โI think it is turning the sunny side up for everyone in the family, your wife is now the newest heiress in town, your Aldine family power keeps increasing every second,โ Zayn said and Alexander rolled his eyes at him before turning to continue writing what he was writing.โShut your mouth Zayn,โ He snapped at him and he pouted.โCanโt you be as gentle with me as you are with that pen,โ Zayn grumbled, pointing to the ball point which Alexander was using to write and the man paused to stare at him.โAre you seriously doing this right now, Zayn?โ Alexander asked his friend in disbelief.โYep, I am,โ he answered and he glared at him. โOkay, I give up. Did you talk to Sapphire?โ Zayn added.โYes I did, she is at her cooking class, having a talk with her group of friends. She would come here after she is done,โ Alexander said, a small smile on his lips.Zayn is sure that he doesnโt even know that he is smiling, his wife and kids bring out a side he had never seen with his friends and he lo
What are you talking about? She is Heather, I was there when she was led here and since then she had not been let out of sight,โ Mike replied and Emmy stared Heather one more time before nodding anyway, a hint of doubt still remained in her eyes but she kept her mouth sealed.โIf one of you would please tell me what the hell you are doing here. We have been seating her for more than two freaking hours in silence,โ Heather finally said after she had enough with her family who just kept staring at her as if she was a portrait, they made no move to talk and they didn't do as they would do soon.They were looking like someone forced them to be present here.โWhat are we waiting for, Emmy?โ Mike asked.โMy assistant, I forgot something important at the office, I am supposed to get Heather there but since you want everything confidential, I have to make sure that I have everything here,โ She said, โI trust that you have also arranged everything I asked for,โ Emmy said.โTrust us on that, doc
Sapphire looked around the deserted place in confusion, there was nothing around this place except loads of cars piled up on each other, it looks like a place where those cars that have been trashed and wonโt be used anymore are kept. No idea or any hint pointing to where Andrea might be kept, no traces of Oliver, Sebastian or his men.โAre they really here?โ Nate was the one that voiced out her worries and Zayn checked his phone again before nodding, his men were already at the place too but they had no idea of where to head to so they waited for them to arrive before taking any action whatsoever.Zaynโs phone rang and picked up the call. It was silent for a bit because none of them bothered to talk. Sapphire was about to open her mouth but stopped because of Alexanderโs glare. The glare made chills run down her spine, he had never glared at her like that before so she was going to make sure not to offend him again in the future.Suddenly, the sound of laughter rang out from the phone
HEATHERโS ACCOUNT OF WHAT HAPPENED ON THE AWARD NIGHT WHEN UNDER HYPNOSIS.Heather laid down there with no will to stand up and do anything to save herself, she had admitted to herself that she is not as strong as Sapphire and would never be, maybe this is where her own story would end.She had sworn that she would never go down alone, and believed with every fiber in her body that she would drag Sapphire down with her.What more dragging down is there for her to do? You can only drag down something that is above you and in your reach but Sapphire had soared higher and out of her reach, even if she tried over and over for a million times, she still wouldnโt get her.This is her punishment, this is what she believed, and there is no doubt in it.This is her punishment for snatching the fiancรฉ of a woman who trusted her with all of her heart and letting her down the worst way possible, she colluded with her evil sister and messed her up and all for what?For a useless and selfish man wh
Sapphire ran to Andrea who was hiding behind one of the fallen crates, she had bent down, covered her ears with her hand and closed her eyes while singing a poem that was taught to them at school.Sapphire quickly hugged when she got to where was while tears fell from her face in relief, her daughter was safe and sound, she was not injured in any way.โBaby,โ She whispered and Andrea opened her eyes when she heard the words, her lips curved into a smile when she was her mother in front of her, she was bending down too.โMom,โ Andrea said and Sapphire nodded.The men were still shooting and while she was now anxious to know if the men -especially Alexander - were okay now that she confirmed that her daughter is safe, she still stayed there with Andrea, hugging her to herself.โAre you alright?โ She asked and Andrea nodded. โDid they hurt you?โ She asked and the girl shook her head, Sapphire nodded in understanding.โWait a bit. They will be done soon, we can home in a bit,โ Sapphire sai
Mrs. Smith had mentioned Mirandaโs name when the hypnosis was in process and she had diverted into another place, a memory that was buried so deeply in the back of her mind and under piles and piles of thoughts, a memory she didnโt know that she had or even existed. _-------------------- HEATHERโS SECOND WEIRD & UNKNOWN ACCOUNT WHEN UNDER HYPNOSISIt is alright if she dies, what more is there to hold on to after everything that has happened.A beer in her hand, a cigarette on her lips, tears in her eyes and voices in her head, pale lips, dry and sore throat. Her eyes were red from crying and she looked so thin because of hunger and malnourishment.She stared out through the window of a small one room apartment, the dingy and run-down apartment is hers. It contains both her best and worst of her memories.It was cool that she still had the apartment with her at the moment even though the landlord had been yelling at her to evacuate or she would come and help her throw her stuff out t
Two women stood at the edge of the bed, staring down at the woman who had been stuck in a coma for more than three months.โIs she going to wake up?โ One of the women asked, her eyes running over the woman who was lying motionlessly on the bed.โWho knows? Even though she doesn't know. She canโt guess because this woman would always be weak, she had been weak since forever,โ The second woman standing beside her replied.โWhat are we going to do when she wakes up?โ The first woman asked.โWhat she had planned to do. It doesnโt matter if she doesn't lose her memory when she wakes up, she is still going to do it. She has got no choice,โ She answered.โAnd if she doesnโt wake up?โ Then she would be discarded.โShe is going to wake up,โ Another woman said entering the room.โYou sound so sure,โ The second woman said.โThatโs because she is already showing signs of waking up Jessica,โ she answered.โIs she going to be worth the mission you are putting her on? A mission she has no idea of?โโ
โSeems like your friend and your sister donโt like you as much as you thought,โ Nate said with a smirk as soon as Oliver was conscious.โFuck off!โ He snapped and both Nate and Zayn scoffed. โFucking let me go asses!โโYou just said that we are your lackeys,โ Zayn said, he pulled his hair and the man winced. โGet this straight man, you are under our hold now, so you should learn to keep that hole shot before I put a bullet through it.โAlexander and Sapphire just stood beside each other staring at the man with blank expression on both of their faces, they really suited each other.โSave that bullshit and let me go, you would end up regretting this a lot,โ Oliver threatened and Zayn scoffed at him in disbelief before punching him hard on the face, Oliver saw stars for a minute before spitting out blood, he turned back to Zayn with a broken nose.โShut up loser,โ he told him quietly, he turned to glance at Andrea and smiled at her, the girl smiled back at him.โNo offense sweetheart,โ h

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 Luciโs 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.โYou finally decided to show your face out here?โ Mr. Aldine said and Sapphire laughed, it was a small and quiet laugh.โI am sorry for not visiting you since all this while,โ Sapphire said.โI understand. You have been busy, besides I have the kids by my side most o
โThe only thing I love the most about everything here is your ring, I mean, would you check out that beautiful thing?โ 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.โYou have been saying that you loved the ring in a thousand different phrases ever since you saw that ring on her finger,โ Gladys said beside her, Sapphire didnโt 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.โJust how much was it worth? Did you ask him?โ 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 didnโt 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 didnโt 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
โYou shouldnโt do this to me, if you do this to me you would be a murderer too,โ Arielle said, desperately and Sapphire shrugged.โDoesnโt matter. We Conrad are known for being villainous already, if I emerged as a murderer, people wonโt be shocked, they would be even glad that I got rid of you for them.โ Sapphire said and nodded. โHere is what we would do. Try to convince me to not kill you, I am listening,โ Sapphire gestured to her with her hands.โArenโt you afraid of ending up in hell?โ 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 couldnโt stop herself.โWhat?โ 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 โNo, you didnโt just say that bitch.โSome of the
Arielle sat in the cell that was reserved for only โhardened criminalsโ like her, thatโs 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 dayโs 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 didnโt 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 hadnโt been in prison because she foolish
โWith 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.โ The judge said and Melissa just stared blankly at every single person in the court, her eyes met Sapphireโs and they both stared at each other solemnly for a bit.It was Melissaโs 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.โSave 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,โ 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.โYou 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,โ 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 didnโt made any silly mistake like letting a strand of her hair remain in the murder scene, she had gloves and boots on and thatโs 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
