CHAPTER FORTY TWO Veeda's voice was not one he could forget easily. He turned to the direction where he heard the voice from and what he saw next surprised him. Veeda looked stunning in her mid thigh evening dress which enhanced her curves, and her hair was packed in a ponytail. She had little make up on and she looked extremely different from the lady he had met a few days ago. He stared at her for a while and this made Veeda uncomfortable. Noticing her discomfort, Owen took his eyes off her and that was when he realized that someone was standing beside her. He had totally forgotten that she had come here with Rina in the first place. He dragged bus eyes from her toe to her head and he had to say, she cleaned up nice as well Rina was putting on a pepper red long dress that had a slit at the side which exposed her well toned legs and her smooth fair skin. Her earrings were pure diamond and their black colour shone under the light in the restaurant. She was putting on a flat sli

CHAPTER FORTY FOUR After Kate said those words, the whole place went silent. Owen's heart thumped loudly in his ears. He knew he couldn't hide the truth from Rina, but he couldn't reveal it to her this early. He had planned to tell her after a little while, maybe after their marriage to avoid any complications before the wedding. Rina stared at Kate with a smirk on her face, she couldn't understand what Kate was trying to say, but she knew that whatever it was, it was meant to make her angry so she couldn't give her the satisfaction of knowing that she had succeeded in her plans. Although her words troubled Rina, she shielded it properly. “What do you mean by that?” Veeda spoke up this time, her patience clearly wearing off “You understand what I meant, not just you tho. I think the both of you understand but you would hate to admit it as you clearly know that admitting would only make your joy short lived and you wouldn't want that to happen. “Yeah, he's a divorcee, and so

CHAPTER FORTY SIX “Arggh” Rina screamed as she pulled her hair roughly while Veeda stood by her side, trying to calm her down. They had just gotten home and Rina just ran into the house, screaming at the top of her voice. Veeda was hurt, seeing her like this. But she couldn't do anything about it. Rina was always like this anytime she was angry. “Calm down Ri” Veeda tried to pull her into her arms but she couldn't as she resisted with her full strength and she was too strong for her so she let her go before she ended up inflicting injuries on the both of them in her fit of rage. “How dare he? He wasn't planning to tell me that he had been married before. He wanted to trap me in before he would tell me about it. So that I wouldn't be able to leave even if I wanted to” Rina said, her eyes bloodshot red as she dragged her hair more. She herself couldn't understand why she was behaving this way. She was one of the most carefree persons in the world so she found it hard to underst

CHAPTER FORTY EIGHT Daniel was in the club waiting for his friends after they had arranged for a meeting tonight. They had decided to wind off at their usual bar and he had glanced at his watch countless times. He was starting to get impatient as they had never arrived late to a meeting before. He stood up from his seat and was about to leave when he saw them coming. They had company with them and he found the face familiar. He couldn't pinpoint where exactly he had seen the face but he was certain that the face seemed familiar. “Hey” “Yo” the two of his guards greeted “ What took you so long? I was in my way out” Daniel said “Ooh, chill out bro” one of his friends said as he patted him on the back “It was all his fault, he takes time to dress like a woman. He's the reason we arrived late” “ You're a di*k man, Sorry bro, it was my fault” Jake referred his words to Owen. “Daniel” Daniel introduced himself, stretching out his hand for a handshake to Jake. Jake too

CHAPTER FIFTY Gabriel coughed continuously as his P.A tried to get him to calm down. The man had been sick for a while now, they had tried many medications, but none of them had cured him. They had tried to look for the cause if his sickness, and although they had involved many renowned doctors and physicians in their search, their search had seemed futile. “Should I call your son?” His P.A asked when the cough seemed persistent “No, don't stress him, I'll be fine” Daniel replied in between coughs.He didn't want to inform Owen of his sickness as he didn't want him to get worried over his health. This was his cross and he had to carry it alone. He had noticed this a few months before his attempted assassination and since then, it had only gone from bad to worst. “Just get me a cup of water and I'll be fine” Gabriel told the man and he left to do as he was told. Gabriel sighed. He was so close to catching the person or group of people that made an attempt on his
