Held in her grasp was the man who had started becoming quite the headache for Shawty.His green eyes stared at her as though they were piercing through her very slowly.“You passed. I’m impressed,"he said. “Now can you let go. I can’t really breathe with your hand on my neck.”She released him and returned the fork he stole from the diner back into her pocket. She watched with apathy as he rubbed his throat, trying to soothe it.“Explain now.” She demanded.“I was trying to test your skills. Wanted to be sure you were alert and ready.”“That wasn’t very hard. You were very obvious with your spying.” Shawty said she wanted to slap him and call him an idiot. If it had been anyone else, another assassin who was playing her role as his bodyguard, chances are they would have killed him without hesitation.“I’m hurt. I thought all the spy movies I watched as a kid would come in handy.” He said with a twinkle in his eye. He was a bit she had to admit.“So who was the kid? Your brother?” He as
There was a slight hesitation from Shawty’s end, Frederick could hear her breath, the same breath that had turned him on last night. It was shocking that it had been barely a day and he had so many surprises and excitement.“Are you sure that’s a good idea?” she finally said.“Positive. Also could you come over to the hotel for dinner. You won’t regret it.”“I’ll think about it.” She cut the call.Frederick dropped his phone on the bed, he used the hotel phone to start making plans.What are you doing? This was a perfect opportunity to kill him.She debated that with herself inwardly as she walked home. She wondered why she hadn’t totally agreed to it. A simple date with him, especially one that was private would have made it easier for her to kill him. She could have asked him to walk her home afterwards while he, not minding the distance, would have agreed to and then she could have easily killed him with her poisoned lipstick.“I have to do it.” She told herself.She scrolled throug
The next morning, Shawty woke up to the sunrise sneaking to her view from her hotel window. Waking up today wasn’t horrible as usual but she was horribly jet lagged and needed a bit more rest. Frederick had offered to let her stay in his suite with him but she refused. She needed to start making boundaries. It would make it easier when it was time to kill him. She got up groggily, scratching her back with a groan. She was tired from the journey but she had work to do. Her phone beeped and she glanced at it. It was a call from Frederick. She was now officially his bodyguard so she couldn’t ignore him anymore. “Good morning, gorgeous,” he said from the other side. He was buttoning up his white shirt and getting ready for the day. “Why are you calling so early?” She deadpanned. It was just 6 in the morning. She wiped her face and entered the bathroom to start cleaning up.“Well, I sent you a copy of the schedule last night but you seemed too tired to open it,” he laughed as he buttoned
“I knew you were a bottom dweller but this just cemente it,” Shawty taunted. “Heinrich.”In the same toilet with her was a bald man of Germanic heritage, from his strong hawkish nose to his blue eyes, he was twirling a blade in between his fingers. Heinrich was also a hired assassin for Zerodyne. He was despised as a real sadist for his penchant on the use of knives. “I saw you when I boarded the plane. I figured Leonard wanted to talk to me. Following standard procedure, I knew you would be here.”“You took too long.” Heinrich said, as he used the knife to file his nails.“I could have ignored you or cut your tail since we entered the airport, throughout the flight or even the hotel. Now talk. Did Leonard send you?”“He did. I was already heading to America to complete a job. He told me to watch out for you.” He said simply, still twirling his knife, he moved closer to her till they were just breaths apart.“What does he want to know?”It was at this moment that he slammed the knife
Shawty looked ahead to where he was pointing at, She suddenly felt a wet moist on her cheek. She turned her head and looked at him He just pecked her ch-eek?She blushed and tried to cover it up by acting indifferent.He winked at her."Mr Fredrick, respect yourself. I am here as your bodyguard to protect you" She said coldly."Really? You didn't know that when you seduced me and took my virginity away?" He asked with an aggrieved face, like a little wife bullied by her husband.Shawty choke."You… what are you saying!?" She stuttered. She felt so embarrassed that she wished the ground would open and swallow her in. If an outsider overheard him they would think she is a pervert not knowing that he is the shameless one."What? Am I lying?" Fredrick asked with an aggrieved look."Hmph!" She won't talk to him anymore.Ring! Ring! Ring!Her phone suddenly rang.She looked at it and saw that the number was familiar.She stood up and said to him"I will take this call" She walked away with
She walked into the room Frederick told her was her room. The room was big, bigger than the room in her house and it was painted in dusty blue color making it lovely and attractive. It suited her taste.She walked to the cloakroom inside the room, it was empty, no clothes there, it was understandable since he is a male and he doesn't have female clothes.She closed the door, and sat down on the bed. She took out her phone from her bag and decided to order clothes or pajamas online then she would go tomorrow morning to shop herself.She ordered the clothes.Ding!A message came into the phone.She opened the message app and saw that it was one of her close subordinates, Clara who texted her.Clara: "Boss, Are you there?"Shawty: "Right " She replied drylyClara: Someone issued a mission and a large amount of money was offered, should I accept it?Shawty: No, I am busy for now.Clara: Okay, I understand I will reject it, Where did you go to ?Shawty: "America" Her reply was plain not exp
The dish slipped in her hand again, It fell and broke into pieces. She pouted and looked at the broken pieces on the floor with an aggrieved look. 'They are bullying her' She turned her head to the sink and wanted to make use of the towel. She hit her leg and suddenly swayed backward. Once she falls down she would fall in where the broken dishes were and it would probably cause more injuries to her back. She closed her eyes and accepted her fate.She fell but she didn't feel any pain, she opened her eyes and turned her head and saw that it was Fredrick who was holding her in his arms. She would have been badly wounded if not because he made it in time."Thank…" She stopped her words when she saw his face looked pale."Are you alright ?" She asked."I'm fi…. " He gasped in pain before he could finish his words.Shawty immediately stood up from his arms , she saw that his legs were standing on where the broken dishes were. She could not imagine how badly his legs were now.Her expressi
Shawty frowned and turned her head to look at who the person was. She saw that it was that attendant."What do you mean by this?" She asked in displeasure."That gown is very expensive, if you make a mistake and spoil it can you pay the money?" The attendant asked arrogantly."How much is the expensive?" "It is very very expensive" She raised an eyebrow "Is this the way you treat people?" She asked."Of course, if you can afford it I'll treat you better " The attendant said and looked at her with disdain in her eyes."Oh" Shawty said.So she thought she was poor?So funny.If the money she owned could be considered her as poor then the attendant would be as poor as church rat."I want this gown" A haughty voice said behind them.The attendant turned her head and looked back. Her attitude change fast, "Miss Sherry you are here" She smiled flatteringly, her face was full of smile.It was a clear difference between how she treated Shawty and the way she treated Sherry."I want this gow
The pain she expected did not come. She opened her eyes closely and saw that Simon was on the floor, holding his legs. His face was twisted in pain. Shawty raised her head and looked up. She saw that the person who actually shot him was the man who came in earlier and tied her. She frowned, wondering why he was helping her.I hope it is not like she was escaping from the fry pan to the fire instead."Who are you? You are not Elliot," Simon said in a confident tone.The man, ‘Elliott, just smiled. "Did you not message me to come here? You still don’t know or recognize me?" The man asked with a smile.Simon was stunned; he pointed his finger tremblingly and said, "YYou are Fredrick? How come?" He asked in shock.Shawty was also shocked; no wonder she felt that the man was awfully familiar, so it was actually Fredrick, just like she expected. She did not expect him to really come.Fredrick just smiled."You cannot escape; before you are able to leave here, my men will kill you," Simon sa
She was so shocked that she could not even speak. She was silent for a while before she finally regained her composure."Uncle Simon?" She called hesitantly. She still felt that she was not seeing things properly.Simon walked toward her with a smile."Why are you here? Did you hear about what happened to me when I came here? You should not; you will be risking your life by doing this," Shawty said with a concerned expression on her face.Simon chuckled. "You are really funny; you have not been able to escape, but you are thinking about me." He said it with an amused expression.Shawty narrowed her eyes. She was connecting the dots, but she still felt that it was impossible. She shook her head. "You are the one behind all of these?" She asked hesitantly.Simon smiled. "You are very smart, just like your mother," He said with a smile.Shawty shook her head in disbelief. It was not that she did not think about it when he walked into the room. But everything and how he behaved whenever s
Five days later.Shawty looked around the room, feeling bored. She was expecting Leonard to come; maybe she would finally meet the mastermind today. All they wanted was for her to regain consciousness before they could finally move on to the next mission.The room door opened, and a man walked in. Shawty guessed that it was one of the bodyguards, but she had never seen him before.He walked toward her.Shawty felt he was familiar, but his face does not look familiar. But he really was familiar. She does not know why she felt that way. She suddenly thought of Fredrick. She shook her head. ‘It seems she was missing Fredrick so much that all men now looked like him to her, She thought.The room door also opened, and Leonard walked in. Shawty looked at him and said, "You cannot even at least knock on the door; what if I am changing or something?" She said, feeling angry.Leonard glanced at her briefly and asked, "What are you trying to hide? I have seen it when you were young a lot of tim
Fredrick walked out of the company.Ring!!He dipped his hand into his pocket and brought out his phone. He glanced at the screen and saw that the caller was Chris. He answered the call and put the phone on his ear."Hello" "Come to my house if you are less busy; my men figured out something," Chris said immediately.Okay," Fredrick replied, getting into the car.The driver started the car and drove out of the company. He drove into Chris’s garage. Fredrick opened the car door and got out of the car.He walked towards his house, opened the door, and walked into the house. He looked around and only saw his second in command; he did not see Chris."He is in his study room," his second in command said to him when he saw him.Fredrick nodded. He climbed the staircase and walked towards his study room. He opened the door and walked into the study room. Chris was sitting down in front of his laptop.Fredrick looked at him and sat down beside him. "What is so urgent that you asked me to com
Even her suicide was fake. She knew that the people behind everything would save her. She was killing two birds with one stone: first, she would be able to figure out the mastermind behind all of this, and second, she would be able to erase everything. Her pregnancy was totally unexpected; she did not even know that she was pregnant. She only knew that the mastermind wanted her; she did not expect to cover so many things after days of being here.She used her suicide as a trap; she was guessing if the mastermind would save her. If he did not, then Jay was already prepared to save her too. When the mastermind saved her, she knew everything before she passed out. That was why she also discovered that getting to Leonard’s den was not that simple. The mastermind is the one behind Leonard, and Leonard also confirmed her guess. When he was talking with Luke, Fredrick's stepbrother He mentioned the hidden boss, whom she never even knew or met since she was there. She met a lot of people but
Leonard was shocked, as expected; he turned his head and looked at Luke. "What? He resumed with the company already?" He asked.Luke nodded and said, Yes, I am just coming back from there. He is back at the company," He said.Leonard looked at him. "You should leave before he suspects you and traces you to here now," He said with an anxious expression.Luke nodded. Even though he was unwilling to leave, he still had to because Leonard might order his bodyguards to throw him out of the house, and he did not want that kind of situation.He turned around and walked out of the room. Leonard was silently looking at the unconscious woman."I know you have regained your consciousness. There is no need for you to pretend anymore. I am not playing those games with you anymore," He said with a stern expression.The woman on the bed did not move. She was still in the same position, like he was not talking to her."Are you still pretending? I will call the doctor to remove the tumor in your stoma
Fredrick walked into his office, looking thoughtful. Even though Luke had already told him that it was a mistake, he did not want to believe that there was such a mistake. He dipped his hand into his pocket, took out his phone from his pocket, and dialed Chris’s number.The phone rang for a while before he finally answered it on the third ring. "Hello, are you already missing me? Is that why you are calling me just a few hours after leaving my place?" Chris asked."I think Luke is suspicious; help me follow his movements. He might know something," He said in a serious voice.Okay, on it!" Chris immediately responded with a serious expression. Once it was time to be serious, he was always serious.Fredrick immediately hung up after this. Chris was furious on the other side and almost banged the table angrily. This ungrateful man did not even tell him thank you and just instructed him like he was his surrogate. He is so annoying.Luke walked into the house, looked around, and saw that t
He frowned, irritated that someone was not minding his business. The female employee raised her head and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Drake."President!" She cried out in a joyful voice. She felt like it had been years since the president left. He would never let her do this or lick his shoe like Luke demanded. She was very happy when she saw him.Luke froze. He was in disbelief and raised his head slowly. He was stunned when his eyes met Fredrick’s cold eyes."You …" His eyes widened in shock when he saw him, like he saw a ghost.Fredrick smiled. "I am back," he said.Luke asked dumbfoundedly, "Why are you back?"He asked. "Are you not supposed to be heartbroken about..." He immediately stopped talking when he realized that he was about to spill the beans.Fredrick raised an eyebrow. What happened to Shawty was not known by the public; only Chris knows it, so why was he acting this way?"What do you mean? Heartbroken? About what?" He asked him, searching his eyes for answers.
The employees immediately walked towards their various posts. Luke lifted his head up haughtily; he was very happy to see that the employees were all listening to him. The employees were only listening to him because they did not know who would win the fight between the two of them, maybe Fredrick or Luke, so they had to obey whatever so they would not be implicated. They never thought about the fact that if Fredrick instructed them to do something and Luke instructed them to do something else, who would they listen to? They did not think about that.He walked toward the elevator. He stopped as he was about to enter the presidential elevator. He looked at the presidential elevator with a greedy look. The elevator will soon be his. The elevator has a fingerprint scanner that works only with Fredrick and anyone else he wants to allow to use it. If not, he would have taken the elevator as his from the very beginning. But it is just a little time; with the elevator, he will be able to use
