“Who is he?” Greg roared, his face slightly twitching due to the intensity of his lividness.“What do you mean Greg?” Elizabeth questioned, Even though her heart was literally in her mouth.“You know what I mean. Who is the new man you are obsessed with, huh?”.Elizabeth starts to laugh hysterically and maniacally. Making Greg confused for a few minutes.“Don't be silly, there is no man and didn't you see in the reports that I got cured of my OCD and no longer obsess over men for a short period of time. I want a divorce”. She exclaimed fiercely.“Then as long as I live in this world then I would never let you have that divorce”. He stated very sternly. He moved angrily towards the door as he couldn't stand being in the same room as Elizabeth right now. But as he got closer to the door he suddenly paused, turning slowly towards Elizabeth whose chest was still heaving.“I strongly doubt you got cured”, he said with a glint before opening the door. As he opened the door he caught his mo
“Calm down, Alex, it's not like I am going to eat your sister or something”, Mike smirked with a sinister gaze.“What the fuck do you mean by that”. He said before turning to Jasmine, giving her a death.“I don't know what you are doing here with him, and I don't even want to know. Just go home. I will get John to take you home and”…..“No, Jasmine took courage, her heart racing like someone who has just participated in a relay race. I won't go home just because you say so”.“I want to have dinner with Mike”, she moved backwards a little, she knew how dangerous Alex could be, but she knew he wouldn't hurt her either.“Huh”! Alex scoffed as if not believing what his ears just heard. He looked at Mike, his eyes had this confidence, confidence that told a cunning tale. His eyebrows arched up suddenly as if finally putting his thoughts together.“Are you guys together?” he suddenly asked. His hands formed into fist.“Alex please calm down”, Megan interjected, but Alex was out of his mind
After the call, Alex got into his car and drove. He had no idea where he was going, but he could not help but drive recklessly. How could he have hurt her? He punched the steering of the car before parking in front of the club.He entered with a heavy heart as he needed a drink to put his emotions in place.“I will have whiskey”. He muttered to the bartender, who quickly obliged to his orders. He knew Alex so well that he feared that if he messed up, he would be six feet down.Soon he returned and gave Alex what he had ordered with all due courtesy before attending to other clients.“I am going to fucking kill you, Mike”, Alex whispered under his breath. That was the way he felt, but would it be fair if he actually killed him? He had been a monster all his life, he dated Mike's sister sometimes back.Mike warned him not to break his sister and he agreed, but later on, She cheated, and he lost interest because he never truly loved her anyways.She tried to get back with him, but he ref
Alex kept pondering on his fight with Mike, as he drove to the hospital, if only he had been calm enough then maybe Megan wouldn't have been in that situation. His thoughts were interrupted as his phone rang.“Hello John”, his voice has this unexplainable tension. Expecting some good news.“Sir madam Megan just woke up, and she asked of you”, John said with relief, he was scared something might happen to Megan because that would only make Alex grow berserk. He couldn't explain how anxious he was when he spotted young miss Jasmine with Mike at the restaurant, he just knew hell will let loose. And it did.“I will be there”, he said Coldly with a deep sigh. He literally drove like a madman to the hospital. As he gets there, his fast-paced steps start to slow down, what if she hates him because of what he did.His hands held the door handle as he gently pushed over, revealing Megan who had this subtle look on her face, her face radiating as a smile filled her face.That smile was what Ale
Greg’s world shattered right before him, memories of how happy he used to be flowed involuntarily through his head. He clenched his jaws as he was not ready to give up the fight with Elizabeth.So he angrily stepped forward to follow Elizabeth upstairs, but he was stopped, someone was tugging hard on his shirt.“Don't be stupid Greg, Mrs. Wilson whispered, you know we literally rely on her family to survive. Do something drastic and then we lose everything”. She looked intently at Greg's eyes that were colourless.“But I love her mom, I can't just let her go”. Tears streamed down his eyes, accompanying his quivering voice.“You will divorce her, Greg, for the betterment of the family and to hold our name high in the society”. Disbelief suddenly flashed through Greg's eyes.“Are you telling me to sacrifice my love and happiness for the name of our family that's already in the mud?”.“Son, this is what is best for you. Elizabeth won't stop here; she will do something drastic soon. Why d
“Yes man. He got the money from the death of his wife”. His friend chuckled, not believing his own words.Greg’s eyes suddenly lit up with hope, maybe his life is not truly over, he doesn't have to commit suicide. Elizabeth was on life insurance. He had heard her and her dad talk about it severally.“What is that look on your face?”. His friend asked curiously, raising his brows.“Nothing, but how does the life insurance thing work”.“Now you are getting me terrified, do you have someone on life insurance?”. His friend's mouth hung open before carving into a broad grin“No but I intend to get one for myself. You know, I have to secure myself”. He said, taking his gaze away from his friend and landing on the empty glass. He didn't want him suspecting everything.“Well, apparently, she was his beneficiary. I mean, she trusted him so much that she put him as a beneficiary and when she died he got over twenty million dollars as the payout”. He even confessed that he didn't know his wife h
Megan smiled brightly when she saw the dress she had been looking for. She almost thought she wouldn't find one to her taste. But common, this boutique was the best and most popular in New York. Her eyes immediately drew to the centrepiece of the display: a breathtaking Alexander McQueen gown.The dress, a masterpiece of haute couture, featured an intricate lace bodice adorned with delicate floral appliqués that cascaded down into a flowing silk skirt.“I will have that one”, she said to the sales assistant who had been following her around ensuring her needs were duly cared for. She was being careful as she didn't want to lose her job.Alex gold had called the manager earlier telling them to attend diligently to miss Megan, whoever failed to do so or disrespected her will face his wrath.And believe her, Alex was not someone you'd like to get in trouble with, she thought while slightly bowing. “Yes ma'am” She replied, walking forward to package her order.“Wait”, Megan called. Here
Somewhere unknown, or maybe it was known, but the lady standing had no idea where she was. Her memories seem to be distorted, as the only thing she could remember was attending her mother's funeral two years ago.Hailey woke up to find herself under a bridge, her skin was clammy and cold. How did she end up here? She was no longer aware of the memories that brought her to trouble.She had kept on walking hoping to find help. But everyone she came across doesn't seem to know who she was.“Excuse me sir. Where am I please”, she asked a random person. Who immediately had a confused expression?“Umm, you are in New York”. He stuttered, looking at her weirdly before walking away. “What is wrong with people these days”, she heard the young man echo. But she couldn't give a flying fuck about his attitude.She had seen earlier on the billboard the current date and it read January 2024. How the hell am I in 2024 if I only have memories from 2021. She whispered as her chest moved up and down, p
