AUTHOR’S POV. When the men brought Kira home, she was unconscious and paled so Daniel hurriedly ushered them to her room. “Why is she looking like this? You should have taken her to the hospital first!” He exclaimed as he stared at her. “She was locked in a small room and according to Damien, she’s been locked up for about five days without having anything to eat or drink. I guess the aim was to let her starve to death. I’ve called the doctor on our way here and he is coming now,” Alfred said to Daniel after they laid her on the bed. “Five days?!” Daniel widened his eyes. He glanced at Sapphire who had a pitiful expression on her face and then turned to look at Kira whose lips were chapped dry, and her face was white. She looked almost lifeless and if the man had not told her that she was still breathing, he would have assumed that she was dead. “Should we give her water first? She is so dehydrated,” Sapphire said. “Get water,” Daniel said to one of the men. Sapphire walked to
AUTHOR’S POV.“I am sorry,” Kira bowed her head and then picked on her nails.The last person she thought was going to save her was Daniel even though she also felt like he was going to save her.Daniel had always been there for her. He had been a father to her and she admitted that she had been so stupid to have developed feelings for that man instead.While she was locked in that cold, dark room, all she thought of was Daniel.She knew that if things were okay between them, he would have been the first to have noticed that she was missing.Now that she was out of their lives with the shit that she had done to Sapphire, he knew that the man would never forgive her or look for her.She had accepted her fate— dying and probably rotting away in that room.However, when she had opened her eyes to her ever familiar room in Daniel’s house, a sense of relief washed her.Sapphire had not even cared about what she had done to her, still, she looked after her.She fed her and kept looking out
EPISODE 189. THAT GOLD DIGGER.AUTHOR’S POV.Emerald was in her room when she heard the loud noise from downstairs, so she peeped through the window and then pulled her brows together when she saw the men who got out of the van. She put a coat on and then rushed outside.“What is going on?” She asked her dad who bit his finger anxiously.“They are here.”“Who are they?” She asked as she watched them approach them.He turned to look at her and then exhaled, “Our house…”“Fuck, our house? I thought you had settled it!” She yelled.It was past the due time the bank had given them so she assumed that her father had sorted it out as he was even relaxed. Jesus, he was fucking indifferent to the fact that their house was going!“What are you going to do?” She asked him.“What are you saying? I have no one to run to,” he shook his head.“Fuck, Dad!”“Good day, Mr. Rodriquez, we are from CNN Worldwide Banking. As from this moment onwards, we hereby confiscate all of your properties,
AUTHOR’S POV.“I’m so happy for you!” Tina shrieked after she pulled Sapphire to the coffee room and then hugged her again.“I know, thank you,” Sapphire smiled after she broke the hug and then dropped her hand on her stomach unconsciously.“I guess this was the reason you stopped coming to work. Right?” Tina asked.“Not actually. I had a bit of a private matter going on so my husband stopped me from coming again, and then I got pregnant too,” she shrugged.“Ah… speaking of your husband, Mr. Daniel has changed a lot! What did you do to him?!” Tina screamed and clapped her hands together.“How? What do you mean?”“He no longer frowns like before. Even whenever we hit the deadline of whatever project he gives us, he’d just be like… ‘one more week’…” She feigned his voice and Sapphire laughed.“Really?”“Yes! We really did not think we could ever see that side of him. It’s all thanks to you, I guess,” she giggled.“How is it me? Come on. I guess he just got tired of being grumpy,” Sapphi
AUTHOR’S POV.“Welcome,” Daniel ushered Charlotte in and they shook hands with the man.“I am Carlo,” he said.“I am Daniel,” Daniel answered.“I know,” Carlo smiled gently.Daniel nodded his head and then showed him the way in.“Where is Sapphire?” Charlotte asked as she entered.“I will get her now. You guys should feel at home,” Daniel said and then headed to the stairs.When he got to the door, he exhaled and pushed the door open gently.“Amore,” he called her as she dropped a piece of shrimp in her mouth.“Are they here?” She asked and got out of the chair.“Yes, are you ready?” He asked and she nodded her head.“For the last time, who are they?” Sapphire asked with a frown.“Are you still on that? Just come with me and see them,” he moved closer to her, took her hand in his, and then fondled it gently.“Okay.”____As Sapphire got down, she tilted her head as she stared at the familiar backside and then, the woman turned around instantly.“Mum?” She drew her brows together as sh
AUTHOR’S POV.Emerald stood in a corner while she stared at the huge gate of the mansion of the Prestons. She bit her lower lips as she hit her leg on the floor.She had been standing there for over ten minutes wondering if she should move over to the gate or not.She had nothing to lose anymore… Did she?Their house has been taken away.Her cars and most of her belongings have been taken away because they were under her father’s name.The last news she had from her father was when he had gone to court and when the media had announced his verdicts.Her father was going to serve his term in jail.Finally, she moved to the big gate and then pressed the button. The gate pulled open almost immediately and the middle-aged security man opened the gate.“Ma… ma’am?” He raised his brows and then turned to look backward again.“It’s me. Emerald, Sapphire’s twin sister,” she said grudgingly.“Madam is a twin…? Ah, I’m sorry.”“You didn’t know?” Emerald raised her brows in detest.Her identity wa
AUTHOR’S POV.“How could you say you don’t want to meet him?” Sapphire pulled her brows together.“You might not know… no, it is something that you know very well. I am not like you. I’m not going to seek validation from another man just because MY DAD, George, is in prison. Never. He treated you wrong… not me. Get your facts right, while growing up, I was loved by him. He hated you so it is understandable if you choose to accept another man. As for me, I am not interested in that shit. All I need is to get away from this fucking country and away from you all. I hate you very much and staying in this country with you all is messing with my head and I might want to do something bad again… you know I always do,” she breathed out and swept her hair to the back.“Have fun with your new father… but I don’t care. Just give me money, and I will leave. I know you want that more than anyone else.”Sapphire smacked her tongue and exhaled. Of course, she wanted it. She took a glance at Carlo who
AUTHOR’S POV. Charlotte sat patiently behind the counter as she waited for the man to appear and after what seemed like an eternity, he walked towards her with two cell guards behind him. “See who is here,” he snorted as he settled on the chair and then tapped the glass which divided them. Charlotte stared at George and then nodded her head, she watched as the guards left them alone and then leaned her back against the chair. “You must have missed me, no?” George laughed. “You left without telling anyone. Should I be happy about your presence? You don’t think I am going to accept you, do you?” He raised his brows. “You… you look so good in that jail uniform,” Charlotte commented and then chuckled. “What?” George frowned. “That uniform. I said it looks so good on you,” she smiled again. “Hey!” “I heard you’re sentenced to twelve years imprisonment, with four years probation afterward.” “So? Do you pity me?” “Pity you? Come on, no way. I don’t even mind if you’re sentenced to
