By the time they arrived at the resort, it was already three in the morning. Luca carried Silver who was already out and was sleeping like a baby who had no care for the world.He took her to one of the luxurious rooms upstairs while Ahmed and Rico waited for him. He gently lay her on the bed and was about to cover her with a blanket when he noticed how uncomfortable she looked in her dress. The thought of changing her out of the dress flashed through his mind but he quickly crossed it out.He made to cover her up like that when she started tugging at the dress slightly groaning in her sleep. Luca could notice how uncomfortable she was and he was left with no other choice but to change her.He thought of ways to carry out what seemed like a difficult mission at the moment when an idea finally struck him. He slightly sat her up and slowly unzipped her dress from behind and he laid her back. He then brought out a white tee from the wardrobe and wore it over the dress she had on. Seeing
The sunlight was streaming through the curtains, gently rousing Silver from her slumber. She opened her eyes and blinked, in confusion taking in the luxurious surroundings. The bed was enormous and covered in silky sheets. The walls were painted a soothing shade of blue, and the furniture was elegant and ornate. A window looked out onto a lush green garden, complete with a sparkling pool and a view of the ocean beyond. The air had a subtle scent of seaweed and sand. It was then she remembered where she was."I can't believe I'm in Mále!!" She let out a shriek of delight, jumping up and down on the bed like a child. Her hands flailed around as she bounced up and down, her messy hair flying everywhere. She bounced so hard that the bed shook, threatening to collapse under her exuberance. She didn't care though, she was too excited. She started punching the pillows, yelling at the top of her lungs. The thrill of being in Mále was too much for her to contain.The sound of her phone ri
The knock on the door startled Silver, causing her to drop her phone. The knock came again, a little faster this time. "Can I come in?" she heard a sweet voice ask from outside."Of course." She smoothed her hand through her disheveled hair and took a comfortable seat on the bed.The door opened, and a young lady who seemed in her thirties entered. She looked so beautiful that Silver was taken aback for a moment."Hello, young miss," the lady said, moving closer and waving her hand in Silver's face."Are you alright?" She asked calmlySilver gently shook her head. "Ahh, yes, yes, I am fine. Sorry for staring at you that way; I did not mean to be rude. "You are just so beautiful," she admitted honestly.The lady laughed heartily. "Thanks for the compliment. I like you already; you are cute." She tapped Silver's nose with her fingertip.Silver blushed softly and held her cheeks "Ummm, who are you?" She asked, her head slightly cocked to the side.The lady clapped her hands as she reali
"You're shocked, right? You see Alice, I told you people will find it hard to believe that you're a grandmother of three" Rico said with a shake of the head.He faced Silver who was still speechless at the news "It's alright to be shocked ma'am, even I didn't believe it at first until I saw her four children with my two eyes."Silver didn't know how to assimilate the information. She assumed Alice was in her thirties, but now she hears that she has four children and three grandchildren."I am sorry if I'm intruding into your personal life but do you mind telling me your age?" Silver asked softly.Alice gave a small smile "Of course I don't mind sweetheart. I'm forty-six, and celebrated it earlier this year.""Oh my God. I'm finding it very hard to believe Alice. You don't look your age at all. I thought you were in your thirties for real." Silver said in disbelief."That's so sweet of you to think like that but I finished that phase of life a while back, I don't think I look that youn
Luca kept a stern look as he bore holes into the faces of the men seated before him. He wondered how he ended up employing these incompetent fools.They swallowed and shivered at his brooding eyes. One of them used his handkerchief to wipe the sweat trickling down at the back of his neck. Even the air conditioner couldn't stop him from sweating."Ismail, Ismail" The frightened man gulped at the mention of his name."Yes, sir" He adjusted his glasses on his nose."It seems like you've warmed your seat enough. Haven't you?" Luca asked emitting the aura of a very dangerous man.The man in question was the director of Luxe Hotels in Malé. They have been facing strong competition from J Hotels, a new hotel which has just emerged. It's been going on for almost a month but he didn't report back to Luca early enough.Luca had found out about the decrease in their stock price and that was one of the reasons he decided to come to Malé for their honeymoon. He didn't alert Ismail of his coming be
Silver and Rico just arrived on the other side, with cars honking and everyone going about their daily lives.Rico had taken Silver around the resort. She was taken to the spa, which was located in a separate building that was surrounded by tropical gardens. The spa had a serene and peaceful atmosphere, with soft music playing in the background and the scent of lavender filling the air.She was shown the treatment rooms, the relaxation lounge, and the pool area, which looked like something out of a dream.Next, she was taken to the outdoor recreation area of the resort. Here, they saw a large pool, a tennis court, a basketball court, and a beach volleyball court. Rico explained that there were also kayaks, paddle boards, and snorkeling equipment available for guests to use.Silver was amazed by all the activities and amenities available at the resort. She couldn't imagine Luca participating in sporting activities and was forced to ask Rico."Does Luca engage in all these physical acti
Six cars arranged in a convoy pulled up at the entrance of a house. The driver in one of the cars turned to face the person sitting at the back."We're here boss" The man grunted a reply and alighted from the car. He was dressed in a black suit and wore dark shades.The moment other occupants in the other cars noticed he was down, they all alighted from their cars. They were also dressed in the same outfit as the man.Two guys approached the man, one of them holding a briefcase that contains some documents."Let's go, boss," The one without the briefcase said.The three men walked towards the house leaving the rest of the men waiting by their cars.They arrived at the door and one of the men pressed the doorbell. The door was opened by a maid that seemed to be in her late teens. She shivered at the sight of them, feeling intimidated by their presence."Come in," She said meekly with her head bowed, making way for them to get through.She shut the door and directed them to the patio.
Silver was in school when she received an important call from her mother requesting her presence at home. She wondered what could be wrong due to the urgency in her voice.She considered staying for the last class but thought against it since the longer she stayed, something bad or even worse could be happening at home. She bade her friend Carlotta goodbye, promising to call her when she sorts things out at home. She entered her car and drove away at full speed. Different thoughts filled her head as she wondered what the problem was. She could only wish that nothing bad had happened.She arrived home only to see about six cars lined up at their gate making it difficult for her to go in. She quickly looked for a space to park and alighted from the car. Her heart was pounding fast as the feeling of dread washed over her.'What exactly was going on?'She ran into the compound and the sight her eyes came to see halted her next move. Men dressed in black suits and dark sunglasses surround

"How long are we going to walk for?" Silver asked tiredly interrupting their conversation.They'd been walking for some minutes and had covered a good amount of distance, yet she couldn't see them arriving at their destination anytime soon."Why haven't the golf cart arrived yet?" Luca asked Ahmed."I did make arrangements for it, but you know how Rico is. He's never punctual to anything." Ahmed said with a sigh.He had placed a call to Rico to get the golf cart ready for them before leaving for the airport but he was nowhere to be seen."That incompetent fool, always getting on my nerves," Luca said angrily.Rico was a young boy that Enzo had taken a liking to when they were on their last business trip to the Maldives. When Enzo had misplaced the necklace his mother handed to him before she died, he found it in the pool while he was cleaning.Enzo was pleased and offered him some money which he politely turned down. He then had to beg Luca to give him a permanent job to show his appr
Silver still couldn't believe that they were in the Maldives. It was the wee hours when they arrived in Malé.When they came out of the airport terminal, they found a man waiting for them. He was wearing a black t-shirt that hugged his abs with tattoos covering his right arm and a blue faded denim jeans."Welcome to Malé boss," he said tersely with a small nod.Luca nodded slightly to his greeting. The man led them to where they boarded a speedboat. Silver was surprised at first because she thought they would be taking a cab."Would you be driving today boss?" The man asked. Silver was taken aback when she heard the question. She wondered if he frequently visited this place."Not today Ahmed," Luca said as he sat beside Silver.Ahmed nodded and manned the wheel. He started the engine and the boat moved forward with a little jerk.Silver shivered a little as she felt the cold breeze on her body. She closed her eyes as the wind caressed her face. She could feel the air as it slowly kisse
Luca had come to check if Silver had showered and if she was comfortable only to meet her yelling at an invincible being."Who are you talking to?" He asked slightly confused. He used his eyes to scan around the room to check if someone was hidden inside.Silver laughed awkwardly "Ahh, it's no one. Just a personal conversation with myself"Luca nodded slowly not still convinced by her reply "You didn't touch the food" he said when he noticed the plate sitting on the table covered."I was just about to eat before you came in. Have you had dinner yet?" 'That was natural, act as if you weren't concerned' she thought.Before Luca could say anything she continued, "Not that I was worried or anything. I just thought that since it's been a long day you might be tired and hungry. I'm only worried about humanity, if it were another person I would still be concerned about their well-being. That's why I asked. I don't want you taking this the wrong way""I didn't say otherwise. It's nice to kno
