I rubbed my forehead but I still had no idea and for all I could remember there was no maid in my father's house, we have never had a maid. "What is her name?" I looked at Russelli, this may give me a clue. "What is the maid's name?"
"Are you being serious now Russeli?" Dominic said with frustration as his eyes darkened. "You never told me her name even after I asked you to, you were protective of her and even told me not to visit you at home, for me not to convert her."
I was in a daze, all Dominic was telling me I just couldn't grab any, all of them seemed blank to me, all those words made my head spin, but he continued. "You know what Russeli? If you know where she was at this moment, let me know, I will go find her."
I shook my head and exhaled softly. "You mean to say we have a maid in our mansion and I liked h
Natasha POVMr Gilbert called me over for a meeting and since I had decided to do the music, I had to go. When I got into the office, I could see the curious stare from the lady I had met only once and I wondered why she was here.I glanced over at Russeli who flashed me a smile, but I didn't smile back, I wasn't going to act friendly anymore. I shook hands with Mr Gilbert who has a goofy smile on his lips. "Gilbert Ryan, it is a pleasure to meet you again," I said with gritted teeth.I wish I could punch that smile off his face, would he even smile this way to me when he discovers who I am. I doubt that. After the compliment, I sat down and looked at Russelli. "It has been a while Russeli," I said professionally without any smile on my face.I had decided to give him th
Natasha's POV.The next day Russeli arrived at my apartment and was let in by Sinead after I permitted him. I walked down the stairs, wearing a long black dress that sweeps the floor in every step I take and the look on Russeli's face pleased me.This was one reason why I like dressing up, to get that his glowing eyes lustfully look at me, even when I won't let him touch me, this was like inward torture, but at the same time I get pleased from each ogling.I flashed him a thin smile and sat down on the sofa across from him. "It has been a while since we sat together like this," I told him, but his eyes were still staring at me, I blushed and looked down, crossing my legs as I adjusted my hair."Yes, it has." I could see him licking down his lips from the corner of my eye
Natasha POVI open it up and saw few files and then a flash drive, I glance through the files but was more curious as to what I could see in the flash drive, so I plugged it into my laptop and opened the file, it was a video so I clicked on it and my eyes dilated as I gasped, clasping my hand to my lips in horror."Russelli." I gasped as tears streamed down my eyes.In the video, Russeli was covered in blood and barely alive as he was rushed into the operating room for surgery. The surgery was carried out and also a blood transfusion. I had thought I had been more injured, but Russeli's was worse.If it wasn't for a thing, I wouldn't blame Mr Gilbert for slapping me across the face and also blaming me for killing his son.Aft
I met Dominic at his apartment after leaving Natasha's, I should have stayed with Natasha, but I was desperate to find out what happened in the past, to find out about the so-called maid I wanted to flee with and to know why my dad was keeping all these a secret from me."What did you find out about her?" I asked Dominic without hesitation. When your mind's made up to find out the truth, each passing time makes you impatient."It is more about you and not her." Dominic's words made me puzzled. I don't understand what he meant, but I knew there was a piece missing, so I was curious to know all about it. "The day you decided to leave with her, your car got hit by a truck." My eyes dilated as he continued. "You both got into an accident."Accident? I closed my eyes and my head all felt empty, why don't I remember any o
Yvonne POVDave brought all the information regarding Natasha Wilbur to me, we had decided to meet up at the café we normally met. I opened the file with curiosity as I went through what was in it, but was disappointed since there was nothing I didn't already know that was in here.I look up at Dave who was busy sipping his coffee and ogling at me with those big eyes of his. "Is this all you can find about her?" I lifted the file he had given me. "I know about everything here. I know that she is a popular musician and wealthy one at that, I know that her family is also wealthy and I know all about her music career. I need something new."He chuckled and I glared at him, already knowing that he was up to something now. "You have to pay me for the next file, this is the most entertaining." He curled up his lips
Natasha's POV.My doorbell rang and I walked over to see who it was through the monitor since I had no appointment with anyone and my assistant was away for the afternoon.I smirked when I saw Yvonne out there, I had been expecting her one of these days and it happened to be today I was in such a good mood to face her.I let her in and she walked over to me with a document in her hands and furrowed brows as she angrily placed the document on the table. "I found out who you really are. Natasha Wilbur is the same person as Malinda Kristen."I was in shock, I had not expected Yvonne to find this truth out and I had made sure of it, I looked at the file on the table scared of what might be in it and I was stiffened as she continued to rant.
Yvonne POV.I walked into the mansion and headed straight to Gilbert's study room. I have been here for the past four years. I always come in here with a smiling face, but today was different."How have you been, Yvonne?" Mr Gilbert who was going through what looks like a document asked me as he raised his head to see my face."I am not okay," I told him without hesitation and placed the copy of the document Dave had given to me on his desk. "Take a look at this." I had no regret in doing this, I was angry and so much in love that I lost my sense of reasoning."What is that?" He looked at the document and then frowned at me. "Yvonne. You still went on searching for her information?" He raised his brow.I had told him I was go
"You look familiar. " Dominic said and I glanced over at Russeli who was now staring at me intensely."Oh really," I laughed it off. "I have been on tv shows and magazines a lot, maybe you knew me from those.""No." Dominic insisted and looked at Russell and then at me. "You look like a friend from four years ago, her name is Malinda Kristen."I swallowed hard and looked at Russelli with wide eyes, he stared at me for quite a long time and turned to his friend."Dominic, how can Natasha Wilbur take after your friend, you must have seen a lot of ladies in your past." He smiles.I didn't know if I should feel sad or happy, but a void was left in my heart, was he ever going to recognise me.
Four years laterIn between four years, Mr Gilbert who had gained success and a lot of enemies along the way became more greedy and terminated the joint contract he had with Mr Malcolm.Mr Gilbert began dropping directors who had been working with him for years now because he was scared his company would be taken away since he didn't know who his enemies were and had no friends.Most other directors saw his aim and greed and withdrew their shares and not less than a month his company started falling apart and staff seeing that the company was going to run into bankruptcy soon had to resign.Meanwhile, Mr Malcolm starts up his own music company after the betrayal of Mr Gilbert and he attracts investors and his company grew while Mr Gilbert's dropped, all the investors rej
Natasha pov"You see, If I loved you, I wouldn't have done this round-up kiss with them, '' he chuckled and then held another one's thigh letting his hands slide through her pant line and I heard the lady loud moan and I couldn't bear to watch anymore.I got up in tears and took the glass of beer he was drinking and I wasted it on his face, tossing the glass away. "If this is the method you want to use in sending me away, then know that you took it so far and you took it all the wrong way."I closed my eyes and tears filled my eyes. "I don't know your reason for doing all these, but, if you have decided to live your life this way then you can go on."I wipe off my tears and then look into his eyes that were staring at mine. "I truly love you and I can't let you live your
RusselliI drove to Dominic's apartment and let myself in, I was in tears as I walked over to Dominic who was about to take a huge bite on a hamburger."I broke up with her." These were the first words I said and I watched Dominic put down the hamburger and look at me like I had said the most ridiculous thing ever."You broke up with whom?" Dominic shook his head as if what he just asked was useless. "You broke up with Natasha... I mean to say, Malinda!" His pupils enlarged and his brows snapped. "Why would you do that?" He wipes off his hands and gets up from the chair."That's because I am a coward," I closed my eyes and felt something warm roll down my cheek. "I can't protect her," I placed my hands on my hair and slowly sat down on the floor like a lost soul. "I can'
RusselliI took Malinda to the beach, it was a place I had to happen to discover and it was peaceful and quiet, only the sound of the wave and water could be heard, I sat down with her as we watched the wave, her head was on my shoulders and we were quiet like we had a lot of things to think inside our head before letting them out.She was wearing a yellow beach dress, maybe because I told her I would be taking her here. She had come up with this outfit that makes it hard for me to look away from her. Her hair was blown backwards by the light breeze and it made her face more adorable to look at. She wore light makeup and her lips were picky and plump and I felt the urge to kiss her lips, but this was not why I brought her here."I am really happy to be here with you Russeli." A broad smile spread through her face, s
The stage room was set in an Oran company, fans were crowded in the hall and the world was waiting for this show that had long been announced, this music show that would change many lives and dreams, a piece of music that would be sung by the most popular female musician in the world.I looked over at Russeli who was standing by my side with a black jacket and a black trouser, his hair was curled up bringing out the beautiful shape of his face and his straight nose, his eyes glitter with glint and like the stars the shines in the sky as he stares back at me.I was wearing a golden dress that stopped at my feet, a straight line running down from my thigh exposing part of my legs and the golden heels I wore, the top side of the dress was glittering and exposing part of my upper boobs. My hair was left to fall perfectly behind my back and the bottom was trimmed ne
"Should I fight back?" I asked in a whisper holding back the tears that filled my eyes. "Why would I when that person is your father?" I was also considering him, no matter what Gilbert had done he was still the father of the man I love."Can't you just fight my father and not look at me? I am okay with it, Malinda." He looked tormented and I know that I could fall apart if I continue this conversation."I can't, so please let me do this," I said seriously and turned to Sinead who was behind me. "Let's go, Sinead before I break down here." I turned around without another glance at Russell and walked off with tears in my eyes, this was something I should do and leave karma to do the rest.I sat down by my window staring at the birds that were flying cheerfully in the sky and it makes me wonder if they also go through
NatashaHe looked at me sharply as his eyes darkened and his jaw clenched. "My company..." He said in a domineering voice. "You will increase its status and you will make me number one. Why? Because love makes people weak."He leans back to his chair. "If you want to fight back you should come when you are fully prepared." All I could feel was sorrow and hate, this man would never change, what was I expecting when I made my way to this place.Tears filled my eyes but I refused to let him see me cry, I was falling apart. "You have sold your soul to the devil Gilbert Ryan, but one day you shall understand what you have done when there is no one by your side, you shall wake up and find that everyone has turned their back on you and you would be left alone to reap all you have sowed."
I got into my father's study room and there he was seated like a real gentleman, just like an honourable man, but with a dark heart, so dark that no light could outshine it."Is this how far you would go?" I asked immediately if he looked up at me. "Is this how far you would go in your ambition to acquire wealth? Going as far as killing your son just to get what you want.""What are you talking about?" He closed the document in his front and leaned back to his chair."You know what I am fucking talking about!" I barked as I looked at the emotionless man."Russeli, I know you are angry at me, but you need to calm down and let me understand what you are saying?" I chuckled as tears rolled down my eyes.How can someone be this c
Russelli.I received a call from an unregistered number, I wanted not to pick up but out of curiosity I did and it was Gavin, the man who had held Natasha's waist, the man who she had told me was the reason she was who she was today.That daring man!He asked me to meet him and I reluctantly went. We sat down at a wine bar and had a glaring competition before I finally spoke up seeing that he wasn't saying anything."Why did you call me out?" I lean back to my chair and try to act as nonchalant as I do, he seems calm with nothing to give away, so this was the American man that helped my Malinda Kristen."What do you think of me?" His questions surprised me since it was only the ladies I expected to hear these words from. "I m
