Storm had to gag Bernice and tie her hands behind her back before dumping her in the car. She had been screaming, scratching his face and biting him. She was like a rabid dog and he ended up being bloodied.He swore he was dropping this nutcase back to her parents and resigning immediately, to heck with paying debts. As soon as he got to the Skylar's mansion, he picked Bernice up and gagged and bound, dropped her at her father's feet."Mr. Skylar, I am done. Don't even pay me for this month." Having said that, he dropped the car keys, access keys and gun given to him and walked out without a backward glance.Her parents had been watching the breaking news so they saw how their daughter had caused a scene and embarrassed herself.*****Back in West County, two wine glasses dropped simultaneously. Ana started trembling violently, clutching onto Damont, who was hit with shock. They had just witnessed the engagement announcement of somebody they thought was dead and buried.Damont's mind
All renowned reporters from the capital city were headed to The Efinson Hotel.Those who didn't get an invitation to the major press conference looked upon their colleagues with envy. They all heard that The lce King, as he was popularly known in the country, was about to release a statement that was going to change forces.Who wouldn't want to make a name for themselves and their company by covering such an event?Bernice's car was also in the convoy that was headed to the hotel.

Back at Frost's house, Vinca was pacing up and down in the living room, fuming with anger, while Leo looked at her anxiously."Please sit down, and I will explain everything", Frost tried coaxing her. He then called out to Maria to bring them some refreshments."I want you to be my fake fiancée," he said like it was the most natural statement to come out of his mouth.Vinca and Leo looked at Frost, not believing the words coming out of his mouth. Vinca, who was already mad at him, felt her blood boiling."You want me to what?" she shouted.Frost, not noticing the anger in her eyes repeated himself. "Be my fake fiancée until Bernice stops bothering me"WHOOSH!!A cup missed his face by an inch and his shirt got drenched with tea. Leo held Vinca's hand before she could throw another missile."Just because you are my benefactor doesn't mean you can treat me like a slave. How dare you ask that of me?" she was fuming.Holding up his hands as a sign of surrender, he said " Please, just hear
The car hooted loudly at the gate of Skylars' manor. Bernice's bodyguard was really in a rush to get her home because her crying and cursing were getting on to his last nerve.If he could, he would have stopped the car on some deserted road, wrung the breath out of her, and dumped her lifeless body in the sea.He was an Army General turned bodyguard. He had worked so hard for his achievements in the army and was honourably discharged from active duty. At the age of twenty-eight, he had managed to reach heights that most thought of only in their dreams.The only reason he took this job was that he owed Mr. Skylar and he was a man who paid his debts. Working as the bodyguard of this spoiled brat was an insult to his manhood.Driving straight to the entrance of the mansion, he opened the rear door, took a hold of the young miss, and shoved her out. Her intense screaming brought her mother to run out of the house to find out what was happening.Seeing her precious daughter sprawled on the
Bernice sauntered into the school hallway like a princess. She was the daughter and only child of Gilbert and Bertha Skylar the Presidents and founders of Skylars House of Fashion, the leading fashion house in the country.Her parents had tried for so many years to conceive a child to make their family complete. They had Bernice when they were already advanced in age so they ended up spoiling her rotten, giving her anything she desired.She was starting her first day in the new school because she had been expelled from her previous school. Since it was her senior year, her parents were desperate for her to get her high school Diploma. They had paid a lot of money for the school to have admitted her in her last year.As she walked, heads turned to admire her cause she was a natural beauty. Being a rich, beautiful and only child made her think that she owned the world.That is why on her very first day in her new school, she saw Frost standing by the lockers and decided that he was goin
Frost and Leo were already in the dining room with Maria setting the table. Vinca came in like a breath of fresh air in a humid room, with Bruno at her heels.Both men looked at her in awe. She was the real epitome of spring; a fairy princess in a purple sundress and a light matching sweater with pink slippers, holding pink roses in her hand.For sure, spring had arrived. She gave each one of them a rose as a sign of appreciation for the love and care that they had shown her since her rescue, blushing a crimson red as she handed the flowers.She was very much at ease in their presence, like a family from another world. She frowned as she had a passing thought of her mother and father.The table was laid with fried eggs, sausages, baked beans, grilled tomatoes, and toasted bread. One had a choice of either coffee or tea.As they were eating, Vinca turned to Frost and asked him if he had thought about the request she made some time back. She needed to get a job and keep herself busy eve
Maria reacted quickly, pressing the emergency bell to call the nurses as she tried her best to hold her down. The nurse on duty came running into the room and seeing the situation, immediately called for the doctor.One look and Doctor Weister asked the nurse to inject the lady with a sedative as she asked Maria to call Frost. Maria, shaken, went outside to make the call.After the patient calmed down, Weister checked her pulse and temperature. She had a feeling maybe something was triggered in the lady's memory but since she hadn't come out of the coma, they just had to do their best to monitor her.Vinca felt like she was falling down a deep, black hole. She wanted to scream but no sound came forth. Her fall was cut short abruptly and she was now floating in a white cloud. *****Damont rushed to the door as soon as he heard the doorbell. Vinca heard the front door being opened and shut then the sound of heels. The bedroom door was flung open and a lady from earlier came in. "You s
Leo was half asleep on the cot while Frost was busy on the laptop searching for information. The young lady was still comatose with a drip on her right arm. Machines monitoring her breathing and heart rate were beeping softly by her side.Maria opened the door a crack and peeped inside. Seeing her boss, she went in with the lunch that she had prepared for them."Frost, you need to go home and rest for a while. Leo and l can watch over her".Leo's stomach grumbled as he smelled the food. Frost got up from his seat and stretched, heading towards the window. The information he got about the wedding couple gave him question marks.The wedding happened the same week he rescued her and it was also in the same county. How were they related for her to have such a violent reaction? And why was she locked up in that dirty, dark shed, beaten almost half to death? He never liked mysteries and he was itching to get to the bottom of this.Leo was already up and eating while Maria got warm water and
She woke up in a dark and stuffy room. Coughing, she tried hard to breathe in the stale air that was suffocating her as she struggled to get her head around the recent happening but just couldn't fathom what she had encountered. Images kept flashing in her mind and going back into the dark before she could make any meaning of them.She tried standing up on her feet but was too weak to do so. She then opted to lean her back against the wall but felt a sharp wound on her left side. Reaching her hand to the pain, she touched a wet sticky substance. She had no idea what it was and she couldn't see a thing in the dark."Breath gal, breath," she told herself, starting to feel overwhelmed with anxiety rise."Hello, can anyone hear me?"Silence."Hello, please I need help. Anyoneplease" she cried out. Silence."Oh God, where am I, and what happened to me? Why can't I remember anything"?
