Valerie waited for Andre in the bedroom, lying down with her eyes closed but not being able to sleep.

When Andre came back, he typed in the password and entered the safe house. Realizing that Valerie was likely sleeping in her room, he went into his, took off his clothes, and entered the bathroom.

He felt happy as the water poured on his body, but he knew that his revenge would not be complete until he eventually caught Drew and had the Black Bull under his control.

The sound of rushing water made Valerie open her eyes. She had a feeling that someone else was in the house, and she suddenly became scared.

Of course, she knew that only Andre had the password to this place, but he had also told her that his father knew about this place, and she didn't know anything about his father, nor could she trust him.

What if he sent someone to harm her? If it was Andre, she believed he would've called immediately and told her how everything went through.

    Andre emerged from the mansion, hopped into his car, and drove off. He continued driving until he reached one of his private guest houses. Exiting the car, he opened the door and was greeted by a room filled with tall, curvy girls scantily clad in g-strings and barely-covering bra tops. Smoke hung in the air as some of them indulged in tobacco and the likes, and lively music pulsed through the room as they danced. As he gazed at them, a smile played at the corners of his lips.Andre made his way through the crowd of strippers, finally reaching a chair at the far end. He settled into it, grabbing a pack of cigarettes and lighting one up. The girls gathered around him, drawn by his presence.With the music growing louder, they swayed their hips and danced around him. Andre watched them with excitement, while some of the girls settled on either side of his legs, giving him lap dances. One of them approached him and said, "I've missed you so much, Scorpion."Andre smiled and shotgunned h

    Drew remained in hiding. The arrival of Andre had taken him by surprise. He had thought that everything had come under his control and that he was in charge. Now he knew that Andre must have been playing him for a fool. Even Andre's father, Ace, must have been aware, but he pretended to be oblivious to the fact that Andre was still alive and went along with his plans. If he hadn't been smart enough to place his spy outside to let him know if Andre eventually showed up for the quarterly meeting, he would have lost his life that day. It was a good call on his part. Now that he was in hiding, he knew that only one person could come to his aid. He had kept him hidden for a rainy day, and that action was paying off. He soon heard a knock on his door and got up. He stood behind his door and asked, "Who are you?""It's me," the voice replied.The moment Drew heard the voice, he opened his door and let him inside. The underling who had come in took off his hood and said, "Good day, boss. I

    Andre drove back home and remained in his car. Just as he did the previous day, he used breath freshener to conceal the fact that he had smoked, and also sprayed some perfume on his body to ensure that Valerie did not perceive the scent of the girls he had earlier been with. Afterward, he came out of his car and went inside the house. Valerie sat down on the bed in the room, reading.When he came in and saw her, he said, "Hey, what's up?"She stared at him and turned her attention back to the book she was reading without giving him a reply. He knew that she was upset because of the things he had said earlier. He stood for a while, staring at her, and finally went to sit beside her on the bed. However, she still ignored him.Placing his arm around her shoulder, he said, "I'm sorry, Valerie. I guess I upset you with my words. It wasn't deliberate. It's just that I'm not used to having other people go through my phone without my consent.""But I told you I didn't go through your phone.

Andre acquired the land he had shown her, and they began the building of her hospital.She spoke to her brother every day. She video-called him most of the time, and whenever she didn't call, he was the one who did. Andre spent most of his time with her and he turned out to be very understanding. They had lots of sex, ate together, and he even took her shopping a few times. These were things she thought someone in Andre's position would never do. However, he was loving and caring, and any disagreements that crept up were easily resolved because Andre couldn't bear to see her upset. Now, looking back, being kidnapped by Andre turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

    As Andre drove back home after the meeting he attended, his mind kept revisiting the moment when Valerie confronted him with the video of his misbehavior on her phone. He couldn't shake off the feeling that someone had sent that video to her, and the sender must be someone who was with him on that day. His underlings were not present, so the person who sent the video must have been inside. The only people present were those girls. They were the reason he had resorted to his actions today. He knew Valerie would be upset, causing him immense heartache. He had no choice when she approached him, showing the video. Initially, he had wanted to explain everything, but then Black Bull emerged with his men from inside the building, and Valerie's voice echoed loudly. Andre had noticed the surprise on Black Bull's face, and he alone knew how dangerous and sinister Black Bull could be. If he had allowed Valerie to speak to him that way without doing anything, Black Bull would have realized tha

    Valerie got up in the morning, took her bath, and got dressed. She was happy. The last two weeks had been difficult for her but thanks to her brother, she had been able to move on. The most important thing was that she was going to begin her first day at Best Diagnostic Hospital. It wasn't easy, as her brother had neglected his reputation, pleaded with people all around, and even made himself like a slave to his boss just to help her secure the job. He felt that this was the best way for her to move on. If she remained at home, she was going to die of depression. Julius truly was the best thing in her life. She had been made a fool of before, so she promised herself that she would not let anyone take her for granted ever again.She arrived at the hospital and went into the signing room to put in her signature. Afterward, she happily went to her office. Although she had seen her office the previous day, she still could not believe it was hers. It was small, though, but her name was b

"I'm very sorry, Valerie. I know that you're really hurt by what happened.""Shut the hell up! You shut the hell up!" Valerie barked. "Are you daft or something? I have no interest in whatever you have to say, Andre. If you do not get out of this house right now, I'm going to bury a bullet in your chest and this time there'll be no doctor to attend to you.""Okay," Andre said. "I will leave.....Meanwhile, I brought something for you."He put his hand in his pocket and brought out the keys to her car."Here, your car has been parked all this while. No one has driven it because it belongs only to you. Here's the key. If you like, I'll have it delivered here first thing in the morning. You can drive it as much as you wish."Valerie smiled. "Is that so?"Andre nodded, feeling happy that he had finally gotten

    Andre told his mom everything he did and his reasons for doing them. After hearing his version, she sighed, "Well, I cannot blame her. In all honesty, I might not be able to forgive a man if he treated me that way.""Even if that man was my father?" Andre asked. "Are you saying if it's your husband, you still will not forgive him?"His mom laughed, "Your father's relationship with me is different. When he took me, he was, of course, some times an ass, but he wouldn't stop telling me about how much he loved me, and soon enough, he started proving it.And when we finally forged a relationship, your father became the best man in the world.

    Andre took Valerie to the roof of the hospital. When they reached the top, she looked around and asked, "What is it you want to show me, Andre?" He moved closer to her and said, "Close your eyes."She smiled and obeyed, closing her eyes. Suddenly, she heard a bang, followed by another and then another. She kept hearing different sounds and realized they were fireworks. "Open your eyes," Andre said.Valerie opened her eyes and turned around as Andre directed her to face the direction of the sound. As she looked up at the sky, she saw vibrant colors and, finally, the words "Will you marry me?" popped up."Wow!" Valerie exclaimed in excitement. She turned to give Andre her reply, and at that moment, he went down on one knee, presenting her with a ring. "Yes, I'll marry you," Valerie said and stretched out her hand.Andre put the ring on her finger and then got up, pulling her into his arms for a hug. "I am beyond excited, Andre," Valerie said.

    While Andre and Valerie were still together in the hospital room, Julius walked in. Seeing how close they were, he coughed, and Andre turned to see him."Hi Andre," Julius greeted."Hi Julius," Andre replied."So, the doctor said Melody is going to live, but she's still unconscious," Julius informed."Oh, okay. Good for her," Andre responded."I'm sorry, Julius. I know everything that happened..." Andre apologized."No," Julius shook his head. "No, Andre, it's not your fault. There are some things that are your fault, though. But there are other things I take responsibility for. If I had not let Melody into my life, Valerie wouldn't have been put in so much danger.""No, you don't understand," Andre said. "Drew would not have sent her into your life if.....""Maybe not. Maybe he wouldn't have gone to the extent he did today. But I almost lost Valerie, and it's all my fault. I was so focused on chasing you and making sure you stayed away from my sister that I didn't even notice the ene

    When they arrived at the hospital, Andre opened the door of the car and carried Valerie out. Afterward, he rushed her to the hospital. Right after that, Julius arrived, and a stretcher was brought for him. He placed Melody onto the stretcher, and she was also rushed into the hospital.As they took Valerie into a private ward, Andre sat by her side and watched as the doctor attended to her. Seeing that he had so much blood on his body, the doctor said, "You seem to be faring worse than she is. Why don't you get your injuries treated?""Okay," Andre said, not wanting Valerie to worry.Valerie lay on the bed with her eyes closed as she waited for the doctor to carry out different tests on her. Meanwhile, another doctor attended to Andre. He took off his jacket, and the injuries on his shoulder, arms, and face were treated.All the while, Valerie kept waiting for the results of her test. Andre had not said anything about her pregnancy so far, and a part of her was afraid that he was goin

He stared in surprise at Melody, and when Andre noticed Drew's distraction, he took the opportunity to slip one hand into his pocket and press the button before lifting it back up.Outside, where they had been waiting, Soldier finally received the signal. "It's time for us to go in," he said. "We need to be very careful. There may be hostages."They began making their way slowly and cautiously into the building. Julius's face contorted in horror as he stared at Drew and Valerie. His complexion turned pale as he had witnessed numerous dead bodies strewn across the ground while running inside.Although he worked for an investigating firm, Julius had never encountered such a sight before. He believed that Andre must have killed all these people just to reach Valerie. Looking at Andre, blood staining his arms and body, he gazed at Valerie and back at Andre, understanding that Andre truly loved

  • STOLEN HEART    WHO ARE YOU?

    Andre stared at the mansion for a while, and finally turned and walked toward the opposite mansion, which was higher than the one Drew was in. As he reached the other mansion with his bag, he kept climbing until he got to the roof. He positioned himself, took out his rifle from his bag, and pointed at the building. From his vantage point, he could see all the men stationed outside. Without wasting any time, he came up with a better idea. He knew that if he was the only one shooting, it wouldn't take long for them to figure out his location and take cover. So, he called for Soldier and the rest to join him in the same building. Once they were all there, he asked them to position themselves with their rifles and wait for his order. After pressing the button and hearing his phone ring, they were to begin shooting. By ensuring their vantage point, they could take down at least seventy men. Andre made his way to the back of the house. At this point, he pressed the button, and Soldier

  • STOLEN HEART    WHERE IS MY SISTER?

    Valerie heard noises around her, voices that were unfamiliar, and struggled to open her eyes. The moment she did, she saw a few men with guns at the door. When she looked to her right, she saw someone sitting on a chair, one of his legs seemed to be bandaged as though he had been shot, and he had a crutch by his side. She lifted her face a little bit to get a better view, and when she saw his face, she remembered that Andre had once shown her his picture, and she recalled his name: Drew. She quickly bent her head down and closed her eyes, pretending to be unconscious.She thought back to the events of the day, how Melody had tricked her, and how she had fought with her to deliver her to Drew. She suddenly began to fear for her life. She knew that Drew was Andre's enemy, and if he was keeping her there, it was surely in a bid to get Andre to come. This was one of the things she feared about men in the mafia. For the first time, she wished that she was moving around with a gun. The f

    When Melody got into the car, she noticed Valerie's phone lying on her seat and picked it up. She turned it off and placed her hand on her racing chest. She turned on the car and began to drive to the location Drew had given her.When she arrived, she was surprised to see a big mansion. She had never met Drew in that house before, but what surprised her, even more, was the presence of so many underlings—over a hundred—positioned in different places, armed with weapons. She felt sorry for Valerie because she knew she wouldn't make it, and she also felt guilty. She tried to justify her actions, telling herself she didn't have a choice. She owed Drew her life and was only fulfilling the promise to do anything he wanted in return for saving her.When she finally parked the car, she came out and pulled Valerie, who was still unconscious, out of it. Some of the underlings noticed her struggling and came to assist. Together, they took Valerie into the house. Drew, using crutches on one si

    After the call with Drew ended, Melody sat on her couch, thinking about what to do. She was very scared. It was bad enough that Andre was closing in on her, from what Drew had said, and now she had to get Valerie. How was she supposed to do it? Drew had given her until midnight. She paced up and down, thinking about what to do until an idea suddenly struck her mind, and she stopped. She looked at the time on her clock and saw that it was a few minutes to five. She knew that Valerie always closed from work around six or six thirty, and judging from the fact that her relationship with Andre was now good, it was likely that he would come to pick her up after work. After coming up with a plan in her head, she quickly dashed out of the house and hurried to Valerie's place of work.Valerie was still in her office when she was informed that there was someone waiting to see her. At first, she thought it was Andre since he had called her and said that he would be picking her up for dinner.
