TESSA’S POV“ Baby please take me home, I’m having a headache, “ I said to Kace. Not knowing I was going to meet another big and shocking discovery.“ Alright Love, but I need to say something to Triss “ He answered as we stood up from our wanting to leave Principal Sanders's Office.“ Next time you try this kind of thing with my wife, you'll have me to contend with. I didn't say anything today because I wanted to warn you first “ He said with a deadly look on his face that I began to think if he was acting like we agreed to or if he was being real.“ Do you understand me, Miss Lincoln? “ He asked“ Yes, Kace I do “ Triss replied not being able to look Kace in the face.“ You’ll address me as Mr. Crawford. I can't remember being on a first-name basis with you “ He answered with a straight face.Triss was speechless as she looked away totally embarrassed and Kace walked out of the Office. But before I followed behind him, I smirked at Triss before closing the door.When we entered Kace

KACE POV“ Where is Drake Crawford!!! “ Triss’s Dad thundered with a deadly look on his face. I stood watching the man wondering what they were doing here asking after Drake with such anger.This is the first time seeing them come to our home. Something must be amiss. They looked like they came here prepared for trouble.“ Where is that boy!! “ The mother angrily butted in while Triss stood with her head bowed, was it out of shame?“ I'm here Sir, hope there is no problem, “ Drake said standing behind them. Looks like he just came from the garden. Just then my parents come out of the Manor to talk to Triss’s parents. I guess they were informed about the commotion happening outside by the maids or security men.“ Good day Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln, to what do we owe this special visit? “ my mom asked, smiling so much that I thought her mouth might tear apart.“ Keep your greetings to yourself young man “ Triss’s dad retorted and turned to my parents with a deadly expression on his face.“P

TESSA POV“ Why Triss? Drake why? “ I angrily asked as I looked at both of them.When I saw Triss smirking at me I knew that there was something fishy about this pregnant lady and when I looked at her, she looked very familiar.“ What did we do? “ They asked in unison but the guilt was written all over their faces.I glared at them angrily and decided to reserve all I have to say till they get back from signing the marriage certificate.“ You all should go sign the marriage certificate first, my husband and I would sit here with this lady and wait for you guys so that we can address this issue because I won't accept this. If we don't address this issue I'll pack back to my father's house “ I threatened.“ No, my daughter, there must be a mix-up somewhere. My son Kace is a very good boy and he needs a good girl like you to support him. Wait for us, we'll be back soon “ Kaces dad pleaded. But his mom didn't look like she cared at all. She had changed so much since after Kace and I got ma

TESSA POV“ Tess, What's going on here? “ Kace asked curiously. Liana and pulled away from each other and she sat beside me not wanting to go back to her sit any longer.She hadn’t changed a bit. Always wanting to be close to me. I guess she was the nearest person Drake could use to do his dirty work and I’m sure he didn’t tell her that I was one she would do this to.I’m very sure she would have refused if she knew it was me from the onset.“ Eliana here was my classmate from high school, she was on scholarship so the rich kids loved to bully her a lot “ I began to explain.“ I used to admire Tess a lot back then because she didn’t allow her rich background to influence her character. She wasn’t as rude and pompous as the other rich kids “ Eliana said looking at her with a smile.“ One day the cheerleader Kim and her clique took me to the female toilet and began to bully me. They poured water on my clothes, and hair and began pulling my hair. They brought out a pink liquid in was tube

TESSA’S POV“ What did you just say? “ My mother-in-law asked the woman.“ All the young lady has said is true except one part, “ The feminine voice said, and when we turned to look at the person I could see that Kace, Drake, their mom, and dad looked surprised. “ Who is she? “ I was not able to hold back my curiosity any longer. It was a beautiful elderly woman who wore the same uniform as the maids who interfered. I haven't seen her since I came.“ Nanny Agatha, what do you mean? “ Kace asked her and secretly mouthed for her not to say what she was about to say.I guess she overheard us and wanted Drake to pay for his actions. She saw what Kace mouthed to her and the others didn't see because Kace had his back to them.“ Well, what I was trying to say was that she didn't say the part where I recognized her when she walked into the gate and asked her to go back home to her grandmother. Telling her I'll help her plead to your family to assist her “ The nanny ended up saying. I secret

I parted my lip as his lips got closer to mine.But suddenly he pulled away and began to laugh. I just stood still looking at him trying to gather my composure and was embarrassed at myself for not pushing him away from me.He laughed and pointed at me before saying “ You need to see the look on your face. I was just trying to get a reaction from you Tess. I know you would never allow me to kiss you, you might probably bite my lips if I do so without you agreeing to it “ “ Is this funny to you Kace? “ I asked angrily and the smile from his face disappeared when he saw that I wasn't happy about it.“ Tess I'm sorry I didn't know it would rile you up. I was just playing with you, " he said.“ This is your definition of playing? Is that how you play with your female friends? “ I couldn't help but ask. The tho

TESSA’S POV“ I want you Tess, I want all of you!! “ Kace said as he stood up with his eyes never leaving mine.Hearing Kace say this added to the pleasure that had built within me. His erection was visible even though he was still putting on his suit and my mouth watered when I noticed this.“ I thought you were diagnosed with erectile dysfunction? Then how come is your big man here standing so well “ I asked seductively as I massaged his dick with my hands and that made him tilt his head backward as he moaned softly.But when he raised his head, I could see that his eyes darkened with lust as he said “ A dick would always stand when it sees its owner and you are now its owner, it's all your Tess “ he said and I smirked as I stood up and claimed his lips.At first, the kiss was slow and passionate but then it became more demanding as we kissed, our tongues tangling savoring each taste and he cupped my breasts in his hands as he fiddled with them.I felt my knees go weak.

Agent eyes were widened in surprise too.When we got there and I looked inside the room I saw my mother-in-law lying down in her pool of blood. There was a knife covered with blood beside her.I gasped at the sight in front of us. She was stabbed to death. Could it be that she committed suicide? Or someone killed her.

Shit!! let me call you back “ Eliana said and ended the call abruptly.“ What just happened, why did she curse and end the call so abruptly? “ My mother-in-law who I didn’t even know was listening in on our conversation asked me.That was the same question I was asking myself right now. Why did she end the call so abruptly? I was worried and so was Tess and her mom.I dialed Brandon’s number to ask him to track Eliana's phone so that we would know her location and go to check on her because I feared that she was in danger due to the way she ended the call abruptly.“ Hey Brandon, please can you track Eliana’s number?

THE ARRANGED BRIDE CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED-FOUR
TESSA’S POVSeeing Kace trying to communicate with his eyes to Agent Maynard and Brandon who just walked into the house with smiles on their faces was funny.I'm pretty sure that he was trying to tell them not to utter a word because Brandon was about to speak.Luckily Agent Maynard understood the message Kace was trying to pass across when he saw Kace's foster mom seated with my mom. He held Brandon’s hand and signaled for him not to talk.I also knew that deep in my mom's heart, if she was given the chance she'll shred my mother-in-law into tiny little pieces. My mom was nice and kind but she was also fierce when necessary.“ Good evening everyone “ Agent Maynard greeted us and we answered with a nod of our heads.

THE ARRANGED BRIDE CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED-THREE
KACE’S POVI drove home as my heart leaped for joy knowing that Tess had regained her memory. That means we would be able to know what happened before she had the accident. Argh, I couldn’t wait to see her.It took me just twenty minutes to drive to my house. My gatekeeper opened the gate for me and I drove in. I quickly parked my car and went into my house, heading upstairs straight.When I got to the front of my bedroom door, I paused and let out a sharp exhale before turning the doorknob of the bedroom door and going in. Hardly had I closed the door when Tessa ran and crushed me in a bear hug.I hugged her back as the scent of her shampoo graced my nose, it was soothing and made me realize how much I was scared if she didn't remember anything.The thought she was carrying my child too made me nervous and glad at the same time. What would be her reaction if I told her? I thought to myself but pushed the thought aside.We pulled away from each and shared a passionate kiss. It was sho
THE ARRANGED BRIDE CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED-TWO
KACE’S POVIt was high time we put an end to all these things happening to us once and for all because I knew without any doubt, that all these things happening were connected to one person and so help me God the day we catch the person behind all this, I’ll kill that person myself, I thought to myself and stepped on the accelerator angrily, zooming off to Vin’s place. I pulled up into Vin’s parking space after twenty minutes and rang the doorbell. The door opened immediately as though the person had been standing at the door and waiting for me.“ What's up? How is Tess doing? Any good news regarding her health? “ Brandon asked immediately after I got into the house.It was noon and really sunny outside, so when I got into the house, I loved it when the cold emitting from the air conditioning in the house touched my skin. It felt refreshing.“ I don't know man, “ I said and slumped on the couch in Vin’s sitting room tiredly. It was only at this moment that I knew how exhausted I was.
THE ARRANGED BRIDE CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED-ONE
TESSA’S POVI woke up and found myself in a strange environment. I saw two people standing not far away from my bed and they seemed like they were having a heated conversation. The man with striking brown eyes rushed to me and called me babe when he saw that I was awake.Babe? Isn't that the pet name that lovers called themselves? So why was he calling me that? I frowned because I didn't remember knowing this man. So I asked who he was and he looked at me, surprised at the question I just asked.An elderly woman and a young lady around my age rushed into the room and they called me, Tessa. The woman said she was my mom but I couldn't remember anything.I was frustrated but didn't show it, these people seemed very worried and I felt venting my frustration would make them worry more.I told the handsome man with striking blue eyes and jet black hair that I didn't know him and also the woman. Although I tried my best to be polite to them.My mind and head were a mess, I was trying hard t
