Within seconds, a thousand thoughts run through Fiona's mind. Fred Keith knows about her true identity. He knew about her change of personality from Isabella to Fiona. He knows what made her have a different facial look from Isabella and more than that, he saved her life and that of her babies. He is Lan Keith's brother? The latter is searching everywhere for Isabella Manor and she is trying her best to watch her nervousness whenever he mentions the name Isabella by her side. But how long can her secret be kept a secret, how long can she pretend to Lan Keith that she's not Isabella Manor and does not even know the person? What if Fred tells his brother about her, what if he spills the beans and Lan got to know that she's the same person he'd been searching everywhere for? “Do you both know each other?” Lan asked, looking from Fiona to Fred. They should know each other in some other ways but not what he's thinking about. Fred is good with his job but he
Lan glared at his brother, why is he acting as if he doesn't understand what he meant. “How well do you know Fiona?” He asked. He hopes he will understand him now? “As long as I have known Mrs Ebele Johnson. They once visited the hospital when I was on duty and we have had a cordial relationship since then” Fred lied. Inwardly he sighed. See just how he lied to his brother about Isabella. He couldn't bring himself to tell Lan that he had known her since she was surnamed Manor. But somehow, it isn't really a complete lie. He truly had only known Fiona after he met her foster family. And last that he remembers, they are not in each other's bad books. “You've been away for so long and yet have a cordial relationship with the Johnson's?” Lan grumbled, hissing and walking in front of his brother. Fred would never lie to him. They've been siblings all their lives and he certainly knows that he would never prefer other people to him. Seeing his brother wasn't sh
“You are mine. Whatever is said on social media should not in any way affect our relationship” she concluded. She's the master of the game. He cannot back out until she says so. Until she's done with him, he cannot say such things as it's over between them. “The scandal that broke out on social media is nothing compared to the humiliation that you gave me. You hurt me and I don't think there's anything else here for us both” Alex rebuffed. After he heard it with his ears that she prefers other men making love to her, because they can please her well, how could he still consider keeping a relationship with her? Jeniva sneered. She placed the glass of coffee down and accompanied Alex to the top floor. She pushed the door open and got in. She'd told the servants to go off for the night and resume the next morning. She needs to be alone with Alex. If she ever wants to get him back, she needs to settle their differences behind closed doors and her back agains
Things are more complicated than he had thought. No wonder Isabella pleaded with him that Lan mustn't know about her nor should he let him know that she's formally Isabella Manor. “I had an accidental affair with her and I didn't see her again. If I set my eyes on her today, she would be mine, and that's undisputable” Lan added. On the way home, Lan couldn't get his mind off Isabella Manor. But then each time he thinks about her, his mind would always linger back to Fiona. He is guarding his heart and trying hard not to think or get attracted to Fiona that he might find difficult to break away from. But how can he not, when Fiona is also becoming his addiction? But Fred was restless the entire night. Isabella and his brother have a past together. Now, she's hiding her true identity from him and he, on the other hand, is searching everywhere for her. Why is she hiding from him, is there something she doesn't want his brother to know? How can he bring them to
Alex opened his eyes gently and glared at the woman lying by his side. He sighed softly. The more he wants to resist Jeniva,the more difficult it is. Despite his resistance, he still couldn't bring himself to throw Jeniva out. He lifted the duvet and stepped out from it. He glanced at the sleeping woman on the bed before going to relieve himself. Isabella is back. He can't keep frolicking around with Jeniva. She's back with his supposed kids. But the idea is, does she have anything to offer him? He could still get a lot by marrying this promiscuous woman. Her parents' wealth is hers after all. Isabella lost out when she changed her identity. He is after gain and what might profit him. If he could get all he wants from Jeniva, he would and later get separated from her or make her sign her inheritance to him. What does he need a cheap celebrity like her for? What on earth can he get if he let those scandals that broke out ruin his chances of enriching himself with
“Yeah…” Jeniva groans softly. His words would go down his throat. He cannot resist her except she's not surnamed Manor. “Jeniva..” Alex called and gave out a soft quiet moan. His cock was too sensitive to his liking. It was already hard and rigid and he could perceive it making that part of the towel bulge. Jeniva gently pulled the towel off, as she walked over, running her hand over his bare body. Alex found himself caressing her hair and pulling her to himself and smashing his lips against hers. He kissed her fiercely. Holding her nude body against his. His curvy cock poked hard against her. He was ravishing every bit of her lips, possessing it. Then gently, Jeniva disengaged her lips from his and pulled him over, resting his back against the wall as she bent over and sucked. “Fuck…!” Alex groaned passionately. His head tilted to the back as Jeniva sucked him gently first and gradually was increasing the speed to ignite his desires and lust for more.
Fred sighed and said “She was attacked and almost died from stabbing and deep cuts. At the time,she was heavy with twins and barely could breath. I have to place her in intensive care and covered with bandages….” Fred explained everything in detail how her babies were saved and she was placed on oxygen for a few weeks. Her face was damaged beyond recognition and she couldn't step out like every other person because of the low self esteem the scars have left behind. He had advised them to have a surgery done for her to wear a new face but when the surgery was eventually done, Isabella Manor took a different face that looked like that of her saviour. David Keith was quiet for a while. That must be it. But why wouldn't she want to return to her family, why did she choose a different identity that matches with her facial looks? “But the only thing that bothers me is that she knows Lan is searching everywhere for her and yet, pleaded with me not to mention anyth
Meanwhile, in the hospital, Ebele expected that Fiona would call or come over to the hospital and check on Nathan. The test results are out and they need to see the doctor as soon as he comes for a ward round. She tried calling Fiona's cell phone number but it wasn't connecting. It's so unusual of her to switch off her phone and why would she do that when her son is being hospitalised? Ebele then decided to call her husband. James must be home still. He could check on Fiona for her. But she was met with her shock when James beat her to it “Why didn't you allow Fiona to come over last night to rest?” “Fiona is not here. She left the hospital last night to come home” Ebele responded, standing up quickly and asking the servants with her to look after Nathan as she stepped out. “You can't be serious. My daughter was not home last night” James responded. The couple were both quiet for a few seconds. But what they were thinking were similar, Fiona's present whereabouts
Maybe he should go and come back at a time when the present tension has subsided. But then, he wants to know about his daughter as well. He'd been restless from the moment he knows that he has a daughter “My husband and I want to live peacefully. My daughter has always been found innocent and I'm sure that this time,her innocence would be proven once again…” Maria Manor stuttered. Larry Freeman nodded. She's not thinking straight at the moment. What has her daughter's innocence got to do with him and his daughter? “Oh…” Larry trailed off. What the heck! Why would he let his desire lead him this far? He needs to leave immediately and come back another time. “Yes sir. Jeniva was raised like a princess, alongside her cousin, Isabella. These girls grow up knowing only one language: love. How can all these charges be levelled against her? This is unfair. Whoever is doing this to her, will never get away with it. We'll fight for Justice and we'll surely
“I've said it before Lan, that the she-devil surnamed Manor and I aren't related in any way. We lived in the same mansion in the past but that doesn't automatically mean we are family” Fiona complained. Of all the people on earth, why would she be willing to be related to that monster? She would never have imagined that someone with an innocent facial expression can be this callous. “Yeah..I think I remember now, that you once told me she's not your cousin” Lan teased and chuckled. Fiona sighed softly. She glanced at Lan “take me home, I need to rest my head and think about what Jeniva's face would look like when she discovered that I have all the information that would usher her into jail forever..” This feeling makes her belly sweet. Someone needs to be a step ahead of her otherwise, she would think of herself to be something else,lofty and untouchable. “I think we should use this medium to our advantage, Isabella. What her face would look like doesn
Few minutes to 7pm, Lan Keith's private bodyguard called him and informed him that Luna Wesley had arrived at the Suitoria guest house and she's alone. Only then did Lan allow Fiona Johnson to place a call across to her. The latter replied promptly and Fiona asked that she meet her instead. Luna Wesley was dazed and at the same time happy that Miss Johnson honoured her invitation. It means she could get what she wants if she played her card well. Hence she contemplated on going over to meet her wherever she is. She replied and said she doesn't mind. And Fiona said she should step out of the hotel, some bodyguards were going to bring her over. Luna Wesley felt uncomfortable. Besides being a mere secretary to CEO Lan Keith, what other personalities does Miss Johnson have to make her hire bodyguards? Well, perhaps because of her abduction, she suddenly hired men to be her bodyguard. Anyways, what she wants is a ladder to the top. She stepped out and just th
Doe least expected to see the police men in the hospital and in Jeniva's ward to be precise. What the heck do they want from her? “Good day Miss Manor. We are officers from the police department and you are invited to our office to answer a few questions” one of the officers announced. Jeniva Manor's temple was now covered with beads of sweat. How on earth can it be heard that she left the hospital to the police department? She was going to seize the opportunity of having Barr. Doe with her and slip away quietly under less questions from the journalists. But these men, what do they want with her now? They've ruined this opportunity for her. “To be more precise, are you here to arrest my client?” Barr. Doe asked. He's too mature to believe such fairy tales from the police. Going to their office to get questioned was nothing different from being arrested and taken for interrogation. They can use that casual way of saying it to others, but not to some
In the Starlight entertainment industry, things have really gone jangled up. It's not news that Junxi Li has publicly been relieved of his job and his co accomplice had been blacklisted. Majority of the artists were celebrating privately that finally, perhaps a chance has come for them to rise in their career. This is going to be the opportunity they all sought after. Mrs Lorita was explaining the situation to the higher ups in the emergency board meeting. Her husband was out of the country but he had been restless from the moment the news of the scandal became the hottest news in town. Jeniva manor might have been the black sheep caught up in the web of the scandal again but the one suffering the most is the company. How can it be heard that the best entertainment industry in the city has raised such an artist who only knows how to get to the top by using their body to do it? And knowing that such purifying acts were being orchestrated amidst the staff
“Thank you for the honour of doing work with you, Mr Larry. Like I told you some time ago, I found a clue but today, I can point you to exactly where your daughter can be found. But we can only get information concerning her whereabouts, she'd left this city a few years ago and hadn't returned…” Jasmine informed Larry. No one knows how much she worked hard to find out the whereabouts of the Manor's family second Miss. The last sentence in Jasmine's words makes Larry feel uncomfortable. He'd thought he would meet his daughter eventually. But now, he has to begin from somewhere again. Although the information gathered so far was enough pointer for him to begin the second part of his investigation again. At least, he would be able to know the family his daughter had grown up with. “It's alright. You told me back then that her name is Isabella. Does she bear Alfred as her last name too?” He demanded. Did she take up her mother's last name or did she let
Lan kissed her sweetly. Fiona crossed her hands around his neck and kissed him back. It continued and gradually became a passionate one, each deepening the kiss, tongues locked, desire ignited. Fiona felt her body responded to Lan desiring something more satisfying, something more bonding and merging together. She snuggled harder into him and they kissed. A soft moan escaped Fiona's lips and Lan kissed her harder. His body was aflame and his hardness was going really rigid when his phone chirped. Lan reluctantly paused and pulled out of the kisses. Fiona's cheeks blushed as she felt shy at her sudden vulnerability in Lan's arms. Lan answered his phone and when he hung up, he said “Jeniva Manor has become a blacklisted artist in the Starlight entertainment industry. Meanwhile, investigation is ongoing on the cause of death of Scorpion's men . I have this strong intuition that they were poisoned and the mastermind behind this act cannot be far from that cou
“What? I already agreed to open up to you. Why should I lose my teeth?” Scorpion demanded, his eyes reddened and popping out,beads of sweat emerged on his temple. No one responded to him but the bodyguard seized the chance he got, when he decided to explain and kept his lips apart with the plier and before Scorpion could say Jack, he heard a sound of a noise on his tooth. The sound travelled through his ears and he heard a loud hollow noise that forced his way out of his ears and the pain followed. His head seemed to spin in pain. His brain seemed to only process the degree of pain while other impulses were placed on a temporary breakdown. Then the second hitting, he raised his ass up like he was going to jump out of the chair but he couldn't go beyond that. His legs were tied and so were his hands. He screamed in pain as suddenly he felt a force pulling out of his tooth. He screamed louder and painfully. Blood gushed out of his mouth and his he
Larry goggled through the recent news in Florida and stumbled upon the news of a certain abducted woman Fiona Johnson. This kind of news is everywhere these days but the active response of the police team was commendable. The fact that the criminals were apprehended speaks well of their professionalism but the breaking news of having those criminals dead in the police custody was something else. For the three men to have died at once in a single night calls for alarm. There's something wrong somewhere. There's an insider, a Judas among the twelve. Until that bad sheep is fished out of the fold, people would begin to lose trust in the Police department. As he perused through his phone, he was sipping from his glass of alcohol. Then the Jeniva Manor scandal broke out. Seeing the headlines, he scrolled over it, without bothering to read it. Youths of this generation are like that. Youthful exuberance, careless adventure. From what he'd found out, this
