Thirty minutes later. Location: At the Saloon. *** Maria was satisfied with her hairstyle, and it was not just about her hairstyles. The look on everyone’s face, when they realized that she’s the one whose face has been popular around the whole media houses. She’s Donovan’s mother. The young woman was happy that she was finally getting the award she deserves, it’s not like she wasn’t hearing the negative comments too. After the encounter between her and Nora, no words were exchanged between them before she angrily walked away from the saloon. She has expected her to react to her doing the same hair as her, that’s like publicly announcing to the whole room that she was challenging her, but she had left.It was as if Nora noticed that she was eager to get her reaction, since she’s been hearing how easily she looks down on people, but unfortunately, she wasn’t the type of people she bullied so easily. That’s the good part of having money. Here, a lot of her members from the
The moment Angelo was notified of his wife’s situation by his secretary, he rushed over to the hospital, he didn't entirely get the details of what happened until he heard from one of the guards, who he had entrusted his wife’s safety to, about her meeting with his ex.Knowing Marissa's temper, likewise that of Nora's, he already knew how violent the conversation would have been. But Nora knew better than to talk to Maria while she’s pregnant. Everyone knew that Maria was out to get revenge for what he did to her and didn't care about how hurt the others would be.So, why exactly did she confront Maria?He sat beside her on the chair, and stroked her hand that wasn’t taking it, while watching her sleep. For the first time in many years of their marriage, this was the first time he has ever felt something for her.He won’t entirely say that he’s in love with her. But hearing about what happened, he just couldn’t hear the thoughts of losing her so yeah! He cared for her in his own way,
The next morning Maria woke up to a text message from Donovan asking to meet up. Ever since she got the message twenty minutes ago, she had been so excited about the meeting that she was already ten minutes late, for she did not know which dress to wear.She needed to look absolutely good for her son, she had no idea why she couldn’t wait to hear him compliment her. Maybe it has to do with the fact that she has dreamt of this moment. She has been anticipating this meetup, although she was a bit sad that he didn't agree for them to meet at her house.For him only she would be willing to give out her main location, she didn't care about what the consequences will be later. She didn't care about the fact that he might give up her location up to his father, no! No matter what he did, she would never see him differently because he’s her son.So, for the moment she settled with them by meeting at a restaurant where he had booked their appointment. After another good twenty minutes of wastin
“All done, ma’am.” The stylist made it known to Valerie who opened her eyes to see her new look. Early this evening, a guard walked in carrying a shopping bag that contained clothes and shoes for a date.Her date with Donovan.From the look of things it’s obvious that they were going outside, and she didn't know if it was something that was worth being happy about. Afterall, he’s never really going to let her out of his sight once they are outside, so it doesn’t make any difference being here and outside.These past few days had been hell for her, her only escape from loneliness was the library that he had provided that kept her company. It was just her and the guard at the gate, no one else, not including Marco who would come here, at least once each day to check up on her whenever Donovan isn’t going to be coming to see her.At first, she had tagged it out to be a punishment for asking him to let her outside. She has no idea, but if it was truly a punishment he won’t have granted he
After giving her everything!Donovan fussed in anger.There was nothing that he hadn't done to prove to her that he cared for her. He had done everything humanly possible, including promising not to hurt Chad once he found him, as long as she gets to be with him.Yet, she chooses to betray him.That only meant that he hasn’t broken her enough, for her to know that he’s her life. Without him, there’s no reason for her to live, because no one else. Nobody out there would be able to love, cherish and treat her the way he does.After such a long and stressful day today, he had been excited at seeing his baby girl, which was why he had changed his mind to fulfil one of her wishes. He has sent a dress and heels, including a stylist to get her prepared for their date night outside the house.He has actually been willing to go outside with her. She’s the only person that gets him to do all these, he has never gone beyond doing those sort of things for his own wife, yet, she wasn’t grateful.
The moment the door opened and in came the both couples inside her house. Marco carried Jolene up and she wrapped her legs around him while he carried her upstairs, inside her room without breaking the kiss.After their first night together, the both couples had been going at it for days. They had done it at her room, and as well at Marco’s new place where he was opportuned to take her anywhere and anyhow he wanted.They had done it at his bedroom, his kitchen, his balcony. One taste wasn’t enough for both of them, and it felt like they had been bewitched that they couldn’t do without seeing each other a day.Which was why Marco had taken a few weeks from work, knowing fully well that Donovan wasn’t in the country at the moment, and neither did he keep up with him.Most importantly, he had forgotten about the part where Donovan has kept him in charge of Valerie’s well being. All these days, he had skipped checking up on her at his penthouse, nor was he bothered whether the bitch lived
The moment Donovan entered inside the restaurant where he was sure his father was waiting for him, his phone started ringing which was his grandfather calling, he didn't pick the call immediately because he wasn’t ready to face him yet.The only reason he was here was to speak some sense into his fathers head, since it was obvious that the only way to get rid of his mother is by killing her, again. He can’t let that happen, he doesn’t know what his father and grandfather are up to, or any agreement that they had made, but he hoped that his mother would listen to him, and get away from New York as soon as possible to somewhere far away where his grandfather’s influence wasn’t working.Once Angelo saw Donovan coming over to where he was, a big smile rested upon his face but it wasn’t the same for Donovan. Nothing was funny to him, his life was a mess.His family is trying to kill his mother, as if that wasn’t enough, his girl, Valerie, was making him lose his mind everyday.His life ha
He won’t hurt his mother.He won’t allow him to do that.“Tell that to your grandfather, because i know that she won’t tell you this but i tried to warn her to leave. If you know what’s best for your mother, then you tell her to leave if she still wants to live.” Angelo told him, he was sure that Maria nasty ass won’t tell him about him, begging her to once. He didn't want to seem like he’s the bad one here, the truth of the matter is that he didn't want to soak his hands in blood anymore when it had something to do with Maria.He treated her badly.But his anger was that his son chose to believe the words of a stranger rather than that of his own father. It doesn’t matter whatever it is that Maria is to him. He’s the one to make the decision of who is family to him.He didn't like the way Maria was turning him soft, afterall, the lifestyle he lives doesn’t call for it, and with her being here it would only give Donovan a weakness.Maria making herself known to the public did not onl
“What the fuck do you mean that he’s gone missing?!!” Donovan yelled over the phone, that it made a sleeping Valerie jump up in her sleep from how loud he was on the phone.When he saw her do that, he had to leave the room entirely since he didn't want her to hear about this conversation.Apparently, he has woken up to the call to hear that Marco was missing, after he has sent Rio to check up on him going after the reporter that he ordered him to bring to him.Upon hearing the words of one of his men who toned him all he needed to know at Marco’s disappearance. Annoyance wrapped around Donovan’s body, while he was already thinking hard of what and who could pull such nonsense and..“Boss.” Rio’s voice interrupted his thought as well as the phone call, he looked at him then at the figure that was standing at Rio's back that wasn’t looking good.Donovan cut the call before Rio came closer with Chase limping behind him, while getting scared at what the Boss’ reaction would be at him rela
Mature Content!Domestic violence!The breakfast started off fine, with Grandfather acting like he wasn’t the same person that had given him an ultimatum to choose between his mom and the love of his life. Angelo has given Donovan a signal from the very first time he has arrived with Anastasia, not to try to piss off the old man, since he was just looking for a reason to either kill his mom and Valerie .So, he tried his best to act as normal as possible, with his grandfather acting like the good father in law he was, by pushing the best past of the meal to Anastasia’s way.Donovan knows what he’s trying to do, but the old man has no idea that he had full control over his wife. He would be so disappointed to hear what Anastasia has to say, if he goes ahead to talk about Valerie.“So, have you made your decision yet?” Salvatore asked, looking at Donovan who looked at his father for an answer, but he himself didn't know what to say, since he wasn’t expecting his father to talk about th
Anastasia tried zipping up her gown, but she couldn’t reach towards the zipper. She has received word from one the guard that her presence was needed at her husband’s family house, for breakfast. With the talk of everyone being present there, she had made up her mind to as well use the opportunity to talk to her father in law, about how Donovan has been treating her all these while.A month and three days!That’s how long she has stayed here, locked up inside her room all day without any sight of her husband. After he had abandoned her on their wedding night for the girl he claims he’s in love with. He did much worse by taking away her phone, or any devices around the house she found use to reach out to anyone outside.To shut her up for good, but this opportunity was staring right at her face. She had her mind made up to expose Donovan’s ill treatment towards her.What sort of husband abandons his wife for months, on their wedding night, without checking up on her or their son, he h
Matured Content!!“You can leave now, it’s late.” Donovan said to Rio after coming down from the car. After he has successfully transferred to his new place days ago, he hasn’t been in constant contact with Marco, for which the reason was only made known to him.Irrespective of what Marco has done, he didn't want to give off the fact that they were having issues, afterall, Rio and Marco weren’t close like he’s with the three. Rio has always wanted Marco’s position and if Marco doesn’t sit up, and do his job, the position of his second in command could be Rios.“Before that sir..” Rio said, rubbing his hand nervously since he didn't know how he’s going to take the news he’s about to tell him.“What is it?” Donovan turned to face him. He has far more important things to do like cooking dinner for him and babygirl, but he’s been busy lately. So Rio and a new maid that he has assigned, were the ones that handle things over here when he’s away.He knew that he was wrong, so, he would have
Reporter Kim came down from his car, which he packed right outside the fake house that he was currently staying at. The reason for that being the fact that Vanessa, has suggested that after the tantrum he played by releasing that video to the police. It won’t take Donovan’s men much before they track him down. Although, there’s a chance that it would take days, but the chance of it happening had the both of them separate ways. Moreover, Vanessa has this plan, it was a risky one but he couldn’t help but do it for the greater benefit. Vanessa wants him to be kidnapped by Donovan, that way she would be to finally see Donovan and track him down. His locations has been unstable these days, she couldn’t exactly pin his exact location, and she knew the reason for that. After Donovan has betrayed and shot her at her thigh, it was as if something snapped inside her. She hasn’t been able to do anything without it having to do with finding Donovan. Moreover, she was scared. That he figured,
Five days later. Jolene woke up from the bed and ran to puke her guts out in the bathroom, she was not feeling fine ever since yesterday. She’s been having headaches, back pain and tiredness that she couldn’t explain the reason why she was suddenly sick. At first, she has blamed it on her sleepless nights where she has to cry herself to sleep, because she’s been dumped by Marco. After using her and taking her virtue, he down flatly treated her like they didn’t have anything serious going on between them. She couldn’t blame him entirely. Afterall, she never really got back the news that he’s okay after he was dragged away by his boss’ men. She was worried about him for the past few days until her calls couldn’t go through anymore, he had her message left unread without any reply so yes! He’s avoiding her. The young lady could still remember his reaction to her telling him the good news about her father being alive. It was at this point that it felt like the hex that had covere
Marco opened the door and once he saw his father standing outside, a big frown covered his face when he actually saw that it was his father that was knocking all along. Well, it obviously can’t be Jolene, because he had checked out of the hotel that she knew he was staying y at.So, there's no way she can actually get to him, if he’s not the one that makes it possible for her to see him. He was still not over his heartbreak, yet, he also had been lost in thought over the offer Donovan’s mother was offering.She wants Valerie, and with what has gone down in the past few hours that the police arrested Donovan for kidnapping Valerie, there’s no way he will be too stupid to not put more security around her this time around.Donovan might have successfully bribe the police over that video, but he wasn’t stupid enough to let his guard down around her. So, it was going to be much more difficult to get Valerie out this time around.“Don’t tell me that you are still angry, son? Come on, we hav
The next morning, Donovan woke up only to discover that Valerie wasn’t in bed with him. This was the first time that he has slept so late. He has always been a morning person, that sometimes he would wake up by four in the morning and watch her sleep.He sprang up from the bed with force, when he saw that she had ripped the iv that she has been taking since last night. This time, he was scared of what she might have done with him sleeping like a log of wood without actually knowing where she was.He was comforted with the fact that she didn't have the door pass or did she?He went to the nearest door looking for the card, he relaxed when he found it. That confirmed his suspicion about her leaving but he was still concerned about what she was doing right now.Ever since he made the mistake of killing that stylist in her face, yes! It was a mistake that he regrets because actually it wasn’t his intention to make her get scared of him. She’s supposed to love and feel comfortable around h
The moment Donovan entered inside the hotel room that Marco made him know was where his babygirl, Valerie was staying. He heard voices from inside coupled with the scent of antiseptics which made him rush in, fastly only to see Valerie lying on the bed, with a male doctor at her side, cleaning up the wound at her wrist.The moment Rio saw his boss, he tried to talk first and apologize for taking his eyes off Valerie for a minute, which made her opt to hurt herself after waking up to find herself in a different place, without him in sight.She has been panicking for the last twenty minutes and he has been calling him, but he wasn’t picking up.“Get your hands off her!” Donovan seethed in anger, which made the doctor pause his movement without complaining.“I’m sorry, boss.” Rio apologized.“What happened to her?” He asked him, moving along to sit at the edge of the bed to look at Valerie more closely.“I looked away for a second and then she was awake and started to panic when she didn
