Stephanie shook her head and walked past her as if she did not care what was happening. Megan was worried. What the hell just happened? Why is she running off and most importantly, where was she running to?Megan heard the sound of footsteps from the rear and turned to see a couple of men dressed in black suit and in the middle of them all, she saw her brother, Enzo. What the hell is going on? They were already married so she could not even think it was a problem where he spring a surprise proposal on her so what is she running from?She turned to run after Stephanie who did not stop.“Stephanie, wait! Talk to me please.”“Did you know? It is just t even possible that you don’t know. How did I allow myself to be fooled by you and your family!”“I don’t understand you, Steph!” Megan shouted as she closed in on the girl who has slowed down a little.“Your brother is in the Mafia and to make or worse, he is not just on the Mafia, he is THE Mafia boss! How did I miss that?”Megan smile
Brittany shook with anger as she barges into her room. The stupid girl was right. Alex has treated her the worst possible way this five years even to the point that she had been pushed to do something incredibly crazy.Her mind flew to the incident that day back then. Seth has been at the club with Alex and saw how nonchalant and unmoving he was. It made her angry and she thought of resorting to what her mother had told her.She has been reluctant to do that before because she has thought that Alex would somehow someday soften towards her but it wasn’t looking like something that would happen qqsoon. She bit her lips aa she grinded against the unmoved man who just sat there as if he would rather be elsewhere.“Can you not look like you are about to be murdered right now? Touch me baby, please.”“I did not choose to be here, Brittany and I really couldn’t care less.”She rolled her eyes as she got off him and grabbed a drink. The bottle was full and seeing as he was too into his phon
Alex was so angry that he grabbed Brittany by the neck angrily. His first instinct had been to slap her but he would never raise his hands to beat a woman in his life.“Between you, who slept with another man apart from her husband and Megan, who is the whore, huh?”Brittany coughed and Alex released his hold on her neck a little. “Don’t you ever say that about her again to my face, is that clear?”He had already hurt Megan than he should have and the least he could do is stand up for her when she needed him and he would never allow anyone badmouth her to his face. They could do it behind his back but never to his face.He released her me k and turned around to leave bit just as he reached the door, Brittany’s desperate voice called out to him.“Why can’t we go back to the way we used to be, Alex? You know I love you and I would do anything that would make you happy. Even if there is something you want me to change, I will gladly do it, for you.”Without turning back, Alex scoffe
Alex rushed out of the car towards the unsuspecting duo.“How could you?” He said as he grabbed Damien and turned him around to face him before throwing him a punch on the face. Megan exclaimed in shock.“Who do you think you are?” Damien asked as he tried to free himself from the man in front of him. It was dark and he could barely see.The light from the street flickered towards them and Alex’s eyes widened in horror as he saw the man he was just about to fight with was Alex, the infamous most powerful business tycoon all over.What the hell is he doing here? And why was he getting angry? He did not understand.“How dare you touch my woman?”His woman? What is he talking about? He looked from Megan to ex and s silent realization began to dawn on h. This is crazy.”“Damien, you need to go home?”“Wait, what?”Why is she sending her home instead of the intruder? Is she trying to say she feels safer in the hands if this ruthless man than him? He felt dejected.“I cannot leave you here
He has dreamt of this for a long time and he was starting to get really excited as he kissed Megan. His mind flew to the intimate money they last shared and how or felt too surreal that he was here kissing her again right now.Megan’s hands remained on his chest trying to push him away but it was all to no avail. She had never met someone as stubborn as he is and he was too strong. She did not want this. He has hurt her too much and letting him back into her life right now would only out her in a very dangerous and difficult situation especially because of her son who now already saw Damien as his father. She felt bad for how she had treated Damien. He should behave been the one who stayed because now look at the result if the choice she made, a super strong man trying to force himself on her.She felt the ground leave her feet as Alex swung her into his arms whine still kissing her. Did he not even care what she thought about this at all? She could scream but she did not want to att
The next dayMegan banged lots and hard on the closed door without any response. She wasn’t sure someone was even inside but she was certain this was the right address and the occupant had all the reasons in the world to not answer her but she was relentless.After the incident at the party, Stephanie has moved out of Enzo’s house and since then, she has been looking all over for her until she found out from a source where she lives now. She did not go to the office nor did she attend any of the meetings she was supposed to attend. Megan worried that Stephanie would hurt herself and that was why it was important that she found her.She heard the sound of movement far in the room, it was obvious that the person inside did not intend to open the door but she would keep trying.“Steph, I will not leave here until you open so it’s better you do that now, so that we can get this over with.”There was no response. She listened for a while and knocked again.“Looks like it will rain. Do you
Evelyn was angry as she paced the room. The door of her office was thrown open by a sad looking Brittany who stormed into the room.What now? She thought there were a lot of things going on with her right now and a child’s tantrum is not really something she wanted to deal with at the moment.“What is going on?”“Mum, I can’t stand Alex anymore. He disregards me every chance he gets and it is quite sickening.”“What has he done this time?”“I really don’t know how to explain it but I just...”“Actually, there may not be time to care about Alex or whatever he is up to because we have more pressing issues at hand right now.”“Like what? What could be more important than how your only daughter feels in her marriage?”“We are still trying to find your father just in case you forgot. Have you heard any words from the investigator?”Brittany calmed down immediately. This really is more important than her useless whining so she sat down and shook her head.Their father has been lying unconsc
Megan walked away angrily. Things didn't turn out the way she expected and she was so furious that she barged out of the building, she ignored everyone including the workers who greeted her as she went. Anyone could tell from a distance that she wasn't in a very good mood.“Why can't she answer us? We are not responsible for her problems now, are we?” some of the workers murmured.“You haven’t heard, her husband does not treat her well and it has turned her into a cranky old hag.”Two slender girls who had just walked past her whispered loud enough for her to hear, making her stop her steps.She turned around and stomped towards them “What did I hear you just say about me?”They looked between each other and shook their heads without saying anything. “Didn't you guys have so much courage earlier ? Say it again to my face!”They did not say anything still and this annoyed her more.“You are both fired!”The girls looked shocked.“We are so sorry ma'am, it's a slip of the tongue”. The
