" We meet again Kai Maximilian," Valerie curled her lip pointing a gun at Elon's head.
" What do you want?" he interrogated as another masked man held Xara down.
" Chill, Kai. A little payback won't hurt," she laughed like a maniac.
" Why did I involve myself with you in the first place?" he blurted out.
" Because I could give it to you real good. Something none of your bitches could do," she let out a dry laugh.
" Yeah right,"
" I loved you, Kai, since high school. But you ignored me. You reported to management that I was stalking you and hurt some of the girls you went out with. Of course, I did all that. But I still loved you, so after college, I tracked you. But you didn't recognise me. I had changed. We were fine until Mabel came in, but she was a scaredy-cat so she ran off. Then you went for her, I thought she would leave as her sister did. She didn't. You chose her over m----
" Oh come on, you're boring us with your pity

Epilogue. " So you mean you're part of the Mafia?" Lorenzo asked as they walked along the streets. The street lights laminated their paths as they took a stroll. " Of course, I am their lawyer...a Mafia lawyer," she explained. " Okay, that explains the men you came along with to help us out." " Yeah," she answered. " For how long have you been a Mafia lawyer?" he couldn't help but ask. " After law school, when my dad died. I had no choice but to take over because I was my father's successor that's why he sent me to law school in the first place. At first, I didn't want to be a part of it but I had no choice when he threatened to disown me. I had nowhere to go or to start from so I obeyed him and after he died I became their lawyer. I was sceptical at first but when time went on, I got used to it and decided to stay." she explained. " I see," he answered. Lorenzo and Kenzie headed over to her plac
Xara lay on her worn-out mattress, staring at the ceiling, waiting for the day of her cursed marriage. She had tried several times to change her parent's minds, but to no avail. She didn't want this kind of life for herself. She wanted to graduate, find a job, find true love and then settle down with the man of her dreams. She was a beauty to behold.I guess that ain't happening anytime soon. She thought to herself. Why hadn't she run off, just like her sister Mabel did? She just didn't have the guts to do so. She had always put her family before another thing, and this is what it had landed her into. âMaybe it won't be that bad; at least I get to continue my education and mom and dad live a better life." She tried to convince herself. She heard a knock on her door as her best friend, Alianna entered. âBad time?" She asked her. âDoes it matter anymore?" She sighed as her friend sat beside her. Alianna came from a well-to-do family. She lived in Park Slope, one of the richest neighb
Xara woke up and headed to the bathroom to wash her face and brush her teeth before heading out to the kitchen in her nightwear.âGood morning, MaâI mean, Ms. Xara." Amanda greeted Xara, making her chuckle.âGood morning, Amanda, How was your night?" She replied. âIt was fine, and what of yours? She asked, waiting for a reply, when a beautiful young woman walked into the kitchen wearing sexy night wear. Xara didnât bother asking who she was and where she came from because she already knew the answer. It was obvious her husband preferred being with a whore rather than his wife on their wedding night. How wonderful!âMy breakfast!" She said rudely . Xara looked on and shook her head at her behavior. She was about to take a bite from her food when the lady pulled the plate that was served to Xara and began eating just to rile her up, and it was working.âExcuse me?!." She yelled. âWhat?! Peasant." The woman smirked, knowing she had struck a nerve. â You know I am Kaiâs wife, right?
Two months into her marriage, she hadn't heard from her parents, not her sister. Her husband had travelled out for a business trip; she thought she might get some freedom, but she was wrong; he had made sure his staff and P.A. watched her every move like a hawk.The only things that kept her sane were school, Penny, and Alianna. Penny and Alianna got along so well and she was glad for that. âXara, you zoned out again?" Penny said pausing the movie that they were watching.âI'm fine." She tried convincing her. âNo, you aren't; your mind is somewhere else." She pressed. âIt's just that two months ago I was a struggling poor student, but yet I had my freedom to do anything, but now that I married a rich man, I am regretting every bit of it. This is not how I pictured my happy ever after." She cried out. âIt's going to be fine, " Alianna said, standing at the doorway. âCould this get any worse than it already is?" She whispered. âYou know, I hate to see you like this," Alianna said
Xara expressed her joy every time she left that terrible place to go to school, mentioning this to Penny and Alianna as they accompanied her to her car. They were planning to have a meal together before heading to their next class. It had been several weeks since they last heard from Kai, and she was concerned about him, although she didn't express her worry. He posted on F******k and I*******m to let everyone know that he was okay, and his personal assistant also confirmed that he was doing well. However, she couldn't help but wonder why he never called her to see if she was okay. "Xara, are you okay?" Penny snapped Xara out of her daydream. "I'm doing well," she said with a smile. "Hey, your phone has been ringing non-stop for a couple of minutes." She gave a mischievous smile to her friend, who quickly grabbed her phone to see who was calling. The caller ID on her phone displayed a simple "Unknown" tag, piquing Xara's curiosity. As the car sped away, Xara pres
âHi, beautiful, where's my wife?" Kai asked as he walked past Xara. She had listened to her friend's advice and gotten a makeover. She cut her long boring dark brown hair to shoulder length and had gotten light brown highlights in her hair. She had also discarded her dull, boring and unattractive clothes for sexier ones. â Welcome home, Mr Maximilian," Xara spoke out making his jaw drop.âX-Xara?" He called shocked as she smiled at him. â You had a makeover?" He asked happily for a while. "I hope you're not dressing sexy for any other man, because whatever you do, you'll always be poor, boring Xara Wilson and nothing more." He stormed away. "WHAT EVER DID I DO TO YOU?" She screamed after him as he came to a halt, staring at her sobbing on the floor. "You agreed to marry me; you could have declined, but you married me anyway, knowing full well that I don't love you." He responded softly. "Do you think I had a choice?" She laughed. "Perhaps I should have run away like Mabel, mayb
Kai's attitude towards Xara came back to normal after a couple of days. Even though he didn't hit her, the verbal abuse was so much that she wished she could run away and seek shelter in another city. But she didn't have the guts to do so. She was worried about her mom and what her dad would say or do to her if he found out that she had run away. Mabel, wherever you are, please come and get your man. I can't stand this torture anymore.She cried to herself. She was tired of having hands pointed at her all the time. She was tired of being blamed for no fault of hers. She was tired of being treated like a piece of trash. âWhy do you hate me so so much?!" She burst out to her husband. âWhat did I ever do to deserve this cruel treatment?" She further added. âI never begged to marry you, so why all this?" She sobbed harder until she was out of breathing while kneeling down. Kai noticed she was having a hard time breathing. He
For a couple of days, Xara hadn't seen her husband after what had happened. She hadn't breathed a word to her friends or her mom and they didn't suspect a thing. She behaved normally as if nothing had happened. âSorry, I didn't--- Kai?" Xara called out shocked. Her husband looked dishevelled. It was as if he hadn't showered nor slept for a few days now. He wanted to bypass her and enter into the room but she blocked his path. She couldn't let him beat himself up anymore for this. It had already happened and the harm couldn't be undone. âJust let me through, please." He softly spoke as she made way for him to enter following closely before he shut the door in her face. âKai." She placed her hand on his shoulder. He pushed her hands-off as he was about walking off when she grabbed his arm. â You can't keep doing this to yourself, the harm has already been done. Just try to forget it and move on." She advised. âJust leave." He pointed at
