The Billionaire's Secret Chapter 75 - The Nightmares
-Eve/Vincent-*Eve*No! I screamed but there was no sound. I watch the scene unfold before me, this can’t be real. This can’t be happening again. No! Ems husband didn’t even stir but I know that I need to get to her. I need to stop Hector from hurting Ems again. No, I will not let him hurt Ems again.I rushed towards Ems's side only to find that there was an invisible wall standing between us and just like before, I couldn’t stop it. I can’t reach her. No, No, No!I said shaking my head as if it would make a difference. As if my screams were loud enough to be heard. But that didn’t stop me because this time around. I will not make the same mistake that I did. I will not be a coward again. It was as if my silent prayer was heard and the invisible wall started to have cracks, so I kept hitting it until my hand bled. I continued screaming until my voice could be heard. Ems husband turned. His attention was not on me and I brace myself as he stomps towards me. I fought with him but

-Eve-The sun was shining brightly when I opened my eyes. My body aches, my headaches, and my body feels so heavy. I looked around me and I was surrounded by white walls, machines beeping, and the smell of antiseptic. Where am I?Just thinking about where I am made my head throb painfully.“Hey, Eve,” A cheerful voice I know so well greeted me. I turned to face the voice and found Garrett’s smiling face. I tried to give him a smile but failed miserably as the throbbing in my head continued. “Does your head hurt?” The concern in his voice reflected on his face. I closed my eyes as I nodded. “Let me get a nurse for you,” he replied, “Vincent,” I heard him say, followed by muffled voices before I heard the door open and then closed. “Hey, baby,” Vincent said as he approached. This was the first time I saw him this disheveled. His hair was all over the place with shadow under his eyes. “How are you?” He asked. He took my hand in his hand and sat on the couch beside the bed.“My hea

-Vincent-“If we want to give him to suffer, then the heaviest sentence is what he needs,” Emmet’s lawyer explained as we looked into what kind of case we could file to make sure that we could keep Ems and Evelyn safe. “Also, with just Ems’s medical records, it’s enough to qualify it for divorce,” he added. “But without Evelyn’s testimony, and unfortunately, we could possibly get up to 10 years depending on the residing judge or jury.” “I want him gone,” Emmet’s voice was as cold as ice but he kept his calm. I am not sure that I could keep my calm if this happened to Evelyn. “We know that the law doesn’t work that way,” the lawyer said. “And we also know that the Bushes have a lot of connections and you know what I mean when I say that. There is a possibility that they contact those connections that would make everything a bit complicated.” “God!” The fury and frustration that he feels reflects on all of us. “If I can’t get him behind bars for a long time right now please go for t

-Vincent-I left Emmet and Garrett in the room that Ems was staying in and returned to where Evelyn was. I found her listening to whatever Brie was saying. I decided to take the couch in silence and let her enjoy her friend's company. It was a good thing that her grandmother had already met me and knew who I was she didn’t panic when I told her that Evelyn was rushed to the hospital and would be discharged later.She asked how Evelyn was, I didn’t really want to lie nor did I want her to worry so I told her that she was fine and was with Brie and Alyana. We didn’t really talk for too long, but she made me promise that I bring her home. “Vincent,” I heard Evelyn calling me just right before I could even take a seat. When I looked in their direction, the three girls were looking at me. I walked straight at her and she leaned in when I was near the bed.“Something wrong?” I asked worried as I looked at Brie and Alyana for answers.“Why am I here?” She asked, “I kept racking my brains

-Eve-Brie and Alyana stayed with me making my grandmother happy and at ease that I was okay and I had people other than her to rely on. She was so happy that she cooked like there was an occasion and we ended up with a lot of food. To make sure that nothing goes to waste, Brie packed some of the dishes, with my grandmother’s approval, and gave them to Tony and her security. I was glad to know that she didn’t see Vincent when she and Alyana delivered the dishes.A lot of things had happened in just a span of twenty-four hours with me and Ems, whom I found out was actually Emmet’s sister, in the hospital. I don’t really know what exactly happened and no one is telling me anything at all. Vincent said that it was for my own health and what the doctor had advised. They said that I had a special kind of amnesia that was caused by a trauma. The doctor advised that this was just temporary and everything would all come back to me. Vincent had been very supportive and very patient about i

-Eve-Things happened so fast that I didn’t have the chance to be scared or react. A black van came by the moment I was out of the car. Several men in black masks came out and pushed me inside the van and all of them were armed. Once inside one of them covered my head with a black cloth back, another tying my hands together, while another tied my feet. I didn’t have the chance to scream, nor did I have any chance to analyze or fight back. I was powerless. All I remember was that the man I thought was an old homeless guy was not homeless. I was surrounded by blackness. No one was talking, no one gave me a hint of what was happening or where they were taking me. I don’t even know any reason why would someone do this to me. First, I don’t have any money if they think that kidnapping me would make them reach. Second, I don’t remember doing anything bad to other people who could hate me so much that they resorted to kidnapping me. Third, I don’t remember having any enemies. Well, exc

-Vincent-A lot of things could change in just one second. And I believe that’s where the saying, “Live your life to the fullest” came from. It was a reminder that nothing was permanent and everything that you have now could be gone by the next. Evelyn was just right there in my passenger seat a while ago. I don’t believe that I was gone for a long time. But here I am staring at her empty seat.I froze, unable to comprehend what exactly happened. Alyana and Brie stood beside me, telling me that everything would be okay, while Tony got to work. After seeing my dashcam recording, Tony decided that this was not something he could handle alone and called for backup. As we sat for more than ten minutes in this uninviting lobby, I began to feel unsettled. “How long do we have to wait?” I asked for the tenth time since the secretary led us into this conference room. “For as long as it takes to figure out exactly who kidnapped your girlfriend. The reason why they did it, and to find out

-Vincent-“What do you mean, Uncle?” I asked my grandmother, I know I had one. But I never knew he was alive. My grandmother rarely talks about him and when she does, she makes it sound like he no longer exists. “He’s your father’s brother. I kept him as far away as I could so he wouldn’t cause any problems. But I guess, he found someone who could give him the access to come back.”I know that there was no use pointing fingers or finding out why I didn’t know that the said Uncle existed until now. All that matters now is finding where Evelyn was. Time is of the essence, afraid of what might happen if we don’t get there on time. “I know where she is,” Tony said interrupting my dangerous thought. “It was a good thing they didn’t remove her bracelet. “Where is she,” my grandmother and I said at the same time. Tony showed us the red dot on his laptop that kept on blinking. I was not familiar with the area but it seemed as though my grandmother knew where it was exactly. “Stay here,”

-Vincent-I was out in the corridor waiting for the doctors to finish their examination on Evelyn. Nothing bad happened to her physically but still, she was shaken up by what she had witnessed.Seeing her the way she was earlier made me want to crush Hector but she beat me to it.I have to admit that it was one of my proudest moments. However, seeing her shaken up the way she did was something I would never want to see again. “Vincent!” I heard Brie call out, but Emmet was already standing in front of me before she could even reach me. “Where is my sister?” The anger from his voice vibrated all over my body. “What the hell happened?” I looked past him and spoke to Brie and Alyana instead of answering Emmet. “Evelyn is here,” I said pointing at the door on my right. “The doctors are checking up on her right now. Would you both be so kind as to stay here until the doctor got out and then stay by her side until I return?” Brie and Alyana nodded. “Tony?” I asked and knew he had no
