Chapter 40."You look beautiful Elizabeth," Mrs Wilson, Greg's mother, praised."Thank you mother, you have done everything just for me " Elizabeth replied, holding Mrs Wilson's hands, she was dressed in a white wedding gown, facing a vanity mirror, the stylist had just finished with final touches of her makeup and left the room.Elizabeth stared at her reflection in the mirror, she was looking so radiant and extremely beautiful, the happiness was evident all over face.She had waited for this day and now the day was here, her heart couldn't contain the excitement and joy she was feeling.It was overwhelming, today she was going to become Greg's lawful wife, although the ceremony was not as huge as she wanted it to be, but at least half of the city members were invited."Come on we have to start going, we can't keep Greg waiting now.. he might think that you decided to call off the wedding" Mrs Wilson teased."I would never think of doing that mother, you know it's my greatest wish an
Chapter 41 There wasn't so much work to be done at the office but still Megan's presence was needed at the company. What she did not expect was the magazine her assistant had just handed over to her. With a wave, she dismissed the assistant from the office as she took a second look at the picture of Elizabeth and Greg. They looked so happy together, her gaze rested on Elizabeth as a sly smile appeared on her lips. She looked so radiant and beautiful. Megan thought of Beth always managing to come out of every difficult situation she was in. She chuckled at the irony of her life as the memory of Elizabeth pinning the blame of her miscarriage on her despite knowing she wasn't pregnant. She did everything she could to get Greg and now she finally had him, Megan wished them both happiness even though they did not deserve it. She was determined to move on as she was stronger and also in a better position now, there was no need to carry the baggage of the past. Although Megan wasn't go
"Detective?" Megan repeated.She was surprised that this officer approached her and was now introducing himself to her, what could he want from me? She thought to herself.The situation seemed kind of crude and she could already suspect something fishy.Meanwhile on the other side of the city the mastermind was having a great time, Elizabeth, "Since we didn't get a wedding gift from her, I decided to send one to her '' Elizabeth said to Greg while drawing circles on his chest, they were both lying on the bed, naked after a round of intense love making."What do you plan to do now Beth?" Greg asked with a sly smile on his face while taking his attention off his phone."Why don't we send her back to where she belongs, the prison that is where Megan belongs for everything she has done to us" Beth replied as anger was starting to rise in her."How can we do that?""So here is the plan..."Elizabeth revealed her plans to Greg and the smile on his face grew wider."Absolutely perfect my lo
Chapter 43Police officer fin was quite perplexed, has she been arrested before. He thought with furrowed brows.“Anyways, can I make a call," Megan questioned with a solemn face?He didn't know if he should agree, but he certainly knew that Megan was no joke, she was an elite. He had heard things about her, her dangerous brothers, as well as her father's unending wealth.Although he was quite new to the police profession, his colleagues would always talk about the chief police officer, officer Gabby's traumatic experience with Megan.At first, he was reluctant to follow the orders because there seemed to be something shady going on. However, he had to do it, after all that was his job. Now he was even curious to know what offense she might have committed before.“Sure ma'am, but you'd have to use my phone," officer fin declared in a confident voice. He dips his hands into his pocket and brought out his phone.“Sure”, she responded. And dialed Enzo's number, she didn't want to bother
“Enzo was supposed to come bail you out, but he got an emergency, he kept calling Loyd, but Loyd left his phone in the house and I managed to pick Enzo's call and I volunteered to help”. Evelyn blurted out.Evelyn was an average height lady, has light-brown eyes and a pale skin. She was young for someone who had given birth to her child Brittany before she even married Megan's father. What angered Megan the most was that her dad married Evelyn barely after two months of her mother's death.“I sorted myself out already, it wasn't necessary for you to come”. Megan said coldly before walking out of the station. She felt nauseous and sick that she took in deep breaths of the clean air present in the atmosphere.“I know you hate me Megan”. She suddenly stopped walking as Evelyn interrupted her.“You know that, and yet you decide to move in with people who hate you”. Megan questioned with an amused smile. How pathetic.“See, I know you are angry, angry at the fact that we never let Sonia re
On the other side of the world Megan was bored to death as she got home, she was ready to face Loyd, but he wasn't home, she wasn't surprised, though. So she decided to isolate herself in her room throughout.Enzo called earlier, he apologized for not showing up and letting her put up with Evelyn. He even asked if they could meet again, but she was exhausted and couldn't meet him.She explained everything that transpired at the police station to Enzo, and he promised to come home just for her sake.At a point Megan couldn't take it anymore, she decided to go out, she was frustrated and bored and to top it all, Alex kept calling her non-stop.Alex chapter is something she wasn't ready to open yet, at least not now, she still had a lot of processing to do, and she needed time as well.Megan decided to hype herself up as she got ready, it's been a long time since she visited the club all by herself, and this evening looked like a promising one.Megan showered and got dressed, she had alw
Chapter 46.Alex felt his cool gradually seeping off him, he was growing frustrated. He never expected to see Megan with another man. Ever since that night, the night with Megan in his car and their almost car sex, he had been trying to reach Megan, but she kept on declining his calls.He decided to go out to one of his clubs, it's been a long time since he visited the club, and he didn't want to remain at home.When Alex arrived at the club which happened to be the same place Megan was at. And this happened to be the same period Megan ended her show on the stage so he didn't see her dancing.He sat at the VIP Lounge, taking in the entire Dance floor when his face suddenly rested on Megan!And the most shocking part. She was dancing with a man!Alex couldn't believe his eyes as he marched angrily towards them.Robert on the other hand who was enjoying himself as Megan lost herself in the dance. She was so irresistible. And just as he was captivated by her a sudden raspy voice interrup
Alex was quite perplexed as Megan kissed him, but he didn't hold back, this was what he wanted for days, and now it was happening, he kissed Megan back ferociously as his hands found its way to her small waist.He was losing it slowly, but he had to break from the kiss as he could feel that Megan was out of breath.Alex joined his forehead with that of Megan, panting heavily, “I want you so much Megan, I want you so bad that I am burning for you” Alex Confessed.“Have me then Alex, take me” Megan muttered.Alex stilled. He never expected Megan's reply, and it was quite abnormal, she has been avoiding him for days, but she just kissed him right?“Megan…" Alex called out as he looked downwards to see her facial expressions, Megan looked flushed and pale and her eyes hazy with desire.Alex panicked. Immediately he placed his hand on her neck to access her body temperature, and it was very high.“What happened to you Megan?” Alex questioned angrily.“Hmmmm, make me feel good Alex” Megan m
Mr. Leonard’s footsteps echoed softly as he descended the stairs, his eyes were dull as he scanned the room. Alex, Megan, Enzo, and Loyd stood, all eyes on him. Jake clung to his mother's side, his small hand gripping hers tightly."Jake," Leonard said softly, stepping forward with a smile. “You look so much like your mother.” Megan swallowed, her lips pressed tightly together, but she didn’t respond. Her grip on Jake’s hand tightened as Leonard reached out to touch the boy’s face. Jake smiled a little but moved behind his mother to hide. He knew Grandpa hurt mum, so he was also angry.Leonard’s hand dropped slowly, hurt. “Maybe I deserve that,” he murmured, sighing as he pulled back. Enzo cleared his throat as dinner was served and they all moved to the table, sitting in silence as the sound of cutlery clinking on dishes became the only noise.After a long pause, Leonard cleared his throat and looked up at his children. “I know I wasn’t a good father.”Loyd scoffed, muttering under
Two years later.Things may have seemed like they will never go back to normal for Megan, it was from one trouble to another bigger one. However it says with trouble comes ease.Megan stood in front of the crystal like window as she admired the light blue sky. How she wishes she could just stand here forever. As it reminded her of her better and bad Days.“Mummy, we are going to be late, daddy is waiting”. Little Jake, who was not so little anymore, bugged his mother with his sharp and piercing tone.Yes, Megan and Alex got married last year and they have been happy together. You might wonder what happened to Evelyn and Brittany. Well Evelyn was dead obviously.However Brittany's life never remained the same. She got depressed and started taking drugs, Mr Leonard still considered her his daughter so he sent her to rehab.“Oh, baby, Megan's face lit up with a smile. How she loved this little boy. Mummy is done already, let's go”. She grabbed onto his hands and moved towards the living
Life can be unpredictable right. Evelyn was still dazed, it felt as though her legs couldn't move.“No,no that is not true, she sniffed hard. It's not true. He died, I was winning and all of you were my puppets, everything was going according to my grand plan”. She kept emphasising on her words while pointing at Leonard.“Shut up woman, he interjected. I was never dead even if you did everything possible to get me out of the way. I heard the things you said to me while I was unconscious”.Evelyn gasped for the upteenth time. “How is this possible?” However instead of feeling remorse for her evil activities, she felt nothing but anger. It brewed slowly inside of her that it made her burst.“It's all your fucking fault. Did you think after how you betrayed me I will just let you into my life again. I accepted you because of your wealth and what you had to offer to our daughter”.“And I killed your wife to make sure nothing gets in my way again but your stupid witch of a daughter just ha
Brittany was feeling feverish, a feeling that what she was doing wasn't good. However her urge to have Alex just to herself was even greater.“It's too bad we have to get separated in this way, Meg”. Evelyn whispered to Megan as she finally cocked her gun and pointed it at her.“Please, Megan begged weakly. I will go far away with my son and never return”. Jake was the only person she could think of at that moment. She needed to keep him away from harm.“It's too late darling, Evelyn sucked her lips showing false sympathy. You should have disappeared when you had the chance”. She said with a glint in her eyes.“Don't worry meg, Brittany is going to take care of him and Alex”. Evelyn pointed the gun at Megan, this time with the intent of pulling the trigger. She has said all that needed to be said. While Brittany watched with mixed feelings.Everything seemed to be in slow motion to Megan. The moment felt like an eternity. The air grew thick and heavy, pressing against her chest, maki
The fear in Megan's heart was sharp, her pulse quickening as Evelyn stood over her, gun in hand, her expression twisted with a mixture of anger and satisfaction.Brittany stood nearby, her posture tense, her face a mask of conflicting emotions. Megan could see the hesitation in her sister’s eyes, a flicker of uncertainty that was an opposite of the cold malice she had shown earlier. But there was no time to dwell on it. Not with Evelyn so close, her finger poised on the trigger.“Stay out of this, Brittany,” Evelyn snapped, her voice hard and cold. “You’re just as stupid as Sonia was, and that’s why she’s dead.”Evelyn’s words cut through the air like a knife, and Megan’s heart lurched. She looked at the woman closely, wondering if she'd just misheard. Did she just admit to knowing about her mother's death? “What do you know about my mother's death? Megan asked with a shaky voice. She watched as Evelyn struggled to maintain her composure, her hand shaking slightly as she pressed the
consciousness crept back into her mind. The pounding in her head was unbearable, a dull ache that intensified when she tried to open her eyes. “Damn," she hissed as the migraine hit her in full force. She felt like her head was splitting in half and she couldn't even help it. “Where am I?" She muttered as she turned. She blinked several times, trying to adjust to the dim light filtering through the room. It was then that the cold, hard reality hit her—she was tied tightly to a chair, her wrists and ankles bound with rough rope that dug into her skin.Panic surged through her, and she instinctively began to struggle against her restraints. The chair creaked under the force of her movements, but the ropes held firm. “Who is here! Help me!" She called out, wiggling. Panicked, she glanced around her, the memories of what had just happened assailed her. Someone had grabbed her from behind and she'd passed out with the pungent smell forced in her face. She'd been drugged and now she was
Megan shivered, she had a bad feeling that her sister, Brittany had done something crazy. Why else was she calling just when she couldn't find her son and then she was laughing like a psychopath. “Brittany?" She called out over the phone, standing in the living room and shivering in her shoes. “I guess you're home by now, because I know that you wouldn't have answered my call otherwise," she said with a casual tone. “Why are you calling?" Megan asked carefully. She had a bad feeling in her guts that Brittany's call wasn't just a coincidence. “You know why I'm calling, Megan, don't play dumb with me," Brittany replied with a stiff tone. Megan sighed, taking deep breaths to steady herself. She was already trembling and she couldn't find her voice. "Brittany, what is this about?” She asked, already losing her patience. The anxiety was killing her and clearly Brittany was trying to mess with her head. How on earth did she know that she'd just gotten home? And what did that have to do
Brittany stood in the doorway, a forced smile plastered on her face as she gazed at her nephew, Jake. She had a sly smile on her face. How lucky she was, as if everything in nature was just sending her a sign. Her mother's plan would work out smoothly. “Hey little boy," she said with a sugary tone. But Jake just looked up from his painting and gazed at her blankly without saying a word, his eyes almost bored. “Come on, won't you say hello to your aunty?" Brittany tried again with an even more sweet voice but inwardly she was rolling her eyes. “No," Jake gave a single monotonous reply and didn't bother explaining himself, he just picked up his crayons and continued stroking each color across his white paper. Brittany sneered as he turned his face away, he was indeed a miniature version of his mother, Megan, with the same piercing blue eyes and mischievous grin. It was almost like he was staring at Megan's younger self right there on the couch. "Oh, Jake, I'm sure you don't really
Brittany paced back and forth in the fancy little cafe. She couldn't help the anxiety and anger that she felt. The thought of them made her nauseous. “She is in there with him as we speak!" She said and drummed her fingers on the table again. Evelyn had a very calm look on her face. But then that was typical. She wasn't easily ruffled, she always had a plan for everything and that was exactly why her daughter trusted her to find a solution. “Calm down, Brittany, anger never solved anything, what you need to do is plan," she advised. Brittany was exasperated, she hissed, “Calm? How can I possibly be calm right now?" She asked, spreading her arms. “She is with my husband and he won't even allow me see him, he told me to stay out of his way." Smiling, Evelyn waved it all off like it didn't matter. “Come on, Alex is just licking his wounds. You should allow him to do that.” She replied. "I don't know how long that will last for and frankly I don't wish to find out. All I know is that
