Piper had always worked hard her whole life. She never wanted to depend on anyone and had fought through trials all by herself. She had built a name for herself and opened a bakery with her name on it. The only reason she actually goes to work is so she won’t be too lazy doing nothing at home, and she loved serving her customers and seeing the expression in their eyes when they get their orders.Ever since Piper and Alex boarded their love train, they never wanted to spend their days apart. They always find a way to meet up whether at a restaurant or at a park or maybe in a hotel. Piper never thought she would fall in love this deeply. All her past relationships never lasted as she was never serious with any of them or paid them much attention.She had once told Vivian, ‘Men are like children when they love you. You’re expected to give them all your love and attention else they wouldn’t be satisfied’. Piper wasn’t the type to run after men, nor was she the type that like when men ran
Following the release of Charles from ROWES brand. The reporters had been hinted by an unknown source about the news, and every news station across the city started reporting about it.It had become part of the headline story and everyone was interested in the story, both the public and corporations across the city as Charles was a very talented individual who was great with technology and since he had worked with one of the best they wanted him to work in their companies and would pull out every shots to make it happen.“Charles Davies, one of the most recognised talent in the city, has been released by ROWES brand. No one knew exactly what had led to the release, and quite frankly, I don’t think anyone is bothered about that.” A male reporter said to his co-host on the news channel Charles was watching. Charles chuckled at this and took a sip of the orange juice he had in hand.He lived at an old apartment that belonged to his parents before they travelled out of the country. He had
Rowan was in his mansion having a day off from work. He had a long week already and was planning to just rest today and not think about everything that had been happening, but that was just wishful thinking.He had been disturbed several times by the ‘hyenas’ who went by the collective noun called ‘reporters’ they wanted more information on what led to him releasing Charles from the company. He had ignored all of them like he always does, but that doesn’t mean they don’t still find a way to disturb him.He has no choice but to deal with them. After all, he was the one that ordered Fred to release an anonymous tip to the reporters, so it’ll garner the attention of companies, most especially PJ Brand. His plan was falling into place, and it was only a matter of time before PJ Brand fell into the trap he had placed for them.He paced around the living room downstairs with his phone near his ears as he talked with his grandmother. It had been a while since he talked with her, and he misse
Marcel had been scouting the hospital for any sign of Fred or his men had he had not found any. He was pissed at himself for leaving Mark, the guard who had managed to survive alive. He had thought he would come to death before anyone found him, but he had been wrong, and now, with him alive, it is a threat to his identity and could implicate him or, worse, kill him. He had to do something about it, and that was finishing what he started. Marcel was an assassin who specialised in death that looked like an accident or death that could not be traced as he was very careful and made sure to leave no witness alive. He had retired from the profession long ago after he was almost caught during one of his job, he wanted a simpler job and met one of his pals then who had introduced him to a bodyguard agency. He accepted and was later recruited by Fred to work for ROWES.He was in shock when he received a call from an unknown number who said they his services. He wondered how they had gotte
Alex had planned to meet up with Rowan in their private spot, which was reserved for meetings as they didn’t want anyone to know about their relationship as best friends. It was to their advantage, of course, as they were able to get information from their rivals and report it to themselves, putting themselves a step further than their rivals.A lot of people don't know they are friends except for a few. The only time they meet is during events where they act professionally, leading everyone to believe they were nothing more than acquaintances. Other times, they meet at their private spot, a place out in the open for all to see and hidden enough for no one to suspect anything. Valerie’s Bar, a bar which was co- owned by Rowan’s parent and Alex parents when they were still alive. It became their private spot some years ago after they discovered it had been abandoned every since the accident and when Alex parents left the country. They renovated it in secret and built it to what it wa
Mr Peter had not been at peace nor settled ever since his encounter with Maria in his office. He had not been able to concentrate while he was at the mansion. His thoughts had been muddled, and all he could think about was what Maria had said to him and how he was going to do what he had been asked to do.The mansion was heavily monitored, and security cameras were at every corner of the house to report any suspicious activity from any of them. He knows for a fact that their phones were being monitored as it took a while after the meeting before their phones were returned back to them.He didn’t step out of his allocated room for a while. He couldn’t afford to cry with the cameras watching him, although hidden in the rooms, he knew there would be cameras inside the rooms. He has always known to be very crafty and cautious when it comes to business, and he wouldn’t want anything to mess up his plan.The only freedom he had was whenever he was in the bathroom. He would cry and wail whil
Marcel was deposited into the trunk of the car while he was knocked out. They managed to sneak him outside before the nurses who were supposed to come in for their night shift. Fred called the security personnel in charge of the security cameras to delete footage of them taking Marcel out of the hospital but leave footage of him entering the hospital, thereby leaving no trace of them.They had taken him to a safe house that wasn’t traceable. It was hidden in plain sight, yet no one knew what it was about. It had a front disguised as a tattoo parlour, but at the back, Fred and Rowan ran business as usual.They stripped him while he was still knocked out, leaving him in only his underwear, and they wrapped chains around his leg and hanged him, facing upside down to the ceiling.His back was filled with several scars from the jobs he had taken. Fred took notice of this as he assessed his body. He had callouses on his hand from years of profession.Fred sat in front of him reading the do
Vivian sat by her mother's bedside, watching her breathe shallowly as she slept. She could hear the beeps of the machines monitoring her mother's vital signs, and the sterile scent of the hospital filled her nose. She had been in the hospital for a week now, and her health had deteriorated rapidly. It was difficult for her to watch her mother suffer from cancer. She wished she could take away her pain and make everything right.The doctors had informed Vivian that her mother's only chance of survival was to undergo surgery, which required a large sum of money that Vivian didn't have.She had checked her savings account, which she had been saving up for years, and realized that it wasn't enough. Vivian already worked multiple jobs, but they barely covered her bills and rent. She knew she needed to find a way to get more money quickly.As Vivian sat there, lost in thought, her friend Piper entered the room. Piper had been a close friend of Vivian's for years, and she could tell that so

Max had been hard at work gathering the list of the names of all executives and workers that were needed to work on the grand project. He had to make sure to screen all of them and ensure none of them were spies. He worked hand in hand with Fred in tracing their movement and checking their communication history for any suspicious activity. So far, so good none of them have behaved suspicious in any way, and all of them have been cleared.He had sent out letters to all the chosen people on the list and had ordered them to file out to the secret mansion in ones so as not to raise suspicion in groups. They had been ordered to come individually in public transport and not to carry anything with them except for the documents they might need.Public transport were not allowed through the estate where the mansion was located. Hence, they had to walk down to the mansion, which was a few miles away from the main gate. The estate was very secure and was very intentional about security. No one c
Vivian had noticed that Charles had stopped showing up at work. His desk was empty, and his office had been cleated out. She wondered what had happened with him.It also didn’t help that her co-workers were less quiet lately and had been whispering among themselves and discreetly looking at her like she had done something wrong.She tried confronting them, but they immediately shut down and pretended as though they were busy working and not gossiping about her. She then decided she would have to ask Mr Peter, her boss, about it.She finished working on some designs and printed them out. She packed them up into a file and was confused as to where to submit it as Charles was no longer around, and he was the head of the department.“Hey, let me get that for you.” A cool voice offered. The voice belonged to one of her co-workers, David. He was close friends with Charles and always helped her out once in a while, but it had increased more lately as he was always checking on her.“Thanks a
