Chapter 45

last update Last Updated: 2024-09-17 00:08:46

I was at the office going through the stupid case Tanner gave me; you know, some days I just hate my job more than you can imagine.

How on earth am I stuck behind this desk learning about how cats mate, just to cover the news of two neighbors fighting because of their cats? When I should be covering better cases, I think Tanner is back to her usual self now.

When I mean back, I mean back to torment me, because tell me what the heck is this?

I was getting frustrated by the stupid case, and my throat was getting dry, I was about to get myself something to drink when someone pushed a cup of coffee to me.

I stopped, staring at Kevin as he stood there smiling.

"You look beautiful when you are working hard," he said, smiling. I was confused at first wondering what he was on about, then it hit me.

"He isn't hitting on me," I whispered to myself, staring like a moron while he was acting like he just handed me the world.

"I have lost my charm, I'm doomed," I murmured.

"Enjoy," he waved, smil

    To think I was taking shit from the security guy to find out more about the shipment only for Oliver to hand it over to me on a platter without ass-licking anyone. I felt the urge to shove my foot down the security guy's throat but decided not to. I have always known that our system was dysfunctional, but I never imagined that our system was rotten to this extent.For heaven's sake, why would he traffic these little girls in a container halfway across the world? I could feel my blood boiling and my muscles cringing while watching the video.But one thing still baffles me: where do they all go? I mean, the girls. He gets the shipment every month; where does he keep these girls?It takes a lot of work and connection to keep this kind of deal off the police and the media raiders. I was lost in my world losing track of time. I looked up from the video I was watching to see Oliver dozing off with his head leaning on the window.I sighed, "He has gotten thinner." I whispered to myself; he

    I opened my mouth to say something, but it closed right back. He started from Oliver to me, then back to Oliver. I have no idea what was going through his mind, but I would give everything to find out."Hi, Dean, you're back," I blurted out, running my fingers through my hair."Yes, I came back a few days ago," his gaze was still on my hair. But then it hit me; did he just say he came back a few days ago; he couldn't call me since he came back."Maybe he lost his phone," I thought to myself."Oh, what are you doing here?" I asked him, hoping that would make him forget all about me."I have an appointment with Oliver," my gaze shifted to Oliver."Yeah, yeah, I forgot the brunch," he said, checking his time."What brunch?" I asked confused."Uh, the club is holding a brunch later today," Oliver explained."Oh," I spat out, taken aback.For the love of God, he had the time to attend a brunch but didn't bother seeing me after how we left things."I should go," I quickly said, turning to l

    I haven't seen Oliver ever since the incident with Ellen; at first, I was pissed, hoping to see him and return the slap, but when I remembered he gave me a video of Carson trafficking young girls, I became scared for him.I worried that he must have told her those things because he was scared. But I couldn't bring myself to call him; the last thing I want is another visit, from Ellen. But anyway, I was kind of glad it wasn't Carson or Geoffrey; it wouldn't have gone after the slap, and maybe it would have been a bullet to my head.I was still lost in thought thinking about what best to do and how to go about it when I heard my phone ringing. I grabbed the phone from my desk, hoping to be done with the call before Tanner caught me.She is literally on my neck lately; I guess Geoffrey threatened the shit out of her when he came for Barker's file and she decided to take it out on me like she always did.One look at the caller ID, and I was pissed. I thought I made it clear that I didn't

    DEAN'S POVI haven't been myself ever since I left. I found it hard to go back ever since I left. I thought she had finally accepted me and made up her mind to forget about Oliver, but seeing how pale she was at the engagement party, I knew I stood no chance against Oliver. I was feeling guilty seeing how miserable she looked.I made up my mind after dropping her off at her apartment to leave the city for a while, but that was the dumbest idea ever. I should have stayed behind to fight for her love.I had known her for only a couple of months, but it just felt like I had known her like forever. I couldn't stand watching her pine for someone who would be married to someone else in a matter of weeks.I packed up my things and decided to leave. I came by her apartment to tell her about how I felt and my plans to leave.I stood at her door for hours contemplating my options, but I wasn't ready to learn the truth, so I decided to leave without telling her.I thought maybe it would give he

    I could swear I saw that guard standing behind me the day Ellen visited me; normally I shouldn't have recalled, but they scared the shit out of me."What is he doing here?" I asked myself, hurriedly walking into the building, hoping Ellen didn't send him here to kill me just because I called Oliver. I mean, that will be madness, but it isn't beneath her anyway."Hey," I heard a male voice yelling behind me, and I quickly increased my pace, almost running."Hey, stop," he kept yelling, but something was off about him; he wasn't yelling at the top of his voice; it was more like he didn't want to attract attention to himself.But I will be damned to stand around and find out what he wanted."Stop, I just want to talk," he said in a whispering tone.I stabbed the elevator button with my fingers, occasionally looking back to see if he had caught up with me.The elevator door pulled open, and I quickly ran inside, stabbing the button to close faster.The door was almost closed when he stuck

    I almost lost my cool when Dennis informed me that Ellen went over to charms apartment to warn her. I became pissed immediately, I have always hated the idea this charade if a wedding bug I know how containing mom can be, if she threatened me, there is a 70 percent chances that she would make do by her promises. "I have to see Charmer now" I whispered to myself, I grabbed the keys and made to leave the house, but Dennis stood in my way.I was shocked he was standing in my way, I started at him confused "What is this supposed to mean" I asked"I am sorry sir, but I can't let you leave" he said grudgingly. "What? " I asked more shocked. "I think, Miss Carson is tailing you sir, how do you explain she knows you went to see Charm at the port and she followed you home" he explained, I was speechless for a while, trying to process all he said, and it finally made sense."My world, she had to resort to that" I lamented, brushing my hair back, feeling frustrated and pissed.I was still ta

    "I have always hated noisy places, but what could I do when my so-called date chooses a bar over every goddamn nice restaurant in the city? These billionaires and their weird tastes," Charmaine thought.I can't begin to explain how I'm feeling right now; my bodycon gown and 3 inch heels are really becoming too uncomfortable for me. If he had given me the slightest clue as to where we are headed tonight, I wouldn't even dare wear these. Well, I'm going to endure it all."Look at the big picture," she muttered to herself while patting her chest gently.Nothing good ever comes easy, and if going on these blind dates is going to take me out of poverty, then I would gladly suffer and smile.Let me rewind a bit to where it all began. I know some of you are a bit confused.My name is Charmaine Raven. I graduated college a few years ago, and just a few months after graduation, I got a job with CBS News as a reporter. I don't really mean to gloat, but I'm the real deal.I have carefully plann
