Only a pawn

    Chapter 66: You are only a pawn.

    In another city, Trixson slumped into a chair which had her name on the back. She blew out a sigh of exhaustion, her body weak like a pressed marshmallow.

    "Trix, have some water," the muscular Boris handed over a Fiji bottled water. He had a complex look on his face which hid the sympathy he held for his beloved at the moment.

    Receiving the water, Trix straightened out her arms and twisted her neck in a stretch. She smiled at him, gulping almost one quarter of the bottle's contents. It felt useless because she wanted vodka in its place.

    However, her good girl reputation wouldn't allow her to drink alcohol in the presence of Boris or anyone at all. She couldn't help but imagine the cool bottle of Rosé she had hidden un

For the first time, the ugly head of Trixson reared out of its golden cage in unfiltered rage. She wore a black, cross-back maxi dress that exposed her soft, fair skin in all its tenderness. Trixson's hair was styled in a bun, with curling strands falling on each side of her face. The contortion of her face made her look like a villain. Sitting across from Trixson in the half-bakery, half-restaurant, Director Lee wore a somber expression. His face showed concern and a hint of guilt as he delivered the news that had provoked Trixson's outburst. He wore a black Henley that clung loosely to his frame, emphasizing his tire

    Chapter 68: Another day At this moment, Aiden came in. He took a double take on April, panic flashed in her eyes when their gaze met. She quickly dropped the jacket on the couch and stood up. Her cerulean blue-colored phoenix eyes darted to meet his grey-colored ones. "Hi, brother," she waved at him, smiling brightly. Even though she acted like he hadn't caught her doing something inappropriate by sniffing his jacket, she played it cool. Toying with her fingers behind her back, a behavior he had told her many times made her look cute. "What were you doing?" he inquired, skepticism evident in his tone. "Sniffing your jacket," she said blandly. April's gaze darted to the jacket once more. "What is the name of the perfume?" Her question was received with a raised brow. She understood it was not like her to act in such a way. She had to think fast. "Back when I was in school, I was dating this guy who was a cognoscenti. We played this game where he would sn

    Chapter 69: I couldn't resist either Her eyes widened at the scene. There was Aiden, wearing a black designer suit and playing soft tunes on the guitar. There was something about the air that surrounded him that created butterflies in her belly. When he opened his mouth, she felt weak in the knees. She gasped, "Aiden." However, Aiden struck the chords again, singing 'Breathless' by Shayne Ward. "If our love was a fairy tale, I would charge in and rescue you. On a yacht, baby, we would sail To an island where we'd say I do." Hearing him sing, Elsie could not hold back the laughter. She rushed to him, tossing her arms around his neck in an embrace. She laughed, throwing her head back. "You are a terrible singer!" It was his turn to laugh, a deep and hearty sound that filled the room. He kissed her cheek lovingly, reciprocating the embrace. "I know." "Where did you get the idea to serenade me?" Baffled, confusion flickered across his handso

    Chapter 70: I'm planning to stay there Before Elsie could answer that question, Aiden's phone rang. It did not take a soothsayer for Elsie to guess who was on the other line. It was April calling. He had saved her contact as 'Silly Girl'. There was no good reason Elsie could think of that would make April call except to ruin their evening. She glanced back at Aiden, who was about to pick up his phone, but she beat him to it. She calmly answered and placed it on her ear. "Brother, I need you," the familiar voice cried in between sobs. But Elsie knew better than to fall for April's cheap tricks. "What happened?" "Elsie, how dare you answer my brother's calls," April raged in anger on the other line. If she were present with Elsie, she would have clawed out her eyes. However, Elsie kept calm. She needed Aiden here and wouldn't allow him to leave, especially when it had something to do with his two-faced sister. Hence, she replied softly, "Why, yes. I am hi

The good news was that Aiden had accepted her decision to pursue a career in entertainment, acknowledging her talent after seeing her act. As promised, she had sent the video to other professionals in the field and wanted to share their reviews with her. He initially suggested discussing it over the phone, but Elsie insisted on a face-to-face meeting, fearing that he might sugarcoat things over the phone. When she arrived, Mr. Johnson was already waiting, sitting by the window and watching the busy street with amazement. "Mr. Johnson," Elsie called out to him as she slid into her seat. He jerked his head, a smile curling on his lips. Mr. Johnson was wearing a grey coat with a colorful feather peering out of its chest pocket. He had grown stubble since their last meeting.

I didn't even remember how she looks like without the help of photographs," Elsie said, her voice filled with curiosity as she turned to Aiden. "What do you think it might mean, Aiden?" It was the next morning, and Elsie told Aiden about the nightmare she had. She sat on the bed, while he stood by her side. She was trembling as she narrated the nightmare to him, which made him worried. Crossing the room, he filled a glass with water and made Elsie drink while he held the glass. When she was done, he placed the half-filled glass on the table. Running a hand through his hair, Aiden pondered for a moment before responding, "I have no idea, Elsie." "Could it be that my memories are coming back? You remember when I spoke in Italian back at the mall? I had asked Aunt Dahlia, and she said I was half Italian. That explains it." "Calm down, Elsie," Aiden said soothingly, rubbin

    Author's AppreciationI started writing this earlier without this novel being finished, because I wanted to say something from the heart and not rushed. That doesn't mean my other appreciations are not from the heart. They are!You see, I have never been good with words and not always known how to respond to messages, emails, and so on. I am a freaking walking disaster, a one-woman circus clown kind of show, but I say this with much confidence: when I read a book and I laugh hard, feel hate, dislike, and cringe at moments which genuinely become a part of me, even if just for a time - it fills in my heart. I am overwhelmed by such talent to aid me grapple with my own emotions and go over every scene. Feeling satisfied and still wishing for more.

Trixson had been sentenced with a double life sentence for the murders she had been involved in. Boris had been given ten years for being an accomplice in Henry's homicide. Trixson had Boris sneak into the rehab disguised as an operating nurse and provided him the drugs Henry overdosed on. After this, Boris' conscience could not bear the burden of the secret. Hence, he came to me. He had to, after I provided him photos of Trixson and Director Lee's affair. All that helped take off the rose-colored glasses he wore aroun

He was finally free. As he looked around, his eyes scanned the crowded streets, searching for a familiar face. And then, he saw her. Elsie stood out from the crowd, her flaming red hair shining like a flame. She wore a bright smile, and her eyes sparkled with tears, as she waved at him. Aiden's heart skipped a beat as he made his way towards her. Elsie still looked as beautiful as she did the first time he saw her at the Scott mansion. She wore a knee-length red dress that clung to her skin, exposing her heavy curves. As a result of the pregnancy, Elsie had gained weight, and her chest and ass had grown bigger too. She was

The judge announced, "After careful consideration of the evidence and the severity of the crime, I hereby sentence you to 7 years in prison for withholding information and obstruction of justice in relation to the double homicide case." My eyes had widened for a brief moment, but I accepted the sentence with a nod. I knew I deserved this punishment for my actions.

    Chapter 135; Promise me Two months later. On the day of Aiden's trial, after he had refused to file for bail, Elsie kept Eldon entertained by playing Legos when Aunt Rina walked in. The little lad ran to hug Rina, and she kissed him on the cheek. "Aunt Rina, where have you been? I've missed you," he exclaimed, his dimples creeping up as he smiled. Leaning in, she explained in a sweet voice, "I was busy, boy. But I'm back now..." Elsie, leaning against the counter in the kitchen, found their encounter very cute. She sometimes envied Eldon's relationship with Rina. A huge grin curled up on Eldon's lips, and he raised his arms, shouting out of ecstasy, "Yay, we'll all play together!" "We will," Rina confirmed, nodding her head. She reached out to touch the boy's cheek and pinched it fondly. "You should go to your room and wait for me there while I talk to your mom." The kid threw his arms up in happiness, spread them wide like wings, and ran out, making plane
