Chapter Thirty One

It was drizzling and was about to start raining heavily when she got to the house. She had just returned from the hospital after her second visit to see Daisy just as she had earlier promised. Her driver had dropped her off in front of her house as usual and drove off.She was glad the rain didn't meet her outside as she had this personal issue with rainy days, especially the heavy ones. She searched for her keys in her bag till she found it after some fumblings. She inserted the key into the keyhole and tried to unlock the door when she noticed that the door was open. She stared at it for a while, wondering if she had left it open that morning while leaving for work, but she couldn't remember exactly. After a furtile thinking, she overlooked it, then she went into the house and locked the door properly. As she turned on the light, she saw a manly figure sitting on the sofa just right there in the sitting room, backing her. She couldn't see who it was and fear gripped he

Chapter Thirty Two

Mr. Shaw stared at the magazine bluntly, showing no detectable facial expression, as he puffed the tobacco occasionally. Another glance at the next column of the magazine, he frowned, displeased by what he had just read."Is something meaningful no longer happening around here? No catchy headlines, no interesting stories about rise in stocks, collapse of a company, rise of the victorious one. Every single thing looks so predictable and it disgusts me." He lamented to no one in particular since he was the only one in his private office.He kept checking the pages one after the other, but was not satisfied with whatever he was seeing. "I miss the days when I still was young and vibrant. I mean, every week, I birthed new headlines for the people. Whether directly or indirectly. The current youngsters are too lenient with themselves." He complained.He flipped to the last page of the magazine, which after he had gone through, he tossed it fiercely on the floor. He puffed the tobacco, inha

Chapter Thirty Four

CEO Dash dash was seated in his private lounge in his house, a glass of wine in his hand. He sipped calmly, as he thought about how to work on something that had been bothering him. He had asked Nathan and some of his trusted allies to help him out, but all had proved abortive. He knew they had done a good job, but needed something much better than the casual responses he had been getting. It had been several weeks since he heard from his mother. His other siblings had said the same thing when he had called to complain to them. Each time he called, he would always be redirected to voicemail and he got scared. He needed to see his mother, she was the one he could easily share his ordeal with whenever he was having any issues whatsoever. His father had said that she was in her private vacation home, which she had purchased secretly, hoping to stay there and recover fully before returning home. He didn't trust his father one bit, especially coupled with the fact that he d

Daisy woke up in a start, disturbed by the noise from the bathroom, she couldn't go back to sleep again even though she tried. "Oh, you're awake? Stacy asked, drying her wet hair as she strolled into the room, from the bathroom. Daisy yawned lightly. "Yeah, I'm awake, big thanks to you." She replied, still on bed.Stacy stared at her, confused by the remark she had made. "What do you mean by that? Daisy got up from the bed and headed to the bathroom. "You were noisy." She answered, dragging her legs. Realising what Daisy meant she apologised. "I'm really sorry D, I didn't mean to." She said loudly so she could hear. Daisy came back to the room and sat on the bed, staring at Stacy. She noticed that she behaved a little awkward and weird, which she found suspicious. "Stacy, are you good? She asked, making it obvious that she didn't fancy the new her, if there was anything as that.Stacy smiled faintly and nodded, too weak to fake a broad smile. "Actually, I'

Chapter Thirty Six

She grabbed her work pad and started going through the tasks. She noticed that most of the tasks she left unattended to had been taken care of. She was really glad and grateful to whoever helped her. Thinking about it, she wondered who could have done that. CEO Dash would never in his entire life handle anything that concerned her, not after wishing her dead, she sighed. "Hold on, what if he hired someone else to replace me? She gasped, as she came to the realisation that she was easily replaceable. "Oh no, did he call me to retract my contract? Her heart skipped a millionth times.Though she wished to do away with the job, deep down, she wanted it. The job had given her access to the kind of life she had only dreamt of. She sent money home weekly each time she got her pay and had been able to save some enormous amount of money like never before. She had about five more weeks to go. She prayed her hallucinations do not turn out to become a reality, as that would be a tough one

Sitting in front of his laptop in his room which was partly dark, with only a gasoline lamp that lit the room. He stared at the laptop, fascinated by what he was seeing. He grabbed a pack of popcorn sitting on the table in front of him, then sat back to chew. He stared at the laptop for a while marvelled at the description of his new assignment.He had been asked to track a particular lady and keep tabs on her, find out everything about her and everyone connected to her. It was funny to him that two of his clients were paying differently to make use of that same woman. His job was to work for all of his clients, despite the work demands, as far as it came with a very good pay. That was Lomar, the hitman.His parents had abandoned, rather, disowned him when he was still a teenager. He joined gangs from quite a tender age and every plea, punishments and torture didn't change him, but made him worse. As soon as he clocked twenty, he left home to stay with his friends in a

Chapter Thirty Eight

She unlocked the door, singing happily as she sauntered into the house, clutching her bag and a shopping package Nathan had gotten for her. Apparently, she had said yes to his proposal, so they were officially a thing. She sighted Stacy from the sitting room and hurried over to help her out. "Oh my goodness! She said loudly, almost in a scream. What happened to you? Why are you on the floor? Daisy asked very much concerned about her.Stacy limped slightly after getting up, with the help of Daisy. "I actually slipped few minutes ago and when I heard you, I became too lazy to get up." She lied. Daisy noticed the bruise on her forehead and wondered what could have really happened. "Stacy, your forehead, what happened to you? She asked, touching there lightly.Stacy immediately moved away slowly from her and covered her face with her palm. "Daisy, I said I'm fine. I only slipped. I guess I hit my head on the table at the process of falling." She replied harshly, not want
