CHAPTER 45NICOLE *****FLASHBACK******“Chris called me earlier today.” Aunty Alice spoke, pouring me a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice.I had paid her a visit in the new apartment Chris got her. A couple of days after he told me he wanted me to bear him children and potentially, become life partners.I still did not have my head wrapped around the whole proposal as it was too sudden and I didn’t know if he truly meant it or it was just a trick for me to give him a child and after the contract expires, he may change his mind and dump me.“He did? What did he call you for?” I asked her.She didn’t answer me immediately. She went inside the kitchen and brought some biscuits and peanuts. She put them on the coffee table in front of me and she sat down beside me.“Bella, I think you should accept his proposal. He has told me everything surrounding your relationship. I’m no expert in love. I’ve never even been married but one thing I know for certain is, if a man as powerful and a

CHAPTER 46CHRIS“You just need to tell us who’s the source and we’ll let you go.” Detective Colin queried Drew, the supposed Herald who sent the boys to burn my warehouse down.After two of them were found out, he went into hiding but like a pig destined for the slaughter, he couldn’t escape his capture.“I’m not saying a damn thing. Charge me to court already.” He barked at Detective Colin “Are you so eager to spend the rest of your life behind bars?” Colin questioned again.Drew started laughing in an hysterical manner causing the detective to lose it and punch him in the stomach.“My lawyer will hear that you hit me.” Drew said before spitting on Detective Colin’s shoes.Colin was ready to have another go at him but his colleague restrained him inside and took him outside to cool off.“I know you’re not scared of prison, they could even save you in court but what about death? A slow and painful one.” I asked Drew when it was just the two of us left alone.“You can’t do shit to me

CHAPTER 47NICOLE“What is it you have to tell me? Are you pregnant?” Chris asked. His face lit up a little.I just laughed at his question. Weren’t we just at the doctor’s a couple of days ago?“So you would lose your cool if I told you I was pregnant?”“Woman, I’d lose everything.” He replied.“I’m not. Not yet. But what I want to tell you is equally important. Aunt Alice would be in a better position to explain, let me call her, she’s in my office.”In a few minutes, Aunt Alice joined us and Chris asked for us to go sit in the lounge area.I sat down beside Chris and Aunty Alice sat down opposite us.“Chris, before Bella was born, my brother had another child. A girl. But because we were young then. He gave her up for adoption.” Aunt Alice said and paused to gauge Chris’s reaction.“Years after Bella was born, we tried to find her but we couldn’t until recently, I found out who she was.”“That’s great news, where is he now? Do you need my help reaching her or something?” Chris aske

CHAPTER 48CHRISWhen Bella told me she was Nicole’s sister, I didn’t know how to feel. I just wanted to comfort her that instant. I can’t imagine the level of grief she would be going through.Finding out you have a relative only when they are dead and a sister for that matter.I have to admit that it is a little weird how somehow, something always involves her and the Reyes’s. The fact that she was once a mistress to her sister’s husband irked me but I’ve agreed to let the past be the past. I love who she is now and even more who she will become in future.My duty is to stand by her and guide her in any way that I can. She’s a rare one and I plan to cherish her. Getting a wife like her and my inheritance fund as well is the win of the century.It makes sense now why she had such a flare for business , the same blood flows in her veins that flowed in Nicole’s.When we got home that night, the mood was a little too heavy. I sent all my maids and the chef to their quarters. We had alr

CHAPTER 49CHRISAre you sure about this Bella?” I asked. “Yes, I am. I want your cock in my ass.” “You want me to fuck you in the ass?” I said. “Yes, please fuck me in my ass,” she replied. “You sure? I never did that before.”“Me neither but I want to feel you in my ass. It’s one of my fantasies.” She reached inside the bedside drawer and grabbed the jar of lube. She slathered it all over my dick from the balls to the tip. Then she slipped her finger into herself a couple of times for good measure. She grabbed a pillow and placed it beneath her, then spread her legs high and wide, and said, “Give it to me.”I grabbed my penis and placed the tip up against her rim. I was excited and swollen, big and hard. I started to push it in. Our eyes were locked. “Go easy on me, big boy,” she said.I paused. “Tell me what you want me to do.”“You know what to do.”“I don’t want to hurt you.”“You won’t hurt me. Let’s just take our time. I want to feel every inch of you.”I could feel her g

CHAPTER 50NICOLEAs we drove through the first gate of the prison facility where Amelia was being held, I felt a sudden shiver run down my spine.After we parked our cars, Chris asked our bodyguards to stay put, as just the two of us were going in to see Amelia.Chris had earlier informed the prison staff of our visit and that he would like to talk to Amelia in a private room.Once we got there, we were assigned a guard to lead us around.As we walked through the inner metal gates, the clang of their closure echoed in my ears. Tall concrete walls loomed above, casting shadows that seemed to swallow the sunlight. The guard led us down a narrow pathway lined with barbed wire, the atmosphere was tense, with an undercurrent of caution.Inside, the prison was a world of its own. The corridors were regimented, the sound of footsteps echoing off the cold, hard surfaces. The occasional clatter of voices drifted from cells, a stark reminder of the human lives contained within these walls.We

CHAPTER 51CHRISWho the hell is this woman that I married? Beautiful, smart, great business acumen and now a makeshift cop?She just keeps giving me reasons to love her more every single day. I never would have been able to crack Amelia’s wall like she just did. I’m far too temperamental and impatient for such things.“She has something to say baby, let’s listen to her.” Bella said and sat back down. I also grabbed my seat and sat down, waiting for Amelia to spill.“If I do this, promise me you’ll keep to your word.” Amelia said.“I will.” Bella replied.“Not you, you can’t do shit for me.” Amelia replied.I squinted my eyes at her. ‘Wrong move Amelia, that’s the only person that can make me keep my word.’ I said in my head.“I will. Now quit stalling, some of us have a life outside these walls.” I answered her bluntly.“Mr Perry.” Amelia called, and the guard standing by the door came to her, she whispered something to him and the guard left.A few minutes later, the guard returne

CHAPTER 52NICOLEThe news of Amelia’s death brought a wave of shock over me. If her brother was really doing this for her, then why kill her? Something is aloof here.“Chris, what do we do?” I asked him as I handed him back his phone.“Nothing. We go home and think this through.” He replied.Later that night at dinner, I started to try and put some pieces of this puzzle together.“Could it be the guard? I mean he was there the whole time.” I asked Chris.“Could be. Or maybe she’s just such a bitch and offended someone in there. Would her own brother have her murdered?” Chris simply said and continued his meal.“No, I don’t think so.” I replied.We continued our meal in silence but my mind kept going over the possibility that our visit may have led to her death.Why else did the person supposed to collect the briefcase not show up? Unless they knew we were into them. Besides me, Chris, the guard, Amelia, Ben and the head detective, no one else knew exactly what we there for. Someone m

CHAPTER 65NICOLE“Chris…..I,” George tried to speak as his mouth shook but Chris cut him off.He looked at George like a Tiger observing his prey. “I don’t want to hear it,” Chris took out a document and handed it over to George. “Here, I took the liberty of preparing the documents and you should be lucky that I am buying this from you at the actual price. My original plan was to leak the video and when your shares started dropping, I’d buy as many as I cared to but I’m doing this for your wife and my nephews.”I could tell George was more confused as to why Chris was buying his shares rather than why he had a video of him being intimate with Claire.George looked at me and I frowned. The man was a good man when we partnered. He helped my company but he let that witch dig her claws into him so deep that he even started stealing from the same company he was a majority shareholder in.I brought out the documents of the fake transactions he and Claire used to steal the money and handed

CHAPTER 64“Let me answer that,” A voice came from behind me and I was stunned when I saw Casper pointing a gun at us.How did he even get past all the guards we had outside?Chris’ eyes tightened and he clenched his fist, his eyes fixated on Casper but I could see the worry in them.Casper grabbed me from behind and I screamed. His arm went around my throat as he pointed the gun to my head and I could feel my heart race. My breath easily became labored and my body shook.“How did you get in here?” Chris bellowed, his bad legs meant he couldn’t move but I could feel he was trying.Ben’s eyes slowly darted between Casper and Chris but there was a mischievous look in his eyes that I couldn’t quite place until he spoke.“Oh, Relax Chris. Casper is only here to do what we should have done a long time ago,” He smirked and walked up to me.It turned out I was right all along. No wonder Casper got access to the house. Everything that happened yesterday and earlier was a farce. I wonder if Ch

CHAPTER 63NICOLEMy back was against the chest of the person who pulled me away from the door, but when the person spoke, I instantly recognized the voice. “Listen closely,” Ben whispered, releasing the pressure of his hands over my mouth.I could hear Charlotte’s saying, “I’m tired of this, I’m done.”“You’re tired when I say you are. You need to find a way to make things up with him. How else are we supposed to know what the heck is going on?” The other voice came, I recognized that voice, it was Casper’s. I recognize the voice from the other day at the spa.Ben looked disappointed as we shared a look, it turned out my suspicions were not exactly wrong. He was sharing everything with his girlfriend who was the mole that was in turn feeding Casper.I quick brought out my phone and texted my driver to come with the bodyguard. Ben had already informed the police.Then we started to hear Charlotte scream, we heard a loud bang and then complete silence rented the air.Next thing the d

CHAPTER 62NICOLEInside the executive conference room of the Strong Haven building, Chris gave a reassuring speech that was broadcast live from the building.Reassuring customers and investors alike, taking responsibility for the sudden downturn of events at the company, and promising a better tomorrow.In his own words to them, “You trusted me when my father gave me the reins of this great company. You put your faith in that young man all those years ago and I did not let you down. I only ask that you do the same now in such a time. As many of you may now know, our company suffered a data leak and the same people responsible for it also came after my life. It is said that in times of adversity, a man’s true friends will be revealed..”“I and this company are merely going through such a time, one that I know will be over soon. When this is all said and done, the ones who stood by us, our friends, will be revealed, and God helping us, we will make sure that they are duly rewarded. An

CHAPTER 61CHRISI couldn’t sleep all night. Everything Bella said made no sense and yet it explained so much.As I turned the possibilities over and over again in my mind, it began to make even more sense.Her behavior at the funeral, the altercation at the jewelry shop, her uneasiness at the award night, where Mason proposed to Claire, the iCloud name on her phone, and everything that happened afterward.Do I want to believe this? Can someone be reborn? I know I’ve heard and seen a lot of mysterious things but this one tops the chart.Bella had no reason to frame Mason and Claire for Nicole’s murder, so why would she cook up such a story? If the woman lying beside me was truly Nicole, everything she said made sense. Does this mean Nicole has been my wife all this time?No wonder she knew so much about my line of business, no wonder she could lead a team to secure a contract worth billions despite being a fresh graduate.Her story ticks so many boxes but it’s some supernatural shit

CHAPTER 60NICOLEWait a minute. How does Chris know I was doing something with Chester? Does that mean Chester didn’t keep to his word? But from the way Chris sounded, he didn’t know exactly what it was we were doing, so maybe he just had an inkling.I have to be honest with him, but how honest? Do I tell him everything? Do I tell him the real truth? Do I tell him that I am Nicole? Reborn in the body of a sister I only recently found out that I had? Would he believe me? What valid reason could I give? I have to really think about this. I have to find a smart way to do this. Not tonight.“Baby, it’s already late, remember the doctor said you need to get maximum rest. I’ll tell you everything in the morning.” I finally replied.I better have a good explanation when I wake up, that’s if he lets me off the hook tonight.“Bella, when Chester told me you had him on a job out of respect for me, I told him to keep it strictly between the two of you because I wanted to respect your choices a

CHAPTER 59NICOLEThe day finally came for my husband to go home. He could sit in a wheelchair now but would still be under constant watch. He started occasionally getting seizures recently but the doctor assured us it was nothing fatal.The board was still on him to name someone as the New CEO while he was recuperating. A new face for the company as the shares were still plummeting hard.The media wasn’t helping either with various speculations flying up and down the internet. Competitors were taking advantage of the turbulence and luring away customers.It was slowly becoming a very difficult situation for Chris to handle. Casper was still out there somewhere, probably smiling at everything happening and the mole was still unknown.“Thank you, doctor. I’ll take good care of him.” I said to the doctor as I wheeled Chris out of the hospital room.We planned to move very early in the morning to avoid the press and it worked. There was minimal presence outside.We got home and settled i

CHAPTER 58NICOLEWow, this is not going as I planned at all. I didn’t think Brenda would get suspicious and invite Claire.If anyone knew my sister, it definitely would be Claire, and considering our history since I took Bella’s body, this was going to be a crazy meeting.Brenda got up and briefly hugged Claire before the two took their seats.“Hi, Claire.” I greeted, forcing a smile.“Hey! Bella, do you know Brenda too? Small world. I heard about your husband. I’m so sorry.” Claire said in her usual cheerful manner.Typical Claire, cheerful for no reason with the heart of a beast.“I just met her yesterday, she says she’s Nicole’s sister,” Brenda replied to her before I could say anything.“Sister?” Claire asked, looking at me bewildered before she burst into uncontrollable laughter.There was no way in hell she was going to believe it but this is a good time to show Brenda what kind of a snake Claire is and to call her out.“C'mon Bella, be serious.
