Melissa smirked when she saw the myriad of emotions that passed Heather's face when she saw her fiance's Ex.She is in for a treat because her Sapphire definitely packed a lot of sass from Gisborne.She took some steps back to follow the beats of the song but bumped into someone, she turned to look at the person and bitched at them but paused when she saw that it was that hot guy she saw in the garden with Alexander when they had that breakfast.She remembered that cripple calling him Andrew.She opened and closed her mouth, she was speechless, the approach she had planned seemed so useless now."Sorry for that, I wasn't looking where I was going," The guy apologized, he is a gentleman."It takes two to tangle, it is both of our faults, sorry" she said after regaining her sense of speech. "I am Melissa,""You can't be the famous Melissa or are you?""In her flesh and blood, am that Melissa,""Then you are Sapphire's sister," "Yes I am,""Alexander's cousin," he said and took a sip, "
“Oh my,” The lady with fur said, turning to face those she was standing with, eyes wide. “Are you all sure that is Sapphire, where did she get all that courage,”“Look, Tina, I am just as confused as you are, normally it is Heather talking like that to Sapphire,” Her friend told her and Tina turned to stare at Sapphire.“She just slapped her, Penny, like, Sapphire slapped Heather,” Tina said and Penny nodded.“We just saw that, stop screaming,” a man standing with them said, he adjusted his suit and took a glass of wine.“Don't they deserve that? They are bunch of assholes and bitches anyway, it is about time she put them in their fucking place,” Nick added.“Things are going to get pretty interesting very soon, look over there, Melissa is going to them,” Penny said pointing to Melissa.“I wonder if you would be able to stand up to Melissa, shame I didn't bring popcorns,” Tina said, adjusting her fur while she sipped from the glass.“You would be a weirdo if you did, idiot,”—--------
“Isn't it a sin to look that handsome, I mean, he gets hotter everyday,” Penny gushed.“How do you know that, this is probably the first time you have seen him in five years, you don't see him everyday,” Nick said, looking at the Aldine mansion, he wondered what Sapphire was doing there.“Shut up! I see him everyday on TV,”“You mean a picture of him,”“How on earth can he make himself look so distinct and expensive without even trying,” Tina said, staring at the man who was looking around, as if he was searching for someone. He was the only one standing where he was, nobody dared to get too close to him.“I don't know what your definition of expensive is but, a man who owns the most expensive collection of suits and tux, use wristwatches that can buy some people's entire generation and is wearing an Oliver Cambell right now is nothing short of expensive,” Penny said and Tina nodded staring at his shoes.“I guess you are right,” she said in a low tone. “I don't have a chance with him,
A secretary who sat behind the desk picked up the telephone which was ringing.“Hello, you are connected to the Sparkle group.” The secretary said with a cheerful voice.“Thanks darling. My name is Elucianda Carter, your is?” The cheery voice of a lady greeted her back and a smile appeared on the secretary's face.She trapped the telephone between her ear and shoulder and quickly searched the name on the Rich Society net.“I am Mary Rhys, Ma’am. May I ask what I can do for you,” Mary replied as she waited for what she was searching to load successfully.“Can you connect me to your CEO?”“Unfortunately, ma’am. Mr. Gray is not available at the moment,” Mary said and grabbed the mouse when the search results became available.“Right, I forgot that they are all at the Aldines' mansion,”“Yes ma'am and here we are stuck at the desk,”“Tell me about it,”Mary let out a low whistle when she saw that Ms. Elucianda Carter is the second daughter of a rich businessman, who owns a big constructio
Two years AgoSapphire stood in front of the mirror with a gummy smile on her face, she was over the moon, ecstatic and overwhelmed with happiness, the attendant beside her smiled at the bride to be when she saw the smile on the her faceShe had been working for years but she could swear that among the few rich women who married, her smile was the brightest, it was done with all the organs that made up her face.“Oh my god! I love this too, I don't know which dress I should choose. Everything looks so beautiful, or is it because I am finally getting married to Oliver?” She asked, moving to and fro, checking out the wedding gown she wore and the attendant smiled.The lady really loved her fiance, she told her how long they had been together before finally deciding to get married and she couldn't be happier, everything she had been doing since she walked in was for her fiance.“I wish Heather was here to tell me her thoughts, maybe then it
Sapphire watched as Oliver wrapped his hand around Heather's shoulder and led her away from the room but couldn't hear what they were saying, her eyes were blurry and her ears were ringing.She was tempted to lie down there on the floor and take a breath while letting them do whatever they wanted to do to her but her love for her unborn child won't allow that.It would eat at her conscience for the rest of her life if she allowed it, so with all the strength in her, which isn't much by the way, she tried to stand up but her leg failed her and she found herself on the floor again.She could feel the perspiration all over her body and she knew that she was coming down with a fever. Doesn't matter, she crawled her way to the door and opened it, she crawled out of the apartment and locked the door behind her when she was out of his place.She rested her back on the door and let out a breath before she continued her journey. She crawled all the way to
Sapphire heard the beeping of a machine and was faced with darkness. She wondered what was happening and realized that she was closing her eyes.She tried to open her eyes even though it was as heavy as a lid, she could hear the sound of people going back and forth, the signature smell of a hospital and the bed that didn't feel like her bed.She was finally able to open her eyes and it was blurry for a moment before everything started to become clear. She blinked rapidly, trying to clear her vision.She was really at a hospital, she stared around and realized that it was the hospital room that she was admitted into when she sprained her ankle.“What is happening, Why am I back here?” She asked herself as she stared up at the ceiling. “Last thing I remembered was that I slept on my bed,” she kept talking and tried to sit up but fell back because of the intense pain she felt , her leg was in a cast but the pain she felt was in her stomach and lower
PRESENT THE ALDINES' MANSION Alexander was wondering why Sapphire wasn't back when he noticed that Oliver too was also missing from the group, he cursed and made his way towards the ladies restroom.He met Alicia on the way and held her by the hand, pulling her to a stop while still looking around.“What's wrong?” Alicia asked and Alexander turned to her and nodded.“Did you see Sapphire come this way, she said that she wanted to go to the restroom and she had been gone for the past thirty minutes,” He said and Alicia stared at him puzzled.“That isn't a cause for alarm, she could be doing her business there or getting away from those brats,” Alicia said.“Oliver had also disappeared, I remember that he left shortly after Sapphire did,”“It could be a coincidence,” she said unsure and he shook his head.“I don't believe in that,” He replied and started walking away.“So, are you going to enter th

Last time, it was her family signing a fake marriage contract, but this time, she was having a real engagement party.Alexander was talking with a the same man he was talking to that day, and was standing at that same spot, only this time, the spot where Melissa stood was acquired by Luci and Zayn, they were chatting heartily, a man tried to pass and almost bumped into Luci but Zayn quickly wrapped his hand around her waist and pulled her to the side, they both talked to the man and resumed their conversation, but Zayn hands never left Luci’s waist which made Sapphire smile.Not too far from them were Tiara and Fiona who seemed to be having a serious conversation. Fiona was the one speaking while Tiara just stared at her.“You finally decided to show your face out here?” Mr. Aldine said and Sapphire laughed, it was a small and quiet laugh.“I am sorry for not visiting you since all this while,” Sapphire said.“I understand. You have been busy, besides I have the kids by my side most o
“The only thing I love the most about everything here is your ring, I mean, would you check out that beautiful thing?” Tiara who was dressed to perfection gushed, she bent beside Sapphire and held her hand up to her face, and she stared at the ring with a gooey look in her eyes. She had asked Sapphire to remove it to let her examine it but Sapphire had refused to do that.“You have been saying that you loved the ring in a thousand different phrases ever since you saw that ring on her finger,” Gladys said beside her, Sapphire didn’t know that someone could look so hot in a super short dress at an engagement party but she managed to rock it hard. Gladys rrolled her eyes at her friend who only pouted at her before turning back to the ring.“Just how much was it worth? Did you ask him?” Luci asked as she perched herself on the beautiful chair that Sapphire was sitting, she also stared at it in admiration. Luci had gone for the dark look with her floor length back dress that was slit all t
Headache shot up her head when she hit her head on the floor and she willed it to split apart in order to stop, she could only groan in her throat and curse Sapphire and her friends over and over in her head.She turned to her head and felt every single part of her body freeze, she didn’t even dare to blink, it would make too much noise and her body was particularly capable of that feat.Just a foot away from her were giant scorpions, they were huddled together at a spot and were unmoving, her eyes trailed upward and a gasp would have fell from her lips if she didn’t have that gag because she saw a snake crawled on the ground into a spot and came out of another opened one, that was when she saw the snake for what it was; a viper.Cold sweat covered her and her body started shaking in fear, her inability to run her way out of this dangerous ditch also made her terrified, it would be the end of her if she was attacked.She tried to move back only for back to slam heavily on what seemed
“You shouldn’t do this to me, if you do this to me you would be a murderer too,” Arielle said, desperately and Sapphire shrugged.“Doesn’t matter. We Conrad are known for being villainous already, if I emerged as a murderer, people won’t be shocked, they would be even glad that I got rid of you for them.” Sapphire said and nodded. “Here is what we would do. Try to convince me to not kill you, I am listening,” Sapphire gestured to her with her hands.“Aren’t you afraid of ending up in hell?” she blurted out and Sapphire stared at her with a dumbfounded expression, everyone paused what they were doing but Luci was the first person that burst into laughter, she doubled as she tried to control her laughter and catch her breath but she couldn’t stop herself.“What?” Sapphire asked in disbelief and she started chuckling before she started to laugh . Zayn was snickering from where he sat and staring at Arielle with the expression that screams ‘No, you didn’t just say that bitch.”Some of the
Arielle sat in the cell that was reserved for only ‘hardened criminals’ like her, that’s what everyone referred to her as, she even saw some of the prisoners flinched when she brushed her hand passed them.Even though they call her suspect in face of any camera they see, they treat worse than a murderer that has went to court and branded as on, they should at least picked her to court first.She thought about the day’s event and laughed out loud, maniacally and hysterically, the wardens at her door glanced at her once before they turned to resume their duties of staring, at least that was what she assumed, she only saw their eyes through the small space at the top of the iron door and she didn’t saw them again when they moved.Melissa had been sentenced to life imprisonment. Very good! That was what she had planned from the beginning of her plan, the one she drew when she was sixteen, that was the only plan that was to her aid. Even if Melissa hadn’t been in prison because she foolish
“With all of the solid evidence against Ms. Melissa Conrad, I hereby sentence her to life imprisonment, the money that she has now would be used to pay for the companies she damaged and the rest would be confiscated.” The judge said and Melissa just stared blankly at every single person in the court, her eyes met Sapphire’s and they both stared at each other solemnly for a bit.It was Melissa’s hearing and Sapphire went with almost all her friend, Luci, Tiara and Gladys, Claire was absent because she had something she needed to do at the gallery and Trisha had once again been asked to do some humiliating task by her mother-in-law, Sapphire hopes that she would be able to break free from their abuse soon and would stop at nothing to help, Tiara also assured that if they interfere in it, her in-laws would not do as much as grunt but Trisha would only smile and say that it was not yet time to make such a move, she wanted to wait till climax before executing which made Sapphire suspect th
Luci rushed to Sapphire who was sprawled on the ground with a blood stain on her stomach. She felt her breathing and saw that she was still alive.“Save Sapphire first, let's get her to the hospital! Zayn, get a car instead of standing there like an immobilized ant, Claire, get the first aid box,” she screamed out orders and Claire quickly nodded, running to the door at the speed of light, it was like her feet weren't touching the floor at all, Zayn also went out of her sight and some men advanced towards her to help carry Sapphire.She saw that Alexander hadn't moved from the same spot he was since the Arielle fiasco started, it made her gritted her teeth in irritation and despite the fact that she always tread cautiously and respectfully around the man, she didn't know when she snapped at the man angrily.“You wife is here in the pool of her own blood, dying and barely holding on to life because of the stupid thing she did well th this crazy woman,” she said, glared at Arielle who h
Sapphire wrapped her night robe around her tighter, it was pretty chilling out here but she felt that she needed to go on a walk to clear her head now, Melissa has a hearing in the court the next day and in front of her very eyes, she might be convicted for a crime Sapphire was sure that she had absolutely no idea of.It was pretty clear to everyone in the inner circle that it was Arielle that set her up, Brielle had confirmed that Arielle was indeed sighted at the premises of the prison at that night, her face was shown as she was using her signature face cap and mask, she had her hair well-kept in her cap and didn’t made any silly mistake like letting a strand of her hair remain in the murder scene, she had gloves and boots on and that’s why no DNA of her was found on the scene.Though there was no assurance that she would be able to get Melissa out of the prison if she interfered, she would at least get a reduced sentence of a punishment lighter than the initial one that she would
