CEO's REDEMPTION SPYING. THE SHOCK
It has been three days since I had that argument with Ellie. Since then, she has been cooked up in her room. She only comes out for meals when she feels like it. The bitch is too arrogant for an intruder guest that she is. She doesn't talk to anyone at all, unless when she feels like insulting someone and parading her arrogance. Honestly, I am at the hang of it with her arrogance.Jerol is conducting his own investigations, but these fools are no ordinary fools. They are a couple of smart-asses! They have covered their trails so well that nothing is coming out of the investigations. Nothing at all, and I am getting so pissed because I want the truth discovered as soon as possible so that this can be over already.With the Grego idiot playing cool and dedicated by trying to learn about the family business, it is so difficult to find something to pin on him. But, shouldn't that be another sign? Don't ask me a sign of what, but ask yourself, why now? Why is he interested to work just now
CEO's REDEMPTION HARD TASK
I am literally pleading with my stubborn heart not to pop out of its cage as I step out of the car at the ample parking of this castle. It's throbbing with robust and boisterous agonizing rebounds of echoes. The face of my mother in the company of Ellie and Grego is the only thing I a seeing with my vague blurry sight as I saunter towards the house.My mother, with my mortal enemies? How unbelievable!Mark has asked me countless times if I am okay but my voice sunk somewhere deep in my belly after authenticating the info he brought, rendering me voiceless. Even now as I reach the door, I can still hearken to the concerned voice of my chauffeur asking if I am okay, but how can I reply? How can I be okay? How in hell can this be okay? The evidence I am cuddling so tight in my arms on my phone more than holds no doubts whatsoever that my mother has connived with my enemies to ravage me, but I am still vetoing to believe that she wasn't yet done with me when she sold me off like trash. D
CEO's REDEMPTION THE WORRY
I was about to bang my butt back on the bed and reminisce about Jerol's inconceivable task, perhaps ponder a little about giving it a try for his sake because I understand his predicament, or follow him, but a bell of sense chimed wildly in my head. A storm just stormed out in my presence. A tragedy is about to befall this family if I sit and fold my arms even for a second. There is no time.I grab my phone and run out of the room, running down the stairs but without forgetting that I am carrying a life in my belly. I cross the sitting room without minding the stranded servants. They must have been flabbergasted by Jerol's eerily demeanor, and now I am here topping up their amazement as I rush out like a person running for her dear life without sparing them a glance.I spot Mark talking to some God knows who on the phone. I howl his name, scaring the hell out of him and everyone outside. None is concentrating on their duties. They are all in awe of this live Netflix movie. "At your s
CEO's REDEMPTION DIGGING THE TRUTH. MORE PAINS
"What the hell are you doing here? Last I checked, we...""We had nothing to talk about. We had cut any kind of bond that tied us together and had a mutual understanding to steer clear out of each other's business. But you just don't know when or how to quit, do you?" I fume."I still don't understand what your unpleasant visit is all about." She retorts, playing dumb."This, Gracia!" I show her the photos on my phone one by one up to the fourth one. "Explain this!" I state when the is done glaring at the photos as if she does not understand anything.No, correction. As if she does not care at all!"And who are you to demand explanations from me, Tessa? Who do you think you are to stand in front of me and throw questions about what I am doing with my life?" She spits.Hello? Is that even a question?"I wouldn't give a damn about your disgusting life whatsoever if you were not meddling in mine." I yell at her, shocking her as she leans her face backwards, shock gushing over her. I comp
CEO's REDEMPTION CHAOS
"You keep watch, Mark." I say as I leap out of the car as it stops at the parking.With more dismay and everything that fear depicts mounting in me every step that I take, I start running towards to door, but my urgency is cut off as Mrs McCall makes her way out of the house together with Terris and some female servants aiding an agonizing Ellie. She is groaning in immense pain.I detested the way she hugged her belly until today, but now I feel like hugging it for her to ease the pain she is nursing. So, it is her voice that I heard through the call? Hang on! She still has two months to go before her due date. What the heck happened?"Take her to the car." Mrs McCall orders."Mother?" I call because no one seems to notice me. I understand them though. I am as scared as them with Ellie's condition. "What happened?" I implore as I rush towards Mrs McCall."Go and stop that beast inside before something worse happens, Tessa. I will accompany Ellie to the hospital." That is all she says
CEO's REDEMPTION EMOTIONAL PAIN
We crouch at the seat beside Ellie's bed at the hospital who is fast asleep.After that horrendous fiasco back at home, I had to rush here to the hospital and check on her and Ellie while Mr McCall had to stay back and wait for the police and watch over Grego. I left their family doctor already attending to Grego's wounds. That was the best option. To be honest, this is the most disastrous and awful day of my life. From finding out that my mother is my malignant rival now, to confronting her which left me almost shuttered, to witnessing Jerol nearly killing someone, and what stings the most, him walking out on me like he did not want me close to him at all. He left as if I was an alien that he did not recognize at all. Like he did not even want to rest his sight on me even for a second. Like, like he was so pissed off with me."Don't worry, my dear! I am sure he just needed to cool some steam off for a while. He will come around. You will see." Mrs McCall consoles. Honestly, these f
CEO's REDEMPTION DEEP AFFECTION
"You know, Tessa!" Mrs McCall snaps me from my engrossed thoughts about Jerol losing his temper because of Ellie.Don't censure my mood swings and upheavals on that whole new revelation. You understand the law of love, right? Jealousy and possessiveness go hand in hand with love. You understand that clingy sense of yearning and even demanding to be the only one your loved one cares about? Yes, that!Plus, I know she is pregnant and all, with a child whose real father is yet to be identified. I know he has shown no interest whatsoever in her since her return. He has not given me any reason to be insecure. But hey! They have a history together - deep history however twisted and doubtful it seems. She might have not loved him, but he did love her with all his heart. I am a witness to what damage she brought upon him when she spit him out. I became a victim of the bitterness he felt for losing her. So, can you blame me for feeling this way after learning that he went wild after she got hu
CEO's REDEMPTION PAINFUL TRUTH
"Everything is all okay, ma'am! Your daughter is perfectly fine." The doctor says after checking on me, and I wink my eyebrows at my so overly worried-for-nothing mother-in-law.I love it all the same that I am feeling a mother's love and care for the first time in my life. It's such a sweet intoxicating feeling."Okay, doc. And she? How are her results?" Mother asks, referring to Ellie who is just opening her eyes."She is also fine. There was a bleeding due to the fall but we were able to stop it on time. It was harmless. You did well bringing her to the hospital right away. I would recommend she takes total rest for a couple of days." The kind doctor explains."Okay. I will make sure of that doctor. So, everything is okay with her and the baby? Nothing to worry about?" She implores.This woman is in such a tight spot. She has to care for a woman whose unborn child belongs to one of her unknown sons who are apparently at gross odds with each other. This is not easy at all. I love he
