Amy took extra time with her appearance today, she had on a gray cashmere sweater paired with black wide leg pants. Today they were going to pay a visit to Reynolds grandmother who couldn't attend the wedding because of her health.

Apparently the proper thing was for the couple to pay her a customary visit together. She chuckled at the word couple, it sounded surreal to her. She looked at her makeup kit, thought for a while and decided to settle with less makeup for today, although heavy under her eyes to hide her freckles.

Reynolds had left the house early after his morning jog, he had something urgent to sort out in the office. She had canceled all her appointments for the day and told Jane to take care of any other important thing.

Apparently Reynolds thought she needed the whole day to get ready to visit his grandma. Surely she wasn't that bad that she needed to take extra time to ponder on which clothing to wear.

She stood in front of her shoe rack and debated on which heels t

    Reynolds parked in the garage, Amy stepped down and took a good look at the house, flowers were everywhere. The house had the look of a 90s Victorian house. "Welcome, welcome" a voice said. Amy turned and saw a woman coming from around the back of the house, wearing rain boots. "Grams," Reynolds said and walked into her outstretched arms. Amy stood there looking at them, She did not expect to see such a vibrant woman. "Wonderful, wonderful girl, come here" Reynolds grandma said and pulled her into a hug."You are so pretty," she whispered into Amy's ear.. She released Amy and spun her 360 to get a good look at her. "You got yourself a good one here" she said and winked at Reynolds. "Let's go in" she said and led them into the house, still clutching onto Amy's hand. They sat in the living room, "We got these for you ma" Amy said and handed the bag of gifts to her. "Just call me grandma" she said and smiled at her. "I hope my grandson has not riled you up, forgive him if he has, it's

    Reynolds led Amy back into the house with his grandma following behind. "Let me get the first aid box" his grandma said and disappeared. Reynolds held Amy's hand, using his finger to apply pressure on the bleeding site. "Your grandma isn't here, you can let go of me now, don't worry about the couples show". Amy said and tried to wrench her hand free from his grasp but he wouldn't budge. "Keep still," Reynolds muttered through his teeth. Amy looked at him and seeing the seriousness in his eyes, she decided to keep still.His grandma hurried back with an old, white first aid box, the red cross already fading off it. She opened it and took out an antiseptic, cleaned the wound with it and covered it with a band aid. "There you go, nice and clean". She said and took the box back. Amy put the finger in front of her face and looked at it like an offending object for a while. "They didn't teach you in school to avoid rose bushes?" Reynolds asked her, staring her squarely in the face. "Or di

    Blood drained from Reynolds face as he heard what the other person was saying hurriedly. His wife was involved in a car accident and she had been rushed to the hospital. "What's the name of the hospital?" Reynolds asked still trying to maintain his composure. "Elena Grey's memorial hospital" the caller said. Reynolds hung up the call and rang Luke, "get my car ready now" he barked into the phone and hung up the line before Luke could say anything.He picked some documents and walked out of the office, into his car and barked the name of the hospital at his driver. "Can't you go any faster than this?" He screamed at his driver and the man increased the speed of the car. In no time, they arrived at the hospital and he jumped out of the car before it could even stop and ran into the hospital. "Amy Bennet" he said to the receptionist who was staring at him as if she had seen a ghost. "Are you dumb? I said, "Where is Amy Bennet?" He shouted at her."Sorry...erm... she is in the emergency

    Amy groaned and her eyes fluttered open, the room was dark, which was good cause her eyes wouldn't take the light. She turned her head towards the window, it was night already, how long had she been out for?. She stopped when she heard someone breathing softly near her, she looked down and saw a head she recognized as Reynolds' sitting beside her bed with his face down on the bed. He must have fallen asleep watching her. Amy felt her heart flutter at that realization. She did not want to disturb him but at the same time she really needed to pee.Her right leg felt really heavy and painful, she stretched her hand to touch it and felt something hard, the doctors had put a cast on her leg, she must have fractured it she figured. She stirred a bit and Reynolds raised his head quickly. "You're awake". "Yeah and I need to pee really bad". Reynolds helped her down from the bed and carried her to the bathroom. "You know I can walk right". Amy protested. "The doctor says you'll need to kee

    Reynolds and Luke drove to the warehouse where Evan was kept hostage. The guards at the door let them in, Evan was tied to a chair, his hands and legs were tied together and his mouth was gagged. Reynolds walked over to him and yanked the mouth gag off, "Hello Evan, I'm very sure you must know who I am and what I do for a living. That should tell you that I'm probably a very busy man, so we can just move this along very quickly so I can get back to work". "I have nothing to say to you". Evan spat out.Reynolds laughed a low rumbling laughter, the laughter that Luke called the laughter of death. He turned around and snapped his fingers at one of the guards, "bring her in". The guard left the room and came back with a woman, her hands tied and her mouth gagged too. Evan's head whipped up and his mouth fell open when he recognized the face as that of his wife. Reynolds pulled out her mouth gag and whispered to her, "talk to your husband"."Evan, honey please tell them whatever they wa

    After getting the information he needed from Evan, Reynolds headed back to the office for an urgent meeting. He sat there watching one of the junior associates of his company give a presentation on how they could merge both his father's company and his company without the merger affecting the staff and finances of both companies. The guy was doing a good job but he hadn't quite explained how the balancing was going to work on both sectors, a merger like this could cost both companies millions of dollars. Reynolds was about to interrupt and ask a question when his phone vibrated in his pocket.He did not usually pick calls or answer messages during crucial meetings, focus was one of the things his father had driven into him but needed an update from Luke and so he pulled out his phone and took a long look at it. His face unconsciously broadened into a smile as he read the message to himself. It was from an unknown number but he was pretty sure it was Amy, apart from the fact that it

    The room went quiet when Reynolds walked into it. His eyes still on the last person he wanted to see, he closed the door behind him and walked closer to Amy and stretched out the bags to her. He looked at the supposed best friend to Amy and his jaw tightened, he was sitting on the edge of her bed, holding her hand and making her smile. Amy saw the change on his face and decided to lighten up the room, "darling you're back, you recognize my friend David right?". "Unfortunately I do". Reynolds replied, still standing at the edge of the room.David cleared his throat, obviously uncomfortable about the outright stare Reynolds was giving him. "Mr Bennet, thank you for finally letting me see her". "Direct that appreciation to Amy, I don't deserve it". Amy looked from one man to the other, noticing the tension sparking between them she decided to change the topic. "Oh how wonderful, you got me strawberry flavored ice cream, thank you so much darling". Reynolds looked at her in confusion,

    Amy was sitting in the garden, vaguely concentrating on the book in her laps. Since she returned from the hospital 3 weeks ago, Reynolds had refused to let her go anywhere outside of the house or do anything for that matter. She was like a prisoner, at least she was a pretty one. Reynolds had refused to touch her even by mistake since the night in the hospital, maybe he felt he would break her into two if he so much as pointed a finger in her direction. He was terribly unbearable these days, he had made one of the maids sleep in her room at night, his reason was in case she needed to use the washroom or if she needed something else.Like she had a servants bell already installed by her bedside already, she was making use of her crutches most times, except now that she rarely felt pain in the leg but of course that was not enough for Mr high and mighty. He just had to make the maid practically move in with her agàinst her wishes. She remembered the first night he suggested it, she

    "How could you tell that detective that I had issues with Amy?" Sarah screamed at Jessie. Without waiting for her to reply she launched again, "and you eavesdropped on my phone call? Jess you eavesdropped on my phone call with my husband and went ahead to snitch on me to make yourself look good". "I did not snitch on you Sarah at least it was not my intention to, he was just so persistent and made me say it" Jessie said slowly. "How could you throw her under the bus to save yourself Jessie?" Ava asked and shook her head in disappointment.The first day of the interrogations had ended with only Jessie and Sarah being the first two to be interrogated. Ava had asked everyone to meet after the whole day to get to know what happened and as a form of emotional support but things were gradually going South between Sarah and Jessie. "I…I didn't know what to say Sarah. It was like he was seeing into my soul and I couldn't shake the feeling off that was why I told him the first thing that

  • TRAPPED IN THE BILLIONAIRE’s BARGAIN   SARAH

    Detective Jones picked up the next file in front of him; the name on it read Sarah O’Brien, she was Luke's wife. Luke who happened to be the personal assistant to Reynolds Bennet and his close friend too. In a way she was the closest to the Bennet’s and would probably have more information than any other person could. He flipped open his note to where Sarah’s name was scribbled and peered at it, so far he had not been able to deduce any falling out or argument between her and Amy but that was the scary thing. The hidden resentments were usually the worst because when it manifested it usually was fatal. A knock sounded on the iron door and he pushed his chair back and rose to his feet, it was time for the next person.“Sarah O’Brien right?” detective Jones asked and stretched his hand to the woman at the door. “Yes,” Sarah said and took his hand. “Please step into the room” he said and moved to one side, giving her just enough space to go in. He watched her walk into the room and

    Detective Jones stood behind the door of the compact sized room used as storage for the numerous files which harbored the cases that had been brought to the station since it had been erected. Cases some of which had been investigated properly while some cast away and long forgotten, their files now accumulated with dust and fraying at the edges. They filled the room at one end and spilled into the other end at one side. Detective Jones had spent half of the night moving and shoving things to one side of the room, leaving the other side of the room bare but which now had a small table with two chairs one on each side of the table sitting in it. He planned to convert the room into a makeshift interrogation room just like the one they had and used in the headquarters when they brought in people for questioning.Detective Jones yanked the cranky door open and strolled into the room, he walked towards the only window in the room and pushed it open, letting the slant ray of sunlight fil

    Amy weaved through the throng of people as she made her way to the table where her friends sat. Sarah stood up and hugged her as well as she could, given that the size of her stomach had increased by 3 since the last time they had met, which was at her baby shower. “How are you doing Amy? You refused to see any of us for almost a week since that incident” Sarah said and led her to a seat. “Are you finally out from your hiding?” Carie said and placed her hand on Amy’s lap. “I wasn’t in hiding, I just needed to get some things straight” Amy said to them.“We were all so worried about you Amy, we called your office but your secretary said you were not yet on seat. You refused to take our calls or respond to our messages, I hope you don’t blame us for what happened that day” Ava said. “I am fine guys but there is a problem, I am not allowed to speak or talk to anyone who was present during the baby shower because there is going to be an investigation because I was obviously framed fo

    Reynolds sat in the waiting area waiting for the police superintendent. It had been 3 days since Amy's arrest and their last meeting and he couldn’t let it pile up any longer, he came in early in the morning because he needed to do something about the whole situation. He had contacted Luke the night before and they discussed strategies and plans to go about Amy’s case and how to prove that she was not guilty and they had come up with plans which he was here to try out.The door to the office opened and the man stepped out and gestured for Reynolds to come in. “Mr. Bennet please come in” he said and Reynolds followed him into the office he had been in for like the 5th time in one week. “I want to know what types of investigations are being carried out on my wife’s case,” Reynolds asked. “Well Mr. Bennet, we have not yet commenced investigations on your wife’s case” the superintendent said and rapped his fingers on the table.Reynolds was having a feeling that at this point this cou

    “Mr. Bennet I’m sorry but that will be quite difficult to achieve at this moment. We don’t take it likely with drug offenders and the case has been transferred to the DEA’s table” the police superintendent said to a grim faced Reynolds who was sitting in front of him. “How is that even possible? You arrested my wife last night and in the space of less than 24 hours the case has been transferred to the DEA’s table? I know the amount of paperwork involved in transferring cases Mr. Superintendent so do not try to fuck with me. I want my wife’s case transferred to the headquarters” Reynolds said again. “Mr. Bennet I’m afraid that cannot happen, this is my jurisdiction and it is a sensitive case which…” “Don’t tell me it’s a sensitive case Goddammit” Reynolds shouted and banged the table in front of him with a clenched fist. “I want my wife out of that cell this minute and for her case to be transferred to the headquarters or else I will subtly fuck you up in ways you cannot imagine
