Chapter One: I caught her cheating. “Mr. Williams, can I see you in my office?” The loudspeaker echoed in his ears and instantly his eyes darted towards the door with CEO boldly written on it. Julian’s heart skipped a beat as he stared at the door for some seconds. He knew something was wrong, something was always wrong when it came to his life. His legs trembled in great distress as he pushed open the glass door through the doorknob while he assembled all the courage he had gathered within the span of half a second, and went inside to see him.Julian’s heart continuously throbbed nonstop knowing his call was not for a good thing but rather a bad one- His name was never associated with a good thing. The next minute, he received a heavy blow. Right in front of him, he was handed a dismissal letter with his name written on it, and a blank space for his signature. This letter was given to him by the man whom he normally addressed as his boss. He read thoroughly the content of the lett

Chapter Three: Get on your knees and beg for mercy “You call that piece of trash a ring? I can buy her a mansion made of rings! You have to admit I am way better than you, poor fool…” Denzel beat Kyra to her words and said exactly what she had in mind. “Admit that you are a loser. Kneel before me and beg for mercy and I might save your miserable life and lend you a few million bucks to give your pitiable life some ego...” “Who do you think you are to talk to me like that? You are a shameless man!” “I hate arrogant, good for nothing down-and-out people like you. You should be happy Kyra even chose you for a while. She gave you a perfect life and you can’t do the same to her. You are useless!” He closed the gap between him and Julian and from nowhere, a punch came flying at Julian’s face. Julian was not able to dodge since he was weak in martial arts, so he fell to the ground. The right side of his face was badly injured and had a long cut which blood spilled from. He watched as an

Chapter Five His identity is gone. “That is called bluffing, Kyra. That Julian has no clothes or job. How can he possibly make us beg for mercy? Think about it, he only said it to scare you,” Denzel softly murmured, caring less about what Julian had earlier said. He held Kyra and trailed kisses down to her collarbone. As he was about to slip his finger into her dress, she stopped him. “What is it now?” “I have to go. I am not feeling too good,” With guilt, Kyra picked up her belongings alongside her car keys and headed out of the house. She strapped on her seatbelt in the car and taking a glance at Denzel’s car, she panicked and drove off. She messed up big time. Whereas, Denzel fumed as he wore his trousers and fastened his belt. He ruffled his head and sat on the edge of the bed. He took out his phone and dialed an anonymous number. “I do not want to see Julian Williams alive tomorrow. I want his head brought to me as a solicitation gift for my right wrist he broke. Get me his

Chapter Seven: Panic attack. “Wait, she did what…?” His calm eyes changed to a fury filled one. “How could she do such a thing to you, man? Did you not say she loved you and would spend her lifetime with you” “I thought so but it seems I was wrong about her. She is like every woman out in the world. She is not special in anyway. I was damn fucking stupid to trust she was different.” Julian balled his fist while he recalled today’s incident. He had been crushed by someone whom he cherished so much. Heartbreak was the very bittersweet truth everyone hated. “Women can never be trusted especially those from the higher rank. They care about themselves and money. Well, you live you learn which my motivation has been since. Mistakes are made to be learnt from. Don’t be down because of a woman. You have other blessed opportunity ahead of you and I know you are a fulfilled individual. No one should belittle you anymore.” “I will remember your words, my good friend and become stronger

Chapter Nine: The start of new journey “Auntie, you have too…Wait, don’t close your eyes. You can’t…” Julian shook her begging for her eyes to remain open and tell him all she knew about him. Unfortunately, she did not open her eyes and it was shut forever. ~Beeeppp~ The monitor rang alerting Eden, Smith and his medical team. They rushed into the room and found Julian crying his heart out. He clenched onto her arms begging her to wake up and be alive. Smith dragged Julian away from her and handed him over to the old man. Smith confirmed her death and bowed his head in silence. He raised the blanket and covered her entire body, stepped away from the bed after detaching the monitor and tubes from her body and allowed for her dead body to be rolled out of the room. “12 am in the morning, Miss Lore Harrison passed away from heart stroke. My her humble soul rest in peace” ******************** In the hallway, downstairs. “You have been sulking since two hours. Are you not goi
