"Run." Patricia shouted.

The two ladies sprinted but Amelia was a bit slow because of her camera bag.

Tyler ran after them and got to Amelia first, he drew her to himself, snarling. "come here bitch."

"Let go of me." Amelia resisted but she was perfectly wrapped up in Tyler's hands, knowing her wriggles were futile, she dug her teeth into his skin.

"Damn you bitch." Tyler cussed, not letting her go.

Seeing that Amelia had been caught, Patricia went to her rescue. She kicked Tyler in the abdomen sending waves of immeasurable pains through his entire body.

"Ouch." Tyler let out a loud groan, he was forced to let go of Amelia and held on to his hurting groin.

"Let's go." Patricia urged, pulling away terrified Amelia who was still very much out of it.

"I'll kill y'all." Tyler cussed as he watched them ran out of his grasp. He painstakingly hit the strapped wristwatch he had on. "Security breach, over. I repeat, security breach, over. Two ladies, one is with a camera bag. She must be a r

    Patricia signalled, "This is where I get off."Amelia pulled the brakes of the car, bringing it to a halt."We have just one day to the engagement, I want to see this interview buzzing the internet tomorrow. Everything has to go smoothly." Patricia stepped out of the car.Amelia nodded before revving the engine back to life. "We jumped the most difficult hurdle, I'll fulfil my part of the bargain.""Alright, thanks for the ride." Amelia zoomed off leaving Patricia to walk down to her building. Once she gained entrance, she went directly into her office. The lights were on as she had instructed. "My time is far spent." She muttered.She heard her phone ringing, she checked and it was Lawrence. She hissed briefly."Hello Lawrence.""You got me worried, where are you?""I'm still at work.""It's late, we promised to meet at Arthur's place tonight.""I know right, I'm sorry I dozed off but I'll be there soon.""You should go easy with work.""That's why I'm taking a day off tomorrow.""Th

    The quartet sat at the dinning table, eating their dinner. All preoccupied with their own thoughts.Arthur was picking on his food, he kept on thinking about the recent happenings. Not only couldn't he reach Edward, he was certain Amelia was the one that reached out to James, moreover he is not on a very good term with James, he wondered what kind of information he might have passed to her. Arthur sighed without realizing it arousing the attention of others on the table."Hey bro, you seem far away. Is there anything I could help with?" Lawrence said breaking the icy atmosphere."It nothing to worry about, I'll be fine after getting some rest."

Arthur replied giving a small smile.Curious, Lawrence glanced around, "Wh

    Arthur whose voice was gruffy became alert at once when he heard that familiar voice, "Edward, is that you?" He almost screamed out, sleep escaping his eyes."Yes its me, boss." Edward's tone was faint."What happened? I tried reaching you all to no avail.""Fargo happened, I fell into his trap and got stabbed.""Stabbed? That son of a bitch." Arthur cussed aloud causing bella to change her sleeping position. "You sound so weak, where are you right now?"." He asked in almost a whisper."I'll send you my location, there is someone I want you to meet.""Do that, I'm on my way." Arthur ended the call and rushed out of bed at once, accidentally hitting his foot against the stool. "Ouch." He felt the his foot hurt, he held on to it but his whines woke Bella up in the process."What is wrong with your foot?""It's nothing, go back to sleep." Arthur managed to ignore his hurting foot and started putting on some clothes."Where are you going to?""Edward just called.""Edward?" Bella asked wit

    Bella felt a gentle tap on her shoulder prompting her to open her eyes. "Hi," her voice was gruffy."You slept here?" Patricia asked puzzled."I must have dozed off while waiting for Arthur." Bella replied."Where did he ran off to this early morning?""He said he has some business to take care of. How was your night? Hope you were able to get some comfortable sleep?" She yawned as she stood up from the sofa."Of course, all thanks to you.""Good morning Bella." Lawrence greeted and walked towards the duo."Good morning Lawrence." Bella replied with a smile."Where is Arthur? We are about to take our leave.""We?" Patricia raised an eyebrow."Is there a problem?""I intend spending my day with Bella, tomorrow is the party remember?""While it's true the party is tomorrow, everything is ready for the engagement besides I think we've imposed on them enough, let's go home and come back tomorrow for the party.""You know how much I worked hard to get a day off from work, right?"

    Patricia walked in with two glasses of milk, "sorry for keeping you waiting, here you go." She gave Patricia a glass while she took the second glass for herself."Thank you." Bella took it from her and took a sip."You should drink more to stop your stomach from growling." Patricia teased as she took a sip from her cup as well."Thanks for your reminder." Bella took another another sip."Which of these would you be wearing for the after party?" Patricia asked pointing at the dresses."Hmmmmm, I think I'll go with this one." She took out the alluring black gown from the lot."Just my recommendation, black would definitely look good on you tomorrow.""You think so?""Trust my judgement, you sure would be needing it to compliment your beauty.""Thank you." Bella yawned."Didn't you get enough sleep while waiting for Arthur?""I sure did but suddenly I feel sleepy.""Then you should have more of this before you sleep." Patricia lifted the glass to her mouth urging bella to drink more.Bel

    Patricia clicked on it and it was Fargo contact. "Let's move to the next stage." She quickly called the number."Hello." Fargo hulky voice came up."Hi Fargo.""Who is this?""I'm someone with a proposal you can't say no to." Patricia replied."You wouldn't disclose your identity yet you claim to have a proposal I can't refuse." Fargo scoffed. "There are rare proposals I can't say no, you'd better mean what you say.""I don't do empty words.""What is this proposal you have for me then?" Fargo asked."I'll give you someone you have your eyes on.""If you don't have any tangible to say, I'll warn you never to call my phone ever again." Fargo made an attempt to end the call"Arthur's Lorenzo's woman." Patricia proposed quickly. "I'll let you have her."There was a brief silence over the phone, Fargo cleared his throat, "Why would you do that?" His words becoming more audible."Now you seem interested, my guess was right after all. You're interested in her. I told you, you can't say no."

He had just checked Edward into an hospital and watched him get attended to, he only left after he saw Edward asleep.Walking into the sitting room, he looked exhausted and most importantly famished. He made himself comfortable on the sofa, letting out a soft groan while Ms Jenkins approached him."Brunch is served, would you like to eat now?" Ms Jenkins asked politely."Oh please, I would appreciate that." He forcefully dragged himself out of the sofa. "Where is Bella?" He asking looking around. "Tell her to come join me." He added without waiting for a response and headed to the dinning."She is sleeping." Patricia replied forcing Arthur to stopped on his tracks. She walked down the stairs and wearing a smile on her face as she walked towards him, swinging her hips. Arthur stood transfixed as she he watched her approached him, she was soon standing in front of him showing her cleavage and her red hot lip. Everything about he

    *Six months ago*Carla walked briskly into the General Manager's office, her heavy pants echoed throughout the room. "What's going on sir?" Her voice for shaky. "Are the rumours true." She asked as she held her sweaty hands together silently praying."I'm sorry Carla but we all should brace ourselves.""My career just started off, what am I suppose to do?""Carla, we're in dire straits. The station is folding, we have to salvage what is left of it."Her expression tightened, "Is there any way to salvage it?""The only option on the table is a merger with another company," The general manager replied, his tone reflecting the gravity of the situation.Carla's eyes flickered with concern. "A merger? Do we have any other choices?"The general manager sighed, "It's the only lifeline we've got. We either merge or face closure.""Do we have potential buyers sir?""They are potential offers on the table, I'm currently looking into their offers.""Before we dive into this merger, what about th

"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.

    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?

    "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
