When they finally left her house, Ashley went to the window to watch them as they left. She saw the two lovebirds and she shook her head. She wondered what could have made Tracy want to continue with the wedding.Ashley concluded that these are the kind of mistakes young ladies make when getting married. They are so carried away by the wedding ceremony not minding what will happen after the wedding."I wish her all the best in her marriage," She said. Susan went home and began to think of many things. She wondered why Tracy would be looking at her marriage and conclude that she would go ahead with the wedding. If Susan still had her way she would still leave Roland but this was something she had to live with.When Roland came back, he saw the countenance on his wife and began to question her but she never said a word. He insisted. "Can you please talk to me? What is the problem? Your face is not looking cheerful the same way I left. Is there any other thing that came up?""Why are y
Tracy's wedding was almost drawing closer. It was already in a week and everywhere was blooming. Ashley was also busy with Tracy doing some rounding up on the wedding preparation. Tracy was so excited. It was all over her. Anyone who saw her would know that something was actually going on but wouldn't know the reason why she was so happy.She never cared about what happened two weeks ago. She couldn't wait for that day to come. Anytime she comes to Ashley's house, The discussion was all about different colors, how the dancing steps would be, and how many guests they were expecting for the event. Ashley couldn't even have time for herself.Ashley was so busy arranging a whole lot of things that moment when she came over to her place and told her they would be going to the market to get the souvenirs that will be given to the invited guests.Ashley had to quickly prepare so as not to delay her friend because going to the shopping mall was just like a whole day's job. She quickly dressed
"I am here to tell everyone that Peter ran away with my money. You were supposed to service me one certain night but after paying a huge sum of money you ran away with your friend here Roland. He linked you up with me. I never knew that you were the one who used another number to call me" "Were you not the one who Roland linked me up with that night? You are looking at me. You don't have to deny it because this is your wedding day. I have been tracing you all around and I heard your wedding was today. Do you know how much I gave to you and you think I am going to forgive you and leave it like that? I am sorry everyone if I disrupted this wedding but he needs to pay me my money before I leave here" Everyone was so surprised. Tracy couldn't take it anymore. She fainted immediately. Ashley didn't know how to handle the whole situation. Susan on the other hand stumbled out of the church and went home. The whole church was disorganized and the parents of the bride held Peter and told him
Alex was preparing for the wedding of his friend. So he was seriously occupied even in his place of work and that of his friend. He doesn't actually have time for Mona Lisa but for the fact that she treated his visitor so badly made him mad at her. "How is the preparation going?" he asked his friend. Felix told him how stressful everything has been so Alex promised to support him with the little he has. But this time around Alex concluded that he was going to surprise his friend by getting him a car on his wedding day but nobody knew about them. Alex is someone who appreciates people when they are very close to him and he was very passionate about it. Felix has been his all-time friend right from when they were childhood so this is the best time to say thank you to all that he has done to him. Something came to Alex's mind and he wondered why he didn't ask that question at the moment. Since Susan knows about Monalisa that means she must have heard of Ashley and this was a mistake h
"I know that by now everyone will be looking for me. Even those that are planning evil against me. I just have to stay with my friend here in her house""How are you feeling?""I am okay. I think this is just the best place to stay to have peace of mind. I am sick and tired of everything I am passing through over there""But does that mean he believes everything he saw in the video?""I think he understood my text message and that was why he was trying to call back. I don't want his call anymore. I don't deserve him. I have really been through a lot. After facing the humiliation at his workplace and then I can't stand this particular video that was sent to him. I know Megan has a very bad motive towards me and she will not stop planning evil""I think that your boss really loves you. If he doesn't love you, he wouldn't care about you. Think of everything he has really done for you""Forget about all that he has done for me. My sanity is very important to me""Making you his secretary,

I didn't believe that she would be able to pick up the challenge and give it back to her. I always see her as someone that is very weak and fears people. But I am very surprised that she was able to challenge the two women. I am actually proud of her and I hope she will be able to continue like this. I can't keep on fighting for her, at least once in a while she should be able to fight for herself. I wish she was able to spend the night with me but she bluntly refused. I just noticed that she wasn't so desperate to be with me. If it was to be Megan, she would be so pleased to spend the night with me without being told. That was how she started living with me. She came to spend the night when I barely knew her and that was how she was leaving some of her things behind and bringing more to my house. I never saw anything in her till all these things started playing out. It is only a desperate woman that can be able to find her way through in a man's house without being told. I pick
The whole street was very wet and lonely, not even a single soul was seen outside. The birds were screeching. Gregory came out of his new apartment to look around his new environment but he discovered that everywhere was empty. This was unlike his former place where he must see people passing by and children riding their bicycles. He closed his door and sat down on the staircase. "Ouch! This place is wet"There was a serious downpour some minutes ago and it didn't occur to him that the stairs would be wet. He had to go inside to change his long pants and came outside again. This time he had to clean the stairs with a long mop stick. He enjoyed the quiet serenity of the place. Gregory actually left his old apartment because of George Chulley. He wouldn't want to have anything to do with him again. He had no choice than to start up life again, but where would he start from? He couldn't even have access to his daughter anymore. He felt sorry for what he did but he remembered what ha
Alex stepped into the house, he took note of a strand lying on the floor, he looked around for an item with weight, he took a few steps backward and threw the item toward the strand and just like he thought, an explosion occurred. George was on his way to the ship when he heard the explosion. “Yes! “ He yelled, laughing boisterously, Ashley who looked half dead, too weak from her wailing, mourning Alex just stood there as he pulled her toward the ship. Hearing the explosion, she was startled, she wondered why he would blow off the abandoned guest house when he was about to get away. “It's finally the end, we can finally start a new life, with nothing to worry about, Don't worry I will take care of the child since it means a lot to you, All you need to do is love me, much more than you did Alex” He blurted out, caressing her cheek, she slowly pulled away from him. He clenched his teeth, as he watched her pull away, he pulled away as he was filled with ecstasy from the realizati
Alex lay on the hospital bed, watching as the fluids flowed through the line into his veins. “Buzz!” his phone buzzed, he tilted his head to pick up his phone, and he saw a message from an unknown sender. He yanked himself off the bed and he punched his phone to check the message. “If you want your wife and child in one piece, show yourself, and let’s end this once and for all” Alex read it out, he looked around but no one was there, at that moment another message came in “Involve the police and she gets it!” Alex looked around panicking, the thoughts of Ashley stuck with the monster again scared the shit out of him, He groaned, flipping his phone out of sight. He was not ready to dance to George’s tune, more so he wanted all this to end as soon as possible. He looked to make sure no one was watching him, he pulled out his car keys from the shelf next to his bed. He got up, walked toward the door, peeped through, and rolled back to his ward, pacing around the room as Cops w
Alex opened his eyes slowly, staring at the ceiling with his lashes constantly falling on each other, he titled his head to his left but there was no one next to him, he titled to his right, same emptiness, he rose off his bed, he looked around him, nothing felt familiar to him, stroking his hair, he walked through the walkway before him. ''Hey Alex, you’re up" Ashley hurled toward himHis jaw dropped, and puffed out a sigh of relief, seeing Ashley hale and hearty with their child still in her belly. He dashed toward her, pulling her into his arms, ''Oh baby, I was so worried, I thought something bad happened" He shivered as he held her hands. She pulled away gently with an awkward smile, “Something did happen but I'm glad you’re okay, let’s have breakfast” She urged as they walked together “Ashley, where is this?” Alex asked as he looked around the unfamiliar house, “What do you mean? We bought this house months after we got married” Ashley answered as she set out the table f
Ashley slowly opened her eyes as she had shut them when he was about to pull the trigger. She felt the worst might have happened and was scared to see the horrible sight before her, she slowly looked at Alex to see if he was okay and thankfully he was, she looked at George whose arm was bleeding at the moment, Ashley gazed up to see who had shot him and gasped."I told you I was going to kill you myself." Mika stood in the doorway panting and holding her stomach in pain, Ashley recalled her being shot and thought she had passed away but thankfully she had saved them. George scoffed at her, aiming the other gun at her."If you really intended to kill me then you would aim for my chest or head." He sounded cocky, not a single shred of fear in his voice. Alex used the opportunity to launch an attack on George and punch him in the head thereby making him stagger forward, Alex took the gun from his hand and hit his hand where the bullet had been fired, he groaned in pain as blood gushed ou
I would do it and that's a promise." Alex assured him staring him right in the eye. "All you have to do is let my wife be and live your life."George burst out laughing at him knowing quite well, what the proposal was going to be. "Do you really think I'm that frightened that I can't leave whenever I want?""You can't leave, isn't it obvious to you already? You would need my help and the only way you can leave is if I help you." Alex tried to bargain with him but George didn't seem to be interested in the offer and just burst out laughing at him."I wonder what you would do if people going out with you wanted to help a mafia out of the country just to keep his girl.""She's not yours you idiot!" Alex ranged in anger even though he felt like crap he couldn't stand the nonsense being spoken by George. One more kick in the stomach and he would literally cough out all his intestines if this carried on."Do you really think things are going to go your way because you feel so?" Alex laug
A week had passed and still no response or return call from George which had Alex really worried, he had tried to track the number which was used in calling him but to no avail, it was as though it was erased and never existed. He got a call from an unknown number instantly answering it knowing who it was."If you want to talk, meet me at the location sent to you, bring someone along with you and she's screwed." George said from the other line of the phone and ended the call. Before he could say anything, the call ended. Alex quickly grabbed his keys making his way down the stairs, Tracy stood up at the sight of him making his way down the stairs so quickly wondering why he was in a rush."Have you found anything yet?" She asked him."He asked me to meet him up somewhere.""Let me go with you, maybe I could be of help somehow." She offered seeming somewhat restless, hoping that her friend was alright."Stay with Susan and I'll handle this, besides it could be dangerous for you to be
Ashley silently sat on the cold floor staring in silence and not knowing what to do in her situation, She believed that Susan would be fine and by now they would have realized she was nowhere to be found, She felt sad that she didn't tell Alex about her plan but hoped he would understand her decision.Her train of thought was disturbed by the sound of the metal door opening, she looked up to see George approaching her with a big smile on his face as though he deserved it."What seems to be on your mind, my lady?" He grinned, placing a can of soda and some bread beside her."Predicting your death, what else?" She retorted sarcastically, he let out a light chuckle and paced around the room looking around as though finding if she had created some sort of escape route."Hmmm, dying by your hands doesn't seem like a bad idea you know? I won't make that possible because I don't want your hands to be stained with blood." He winked at her, and she rolled her eyes, staring at the junk beside h
Ashley looked around the place to see if anyone was coming and when she saw no one, she became more frightened, she had left the house under Alex's nose but this was the sacrifice she had to make to ensure the safety of Susan."Thought you weren't going to come."George snickered from behind, she jerked her head to look at him and her body followed, a frown shown on her face as she gazed at him in hatred."Have you set her free?" She asked and he nodded at her reassuringly but it was hard to believe his words but she had no other option. "So what are you going to do to me now?" "Continue from where we stopped." He smirked at her, dragging her by the hair and pulling her closer. She screamed in pain trying hard to release herself from his grip but to no avail. "Did you really think that I would let it slide you bitch?""I dont care if you're angry, you deserve to die.""Who is talking about dying? If at all anyone needs to die first it should be that baby in your belly." He smirked a
Ashley took out the tracker she had in her hair and handed it over to Tracy."I'm glad you're safe, I hope your didn't get hurt." Alex observed her body for any signs of injuries but she was okay."You don't have to worry too much darling, I'm doing just fine." She assured him."What happened to Mika?" He asked her and her face instantly turned to a frown."She betrayed us, she had intentionally exchanged the ring tracker to divert the attention of the cops but thankfully I had another which she had no idea about." ,shley explained."I'm sorry about that… for putting you and our baby in danger." He held her hand in his with a guilty face."It's alright but I didn't have trust for her from the onset and thankfully it paid off." She shrugged."The doctor would be here soon as you requested," Tracy told Alex who nodded frantically, Ashley looked at him in confusion wondering why he called the doctor."What's wrong?" She asked scrunching her brows and waiting for him to respond."I need t
