The sun shined brightly through the window Valerie had left opened the night before, she could swear that she had closed it before but she was probably just imagining that she did and not that she actually did. She secretly hoped Justin would give her a necklace the night before but he didn't and she was slightly disappointed but she waved off with the fact that he at least got two right.
She heard and knock on the door and went to open the door and it was Justin who knocked.
"What do you say we grab a meal at noon today?" Justin asked but Valerie was smitten by his dazzling look in a suit and his masculine scent.
"Valerie?" Justin said.
"Sure..." Valerie stuttered and Justin chuckled which revealed a little part of his white teeth and Valerie thought they could use his teeth for an advert for toothpaste.
Justin left and went to work and Valerie went to take her bath deciding tha
Valerie returned to work to find the work she left behind waiting for her, although a few had been sorted out by her manager. She took off her boots, wore her slippers, and rolled her sleeves up. She was ready to continue from where she stopped but now with a smile on her face. She smiled brightly remembering when Justin had put his hands on her lips helping her wipe the crumb of chicken from her lips."I'm sure you are not smiling brightly because you saw me," Tyler said as she walked in."Oh Tyler," Valerie chuckled as she watched Tyler walk into the office."So what's making you smile so brightly?" Tyler asked.Valerie was about to reply to her when her phone started ringing. She checked the caller Id but it was an unknown number. Then it dawned on her that it was the number that always called her but never spoke up. She picked the call up."Hello," she said.
The sun was up but not everybody was up. The sun glinted through the window and into her eyes. Samantha woke up and opened her eyes. She was stark naked and laid beside her was a fat man who reeked of alcohol. He was stark naked too and only heavens know what went on between them the night before. She was very disturbed the day before and she had put on a mini red gown which exposed not her thighs but also her boobs area, covering only her nipples down to her laps. She had gone to the club and drank to her fill. She was very drunk and tip and someone had offered to take her home, she agreed even when she knew she didn't know the person because she was drunk. She got up and entered the bathroom to bathe."Yuck!" She exclaimed looking around the bathroom. It was full of broken tiles and dirty all over the place. Samantha didn't know if she should puke or just walk out of the place. She decided to go home like that, she went back to the room and looked around. It w
Justin rushed over to the hospital and when he got there, he quickly dashed to his mother's room to see her. She was looking paler than before and she was even breathing heavily as well."Mother," Justin said with a croaked voice."Just... In," his mother said with her voice trailing off with the last words."What's going on?" Justin asked and she smiled a weak smile."A mother who doesn't advice her child is worse than an infidel," she said and chuckled. Justin laughed too but nervously at her joke."Come here," she said and Justin moved to hug her and that's when he noticed she was paler and shrunken in size."Sit down," she said using her eyes to direct him to the chair close since her hands were too heavy and she was too weak."Can you do me a favor?" His mother asked."Yes..." Justin whispered. 
Chapter 42(Life goes on by BTS plays in the background)Justin had driven to a bridge. It was an isolated bridge.He sat on the floor as he stepped out of his car."Why?" He screamed and the birds there flew away in fright."Why does this always happen to me?" Justin yelled with tears dropping freely from his eyes."Why does everyone I love always leave?" He thought inwardly as he used his palms to cover his face."First, it was Jaden, and now mom!" Justin thought inwardly."It is all my fault," he mumbled as he cried. He was soaked with his tears and sweats."If only I didn't leave them both," he mumbled.While he sat, he remembered when Jaden's dad had come to beg his father to take down the news report about Jaden's death but his father had refuse
Chapter 43Valerie couldn't believe what had transpired between her and Justin just now. She couldn't believe her eyes nor ears. She knew he was heartbroken but she never knew he'll take it out on her like that. She sighed heavily and closed her eyes to fall asleep.Since she couldn't sleep, she woke up quite early even before her alarm rang. She checked around the house but Justin was nowhere to be found, it was like he didn't return after he had stormed out the night before.Valerie decided to enter his room, she was just curious about how it looked, she had entered before but wasn't focused because of his bare chest that she had seen. The door was opened and she walked inside. It was a beautiful room painted in blue color. His curtains were cream, he had different designs and lots of lotions, body creams, perfumes, and roll-ons on his dressing table. And on his walls, he had a picture of them on the wedding day. He an
Valerie wondered where Justin could have gone. While everyone chatted away about what Mrs smith had said or done to help their lives. Valerie stood up to look for Justin. She hoped he wasn't trying anything stupid.She saw the stairs and decided to take them. While she looked for Justin, she could explore the house too, "I mean no one was watching me, were they?" she thought inwardly.There were a total of eight doors on that floor. She looked around and saw that there were other stairs on the other side that had four doors as well. She panted heavily as the stairs she had just taken had been one hell of a staircase.She opened the first door and it was very dark inside, the windows were closed and so were the curtains, she wanted to put on the light but she decided not to since it would take her focus off what she was doing. She wondered what the room could be since it was broad daylight and it was very dark in it. She
Justin had noticed a shadow at the door and he wondered who sat at the door listening to the conversation he was having with his nanny. He had said that he was returning downstairs so he could catch the person but the person had taken off the moment he said that by the time he opened the door, he had only seen her clothes and her hair as she ran down the stairs. He followed and when he had gotten down downstairs, he knew it was Valerie. He was about to approach her and ask when his father had come to talk about them having dinner together."You knew?" Valerie stuttered."Yes, I saw you run," Justin said as he drove."I'm sorry for eavesdropping, I was looking for you and I stumbled across a maid who told me you'll be there, I didn't want to enter when you were inside talking to someone so I stayed behind and listened, I'm really sorry," Valerie said apologizing to him."Never do that again," Justin s
Chapter 46Valerie couldn't sleep a wink throughout the night, she kept thinking about the letter she had read and the pictures of the beautiful baby girl that she had seen earlier during the day.She was contemplating what to do about it. She knew Justin given the state he was in now would condemn her for going through someone's house without permission but was it better for him to find out later that she had taken something from his parent's home?She got up and went to the fridge to get a bottle of water to drink. She jumped with fright when she saw Justin pouring milk and cereals into a bowl."Uhm late night snack?" She asked nervously."Yeah" Justin chuckling noticing her nervousness."I'll leave you to it then," Valerie said and made to leave but Justin held her back."I thought you came to take something?" Justin said."Uhm.
The news for the next few weeks was filled with all sorts of things and the tabloid wasn't left out in it."The real owner of STE enterprises reclaimed his company"."The undertakers were caught by the CCPD, the president commends them a job well done"."Fake or plastic surgery man who pretended to be Mr smith the late owner of STE enterprises commit suicide"." Turns out the tyrant who died 5 years ago wasn't a tyrant at all"."The undertakers' group were all sentenced to life imprisonment while the lots who were arrested at Nirvana were given verdicts of their own based on the number of their Crimes""Tyrant who identifies as Jaden was actually a good student of Central City university, the press offers its apology to his family"All sorts of news were on the television, on the internet, and even in the newspapers.The news could really kill a man, Justin thought as he got ready for their day out.They wanted to go out
While Justin tried each door trying to look for his wife, he thought if what Scott had said was true, he wondered if all the people he loved actually died because he wasn't a good person or maybe he was a killer in his past life and this was a way to make up for the deaths of the people he had caused.He wasn't one to pray but he mumbled a prayer as he opened the door trying to find the love of his life. He really didn't want to lose her before he could appreciate her.He opened the last door and he saw someone by the door.He recognized the clothes she had put on before she left before."Valerie" he mumbled."Justin," she said softly and began to cry. He couldn't comfort her there so he scooped her up and carried her in bridal style down the stairs. She was cold and weak, he hoped she was okay more so he hoped their baby was okay as well.He carried her downstairs to see detective Joe had caught Scott."You didn't think I'll let you
Justin started asking them questions and immediately Martin agreed to answer them."How much do you know, Scott?" Justin asked just to be sure they were not wasting their time."I know him well enough. He's my homey," Martin said.Okay, where is his secret hideout? Justin asked immediately."Secret hideout?" Martin asked."Besides the undertakers' home, I don't think he got any," Martin said."You think?" Justin scoffed angrily."I'm serious," Martin said."Y'all already searched the hideout and he wasn't there," Martin asked."If we didn't, we wouldn't be asking you," Xavier scoffed."So much for friendship," Justin mumbled.Martin was taken back to his cell since he had nothing to offer and Ronnie was brought in."He claims they are friends, yet he knows nothing about his homey, shit!" Justin cussed.Martin came in minutes later and they cuffed him to the table as they did to Ronnie.
The whole room was cold. It wasn't where a human should be. One would freeze to death if left here for long.Valerie woke up in this room with chains around her hands, but she was on the bed. Valerie couldn't tell what it was because she couldn't see the label on the stacks of unopened cans.She tried to sit up, but she couldn't, as her hands were tied, so were her legs. She struggled to free her legs, which were tied with ropes instead of chains, but it only hurt her more.She looked around from the position she was in and turned her head around."What happened?" She thought.
Chapter 96The scandal involving celebrity James was still being discussed in the media. His trial was scheduled for today, and he was expected to be sentenced to a lengthy prison term due to the overwhelming evidence against him.
Justin and detective Joe drove to the hospital, where Tyler was already up and doing that. She wasn't even in her ward, but in the ward where Valerie had been taken to.Justin asked to meet the doctor in charge while he listened to what happened to her from Tyler."She had been vomiting after every meal that we ate today," Tyler explained."What do you mean?" Justin asked."We bought her favorite things because, according to her, she was craving them, but after one bite or two, she goes to throw them up," Tyler explained."Then she hadn't come out of the bathroom the last time she went to throw up, and I went to check up on her, but I found her there and she was unconscious," Tyler explained."So, I called for the doctor," Tyler said."What did the doctor say?" Justin asked.The door opened, revealing the doctor in his white coat with two nurses at his back."You must be Mr. Smith," the doctor said, and that reminded Jus
The celebrity who tried to force his way with his ex-girlfriend was still making headlines.Many other people have called to inform the police about how he attempted to have his with other ladies as well. So far, he's had 11 priors to Tyler's own.His career was really over, big time!His agency wasn't taking it well as there was a troop of protesters outside doing what protesters do. Vandalism!It destroys the agency's property for raising such a bad celebrity and hiding his flaws as well.Anyways, Public sentiment had increased; everyone was angry with James
Justin, detective Joe, and the backup from the police force had found their way to the Nirvana building.Justin would be their bait, and he would enter the building with Detective Joe while the rest of the police force surrounded the building to prevent anyone from escaping.Then some men are standing guard in that underground tunnel in Justin's house.Justin and detective Joe changed their mode of dressing and dressed up as gangsters and dyed their hair so they would look different and unrecognizable. They both entered the building and a lot of people waiting to be coronated were already there."Yo Manny!" Some greeted Justin and detective Joe as they entered the interior.The girls quickly surrounded Justin and detective Joe."I love your blonde hair," one said to detective Joe."Thank you," detective Joe said with a wink."Your wine hair is definitely off the hook. I'm mesmerized. Why don't we go to the corner over there for
The news the next day was filled with different kinds of things that the most loved celebrity in the central city had done.It was definitely the end of his career life. Not only was I caught doing it in the act, but there was also a witness as well. How did the reporters hear about this story?It was no other person than Justin who had the connection that told them all that had happened.Reporters were lining up in the hospital to talk to Tyler, who was the victim, but they couldn't, so they just kept saying all sorts of things, whether they were true or not.Valerie sat with Tyler and they were eating French fries with ketchup as they watched the news right there in the hospital."Is Joe not coming here?" Tyler asked Valerie."He's a busy guy, plus the fact that all of this just happened, gives him a break," Valerie said."What about Justin?" Tyler asked."He's busy too. Just because he's been around all this time doesn't mea
