I sat gazing at my beautiful wife who was sleeping soundly on the bed, she rolled on the bed causing her pink see-through nightie to go up a bit exposing her pink taut areola. I gasped as I turned away from her beautiful body. Every time I look at her is just like the first time I met her at the club, I could never be tired of her.
It has been two weeks since we got a tip from the taxi driver who had driven Deborah to the cemetery. Apparently, he had seen her face and phoned the police but still yet, there wasn't any news from her. It seems like she has disappeared underground ever since then.
It gives me sleepless nights whenever I remember that she was still out there at large. I know she loves me and wouldn't do any harm to me but I'm more scared for my wife and my little princesses. I won't be able to survive if anyth
TWO YEARS LATER“ Mom, do you have any ideas what is happening today?”I turned to watch Nora who had asked me that question as I tried to tie her belt. They were running late for school.“ No, darling. What's the occasion today? Do you have a party at school?” I asked her feigning ignorance as I turned to watch Nadia who was trying to get into her uniform of a purple mini gown with a belt in the middle.“ Nadia be fast, else you'll be late for school” I scolded her as she nodded at me before getting on with her dress.“ But mom, are you really sure you don't know what today is about?” Nadia questioned m
I stood opposite the school where Michael and Nina's children were and watched them with a dark sunshade shading me from the sun. A tall tree covers me from the view of passers-by as I wait for the door to open while I go over my plan in my head.It was simple, pick up the children and take them to the cabin where I had booked ahead for my plans. I can't believe that after so many years of waiting, I am finally going to have my revenge.I laughed heartily as I looked around cautiously to see if anyone had noticed my presence while I kept checking the tiny silver watch on my wrist which had aged a lot. It was a birthday present from Michael when I was twenty. I smile fondly at the memories.“ Just wait a bit, Michael. We are finally going to be together. I know yo
“ Mr. Thompson, I'm thinking of investing about a million dollars in your new casino business but I'm afraid of the risk involved in it. Is it legal? I mean most casino businesses are illegal and I wouldn't want my money to go to waste. It's hard to earn a fortune these days you know, and_______”“ Mr. Gonzales” I called to the bald head man who was miles away from me trying to make him stop with his blabbering as I was getting irritated. He was a Spanish business tycoon who had quite a fortune but didn't know how to invest his money. He was just on the news a while back because of his eighteen years old, fifth wife who had squandered his money on a designer outfit that cost a thousand dollars.“ I'm not forcing you to invest in my company but I'd like you to remember that if you don't invest your fortun
A Month LaterI sat in front of the television in the sitting room but I wasn't really seeing anything. I couldn't stop thinking about my kids ever since we found out that Deborah took them. I couldn't help being worried about them. Is Deborah taking care of them? Have they eaten?A lot of things are going through my mind but there's no one to talk to. Michael had been busy these days, especially after he found out that Deborah had tricked him.He couldn't stop blaming himself for not being vigilant and I couldn't add to his self-loathing by telling him about the calls I've been receiving and that from Deborah.I could still remember her last call which was a few weeks ago after we came back from the hos
“ Joey, come on. Please stop crying. You've got to be strong for your godmother” I called gently to my son who was crying silently on his bed as I stood in his doorway.“ But mom, I'm missing Nora and Nadia so much. I don't know what's going on with them. And who the fuck is Deborah? I so hate her” He screamed at me as he turned to watch me from the doorway trying to dab at his now teary eyes.I strolled to pull him close as I let him sobbed on my shoulder, ignoring him using the swear word. Any other day, I would have scolded him but today, I decided to let him be since he was hurting so badly.“ It's okay son, momma understands. I promise we'll find them soon but please you've got to be strong for them. You know Nora and Nadia wouldn't like to
I paced around my office in anticipation, ever since our last call with Lillian, we couldn't get in touch with her. She had refused to answer any of our calls and had sent it to her voicemail.“ Any luck with her yet?” I turned to ask Danny who was trying her phone again. I could see the worry etch his brows as sweat streamed down his face. I couldn't help being annoyed with myself that I had caused everything. I regretted ever bringing him and Lillian into this mess. Hell, I regretted ever risking my wife and children's life. If only I never met Deborah then none of this would have happened.“ Not yet. She just won't pick up even after leaving her a dozen messages. She's just so stubborn especially when it comes to Nina” Danny exclaimed running his hands through his hair in frustration as he paced to and fro
We all sat in the courtroom looking around while I held onto my daughter's hands, Michael was on my right holding on to Nadia's hands while Nora was beside me. They had recovered from most of their bruises but we were all still going to therapy every Tuesday. Even Lillian had joined us this time, I couldn't help regretting dragging her into my mess.I stared into the whitewashed room of the courtroom but I wasn't really seeing anything. All I could remember was the night when I felt I was going to die and Michael had saved me the second time ...“ What is she doing?” I turned to stare at Lillian who gazed was fixed on Deborah, who was checking her gun to see if she had enough ammunition in them wearing a light smile on her face. I turned away from the face of the woman that I had come to despise, but couldn't do
“ Sir, these are the files you requested for” Aurora's voice called out to me as I turned to watch her standing in the doorway holding on to the files in her hands.“ Good. Come on in” I told her with a broad smile on my face as I motioned her over.Aurora dropped the file on my table while I flipped through the pages looking for a particular entry. It was the budget for the Thompson's Hospital. Apparently, Dad found out the money budgeted for the hospital was too much and requested that we reduce it which was why I'm in a meeting with Doctor Damien. The director of the Thompson's Hospital.“ So, Doctor Damien. We've cut down the budget to fifty million dollars, hope that will be enough?” I asked him, I could see his lips curled up in a fr
FIFTEEN YEARS LATER DEBORAH I stepped out of the prison yard with a new change of clothes, clutching onto my purse and accessories, the lady at the reception had handed me in my hands. I shield my eyes from the harsh sun with the purse in my hands, it felt so good to be finally free. “ Woah! The weather is so good today” I exclaimed excitedly, taking a swirl around in excitement. “ Yes, you can say that again” I turned to see Xavier gazing up at me with so much love and affection in his eyes that I couldn't help shielding away shyly. I didn't hear him come to stand behind me
A MONTH LATERSANTORINI, GREECE“ So girls, here is our house” I heard Michael calling to the girls with his hands stretched to the property in front of us as soon as we stepped down from the car.“Do you like it?” Michael asked the girls who were giggling beside him while I was on the phone with Lillian.“ Of course, dad. Did you buy it? It's so beautiful” Nora exclaimed excitedly as she ran up the stairs to the front porch.“ Look Nora, it has a beach” Nadia's giggling voice called to her sister who came bubbling down to see the beach which was at the back of the house.
“ Good morning, Mrs. Thompson” Lexa greeted me the next morning as I stepped out of the elevator carrying my brown Christian Dior bag with leopard skin, it was a gift from Michael during my birthday.“ Good morning, Lexa. How was your night? Hope you slept well?” I told her with a smile on my face as I made my way into my office.“ It was fine, thank you, ma'am” Lexa replied as she came to stand in front of my table after I had sat down and dropped my bag on the table.Kicking out my brown suede heel which matched with the bag and complimented my outfit which was a brown mini skirt, brown blazer, and a pink camisole, I let the purple velvet rug caress my feet as I turned to stare at Lexa.
