People started to let lose and join the dance floor. They let down their guard after seeing how their president was dancing with Amanda. The mood was not as oppressive as they had imagined.
After the song finished playing, Richard gave Alex a look. He soon understood and cleared his throat before saying into the microphone...
"Let me have your attention again guys. The biggest surprise of the night is coming. Please I want everyone to leave the room in an orderly manner and stand outside. Do not make any noise. This is very important occasion to our president." People were dumbfounded but did not ask any questions. They did as they were told and left the room one after another.
"Why is he being so mysterious. Can't he just say what is about to happen instead of keeping us in suspense?" Many people grumbled as they walked outside.
When they reached entrance of the hotel, everywhere was coloured red. Red roses were spread everywhere on the ground. They
"Who would have thought that Amanda and our president were a pair?" Those who had experienced the whole thing were still shocked."Someone quickly pinch me. I think that I'm dreaming.""Ounch! Can't you be gentler?" She complained after someone gave her a hard pinch."It is not a dream, okay. Amanda is the president's girlfriend. You can see how much they love each other.""Hehe and there we were, bashing Amanda and yet it turns out the she our lady boss. I feel like my face is swollen from the slap.""But I think Amanda is cool. She has never used her relationship with the president to bully us. She has always been polite to everyone and never once showed disdain or arrogance." Someone from the crowd said.Those who had bullied Amanda and talked bad about her had their faces turn pale from the fear the she will get back at them.If they had known, they would have instead improved their relationship with her instead of ruining it. Now
Amanda's days in the company have been smooth sailing after everyone knew of her relationship with Richard. She could freely go to his office and most of the time they even drove the same car to the company.But only those in the company and their close friends knew of their relationship. Everything has been sealed off from the media."Today you have a magazine shoot, and it might happen a little late. We need to start preparing. The location is within the city, we will head their when the time is right." Linda said. Since she joined R&S with Amanda, she has made great progress in her career and could only thank Amanda for that."Okay. When is the Film Festival Awards ceremony happening?" Amanda asked. She has acted in several movies and TV dramas and she hoped to be nominated in even one."It is almost end of the year, I think it won't be too far." Linda said."We will wait and see if I can get nominated." Amanda said, but her heart was hopefu
Linda slowly regained her consciousness. She touched the place where she had been hit and it hurt like hell.Looking around, she found that their car was still packed but the other car was not there anymore. She did not have time to think about anything as she stood up with shaky legs.She fumbled to the car only to find that no one was there. The door was wide open but neither artist nor Vivian was in the car. She started to panic as she called Amanda's name.Getting no response, she walked to the other side of the car only to find a figure lying there unconscious. She rushed over and found it was Vivian.What happened, where was Amanda?"Vivian quickly wake up!" Linda said, her voice shaking with nervousness and uneasiness."Wake up!" Linda was starting to panic.Vivian woke up after a while. Her eyes were groggy and she tried to remember what happened."You are awake, what happened, where is Amanda?" Linda asked hurriedly.&n
Amanda was still in the car. The speed has reduced since they were out of town and the terrain was not good.She was still trying to distract her kidnappers."Who is your boss?" Amanda asked."You have no right to know who our boss is?" The person who was sitting in the passenger seat said."How much did they pay you. I will pay you double... no triple... you know what I will just pay you however much money you want as long as you let me go." Amanda threw out her bet.From their conversations, she had learned that this people only cared about money and they will do anything to get.They were a gang who did illegal activities to make a living."Are you kidding? Do you know how much money was paid just to get you?" The man in the passenger seat said. He seemed to be the most talkative among the three of them."I'm not kidding, just name your price. As long you let me go I will give you whatever you want."Seein
The person who had been called boss stood up and moved to where Amanda was. He bent infront of her and held her chin up forcing Amanda to look at him. When she saw his face closely, Amanda got the shock of her life and her heart almost stopped beating. Wasn't this Godfrey, the one person who was feared in the whole country. Rumours had it that he was the most dangerous gang leader in the underworld, no one messed with him and remained alive. She had heard of him in her past life. She remembered his face because he was once number one on the criminals wanted list. His pictures were posted everywhere and everyone in the city knew him. The government had put a 100 million bounty on his head. To many, he was known as the godfather of her underworld. But even when she died, the person had not been found. In both her lifetimes, this was the first time she has been in close contact with him. Amanda felt that God must
Seeing them come at her with undisguised expressions and seeing their ugly faces, Amanda felt like throwing up. The moment they tried to touch her, she hit the filthy hand away. "Don't touch me with your filthy hands." Amanda said coldly. "Woman, you better behave. We don't have time to play games with you." The man whose hand had been slapped away said in a sinister voice. "You think that I'm afraid of you. Don't you dare touch me. I warn you to keep your filthy and dirty hands away from me." "Hahaha, what are you going to do? You cannot be thinking that someone is going to save you or you are going to escape right? No one has ever escaped from the hands of our boss! You better cooperate before things get ugly." After the man said that, he tried to touch her again. Amanda took the chance and bit his hand hard with all her mighty. The man winced in pain not at all thinking that the woman will suddenly bite him. His hand tur
When Godfrey clearlysaw who the man was, his legs finally gave way. Even the gun he was holding in his hands fell down on the floor."Richard Howell... so this woman was telling the truth." Godfrey was in a state of panic. Although he pretended to believe that woman when she said that she was Richard's woman, but in realy sense, he did not believe her at all.How could Richard Howell date a lowly actress. Before they accepted any mission, they had to do a thorough investigation on the person they were dealing.They only knew that Amanda was a little famous in the entertainment industry, although she had a backer, the person who posted the mission refused to divulge any information, so they could only rely on the little information they gathered.Godfrey did not have enough power in the underground like most people thought and only relied on the fact that his boss did not show himself in the public, to mess around. But he could not use the reso
Amanda was enveloped in darkness, someone was chasing her, she tried to move towards the only source of light but she could not, no matter how much she tried, she could not reach it.Her heart fell as she thought about the fate that awaited her. Was she already in hell. Had God really let her die?Amanda fought to open her eyes but they were so heavy. Her eyelids seemed to carry tons of loads as she could not even move them. The darkness was suffocating her.As she struggled with the darkness and almost gave up, she heard someone shout her name."Amanda hang in there, don't give up. You cannot leave me alone. I will be right there to save you. Even if I can't, I will gladly accompany you to hell. We will always be together, always." The voice started to fade.Amanda thought that the voice sounded familiar, but because of the darkness she could not tell out who was talking.But she felt an explicit peace when she heard that voice. In her past
