When granny Ann gave the private investigator Tyrone's address, he got up and left but before then, he warned, "if the information you have given to me turns out to be false, you will be severely punished."After he left, granny Ann heaved a sigh of relief and locked her door. She had lied to the private investigator because she knew that if they thought she was Tyrone's granny who had disowned him, they would leave her be.She hoped Tyrone would be dealt with for good but her fear now was Tanya. If she told them the truth that she was her grand aunt and had sold her off to Tyrone, she would surely be done for.She didn't have anyone else and didn't know where to run to hence, all she could do was pray that Tanya kept her mouth shut and didn't expose her to the private investigator.She would have told Tyrone to run away but she loathed him with passion. He had been collecting most of her pension and making her live a miserly life all thanks to her good-for-nothing grandson.The priva
The private investigator kept staring at Tanya as she was being led out of the house. Drew noticed the lustful look in his eyes and smiled. He stared at the stall owner and asked, "you brought a client for me?"The stall owner smiled and replied, "he's my very good friend so be sure to treat him well."The stall owner left the private investigator at Drew's apartment and went back to his stall. The private investigator took out the pack of cigarettes he had bought and all the guys present took one each, lighted them, and began to smoke, and soon the whole room was covered with smoke.As the private investigator sat down, two of the prostitutes tried to get his attention by flashing their boobs and p**sy at him. He maintained a lustful look in his eyes as he wanted to be very convincing."I like this one," he said while pointing at one of the girls who was whining her waist and drinking from a beer bottle. "I also want that redhead. The one who left just now, she's so pretty."Drew lau
When he had calmed down, Colby boarded his private jet and left for Cuba. Tanya opened her eyes and yawned. She looked around her and realized that she was alone. The last thing she could remember was eating the food given to her by Tyrone.She got up from the bed but realized her p**sy was very sore. She tried to understand why and the events that happened earlier in the day slowly came back to her. She lay back on the bed and began to cry.She needed to act fast, she couldn't live her life like this. She suddenly had an idea and got up from the bed. She looked at the clothes on her body, she was almost naked and whoever saw her would instantly conclude that she was a prostitute but that was the least of her problems.She went to the door and realized that it had been locked from the outside. She looked around the house but couldn't find any weapon to help her break down the door. She went into the kitchen and saw a small knife.She picked up the knife and went to the door. She trie
Drew happily walked toward where he parked his car. He felt so fortunate. Tanya was his new favorite and he was going to make sure she was treated better than the others. She was now his lucky charm.Just as he got close to his car, police officers came out of nowhere and pressed him against the car as a handcuff was placed around his wrists with his hands at his back.When Tyrone saw what was happening, he opened the other side of the car and tried to get off but two officers immediately grabbed him and handcuffed him while saying that he was under arrest. He screamed in pain when his hands were handcuffed behind his back.The wound on his shoulder was still fresh and painful. He hadn't taken his time to get it properly treated as he was in a haste to deliver Tanya to their client.His shoulder began to bleed and soon his shirt was soaked with blood. He begged the officers to have mercy because of his injured arm but they ignored him since Colby Tanner had paid enough money to ensure
Tanya opened her eyes and realized that she was in a strange room. Her hands were chained to the bed post and she was naked. She struggled to remember how she ended up here and recalled that Tyrone had applied makeup on her after she had injured him and he had taken her to meet with a client.She remembered meeting Colby Tanner but felt she must have imagined it. How could it be? Colby wasn't someone who would patronize Tyrone and he wasn't even in Cuba, besides he had already found himself a new girl who made him happy, so, there was no reason why he would bother with her so she definitely imagined him.However, she wondered who Tyrone had delivered her to. Was he a human trafficker or a drug baron? What was he going to do with her and why did he chain her naked to the bedpost? While Tanya was still thinking, Colby Tanner opened the door and came into the room. She was very surprised to see him. As she slowly got up from the cold floor, she closed her eyes and opened them again beli
After sitting in a daze for a while, Tanya got up from the bed. She realized that everything had been placed inside the room for her and quickly made use of them.After brushing her teeth and taking her bath, she felt very hungry but she was afraid of leaving the room because Colby had given his orders. Back in the living room where he sat, Colby struggled to contain his anger. He found himself replaying that scene of Tanya and Tyrone until he could not take it anymore. He called the inspector handling the case to find out if Tyrone and Drew were being tortured according to his instructions.The inspector gave him his word and added that he could stop by the station and see for himself. When the officer asked him about the prostitutes who had been arrested as well, Colby's mind went to Tanya briefly before he replied, "free them all."After getting off the phone with the inspector, he called his personal assistant and gave him a few instructions. A few minutes later, a hair stylist a
Colby and Tanya kept staring at each other until he angrily turned and walked away. He went into his room, punched his hand on the door, and cursed out loud from the pain.After a while, he called the doctor and said, "I want to know the result of Tanya's test as soon as possible." The doctor said, "Okay, I'm coming to see you right away." True to his words, the doctor arrived soon and met with Colby. "Other than a few illegal substances in her system, she seems to be fine for now," the doctor told him. "It's too soon to tell if she has any infection but I brought some medication for her which will help in washing her system. She should be safe after twenty-four hours of taking it."Colby didn't want to see Tanya's face again. He asked the doctor to take the medication to Tanya and ensures that she takes it while he left the house to sit out with friends.While they were drinking, Colby's friends noticed that his mood was off as he had barely smiled since he came. "Why do you look
Tanya was surprised that Colby wanted to take her to the club. It wasn't her kind of place but she was happy nonetheless. The fact that Colby was taking her with him somewhere was a good sign. It could be a new beginning for their relationship and she was optimistic that soon enough, Colby would give her the opportunity to explain what really happened to her.Tanya took the clothes into her room without a word and got dressed. As she stared at her reflection in the mirror, she felt quite unhappy. The Colby she knew hated seeing her in clothes like this so why did he want her to dress this way?She convinced herself that it was probably because they were going to the club. She had never been to one before so it was possible that this was how people dressed for the club. She reminded herself that Colby once loved her and if she did whatever he wanted without complaining, he was bound to love her again.When Tanya came out of the room, Colby stared at her, the red handless gown she wore
Colby had just arrived at the scene when he saw Sandra push Tanya into the lake. He screamed, "no," and ran out of his car as he ran toward the lake.Sandra stared at him in shock, unable to believe that Colby had caught her in the act. Colby dived into the lake without any hesitation.Meanwhile, Sandra heard sirens blaring and knew that the police had arrived. She did not believe that Colby would send her to jail because he had made a promise to her late sister.However, she was afraid that if the police arrested her there, her face would be all over the news. She decided to run but at that moment, the police officers surrounded her and pointed their guns at her. Colby took Tanya out of the lake and laid her on her back. She had lost consciousness already but he quickly untied her hands, freed her mouth, and applied compressions on her chest until she inhaled and coughed out water from both her nose and mouth.As she stared at Colby, Tanya began to cry. Colby looked at Sandra who had
Sandra quickly pulled Tanya's body out from under the bed and carried her out of the room. She left through the back door and Colby knew that she had come in through the back gate. Someone must have opened it for her.He sent the important parts of the footage to Henry and sent him Sandra's pictures, address, phone number and every other information he felt would be useful to Henry.The police chief quickly sent some officers to Sandra's house and began trying to track her location using her phone number and satellite. Colby paced up and down restlessly as he waited for Henry to get back to him.He tried calling Sandra's number so many times but could not get through to her. He regretted leaving Tanya all by herself. He should have been there with her or gotten her a bodyguard at least. If anything happened to Tanya, he would never be able to forgive himself.Their wedding was already twenty minutes behind schedule and calls were coming in but Colby ignored them because he wasn't in t
In the days leading up to Colby's wedding with Tanya, he spent most of his time working in the office while Tanya spent most of her time trying to catch up in college.This was because Colby had promised her that they were going on a one week trip for their honeymoon. Tanya had no idea where he was taking her since he had insisted that it was a surprise but, she was excited all the same and hoped that the experience would be similar to the one she enjoyed in the Bahamas.In a twinkle of an eye, the day finally arrived. Maria had tried using different numbers to call Tanya and when she did not succeed, she sent her husband to convince Tanya to let him stand in as her father and give her away since they were the only relatives she had left.However, Tanya said, "Colby Tanner is both my father and my mother so do not burden yourself with trying to take on that role. When I need someone to step in, Colby will be there. "After she hung up, her uncle angrily complained to Matt, asking him
"I said yes to the love of my life." Tanya wrote before posting her pictures with Colby on her social media account.Ever since Colby proposed to her, Tanya had felt as though she was living a dream. A few times she had asked Colby to pinch her to confirm to herself that she wasn't dreaming.Her weekend vacation with Colby in the Bahamas had given her some of the sweetest moments of her life. They went swimming together, ate breakfast at the luxurious paradise hotel, and gazed at the stars together at night. She had so many pictures of the brief time they spent and she had almost cried when Colby reminded her that it was time to go back home.He assured her that they would visit again but she knew it wasn't going to be the same. After taking almost two days to pick out some lovely pictures and asking for Colby's opinion, she finally posted the pictures that showed when Colby went on his knees and proposed to her, when they were dancing on the yacht, having breakfast at the paradise ho
Tanya frowned at Colby, "who was it that said, 'everything you need has been packed by me' and yet ended up bringing along only bikinis and swimsuits?"Colby chuckled, "did you really not see your other clothes in the room?"Tanya rolled her eyes while Colby smiled and held her hand as he said, "come with me."He took her back into the room and straight to the closet. Tanya was surprised because she had not noticed the closet before, probably because it did not look like one on the outside. Colby opened it and showed her three different gowns, two pairs of jeans, and two shirts.Tanya covered her face and laughed while Colby said, "I put them here while you were sleeping to make it easier for you. I also left you enough hints about having a surprise for you tonight. I was hoping that you would come out dressed in one of these sexy gowns. Who would have thought that you would come out wearing a swimsuit?""I made a mistake," Tanya replied. "I should have checked properly. I will get dr
Colby and Tanya had lunch in their bedroom inside the yacht. After that, they sat on the bed and sorted out the pictures Tanya had taken and picked the ones that were good enough to be posted on Instagram.Tanya made sure she tagged her cousin, Matt in the post and kept staring at her phone to see if he would react to the pictures.She got some likes and comments from people she didn't even know and thanked them for their kind words. Matt finally reacted with surprise emojis while Tanya screamed in excitement.He messaged her privately and asked, "are you really in the Bahamas?""Yes," Tanya replied. "I'm currently in a yacht and it's so beautiful. I know how much you like this place, perhaps on my next visit, I'll bring you and aunt Maria with me so you can enjoy yourselves as well."When he read Tanya's words, Matt quickly recalled what his mum had said to Tanya years ago and said, "forget it Tanya. I know my mum was horrible to you and I haven't forgotten, don't worry, I will make
Colby pulled Tanya closer to his body and hugged her, "I'm so sorry about everything you suffered in the past, Tanya. I contributed to the sufferings you and your grandma faced back then and for that, I am truly sorry."Tanya stared at him in surprise, "what are you talking about?"Colby hesitated because he was afraid of Tanya's reaction but he did not want them to hide things from each other. He believed that they were at a stage where they could trust each other completely so, after what seemed like an eternity, he said, "back when you and your granny were thrown out of the house, I arranged for it to happen because I wanted you to come running to me. I was desperate and what I did was wrong. I have no excuse for it. "Tanya's eyes widened as tears rolled down get cheeks. She got up and ran towards the toilet while Colby ran after her. She closed the door on him before he could get to her and cried her heart out while inside.She recalled how her granny had cried that day and how sh
Tanya stared at the luggage in front of her in surprise, "is this the only bag I will be taking with me on our trip?" "Yes, it is," Colby replied. "it's just two days, baby and you were so indecisive about what to take with you so I did some shopping, and trust me, everything you need for this trip is right inside this bag."Tanya smiled, "how can you be so sure? What if there's something you forgot to include?""That is not possible," Colby replied confidently. "listen to me, baby girl, I've been to the Bahamas before and so I can say that everything you need is in there. We should get going now, our pilot has been waiting for so long."Tanya thought for a while and finally said, "Okay, I'm choosing to trust you but if you fail me, you will not hear the last of it."Colby laughed before leading the way out of the house. He opened the door of the car for Tanya and said, "this way, ma'am."Tanya took the passenger seat and said, "thank you, sir."They soon arrived at the hangar and as
The private investigator came into the house and they all exchanged pleasantries. After that, he went straight to the point and said, "I was able to put the listening device on Shelia and stayed around until I got the information I wanted. As usual, Derek arrived and they spent time discussing a lot of things. I've trimmed out the boring parts and I know that their conversation will interest you."He played the audio from his phone and in it, Sheila could be heard saying, "I told you not to bring up this Colby Tanner issue again but you are bent on it, Derek. The boyfriend I got who works in Colby's control room was released yesterday along with others and he did not rat us out so let's just cut our losses and forget about this."Derek said, "no Sheila, I've put all my hope on inheriting Colby's wealth when he's gone. I've told you that Tanya is easy to manipulate so how can we let go of such a good opportunity? The first plan was a near success, it was just bad that Colby wasn't the
