with a strap and a sweetheart neckline and a ruched bust. It had mesh inserts at the waist with vertical lines and draped fabric that wrapped around the midsection. The slit on one side was indeed dangerously high."I am sure he can survive a little skin," Adrienne thought as she admired the dress.Wait. Where are we meeting? Adrienne wondered.She read the note again and he didn't say where they were meeting, he just said 'wear this tonight'.Does he want to meet at

"Hello, Adrienne," he said.She spun around and saw Ryan. Her eyes widened in shock."You're the witness? You're testifying against me?" she exclaimed."What witness? I'm here to watch the trial. What are you talking about?" he asked, puzzled.She snorted and turned away. "Whatever," she muttered, crossing her arms.He sat behind her, still taken aback by her coldness.The door opened again, and this time, the footsteps were that of a stiletto. It was a woman.Everyone turned to see who it was, and it was Annabelle.Adrienne scoffed. "She didn't tell me she was coming to Nigeria for the trial."As Annabelle got closer, Adrienne waved at her, but Annabelle ignored her and went straight to the witness stand.Adrienne's jaw dropped. Annabelle was the witness? After everything she had done for her?She glared at her as she swore the oath."You're in for a rude awakening," Annabelle whispered as she sat down.Adrienne felt her heart pounding, her forehead sweating, and her throat tighten

Adrienne felt a surge of anxiety as she entered the courtroom with Richard by her side. The day was finally here; Linc's trial.She glanced at the defendants' table, where Lincoln sat with his lawyer. He looked smug and confident, as if he had nothing to worry about. He met her gaze and smirked, making her shiver. It brought back memories of the nights she was locked up in that old farmhouse.She squeezed Richard's hand, grateful for his support. He had been her rock throughout this ordeal, always there to comfort her, protect her, and encourage her.The judge entered the room and everyone stood up. The trial began, and Adrienne listened as her lawyer presented the charges and the evidence against Lincoln. She felt a surge of hope as she saw the jury's expressions of shock and disgust. She hoped that they would see Lincoln for what he was: a monster who deserved to rot in jail.Then it was Lincoln's lawyer's turn to speak. He stood up and cleared his throat, looking at the jury with

Linc's body was thrown out of the car and onto the sidewalk as the car speedily drove off. He groaned in pain on the floor. A concerned stranger rushed to Linc's side to help him up, but Linc aggressively pushed the man away. This made other passersby ignore Linc and cross to the other side of the road. Despite the pain, he managed to stand up on his feet, his whole body hurting. As he looked around, trying to decipher his exact location, his eyes spotted a police station, and a smirk etched onto his face."They think they can get away with treating me like this," Linc said maliciously as he limped to the police station. Richard had given him a really bad beating, and he couldn't even walk properly. Every breath Linc took hurt him in his chest because of the impact of Richard's punches. "Darn you, Richard!" Linc cursed.As he entered the station, he collapsed onto the floor, putting on a show. "Help me, please. Help me. I was kidnapped by the Oh so famous Adrienne Davison and her

She hesitantly opened the files, and a flood of videos and photos appeared on the screen."That's a lot," Richard observed.Adrienne clicked on the first video, which showed Linc and Juliette having sex."Huh? Why would she send me this? I thought she promised something life-changing?" Adrienne rolled her eyes in frustration and flung her phone aside."You've been quick to lose patience over small things lately. Could it be the pregnancy hormones?" Richard inquired, concern lacing his voice."Ugh!" Adrienne exhaled in annoyance.Sensing her irritation, Richard extended his hand to soothe her by gently patting her back."Why don't we take our time and carefully review everything on the card?" he suggested."Okay. I'm sorry for snapping," she said with a soft, apologetic tone."That's better," Richard said, smoothing her hair affectionately."Come here," he gestured.Richard picked up the discarded phone, settled back on the bed, and Adrienne snuggled up to him, resting her head on his

Adrienne and Richard kissed passionately while Adrienne gently rode Richard on the bed. It was a slow and intimate dance as Richard’s hands caressed and worshipped her curves.He had arrived at the hotel and their brief conversation turned into a passionate encounter. After their lovemaking, Adrienne laid her forehead on Richard's."That was beautiful," he said, softly caressing her left cheek with his thumb.He then gripped her waist firmly and quickly flipped her over, hovering above her now. He looked at her deeply, still enjoying the afterglow of their passion."Why did you do that? I didn't want you to come out of me yet. I'm feeling hollow now. Empty!" Adrienne whined playfully, feigning annoyance.Richard chuckled. "Come on. We need to shower, and we have to be careful. I don't want to accidentally bump into Amelia. Look how quickly she's growing inside you," he said, rubbing Adrienne's belly."It's Ethan, and I wasn't even moving, so there's no way you could have hit him," Ad

Adrienne had cried herself to sleep and woke up in the evening. She checked her phone and saw tons of missed calls and messages from Richard."Why didn't you say anything?""Are you okay? Did something happen?""Please call me."Those were some of the texts from Richard. She didn't know what to say or how to explain her feelings and instead of replying to his texts or calling him back, she texted Lisa. She made a list of things she needed Lisa to bring and sent it along with the address.Then, Adrienne washed her face, went downstairs, and got into her car.***"What's going on? What are we doing here?" Lisa asked Adrienne as she followed her, carrying two big bags in her hands.Adrienne ignored her and walked quickly towards the entrance of the building. It was a large, white mansion with a sign that read "Joygood Memorial Park". Lisa had a bad feeling about this place. It was a private cemetery for the rich and powerful, where they buried their secrets and scandals, not just the
