William's POVI was livid. I couldn't believe that I had lost Elena to Mason.“What do we do now, Williams? It looks like you lost already. Why do you even want Elena? There are other girls much better than her.” Mabel asked as we walked towards the car.I couldn't even think properly anymore. Elena had played a reverse card on me and I wasn't going to let her so easily. I was going to make her life miserable and I knew just the best way to do it.“Get into the car, Mabel! I need to talk to someone real quick.” I said as I threw the keys at her. I walked hurriedly back into Elena's house then I rang the bell.Her mother's voice asked who it was. “It's Williams, Mrs Walker!”I could hear her footsteps as she walked towards the door. Opening it, she sighed. “Oh dear, my husband and I were just discussing about you. Come on in dear!” She said ushering me in.I walked into the house and sat down. I looked at Mr Walker, he didn't have fear in his eyes anymore for me.I turned to face Mrs W
Elena's POVMy heart thumped as he came closer to me. This man was doing a number on me. I pushed back the chair, then stood up. He looked at me puzzled. “I came here to get signed up for the training. We haven't done that yet.”He looked at me and smiled sheepishly. “Why did you push the chair with so much force? What did you think I was going to do to you?”“No, no it's nothing like that. I just felt we should uhm … just get me signed up already. I'm sure Vivian must be waiting for us to come back."“Alright dear, let's go get you signed.” He said taking my hands in his and I felt that spark again.Walking into the elevator, he retorted. “Elena, what did you think I was going to do back there? You acted impulsively like I was trying to kis–.”I put my finger on his lips and tried to shut him so he won't finish the sentence. He chuckled, bringing down my fingers from his lips. “I wasn't trying to kiss you, Elena. I just wanted to talk to you calmly. If I wanted to kiss you, I wouldn
Mason's POVWhat were this documents? How did they get to the media. Who did this? I took the phone from Derek, prying into it more.Elena edges over to my side, “Are these true? You really did all these, Mason?”I shook my head, “How can you actually believe that I'll unalive my own parents. Losing them has been hard on me and yet you think I'll do this? You have to believe me when I say I didn't.”She looked lost as she gazed at me. I could see the confusion in her eyes. “I don't want to believe this is true but then who could have released this to the press? This is such a huge blow to you. Can you think of anyone who knows about the death of your parents or if possible, anybody around you when they died?” She asked me, her voice low.“No Elena! My parents burial wasn't all that big because we were in a lot of debts.I built this all up myself. It's as though someone just want me gone at all cost. Like they want my business gone.”Derek walked around, he panicked as he stutted. He s
Elena's POV“Why are you crying?” Mason asked. I walked closer to him. Worry on my face. “Who's that, Mason?” I asked. I had a feeling it was Vivian. Oh no, she must have seen the article.Mason looked at me, mouthing Vivian. I didn't wait for him to finish as I hurriedly walked out of the room, heading to his office to get my bag. Vivian was still a young girl and news like this could influence her mental state badly.Getting into his office, I bumped into Rodney. “Hi Rodney. Was it you who picked Vivian up from school?” I asked impatiently as I put my phone back into my bag.He nodded. “Yes ma'am, I did pick her up from school. Is there any problem? It's her everyday routine. She doesn't come to the company except she feels like it. And you seem rushed. Are you heading somewhere?”“Yes Rodney, I'm heading home. I'm pretty sure you're avoiding that topic and that's why you're feigning ignorance. Vivian must have seen that article and she called Mason. She needs someone beside her an
Elena's POV“Vy? Why is there blood on your head? What did you do to yourself?” I asked as I released my hold on her.She sniffed. “I had an injury there earlier today. I fell because I was lost and I didn't watch where I was going. Don't panic. I promise it's nothing much. I'm really fine. I just need my brother to clear this mess before it gets any worse.”I looked at her. She was still too young to be going through all these. But I didn't know how to console her, so I just looked at her and smiled then pat her head.“Have you eaten? Rodney told me the chef said you've been crying since you got home. Why would you think your brother killed your parents? He's not a psychopath. He's got a heart too.” I asked looking at her with concern in my eyes. She avoided my eyes by bending her head.“I couldn't bring myself to eat as I lost appetite after reading that article. I'm afraid the articles might be true. My brother isn't all what you think he is, Elena. Apart from shutting himself out
Mason's POV“No, that's not what I meant. I was just telling how hectic school was for me today and how I just love being at home.” Vivian said, her voice shaky.“Are you sure that's what you both were discussing? You kept quiet when I entered unlike all other days. Are you sure you both weren't gossiping about me?” I asked as I walked to the dining table. “And why are you guys just eating dinner?”“Nothing. I didn't have appetite earlier and that's why I didn't eat. How did it go? Any luck with it?” Elena asked, getting up from the table.I nodded and walked towards her. “Why are you standing already? Sit down and finish your food. Don't mind me at all. I just came home regarding what you said before you left. There is progress though. We've managed to stop the main data where it seems to be coming from and Dominic is tracking the blogger.”“Don't you think you should involve the police? I feel they'll make the investigation more easier?” She asked, worry evident in her face.“I'm no
Mason's POV“Pardon me, I need to take this call immediately.” I said as I walked out of the sitting room into my study.“Hello Dominic, any good leads?” I asked.“Boss, there are a lot of leads to who could have posted the article but the problem is that they are not in the country at the moment.”“Then what are you waiting for? Get a helicopter and leave for whereever they are. Make sure you get one of those men and bring them back!” I ordered him, preparing to end the call.I put it back, “What did you say, I didn't get you!”“We found the main source boss. I was trying to say that those links abroad are not important since we have the main data link here.”I'll be there in twenty minutes. Send me whatever location it is and head out immediately. Once I'm done with what I'm doing here. I'll be there.”Boss hold on. We've got the exact person. It's a woman.”“Huh! What do you mean it's a woman? Give me her name immediately. What relationship does she have with me!”“It's Micheala bo
William's POVI paced about in my room. The articles had spread faster than usual. Micheala had really used all her connections to make this plan work but where was she? They were being taken down and the fuzzy was dying.“Ahhhh!” I shouted, throwing the pillow on the floor. Mabel immediately came in. “What's wrong boss? Why did you scream?”“It's all fucked up! My whole plan has been ruined. How did he find out about this?”“I don't understand what you mean. What is ruined and how is it ruined. Talk to me, boss.”“Call me Michaela immediately. Tell her to be in my office before I return there. And be back here after you deliver my message.”“Yes boss!” She answered and immediately rushed out of the room. I sat in my chair but still felt uneasy with everything. Mason was not going to let me be. He wasn't going to let me have Elena and he was too quick to figure out who sent out that article.There was a knock on my door and Mabel came in immediately holding a phone. “Boss, it is Mason
