Brigitta returned to her room but she was very restless. How can she be calm when she was yet to see her kids? She kept tossing to and fro the room. She lied down at some point but stood up from the bed again. She wasn't herself.She kept checking her watch and it soon dawned on her than an hour had passed. Then another thirty minutes. All of a sudden, she started hearing voices of more than one person coming from the living room.She opened the door of her room at once and ran out, from the corridor that swept pass her room, she could see her kids but what's even more terrible, she saw Ragnar Marshall, covered with bloods. There were ten men in suits behind him, and another man dressed like a doctor, and there was Ivan. Some of the men with Ragnar Marshall had familiar faces, it seems they were the same men she saw inside the skyscraper the day she decided to challenge Ragnar Marshall for throwing two women off the skyscraper.She was shocked at the sight before her, not knowing whet
Brigitta entered Ragnar Marshall's office, she had been asked to wait behind at Ragnar's office after work. However, Ragnar Marshall wasn't in the office. She then made use of this moment to savor the beauty of the office. The many awesome protraits on the wall.For an inexplicable reason, she wants to know Ragnar Marshall more. If she didn't know him, how can she even help him. She believed that there is no one in the world who didn't need help, many people just hide their scars. A lot of people also know how best to pretend as if all is alright.Perhaps, she can bring something to the table after knowing a lot about him. Why he is who he is. When she was tired of sitting, she stood and walked up to a portrait. She saw an elderly man and a woman in the protraits, they looked beautiful together and when she looked closely, she noticed that Ragnar had a similar resemblance with this man and woman. Perhaps, they are his parents.She continued to look around, then she suddenly saw a fami
As soon as she was outside, she burst out into tears. She had to stay on the spot and let the tears rush out. She didn't even know why it hurts that much, she had also always believed that their marriage was nominal and that nothing positive can come out of it, but then, knowing that he had another woman pregnant just hurts her in an inexplicable manner."Were you fired?" A familiar voice suddenly sounded beside her and then she turned and saw Cassie. She immediately cleaned the tears on her face."None of your business," she then began to walk away.Cassie walked up to her and then blocked her from moving further, "I'm your boss here, Brigitta. How can you walk out of me?""You are pregnant for Ragnar Marshall, dear Cassie. Shouldn't that make you happy? Why do you still look frustrated?" Brigitta asked.Cassie was taken aback by those words. She wondered how Brigitta knew about such sensitive matter. She thought it was only Ottar and Ragnar Marshall that was aware of the pregnancy i
Brigitta quickly hung the call up and turned to him, her mouth shivered so hard as though her mouth was suddenly subjected to a cold greater than a thousand degree Celsius. She dugged her nails hard inside her palm even as she tried very hard to calm her anxious and frightened self.How did Ragnar Marshall entered without her knowing? During the dreadful silence, her phone rang. Seeing that it was Alex, she immediately hung the call and switched the phone off totally.Ragnar Marshall went over to her, closing all the gaps between them and saying, "do you really think your ex husband can save you?"Her heart pounding hard against her chest could still be literally heard by anyone close to her. "Where is the necklace?"She immediately handed over the necklace to him. He received it and looked at her, "I will take it that you stole this necklace. Perhaps, you thought it worth a fortune.""Of course not." She replied quickly as that wasn't her intention, "I will never steal anything from
"Mr. Ivan?" She called. Wondering if Ivan was here to save her.Ivan scoffed, "Brigitta, how is the pain? I want you to experience even greater pain than this.""What! What's my offense, what did I do to you?" She asked surprisingly. She can't remember having any issues with him."Your mother was the maid that poisoned my master's mom. How can my master even forgive you so easily, huh?" He asked"What! How is that your concern? Was that why you kept me here since yesterday?" Brigitta asked."Fucking yes!" He screamed in anger, "not just that! You seem to be finding the favor of my boss which is a threat to me.""A threat? What does that even me, Ivan?""I love Ragnar. I fucking love him." Ivan stated.Brigitta scoffed at Ivan, Ivan was around fifty and so she wondered if the love this averagely old man has for Ragnar was an Eros love or just a genuine sincere brotherly love."Are you...""Shut your fucking mouth, bitch." He said and went to take a sharp knife from the table, "I was th
A few months passed by quickly and Cassie could be seen in the labor room labouring tiredlessly to deliver a baby. Took her twenty six hours of intense and tireless labor before she was able to deliver a baby.With sweats all over her body, she sighed merrily and immediately said to the nurse carrying her baby, "bring my baby, let me hold him in my hands before you wash him up."However, she noticed the countenance on the nurse's face was strange so she immediately asked, "what happened to my baby, is he fine?""He is not crying," the nurse said even as other nurses rallied around the baby, slapping his back carefully and hoping for the baby to breath out. Air was blown repeatedly to his mouth so he could breath but it soon dawn on everyone that the baby is dead.When the news was passed on to Cassie, she screamed in pain, "it can't be! It can't be!" After twenty six hours of labor, how can her baby die? She cried hard for another one hour and knew she had to do something.It would no
"What do you want?" He asked. "We clearly have been avoiding eachother for months so why should you be here?" "It's you who's avoiding me, sir. I don't dare to reveal myself before you unless you send for me. I don't want to bother you by demanding for your attention but I don't want to leave you anymore, sir." "Any tangible reason behind that?" He was still yet to grab why the woman that always want to leave suddenly wish to stay. If he knows the reason why she isn't ready to leave, perhaps, he can handle it for her. "I just want to be your friend." "Friend?" That sounded very awkward in his ear. He didn't have any friend, male nor female and he never intend to have any. "You want to be friend with a monster? Don't be ridiculous. Sign it or I'll force you to." "I don't care what other people think of you, I choose to see the good side of you." "Everything around me is worse. Now sign it or I force you." He said and she nodded sadly. She walked towards the paper and took the pen
It turned out to be the man who saved her many months ago from Ragnar Marshall's death sentence. Then, Ragnar Marshall had ordered for her and one other lady to be thrown into the furnace. The first lady had been thrown inside, just when she was about to be thrown inside, this man came to her rescue. He had said he saved her for a reason. He should be in his early forties nonetheless, he was dressed very smartly and was seated nobly.The man gestured for her to sit and she went slowly to sit before him. Has this man been working here all along and she had no idea."Good morning, sir." She greeted."You are welcome, Brigitta. Do you accept the promotion or do you not want it?" He asked as he scribbled some words to a paper.How could she not want it. But she needs to know what awaits her as a secretary. "Can I see the appointment letter so I can know what I'm getting into.""Why not." The man handed over the letter to her and she began to read her duties as a secretary. One of it was t
Ragnar Marshall was able to get Cassie's contact, and he had invited her over to his location at England. When Cassie landed with Dian who was now a big boy, Ragnar Marshall who was already waiting for them at the airport walked towards them and welcomed them, then he lead them inside his car. When they eventually got to his house and settled, he made them ate and afterwards, Cassie and Dian came to sit with him in the living room. "Dad, you abandon us for years, it's so unfair," Dian said. "I'm so sorry, I'll make it up if you and your mom let me," Ragnar said. "Ragnar, although we have suffered so much, I still love you. I'm glad you called us back," Cassie said. "Dad, when you were away, it was prince Guthred of Maridonna that made mom and I live very comfortable," Dian said. "Dian!" Cassie cautioned him. Dian and Cassie had agreed to keep that a secret, she didn't expect for him to spill such out. "Did Guthred knows that you are coming here?" Ragnar Marshall asked the mothe
Birdie walked up to the window and kept hitting the window, she could tell that it was very strong. Not even a stone could break it. Whereas, Serafina continued crying fretfully. All of a sudden, the door opened and Birdie saw two huge men walk in. Fear gripped the heart of the two girls that they shrinked frightfully, the two guys ignored Serafina and carried Birdie out of the room. Birdie struggled but her struggle was futile. At the end, she was forced to sit on a seat in a yard. Before her was Guthred who sat majestically. "What do you want with me?" Birdie asked courageously. She was scared, yes, but due to her experiences and that of her brothers in the past, she had grown a thick skin. "Your dad's house location in England." Guthred went straight to the point. "You are a child, I don't want to hurt you at all but if you refuse to cooperate, then I'll be left with no choice but to let you experience an unspeakable amount of pain. One that would traumatize you your entire life
An aeroplane landed at Jora City's international airport at 2PM. Students of age 17 and 18 could be seen stepping down from the airport. Amidst all these students was Birdie and her bestfriend, Serafina. Serafina had already clocked eighteen while Birdie would clock eighteen the following day. As they walked alongside other students to the bus that would take them to the hotel, both friends discussed about various things, some of which were Birdie's experiences here at Jora. Afterall, she once lived in Jora City with her parents. She may be young then but she still remembered their culture and their way of life. That night, all the students lodged at the hotel. Around 10PM in the evening, a man walked towards the receptionist and dropped a backpack of cash on the table, "you won't make these money even if you work hard your entire life." The receptionist unzipped the backpack and saw loads of money, his eyes widened, "what service may I render you, sir?" He took the backpack of mo
At Maridonna's kingdom, the ten princes of Maridonna's kingdom stood before the great emperor of the kingdom. They trembled in fear and had their head lowered in shame. Lined up in the left roles were the council members and lined up in the right row were the overlords of cities. The atmosphere were tensed and everyone present steadied their breath as they were scared to even breath. "How shameful!" The emperor stated. "Not only could you not get Ragnar Marshall, we even lost our spy, Brigitta. That woman tricked us. Yet, I had the opportunity to kill her but you... You, Guthred told me to pardon and use her." He added in fury, "you couldn't even produce even one of her babies. I have never been dissapointed as I am right now." The emperor was boiling in anger, "Ragnar Marshall isn't the governor of any state, he's not a president of anywhere, neither is he a king nor an emperor, he holds no political position. He's just a random citizen with soldiers yet he defeated us in battle."
She immediately placed a call across to Ragnar Marshall to which he answered, "I've been informed of the attack in my house. There is a secret exit at the second hallway, just press code 211AXs when you get to the door, it will open." "Alright, "Brigitta said and stepped out through the hallway. Ragnar Marshall knew that these battles would be an endless one, unless Maridonna is destroyed, there will be no peace for himself, Brigitta and the kids. Sometimes, it's wisdom to know when to run and when to fight. So he told Beocca to go and pick Brigitta and her kids from the secret exit of the house and bring them to his airport. He wouldn't let Brigitta nor her kids gets captured again. It's time for her to live a happy ever after and he will make that happen. Ragnar Marshall soon arrived at the airport, he stood on the stairs and waited patiently for Beocca to drive Brigitta and the kids over here. When fifteen minutes passed without any trace of Beocca, his concern heightened and t
Cassie had goodbumps as she spoke. She spoke exactly like Brigitta and it's very weird. She couldn't stop staring at her. "I will tell you if you tell me whom you work for?" Ragnar Marshall asked. He still didn't trust her enough to reveal his identity to her. "This wasn't the deal," Brigitta said. "Be truthful to me and I'll be truthful to you. Just come clean and I promise you transparency," he said. Because she was in danger of Maridonna's attack, she decided to confess, "well, I was imprisoned for years in Maridonna's kingdom. I was about to be killed a month ago when Prince Guthred spoke up on my behalf before the emperor. They decided to use me to kill Ragnar Marshall and that was why I was sent here for the mission. They told me Ragnar Marshall and I once worked together as a terrorist and that it was Ragnar Marshall that killed my babies. But I later found out that they lied." "Alex Roberto, my ex husband revealed the truth to me before he died." Brigitta said. The hairs
"I can not. You will have to kill me firstly before you can get to the kids." Brigitta said. "Is this how you will pay for how I saved your life?" Prince Guthred asked."I can't let you take my kids away from me. As for the Mission, I am almost done. I have Ragnar Marshall with me." "In your custody?" Guthred was surprised. "Yes." "Take me there now." Guthred commanded. She walked out and closed her door then she took him to the warehouse. However, when they got there, they saw that the place had turned into chaos, everywhere was scattered and Alex Roberto was on the floor, bleeding. "Oh my days! They Ragnar Marshall's men found out this place already." Brigitta ran inside where she kept the person she thinks was Ragnar Marshall but the person was no longer there. She ran to where Beocca was kept but he wasn't there also, then she walked out. "My prince, they escaped." She reported. Guthred grunted in frustration, "why don't you just kill Ragnar after you have held him hostage
Whereas, at Brigitta's house, she scoffed after Ragnar Marshall left. As though she knew that "Lee" could be related to the Ragnar Marshall, hence, she quickly told Alex to take her hostages away before Ragnar Marshall would arrive. Brigitta then drove over to the warehouse that the hostages are. On getting there, Alex showed her where her hostages were. In a room was Beocca, in another was 'Ragnar Marshall' and in another were six kids. But something caught her attention in the kids, it's the fact that five of the six kids looked alike. But more than that, those kids seemed to have a close resemblance with her. She shut the door so she could have some time with the kids, the kid's mouth were neither gagged nor tied. They were only locked up in a room. "Hello," she greeted the six kids but the little one were quiet and scared. She remembered that she was told Ragnar Marshall killed her kids. What if it's not true? What if these are her kids? It's crazy to think that way but why w
Ragnar Marshall's heart skipped in fear. If it was that weird boy, Dian that was kidnapped, he wouldn't really mind but Brigitta's kids? Although those kids aren't his, he still treats them as though they were his. For the love he had for Brigitta, how could he let any harm come against those kids."Might be that woman, Lin,* Ragnar Marshall said. Took a few seconds before he suddenly stood. "Prepare fifty men, I know where she lives." "Alright, sir." Ottar immediately walked out. About thirty five minutes later, they arrived at Lin's place, "bring every single soul you find in there to this place!" He commanded. Ottar and twenty five of the men walked in speedily and began to ransack the house but unfortunately, they returned with a negative report, "not a single soul is in there. Infact, it looked like whoever is living there had already moved." Ragnar Marshall didn't expect so much from a woman, he must give it to Lin that she was really very smart. He didn't see Lin as a threa
