The night wasn't going well for Jolene, not after watching the news headlines that announced the death of Valerie and Chad. It sounds awkward that her room caught fire, and was found burnt to death a few miles in the city. She couldn't sleep, neither did she take her medications. Maybe it could have helped her sleep. But no matter how many times she tried closing her eyes, the tears that streamed down her face made her realize that it still hurt. Yet, no matter how many times she cried Valerie isn't coming back and neither will Chad either. They are dead. She just couldn't wait for the day to break so she could visit the murderer, the man that has killed them both. The man that hurt Tommy too. It wasn't Vanessa after all. She could have made things worse if she had gone ahead to report Vanessa, to the station for being the primary one suspect of her sister's death. But it was someone else all along. Her father hasn't said anything yet to her nor her mother after coming back f
The loud scream coming from Jolene’s room was enough to wake the whole neighborhood up, had it been the house wasn’t built a few miles away from the general population.Mr.Harris sat up from his bed, with his wife who had already swung the door open as they hurried up to their daughter's room.“Jolene.” Mrs.Harris called, fear evident in her eyes. She was scared for her daughter's safety, and this wasn't about the part of her husband telling her that there was more the eyes could see on Valerie's case. This was about a mother genuinely worried for her daughter, Valerie’s death was taking a toll on their daughter and there was nothing that they could do to help it.She pushed open the door to see Jolene on the floor, broken pieces of the mirror on the floor with a few drops of blood, made both couples know that this has gotten out of hand.“Jolene, you are hurt.” Mrs.Harris carefully helped her stand up from the floor, before grabbing the first aid that was in her room while her husba
“This is the maid's quarters, and your own room. You are not to trespass into the main building without orders from me or the Don himself, every of your activity starts and ends here, is that correct?” Grace ordered. Looking at the young lady who has been added to the new collection of the maids in the house, asper the Don's orders. Valerie ignored her while scanning the room. She has a little bed, a wall clock and a little bathroom and toilet, then to conclude the furnishing, a little table was at the edge of the bed. The dull gray colors of the wall reminded her of her pathetic and dull life. Whoever that decorated this place wasn't loved at home, it screamed loneliness and whatnot. It was more of a prison than an actual room with just a single window with bar irons caging. But regardless, she was thankful that she was out of the dungeon. It was more comfortable being here than being there, the metallic smell of blood that hasn't escaped her mind having stayed there for two wee
The sound of electricity zapping could be heard in the room, as Mr.B stood on the other end of the room watching Agent Riley being tortured to get the information needed out of her.A see through glass that divided the room, was the only thing that separated him from the others that were not doing a good job at getting what he wants.Pandora's location.Riley is the only person that has it, and the other men he had sent out to tail her telling him about the burner phone and her destroying its SIM, was enough proof for him that she's the one who's going to lead them to her.She has lied about not knowing anything, and that's what has led to her demise. Seeing as she wasn't questioned further about Pandora, made her think that they were off her case.“Where is she?!” Draco’s thunderous voice echoed inside the room, Mr. B has given him the task of getting the information out of her, since he seemed to be the second best at doing this after Pandora.Riley knows that there's no way out of
It's been two days since the incident at his house, with the suspect behind the death of Valerie and Chad breaking into his house, inside his daughter's room to harass her. Mr.Harris didn't make it known to anyone about what has happened, since he has no idea who to trust anymore. The police system is corrupt seeing as the commissioner is taking bribes to shut the mouth of the minorities. The only luck that Valerie didn't have was the fact that she didn't have a family, someone to insist and push through with the investigation rather than her case being closed and concluded just because she was a nobody. He was able to come to the forensics to get her information, and identify the body at the mortuary. It was indeed hers and Chad's. The state will host her funeral in two days time since she has no family members. No one to back her up. But for the past two days, Mr. Harris noticed that he's been followed. An instinct of his he chooses to ignore until his stalker makes the mistake
“V…Vanessa “ He called. It ought to be a dream, because he looked around just to be so sure that he wasn't seeing a ghost, and when he heard her speak he knew that this was happening. “Hello, Mr.Harris.” Vanessa said, not looking around in case of anyone trailing her because it was safe here. It was just the two of them. She has led him here in case of anyone sighting her. That made Mr.Harris know that he had the wrong assumption, it was her all long. Heck! He has shot at her because he had mistaken her for that bastard. “You..are alive? How? The system showed you were dead, what's going on, Vanessa?” He asked, already tired of being led astray with what he thought was the truth. “I know you have a lot of questions to ask, but trust me this is not the right time for that.” She said, tugging down her hoodie and also rubbed her arm because she felt cold suddenly. Mr.Harris scoffed at her words, how would she know what is the right question to ask? He thought. Looking at her from
“Wipe everything clean, and make sure not any spot is found on it, am i clear?” Grace commanded Valerie, it was like the sixth time that she was here washing the dishes that were used for breakfast at the main house.She didn't know what Grace's deal was with her, anyone could easily see that she was being maltreated here, because the other maids had been done with their duty this morning and already had their breakfast. She was the only one that was here in the kitchen rewashing clean plates, over and over again because she was ordered to.Valerie could feel her stomach growling from hunger, the only thing inside her system was the bacon that she had yesterday afternoon before she was handed over to Grace to give a tour of the house, and her quarters.Not only was she hungry, she would tug at the short gown that she wore every seconds. She had no idea how any of the other maids could work in such short clothing.It barely covered her ass, which was apparently larger than the rest of
“You are one interesting woman, Kitten” Donovan felt her body tense up and shudder against his, what he would do to see her face right now. He has always lived off the fear of people, but he didn't know why hers would be more satisfying for him right now. On Valerie's part, she felt like the ground should open up and swallow her whole, because what is this? He wasn't inside this room when she came in here, so how did he get in here without her knowing? Is he angry at her for trespassing into his room? He didn't seem like he was angry at her with the compromising position that they were in. Valerie has always been called a prude for not having fancied the other sex, but that doesn't mean that she had no idea what was poking at her under her butt. It was biggg! Even though she was aware of Tommy's feelings for her, she hasn't actually seen him as a man but with Donovan it was different. It was hard not to see him as one. She gulped in fear, and when it went overdrive was when she
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
Once the call ended, Marco felt his heart breaking into pieces, and it wasn’t about the fact that Donovan’s words are still ringing in his head about who Jolene was going to choose once her father is awake. The reality was already playing right in front of his face that he couldn’t bear it himself to pretend to her anymore.He didn't want to pretend that he’s happy hearing that her father, the same man who wants him that was on the verge of death, had luckily escaped death to come haunt his life again.Just hearing her overexcited voice about her father being awake, confirmed everything for him, because just like at the end of the day he would choose his family, his father over anything and anyone else, Jolene would still choose her own family.He would choose his father over her, and that’s not selfishness. That’s the right thing to do, and he couldn't blame her if she does the same because he too is guilty of the same crime. It was at this point that Marco’s eyes were opened to his
