His Little Pawn The letter
Sapphire's POVI walked into the mansion. Everyone would be back from the office by now except Brenda who was a stay at home wife. They said she was so talentless in business and had been a model but for some reason her career ended when she married Ronald. "Mrs Lauren, if you walk too fast on these floors you might slip" Janet said as she hurried behind me. "Do I look like a toddler to you Janet? I snapped and shot her a cold look. "Oh no, ma'am I.…."You're back. Welcome" That was Brenda's voice. She smiled softly. She seemed like such a gentle soul. I hoped that was what she really was. "Ah….yes. Thanks""Didn't you go shopping? Where's your stuff?"Hmm?Right, my shopping bags. Travis had driven away with them probably. I smiled. "It's with the driver. He'll bring it up himself""Alright. Dinner will be ready soon, you mind helping me in the kitchen?She cooked? But there were like a hundred servants in the mansion""Oh, em….sure"She moved away and I followed hurriedly leavi

The next day, I woke up earlier than usual. Lance wasn't in the room at the time. I didn't care the least anyway as I had better things to think about.Like the paper from last night. I heard a knock from the door. "It's me Mrs Lauren, are you awake?I snorted. Wouldn't that wake me up if I wasn't? "I'm awake"Janet pushed the door and walked in with a tray in her hands. I raised a brow. "Mrs Brenda sent this to you. It's coconut milk tea. She says it helps the skin when you take it in the early hours of the day"Hm. She was really making such an attempt to bond, wasn't she? She must be lonely in the mansion. Unfortunately, I wouldn't always be around like she expected. I had some plans up my sleeve. "Alright. Drop it there. Thank you. Hey, do you know whose handwriting this is?I flashed the paper in Janet's face and she shook her head. "Not in the slightest ma'am ""Are you serious? Doesn't it belong to anyone here in the mansion?"Ma'am, I was only hired just recently upon you

Third person POVRonald was dressing up in preparation for his trip when Brenda walked into the room."Oh, you're almost ready? The flight doesn't leave for the next three hours though" She said sadly. "So what? I should stay home with you? I'll pass. I have better places to be""Like with your multiple girlfriends? She muttered under breathe and he glared at her. "What did you say?"I said it's not because of me but Junior. He was expecting you'd go watch his game for 20 minutes at least. You can go to the airport after that. You never go to any of his games""What does he have you for? Do your job Brenda and make yourself useful " He spat and she sighed. He carried his briefcase but she held it. "Wait. Ronald…Junior…Junior needs a father in his life. You're not always around. He isn't happy about it""Pfft. Then make him happy. I was raised by nannies all my life. You don't see whining. Get out of my way woman" He pushed her away violently and she almost fell. She gasped and tear

Lance's POVWilliams and I were having a little discussion when he stopped all of a sudden. "Isn't that your wife? He said and I raised a brow. I turned and I saw her standing behind us. There was this strange way she looked at Williams that I couldn't understand. What the hell was she doing here and why now?"Why the hell are you here? I snapped. "Who is that? She shot at me glaring at Williams. "Why the fuck do you care? Didn't you say not to meddle in your business? I expect the same courtesy"Williams stood up with a smile and stretched his hand for a handshake."Em…sorry. You must be Lauren. I'm Williams, Lance's friend""Hmm. Friend indeed" She scoffed, rolled her eyes and walked away leaving his hand hanging. Williams was stunned. "Oh…..she's more of tigress than you told me""She's been acting that way ever since Elisa tried to assassinate her""Your mother tried to assassinate her? His eyes bulged. "She also found out the reason I married her so she's being more defiant
His Little Pawn You drive me crazy
When Ronald came back to the company, he was applauded and celebrated for securing the contract. The fool had been all smiles that day as he bragged on and on. Everyone who had been doubtful were relieved and surprised. Pearl in particular was stunned. "Doesn't this seem too easy? There's no way Ronald could have gotten that contract. Not with his skills. He probably had his assistants do all the work" She ranted. "And you came all the way to my office to tell me that? I raised a brow. She sighed. "Doesn't it bother you Lance? I mean we both know Ronald. We grew up together! That guy's an idiot. He might have gotten the contract but he'll ruin the company eventually! Did you know since he became MD, we've encountered an 8% decline in profits""Babe, your father told you not to talk about that" Devon muttered as he stood by a corner. I had suspected Ronald's current position would affect the company but I never thought it would be that bad so soon. Why would grandfather let this h
His Little Pawn The surprise
A small party was organized to celebrate Ronald's successful sealing of the contract. Greg spearheaded the entire thing. After all, he said every success deserved a worthy celebration.Lance was putting on his shirt when Sapphire walked into the room, all dazzled up. "Your aunt said to call you""Hmm" He said with a nod as he buttoned his shirt. Sapphire sighed and placed her hands on her hips. "Are you okay? "My well-being is non of your concern"Sapphire bit her lips and moved closer to where he stood besides the bed. He had been quiet around her for a while. No sarcastic or mean remarks. That smug and cocky look on his face was no longer there too. Had she been too harsh to him the last time? But he had started it though. "Lance….are you acting this way because of last time?"Or are you upset, Ronald's been thrown a party? He's your brother but you don't like him much, do you?He didn't say a word but started lacing his shoes.She sighed. It was probably because of last time.

Sapphire tried to move away but he tightened his hand around her shoulder and neck. "Hey..let me go" "Ah, where are you off to sweetheart? We haven't even had a conversation yet. Relax" He said touching her hair softly. It made her feel sick. "What do you want? Sapphire asked. "Elisa told me what you did to her""And so?"I wouldn't do that if I were you. You might not know what will happen next"Sapphire scoffed and with all the energy in her body, flung his hand away. "What will you do? Try to kill me? Sorry but your lover already tried that and failed"Sapphire said with a sneer and she saw the man's eyes widen in surprise. "Elisa tried to get rid of you herself?"Why don't you ask your lover? She told you what I did to her huh? Why didn't she tell you what she did to me? You both better be careful unless you want your secret out in the open"He gasped at her in surprise and disbelief. So Elisa had tried to dispose of this bitch herself but yet her mouth was still as sharp as
