The coldness of the liquid hit my face and I squeezed my eyes,taking delight in how it makes my body shake in apprehension.I placed my hands at both sides of the sink and look at the drips of water radiating on my cheeks.My eyes were red from all the cries.Now, I'm just numb to all the feelings of this world.How low would they go just to get my inheritance?I guess I was never considered a family,not even for once,not even to the tiniest bit!How could they do this?!My fingers curled up on the sink as I tried to rein my wrath in.I was going to move on with the wedding before, thinking it was only a cheat!No wonder Daniel acted less romantic towards me!I thought it was because he was older or something!Still,I wanted to hold on to him!I...Tears pooled up in my eyes and i gritted my teeth.I loved him,I loved my stepbrother!I considered him my everything,my all.But..but..I inhaled a deep breath. I have to take action else,I won't be able to overcome these enemies of mine.
The other end went silent after I had made my purpose of calling him known to him.I blinked in anxiousness.Does he also thinks I am aiming too high?I eat my lips,my heart thudding hard in my chest as if trying to burst out.If i get a no from him,I think it would end up flying out while I just slump to the floor till death comes!"Angela, weren't you supposed to be getting married to a Daniel boy?"his question csme out calmer.My heart drops in my mouth and my bones tensed up as traces of my veins pierced through my skin."Yo-you know about my marriage?"He laughs softly. "Should that be a secret,Angela? You're a Wilson offspring so of course,the world knows about what is happening in three days time!"his voice rang out of the phone's speaker.A thick saliva forms ip in my throat and I grunt to get it to clear up."I should have informed you though." I wasn't happy he got to know that online."No donuts, Angela! So,will you tell me what's going on now?"he chimes.I pressed both eye
My heads slopes downwards and a series of thoughts broke into my mind."As always, it's an everyday - moment of fun here on our sessions. Today's episode is a bit special as we will be diving into the most requested information on a billionaire by our listeners.Alright,are we cool? Take a deep breath in everyone, as this news would blow you away." The speaker enthused.I didn't actually believe I would draw that breath in as instructed.The driver pulled the car behind another with more lined up far ahead.Traffick!"There is an hold - up on the way to Houston.With streetlights above and cars' headlights, your radio turned on,and you tuned in, you,our listeners are excited for this traffick!"I drummed my finger on my mouth, already getting getting impatient.Why won't he just spill the tea already?!"There's another route we can take actually, ma'am and it's a short cut, should I?"the driver threw his head back to ask me.A look of confusion sprang up in between my brows as I gla
I walk with calculated steps towards the direction the receptionist pointed to be SPACE FIVE.I stopped before the room,throwing a glance in at the man seated through the transparent door.My chest knotted up and i put my palm on it,breathing out heavily.Just then,his eyes darted towards me and I side - stepped to the wall,my back on it as I tried to steady my fast breathing pace.What's happening?I can't just stop thinking about the man - Winslow. He seems more better, why?!He is top one and more mysterious than this man.But what I want isn't their being mysterious but how powerful they are!"AND he wields more power than someone called Simeon does?!" My second was screaming at me in my head.My shoulders moves up unconsciously as I puffed out.But that's more like a risk!What is the feasibility of him coming to a ceremony he was invited to when it's three days away?And I can't meet him personally as..I paused. Uncle Gate managed to make me meet Simeon somehow, didn't he?Di
*Back To Present*.. Angela's Pov.My eyes shrinks up in my sleep before it finally opens.My eyelashes feels too heavy to lift. I felt drained and lost.After staying in that position for some minutes,I pulled myself together and got off the bed.I bathed, get myself donned in a casual outfit and headed down for breakfast.Miguel's head turned to look at me when i stepped inside the room."You seem a little better today,"Vanessa grins, coming out of the kitchen with a small pot which she placed in the middle of other dishes.She opens it and the steam flares up,releasing the palatable aroma of the soup."Well,a bit."i chuckles.She gave a gentle nod at me with a warm smile before heading back inside.I pulled one of the chairs back and sat down."Good morning."i said to him.He nodded. Well, can't he reply with his mouth?"Are you going out? Isn't today supposed to be Sunday? A special day?"I questioned.He dropped the slice of bread in his hand and sprang up."All days are the
"Does anyone have a wedding coming up soon with their spouse?" The bride's sudden question threw the hall into total silence. A white bird flew to the hall,and made a duck at the entrance then chirps before leaping up into the sky. The couples -to-be were standing at the altar and the priest had just read the vow to the wife but she asked that instead of saying "I do". A woman that was seated in one of the chairs in the front row gave her a look that threatens to break her bones if she doesn't quit her acting. Everything has been going on perfectly... The chest of the bride's moves up in her multi billion - dollar dress as she heaved out a deep breath. Her fragile fingers curled up into a soft fist. The priest casted her a look up from his glasses before looking back at the book in his hand,reading her the vow again. "Do you,Angela Wilson,promise to have and love this man as..." "Oh, priest..take a pause there."Angel's breath ruffles as she chuckled sadly. Her mother and s
(EVERY INCIDENTS AND WORDS ARE FICTITIOUS.‼️)"Well,uhm!"the priest cleared his throat loudly."According to the old testament,such person must be stoned,as it is an abomination, something barbaric, unaccepted,seen as vile,and vulgar! to have an intercourse with a woman you're still courting or hasn't married.In reference to the new testament,such - a person..."his eyes swept Daniel up in a single look."Shall not be stoned,nor judged, but a greater punishment awaits the person in the kingdom above."Angela cocked a smile."Oh, what's this?" "Isn't this supposed to be a rich daughter's wedding?""Beat me! This isn't wedding but a house of noise!"People exchanged derogatory words among themselves.Lena turns around and gave a snort,with blazing eyes,before poking her mother again."Don't just wait for her to finish ruining the name you and dad went through so much to build. It's obvious... she's a psycho!""Always wait for the climax of the story,Elena."her mom rests her jaw on her
Angela's pov. I,Angela Wilson,am here today to wed Mr Winslow, contrary to the name - Earnshaw you saw on the invitation letter." I announced boldly,my eyes glowing in determination. "What the fvck is she saying right now?"I heard Lena snapped in fury. "Have you gone banana? You shouldn't mess with Winslow,you know how it is - the news surrounding him. You just wanna badly destroy yourself,huh?"Daniel pulled me closer to his body. My heart hammered against my chest. I was reckless,I know,but this is the only opportunity I've got to change my fate. I could have just called the wedding off and leave but hell would be waiting to let loose for me. My only ray of hope - my eyes darted to the man that stared right back at me with an unreadable expression. Was he angry? Confused? Was he going to reject me? - oh Lord the embarrassment would be too much for me to handle if he actually does that. From what I've learnt about him, his greatest enemy is marriage. But I also heard he

I slammed the door to my room shut,before crouching on my legs, puffing out some air.My eyes were already boiling water..I was trying to keep it at bay,but that made it even worse.I ruffled my hair, finally removing the barrier I had put on my tears.I am hurt. I feel so hurt.Many would do a dirty deed just to be here,in my shoes..an offspring of Wilson..or even adopted daughter.But I'm more like a servant! Just that I don't work..but every choices of my life is made by my mom!It's enough that she gave me credit card with little funds. I can't even pay online with it. Can't go out, nothing!But she wants me to turn it in?"Never! You're not doing that,Angela. You've had enough!"I sniffed and got up.I went to pick my broken phone up and heaved a sigh.It's a mess. I dropped it on the floor, going to sit before my laptop.I opened it and a message popped up on the top of the screen from Instagram.I tapped on it to make it show in full view.It reads; Check it out yourself and ca
My back against the wall,legs curled up,and hands on my thigh...I remain stilled in the dark room. I was now putting on my pajamas. I can't get his words off my mind. My mouth has been sour ever since. I can no more focus on my happiness - i thought I could only think about that. I'm easy to be happy,easy to be sad. I can't get people's words out of my ears easily. "That habit of yours is bad,Angela. People will talk all those kinds of talks; be it negative or positive. If you let them all get to you, you'll crumble. You have to sieve words. Sieve them,then decide what your own word would be. It's your world, afterall,and only your voice matters." dad's calm voice temporarily stilled the storm in my mind. "Madam wants you to eat dinner, ma'am." A knock sounded and I heard retreating steps. Food. At the thought of that,my stomach rumbles. I placed my legs on the floor, standing up. I fumbled for the light switch and switched on the room's blue light. I wore my
"It has to be a great wedding in a gazillion,"a smile curves my lip, rendering it moisty in sheer delight. The long mirror has small lights around it,and with me trying it out for the third time today,in this dark room, with only the purple lights on...it feels celestial! The light lits up the room in a gentle and soft glow. My white gown stood out,my skin shining its stars brightly like a sun. My brown hair was thrown on my left shoulder and it flows down to my waist. I waa left an untouched beauty...a princess. One princes from the neighboring town would fight till death for. I heaved out a heavy sigh. "It's three days from now,Angela..and we are so teary already.."a grateful tear stained my cheek. I am so happy. I can't contain it - The whole world is too small of a box to accommodate my joy. My stomach spirals in nervousness,a sign of freedom..from mother,and sister. A sign of new life..with the man of — My cheeks heated up. —man of my dreams. A sweet to
"Angela,can you please open this door? You haven't eaten anything and you need the strength."I heard Vanessa call out to me for the hundredth time.I heaved out a sigh and squirmed my lips.The pillow was thoroughly soaked with my tears."I'll drop the food here then. Even if you want to continue crying,at least get something to eat so you'll get energy to bring more tears out."I heard her say before she retreated.I palmed my face. I have to stop crying...I have to.I sniffed in, feeling coldness overwhelm my body and a terrible headache taking over control with it.My quiet sobs fills the room.I stayed like that for an hour. Just staring at the ceiling and tearing up like a kid.This was my side that dad loathes the more when he was still alive."Why do you always cry when you have more than enough power to get back at those who hurt you?!"his words resounded in my ears.He even thought maybe it was a disorder and took me to different doctors in different countries.It sounds ridi
