Rayne's Revenge 67 - More Questions
Rayne's POV The meeting was moving slowly and still very much unproductive because Zia had not said anything tangible and Elliot had not even uttered a single word. I was exhausted from trying to get information from them."If you don't hate me then why have you made it a mission to ruin my life?" I asked her and she sighed and rolled her eyes"Look Rayne, I don't know what you were hoping to achieve with this meeting but I'm already tired of answering all your stupid questions. If I hate you must you know the reason? You need to stop acting like you're the kindest person on earth when one wrongs you. I assaulted you yesterday and what you do is call for a meeting instead of getting me arrested. You're so pathetic and I absolutely despise you"The shock on everyone's face was too epic that I almost bursted out in a nervous laughter. I felt like I had been slapped in the face. Her words were disrespectful and laced with so much malice. I couldn't believe she would still speak to me li

Nathan's POVSomething was off with the behaviors that were exhibited by Zia and Elliot at the meeting and I was worried alongside Rayne that there was something we were not aware of and I had to know what it was for our safety and because Rayne was losing sleep over it."Hey Max, I'll be needing your help with something very important" I said into the phone to my private investigator and even without speaking I knew that he already knew that it was strictly business anytime I called him "What's the situation Sir?" His voice came through from the other side of the phone"I need you to find out some information about the owners of Star Struck, Elliot and Zia. I have a feeling that they might be hiding something so I want you to follow their every move and see what you can find out alright?"He sighed, a sound I knew meant he was already on the case. He always knew not to ask any more questions than I was willing to share and that was why I still worked with him till date. The other i

Rayne's POVBumping into Elliot was not on my to do list at all but it seemed like what I wanted didn't matter because we were standing on the same aisle at the supermarket and he had sighted me when I was about to hide my face,"Rayne. Ryane please don't go, let's talk please" he half screamed and the people nearby had already started to stare and I didn't want to draw more attention to myself so I stood my ground stiffly until he got to me."Rayne .." he said my name again, out of breathe and breathing heavily. I didn't say anything but just stood and looked at him while he tried to catch his breath and once he was able to speak again, he looked at me solemnly,"Thank you for not walking away" I was impatient by then and I just rolled my eyes"What is it that you want Elliot? Please get straight to the point"He cleared his throat and locked his eyes on mine. "I just wanted to apologize on behalf of Zia. I know that she has be been causing trouble and I just want you to know that I'

Rayne's POV"He is up to something" Nathan shook his head after I told him about the conversation I had had with Nathan when he besieged me at the supermarket."Exactly my thoughts but I don't know exactly what he wants to achieve by pretending to suddenly be on our side" I was confused at the reason why he specifically choose this method to use to get whatever it was that he was looking for in order to win this battle between us but I soon pushed the thought to the back of my mind so I could deal with it later when Nathan started telling me about how his own day went"I was surprised when I saw them surround my car because never has it gone down in history that media buses were on the tail of Nathan Sterling because everyone knew that he is not to be joked with " he was pissed all over again as he narrated his encounter with the paparazzi in his way to pick Leo up from school and I was upset too because the audacity that these reporters were developing all of a sudden was becoming a

Nathan's POVMy phone rang out from the bedroom. I was in the bathroom brushing my teeth so I ignored it but when it continued to ring consistently without stop, I finally grabbed a towel and went to see who the caller was. It was Max, my investigator, he must have some information to be calling at this hour so I answered the phone, trying to speak through the toothpaste in my mouth "Hello Max, what's up? You're calling at a weird time.""Good morning Sir, I've got something for you about the case," he said, jumping right into business. "Tell me. What is it?" I asked walking to the bathroom and spitting out the toothpaste in my mouth so I could talk properly"So I've been doing as you instructed and looking into Star Struck's Elliot and Zia and it has been nothing short of interesting if I do say so myself" he sighed before he continued " It seems like the both of them are in deep shit both together and individually and they both also have plans on how to solve their problems which
Last Updated : 2024-06-02Rayne's Revenge 72 - the news
I was barely surprised when Nathan told me about the information that his investigator had found out about Nathan because I did not make the mistake of believing him since he approached me at the mall which I was just learning that he had preplanned and wasn't by accident like I had believed."Whatever they're planning would not work" I said with so much conviction and Nathan nodded"Of course, we just have to be ahead of their game, that's all and that is why I want you to keep pretending that you think he is on our side" I shook my head at his suggestion. Yes, I knew that doing exactly that could produce results but they were bound to be slow results and I didn't think I had time to go around pretending because I didn't want to do and secondly my pregnancy was going to make it even harder with my mood swings and all."I'm pregnant" I broke the news to him without thinking and I watched his face for his reaction. He was shocked just as I expected him to be, both at the news and how

Elliot's POVMy plan was progressing and I believed that very soon I would gain Rayne's trust fully.My plan was simple, get her to trust that I was on her side and then her everything possible I can get from her and maybe in a few years time, the perfect opportunity to overthrow her and her husband would arise. It was simple but it was going to take time because it was like all those things that you just couldn't rush because rushing them would not give you the best results and I wanted nothing but the absolute best result from this only if Zia would see my vision.I was driving down to the restaurant Rayne and I usually met up for me to tell her the new development about Zia's plans and I always told her only some parts and of the truth because in as much as I wanted to get rid of Zia, she was still the only one I could trust to a fault because I knew that sbe actually did love me and it was easy to manipulate her and get her to do things that I wanted her to do. I basically had her
Last Updated : 2024-06-04Rayne's Revenge 74. The hard way
Elliot's POVI watched her take a final sip of her drink, then make her way to stand up from her chair. I was too embarrassed to speak."Your plan was not as excellent as you thought it was, so I would suggest that you go back to the drawing board and draft out a new and more sensible plan," she was taking it too far now, and I was slowly getting physically angry."How did you find out all these?" I asked, wondering how she got to know about all my plans to a tee. Was there someone that was giving her information about me that was close to me? Because all she knew was things that only I and Zia were supposed to know about. Or was she spying on us now? I had a lot of questions, and I had to find some answers at least."How I found out should be the least of your concern. What you should be worried about is how you're going to be able to come up with a genius plan other than the rubbish you thought was good. And until then, I believe we have nothing to talk about," she picked up her han

Rayne's Revenge 165. Bring Her Down
Nathan's POVMy heart raced wildly as I ran up the stairs with Jack and Alex behind me. We reached the rooftop, and my heart sank as my worst fears were confirmed. A lady lay unconscious on the floor and I walked slowly to the body scared it was Rayne but it was Pamela. I felt bad but hoped she was still alive. I looked up to see a masked figure dressed in a black suit pointing a gun at someone. My heart skipped a beat when I saw Rayne shivering with fear at the gun pointed at her. “Hey, let her go!” I shouted, finally getting the attention of the masked person. The figure looked at me and back at Rayne and slowly removed its mask revealing a long hair flying with the wind. It was Zia. She had a wicked grin and spoke with a sinister tone. “Oh, my darling. You're just in time to witness the end of…this bitch.”I walked cautiously to her so as not to make her shoot. “How did you get in here?” I asked.Zia chuckled and answered calmly. “You're not the only one with spies, Nathan. I've
Rayne's Revenge 164. Second Strike
Rayne's POVI pulled up to Rayne's house, my second home. Nathan and I were getting off on the good side. He was never that bad if I was being honest. I was just jealous. It was now a habit to spend the weekend with my biological family. Many times Dad had asked me to come stay with them but I couldn't abandon my adoptive parents and he understood.I planned on taking Rayne on a sibling date. I was going to live up to my big brother's expectations since we both missed growing up in each other's lives. Her kids were my kids and I couldn't have enough of them. I had a little chat with our father while Rayne dressed upstairs in her room. When she came down dressed in a lovely casual top and jeans with a baseball cap, I cheered because we had unknowingly worn the same thing.Janet crawled up to me, and she lifted her body making an attempt to stand but her feet wobbled and she fell but I caught her in time. She giggled and raised her hands up for me to carry her. Nathan came by and after
Rayne's Revenge 163. Out of Bondage
Zia’s POVI didn't say much and let Lucinda do her stuff. She presented the paperwork from the court to the head officer and I was free to go. Nothing felt better than leaving the mental hospital. It was a breath of fresh air. I had all sorts of emotions come to me. It was a mix of relief, anxiety, and uncertainty. Lucinda let me into her car and flashed me a sly smile. “Get in,” she said with an up tone. “We can catch on what we have missed on the way. I want to know everything.” I scoffed and entered the vehicle. “You wish, old witch as if I would ever tell her anything. Like I would ever tell you anything. You deserve nothing but total hatred from me,” I thought, faking a smile at her. She drove as I sat in the car and the image of the mental hospital gates getting distant made me want to fly to the moon. I didn't trust her so I let the questions fly around to be sure. “How did you know I was locked up in an asylum?” I asked, my eyes fixed on her body movements to detect if sh
Rayne's Revenge 162. Deal With The Devil
Zia’s POVMy body grew numb as I lay in the cold room. My mind became foggy as I Lost my sense of time. I hoped Sarah was able to make it far away. She could always find a way to help me but how she would go about it bothered me. My teeth chattered uncontrollably and I couldn't feel my fingers or toes. White smokey gas came out of my nose and mouth anytime I breathed out in my vain effort to warm myself. I clutched down to the side of the room, with my hands folded across my knee.I was about to give up and pray for death so I could end it all, but the door creaked open and a worker stepped in. I raised my head and he looked at me with disgust. There was no hint of flinch of pity in his eyes. “Well, well, well. Look at what we have here,” he said, mocking my situation. “If it isn't the little troublemaker? How do you feel? Do you want to escape or perhaps you want to create another show?”I shivered and tried to maintain eye contact. Every time I tried to speak, my mouth felt dry and
Rayne's Revenge 161. Escape Plan
Zia’s POVSarah and I exchanged looks and began laughing. When we were tired of laughing, we started working. I began brushing the dust and dirt away while Sarah mopped the room. We worked for nearly two hours and the room was almost completely clean. I wiped the sweat on my forehead with the back of my hand. We rested a bit as we finished the work. Sarah lay beside me panting. I whispered to her. “What do you say about getting the hell out of here?”“You don't mean..?” Sarah whispered back, her gaze still fixed on the ceiling. “Yeah, leave her for good,” I answered. “How are we supposed to do that? The hospital thinks we are crazy and it would take a long time to convince them that we are sane enough to be discharged, we came here because of a crime,” Sarah replied. “I wasn't talking about convincing anymore. And for all I know, I am pretty sure they can tell we aren't crazy. We have to escape,” I said confidently.Sarah shivered and sat up immediately to think. “That would be
Rayne's Revenge 160. Madness In The Asylum
Zia’s POVI stood from my seat and approached her slowly with caution. The ranting and noisy chatter from the other patients didn't stop me. I got to her table and carefully sat on the opposite seat so as not to aggravate her in case I was wrong. “Hi,” I said, smiling. I looked around to make sure none of the nurses, doctors or any officials were watching. “I'm Zia,” I said, giving her my hand for a polite handshake. She looked at me with a hint of curiosity then at my free hand and she slowly let out her hand and shook mine. “Hey, I'm Sarah and I am not crazy.” She said calmly but in a happy voice. “Glad to see someone else has their head right. I was worried you would…” I said, but was unable to finish the words, afraid it would come off as offensive to her. “Koo Koo. Nuts missing and screws flying. Nah, I'm fine. I just act along sometimes so I get to be left alone and not poked with annoying needles all the time,” she explained. She was a chatty one and I liked that. I needed
Rayne's Revenge 159. Tough Days
Zia’s POVThe prison room was cold as I was alone in my room. I glanced at the toilet from my small bed. The bed was only large enough to carry only me. I felt devastated, angry at Rayne but pity for myself. How did I move from the queen of the business world to this? And Elliot? That bastard had betrayed me. I had betrayed him first but it still didn't give him the right to leave me like this.I had spent a month in this disgusting cell, the prison room was neat and I was lucky for someone to pay for me to stay alone after a week of torture and bruising from the other prison mates. I had begged the warden for a phone call to call my Dad, Rayne's father but he didn't respond to any of my calls. Maybe, it was Dad but I was moved to the upper-class prison cells where I could stay alone and not have to worry about fighting for where to sleep with five roommates for the night or being woken up with kicks. The inmates were cruel and I was subjected to slavery. I began to feel how my maid
Rayne's Revenge 158. Make Up
Make UpRayne's POV“Hello, sister,” Alex spoke softly as our eyes locked onto each other. “Excuse me? What did you just call me?” I asked puzzled. Did he just call me his sister? What was going on here? At that moment, the world stood still. Alex's words hung in the air as I stood frozen.“Sister. You're my sister.” Alex spoke softly. I stepped backward looking him up and down as if he was drunk. “Alex, I think you have the wrong person. Did you hear your head?” I asked with worry etched on my face. Alex walked forward, his hands outstretched to me trying to pacify me. “Rayne, I know this might come off somewhat crazy but I'm your brother. Your twin brother.”“Yo…your twin? What the heck? How's this even possible? I…I should have known. Dad should have known,” I stuttered.Alex hesitated then moved slowly to me unsure of how to proceed. “I…I just found out. It's been a few days. Nathan told me. He brought the test and..”“Nathan told you. Test results?” I asked startled. I eyed h
Rayne's Revenge 157. She Can't Keep Still
Rayne's POV“Nathan, Zia's out of prison. She got an appeal and somehow proved her insanity," I complained.“I know. I found out this morning. But that doesn't seem to be the only thing on your mind. What is it?” Nathan said, pulling back as his eyes locked onto mine. I took a deep breath and let it out. “I got a text just after I saw the news. It said the first strike. It was an unknown number and it called me but I was too frightened to pick up. First, Zia gets out and I know she's not smart to do this plus she is at the hospital.” “You think it's Lucinda?” Nathan asked calmly. “I don't know who to blame right now. Have you checked the CCTV footage?” I asked, hoping to find some answers. Nathan answered just immediately as if he was expecting me to ask the questions. “My men are working on it now.” Jack walked in at that moment. “We could find any suspicious activity or persons on the camera. The main circuit seemed to have been tampered with. I am guessing the footage was dele
