Dave reaches home and strolls through large silver stainless steel gates, he slips the packet with Adrianna's gift into his Jean pocket. It was a small parcel but he didn't want to guess any longer what it could be. He walked into the kitchen and handed Martha the packets. She looked at his shiny face and knew he had a few to drink.''Adrianna is in the study, please go and freshen up,son'', Martha spoke gently in a whisper. John understood and walked up to their bedroom. On the way he passed the second study, Adrianna's cousins were discussing their contract deals they will present to Smiths corporations. ''Get lost, eavesdropping to get give your wife information on our presentations.You good for nothing, trying to steal our plans. Thinking she will even love you for being a spy. Have you no shame!!!!'' Michael screamed as he slamed the door in Johns face. Stunned and shocked, John could not help but smirk as he walked to his room. He would be the one to choose the best deal.Taking
John knew Adrianna would accept his gift half heartedly. He knew that somewhere in her heart there was a place for him but they had gotten off on the wrong foot. He wished he could erase the past and start all over. He also wished he never met Andrew Walters. But he did, and things turned out badly. But if he didn't he wouldn't have met her. He would not have fallen so deeply in love from the moment he laid eyes on her. " I married an exceptional woman, a woman who has captured my heart, yet she despises me for a crime I did not commit". His heart started to pound in his chest as he remembered their first meeting. Her delicate fingers in his. How they swayed in such rhythm together as of their bodies had become one. He was undeniably in love with her. He hoped that the gift would prove to her that his feelings are genuine.As he sat lazily in the garden his eyes wondered to the bench they had sat on. He was no private investigator but somehow he felt that there should be
*Ring, Ring**Hey boss, did I sent you the video and a few others.Do you need someone to be smacked for messing with you? " Alex spoke with a bit of fury. How could someone play such a dirty trick on their boss. He wanted to take action." Stop with the Boss, Boss calling before I start to act like a tyrant " John spoke through gritted teeth," I didn't ask you to go through the footage, I asked you to send it to me, and no, no one needs to be smacked"."Well, if I did not go through the footage, how on earth would I be able to send you the most valuable footage that you need to look at?" Alex asked. It was almost as if you could hear the smag look on his face. He was John's personal assistant, of course he would do his best at his job." You do have a point, I admit that ", Johm replied after a moment of silence." Why can't I order a few men to rough up those hillbillies that did this?, I mean like here you are stuck in the disfunctional family m
Adrianna sat at her table in the room reviewing her contract pitch.She smiles at her work. This was it. She was going to seal the deal next week. She was going to put in her best dress and walk into Smith Corporations and own this thing. Her confidence boosted to 100 percent.*Ping,ping,ping,ping*One message. Two messages. Three messages. Four messages." Four messages, who could be dying at this moment", she thought, rolling her eyes. It was a bad habit but it was so like her. Teenage attitude.She picked up her phone off the table. Scrutinizing the the screen, the messages were sent by an unknown number. The digits were of a foreign place. Probably outside of her country. She swiped the screen," probably spam messages". Four videos. She was curious so she opened the first one. It videos from her birthday, John and herself in the garden. Anger rose in her cheeks. She slammed the phone on the table. " someone has some nerve sending me this, could
John felt his heart sink,''did she really just overlook everything in that video and blame him? Did she hate him that much? Was he so low and despicable in his eye?''His heart hurt tremendously, as if there was a million glass peices slicing into his arteries.His eyes stung with unshed tears, as he stormed out of their room and into the shed.He sat in the dark for a while as his tears dripped down his white cheeks. ''How can he feel so much pain?''.He pulled out his hankerchief , wiped his tears and blew his nose.'' I am a millionare, a businessman. I am equal to her family, if not above them. She will love me, I know she will once she knows my worth!!!!''After a while , after being in deep thought'' Will she love me? or will she love my money?''Questions filled his head. He massaged his temples when his phone vibrated in his pocket.He pulled it out and looked at the screen with curiosity, this was his personal phone. No outside
John placed the beautifully boxed necklace on the bed next to a sleeping Adrianna. He picked a single blood red rose from the garden and placed it carefully on the box. He then sat down at her table, picking up a pink sheet of paper he delicately wrote." To the love of my life, Adrianna Smith.I know we have gotten off on the wrong foot. There is alwayd miscommunication and mistrust between us but one thing I want you to know, is that I John Smith loves you dearly with all my heart and soul. Please accept my gift as a token of my love for you.John.Ps. I love you forever and always"It was Thursday, market day. John left as usual to the early morning market to get the most freshest greens in the state.

John left as usual to the early morning market to get the most freshest greens in the state. This was his weekly chore.He never complained, this was his time out,away from his annoying in-laws.Adrianna woke up, rubbing her eyes, stretching her body and yawning like a hippopotamus.She looked at the gift on her bed.
Adrianna sat on her bed,blazing with fury. She wanted to rip someone to shreds. She clenched her fists trying not to scream in frustration.She got up and started pacing the room,'' What do I do? What do I do? ''. The tears rolled down her eyes as she paced,''Who could be so nasty?''John entered the kitchen, which was awfully silent. He knew something was up but he dared not question. He picked up an apple, washed it and walked to his bedroom. In the dining hall he could see a congregation. He stood out of view listening to them bicker amongst themselves.''Who had the guts to do it?'' Sierra asked in a whisper.''Not me'' they all chimed.John snuck a peak, he could see the smirk on Andrews face.''All right you dim wits, I did it'',Andrew spoke boldly,'' I took her contract proposal and shredded it''.''You clever cat'',Lady Francesca cooed,squeezing him in a tight embrace and planted a bright red kiss on his cheek.John was dis
Adrianna lay on her bed. Her heart in turmoil.She did not know what she felt anymore. On one hand she had evidence that may or may not implicate Johns involvement in everything,on the other was her family who she believed that could never harm her.But there is evidence pointing to them. She ripped off the necklace from her neck and threw it across the floor. It landed under the table,unshattered. Adrianna felt like a crazed woman. One minute wanting to believe John was innocent and the other ,raging with anger that he could be a scheming,lying son of a gun.John stood in the garden, his face still burning from the small slits. He looked at the shreds of paper on the floor. ''How could she not believe him? Was she brain washed by her family? Was she still stupid and naive? Is she sp gullible? Can she not see whats happening? Ryt in front of her eyes? It does not take rocket science to figure this out!!! What is it going to take,Adrianna, to win your trust?'',John
