I have never felt this angry in a very long time.
“Ma’am, are you alright?” One of the waiters walk up to me and asks.I don’t reply, I simply tip the coffee cup over, causing the content in it to spill.Every single person in the coffee shop is looking at me with baffled looks.I take in a deep breath and I march out of the place.I don’t think I would ever be served there again, but I don’t give a damn.Oh, I’m so sorry for Jen.She decided to make an enemy out of the devil. I will not only make her pay, I will make every person she cares about to suffer.Starting with her stupid uncle, Charles. I will kill him with my bare hands.No one cons me and gets away with it!***Jen’s POV***Today is Saturday and damn, I feel great!I am a billion dollars richer and I am in the UK with the man I love, what could be better?Life is good.“Where are you heading?”What is this man doing?I try to push him off me, but he resists. He is strong, and heavy.“Get off me.” I say as I struggle to push him off. He moan when my knee hits his groin and I continue my struggle.“James, get the hell off me!” I yell and my assassin instincts kick in.I knee him hard in the stomach and he doubles over. He removes himself immediately from over me and falls to the couch.“Crap.” He cries in pain as he holds his abdomen and I stand to my feet.“What the hell was that, James?!” I yell in anger. He balls up and groans in pain as he avoids looking at me.Despite him already being in pain, I give him a solid kick in his face and he falls to the ground with a thud.“I swear, you try that crap next time, I will murder you.” I threaten him as he holds where I just hit him, which is his jaw.I watch him in disgust as he tries to stand up from the floor, but he seems disoriented.
I wake up from the couch and I walk towards Chad. Robert and Carlos observes the bruise on James’s jaw as we leave.Chad leads me to his bedroom and we both sit on the bed.“Are you ready to tell me what really happened?” He asks and I chuckle nervously.“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I say as I try to loosen my messy bun, allowing my hair to fall to my shoulders.“Jen...don’t play with me. James did not fall, did he?” He inquires and I clear my throat.“See, I know when you lie, you have a tell. It’s a very small one, but it’s there. Every time you lie, you do it.” He explains and I am intrigued.Really?He is very observant, I will give him that, for even I didn’t realize that I had a tell.“What’s the tell?” I ask him as I purse my lips.“I’m not telling you. You would just find a better way to lie the next time.” He says and I chuckle, for he is right.“Now, spit it out. What hap
Did I just hear her right?“Excuse me?” I say in confusion as I stand up from the couch.“What is it, Naomi?” She asks with a warm smile. She now has her notebooks in her black designer handbag.“We are done, aren’t we?” She adds and I chuckle.“You just told me to kill someone.” I explain to her and she shrugs lightly.“And?” Her tone is relaxed.“Isn’t it illegal or something for you as a therapist to tell me to kill someone?” I seek answers.She laughs and then she places one hand on her hip and the other on the wooden table to support her weight.“Killing the person is what you want to do, isn’t that right?” She asks me and I chuckle dryly.“But I thought the whole point of therapy was so I can be better. Isn’t killing someone wrong?” I ask her and she smirks proudly, as if she just won an award.“So you know it’s wrong.” She says softly as she studies my facial expression carefully.
His hands are like a key, unlocking deeper sensations of pleasure and passion as they explore my naked and wet body.Suddenly, he stops and I find myself yearning for more.“Why’d you stop?” I ask him as the water falls on both of us from the shower.“We need to shower.” He says and I groan lightly, causing him to chuckle.Is he teasing me?He must, because the evidence of him being turned on is clearly shown.“You sure about that?” I lower my body and squat. When I look up to him, his breath shakes and he cusses.“Damn, Jen, don’t look up at me that way.” He says as I run my hand through my wet hair seductively.I lift my hands and I touch both of his toned thighs, lightly caressing it.“What way?” I ask as I touch him, inches away from his manhood. He closes his eyes and bites his lips.I can tell that he is reaching his peak with each passing second.I love how the tables
When we both enter the living room, I see Chad as Carlos sitting on the couch with plates of bacon and eggs in their hands, but I don’t see James.“Good morning.” Carlos greets, and Chad speaks right after.“Well, you two look nice. Where are you guys heading?” He inquires.“Good morning, Carlos.” I greet him with a polite smile and he nods.“I’m taking my beautiful lady here on a tour of London.” Robert says dramatically, causing Carlos and Chad to snicker.“Man, do you even know London?” Chad asks and I can’t help but laugh.“Makes it more exciting!” I mock Robert by saying, and everyone laughs.The fact that I don’t see James here makes me feel a bit sad.“It won’t be funny when you are having the time of your life in the streets of London.” Robert says to me with a smirk. “Yeah, yeah.” Chad says and Carlos places a piece of bacon in his mouth.“Where is James, by the way?” I ask no one in
What does James have to do with this?We continue our walk as Robert explains, this tour has now turned into an interrogation.“Before I met you, I was a real party person. I went to every party that had alcohol. And every time I went, I made sure to get drunk beyond comprehension.” I listen carefully to his words.“James was the one who drove me home after every event. And it was almost a ritual for have at least one girl over to have sex with.” He continues.“Hence the name, playboy of the century.” I say and he nods.“Exactly.” He replies.“A time came when some of the women I brought home to sleep with started to accuse me of impregnating them.” He says and it feels like my heart stops.“And did you?” I ask him rather calmly despite how disastrous I feel inside.“No!” He answers quickly.“I did not...and that’s my point here. Because these allegations were becoming too many and frequent, James sugge
When Robert lifts his head again, he blocks my view, but he also sees the look on my face.“Are you okay?” He asks and he looks in the direction that I’m trying to look. It’s harder now to see that Robert has sat upright.“I just saw Naomi.” I whisper to me and he gapes.“Are you sure?” He inquires as nervousness set in.“Yes, I’m sure.” I reply firmly.“Did she enter the shop?” Robert’s words annoy me, why is he not believing me?Anyway, even I don’t fully believe myself. This can’t be true, and I don’t want it to be.I don’t fear Naomi but I also don’t want to be around her right now when I have stolen a billion dollars from her.“Tilt your head a bit.” I command him and he does what I tell him to do.I search the customers in the shop visually, but I don’t see her.“I don’t see her anymore.” I say with confusion.I could swear I saw her.When I search again, I finally see t
If someone ever asked you what a heartbreak feels like, I pray you won’t know the answer.What makes this even crazier is the fact that I know the girl. She is the girl from the mansion back in America, she’s one of the maids.I think she said her name was Amanda. She was so shy and nice, so this confuses me even more.I hear the shower stop running and in a few seconds I turn around and I meet Robert walking out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist.I can’t help the tears that are blurring my vision right now. I don’t want to be crying in front of this man.“What’s wrong?” He asks worriedly, but but then his eyes land on his phone in my hand.“Crap.” He says lowly as he walks towards me tentatively.“It’s not what it looks like.” He says as he walks closer to me.I blink and a couple of tears fall down my face. I take in a shaky breath and I let it out.“I swear if you take one more step, you
My eyes widen and I immediately try to open the door of the moving car so I can jump out but all the doors are locked. Adrenaline floods every part of my body, it is like it is all happening so fast and I have no control.“What are you doing? Stop that! Do you want to get yourself killed?” Russell shouts as Usman increases the speed of the car so jumping out would seem more painful to me if I decide to do so.“Stay the hell away from me!” I reply to him aggressively when he tries to reach out to me and he raises his hands in surrender.“Okay, okay,” He says and then he settles back into his seat.“What the hell is going on?” I ask after a full minute of silence. I am much calmer right now, I was acting out of instinct when I realized that the person that was sitting next to the driver was Russell.How is that even possible? Was he not in an induced coma a few days ago? “Are you finished with trying to jump out of a speeding car just to avoid me?” Russell replies to me and I hear Usma
“Natalie is smart, I will give her that. She had all the video evidence cleared before we could get our hands on it,” Taylor explains and I at everything else in the room but her.“May I ask, who are you professionally?” I ask her, and she smiles lopsidedly.“I work with the police department in Russia, I am the police chief,” She informs me and I nod slowly. “As I was saying, Natalie made the investigation a lot more difficult for us. Her skills in covering evidence are impressive, but I believe that she got some inside help,” Taylor continues what she was explaining.“And?” I beckon her to explain more. If Natalie covered up our tracks so well, how does she know that Natalie did it? That she was the one that pulled the trigger and not me.“I know you want to know how I know that she was the one who pulled the trigger, and I am going to explain just that to you,” Taylor tells me.“Okay,” I drag the word as I wait for her to tell me what she knows.“I am Russell’s third wife and it h
What in the world is happening? Why am I even being arrested? Even if this is about Russell Marshall’s investigation, the person they should be arresting is Natalie, I was not the one that shot the man in the head.“This has to be a joke, right?” Chad laughs but when he sees that the military guys are not even smiling, he realizes that this is serious.I gave the piece of document that they handed to me, I read it quickly and it authorizes them to arrest me, but what I don’t see is the charge.“Your hands, please,” One of the military guards says a bit softly and I do as he says. I place my hands behind my head and I hear Chad scoff.“Do you want us to do something?” The guards that we have at the entrance ask me but I disagree by wagging my head. It would only make things worse, from experience, going peacefully with the authorities is always the best thing to do.“I am calling Robert, and then the lawyer. We would get this settled in no time,” Chad tries to comfort me as he makes a
Yes, we certainly need to talk. I put Jake down from my arms and he protests that he wants to tell me secretly. James, Natalie, and Cara watch my exchange with him with smiles on their faces.“Okay, what is it?” I ask him as he gets close to my ear.“I love you,” He whispers in my ear and I can not help but smile. Some people say having kids is a nightmare, and the truth is that it is at times, but most of the time, it is the greatest joy anyone could have.“Mommy heats you right back,” I reply to him in a whisper, and he giggles before he runs onto James.I stand upright and I bid James and Jake goodbye as I join Natalie and Cara in the living room.“We have a serious hiccup in our plans,” Cara begins when we have all sat down on the couch.“I know,” I reply to her, and Natalie chuckles but I can hear the worry in her voice.“Of course you do, it is all over the news,” She tells me and I stay quiet, not knowing exactly what to say.“So what are doing?” Cara asks no one in particular
“What do you mean that he’s alive?” I ask Robert as he stands to his feet, he looks worried but that is in no way compared to how I feel right now. Gosh, does Natalie know this? I need more information.“Which news channel did you learn that from?” I fire another question at Robert, not giving him the chance to answer the first. “Here, take a look, it is all over social media, and all the big news broadcasters are airing it,” Robert says as he hands his phone to me. The last time I held it was when I found out that he was partially cheating on me.I can not say that he was actually cheating because he did not sleep with Amanda, but he did receive nudes from her and whatnot. In my book, that is cheating, but I am just going to call it partially cheating in light of what Robert and Amanda explained to me.But that is not the issue at hand right now, we have a huge freaking problem. I need to get dressed and let Natalie and Cara know what has happened.I take the phone from Robert and I
Some might say that we are moving a bit too fast, but I have known Robert for close to a year now. Still, it seems like such a limited amount of time to decide to spend your entire life with someone, but why wait any longer?Robert and I have had our fair share of storms and problems, but we have weathered everyone one of them, plus we have a great support system. Chad, James, Carlos, and Jake are sure to be there for us if we happen to begin to feel the storms of life raging again, and of course, we will.The amount of crazy that I have been through individually is insane, my entire life has been far from normal and I am starting to stop wanting normal. Besides, normal is a bit overrated. Marrying someone you have known for only almost a year is not very expected, or should I say, normal? But that is the thing, I am not normal and do not even want to be anymore.“Well?” Robert asks me as I drag my body off the unmade bed. He suggested that we should get married next week after I ment
I can not believe that this just happened, Robert proposed to me! This is amazing and I feel so good, but I also feel like this is too good and I don’t deserve it. But I am just going to sum that up as insecurity trying to present itself in the form of me not being worth it enough to get proposed to.After I said yes, I think Jake was more excited than everyone else. Chad and the others came out soon after and I have a strong feeling that they somehow knew that Robert was going to propose. Robert placed a very expensive ring on my finger and he rose from his kneeling, I placed Jake in the chair where I was sitting and Robert and I embraced. We then shared a kiss and everyone joined Jake as he clapped. As soon as the applause died, the rain ceased gradually and the sun began to shine through the dark clouds. It seemed too perfect that I literally had to pinch myself two times to make sure that I was not dreaming. Good thing I was not, because I would have been so mad at myself.We e
It is usually sunny here, but today is different, and besides, it is a Saturday. I think the weather chose the best time to be like this, I don’t have to drive Jake to school and I get to spend the entire day with him.Yesterday was so eventful, I had to explain all that happened to me in Russia to Robert, James, Carlos, and Chad about three times before they finally could grasp it all. I also had the responsibility of explaining why I have suddenly decided to trust and forgive someone that caused me so much trauma, Cara was quiet when I took my time to make them all understand that I have finally decided to bury the hatchet concerning what she did.I am not going to pretend like I don’t feel a stab of emotional pain when I look at her, but I am going to try my best to move on. I am currently sitting on the porch alone while listening to the beating of the rain on the ground and roof, it is very soothing and I have never felt so relaxed in my life. Everybody else is in the house and
I open the door of the house and I walk in as Cara follows behind me slowly and tentatively. We are out of Russia and in Cyprus, though only Cara came along. Natalie took a later flight because she wanted to come with Susan, her grandmother.It took us a couple of hours to fly from Russia to Cyprus, especially because I did not have my passport on me. Cara had to pull some strings and call in some favors at airport security, and to my pleasant surprise, it all worked out smoothly.“Are you sure that they would want to see me?” I hear Cara’s voice as we walk further into the house. Everything looks pretty much the same, but I don’t see anyone here. “Where is everyone?” I say to myself in a low tone as I continue to explore the house.Suddenly I hear heavy footsteps and I look toward the source, someone is walking down the stairs. As soon as the person's eyes meet mine, they stop in their tracks.“Whoa, am I tripping, or am I seeing Jen Davis?” Chad asks me and he continues his descent
