Blurb: Five years of marriage. A life of deceit. Gianna Nelson poured her heart and soul into Marino—her love, her trust, or even her goals of motherhood, all snatched away with the aid of his overbearing mom. In the give up, they discarded her like trash, leaving her shattered. But Gianna isn’t the same female they as soon as trampled on. She’s again, more difficult, wiser, and hell-bent on making them pay. With a powerful new best friend by her side, she’s set to dismantle the empire that Marino and his circle of relatives cherish, piece by piece. As Marino’s existence starts to fall apart, lengthy-hidden secrets and techniques come to moderate, and the lady he believed he had destroyed becomes his worst nightmare. Revenge is a dish first-rate served cold, however when the stakes get lethal, will Gianna’s thirst for justice consume her—or will she rise from the ruins of her past and capture her triumph?

"I will get this to my lawyer and build up the contract with it," he said at last neatly folding it back to its initial size, "okay" I responded hoping our awkward chitty chat had come to a blissful ending, as I made my saya"I must warn you, you will need to be convincing enough; my father has a nose for smelling plots miles away", he said, as a frown crossed his face. To his surprise, I laughed wholeheartedly at that. Everything seemed the same to me; I stood for some minutes, and I had to reemphasize how good I was at my job."Mr Thorn, I spent years of my life waiting for this promotion, and you already know that; I appreciate it, and I'm willing to help; it's important we track Nox down before things get out of hand. I am not about to jeopardize it for anything," I responded confidently, taking Thorn by surprise. He nodded in agreement with my tenacious attitude."To lay my curiosit
Thane cleared his throat as he felt uncomfortable with the awkward silence in the room, he could feel my intent gaze on him, and my silence hurt him. As he stood right there, he gazed lovingly at me despite my icy cold expression."I know this is silly of me to say, but thank you for coming; I understand why you are here, regardless of whatever,", I said, shamefaced, not daring to act cheerful as usual. I was silent for some seconds contemplating how best to address Thane's recklessness."All thanks to your thoughtful behaviour,. You get to accommodate everyone and me for much longer", I responded sarcastically " I am just glad you are feeling happy again", I added."By accommodating everyone else, I don't understand what you mean," Thane said, looking sternly at me. "You will. You shouldn't be here, you're risking your life. Are you ready to accommodate those on the run because of your supposed father, since the Thorn and Thane Mansion is a safe place now?" I asked.Thane took that
Nox picked up his phone and dialled a contact; the receiver answered with the second ring " Hello, I am back," he said, desperately expecting his reaction. " Welcome," Agar responded dryly, at the other end of the phone before cutting off the call."He seemed elated at the news of your glamorous return" Thorn said sarcastically, catching him off guard. Nox felt angry, but he hid his shaking hands behind him, holding Thorn's gaze; he didn't know Thane had been standing in the doorway watching him, "Neither are you in his good books", he responded, getting back at him.Thorn laughed hysterically, "I was never desperate for his approval; I prefer my freedom, unlike you ", he shot back at him. " Is this how we play it, hun? Rubbing it in my face every time, "he responded impatiently."You started it uncle!!!" Thorn responded, stressing the word "uncle". "I know I do not match up to you, Nox, no doubt about that, but guess what! You do not hold a lamp to Thane's abilities", he said, smil
I watched silently as the sound of the ticking clock repeated its rhymes. I was still in bed, and it was almost my wake-up time.I had awoken earlier than I used to. This alone seemed to me like a huge sign and indication of something I couldn't lay my hands on just yet. Shoving my long fingers through my hair, I sat up in my bed, my head drenched in thoughts of all I had been through for the past few days.I wanted so badly to connect the dots; I wanted so badly to have my revenge, even if it meant taking some hard roads.But I didn't know getting on this path and having my revenge would prove this hard. I pushed myself out of my silky bed into the washroom.As the showers of water flowed all over my body, it was to me a huge relief. My head ached already, from the raging thoughts I was having.I found myself soliloquizing as I had my bath, "We can't give up, Gianna, get things right, just have allies that would help you through" I said to myself, wiping my body with a towel.I hurri

I asked in a businesslike tone, making Thorn laugh; for the umpteenth time, I noticed how charming he looked. He
Thane cleared his throat as he felt uncomfortable with the awkward silence in the room, he felt my intent gaze on him, and my silence irked him. As he stood right there, he gazed lovingly at her despite my icy cold expression."I know this is silly of me to say, but thank you for saving us; I understand what you did by going into hiding sort of, he said, shamefaced, not daring to act cheerful as usual.

The calls of the sirens were getting closer, and he knew it was time to leave. He stuffed the note into his pocket and in a mad dash out of there, diving into the car. The tyres screeched as he tore out of the driveway, leaving the law enforcement miles behind. With his head spinning, he tried to make a decision. He couldn't even run to the police; they'd just use him as a convenient way of having amazing news again.His supposed father told him loudly and often that he was alone. His only option was to pray and rely on his yogi training. I was in danger of being harmed by the armed men, and he felt I might be killed trying to right this situation. Right the wrongs, at any price. His car growled as he stomped on it, whipping through the narrow lanes of the city. It was his night, and he would seize the opportunity. Thane controlled this part of the city through various connections he had with many people who owed him favours. He would bring in every single one of them to assist w
I and Rita had a lot of unfinished business. It was high time I pushed for vengeance to be gotten as soon as possible. I and Rita made sure to rest well, seeing how busy the next day would be.As I watched as our car left the driveway, I felt empty inside, like in an empty house with noise. We had to leave as well, but where the hell were we going to go? With the pandemonium he had escaped down there, it was no place for him to be going back onto the streets. While the reality of the situation was still dawning on him, his cousin was gone, and his friends were no longer to be trusted, possibly not even the father. His legs wobbled beneath him as he stood from the chair. Finally, we stopped driving and approached the house. The house was suffocating us, the walls closing in upon themselves as we felt more buried under guilt with each passing second. We sighed and headed to the garage. We had to get our heads cleared, and there was only one way: drive like a bat out of hell. And abou
"One last time!" The midwife instructed, "You're so close! You're so close, the baby's head is already 10cm gone!" The midwife continued to shout at me, urging me to push with all the might I could muster. Various midwives had already advised against the delivery of this particular child but I was determined not to lose an innocent life. “Argh!!!!” I tried my best to grab something to transfer this pain to but everything seemed flat and out of my grasp. Finally, the cry of a beautiful baby girl was heard crying loudly in the room. All the midwives looked up at the sky. It seemed brighter now; they looked pitifully at the beautiful baby girl; her fate was already sealed; she looked so sick, I heard one of them say.“Sorry, can we talk?” One of the midwives called out to the matron that had delivered my baby. The matron lifted her head and answered her call. “Don’t tell me you intend on keeping that child, don't make her suffer. I jerked up at this point. It was a bad dream! I p
The smell of antiseptic hit me as soon as I stepped out of the door to the doctor’s office.It was clean and clinical — to remind me that I was still in the hospital. I clutched my test result tightly, my palms were damp with nervous excitement. The hallway felt cold to my finger's touch as I leaned against the wall, bracing myself for what was to come.My heart was racing. I couldn't wait to call Marino and share the news. But just as I was about to dial his number, my phone rang, I checked to see who could be calling. My Uncle —Vivid on the spot for caller ID“Gianna, is everything fine with you and Marino?” His voice was serious with a tinge of concern.I laughed, trying to brush off the awkwardness I felt along with his question. "We're fine. Why do you ask?"There was a momentary silence before he continued, his voice was a bit hesitant. "I heard... Marino brought a pregnant woman to the hospital for a prenatal checkup the other day."I laughed harder, but a seed of disbelief
