Amelia's POV
"What did you say?"
"I'm serious, Amelia," Ethan answered.
My tone was unusually different and there was shock written all over my face,
Pamela walked in on us, asking after what happened. "It's okay," I told her and she left the scene again, going back to the kitchen to continue with the cooking.
"Human trafficking," Ethan said, this time he brought his voice lower than normal just so Pamela does not hear anything and shoots more questions at us.
"Jeez!"
"I don't know yet," he said this time, sitting up on the couch. "It's just what my men and I think it is. We are not certain, not yet."
"I understand," I nodded.
Ethan walked into the house that night, "I've got news from you," he told me. Initially, I imagined it was an update on my flight to Spain and got excited

Amelia's POVIt was a good thing to hear the approval of Pamela's trip with me to Spain, from the mouth of her mother.Perhaps, Pamela has been telling the granny something about me that made her approve immediately, I should ask Pamela.No, I won't."She is cute," I told Ethan when we got back that evening. The old woman gave fresh flowers to me from her garden, "this is all I have to give to you, Amelia," she referred to me by my name, for the first time since we arrived.I was careful enough to hold the bouquet with care, I wanted them in the centre of the living room."How did it go?" Ethan asked when we returned. He surprised Pamela and I with dinner."What did you cook, uncle?" Pamela asked, watching him walk out of the kitchen, holding two plates."I ordered, actually," he confessed, placing the pla

Amelia's POV"Luke," I heard myself mutter, although I knew he didn't hear me say his name.He was dressed in a jean trouser and wore a hoodie. It almost felt like I perceived the smell of his perfumes, although I didn't. The memories were only racing in my head.He was far from where I sat. I looked at him carefully, recalling what Ethan had told me_the news Matthew and the rest of the men gave to him days ago in his office.He was with a girl, I noticed for the first time since I was staring. Who is she? I wondered, recalling the fact that the young man may be into human trafficking._girls trafficking.What on earth does he do it for? I thought, my eyes still on him. I brought out my phone to quickly take a picture when someone tapped me."Do you know him?" It was Pamela's voice. I turned to look at her,

Scarlett's POVThings went from bad to worse in the house I live with Luke. I no longer have a say in my house, I am scared to do anything again as the woman of the house.The last time Luke left the house, he came back two days later. I called his lines over and over again, afraid of something bad happening to him. If it hasn't happened already.I considered going to the police station to report a missing case to them. I was ready for all their questions_"when was the last time you saw him?" "What was he wearing?" I was ready for them all just to see Luke again. But my conscience wouldn't let me go as I planned, I know very well that the man has gone to one of the women he is seeing. He probably spent two nights in her house, with her on the bed.Whoever Isabella is? I wondered as I sat on the couch, waiting for whatever was going to happen. It is either I see one of the citizens drag Luke's corpse into the compound or he returns from wherever he has gone to. Did he even go to
Married for Revenge Chapter 73
Ethan's POVIt was good news to me when I heard that my wife, Amelia and the maid, Pamela, were successfully conveyed to Spain. Although, no conversations have been held since the day they left the house via phone calls.We only talked via WhatsApp texts and never over the phone. I, myself, have become too busy at the office with my work. My pocket is almost drained, the expenses made for the leave of my wife, the car and the visa I prepared for her trip in advance.Including the house in Spain, the apartment was worth it but too expensive, almost costlier than my mansion here in New York. I am not too worried, though. I am certain that they are safer in Spain than here in New York.On the day they left, I received a new while at the office.Amelia saw Luke.Again! I heard myself scream back at her over the phone, I was shocked

"I'll be back," I threw my words at Scarlett who did not even bother to look or nod at me. It was very obvious that she was still surprised at me over nights ago. What is so surprising in what I did? I collected something rightfully mine, by force. It is no big deal, I wondered, opening the door of my car and hopping in, almost immediately.It was the evening of that day, I returned from work and left the house again. I was on my way to the mall. I should let Scarlett do it but I don't want her touching my money anymore, neither do I want her to be seen walking that way.I noticed she stopped walking properly ever since that night. I expected such, she obviously was in no mood to be touched that night, and her neck.Her neck still has a mark on it, slightly reddish and at the same time, brown. The neighbours will definitely question her if they saw her in such a mess, and Scarlett on the other hand, can not tell a lie."Good day," I reached the mall, greeted the man at the gate while
Married for Revenge Chapter 75
Amelia's POVIt was in the early hours of the morning_not too early but was the right time to still have some rest before finally preparing for work when a knock came in at the gate. I still snored in my room, same as Pamela who was yet to leave hers.It came on and on, until Pamela rushed into my room to announce the presence of a stranger at the gate."Who could it be?" I asked, sitting up on the bed. "It is barely a month since we arrived here, right?" I asked, looking at the wall clock hanging on the wall. "I have no idea," the scared lady said, sitting next to me on the bed. "A thief, perhaps."I laughed, hugged the small woman to myself and touched her beating heart. "Are you sure this is the house?" I asked, she nodded, claiming she heard the noise and confirmed moments ago by checking out at the veranda upstairs."Let's go," I told her, jerking the duvet off from my body. "It's still too early to invade people's privacy," I complained. The knock came again and I hastened

Ethan's POVThe day to track the criminal arrived, I woke up from my sleep with an upset stomach. What did I eat the previous night? I asked myself, recalling I had mashed potatoes I prepared by myself.I only boiled and did the necessary things. What else did I do to the potatoes to cause an upset stomach for me?Was it that bad? I thought as I made for the bathroom to poop. It wasn't easy reaching the room, but I did. My phone beeped several times, I overheard from the bathroom where I was.I sat on the toilet seat for almost an hour, doing nothing in particular before getting up again. I walked back into the room and got naked the next moment, this is something that never happened with Amelia in the house.How will I get naked in front of a woman? I can go naked in front of any woman, but not Amelia. She should and will definitely run away or yell at m

Scarlett's POVFor some reasons, I am more than happy with Luke for the balm he gave to me last week. Did he foresee the call I will get fromMother and Father? Their calls came in days ago, asking me to visit the house.I know mother is at it again, it is either she wants me to see a part of the house that got renovated or she has something else to show to me.Maybe she got some nice slippers from the boutique, who knows?Father's reason for asking me to come is pure, I know. He wants to see my face and have a small moment with me, his daughter.We barely talked these days, after all and I, myself, miss them so much. Including Amelia who has gone on a break from po
