"or you're asking about how I feel deep in love with you." Kane started. Isadora stood there in shock. Her heart skipping beats on beats. A wide smile spread over her face knowing exactly what was coming. "I thought I had gotten to the end of the tunnel— That I would never find a woman who would love me like you do. But your affection for me surpassed my imagination. I'm not blind, Dora," He paused with a sweet smile. Isadora's face flushed crimson. "I see everything; How you have been caring for me, how you value both big and little time with you." Your presence had been a source of light in this house. In my heart. In my life. You lit my world so bright I outshine everyone. It is you, Isadora." Gently, Kane pulled out the ring from the box. At this point, tears blurred Isadora's eyes, her palm clapped over her mouth as the sheer surprise of the proposal make her heart flutter with butterflies. The tears slipped from her eyes gently when Kane asked. "Will you be my wife, Isad

The day's activities at Globulex drag on, tension from the earlier commotion still clung on the air, staff workers musing over it between transactions. Rossana stood in front of Juliana's desk in her office. Juliana had called her to narrate what happened earlier, and she was hell confused by what she heard. She couldn't believe what she just heard. Her eyes narrowed on Rossana "You're saying Kane made a call and Alexandre Gaspard, the chief of elite police came running to Globulex?" Disbelief laced her voice. "Are you sure it was Kane?" It doesn't just align. Kane, the nobody husbsb.. ex-husband...he made one call that summoned a powerful man in the city's It was really contrasting. It doesn't just add up. "You can ask the other staffs. It was Kane." Rossana repeated firmly. Juliana leaned into the leather swivel chair, her manicured fingers drumming the desk. Her thoughts spiralled, wondering...it couldn't be Kane. She'd lived with Kane for the past three years and he's a nobo

The air in Globulex bank was different that morning when Badmus stepped into the lobby. No usual rhythm of 'Good morning, Sir. Good morning, Sir.' No staff rushing to collect his bag and escort him to his office.Staff members who had once accorded him with respect passed him without even mumbling greetings. They stared at him nodding head and averting face as though his presence was nothing more insignificant than a fly that waltz into the Bank.Badmus stood for some moments, the lobby buzzing around him, his eyes darting around, staff members avoiding contact with him like he carried visual infection, like this place where he once ruled as a king for nine years was only an illusion.The lobby buzzed, clients who had been waiting for hours barking and lamenting."Where the fuck is the receptionist!" "Who employed someone who sleeps like an idiot!" "This is so discouraging. What is Globulex turning into?" Another person hissed, shaking his head.One customer, a cuddly man in white

Juliana arrived at Globulex Bank in a Taxi. She adjusted her gown immediately she stepped down and paid the Taxi without bothering to retrieve change, rolling her eyes and saying with pride and calculated arrogance. "Just keep the change." She turned, waving the old driver off as he continued to mumble quick words of gratitude. She stopped after taking a few steps, her smile bright and glee, marveling at the glass and steel facade of Globulex Bank glistening in the warm afternoons sun like a towering relic rather than a gigantic financial institution.She looked at the premises with a strange newness, bearing the idea that she was going to legally claim the bank in a few minutes after finishing with the paperwork. Her mind ebbed with delight, and it was fully registered with a genuine smile of pride on her face."This is it," She said under her breath triumphantly. "This is what we're talking about. Here comes the Boss lady." With her clutch swinging lightly in her hand, she approac

"The kid is more brilliant than I thought." Caspian grinned, patting the pistol against his cheek in casual playfulness, but his mind calculated fast. "He's bringing cash. $30 million is a hell of a big amount of money. He's right. The bank will flag the transaction instantly." Rico raised a brow, obviously agitated. "Are you sure the kid is gonna come with the money? I mean...most of the hostages in the past couldn't even afford the ransom instantly. Some took months before they could comply." Caspian nodded, his eyes thoughtful. "You're right, Rico," He said. "The kid couldn't have...it's impossible to get such an amount of money. He's just a kid...but stupidly bold. But let him come. He and everyone. They're not leaving here alive." Vanessa's heart dropped. Fear gripped her heart. "N—no, please," Her voice echoed all over the place. "Leave him out of this. Please." Caspian slammed her face in annoyance. "Shut the f*ck up, bitch." Vanessa's head snapped to the side, blood t

The night was getting darker and longer even. Dominic stood at the side of the road where he'd just received the call from the unknown number that requested $30 million grands or Vanessa will pay with her life if the demand is not met."She's been kidnapped." Dominic stood straighter, concern etched all over his face. "They're asking for $30 million grands or she's gonna die."The chubby officer, the lead investigator who'd spoken rudely to Dominic earlier, turned to look at in mild shock."$30?! What," He gasped. "You... can you even pay a quarter of that ridiculous amount of money?" He toned, the condescension beneath the exaggerated shock was stark.Dominic raised a brow. He didn't like the inspector the first time he saw him. He reeked of mischief. And in turn, Dominic was astute the man wasn't going to be interested in him too. But he didn't give a damn about his interest!He raised a brow. "Are you giving the opinion that we should comply with the criminal's demand?" He asked

At the Lumbard family house, the air was condensed. Mr. Lumbard paced up and down the living room, looking like fear was gradually eating up all sense of human.Mrs. Lumbard stood up, concern etching on her face but she maintained distance. She hadn't seen her husband fidgeting like this in their Twenty-five years of marriage. He screamed at her earlier. Unbelievable! Ridiculous!"Honey, this can be settled tomorrow...can er go to bed al..."Mr. Lumbard spun on her, his eyes darkened in rage. "Go to bed?" He cut her off rudely. "You want to sleep when my career is about to burn to ash! Do you know who that kid your son trampled on?!" His finger jabbed in the air."Who's he?" He paused to look at her like she was asking a stupid question. The door of the apartment parted and Connor dragged himself inside. His face reddened with the marks of fingerprints. Lumps bloomed across his face. He threw his head down in shame. The guy who had left in denim in jeans looks like he got attacked in

Inside of a long abandoned warehouse skittered with planks and cartons. The ambiance was dim, the kind that's creepy for any souls, and the location was farther away from the metropolis, at the fringe of the city where internet connection had been severed, signals completely snapped. In summary, the connections had been cut off entirely. No call access. No signal. This place was designed by Tristan Cole to Carry out his dangerous operations, and unfortunately...maybe unfortunately for him, Vanessa became his next target.In the centre of the hall was Vanessa, her hands tired to the armrest of the chair. Her head dropped low, seemingly unconsciousness. The smell of cigarettes hit in the air as smoke curled in the air from a cigarette clipped between Rico's finger, piercing faint red light into the darkness.His height was average, but he loomed, scary like a shadow, his eyes marked with scars that could make a kid wet his pants.He pulled out the cigarette from his lips. "Wake her.

Vanessa's car tore through the night along a quiet street, her knuckles paled on the steering wheel as she held it tight like her life depended on it— which of course it does. On the next seat was her phone, glowing with Dominic's name. He was the only one she thought of calling at that moment.She'd noticed a car following her from behind since the moment she went to Hakkasan. That same car had been on her tail when she left the restaurant too.She'd been uncertain if actually she was being followed, and so she accelerated the car and turned another corner only for the car to take her direction too. Fear ran her blood cold.She kept glancing at the side mirror. The car headlamp was off, but she could see it through the streetlight. "What am I gonna do. What am I gonna do." Dominic wasn't picking her call.With a racing heart, she quickly typed text on her phone with shaking hands. "I'm n dangee." It wasn't so correct but it was comprehensive enough. She sent the text to Dominic quic

VALENTINE DAY. At the presidential lounge, Elijah stood in front of a gigantic mirror hanging from the wall. He smiled, tugging on the hem of his suit for the second time. On his feet were pairs of sparkling Luis Vuitton loafers. Mrs. Keith had the outfits delivered specially for today as requested by Elijah. He looks different. Really different. Like he was bathed in gold overnight. He stepped away from the mirror and turned slowly but he froze, eyes pinned to a spot. For a fleeting seconds, it seemed time Paused. Suddenly, a wide smile bloomed over Elijah's face. Standing a few metre away was Martha. She looks exceptionally beautiful, radiating like the morning sun, draped in an Oxblood gown that flowed to the floor, sweeping on the pristine stairs as she descended like a royal. A gold necklace glinted above the neck curve, Scattering lights. She looks Sixteen. Sweet sixteen. “How do I look, Son?" A smile exploded on her face. Elijah swallowed, taking a step forward, gaze l

Elijah froze, his gaze down, locked on Rossana. The word Uncle was a strange Rhythm in his ear but then, he smiled widely at her like a good uncle.“Rossy..let's get going...he's not Uncle..” Hanna, her mother pulled her arm gently to whisk her away but Rossana was hesitant.“Let her be.” Elijah said calmly, taking a step forward. “If you won't be against it, she can come with me and you too.” He said smoothly, his smile lingering, genuine.Hanna blinked, forcing a smile, fingers tightening on Rossy's wrists like timepeice.“You don't have to..”“Don't worry. Both of you can come with me.” Elijah cut her off politely, voice smooth as filtered honey.Rossana, with a heart full of joy, ran over to Elijah and held his trousers. Elijah smiled, holding her tiny hand.“Let's go, my car is waiting over there.” He pointed.Rosanna, being a smart and vocal little girl looked across the road to see the big car Elijah pointed at. Her small eyes widened slightly, surprise flashing.Then little ja

“Have you seen who you've come to visit, Elijah?" Martha asked Elijah impatiently, her expression twisting slightly due to how uncomfortable the gown she wore felt— It felt really out of place for her regardless of the grandiose. She wasn't used to wearing such a body-fitting and resplendent gown but she had to wear it since Elijah wanted it for whatever surprise he has. What was more uncomfortable for her was the stares she was driving from onlookers especially men.Imaginarily, as the smoldering looks lingered on her body, she felt the zippers at the back crawling down, the metallic slider cold against her bare skin as though the gawking eyes from men staring shamelessly was stripping her bare.“God!” She muttered, finger pressed against her temple, her low, almost tired voice giving away her frustration.“I'm sorry, Mum. Just a moment, please.” Elijah who was mid-conversation with Evelyn turned to her slightly with a half yet genuine smile, obviously absorbed by the conversation w
