Accomplice With A Cost

Vivian’s POVThe interrogative officer stared long and hard at me, fishing for fault. He still hadn’t talked about Ken’s statement, which even got me really scared and worried, but I tried to maintain composure so that I would not be easily roped in.I even began to think of a possible convincing lie I could come up with even if Ken had decided to sell me out just to save his name and reputation.“What is your relationship with Jane?” He broke the ice after a couple of minutes and asked. I almost suffocated out of relief, if that was even possible, because I hadn’t expected to be asked that question. He thought he was begin to prod me about what I had found when I entered Jane’s room, or even inform me whether Ken’s account on the incident checks mine as well. I itched to find out what Ken told them, but asking would also draw suspicions, and I wasn’t ready for that. I wouldn’t even get out of it if I dragged myself into it.Anyway, I thought about my response deeply, because every r

Hell And Brimstone

Syrus’s POV“Davis, what is going on? Why haven’t I seen or heard from Vivian?” Syrus barked at his lawyer. He was almost about to burst open in anger.“Mr. Vale, please calm down,” Davis said over the phone, cringing at Syrus’s yelling tone.“Do not ask me to calm down! You said the court has signed the legal action against her, and it has been delivered to her, but I still cannot see her!” Syrus bellowed. He was almost tearing the roof of his office down.“I said it was delivered to her residential address, not exactly to her directly,” Davis tried to clarify.“You must be playing with me! Isn’t it your job to deliver it to her by hand?” Syrus queried Davis.“Mr. Vale, I understand your predicament, and I sympathize with you, but that is exceeding my job,” Davis said, trying not to get as offended as he really was about Syrus’s tone. “My job as your lawyer is to draft out the legal action, push it to the court, convince them to sign it, then make certain that it reaches the recipient

Tiny Lies

Vivian’s POVI did not know I would survive the night, because of the nightmare I had.Last night, after I got back from the station and went straight to bed, I saw Jane in my dream.She looked scared and sad, and she continued to plead with me to save her, but I kept giving her the cold shoulders. She had tried to hold onto me, but I shoved her off and walked away from her.I jerked awake, shivering and afraid. I grabbed the bottle of water by my bedside and gulped thirstily. I could no longer return to sleep for fear of seeing Jane in my sleep again, but even being awake was scarier, because I kept feeling and thinking that every creepy sound was her.The entire night, I was haunted by the thought of Jane.I brushed and showered early in the morning; never have I been grateful that it was dawn already, because the night had been too scary and creepy for me. When I heard a knock on the door, I jerked and even almost passed out in shock. Who the heck could be at the door this early? T

You Messed Things Up!

Syrus’s POVSyrus went back to his office, leaving strict warnings to his secretary not to let anyone into his office.Then Syrus soaked himself in grief.Vivian’s father had hit him where it hurt the most. Syrus remembered the first time he had realized his father’s absence; he had eavesdropped on his parent’s argument without his knowledge.“Are you going to keep doing this?! What about Syrus and Bonnie? How do I keep making excuses for you?!” Nancy had yelled at Syrus’s extremely absent father.Growing up, Syrus had barely seen his father. He and Bonnie only saw him once a year, or twice if he was being generous to them. “I don’t care what you want to tell them, Nancy!” His father had bellowed angrily.Syrus had been shocked and hurt. Their mother had told them constantly that their father could not attend their school parties, prom, school games, birthdays, because he was extremely busy with building the company, and she had made them understand that it was necessary that their f

He Knows A Lot More

Vivian’s POVAs I sat across from Ken on the table, I asked myself how I got entangled in all of these.“Would you like some cheese and eggs?” Ken asked with a smile. “They are definitely good for you, especially for the babies,” Ken said, and without waiting for my response, he turned to the waitress standing by and said, “Kindly get two plates of cheese and eggs, and lukewarm glasses of water for us.”“Coming right up,” she said and left.Ken turned to me. “Does she remind you of Jane?” He asked.I shook my head, unwilling to indulge in the conversation. The last thing I wanted was to be here with Doctor Ken, having lunch. Surprisingly, Lori had come to me with a flowing gown that had rose petals all over, and yapping about Ken, her cousin.“I am so delighted that Ken seems to have developed some sort of interest in you,” Lori had said as she pushed the dress gently to me. “He has been way too single for long, and that needs to change,” she had said with a girly giggle. It was the f

An Evil Encounter

Vivian’s POVIt was as though I was dreaming, because what kind of conversation was I having with my supposed doctor? How did I get into this mess? I definitely did not do anything to deserve this! All I had done had been to get registered just like every other pregnant woman, so this just doesn’t make any sense to me.“What do you know about me?” I asked, my heart beating rapidly. Somehow, I was scared of what Ken would say. I know I had met a couple of tricky and bad people; Georgia was one of them, but this was on a different level, and to think that I just walked right into it.“I know that you are the ex-wife of Syrus Vale, who is still very much alive,” Ken divulged.My mouth fell open in shock.“How did you know?” I asked Ken, shocked to my very core. This was a random meeting, not planned, right? Lori could not have set me up like this. She did not strike me as someone who was capable of doing such, besides, she had given me a harmless recommendation, so how did Ken know? “I

A Challenge

Georgia’s POVGeorgia waited for Jessica to arrive before she would leave for her interview. It was in two hour’s time, and if Jessica made it to her hotel room in time, then she would be able to meet up with her appointment.Georgia had been staying in the hotel discreetly since she left Syrus’s house. She did not want to return to her aggrieved and bitter mother, because she knew that somehow, her mother would know that her ploy to get Syrus in bed again was futile.But thankfully, she had Syrus’s mother’s so she really does not need her mother’s negative energy. However, Georgia was gradually running low on cash.“Thank goodness for this interview that I have been able to secure,” Georgia told herself. This was a big show, and after she was done, she would be paid a handsome fee; that was what basically excited Georgia, not that she gave a damn about the bloody show. Once she gets her fee, she would be able to pay for a few more days at the hotel, while she also lobbied for anothe

Trapped

Vivian’s POVI returned to the room restless, agitated, and more disoriented.I thought of avoiding Ken, but I could only achieve that when I leave the town, and that would be highly impossible seeing that Jane’s death is still under thorough investigation.I was desperate to know how Ken got to find out secrets about me, because he refused to divulge. I wasn’t even answering Syrus’s name, so did his investigation lead him to Syrus? There were questions running through my head that I needed answers to. Questions like why did Ken pick me out of all his patients to get close to. He was an attractive, good-looking young man who could get any woman he wanted, so why me, a pregnant, lonely woman who waits tables at a small coffee shop?I left my room and went over to the coffee shop. Deep down, I had the feeling that Lori was involved in all of these. Deep down, I knew that Lori knew something, because she was the one who directed me to her so-called cousin’s hospital. She had also been th

Turned Down

Georgia’s POVGeorgia paced around her hotel room as she dialed Syrus’s cell number over and over again. She needed to do something really fast, otherwise this juicy deal would slip through her fingers, and on the other hand, if she is dropped by the show, the whole world would know, and it would be disastrous for her.“Pick your damn phone, Syrus!” Georgia yelled in frustration, almost smashing her phone on the wall. She was growing increasingly frustrated, because she had little or no time. If she could not get Syrus to join her in the interview as her partner, just as she had labeled him to be, then she would be dropped like a piece of old meat.And if that happens, Georgia’s career, the same one she had built with blood and sweat would take a downward turn, and that would be the end of her, and her godforsaken mother would laugh her to ruin.Georgia would rather die than let that happen,She continued to dial Syrus’s number. “Please, Syrus, pick up the phone!” Georgia begged eve

Ruined

Georgia’s POV“Excuse me, but my money only expired a few hours ago,” Georgia said, her heart pounding slightly.This was obviously not good at all, because she did not have a dime with her, and this could get dirty if it ever gets out.“According to the policy of our hotel, you are either to renew payment or face eviction thirty minutes after expiry, and Miss Georgia, you have way exceeded that limit,” one of them said.“Can you give me a couple of minutes? I promise to pay up,” Georgia pleaded, even though she did not have anyone in mind that would give her any money, but she just needed them to give her some space so that she could think and act fast.This was certainly not good for her career.If Georgia knew that they upheld such a strict policy, she would not have lodged here in the first place. When Georgia moved into the hotel some days back, and she had been given their policy booklet to read, she had only flipped through without actually reading it, because she had felt that
