The Substitute Bride Escape?
" So what are you up to this time ? " Chloe asked , sipping the last dreg of her cocktail, her expression calm a complete contrast to how she was stewing inside . Itching to shoot him in the head if granted the opportunity." My , my , my , it hurts me so much that you think I have something sinister planned behind this dinner. " Chloe dropped her glass on the table , leaned back on her chair crossing her leg over the other , wagging her hands she sneered ," What can I say Theddy, once bitten twice shy " Theddy chuckled lightly and nodded , he couldn't help but notice her change of attitude. Something is definitely off with her tonight .The Chloe that he has come to know these past few days hates to breathe the same air he breathes , heck ! She doesn't even feel comfortable whenever he wants to have dinner with her .She is too stubborn for her own good , someone that would rather starve than eat what he gives her .But Chloe sitting in front of him is calm , her words short and

Two days Earlier" Boss, we have a new Intel from Italy. Underground Boss assistant will be here in two days " Henry Theddy's right-hand man whispered into his ears.He risked it interrupting their dinner but it's worth it considering what the stand to lose if eventually they came and his boss is unprepared to meet them Theddy's ears perked up when he heard the news and his brows furrowed in a frown but he quickly dismissed it so as not to draw Chloe's attention.' That woman is quick-witted ' he thought , giving her a squinted gaze but the nonchalant lady sipped her cocktail with poise ." I will be with you soon " he whispered back , waving his aide away for the latter to nod and walk away in quick long strides.Theddy adjusted his suit and winked at her " let's call it a night Mrs Reigns, thanks for gracing me with your presen… "But she didn't let him finish and cutted him halfway It's not like I have a choice " Chloe interrupted , earning her a questioning raised brow from

When Theddy was told that his guests had arrived he was expecting to see one man and two bodyguards with one car .But what he was seeing now supersedes his thoughts. Rows of luxury cars worth millions lined up in front of his base and from it came out dozens of able-bodied men .Their well draped suits did not do justice to their well toned muscles that their suit couldn't hide . Any strain from them their suits will rip apart .Taking in on the sight before him , Theddy couldn't help but feel a hot sweat trickle down his back , beads of sweat began forming on his forehead.One of the bodyguards , a tall blonde man walked to the white luxury car and opened it , Theddy's eyes twinkled with anticipation to see who his anonymous boss sent .But seconds rolled by and the occupant of the car didn't step out , Theddy couldn't hide his annoyance any longer just when he was about to retort two pairs of black customized leather shoes touched the cold tarmac.Theddy glances from his shoes upwa

Back to presentWhen Chloe heard the gunshots, she did not know whether to be excited or scared, as her mind was thrown into a frenzy.' Excited that maybe Liam has finally found where she was being held and had finally come to rescue her ' ' Or maybe one of Theddy's men has had enough of his low treatments and revolted against him ' her heartbeat increased rapidly at the thought of this and the possibility.If Theddy's men were to revolt there would be a lot of bloodshed and Chloe is not sure if she would want that . Although such will create room for her escape or doom, she's not sure of what will be the outcome and who will be the winner .At a loss at what to do , Chloe knelt down and clasped her hands together, in this moment of chaos the only thought that came to her mind was to pray .Funny enough she's not the type to believe in prayers and God but she's now earnestly seeking help from God." God please, I know I'm the last person you would want to hear from now , but I onl

Liam strolled into his study , his eyes were on the papers immediately he sat down behind his desk , his expression was grim and his attention was on it .His hand went to it as he picked it up to look at the cover page , or was a magazine of his newly acquired company .He didn't even bother to look further into it , he just tossed it aside . " Get me Jimmy "He ordered the guard at the door ." Yes, sir "He replied as if his life depended on it as he left the room without wasting a single time .A few minutes later he came in with Jimmy who was clutching a laptop , and he went back to resume his position at the door . " Boss ! " Jimmy starts " You need to see this ! " He dropped the laptop on Liam's desk, played footage and resumed talking ." Three hours ago , there was a glitch in the airport's CCTV I was monitoring like you ordered me to . I tried restoring the missing footage but to no avail , it seemed like whoever did this wanted to get your attention." Three hours later th

" Boss ! We have scouted the whole area none of Theddy's men survived . Luke's men made sure of that ,and there is no sign of madam" Stuart reported , immediately he saw his boss alighting from the helicopter." He did a clean sweep , what of Theddy?"" Theddy is in his office, his both legs were shot so he couldn't escape "" Seems like he left him behind as the witness , lead the way " The weary and worn out Theddy couldn't lift a finger anymore, he has lost so much blood , his body became numb , dizziness slowly enveloping him that he might slip into unconsciousness any moment.The stale stench of dried and fresh blood filled the room .He let out a defeated chuckle when he saw Liam step into his office, he knew his end was near , he could feel the angel of death waiting to guard his lost soul to hell .But sadly he could nothing about it ," So , Theddy , is that right ?

ItalyAt the Luke's mansion , the door to Rivero's study opened and Klaus stepped in, walked straight to a couch and sat on it . " You are right about Theddy involvement in sex trade , but only did he not do that he also messed up with our plan by abducting our target " Klaus said, as he lighted a cigarette " Yes, but what I don't know is why you left him behind for Liam to deal with despite my order to bring him back "' I can't tell you someone made me promise not to kill him 'Klaus only smiled at him" I thought about it , he's not worth risking a war between the countries. Besides he is a wanted man in his own country so he should pay for his deeds behind bars right ? "" And you think that Liam will let him go that easily ? "" On the contrary, No . But it is worth it to let Liam punish him on our behalf isn't it ? "" Why do I have the feeling that you planned this all along Klaus?

The Substitute Bride Rose's Fury II
Rose stood still , arms crossed and face devoid of any emotion. She was surprised at the act unfolding before her . Gwen sure knows how to play the victim and she wasn't expecting any less from her this time around . Rose's mind raced as she anticipated Marcello's reaction , he had never trusted her so it is useless to explain. It's not like she cared anyways.With Gwen's fabricated story it was certain he’d side with her. Not like she has high expectations of him. Marcello frowned in disbelief as he looked back at Rose. He had been noticing the sudden change in her behaviour. He could still hear the crisp sound of the slap she gave him the day before when he gave her the script he intended for her to memorise for the interview.He wasn't expecting those tiny fingers to have much impact.She even had the guts to tore the papers, rejecting it out rightly. But he had his ways to make her concede . He didn't come all this way to watch her
The Substitute Bride Rose's Fury
“ What was the meaning of what you just did back there. “ Rose asked , the chilling tone in her voice didn't go unnoticed by Gwen who was now taken aback by the sudden question . They both stood in front of a shut door as they were just informed that Marcello was in a meeting with someone by one of his subordinates. Standing in the hallway together with Gwen irked Rose the more . “ What ? I didn't do anything “ Gwen's reply shot through Rose like an arrow and her fingers clenched in a fist . With her back facing Gwen the latter couldn't discern the meaning of her questions considering the fact that she knew they were in it together. But not literally, because she acted out of script taking Rose unawares. it's not like she's going to fill her in on the reason why she made her follow her to the hospital. Knowing Rose , she knew she would not allow her to go ahead with her plan that's why she kept her in the dark despite the latter asking her severally why she needed her to follow

“ I found out that the assassin was his right hand man Klaus .”“ What the.. Klaus Sandoval?”“ Yeah ““ The same Klaus that approached Chloe to keep tabs on you ? ““ You've got that right “ “ You've got to be kidding me ? ““ I sent him free to show him I have nothing against Rivero and I gave him the location of Stacy Luke ( Rivero’s mother ) to back my claim.But seeing as he’s still bent on ruining everything around me was when I knew that whoever was misleading him is really up to no good.And it broke my promise for the first time, so I began my investigations. At first , I wasn't getting any leads till three years ago . I found out that the orphanage Chloe was sent to was owned by the Stefanis and the foundation running the affairs of the orphanage was handled by their daughter Gwen Stefani . The Stefanis are not really that wealthy until after they acquired the orphanage , then things turned around for good and they became wealthy overnight.I'm yet to put the pieces toge

“ Really ? “ It was Liam's turn to be bewildered and his tone says it all.Blaze merely let out a laugh , for Liam to scoff with a roll of his eyes ,to the surprise of Blaze.Things are starting off well for him and this is the sign of it.Blaze smiled , inwardly praising himself for being able to lighten up the mood .Drawing his attention back to the glass he held , shaking his hands slowly he watched as the liquid danced like it’s experiencing a storm, a complete picture of how he's feeling inside .Bringing the glass to his mouth he gulped the whole liquid ,the burning feeling from his tongue down to his throat and into his stomach , giving him a satisfying feeling.And that's just what he needed at the moment .“ You know I thought I was doing the right thing keeping my real identity from Chloe . I found out about the orphanage where she was kept before she was adopted by Chester the same day Rose resurfaced making me wonder why ? But all I could tell was that he did that to d

Chloe's words kept ringing in Blaze’s mind like a recording , making him restless.coupled with the recent happenings he couldn't help but see sense in what she said.Truly , Rose’s disappearance wasn't just any minor case but had strings attached to it; her reappearance barely a month when Chloe returned proves it all. As much as he hates to admit that Chloe was right when she said everything points down to that night.The night the Luke’s clan was almost wiped out .‘ If the three powerful clans were gathered together that night then who's likely to be the one that attacked ? ‘ thought Blaze, rubbing his chin absentmindedly. He didn't know much about Liam's family’s past. For all he could tell Liam's mother got married to their father when he was still in high school . And he didn't get to know much about Liam because he never got to see him whenever there’s a family dinner.Typical Liam.When enquired about him by Blaze's father , Liam's mum will wave it away saying he's busy
The Substitute Bride Ruined
Ever since the disappearance of Rose, Chloe always pictured the day they will meet again because she has a strong feeling Rose was still alive .Seeing Rose now , she couldn't express the emotion she was feeling. Because the person standing before her wasn't her best friend. Her eyes were empty , they housed no emotions . Like someone who has thrown away all the will to live .She's been hearing about Rose's return but seeing her up close was a different issue altogether.Chloe felt panicked and scared not for herself but for the fact that Rose is no longer who she used to be. She tightly clenched her fist. She was willing to pay any price for her best friend to be back .Rose can choose to slander over and over again if she feels like it and she won't budge if that will make her better . Even if it means giving up her acting career , she owes Rose that much.Seeing Rose with Gwen sends her the wrong message , making her believe that something was definitely off. The red warning sign

After the meeting during the break she got wind of Rose's return, and tried to confirm from Chloe but it couldn't connect the same with her manager's. After much consideration and deliberation she tried to contact Liam , who picked up on the first ring. How he knew she was the one calling was a mystery to her , " Come to Imperial hospital your friend is there. " Came his cold and blunt reply , Daisy didn't wait to dwell on his cold and aloof manners and boarded the next available taxi. She arrived at the hospital and inquired about it , she couldn't get to ask Liam the ward Chloe was in before he ended the
