Note: I know you guys miss the male lead, he will appear soon. I promise Ottiline smiled guiltily as she stepped in, "See who decided to come back" Clara rolled her eyes at her."I'm sorry, We still have time to prepare don't we?" She smiled at Clara who glared at her and walked into her room."Aunty gave me a dress you can wear to the reunion, So go on and wash up and change." Clara instructed as Ottiline nodded and made her way upstairs."Don't forget to make up too!" Clara raised her voice to remind her.Ottiline went to her room and immediately got into the bathroom to wash up, Returning to the room with her towel tied around her chest, she saw the box on the top of her bed."This must be the clothes that Aunty gave me, even though she shouldn't have bothered about it" She muttered and sat down in front of her dressing mirror to do her make up and skin care.After she was done, she changed into the Cream chiffon Shirt that had an open back and a unique neck line. Then into a Shor
Blade Steele walked into the living room and threw his suit jacket on the sofa before slumping down, He closed his eyes exhausted, "Thanks to all the trouble you caused, I can't even have a proper sleep!" Dillan entered right after him and glared at him.Blade opened his eyes slightly but didn't bother to care about him, *But isn't it bad? I can't believe he actually dared to do something like that to you just because Amal reported to him. She is really getting out of hand" Dillan kept on grumbling with so much grudge against Amal."Maybe you should shut up first!" Blade glared at him.Dillan shook his head and sat down next to him, Steele turned to look at him, "What are you doing? Aren't you supposed to go back to work?" He asked Dillan didn't dare at all"Acting as if it is not also your company. And these are the list of things, Sister in law did when you were not around" He said and waved the files to Blade who instantly sat up.Blade instantly sat up and snatched the file from h
Ottiline and Clara stepped into the room as everyone inside turned to look at them, "Hello Guys" Clara waved at them and found a seat."I didn't expect Ottiline to come, Afterall she never attended any of our union" Someone said while looking at Ottiline who smiled."It won't be bad to see you guys once in a while" She sat down and looked at the faces, some where familiar and a lot more were looking strange."So how are you doing?" Rose, a lady who sat just opposite them asked Ottiline, "Living my life just like everyone of you" She replied."Like, What are you doing? You are not in the group chat so we don't really know much about you. And as you already know, I'm married and my husband gave me one of the biggest shopping mall in the country" Rose flicked her hair showing off the rings and jeweleries around her neck."And I'm an Actress, Have you seen my movies? If you want an autograph I can give it to you. I have a handsome and Rich fiance" Bella who was sitting right next to Rose
Ottiline's eyes shot up in surprise, Which President?! Who are they talking about. Someone's name came to mind as she turned to the waitress, "Is it Blade?" She asked as the Waitress nodded."Yes, Is Mr. Blade." The Waitress nodded before leaving the room.Ottiline touched her head not expecting things to turn out this way, and couldn't help wondering how he got himself involved in this."President?! Don't tell me you got married to an old man so that you would belong?!" Rose raised her brows in displeasure as she tried to cover the embarrassment she is feeling at the moment."I can't believe this. Just because you couldn't seduce Maverick you decided to seduce an old man. That's very horrible." "She acted all holy and cool in school but is actually this bad. So shameless." The other classmates didn't hesitate in criticizing her.Lizzy couldn't take it anymore and banged the table, "She is shameless?! Is there anyone as shameless as you guys?! This is supposed to be a class reunion b
Seeing the conversation between the two, Rose turned to the husband, "Honey do you know her?" She asked."About that, Your husband always gets into trouble with his gangs, and we always end up arresting him too. As his wife, you should do your best to try and get him out of trouble" Ottiline adviced kindly, "In that way, there will get one more person that abides by the law and it makes our work easier, Right, Nelly?" She glanced at Nelly who nodded."Do you know who my husband is?! How dare you talk about him in that manner?" Rose glared at her coldly."Talk to him in that manner?! Sorry but I talk to criminals in one way because they don't deserve my respect at all'' Ottiline slowly cut her steak, "I hate them the most and I just want you to stab them greatly whenever I see anyone there tries to make my job miserable!" She stabbed the steak so much that the juice began to seep out.She took a bite of the steak and winked at Rose, "Honey you don't have to mind her. She is crazy" Bell
Ottiline and Blade stood at the entrance for a while but Clara was not coming out, "What could be taking her time. I will go and check. Don't follow me and wait here" She said and carried Damien with her but Blade who didn't care about her her words followed right behind him.Ottiline looked back at him but didn't know what to say, Just as she was getting closer to the rest room her phone rang as she paused and looked at the caller.It was Clara"Huh? I'm coming to her why is she calling me" She connected the call, "Hello Clara, I'm on my way to the restroom""Roku... Roku... Roku is dead!" Clara's trembling voice came from the other side."What?! Stay right there I'm coming!" She hung up and called Nelly that was waiting for her at the entrance."Hello""Nelly! Come over to the rest room immediately!" She ordered and hung up the call just after she finished speaking.She ran over, and looked down at the door that was filled with blood, and at Clara who sat on the floor in tears.She
After being notified, Ottiline turned around to see the Manager that was standing not far away from her."Hello" She bowed slightly at the Manager, who in turn bowed even deeper than her."Is a pleasure to talk to you Madame" The Manager smiled brightly at her while trying his best to contain his excitement."You are smiling too happily for someone that such tragedy happened in his work place" Ottiline narrowed her eyes at him."That's not it, I'm just too excited to see you. I apologize if my actions made you uncomfortable" He bowed again."You are excited to see him me?" She askwd pointing at herself but thinking of Blade and the strange actions of all the waitress from earlier, she could roughly guess the reason why all of them are these way."Yeah, About the murder. I asked My Colleagues to get the CCTV from you?" She ashed as the manager nodded."Yes. He came to me and i already notified the security about that. We will cooperate in any way possible.I just wanted to let you know
When the got into the car, Blade Steele turned around and looked at Ottiline, "Where will you be going from here?" He asked navigating his locations."To Clara. You took her to my Aunt's house right?" Ottiline responded and asked in return."I did. But when will you be moving in? I thought I would see you at home when I come back from the trip," Blade glanced at her and pouted."Says someone who suddenly went on a trip without letting me know. I wonder when this marriage of ours will hit the rock button." She leaned on the seat and closed her eyes leaving the driving for Blade."You are so heartless.""Let's talk about the moving in after I've taken care of Clara. I can't let her be alone. Is dangerous for her alone" Ottiline said suddenly."To me, I think she can take care of herself. She didn't see anything so she will be safe of course. Or should I send someone over to protect her?" "You don't need to worry about it. We are here." She looked out the window and looked at her aunt
THE STORY OF MY MOTHER"President Damien, The public have a question for you? Your father is the weathiest man in the world. But even after taking over his company, why are you still a detective?" The reporter asked the grown up Damien Steele.Damien crossed his legs and looked at the reporter with a slight smile, "I did it because of my mother." He replied shocking both the reporter and the viewers."Your mom? You hardly talk about her.""Yes. She is the most strongest woman and the most amazing woman that i have ever seen. No one has ever topped her." He replied as the reporter."Then you would want a woman like your mother?""No, I don't think anyone is going to be as amazing as her. So that is why i am not planning to get married.""There are so many amazing women out there."No. I don't want to give someone the burden of being better than my mother. So i don't plan on getting married at all. She is just a special woman, that no one can ever replace her. Do you want me to tell you
The rest of the dinner ended with tears, Aunt Rita couldn't hold back her tears as she blamed herself for everything that. Grandpa was sent to the hospital because of high blood pressure which he ended up dead. His burial was done immediately leaving grandma, but the next day after the burial Grandma fell sick and was sent to the hospital. Ottiline instantly regretted telling them about.She submitted her resignation letter the next day, and just decided to live the rest of her life with her family. Blade dropped everything aside and booked a two months long trip for everyone, Her teammates, her aunt and Clara, with Damien. The spent the few months in the strange country."Maybe you should have died sooner. In that way i would have come to this vacation a long time ago." Clara joked as Ottiline knocked her and took the glass of wine from her hand."You've been drinking a lot since you came here." Ottiline sat down next to her at the beach."I just feel like drinking. Is there anything
The past few days went by like a flash, and Ottiline had to spend the rest of the day in the care of her family, since no one wanted her to be out of their sight. She could still vividly remember how Clara and her Aunt found out about the cancer.FLASHBACKOn that day she sent a message to her Aunt and Clara, "How about having dinner together. Steele will be there too." She sent to them as they responded almost immediately."Great! I will be there.""You finally decided to introduce him properly." Her Aunt sent as she smiled and hugged Damien tighter while she sent a message to Blade. After their fight that, they haven't had a proper talk. But she knows that Blade comes home everyday and sleeps on the same bed, while cuddling her. She just didn't want to say anything not only because she enjoyed it but also she felt more secure to see him there.While she was about to click on sent, She changed her mind and decided to call instead, Just as she called, it didn't even ring up to twice b
Before Ottiline could agree or disagree, She already found herself in another space sitting down, "I can see that you don't know how to seek consent." She rolled her eyes at him and mumbled."I clearly got your permission. It was obvious that you wanted answers, so it will be bad of me if i don't give you the answers that you are looking for." He placed a cup of tea in her hand."You seem to know everything." Ottiline picked up the tea and had a sip, it tasted like the one she had in Blade's office."Yes, I know everything . So where do you start asking from?" He sat down opposite her."Are you the one that killed him?" She asked as Mr. Williams smiled."You can't say that i killed him. I only put a killing spell in his body, And he can activate it whenever he wanted, i didn't expect him to activate it so soon." He replied as Ottiline stared at him silently without any word."Then i guess that you must know everything that he is doing? How he killed those people and watched me investi
Ottiline listened to Blade, and felt that the story felt familiar but it was obvious that she has not heard about it before. She tried her best to hold back what she was feeling at that time, "So what happened on the wedding day?""Rebels. The rebels that i have been fighting against for a long time, suddenly attacked. To save me she sacrificed her life and was killed. I lost my reasoning, So i killed everyone in the palace, and all the rebels. Innocent people were involved in the death. All the wedding guests died at my hand. Williams came to stop me, but according to the heavens, i committed a great sin so i was punished with eternal life.No matter how i tried, I couldn't kill myself. I couldn't get killed by others, I continued living a meaningless life. Dillan's life got tied to my own because he helped me kill them. So he is only allowed to die when i die.And i can only die if i get human stars. Stars are the amount of good deed they've done in this life and in their past lives
"Don't act so surprised when you are the one that killed him yourself. For how long do you think you will continue lying to me!" She yelled at him leaving Blade all surprised by the sudden outburst."Hey, Sweetheart calm down. I don't care what other accusation you have for me. But one thing i won't do is to break a promise that i made to you. There is no way i am ever going to do that. I ensured that Franz was brought to you alive so you can do whatever you want with him." He said clearly, as Ottiline paused."Well, Someone felt like it was ok to kill Franz, and we could not even save his body for an autopsy." She mumbled while looking at Blade's facial expression, but his face was still the same as she couldn't see what he was thinking."He was supposed to die, So there is nothing wrong with dying earlier than expected." He said and went back to his work, "But his body will be ashes the moment he dies. That is the same for everyone like us." He said as Ottiline sat down."Do you mea
"What?!" Austin looked at the paper in his hands, confused and wondering how things turned out to be like this."Why do you want me to suddenly look into your husband? Are you suspecting him or something? Maybe you should let Nelly know. I am not the best person for this job." He said as Ottiline shook her head."Nelly, and everyone else must never find out about this no matter what. It might go the wrong way if they find out." She warned again as Austin nodded."Then i will look into it for you." He said and headed inside without asking her any further question about anything.As soon as he walked in Chief Ben, Cocksure and Nelly walked up to him, "What did you and Ottiline talk about? Are you guys hiding something from us?" Cocksure asked as Austin shrugged."We are not hiding anything from you. What is there is hide anyway?" He said and made to his sit."You are acting suspicious. You are the only one Ottiline meets if she wants to hide something from us." Chief Ben said as Austin
"What?!"The more Franz spoke, the more he looks at Ottiline as if trying to find out something from her facial expression, "Do you know why they wiped my memory and took away my powers. It was to prevent me from saying these things. But do you think i was going to give up, No. I stored this particular memory using dark magic, So it must come up and i must say it. Indicating that it is time for me to die." He said as Ottiline looked up at him suspiciously."Why should i believe someone who speaks without evidence. Accusing my husband is a very big crime to me." Ottiline said as he chuckled lightly."For someone who wants to kill you himself. You have a lot of emotional attachment to him. Do you think he doesn't know the fact that you are sick? He knows, but he didn't say anything about it. Just like them, he will give you the option to live your your life without pain until you die or you will die a painful death.""You seem so concerned of my life than you seem about yourself. If you
The next few weeks Ottiline spent it at home recovering, While spending a lot of quality time with Damien, Clara and Aunt Rita, As for Blade, for some reason he has not shown his face to her after the incident, and she doesn't know if she will ever see him again. But even with all of these, she has not been able to tell Clara and her Aunt about her illness. They both seemed happy that she was taking a good rest and recovering, If she broke such news to them, she couldn't imagine how devastated they would be. So she just couldn't muster up her courage to tell them.She looked at them once again and decided to break to them another news instead while they were playing with Damien, and she was eating, "I am going back to work tomorrow." She said as they both stopped what they are doing and looked up at her instead."Don't you think it is time for you to quit that job? I can give you my boutique to manage if you wat." Aunt Rita said as she shook her head."I will quit very soon. For now i
