Zach stood outside Chloe's room for a while after getting pushed out by Chloe. He sighed as he stood there with no one to ask the reason why he stood outside the door.He walked down the stairs meeting John who still looked devastated as he scrolled through his phone.“I will be going home,” He announced, but the stare he received from John said something else.“Why is she living here with us and not leaving with you?” Zach could only goggle at him with no word until John stood up.“Did you both fight?” He asked again, but still, Zach didn’t give a response. He was about to ask another question when Zach’s phone buzzed.Zach looked down at his phone and looked up at John.“I should probably leave,” he said agonizingly, but John's grip stopped him.“My son is dead now, I don’t know what their next step would be but please protect Chloe with everything you have,” Zach looked down at the place John had held him, and then he gently pulled his hands from his hold.“It seems as if you kno
“Leader!” Brooke growled as he stomped his feet on the ground flaring up.“Calm your ass man,” Zach announced as he now sat on the chair smirking at Brooke's Lost self.“Brooke Miller, you are going for your second term aren’t you supposed to be more concerned with that?” The leader finally spoke out, after a long silence.“Leader!” he yelled again, still not grasping the situation of him getting kicked out just because Zach wanted it.He wasn't the only one shocked by the news. The men on the table also don't like the current situation of Zach leading them.“Are we going to hang on this or go straight to the point?” unbothered Zach asked. Then some men walked inside with a file and handed it to Zach, he flipped the pages of the file seeing the design they wanted.“Why didn’t you just give this project to Knight?” Zach asked, no longer hiding his voice.“You are using your voice much more than expected,” Zach dropped the file and tapped the desk impatiently, he wasn't here to listen
They both disengaged from the kiss, and Chloe looked down not even knowing what to think or say.“You don’t hate me?” said the kid after a long silence.“Why should I?” Chloe's head whipped up at this. She deals with drugs, she takes drugs, and a video of her probably with a drug circulating.The thought of it made her quiver, Zach noticed that and pulled her hands closer to him, now caressing it with his.“Didn’t my kiss mean something to you?” he solicited, she gaped at him weirdly, she wasn't expecting this reaction from him.”Do you think that video is edited?” she asked, trying to understand what he meant by his words, she was expecting him to stop whatever relationship they shared.Since he hates to smudge his reputation, seeing him act like she didn’t do anything that would take her to the station made her confused.“You are not going to ask why I use drugs?” Zach stared at her curiously. Yeah, he is so curious about why she was in that position.But he wouldn’t judge quickly
The whole room looks so scattered and Nora could be seen just standing there but without a word and just watching her fiance get mad at her betrayal.“How could you do that to me?” his voice echoed all over the room. He expects her to shut up and just watch him talk like she would do when he says mean words to her.But this time Nora isn't going to let things pass by like he wanted. She flung the bottle in front of her against the wall now making the duo stunned by her action.“And so fucking what?” her voice, icy and furious, “I have always done whatever you want, so now I can't do what I want?” Aiden veered back, still in shock at what had just happened.“I am now in a high position, and you don't want to test my patience,” she announced again, leaving them speechless.She walks into her room not minding what they might have thought of doing.Aiden glanced at his mum about to ask for her help when a slapped sound across the room.His mum just slapped him, she had never done this be
Zach kept pacing around over and over, this has cost him a lot of funds if it's displayed and hijacked. There wouldn't be any better thing left of it.He would lose his investors and that would be a huge loss to his company.Companies are going to steal ideas and might even launch theirs before he does his.He looked toward Sarah, “How did you know about this?” his hand chafing his forehead back, and he blew out a rasp of air.She could tell that he was so mad right now, that he moved closer to Sarah.“I heard it,” “Who?” he growled again trying to control himself, “From your men,” she answered even though she was scared of what Zach could do to her, she needed to answer him, understanding his frustration.Daryl walked inside also looking disorganized, “Boss you heard the news already?” he asked, seeing how disoriented his boss was.Zach nodded his head, Daryl looked everywhere thinking this was the place to say the right things, “An unknown source blocked it, and also showed us wher
“How would you guys mess up this big?” Zach's voice echoed as his men all stood, with their heads bowed in guilt and filled with regret.If they hadn't been blocked every single file would have been leaked to their rival and that will cause a huge amount of damage.Not only are they regretting their action but also loaded with stupefaction that their boss, ever known as a mute, can talk about.“Anything from the unknown source?” he solicited again and they shook their heads.Zach felt like strangling them all, How could they be that stupid, and let their information leak?“You,” he pointed to the leaders, and gestured for him to move forward, Quivering, his hands so cold and the fright that gripped him can't be measured.“We are…”Zach kicked him in his leg, propelling him to fall on his knees.Zach leaned close to him, his palm now pressing his chin, “I give you just 24 hours to find out where that unknown source is from, else!” Zach let him go and pulled his wrist.“You will regret
“Doctor you are fooling around right?” Aiden solicited in shock, his mum left his mansion not quite long after.“We are sorry, but will try our best when she recovers from the coma,” The doctor informed, terrified of the man standing before them.He needs to rethink the phrase he needs to say before letting it out.“You should do your job well, we have a share in this…”“When is she going to gain consciousness?” Zach cut Aiden off, “We can’t say for now,”Zach sighed, stroking his hair with worry, he wasn’t expecting his mum to suddenly be passing through this.“Can we see her now?” Aiden’s shuddering self asked them. The doctor nodded to him telling him he would gain access after being taken to the ICU.“Thanks for the hard work, you can leave,” Zach appreciated and the doctor bowed and left.Aiden paced around hitting his fist on his palm in worry, “I will destroy you, Nora, if this is from you.” He kept muttering while Zach stood there waiting for Natalia to be transferred to the I
With this thought of Zach being her husband in mind, Chloe let the raw desires she was feeling at the moment take charge of her. She was determined to listen to her body rather than her mind this time, to check what might happen afterward, Zach was her husband and she had been dying to explore his body.“My love,” Zach’s raspy voice resonated, reminding her of how drunk he was.“Fuck that.”She arched her neck backward to give Zach access to her cleavage. He suckled and nibbled the raw flesh between her boobs and her chest.“The clothes are a restraint,” Zach mumbled, tugging on her clothing.She smiled at how hot that sounded.“Why don't you get rid of the restraint,” she suggested, staring at him.Not waiting to be told twice Zach ripped the thin clothing off her body. It was a nightwear made of soft lining material.She lay bare for him to explore. Zach got busy, latching his mouth on her tits and suckling as if his life depended on it. Lips latched to the right nipple, his finger
Chloe pouted her lips and threw her phone on the bed in annoyance.Today hasn't been going well for her like she had thought it would, she has been trying to call Zach but his call keeps going to voicemail.Still, in her state of anger, she heard her baby’s cackle. She had just finished dressing her up and wanted her to have a little sleep.She moved closer to her crib and sat beside it, swinging it gently so she would sleep.“This is not fair,” she mumbled, as her baby stared into her eyes.“Mama,” Little Freya let out a beautiful smile that immediately captured the mother’s heart.“My little princess, you are the one who loves me.” she asserted and picked up Freya from her crib.Freya crackled happily as her mum brought her closer so she could nurse her.“I can't wait for you to have a full conversation with me,” Chloe complained while her baby played with her hair.“I can't reach your dad, he promised never to be on a business trip during my birthday but now..” Chloe sighed and dro
FEW MONTHS LATERThe Three elegant and beautiful friends could be seen seated, while one is facing the dressing mirror in her wedding gown.The other two were on the bed taunting one another.“Just give up, you want to eat this,” Carrie taunted, shoving the doughnut she was eating in front of her face.Chloe's eyes followed every movement swallowing hard. “Hey! Stop it!” Sarah cautioned Carrie who felt it was interesting to play with her pregnant friend since she finds it amusing.“I am reporting you to my husband,” Chloe almost cried but Carrie teased her more, still finding her crying self amusing.“Carrie!” Sarah yelled in frustration while the ladies who were in charge of her makeup almost broke into wild laughter watching Sarah act like a mother to both girls.“What!”“That's not fair you know, I am going to be fat, if keep eating this! I need to fit into my chief bridesmaid's dress,” Chloe whined.“That's what you get being chief bridesmaid despite being pregnant,” Carrie let o
“Zach… how are you still? I can explain.” Julian tried explaining but Zach scoffed.“I trusted you so much and even gave you enough time to change. He was so disappointed in his grandfather. “I am doing all these for you." Julian tried defending himself.“Enough gramps! Enough please! I told you to do what I wanted, not what you wish!" The anger in his eyes is so familiar.“Zach, don't you like being powerful? Don't you want to be respected.."“Granddad! Enough give up already,"Julian shook his head continuously as he moved backward. “Never! I am not giving up… I built this with my blood! Do what I want or..” Miles kicked him right on his wrist making him groan in pain as he fell to the ground.Aiden and Zach shut their eyes, not able to watch their grandfather in pain."You can manipulate his heart because you took care of him, but not me, I long disregarded you as my father.” “Zach… listen to me if you don't want to regret your decision, your wife…” Zach scoffed bitterly as hi
MCHM 149“Boss, what is your next plan? Are you trying to tell the world?” Julian walked into his car not answering his assistant.“He caught on faster and that bastard, I don't trust him being my son,” he announced.His assistant stared at him, baffled at how he was still going with his plan.“Take me to that bitch! And send all the remaining girls to Italy till the matter dies down.” He bowed and was about to get into the car when he stopped him.“I have somewhere important to go,” not having any choice, his assistant bowed and just left for the other car and drove off.Just then someone slipped into his car, “Get them all killed, aside from Mike, they know too much.” “Consider it done,” the man answered and he smirked this has been a legacy he protected at the cost of his life.They can't just go down the drain that way, he has killed a lot of people and destroyed their lives to get to where he is currently.One thing he can't bear to hold is spoiling the title, Lucas, it's a name
“I need to see him please, don't stop me.” Chloe fell to the ground, her whole body trembling, as she recalled his last words.“No, I am sorry, you can't leave me.” Chloe cried, no matter how Sarah tried helping her up and reminding her of her condition she didn't listen.“Mr…. According to the rules you can't go in, he is a very close family of yours,” Mike was held down by some of the doctors.“Dr. Mike his life is in danger, we can't risk any more mistakes,” With this the doctor shut the door of the room preventing anyone else from going inside.Chloe sat on the floor looking dejected, fear gripped her as her thoughts ran through different events.“He asks me to trust him, he never, for once gets mad at her. Why couldn't I just let it go and trust him?” she cried out.Now she is on the verge of losing him because of the crazy painful words she had thrown at him.She couldn’t bear to lose him, he had been her support, and she depended mostly on him.He is always there when she need
FLASHBACKThe morning Zach received the news of his mansion getting burnt, he promised to take care of it all so his wife didn't get hurt.He drove straight to a mansion that hardly anyone could think about because of its location.But it is Zach, nothing is getting off his eyes.As long as he was ready to check about it he would know, he drove inside the premises breaching the security access.He has every single access to his grandfather's assets, so it wasn't hard for him to know this.The Alarm blaring sound filled the premises the moment his car drove inside.He alighted from the car before any of the guards could come close he gave a thorough warning.“Well… welcome young master,” his dad's secretary greeted but stood in front of the entrance stopping him from going inside.“Why are you here young master?” Zach smirked and pulled out his pistol.“You want me to tell you?” Zach retorted, now playing with the PIStol.“You.. young..” he shut his lips when Zach placed the barrel on
Zach stormed into the mansion looking like a mess. He was on his way back from Heritage when he heard his wife got hurt.He was infuriated, fear clouding him, he felt like destroying everyone present there."How the heck did she lose consciousness?" Zach yelled.The nurse ran up and down trying to find a way to stabilize the lady, she had lost too much blood before they found her.Zach paced around the hospital, if it was another doctor he was sure he could hurt him but he was his best friend.He knows how to handle him more than anyone, "Fuck!" Zach yelled again, still hoping she was doing fine.An hour later Mike walked outside, "How is she?" Mike nodded his head"She is strong, she didn't get hurt that much, just a few pounds of blood lost." "Don't tell her dad about this," Zach warned, Mike nodded his head, at his friend's request."You are the leader," Mike stated and Zach glanced at him in shock, "What are you talking about?""Uncle Carter is dead," Zach scoffed and sat on the
Zach smiled at his sleepy wife, admiring how beautiful and innocent she looked.One could hardly tell that the lady lying beside him is the same lady who would get pissed off at the sight of her.Now he can proudly say he can't live without her, she stretched her arms forward trying to check if he was still asleep and he smiled again.He caught her hand and watched her move closer to him trying to feel his warmth.Her smell, her smile, her gaze he is intoxicated with them all. Feeling her palm on his bare chest and her head on his arm makes him feel so fulfilled.He was still admiring his wife when he heard a heavy knock on the door.He didn't want to wake his sleepy wife up, so he placed her head on the cushion gently so as not to wake her up and also made her hold another cushion to make her comfortable while sleeping.“I will be back soon Love,” he let out and she smiled. He picked up his phone and walked out only to be met with his best friend.“What makes you bang my door that w
Chloe stayed with her dad the whole time not for once leaving him.He has been going through severe pain, despite how hard Mike tried to stabilize him.“Chloe dear, thanks for forgiving me, I am..”“Dad, it's fine. you shouldn't apologize, the one behind my brother's death would apologize.” “Chloe…”“Yeah, I know everything now, I will make sure to make him refer to it.” John held onto his daughter's arms and shook his head.“He is dangerous, you can't afford to get him furious.” This made Chloe smirked.“Really dad? He has caused us so much pain, I can't even go out because everyone thinks I am dead and I need to follow that procedure.” Chloe squinted her gaze seeing how terrified her dad was.“Dad, don't tell me you know the leader,” his eyes widened and he shook his head constantly.“No, I don't… I have never seen him before.” John cut her off, Chloe nodded her head and now caressed her dad's face.“You looked pale dad, you sure the pain has subsided?” John felt sad hearing this f
