Amanda climbed down the stairs slowly, she was thinking about what happened yesterday. She touched her neck and felt a pain. She fisted her hand into a ball and clenched her jaw, as she raised her head up, her gaze met with Mr Gilbert and Derek sitting on the sofa watching a football match.She shot them with a deadly glare and turned. "I don't want to be a weak vessel to them, it is better to avoid them than to face them." She turned and began to walk back to her room.Derek gave out a chuckle and called her."Amanda come back here." He instructed in a command tone."That's how when has always been, always ordering, instructing and commanding around." Amanda thought and stood still. She turned around and walked to him."His words always sound like a magic to her as his words always send a shiver down my spine." She thought and stood in front of them."Why are you doing all this." Derek suddenly asked after few minutes of silence. She wasn't expecting him to ask such question from her
Anthony drove into the compound with a great speed, then he stopped the car after parking it properly. The security men ran to the car and opened the door for the both of them. They came out in style. Sonia looked round the compound and smiled. "This place is beautiful and clean, is this also your house?." Sonia complimented and asked as she continued admiring the house. "I always make sure I take good care of what is truly mine. This is one of my houses, I know you might be wondering why this is my house." Anthony stated, Sonia tilted her neck towards his direction. "You are right, you told me that place was the only house you have." She replied him immediately. "Yes I said so because that is the only house my family knows about, I have three more houses to my name apart from this two you be seen." He explained. "I get it now but why did you hide it from your family at least you built them with your hard-earned money, you should be able to boast with it." "You knew what happen
Amanda peeped through her door and saw no one, she hurried out and started running away, she stopped right on her track as soon as she saw her two brother sitting of the sofa."Do they have to sit there all the time, they should be out by now working out their asses but no they prefer watching over me all the time." She thought and knotted her brows in disappointment."I can't go anywhere without passing through that place, I can't go out of the window because everywhere is tightly secured. What should I do?. I can't promise and fail her, I need to get myself out of this place." She thought, sighed and rested her back against the pillar behind her. Her mood lightened up when an idea struck her brain."There is always a way out for me." She muttered and smiled. She ran back into her room.She took a handbag from her collections, dropped her credit card inside it and changed her shoes to a normal slippers. She smiled into the mirror and walked out.She climbed down the stairs, his broth
Many waiters rushed to meet Anthony and Sonia as they got to the door."Good day, you are welcome to Lumia Restaurant. We are happy to meet you sir, I hope you will enjoy this restaurant." A fair young lady welcomed them, she smiled through out the welcoming."Show us to a private lounge where I can have a personal moment with my girlfriend." Anthony said, the waiters bowed and led them in."Here sir, there is a large table for two over there, we decorated the table with a lot of flowers, chocolates and other confectioneries. There is a slow music playing, if you don't like the song don't hesitate to tell me. If you felt the colours aren't your type, we will be glad to change it for them and if you need anything you can all any of us because your well being is our concern." A waiter explained to them with a heart warming smile."This is really nice, please stay near so that we won't have to go extra miles before we get to any of you." Sonia said, The waiter smiled and faced Sonia."Yo
Mike walked in to his hotel room and slumped on the bed. He played a song and increased the volume and danced to the song while packing his luggages into his mini box. He took the file and smelled it, he hasn't opened it ever since he collected it from Anthony, he has done his calculations and planned his life for the next 10 years. "Mike you are the most fortunate person on earth, you become a billionaire without working hard for it. I am lucky." He screamed and jumped up happily. After packing, he went ahead to have a meal. Sandra walked up to him. "Good day sir, we are pleased to know that you love this hotel. Mr Anthony told us you would be leaving today so here are your unsettled bills." She stated politely. Mike dropped his spoon and collected it, his eyes widened when he saw a big amount written boldly on the piece of paper. "What!!! This is too much, I spent only a day in this hotel, what if I spend a whole week." Mike complained while still staring at it. "We calculate
Andrew watched as Grace, Mr Gilbert and Mrs Gilbert attacked each other, he was lost of words but he has to stop what was going on."What do I do?." He asked himself, suddenly, he screamed out and all of them kept quiet."You are all adults and this matter should be settled amicably." Andrew uttered and looked at each other, he didn't know when those words came out but he really hoped it could calm the situation."Never, I won't settle this amicably, how can Gilbert do that to me." Mrs Gilbert cried."I know how much it hurts but you can't solve it with noises." He said in a soft tone."It has to be resolved, she has had Gilbert to herself for too long, it is my time to have him to myself." Grace snapped.The door opened, Sonia and Anthony walked in together.Sonia was about greeting but she stopped when she saw that the atmosphere wasn't peaceful and gentle, Anthony noticed that too."What is happening here and who is this lady?." Anthony asked, looking from Andrew to his mother and
Mrs Gilbert stood by the window crying her eyes out, she never think her husband could sleep with a woman behind her back. Mr Gilbert walked in and sighed. "I don't want to see you, please just go out of the room. I am begging you Jack please leave." Mrs Gilbert pleaded in a broken voice.Jack is the other name of Mr Gilbert."She has never gotten angry with me like this, the last time she called my second name was when she was in danger, that was 20 years ago. I can feel it, she is deeply hurt." Mr Gilbert thought and tears rolled down his cheek as he realised how hurt his wife was."I am very sorry Sofia, it wasn't intentional, I feel attacked whenever I remember what happened then, I felt guilty please don't send me away." He pleaded. Mrs Gilbert turned and wiped off her tears."If you were truly guilty then you should have told me yourself, Grace doesn't have to be the first person to tell me about this." She yelled at him."It is because I don't want to hurt you, that's why I
Anthony came out of the house and dropped a bag into the boot, and waited for Sonia in the car. Few minutes later, she came out of the house with a black handbag hung on her as her arm, she wore a yellow gown with black stripes."Why do you have to take too long to prepare, i have been waiting for 30 minutes now. " He scolded her."I am very sorry baby, I was getting ready and I was trying to dress like the formal me but it seems I am not going to be like that again." She said sadly."You haven't removed your mask, you are still Sonia to me." He teased and walked closer to her. He removed her mask and kissed her forehead. "You now look like Lisa." He said and winked at her."Thank you." She appreciated and pecked her on her cheek."We need to go now, or else we would miss out flight." Anthony shouted, Sonia looked at him weirdly."You are just trying to make me feel as I made us late. We are going with your private jet and there is no point of missing the flight. If you complain too
