“Oh …...I am so fucked up. Please come back, Wesley. I can’t bear to lie any more to Angel. “Caroline thought silently while looking at her daughter.“Baby, you like asking so many questions. Well, I am not nervous. I just have a lot in my head and I am trying to sort them out in my mind. I do it a lot lately and I am so surprised that you noticed. ““I always know everything about you, Mommy. In that case, you should relax a bit. Don’t force things, they will fall in to place by themselves. our teacher taught us that when we want to learn something new, we should go slow on it “ Angel was right anyway. She was dealing with so many things and it was best for her to take it slow. Otherwise, she will go insane.“I love you baby, your words mean a lot to me “she pulled her in to her arms and then kissed her hair tenderly.“When you feel down, I am here for you, okay. Angel loves you so much. I made a promise to daddy that I will protect you and this is exactly what I am doing. You have
“Don’t believe them. You will get in to trouble “Megan warned desperately.However, she knew that Caroline was someone who was decisive. Once she has decided on something, there was no turning back for her“I am not afraid of them. what I don’t want is for them to hurt Wesley when I am capable of helping. If they are trying to trick me, then I will comfort myself that I tried my best. Hold on for the time being for the marketing director position, I will try to find someone as soon as possible. If I can’t find the right person, then I will handle that department responsibilities myself.”As soon as she finished talking, she took her bag and quickly excited the office” Call me in case of anything “she shouted back.“Is she really coming? I feel so disgusted with this place. I can’t stand the smelly room. My face and hands are swollen because of the beating that we got from that man. Mum, I can’t stand staying here any minute longer. Please do something. “Paula shouted.Despite their nu
“Caroline, you are trading on a thin line. His wealth belongs to me and I don’t know how you managed to acquire them but they are the one thing that I will fight for to the end. You will regret ever crossing me, bitch,” Paula said as she tried to stand up. Her knees were already hurting.“Did I say that you can stand up? officer, hand me the charges that I brought against them. one more mistake on your part and I will sign the papers. You will be kissing the bright sunlight goodbye. I am not ‘in the mood of joking with the two of you right now.”“Alright, we will do as you say but please get us out of here “Jane said looking genuinely afraid. Paula on the other hand couldn’t stop the tears from rolling on her face.To her surprise, the tears on her face were real this time round.Her mission was accomplished. All that she wanted was to intimidate them and make them afraid so that they can tell her the truth about Wesley’s whereabouts. That was all that she cared about. Anyway, she wo
“Gosh…...where do we start? I have completely no idea where she might have gone. I didn’t even think about asking her” Monica started panicking immediately. She was angry because Caroline didn’t show up for their date that she forgot to watch out for her safety.“I will call her right away and ask. She mustn’t have gone too far.” she added.When she dialed her number, she was unavailable. Now they had no idea on how to find out where she was and with whom. The most important question here was if at all she was going to meet Wesley.“Its’s okay. Let us not panic, it will be of no use to us or Caroline. First, let us watch the audio recording and try to make sense of what Caro is trying to tell us. She must have been suspicious for her to make this recording. At least, she is not all that dumb.” Isabel commented.“You are right …why am I this foolish? I didn’t even think about watching the audio recording. Alright, let us watch it together “she replied.In a jiffy, Monica unlocked her
The worst thing was that she couldn’t even call anyone for help because she was stupid enough to leave her phone in her car.She screamed but no one could hear her voice. She could feel the car going in circles until she started feeling dizzy . This time round Paula have succeeded in killing her. There was no hope for her ever coming out of this alive. No one knew where she was. She had refused to pick up Jack’s phone calls and she wasn’t even sure if he would notice that she was missing. Everything was against her like always.At long last the car stopped after driving for like 2 or 3 hours. She was quickly released from the boot and she could finally breath some fresh air. The place was chilly and windy. It felt like they were in a forested area. The perfect place to murder someone without being noticed.The blind fold was removed from her head but still she couldn’t see the faces of the people who have abducted her well. All that she saw was a big butterfly tattoo on the exposed
The man’s eyes were sharp even in the dark.“It is okay, honey. I am here now. Are you hurt? It was so stupid of you to come out here all alone. Why are you so gullible sometimes? “That voice and that scent made her calm as she buried her head deep in to his neck. Nothing else mattered except for the fact that she had been saved and that she was going to see her beloved daughter again.All of a sudden it became dark and she lost consciousness with the thought of the man holding her still lingering in her subconscious mind. She wished that she could talk to him and ask him so many things but she couldn’t.When she woke up, it was already daylight. She could feel the smell of disinfectant on her nostrils. she was definitely in the hospital. These past few days she had been a friend of the hospital so much. It fucking made her feel sorry for herself.“What happened to me?” she asked while scanning around the room.” where the hell is Wesley?”“Ma’am, thanks God that you are awake. Why
In her head she knew that the short-tempered Monica would have already caused chaos.“What the fucking hell was I supposed to do for you when we have been running mad all night long searching for you everywhere? Do you know what it was like not finding you anywhere?” Monica continued to air out her frustrations not realizing that she had missed something.“Calm down, Monica. Can’t you see that she is not doing well? What were we supposed to do for you? “Isabel asked.“I asked Monica to hand over the audio to the police if I failed to come back soon. How far have the police gone?” Caroline enquired to their surprise.“That audio had nothing. It was just a conversation about you giving some people a benefit of doubt. What was so special about that? Anyway, we had no time to waste because we were focused on looking for you.” Monica said“Why are you this careless? You only read the second audio. Didn’t you see that they were two? I was giving you a clue that if I go missing, you should
“I placed them in jail so that they can learn from their mistakes but I was surprised when I was told that you took them out. I couldn’t figure out the reason why but when Monica called and told me what happened, I knew that it had to be them messing with you. ““I will understand if you are mad at me for going to look for Wesley.” she stated.“I can’t say that I am not. It hurts because you are the one that I love but I have to understand that he was part of your past and it is only normal for you to want to help him for your daughter’s sake, right?” Was this guy asking indirectly if she was still in love with Wesley?“Of course, it was for Angel’s sake. I can’t bear to see her hurt because something happened to her father and I couldn’t do anything. Let us not talk about that any more. Have you stayed here for long? I am sorry I didn’t notice your presence.” Caroline said in order to change the subject. She didn’t want to dwell so much about Wesley especially when she knew that she
“Hi sweethearts …” Monica greeted as soon as she hugged Caroline and Angel at the same time. “I have been calling you like forever. I was worried about you being near that animal, Jack. What happened?” she asked with concern.In fact, she had called so many times and no one picked up.“It is along story, bestie. I will tell you when I have time but now, I need you to watch over Angel because I need to do something very important. I promise that I will tell you when I come back. “She hurriedly said and kissed Angel’s forehead.“Stay with aunt Monica, I will be right back. Please don’t give her trouble , baby. Are we clear? “Angel nodded obediently and then went to keep herself busy.Monica looked at Caroline’s retrieving body and thought that something was odd. so, she called Isabel to come over so that they would be there for her. She was acting mysteriously for her liking.Upon reaching the Morgan mansion, Caroline found new security guards. At first sight, they didn’t even recogn
“Don’t worry, go and handle your affairs. I have my own plans “Caroline replied and then Wesley pulled her in to his arms and hugged her tight. The hardest thing that he had to do was to leave her side again at this difficult point in her life.However, Winnie was troublesome.“Take good care of yourself and call me if you need anything.”Wesley instructed as he hurriedly turned and excited the house. When the car roared in to life and drove out of the house, she found herself feeling lonely. Everything that Jack did to her came back haunting her. It was bearable when Wesley was around.Even if Wesley hurt her in the past but he wa showing that he was changing.Right after he had left, Megan came to visit.Caroline invited her in to the living room. She knew that they had a lot to discuss about and she couldn’t wait to hear what she has for her. It has been depressing not knowing what Jack was up to.“Caro, are you feeling better now? I heard that you were taking a nap. Are you still
Caroline woke up feeling out of place. The house wasn’t hers, it wasn’t even decorated according to her taste and preferences. She hated the color yellow. Everywhere that she turned, the ugly theme was staring back at her.This house screamed of everything about Paula. Anyway, it didn’t matter, the end results was what was important. She needed the house for a short while and then later on she could leave it behind. Besides her, Angel was coiled in a deep sleep. She caressed her cheeks and then climbed out of the bed. The moment that she reached the living room, a mouthwatering aroma of food caught her nose and she couldn’t help but follow the scent. Her stomach growled loudly, It has been a while since she had a proper meal. When she reached the kitchen, Wesley was there consumed in his cooking. She had never seen him doing something that nice before. He was always cold and unapproachable. He was very grumpy and he never even knew what was in her kitchen.Oh…. people really do c
“Well…focus on your life now. I will search around and see who is trying to frame you, okay. I know some of my contacts who can help me with this matter. Cheer up, son. “Agnes said as she hugged his head just like she had done when he was little “I love you so much and I can never do something that will intentionally hurt you ““I know, mother. Please forgive me. You have always been there for me and I have no right to mistrust you. I guess seeing Caroline leaving with Wesley got in to my head. But why can’t things return to the way that they used to be? we used to live a simple life. No secrets, betrayals, revenge or anything similar. I miss those old good days.”“You will work hard to forget her. Please promise me. She will never be good for you. You have lived a very sad life and you deserve someone who will love you for who you are. You need someone who will compensate for all those years that you were alone. “Agnes stated.Jack only stared at her and then kissed the back of her h
Jack started thinking seriously about the conversation that she just had with Caroline. There was someone trying to twist the situation and make him look like he was the murderer. Was there someone who hated the Morgan family?His eyes turned dark immediately as he asked coldly “Who could be behind Dismas’s death?”A thought came in to his head. Hurriedly, he took his coat and went outside only to see Caroline getting away in Wesley’s car. How conveniently for her? She couldn’t even wait for the dust to settle on their divorce before running back to Wesley .However, now he had an important issue to talk about with his mother. She was the one who convinced him that he should take his revenge on Dismas. Was she the one responsible for that man’s death? What he knew was that Agnes hated Dismas with passion.“Hello Son. You remembered me?” Agnes greeted as soon as Jack made his way into her house.” she hadn’t seen him for quite some time and she was eager for him to tell her what has
“Uncle Jack…you promised me that you won’t hurt my Mommy. I regret ever calling you my second dad. Don’t ever come near me or my Mommy again. You don’t deserve her. “Angel said as she held on to her mother’s hands tight.“Angel, sweetie. I have nothing against you. I swear that I have always loved you and I would have loved for us to get to know each other more. Please, don’t look at me like that. If you don’t believe me, you can still stay back with me. I will spoil you so much” Jack honestly liked Angel“I will never leave my mommy’s side. she is the only one who has ever loved me not you. If you did love me then you wouldn’t have done what you did. The moment that you hurt my mommy, you did the same to me. Good bye, my mother and I will just be fine. See you never. “Angel stated and then turned to her mother “let us go, I don’t want to stay in this house anymore. I don’t like this man, he is mean. ““Goodbye, Jack” Caroline said one last time.As Caroline hurried outside the door,
“But you said that you will wait for me and I was going to keep my word, Jack. A person cannot control how her heart feels or who her heart wants but I was willing to change that because I wanted a stable life for my child. It is a shame that you didn’t believe in me and took me as your enemy when I knew nothing of what my father did to you. ““My God …you could have approached me and we would have worked out this together, Jack. What went wrong?”“Don’t you dare pretend with me. Everything went wrong the moment you appeared back in to my life. I am tired of giving love that will never be reciprocated.” he snapped.“I loved you in my own way but what hurts me the most is that you have brought an innocent child in to this mess. Jack, I trusted you with her. why did you do this to me?”“I really love the kid and she honestly have nothing to do with this but I couldn’t accept that I didn’t have you by myside. Caroline, we have been married for a couple of months now and you haven’t tri
Wesley has been with her the whole night. Not even her very own husband cared to come and ask about her health. She wanted to snap at him but she just couldn’t forget that he came through for her over and over again.Even if he doesn’t want to admit it, she knows that he was the one who saved her on the day that she was about to be killed in the forest. she can never forget his familiar scent and voice“It is nice for you to support me but this is my problem. If you don’t mind, I would like to handle it on my own. You have already wasted enough of your time taking care of me when you really didn’t have to” she said as Monica helped her pack her bagsIt was just enough for him that she was no longer looking at him with hate.“Alright …I will leave you to it then but remember that if you have any problem, call me. I will just be a phone call away “he kissed her cheeks and then hurriedly left the hospital.A while later, she had been discharged and she headed straight away to the mansi
Caroline’s face became pale “were you spying on me? Just when I thought that you are beginning to seem like a reasonable person, you go and do this to me? You two have disappointed me. I would have appreciated it if you would have just told me the truth.”“I did it in good faith because I never trusted Jack from the day your father was killed. He has been behaving oddly for a person whose wife has faced two major tragedies. If I were in his place, I would have taken a bullet for you but instead he ran away leaving you alone. Don’t you think that is odd?” Wesley asked.“And I think that the two-shooting incidence are related. I have been investigating it secretly and the ballistic report show that the same type of guns was used. So, it must be the same person responsible for the two shooting. May be, he or she hired he same people. “Zoe explained.“I am sorry to say this but why would someone assassinate your father and then immediately Jack schemes to takes his company? I might not h
