ETHAN WESTON Two days passed away , almost being unnoticed due to how fast time flew and by 9am, I was still on my bed. I was used to waking up so late on Mondays, maybe because I've always hated that day ..My phone rang interrupting my peaceful sleep and with a sigh alongside a groan, I raised my hand to the side of the bed to get the device..I swiped green with my eyes still closed, consequently making me have no idea of who the caller was and with that, I muttered a ‘hello', raising the device to my ear.“Boss, Xing woke up at the hospital”That information made me sprang up immediately..That was my agent calling!“What!” I exclaimed.“We got the news just now, he survived the poison” he said again.“You know that can't happen! He mustn't survive!” I retorted“Exactly why I'm calling you boss, we need to do something fast” he responded“You --”My second phone instantly rang and immediately my gaze caught the caller's ID, I sighed. It was Dad and he had definitely gotten the n

LEVI BANKS“I think we should just get Sophia an apartment till the contract is over”Jessica's words made me turn immediately. My eyes landed on her side view while her gaze remained on the road as she drove..There was no single emotion in her eyes, not a single one!..“And why would I do that?" I raised my brow.None of us has said anything to each other since the drive started and now she was up with this?..“I mean, she has about three weeks remaining, we need to start preparing her for the separation. It's just a suggestion.... Sir” I noticed that she hesitantly muttered the last word but I didn't pay much attention to it.“I rented her with a huge sum of one million dollars..” I reminded..“Yes and --”“She's going to be with me until the very last minute” I added, consequently interrupting her own speech.“I might even renew the contract, who knows” I shrugged, returning my gaze to the road but then I noticed the car suddenly screeching to stop at that instant..I turned to Je

SOPHIA LANGFORD I stared at myself in the mirror for the umpteenth time, smiling so prettily while Ellen watched me from the dressing table side where I'd placed my phone which we were having a video call with.“Are you sure I look good enough?” I asked, twirling around and allowing my long hair flow with the gentle breeze.“You know you do Soph!.. Those long flawless legs exposed is a seductive tool on their own and then your curves in that bum short?.. girl, you'll literally make him go insane in the braless state that you're in!” she squealed and I giggled.“I feel so special” I blushed, remembering Levi's words and kiss this morning. He was so happy and relieved so I literally got all the sweetest words he had in his heart.Since I told Ellen about what happened in the room this morning, she had actually been giving naughty ideas and even insisted I dress so attractive enough for him..“Last days with a bill

LEVI BANKS Two days passed without a goodbye kiss and finally, it was Xing's burial day. I couldn't deny feeling so reluctant to go and I knew it was nothing but because of the embarrassment of being labelled as the suspect.The past two days had been hectic and tough. Having cops coming around for interrogation and demands for my presence became a usual thing and at one point, Sophia had to cry while lamenting her fear.“Xing is one of the most important and influential men in the world so his murder case won't be something his family and the cops take lightly." I'd told her.Jessica and I had also spoken several times and after the burial, today had been scheduled for a meeting with his family.“You're teary-eyed?..” Sophia asked as I screeched the car to a halt in front of the spacious parking space where the burial was to take place.“Who doesn't get emotional on a burial ceremony" I sighed, alighting f

LEVI BANKS “What the hell do you take me for?!” Another yell escaped my lips as I landed the second punch on Ethan's nose, consequently making him bleed. “Babe!" Sophia cautioned but that was definitely not going to stop my wildness. He shouldn't have uttered those words, he shouldn't!! Ethan staggered with a groan and his guards rushed towards us, aiming their guns at me without a command. I scoffed. “Put those damned guns down now, else I order your arrest!” I ordered without thinking twice. “Coming from a murderer himself” I looked to see Ethan balanced back on his feet with a smirk on his bloody lips. “Watch your words!” I yelled. “I would not stand here and watch you spew out words that degrade me and my wife!” I added. “Seriously?..” he scoffed while I continued boiling in so much rage. Sophia squeezed my palm gently and I understood she was trying to
