Phillip’s POV

“Wow, it is very late,” I said, noticing she seemed sleepy. “We better get some sleep.”

“I agree.”

We both stood up and walked hand in hand upstairs. We paused outside her door.

“Good night,” I said softly. My intention was just to peck her cheek, but her lips were so inviting that I could not help it. We kissed as passionately as we had done earlier. I was tempted to push her into the room and onto the bed. But I pulled back. It was too soon.

“Goodnight,” I said again.

“See you at dawn,” she whispered and walked into her room. I made for my room, and shut the door, then I relaxed on it, and smiled as I recalled the feel of her soft lips on mine.

I opted for a quick bath, then I got into bed, but I was not able to sleep. I was only able to roll my body from one side to another, and with my heart beat faster like that of a teenage boy in love. It has been a ages since I had this kind of feeling, and I had vowed not to let myself go through it again. Yet here I am, resi

    Becky’s POV Everyone stared at her open-mouthed.“Well? Aren’t you all going to say something?” She asked impatiently.“Em…congratulations, I guess,” Frank shrugged.“That is impossible! You can’t be pregnant,” Phillip said.“Yes, I am,” she opened her purse and took out a sheet of paper.“Take a look. I got a test this afternoon.” She said, pushing the paper towards him.“Is Phillip responsible for the pregnancy?” Anna asked.“Of course he is, Anna. You are going to be a great-grandmother.”“No, it isn’t. The baby can not be mine,” Phillip said angrily.“What does that mean?” Celine demanded.“What I said. The baby isn’t mine.”“It is.”“I want a DNA test done to prove it!”“Are you accusing me of being unfaithful to you?” She asked angrily.“Calm down both of you,” Ben said. “You guys should take it easy. Philip, I am surprised at you. You should be happy you and Celine are going to have a child.”“And I said I want a proof before I can accept the child as mine.”“How can-“ Celine

He held my hands, and my heart skipped. “I really love you, and I will not stop at anything to make us a reality.” “But-““No buts. If the child is mine, I will accept it, but that does not mean that I have to accept Celine and I won’t,” he said firmly.I sighed. “There is something I have to tell you.”He looked at me.“I am leaving in a month's time.”“Come on Rebecca! You can’t decide to go just because of-““It is not because of that. I made this decision a while ago,” I said, and explained to him what my mom had offered.He was silent for some minutes when I was done talking.“You were going to leave without telling me?” He said finally.“No. I was just waiting for the right time.”“But you don’t have to leave. You can enroll in a college in this state.”“My mom insists that it has to be in New York. And right now, I agree with her.”“Please think it over. You may change your mind.”“I don’t think so.”“Please

    Becky’s POV “She said she had convinced you to go to New York because it was far from here just like he wanted,” my sister continued. “And that as long as the man paid the tuition, then you will never suspect.”I stared at Wendy, too shocked to say anything.“Then she said the guy had to give her more than they had agreed to, because if not for her, his plan would never have worked. That if he thought it was so easy why couldn’t he make you take the money when he first offered it.” I felt myself losing color.“What did the guy look like?” I asked hoarsely.“Tall, compact, gray hair and eyes. Do you know him?”I did not say anything. The words refused to spill out of my mouth.“Are you okay?” Wendy asked, worried.“Yeah, I am fine. What else did they say?”“That was everything I heard. Do you know who the guy is?”“I am not really sure.”“What are you going to do? Are you still going to New York?”“I don’t know yet. But if Mom lied to me, then I am not.”“Are you sure you are okay?”

I am not available for a lecture.“Yes now,” she said, coming in. “Do you think Celine is saying the truth?”“I am not sure of what to believe, Gran.”“So she could be right? That you are the father?”I suddenly felt tired and sat down behind my desk.“Maybe.” I shrugged. “I can not tell, Gran, I am confused.”“What are you planning to do?” She asked.“Get a DNA test done,” I said firmly.“And if it is yours?”“I will have to accept it, but I am not marrying Celine. I care less what she or her father say. Right now my problem is how to maintain my relationship with Rebecca. I do not want this whole thing to affect our relationship.”“I will talk to her, and you should too. Let her understand where she stands in your life,” she advised.I nodded. “Thanks Gran, I really appreciate it.”“Do not be worried dear, you have my support. Everything will be alright.”I took Gran's advice and made efforts to speak w

    Becky’s POV I was still feeling uncomfortable about Celine's father. I knew Ben Davis would not just give up, and I was wondering his next line of action.“He will not easily back off,” I told Phillip.“Ben has no choice than to by the time I tell him I know what he is doing and warn him to keep off.”I frowned a little and shrugged, too upset to argue.Phillip stood up.“Shall we?” he said, pulling me up.“Where are we heading to?” I asked, alarmed.“I am taking you for a drive.”“A what? It is nearly midnight.”“Yep, a midnight drive.”“No, it is too late, and I am not dressed,” I said, looking at my pajamas. “Who cares!” He said, throwing me over his shoulder.“Hey!” I protested.He ignored me and carried me downstairs and to his car.“This is crazy!” I said as he started the engine.“I know, right?” He agreed.“Where are we heading to?” I asked.“I don’t know, just a drive to relax and clear our heads.”“But-““Shhh… just enjoy.”He put on a CD and romantic music filled the car.

Whatever he had planned, I was ready for him.Anna still hadn’t come out, so I called Jenny.“Hey Reb, I was just about to call you. How is it going? Has Phillip proposed yet?” She teased.I sighed. “Everything has been going crazy.”“How? Tell me about them.”I told her everything that had happened to me, including Ben Davis’ call.“Wait a sec! Davis paid your mom?” She asked, shocked.“Honestly, if it had not come from Wendy, I wouldn’t have believed it. And when I confronted my mom, she confirmed it.”“How could she do that?”“I don’t know,” I sighed.“But why does Ben want you out of town?”“So his daughter, Celine, can get back with Phillip, especially now she is pregnant for him.”“I can not believe that. What are you going to do?”“Nothing. I am not going anywhere. I don’t care what Davis says or does.”“Careful Reb, I have heard of the guy, he sounds

    On the drive home I was still wondering why a rich lady like Sandra Martins would be interested in someone like me. I did not believe it was just because of my friendship with Jenny.“Tell me more about your Aunt,” I told Jenny.“You know most things about her. Her life is all over social media.”“I know. Tell me things that aren’t on social media, like, does she have any family?”She laughed. “That is on social media too.”I gave up. We dropped her at her house.“I will miss you dummy,” I grinned, hugging her.“Me too. Don’t worry, I will be back soon.” She got out of the car and waved to me as I was driven back to the estate.Frank was in the living room when I walked in.“Hey Becky, where have you been?” He asked.“Hanging out with my friend Jenny. Where are Phillip and Anna?” I asked.“Reading upstairs. You look like you have been enjoying yourself,” he smiled at me.“Yeah, Jenny and I went to see her aunt, Sandra Martin.”“Sounds fun. You rarely want to hang out with me anymore,”

    Phillip’s POV On my way to work on Monday morning, I thought of ways I could surprise Rebecca. This evening I wanted us to do something romantic. Maybe a candlelight dinner on the rooftop? Maybe a swim at midnight with a bottle of wine?I was still considering it while in the elevator to my office.Frank was waiting for me with bad news.“Hey, you look pleased,” he said.“I am. I am happy and in love.”“Good for you. I am sorry to bring this up, but another investor has pulled out of the business,” he said.“Oh, no!” I groaned, taking my seat. “Why? What is their problem? What did we do?”He shrugged. “I guess they are not happy doing business with us anymore.”“But why?” “Maybe they got better offers.”“Give me their names, I will talk to them.”“No need. It will make them think you are desperate. I have already talked to them, and they still insist they don’t want to do business with us anymore.”“This is bad,” I sighed.“But we have enough investors to keep business going smoothl

The officer insisted on taking me to the hospital even though I told them I was okay. All I needed was a bath. Phillip rode with me in the ambulance while Celine and Frank were handcuffed and taken away.The doctors agreed I was okay except for the bruise on my ankle, I was told they would keep me for twenty-four hours then I could go home.“I will call Sandra, and the rest to let them know you are okay,” Phillip said as he kissed me.“Sure.”Finally, I was able to take a shower. I felt a lot better, but when I laid down, I couldn’t help being furious about the whole thing. How could Frank do such a thing?

    Phillip’s POV“Frank! What the hell! Is this a joke?” Rebecca asked.I just stared at him, too lost to find my voice.“Does it look like a joke, Rebecca?” Frank sneered.“Frank, what are you doing?” I finally was able to mutter.“We are working together. Are you surprised?” Celine asked.“What? So Dom is working for you?” Rebecca asked in astonishment.“Sure. He has been my eye in the house from the day he was hired,” Frank smirked. “His job was to keep an eye on everyone there.”“Why?” I asked, stunned.“Are you asking, you idiot?” he laughed. “You really think I like you? You are dumber than I thought.”“We have been working together from the beginning. We knew each other before he introduced me to you, so it wasn’t so hard to come along,” Celine grinned.“So all the sabotage I have been having at the company, and the investors pulling out because of a false rumor, you were behind it?” I flared at Frank.“Yes. And I also told Jessica to dump you. I told her you were having an affair

    Phillip’s POVIt was quite late when I got to the beach. Throughout the drive I kept wondering if I was doing the right thing. The kidnapper had phoned me on my way down and asked me to meet him there. He had told me to turn off my handset, and leave it in the car, warning me not to try anything stupid. The way he spoke, I guessed he was somehow observing me. And on my way down I had a feeling that there was someone coming behind me. I pulled up in front of the rundown abandoned building on the edge of the beach that had once been a warehouse. I did everything I was told and stepped out of the car. The air was cold and damp. I could hear the waves and my heart raced as I walked towards the building. I touched an old wooden door and it opened. It was dark inside, but the moonlight streamed in. Everywhere was quiet.“Hello!” I called out. The empty building echoed back at me.“Anyone here? Rebecca?”“Put your hands behind you!” A voice said quietly behind me.My heart skipped, but I o

    Becky’s POV“It has been awhile hasn’t it?” Celine sneered.“So you are behind this? You are working with Dom! I guessed it.”“I am not the only one, stupid.” She laughed.“Who else? Your dad, right?”“You don’t need to know. Did you really think you and Phillip would get away with what you did to my family?”“We didn’t do anything!” I said angrily. “He did. My dad lost his company and reputation because of him! Now it is time for payback.”“You won’t get away with this, Celine!” “Save it! We already have. We are going to get money and get rid of you both.”I swallowed nervously.“What do you mean?” I demanded.“Simple, stupid. We are going to get ransom for you, then make sure you are never seen again. Are you scared?” She asked mockingly.“It won’t work. Phillip has probably informed the security agencies. If you kill me, you will regret it,” I said bravely.“He hasn’t, and he won’t. Besides who said anything about killing you? Although I would have preferred that, my partner has

    Phillip’s POVSandra and Jenny looked at me anxiously as I hung up.“Well?” They asked.“The caller is asking for two hundred million dollars.” Sandra gasped. “When does he want it?” She muttered.“In five days.”“I will pay for it.”“Do you have that much money aunt Sandy? Your company may collapse,” Jenny told her.“I don’t mind,” she said. “Okay, I will pay half. Can you make up for the rest, Phillip?”“Wait, you want us to pay the ransom?” I asked, surprised.“Of course,” they chorused.“No. We are not paying any ransom. I will call the police.”“No! The kidnapper warned you not to, remember?” Jenny said.Sandra joined her. “She is right. We will keep it quiet, pay the ransom and Rebecca will be returned to us.” “Come on you two, you can’t really believe that? What if he gets the money and we never hear from him or Rebecca again?”“It is a risk we have to take,” Jenny said.“I prefer to risk going to the police,” I insisted.“No. Pay the money. It is the only way to get her bac

    Becky’s POVI groaned and twisted as light infiltrated into my eyes. My eyes still felt heavy and that arrogant fragrance was still hovering over my nose.I thought I was at home and was drifting off to sleep again when I heard a cellphone ringing somewhere. The ringtone sounded like mine. I forced myself to open my eyes, and realized with a shock that I wasn’t on my bed at home.Quickly sitting up, my head spun a bit, and realization hit me that I was on an airbed. I looked around and noticed how small and dusty the room was. The only thing visible being the airbed and a portable toilet. Light streamed in from a glass window that had metal bars.Where am I? I thought.I scanned through my brain to recollect my past. Then I remembered. I was at the cemetery, about to leave when I saw Dom standing near my car. I remembered the hankie he tossed before me before I went blank.My heart skipped a beat. Did Dom kidnap me? Why? For money or something more? I tried to stand up, but I felt a p

    Phillip’s POV“Enough Wendy! Go to your room!” Her mother snapped.Wendy frowned. “If you know where she is, mom, you should say it. If anything happens to her, you will be held accountable.” She marched to her room.“You see what you have caused! Now my own daughter thinks I am guilty!” She told me angrily.“Are you?” I asked, looking her in the eye.“Don’t be stupid, of course not. I didn’t know she was missing until Wendy started accusing me this afternoon. She was here yesterday and left the way she came.”“So where were you hoping to get the half a million from?”“Like I said, from Rebecca. She promised to give it to me.”I frowned. This was definitely a lie.“She couldn’t have,” I said. “I have looked at the financial records, with the way you left the company, if she took that much money out she risked going bankrupt. So how was she going to do it?”She looked surprised then uncomfortable.“Well maybe from her savings.”“Definitely no. She hasn’t saved up to that.”“I said mayb

    Phillip’s POVAn officer stood there. The look on his face caused my heart to sink.“Good evening, Sir, I am asking for Rebecca Richards,” he said.“She is not here. Is anything wrong?”“We found her car parked at the cemetery. We would like her to come and remove it.”“The cemetery. Oh my God!” Sandra said, coming to join us. “She is not with us; we guess she must be in trouble.”“Have you made a report?” The cop asked.“No. I wanted to wait for twenty-four hours. But I will go now and do it,” I responded.I went straight ahead with the cop to remove the vehicle. The car keys, her phone, and her purse were on the driver’s seat.It became glaring that something was definitely wrong. ***“Jerry has something to do with this!” Jenny insisted.We were all in my living room. After I left the station, I went home and let Sandra know what had happened, then I called Frank and Jenny to inform them too.

I decided to order lunch for myself and have a lonely meal,” he complained.“Sorry, I got caught up in an emergency meeting,” I said, joining him.“On Saturday?”“Like I said, it's an emergency.”“Is everything okay now?”“Yeah. I have it under control.”“Why weren’t you picking your calls?” He asked.“You called me? I didn’t hear it. I turned off the volume. Is Rebecca not here?”“No. I called her too, but she did not pick up. She must be at work.”“No. She is taking time off work to prepare for our wedding.”“Really?”“Yes. I thought she would be here, that's why I didn’t hurry so much.”“Nope. I haven’t seen any sign of her. I have been calling her all afternoon,” Frank told me.I dialed her number. It rang without an answer.“She is supposed to meet Jenny this afternoon to pick up her gown. I guess that is where she is.
