All Chapters of The Mask She Wears: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Tania||I scuttled around the closet as I ran through every cupboard, cabinet and wardrobe inside the large space, grabbing clothes and stuffing them haphazardly inside the big black suitcase that was laid open in the middle of the closet.The suitcase had clothes overflowing out of it and around it as I had missed throwing the clothes into the right place a number of times. But that didn't matter.My mind was working overtime, trying to find a secure place where Nicholas would not be able to reach me.I paused mid motion, a bra slung around my arm and a bottle of Elizabeth Arden perfume in another hand as a sound reached my ear.Once again the sound came and I was able to trace it to the room.I felt my heart in my mouth as fear weakened every part of my body and took over me.In a swift movement, I picked up my Christian Louboutin pumps and clutched it tightly in my hands.I then ran on my tip toes out of the closet and into the room. There, I traced the noise to the sound of the d

Tania||"Let's go downstairs. Marcus is here." I spoke hastily as I tucked in my iPhone into my pocket and grabbed Ivan's wrist, dragging him along as I headed out of the closet."Who is Marcus?" He inquired as he trailed behind me."A friend." I replied casually but Ivan pulled me back."Hold on!" Ivan said, coming to an abrupt stop which made it impossible for me to move forward. "Who is this person?" He asked.Rolling my eyes out of frustration, I replied. "He used to be my employee who turned to a friend. He was my inside man in the company all these while and I invited him so we could talk." I tried to pull him so we could move forward but Ivan did not budge."Doesn't it seem odd to you? That he would call saying he was at the house almost immediately after a random person just confessed to stalking you?" He asked.I stopped trying to move and considered his statement as my heart thundered.

Tania||"No!" I cried out, falling to my knees as the phone fell down from my hands.I wrapped my arms around my chest, holding it hard as if I was trying to prevent someone from ripping it away from me."What happened?" Ivan ran to my side, going down on his knees and pulling me to him.I let him hold me as I cried in pain.Eloise's refusal to listen to me made me feel like I was losing her again and this time, if felt more final than the last time."Shhhh..." Ivan cooed in my ears as he rocked me in his arms."She refused to listen to me! She does not believe I am her sister!" I cried out. "I know Nicholas! He is going to use her as bait to pull me out and trust me, he will not take it easy on her." I continued."It's okay. We'll figure something out. We'll find a way to make her see the truth." Ivan consoled me.I raised my eyes to look at Marcus who hovered above Ivan and I, hands in his pockets trousers, watching us."Could you please call her? She knows you. She knows you're lik

Eloise|| My eyes shut closed immediately as they opened to the bright room. I grimaced, my hand hugging myself tighter as every part of my body ached when I tried to raise myself up from the cold tiled floor. I prepared my mind and counted to three and then staggered up from the floor. I bit down hard on my teeth, grunting as the pain shot through my entire body. The room was well lit by the stream of sunlight pouring into the room through the two large windows. Tears pooled in my eyes as I gasped when my eyes saw the blood that had stained the floor. The dried drops of blood had turned a deep dark shade of red and I wondered what part of my body it came from. From how bright and warm the sun was, I guessed that it was probably noon or late morning. This meant I had passed out for the entire night yesterday and had only woken up mid day today. I tried to cast my mind back to what happened and I shut my eyes as the ordeal I had gone through in the hands of Nicholas yesterday

Tania||For the first time since I walked into the massive, complex of the White–Angel company as Angel Simmons, I walked with the confidence that came with being the owner of the company. I strode into the massive complex, my confidence soaring, my smile hiding the turmoil that was brewing inside. We were about to expose Nicholas's secrets and reclaim my rightful place as CEO.I walked confidently, in a black pantsuit and Dior heels, head held high, flanked by Ivan on my right and Marcus on my left with a smile on my face.We were the center of attraction as whispers and glances followed us as rumors must have already flown around about the emergency board meeting that claimed to reveal a dastardly secret.When Ivan told me his idea yesterday, I refused to see the reason behind it. This was not because I did not believe it was a worthwhile venture, but because I was scared. I was scared to believe that there was a way out only for me to come onto a block ever since I had begun this
