There is a mix up."Isaiah stretched his hand to collect the result sheet but Asher drew it back. "She is the perfect person. She is truly Miss Hall," he laughed. "I was just kidding." he cracked and gave him the sheet.Isaiah glanced through it and squeezed it, rolling it into a ball. "You know, this is a waste of paper. You should have just shredded it."Isaiah threw the rolled paper into the bin. "Take care of it." He said and walked past him."Wait up Isaiah, I need to ask you a question."Isaiah stopped walking but didn't turn back."After defeating Steve as you plan, what would you do next?"Isaiah glanced at him over his shoulder and smirked. "Then, I don't care what would happen anymore.""Are you really sure about this?""I have made my decision since the day I found out about Steve's involvement in my mother's death. I will surely end his life and probably give in to death." he said and left.Asher stared at him until he was finally out of sight. He knitted his brows and lo
Zoey stood on her spot, not moving an inch. Her brain screamed at her to move but she couldn't. She was dumb stuck staring at them.The same people who hurt her three years ago. Why was she feeling a build up of hurt in her heart? The memories she wanted to forget rushed back to her again. Philip, noticing her staring at them, drew Rina closer and deepened the kiss. Seeing her hurt was what he wanted.Seeing what was going on, Carissa stood in front of Zoey, blocking her view so she wouldn't witness their act anymore."We have a lot of work to do that would earn us cool cash. We can't waste our time staring at people who are ruining their lives with their joblessness." she said out loud to the hearing of Rina and Philip."Oh baby, two baby penguins are watching us. What should we do about them?" Rina asked, louder than Carissa this time.Philip smirked and glanced at Zoey who still remained in her position. "Why should we worry about them when we are enjoying ourselves?" he asked and
Isaiah took Zoey's hand and interlocked their fingers.Zoey's heart skipped at the sudden gesture. She never expected it and so was dumbstruck.Laura on the other hand stared at their locked fingers with shock written all over her face. The news was true and there was no other way to believe that."I don't think I gave you the right to bother my girlfriend."She smirked painfully and bit her lower lips. The pain she felt that moment was visible. "So you left me for someone like her? Someone as poor looking as she is?" she asked bitterly."Don't you dare call her poor.""I mean, this is so poor of you Isaiah. You left someone as classy as me for someone who can't even dress properly."Zoey felt insulted and so looked at herself from head to toe. Actually, what she wore was too simple. She was just going for some photoshoots and dressing heavily would only make her work uneasy.She wanted to say something but swallowed her words. She only had enough on her head than to reply to Laura an
"How dare you insult me?""That is not an insult. It is a fact. Now live with it and eat."She raised her fist to give him a punch on his nose but when she heard a gasp behind her, she released her fist and gently placed her palm on his cheek."What a smooth cheek you have." she said, forcing a smile.Isaiah was taken aback by her sudden action and raised a brow, with an expression that was asking what was wrong with her.She moved her eyeball to the side, trying to tell him that some people were behind them.Isaiah looked back and when he saw no one, he pulled her hand away and continued eating like he doesn't care at all.Zoey quickly looked back and noticed there was no one looking at them, instead it was just a couple having their time together.She swallowed hard and continued her food silently as she was too embarrassed to look at Isaiah."Don't think I mean any word I said. You don't have a smooth cheek. I thought I was being watched." she finally said, trying to justify her ac
He tried to turn on the car but Isaiah was quick enough to punch him hard on his cheek. Losing control of the wheels while trying to nurture the pain he felt, Isaiah opened the door and dragged him out.Isaiah gritted his teeth and said to him. "You have been hiding from me for three years. Let's see how you will manage to escape this time.""Calm....calm down brother. Let's talk this out." Steve tried to plead for mercy, seeing the anger in Isaiah's eyes, but it all fell on deaf eyes."I don't mind killing you right now and ending everything. You deserve to die!" he said and punched him hard on his jaw again, causing him to bleed from his nose."Brother let's talk this out.""You killed my mother! What's there to talk about? You ended everything then!" he yelled and gave him a punch again on the jaw, the next on his nose and he went on until Steve was bloodied.He wanted to give him a punch for the last time but stopped with his hand held up. His arms were acting up and he couldn't m
Astonishing, was an understatement to what she looked like that night. Zoey slowly walked towards where he stood, maintaining a smile that could make any man fall to their knees that moment.Her dress was so mesmerizing. Her face was so pretty. She was perfect!She stopped before him and when she saw how quiet he was and just staring at her, the smile faded and was replaced with questions. "What is it? Am I not looking good enough?" she asked and began to scrutinize the black gown she wore. It was the gown he bought for her.She then clicked her teeth. "I told Carissa not to do too much," she muttered and looked back at him."I can go get my face done again if it is too much."Isaiah looked away and sighed. He just got swayed by her beauty. He cleared his throat and looked back at her. "I never asked for that. You are late. I told you to get here thirty minutes ago.""I apologize. Took so long to get me dressed up. Needed to look good because of the guests that would be attending.""
Isaiah's gaze fell on Zoey's face and seeing her reaction gave him the satisfaction he wanted so he went on. "The lady I came in with is my fiancee, as we are set to get married soon." He dropped the bomb and that made Zoey's heart drop down to her stomach because she wasn't expecting the news.She wasn't expecting the sudden marriage announcement. He shouldn't be announcing their marriage, that would only make things worse.She wanted to scream at him from where she stood, but that would be embarrassing to her and of course, people were there and that wouldn't be the right thing to do at all."She has brought meaning to my life since we started dating and now, we are about to profess our love forever to each other." he continued.The spotlight came on her and the cameras were made to face her. Zoey felt her leg wiggle, as she tried to avoid the gaze of the people around but there was nothing she could do. No matter where she turned, people were staring.Isaiah went on with his speech
Zoey struggled to get out of his hold but he gripped her tightly, leaving no room for her to escape.The others were also trying to touch her.There was no one to call for help. She was so angry at Isaiah and also lost in thought that she went down that quiet and lonely road, now, her life was in danger.Her mind went to Isaiah and she couldn't help but wrinkled her nose. It was all his fault. If anything happens to her then her blood would be on his head."Please I need to leave, I have nothing to offer you guys." She tried to plead but that made them laugh at her mockingly. She could perceive their alcoholic breath but it wasn't her concern at that moment."Not so fast sweetheart. You are going nowhere. You do have something to offer.""How about we have some fun together tonight?" Another asked.Tears flowed down her eyes as they pushed her to the ground and surrounded her fully aware of what they had in mind.The one who was the leader slowly unzipped his trouser and gave a signa
