“Hello “she muttered with a shaky voice.“Hi…...Is this Caroline Morgan? I don’t have much time to talk. Come to the address that I will give you. I have the information about the key that you are looking for “She heard the man’s voice clearly.What dumfounded her was how he found out about the key or how the hell he found out her phone number. He could barely remember if she had talked to anyone about it. It was really suspicious.“Thinking that the strange man was trying to scam her, she asked.” How did you know that I lost my key? “Caroline asked sternly.“This phone is being traced, just hurry up and come to the address. I really can’t say much to you. “He said and cut off the phone conversation.Zoe looked at her with questions in her eyes.“I suggest that we just go and meet up with him. It is better to follow all the leads instead of regretting later. That was a public place and just anybody could have come across that key. I will tell our men to stand down for at least an hour
Caroline smiled as she looked at Megan. Right there and then, she realized that she really made the right decision to trust Megan. She was resourceful and hard working. With her around, she was sure that she was going to do the impossible to make Morgan Corporation great again.They called the first person on the list, he answered but as soon as he heard that it was the new Morgan corporation calling, he hang up the phone immediately. The second person on the list was someone that she had dealt with before. Caroline introduced herself and told him that she needed him to provide her with finance to purchase the Morgan building, in exchange Morgan corporation will work with him in his future projects. The man said with regret that he didn’t see any future for the new Morgan Corporation and therefore as a business man, he didn’t want to associate with the company. Caroline understood and thanked him because she couldn’t make someone to work with her if they didn’t want to. Even t
“What! how can he accuse you like that? Caroline, I know that you will never lay your finger on anyone. The policeman is probably bored and that is why he was here chasing after nothing. “Megan said furiously but Caroline didn’t care.As long as she knew that she didn’t murder anyone, she was not bothered.“It is okay Megan, he is just doing his job. I will go out to clear my mind. If anything comes up, please let me know. Please make sure that you prepare the project proposal as quickly as you can. I need to take it to the West city latest by the end of the week. We need to be among the first people to submit our work.”“You don’t have to worry boss, I am already working on it “Megan said. Caroline took her bag and then excited her office without knowing that there was another unforgettable tragedy waiting for her.She was about to enter inside her car, when she saw the police man again. She felt that her mood has darkened. There were a lot of things on her mind without the fucking
“Will you really do that for me?” She asked with delicate and vulnerable eyes.“Anything for you my love “Wesley said as he kissed her lips lightly. With him around, she was not afraid of anything. At that moment, Monica and Isabel arrived disrupting their little moment of happiness.“Oh…. bestie, I am so sorry about what happened. Why didn’t you call me? “Monica asked as she hugged her tight on the chest?“Sweetie, I was out of the country for an important assignment and when I came back, I found all your pictures plastered everywhere. who did you offend this time round? Tell me their names and I will ruin them?” Isabel asked as she caressed her cheeks.“Isabel, I have no idea. I haven’t had an easy day lately and things keeps on getting worse. I guess it is my fate to suffer. But I assure you that whoever he is, I am coming for his head.” Her eyes looked dark as she said those words.“And we have your back a hundred percent. All that you have to do is tell us who to beat and we wil
“Even if you get out of jail, no one will ever trust you enough to put his investment in Morgan Corporation. “Heather said with hate.“What did I ever do to you people? Heather, I have never met you and I can’t remember anything to do with you. Why are you insisting on destroying my life? If there is something that you have against me, please tell me and I can apologize. I am really tired of playing these games with you. Believe me that I will only give you this opportunity to come clean. Don’t blame me when I become ruthless in the future.”“How dare you talk to me like that?” Heather snapped irritably then she raised her hands to give her a slap on the cheeks but Caroline caught them midair and twisted her hands on the right side. She screamed with agony not expecting her to be that strong.“You should have thought carefully before trying to raise your filthy hands on me. Since I am a murderer known in the whole world courtesy of the two of you , I have no reason to hold myself back
“As you wish, sir.” the chief of the police said desperately.“And the next time you mess with me, I will kill your wife and kid “Wesley added icily and then exited the office.The moment that he reached the common room, the scene that he met startled him immediately. Caroline was beating Heather like no one else business while Jack watched in desperation.“Caroline, that is enough.” Wesley muttered and Caroline stood up.She stared straight in to his expressionless eyes and asked defiantly “what now! Are you also going to reprimand me for beating the hell out of this shitty woman? I have had enough of her sticking her filthy nose in my business and if you hadn’t stopped me, I was going to kill her ““Come here, Caroline. You are under a lot of pressure. Please let her not trigger you to do something that you will regret. Think about it this way, my efforts of getting you out will go to waste.” Wesley reminded her.At that point, Jack went to Heather’s side and gently helped her up.
Caroline leaned her head on his shoulder enjoying the warmth of his body and the comfort that it gave her. Oh…...it felt so fucking good to finally breathe a sigh of relief.“I will take you home” Wesley said as Caroline pulled out of his arms and then ruffled his hair adorably “Thank you for saving me again and again. What will I do without you?” she appreciated.“You are right, you will never survive without me. Sweetie, please keep out of trouble. Getting you out was not easy “He leaned down and kissed her cheeks then the both of them smiled together.“I am ready to go home now. I miss my baby so much. Just the thought of going to jail and never seeing her ever again was the worst feeling that I have ever had in my life “Caroline added as they exited the police station together.On their way home, Wesley received a call. He looked at his phone and creased his face.“Shit …. something is wrong. Talk to me. “He commanded over the phone while breathing heavily. Caroline could see that
“Oh…. arrogant son of a bitch. No one hurts my baby girl and gets away with it. I will teach you a lesson. Your brother will pay for everything that you have done and when you look at his grave, you will see that I mean business. “Douglas replied while looking at Wesley cheekily.Wesley on hearing his words, found himself getting impatient as he roared “You must be so desperate to try and hurt a defenseless person. You will only do it over my dead body. Chance has me now and you people will never lay your filthy hands on him.”“Are you sure about that?” Douglas said as another man came in the living room.“I have done as you have instructed. Everyone is out and the target is out of the life support machine. He can’t survive in the next 10 minutes. “The man announced as Douglas grinned with excitement. “Finally, that vegetable is out of my life for good. I really gave him time to go on his own but he wouldn’t “Wesley couldn’t believe that a person was capable of killing their own b
No one dared to say anything. The crowd stood with their mouths gaped, sizzling back biting going around in style. Their usual soft hums and whispers was all that could be heard by the trio.When it was all done, Sophia wiped both of their tears and kissed their foreheads.” Just know that you can always count on me for anything that you need, okay. I love you both. ““I love you “Caroline voice cracked as she spoke.“I love you too.” Jack added emotionally.“You didn’t hug me grand ma. Don’t you like me too?” Angel complained interrupting the beautiful bonding.It just dawned on Sophia that she has just become a grandmother in a day.Sophia has never even imagined having a grandchild but here she had one already. What more could she have asked for?During these few days, she has learned a very important lesson. Family was more precious than being a rebellious reject, feeling hollow all the time.“Of course, I haven’t forgotten. I will give you a tight hug. Will you like that, princess
“Really sweetheart …It doesn’t matter what gender it is as long as he has come from you and me. I will love the baby regardless of his gender and this time round they will have a committed father. It was so fucking disgusting to hear people calling me a dead-beat dad all the time. My mission now is to prove them all wrong.”Angel giggled as she stated.” I will have a little baby brother. Thank you so much, Mommy. I will have someone to play my video games with and chat with. I will never be alone again. ““You won’t “Caroline ruffled her hair tenderly. Being a mother and seeing your children happy was the most fulfilling feeling in the world.“May I suggest a name?” Angel continued.“Of course. what name would you like to give your brother?” Wesley asked.“I would like him to be named after my grandfather, Dismas. That name sounds unique and full of love. I can’t wait to spoil him.” she replied with a cute pout on her mouth.“Dismas Storm…… I agree. It is a beautiful name, deserving
Then Isabel also appeared looking lovey dovey with Luke. Caroline suspected that there was a romance going on between them but she has never confirmed it.Now there was no doubt that Isabel had found her better a half.“Look at the newest couple in town!” Caroline commented as she stared at Isabel’s blushing face.“So, when did you two start dating?” Wesley asked dumbfounded. He could have sworn that Luke was not the type to settle down with a woman. He was a man of many ladies.“It just happened and the rest is history “Isabel answered as Luke pulled her away. “You don’t need to explain anything to him, it is none of his business.”Luke turned and whispered in Wesley ears “Don’t spoil this for me, okay. If you do, you can forget about me and start searching for new assistant. “It was precisely because of Wesley that he chose never to commit to any woman. He didn’t want to constantly explain why he was always working late or why he was constantly traveling around the world. He wa
“Why are you crying? You are going to spoil the makeup. Is this bastard still bullying you? Tell me and I will kick his ass right now. Until he proves to me that he has changed, then he is not off the hook yet. I will torment him like hell……. “Grand ma Grace said as he cupped her face in her hands.“It ….it ….is not that, grand ma. “Caroline chocked with tears, her voice cracked with the tumultuous mixture of emotions that she was feeling in her body.“Then what it is, sweetie? Remember, bad mood is not good for the baby, okay. “She probed further. Her face creased with worry.Her chest rose up and down as she tried with difficulty to get the words out of her chest.“I can’t believe that all this people came to my birthday. Am I dreaming?” she finally managed to say.“Oh…. No…. Caro. You better believe it! You have so many people who love and appreciate you. All this people are here because they want to be and because they admire you. Start believing it, okay. ““Really …...Really ….
She went back to sorting the documents. She saw various property deeds and their transfer documents. It turned out that Jack had transferred everything back to her name.Really …. she never even cared about them because she knew that she could make more than what her father left her but she was touched by Jack’s actions.At the bottom of the safety box, there was another envelop. Caroline opened it only to find a will supposedly written by her father. She had seen it the day that she was kidnapped and Wesley ended up saving her.“This was prepared by Heather to scam you. I hope that your lawyer will know what to do with it. Forging a will is a crime and Heather must pay for it .“ Jack wrote.Caroline was overwhelmed with emotions as she leaned on Wesley’s shoulders. With a voice as soft as a whisper she said “Let us go home. “Wesley hugged her tenderly as he whispered “It is finally time for you to be happy. Let us go home now. There is nothing stopping us from being together now. “
The following day was bright and sunny as Caroline and Wesley made their way back in to the Rose Garden apartment. She found Angel waiting for her at home. Angel ran to her mother and wrapped her hands around her neck as she lifted her up in to her embrace. She gently touched Caroline’s forehead before asking with concern “Are you okay, Mommy? “Caroline ruffled her hair delightedly earning an adorable giggle from her.“Better than I have ever been now that I have seen you. Are you bored? We can watch a movie or something. Are you in the mood? “Caroline asked. Although she was tired, she didn’t want to neglect Angel. She had to make some time to be with her.Before Angel could say anything, a certain man spoke. They were so engrossed in their little reunion that they had forgotten that he was standing right beside them.Well…. he couldn’t blame them. It has always been the two of them, he has never been in the picture. Why would he expect more from them?“How could they adore each o
She started feeling like she was slipping away in to darkness. She found herself laying her head on top of her mother’s body.Wesley panicked and started calling her name …” Caroline……. Caro…..can you hear me? I need you to say something. If you are hurting, please let me know. “His voice was but a distance whisper before it all went dark. She was no longer feeling anything. Nothing mattered, her heart didn’t hurt as much as it did before as she fully succumbed to the darkness. It was already dark in the evening when Caroline finally woke up. She was in a hospital and Wesley was sleeping beside her bed. She had no idea how long she had blackened out but the first thing that came on her head was her baby.Wesley woke up immediately he heard her stir “Sweetheart, you are finally awake. Where does it hurt?” He asked while tucking away the hair on her face with a concerned look on his face.“Is the baby still around?” Caroline queried while clutching her stomach.“Yes…the baby is fine
“What are you guys talking about? Caroline was confused. She couldn’t tell when she has ever saved Wesley from any fire. She just got a headache from trying hard to remember. Then her memory was taken back to the day that she had an accident and was taken to the hospital. The doctor said that she was suffering from amnesia and that there were signs of her bone healing. She never could have guessed that she was the one who saved Wesley from fire and ended up sustaining serious injuries. The worst part was that she fucking forgot about it. Everybody knew that it was Paula who saved Wesley and he owed her his life.It just occurred to her that they were talking about the same fire accident that left her with a memory loss years back. The doctor said that she was blocking the trauma that she had suffered and that was why she couldn’t remember.Her eyes clouded with tears as she looked at Wesley “I was the one who saved you? I don’t regret it. I would rather lose my memory a thousand t
“Did you just call me your child? “Caroline asked again with a trembling voice.“Yes…. you are mine and no one has the right to make your life hard “Sophia said, Caroline remained still as mixed emotions ruptured in her heart.It was too good to be true.Sophia will never accept her. The police soon arrived after they were called by Grace’s guards. Heather and Agnes were taken away looking defeated. The only people remaining in the house were now family. Out from nowhere, Paula asked “Can you wire the money to me now? I have done my part “Sophia stood up suddenly as she muttered sternly.” There is no one receiving or giving money here. There will be no easy money for you from now onwards. You have to learn to work hard for the money that you want. Are we clear?”“Mum…it is me! I can’t believe that you are treating me like this. “Paula was aggrieved.She stomped her legs like a little brat like she normally does, hoping that her mother will feel moved but she didn’t.“Yeah…...I know
