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."

It was a mansion that housed the biggest playboy in town. It was bubbling and loud music could be heard.Gaining entrance has been her greatest challenge because of the tight security put in place. She gave out a sigh. She was at saturation point and was breaking down rapidly. Her eyes were teary but she wasn't going to let the tears drop. She has an important mission tonight and if she was to make an headway, she definitely can't have her make up ruined. The last time she was there at the gate, she was turned back because she wasn't on the guest list. She wasn't going to make a good out of herself twice. it has taken four weeks of intensive planning to finally think of something that might work and help her gain entrance to Arthur Lorenzo.She watched with keen interest as different people drove expensive cars that sh

    Bella cunningly detached herself away from the queue she had illegally attached herself to. She had just one mission and that was to find him. She had seen his pictures and know what he looks like. She was now tasked with the responsibility of finding him and making him the ridiculous offer that had been on her mind for weeks now.She was new to the mansion and finding her way around was difficult since she was new to the place but since she jumped the first hurdle, she was certain she would be able to surmount subsequent challenges as well.Each section of the outer space in the mansion was filled with people to the brim. People were laughing, talking and some were dancing to the music being played. She envied them especially the dancers.Had she been in a better situation, she would have love to dance as well. Bella had always enjoyed dancing ever since she was a kid. She especially enjoyed dancing with her father before he passed on. She was a fantastic dancer and would sway the at

    Cold shiver ran down his spine as he took a glance at her again. Though the woman I front of him was not the most beautiful woman he had met, there was no doubt, she was absolutely stunning but she was obviously not in his class.He withdrew himself from her before clearing his throat."Come with me." he wasn't asking, he was ordering. He turned around and headed to only God knows. She stood there without moving an inch. She knew from his demeanor that he had seen through her lies." I'm sure you heard me loud and clear." Arthur said jolting her out of her thoughts. Bella walked behind him slowly with many thoughts in her head. Arthur paused and turned around again facing her."Just so you know, don't think of running about or escaping like you've been doing earlier, I've seen your face and of course it has been captured by the CCTV fixed at one edge of the house." He said pointing to the almost invisible camera. "You can try running and tomorrow you would be on the news for a crime

    Bella's heart broke at the thought that he would asked her such a question. "I'm not lying to you." She looked at him straight in the eye. Sh wouldn't blame him entirely if he was still doubting her. She had lied to him about being a waitress because she didn't want to have to recount how she got in. "I'm telling you the truth, I came here purposely to see you." It's was embarrassing enough recounting how she had stalked him for weeks."Okay fine," he said looking at her so deeply. "Going forward, I'll appreciate if you're honest with me. That would help fix the broken trust between us." Bella nodded. "I promise, I will." She took another bite calm her nervousness."I never forget a face I'd come across before and you," Arthur pointing to her. "Had never crossed my path not even in my dreams. So why are you here to see me?""It's complicated." She said almost choking on her food."Take it easy, we could push our conversation until you're done eating."Bella quickly gulped down the ju

    "You do not have what it takes to appeal to me in a sensual way." He wanted to pick his words carefully but at the same time, he didn't want to be soft on her. "You probably know my spec of women and you darling are not in any way in their league."His word stung her heart but she beared it, she wouldn't be here without a reason and there was no way she was going to tell him the real reason why she willingly to sell her body to him.Arthur was not done yet. "And besides, I get to decide on who becomes my women, my women don't have the luxury of coming to me at will just because they want me" "So you're saying I just conquered your routine?" She asked founding her voice. She was looking him with so emotions written on her face and she saw his eyes flickered. She found him so cute. "I'm saying you took a dangerous and foolish step, I might harm you and nothing will happen you know." He caught her staring at him suspiciously."Yes I know it was dangerous but it was my decision to take t

    Bella's cheeks burned the moment she processed the words that had left Arthur's lips. She shifted forward on the couch and was about to say something to him, anything when he stepped out of the bathroom with a warm towel in his hands. Like a child bewitched by a witch, she watched as he sat beside her, his body letting off a considerable amount of warmth and heating her. He grabbed one of her stockings-clad legs and Bella could only grimace at the cheap stockings she had on. They were already letting out hair, but a woman in her situation can only afford so much. But she didn't care. She had won and Arthur was going to take her offer. She was about to ask what he was about to do when she watched in horror as he tore her stockings off and placed the warm wet rag underneath her feet."Ahh!" Bella let out a satisfied breath the moment the soothing effect of the massage took effect."I see that you like it. Well, Arthur Lorenzo's woman doesn't go about with bruised feet. You should take

    "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
