The plane landed at Bora Bora. I brought us here for her honeymoon, just to fulfill all righteousness. She was just like other girls, she’s like her. All selfish and materialistic. She had no idea where we were. I kept it a secret so I could surprise her.
She got out of bed dressed in jean shorts and a crop top. I had the flight attendant get her that.
“Hey.” she said approaching me.
Why is she so clingy?
“Hey.” I whispered coldly and she responded with a smile before walking the opposite way. I decided to ignore her and watch her come to me like a puppy like othe

Meanwhile at Zimmer Inc “Donovan…” Ross said in a stern, warning tone. “I have it done.” Donovan assured as he slid the documents out of the envelope before handing over to Ross. Ross examined them before passing it over to his mother. “In the event of the death of Douglas Zimmer and his inherent heir, Ace Zimmer, the properties and the whole of the Zimmer empire have been inherited by his younger legitimate son, Ross Zimmer.” Brittany, his mother read out loud. “Hell yeah!” She commented, a huge smile on his face. “I believe my job here is done.” “Is it?” Ross grinned devilishly. “I did all you asked.” “Chillax Donovan…” Ross drawled before he and his mother burst into fits of laughter. “I was only pulling your legs.” He chuckled. “Oh, great.” Donovan rolled his eyes as he packed up to leave. “You still stand by not getting paid for your services and troubles?” “Yes.” He nodded for clarity. “Very well then. Thanks Donovan.” “You’re welcome.” He walked out of the office.
“He gave me fucking ten grand to continue with my life!” She guffawed as she recounted all that happened to Ace.“What the hell are you expected to do with ten grand?”“Live a quiet meager life with my mother.” She said and they erupted in laughter.Donovan shook his head.“Well, now that we’ve established the fact that you’re on your way to Maine…”“Yeah?”“Now we can really start our investigation.” Aiden smiled in glee.“What’s the first step then?” Audrey asked before sipping on the bottle of water.“You said it was a car wreck, right?”“Yeah.”
“Hey.” Ellie said to Liz who was seated on the couch opposite Caden.“Hey El.”“Have you seen the car?”“Yeah, just sprayed it. It needs about thirty minutes before I can pull any prints off it.”“Great.”“So what’s the diagnosis.”Ace, Audrey and Donovan showed up to the living too .“Hey.”“Welcome back guys.”“He
“Don’t you dare make any sudden movement.” A gruff voice said to Donovan as the cold metal of the gun touched the skin of his neck, sending cold shivers down his spine. “Hands up!”He did as told.“Don’t hurt me, is it money? I’ve got tons of it.” He tried so hard to hide the quiver in his voice.The gun pressed even deeper into his neck as the masked man let out a mocking guffaw.“Move psyche.” He nudged him towards the van, a few meters away from his car.“My phone…” He said and the masked man picked it up before pushing him into the van.
“I think he’s alive!” One of the samaritans screamed as he pressed his nose against the cracked windshield of Ross’s car trying to decipher if the occupants were still alive.“An ambulance is on the way.” His wife shouted.In a few minutes, the loud siren blasted from hundreds of meters away. The paramedics alighted, ready to get to work. They finally pulled the car’s door open before successfully getting Ross and his girl out of the vehicle.“Both unconscious.” A paramedic said to her partner as they wheeled them into the ambulance, unhooking the stretcher as they got in.“Oxygen mask.” She called out and they were all strapped up.
“Here, put this on.” Dustin handed Donovan a mask which the latter hurriedly pulled on. Dustin followed suit.“Ever shot a gun before?” He asked as he slipped the key into the ignition. He turned it causing the vehicle to roar to life.“Yeah.”“Really?” He looked a tidbit shocked.“Yeah. You seem surprised.”“I am.”“I once worked at a shooting range.”“Oh that explains it.”“Pretty much.”&nb
September, 1996."I'm pregnant." She said, making him freeze in his tracks."Who’s the dad?" He asked, crossing his fingers as his heartbeat was becoming rapid."You." She deadpanned.No. No. No. No. No. No“This isn’t happening right now. She couldn't be pregnant. This is a huge mistake.” He thought."How far are you?" He asked."Two months." she replied, quite nonchalant about it.He was engaged to the woman of his ‘dreams’ and Candace was his girlfriend.“How did I ever make this mistake?” He thought."You have to get rid of it." He said, panic evident in his voice."Not a chance." She said as her nostrils flared, signifying that she was annoyed. S

"You have to get rid of it." He said, panic evident in his voice."Not a chance." She said as her nostrils flared, signifying that she was annoyed. She got up from her chair abruptly, making a sharp scraping sound as she turned on her heels and was on her way to the door. "Candy..." was all he could say before he was cut by the sound of the door being slammed in his face. She slammed the door and stormed out of his office. “I don’t need him or anyone else.” She got her document
Ana’s POVAs I headed to the cafeteria, I was searching for my money in my bag. I wasn't paying attention and I bumped into someone. I felt something cold spill on my shoes and the hem of my jeans. I looked down at it and saw that it was soda. I groaned and looked at the culprit. Ace.He was the hottest guy in this school. His muscles were taut and I could see his abs through his shirt. He had a sharp jaw and a small, perfect nose. "Are you done checking me out?” He sassed. "You wish I was checking you out, haven't you heard of watching your way while walking?” "At least a sorry will do."I said.“Wait, you bumped into me. Therefore, you don't have the right to sass at me." He said which made me even more furious. "Excuse me, you walked right into me, spilled your freaking drink on my shoe and you are telling me it’s all my fault? You’ve got some nerve motherfucker!" I yelled at him. “What?” He looked taken aback.“What?” I frowned further.“What’s wrong?” He asked tenderly.“

Dustin swerved onto the dirt road before speeding ahead, causing a cliff of dust behind the truck.“Stay put.” He said to Donovan as he parked the truck right abeg before walking towards a few guys.“Hey brother.” One of the men acknowledged Dustin.“How’s it going man?” He responded and exchanged handshakes with all three men, except the one on his knees, a bag over his head, his hands and legs; bound.”“Is that him?” Dustin asked the leader.“You tell me.” He gruffed, giving him the go-ahead to take the paper bag off. Dustin did and stare

Ace“Dude look, she is here.” Philip said as Jennifer walked through the hallways with her minions. She spared me a wink and walked past. She's been throwing herself at me since 11th grade till now. I was a senior and so was she, Philip and my other friends. We were a typical highschool boy crew with sleek cars, messy hairstyles, a top notch fashion sense, power and daddy’s money. We were used to girls throwing themselves at us. We were the-“Look she's leaving.” He said, dragging me from my train of thoughts.He was referring to Anastasia, as she was about to walk past and I bumped into her making her books fall as she bent down to pick them up.“Sorry, I'm so sorry.” She said sympathetically which amused me as I barked out my laughter. “Watch where you are going next time.” I said, making her gape at me. I knew why she was surprised. My clique never says sorry or acts nicely. We were always seen as a bunch of jerks. Word gets around.“Sorry.” she said once again. Well that was
I paced my room thinking of what to do. There was no excuse to give Dad. I was expected to get married in two months and finally take over what’s rightfully mine.I was beyond ready for the job’s stress and responsibility. But the marriage part, not so much.I was fine with my numerous one night stands. That lifestyle best suited me. It was also a bonus knowing I didn’t even need to speak to have them head over heels for me. My looks and appearance already seal the deal way ahead.I could easily date any girl of my choice but they are far too cheap for my taste. I wanted a girl who wouldn't drool over me. One who could stand her ground and not follow my every whim like a hopeless puppy.I poured myself a shot of vodka and downed it immediately, feeling the cool liquid burn down my throat. My hair was disheveled and I looked like crap. There was a stubble on my face and I had small bags under my eyes.I couldn’t process my thoughts at the moment but one stood out. I couldn’t lose it al
“Hi.” Marilyn said, walking up to him to pick him up. He was awake and still in a sour mood.“Leave me alone, I want my mama.” He said kicking and trying to resist her. “Okay baby, if you come out for breakfast and take a bath then I might get her back.” She lied. “Really?” he said as his eyes widened with excitement. She smiled and nodded. “Yay!” he yelled as he jumped up and down, then raised his hand signaling to her to pick him up which she did and closed the door. “So what would you like to eat?” She asked. “Pancakes and maple syrup please.” He smiled, quite excited. “Aye Aye little man!” She said with a mock salute, earning a fit of laughter from him. “My name is Ace. What's yours?” he asked. “Marilyn.” She said, smiling. “Marie.” He grinned cheekily.“Marie?” She chuckled.“I'm gonna call you Marie.” He said smiling, as he avoided her eyes. He was shy, Marilyn liked him already. “I like it.” She said making a blush creep up his cheek. He was so adorable. He had all o
