After everything pessimistic Arthur had been through, there is almost nothing that he is surprised by until naive Bella came by with an offer to him her virginity to save her only brother from cancer! Who would have imagined that the biggest in town would instead turn around and countered Bella's proposal to become his convenient bride.
View MoreArthur was devastated at the news of Matilda's death, he had blamed himself for her death and took what was left of her ashes and placed it in a columbarium.Bella stood by his side, mourning with him and helping him through that phase.The police launched a full investigation, arresting Patricia and Amelia. Arthur's gathered evidences were very instrumental in their arrest.Soon, Patricia and Amelia were arraigned for trial. Bella had pleaded for a chance to talk to Patricia at the final trial. "Why do you have to hurt us so much? I treated like you a sister and James adorned you.""Tell me why I should be nice to you filthy pieces of trash?" Patricia asked showing no remorse. "You stole Arthur from me, I regretted not poisoning you to death when I had the chance."Bella bursted into another round of fresh tears, "you're hopeless.""Take her away."Arthur pulled Bella to himself. "Everything would be fine, I'm certain justice would prevail, let's go in and hear the final verdict." He
Fargo took off the glasses and smashed it to pieces disconnecting the live video. "What do you think you're doing?" He asked as he rained slaps on Arthur's face.Arthur groaned loudly in pain. "I'm unveiling who you truly are to the world.""I'll kill you." Fargo said angrily as he sent Arthur crashing on the ground with another blow.Arthur spat blood. "You shouldn't have touched my family."Fargo took out a pocket knife, "I'll let you experience pain and beg me to kill you.""The moment you kill me, your entire life will be over. No matter where you go, you'll always have to be on the run.""I've killed once, you think I'll be afraid to do again?" Fargo asked."The choice is yours; turn yourself to the police and face the law or be on the run all your life like a rat.""We would see about that, I'm going to take my time with you." Fargo replied. He grabbed a small bottle and a syringe and injected it Arthur s body causing him to feel numb and weak. "Remember, nobody is coming to save
Arthur laid Patricia on the sofa, he quickly arranged for some bodyguards to take over and secure the place while he proceeded with his next step of action.He called a number on his phone. "Hello, Carla?""Yes, who is..." Carla immediately recognized the voice. "Arthur Lorenzo?""Yes it's me.""To whom do I owe this pleasure?" Carla asked in surprise."I thought you would be interested in being a real reporter this time.""Hmmmmm, I don't think I'm ready, I resigned from my job to take a break.""I know you resigned and that is the more reason you're the perfect fit for this job. Enough break, Carla. It's time to get back to work.""What are you talking about? I already said I'm not going to be anyone prawn.""You tell me, how does being n independent famous reporter sound?""What do you have for me?" Carla asked, taking interest."We are going live, Carla." Arthur announced. "Two of my friends are being hostage by a drug baron who happens to be an acquaintance of Amelia.""What?" Ca
"oh my god," Bella gasped as she saw james lying motionlessly on the bed. "What happened to you?" She held his hand and kissed his forehead.Arthur stood right beside her, watching the one grid reunion. "There is something you need to know." He began. Rubbing off the tears from her face, "what is it?""I need you to be brave, Bel." Arthur grabbed her shoulder. "Can you spill it out already?"Arthur took a deep breathe before spilling the beans, "The doctors said James doesn't have much time with us."Bella tried to speak while processing the words that had fallen out of Arthur's mouth but found herself staggering, all thanks to Arthur's firm grip on her, she would have fallen to the ground."He was doing well before he left, what happened?""Unfortunately his health relapsed, we have to prepare ourselves for the worst." Arthur replied."That bitch, what has she done to my brother?" Bella cussed and yelled.Arthur drew her closer, "I'll take care of everything."Bella scoffed. "How w
Bella was lost in thoughts about what to do with the pregnancy when she heard a soft but persistent knock on the door.She wasn't expecting anyone, besides it was already late but at the thought of James, she quickly ran and opened the door without asking who it was.Her reaction was emotionless but she could swear her heart had beaten a thousand times in a spilt second while looking at the figure in front of her.The two stared at each other intensely without any spoken words and increased breathing, she had believed he would never appear in front of her again and to think he was actually in her house for the very first time made it difficult for her to know what to do.A quick glance at his handsome face revealed how pale he looked and her heart broke. "What are you doing here?" She asked, afraid he wouldn't say a thing and remained at the door."We found him." Arthur said in almost a whisper."You found James?" Her eyes lit up with surprise and excitement.Arthur found himself unab
"Tie them up.""Why did you stop us from chasing after them, boss." Hugo asked."Use your brain, James is going to die soon. I've been thinking of ways to dispose him without having to stain my hands, who knew luck would shine on me?"Hugo nodded his head, "but what are we going to do about them?""We are going to use them to negotiate with Arthur. We should get some money off them to compensate for all of our troubles.""Do you think he is going to give in?""Of course, he won't leave them behind." Fargo replied."Are you giving on the lady?""Of course, of what use is she when she is penniless?" Fargo replied. "There are plenty of beauties scattered round the world."***Arthur drove on a very high speed as he headed to the location sent to his phone by Matteo."Damn you Fargo, damn you Patricia." He cussed out. "I'll rip you both into pieces, I promise."Looking at the map on his phone, he could tell he was very close to his destination. He looked up and saw a house in sight. It wa
Edward drove behind Fargo and his cohorts maintaining a reasonable distance not to arouse any form of suspicion. He followed carefully determined not to let them out of his sight.Taking a glance at his dead phone, he quickly plugged his phone. "Why would you go off at such a crucial time?" Worry and anger etched on his face.Edward followed then until he watched them drove into a large compound with a gigantic gate. There was no way to see a thing going on in the building, he needed to find a way to sneak in.He parked his car and got out, not forgetting to mask his face. He took a stroll while taking a stroll round the environment of the building.Luckily he found a lower fence and jumped over it, making his way into the house. He needed to find out where they were taking James to.While trying to navigate his way into the main building, Edward saw Matteo drove in with Tyler as his chauffeur.His eyes flinched, "am I seeing wrong? What is Matteo and Tyler doing here?" He asked puzzl
"Hello Fargo." Matteo said in a hulky voice."To whom do I owe this honour?""I thought about the proposal you made the last time and decided to invest, can we meet?""Now?" Fargo asked."What better time, if not now?"Fargo was in the process of transporting James to his house and it wasn't convenient at the moment but he thought briefly about how urgent he needed to finance his products."Hello, are you there?""Yea, I am." Fargo replied. "Hope you don't mind if I propose hosting you at my place?""Of course not, thanks for the honour." Matteo replied, happy he took the bait."I'm glad you didn't decline, I'll text you my address.""I'm waiting, see you soon."Matteo called Arthur back. "We are meeting at his place, I'll send you the location as soon as I get it.""If Fargo is heading to his place, then I'm sure that is Edward's destination.""I'll keep filling you in.""Thank you," Arthur paused for a second. "Please, be careful.""I will."***Patricia decided to head home after p
Edward continued to observe the activities going on the seventh floor. Initially, he was stuck between going after Patricia or finding more more about James situation.He opted for the latter seeing how heavily it was guarded. He began to think of how he could find a chance to sneak it and gather more Intel.After observing for some time, he saw Fargo walked out whispering to one of his surbodinates.The mere appearance of Fargo fuelled his anger as he felt it rose to it peak, he molded his fist but knew deep within him charging at Fargo that instant meant suicide.He needed Fargo to be all by himself and a chance presented itself when he saw only Fargo entered the elevator by himself without any of his men."Finally, a chance to pay you back." A big smile engulfed Edward's face, he decided he was going to take Fargo out. He couldn't bear to see him roam about when he had almost snuffed life out of him.Edward knew since Fargo was making use the elevator, he would need to be super fa
