VOWS OF VENGEANCE The Challenge
"Ma'am, you have a visitor." Miranda's maid informed her and she smiled. She had been looking forward to this visitor and was happy that she wasn't disappointed. Something surged inside of her.Victory. She had not even pulled out all her cards but they were already dancing to her tune. "Let her in." She smirked, before adjusting her position on the seat. She suddenly realized that fighting against Cassandra was going to be easier than she thought. Cassandra strolled into the magnificent house that she had once frequented but didn't know that she was dwelling with someone who had the potential to destroy her. How she hadn't realized this was still beyond her, and she wanted to trash this issue now, once and for all."What a surprise, I thought that you would have left the country to fuel your shenanigans," Cassandra said with a weird smile on her face. Miranda smiled at the challenging look on her friend's face. "You should take a chill pill. It's not a new thing. You rejected him,
VOWS OF VENGEANCE Boundaries And Plans
Cassandra locked eyes with Ethan and scowled as he descended the stairs. "Oh, my goodness. Here comes the bride." She mocked."I would have said the same for you but we all know the reason you got married to him. You want a slice of his properties." Ethan didn't waste time returning the energy making her go red in the face. Miranda snickered in the background before averting her eyes pretending not to listen to them. "Oh? Is that what you think my marriage was?" Cassandra fired at him. "Exactly what I think it is. You came here to undermine me. Why should I spare you my thoughts? If you had any tangible reason you would have made it known. I think it's becoming borderline worrisome that you engage yourself in conversations about me when you can simply pretend that I do not exist in any form or shape and we wouldn't have problems." Ethan fired back. Cassandra's eyes remained wide as she tried to figure out what gave Ethan sudden boldness besides Miranda's money. "It's amazing how a
VOWS OF VENGEANCE Taking Charge
Ethan walked into Miranda's company in next day with a swagger in his step. He had practiced for this moment and wasn't about to allow it to pass him by. Miranda fell into step with him, and he found himself smiling as they passed through the workers who were already surrounding every step and waiting for him to probably make a mistake. Miranda removed her glasses at the same time Ethan did, and their workers broke into applause. They stopped walking immediately after they got to the middle of the room. It was time to give a public address since not a lot of people were present at the wedding. Miranda stretched her hand and a mic was thrusted into her palm. "Good morning everyone." A chorus answered her and she smiled in acknowledgement. "As you all know, I have gotten married to the love of my life, and he will be taken of your position. Anyone who does not like the change in leadership can exit peacefully." She announced while gazing at everyone present. They all held t
VOWS OF VENGEANCE Parental Interlude
Miranda's parents stood at the doorway, gazing at their child in horror. They would never have imagined that they would be in such a situation where they would beg for their child's sanity."Good to see you, Pops, Ma." She responded casually like she didn't understand the reason why they were here. "I never knew that you were coming in so soon I will have made preparations for you. I hope you are not saddened by my actions. I can still take you out for lunch if you don't mind." She said, brushing off the elephant in the room. Ethan decided to jump into the conversation not allowing them to override him, just like the mistake he had made with cassandra's parents a while ago. "Good day sir, ma'am. It's a pleasure to finally meet you. Your daughter has spoken highly of you."The shot him a condescending look, which screamed gold digger. "I don't remember asking you to join in this conversation." Miranda's mother, Diana spoke instantly.Ethan merely shrugged refusing to back down. "I und
VOWS OF VENGEANCE The Confrontation
Ethan decided to go around the office and see what was being conducted so that he knew how best to deal with these guys. Although he had been crowned as the acting CEO, she wanted to make sure his dominance was felt. Something told him that Cassandra was trying to pull a fast one on him and it was his duty to ensure that that didn't happen consecutively Even if she had tried to find information about him it was his duty to also protect his ego and his pride from being found. If she was able to prove that he was just an imposter and this was a fake marriage then he was done for. His cell phone rang in his pocket, making him jump in fear, before maintaining his cool and looking around to see if anyone had spotted his little display of fear. How she managed to still instill fear in him was a wonder that he was not willing to explore. He was willing to explore his freedom to the maximum. And that began from feeling like he was the CEO and not the other way around. "Yes?" "Williams Ha
VOWS OF VENGEANCE Charade
Miranda looked all around for her husband and almost went mad by calling his phone numerous but to her chagrin, he didn't pick up. She had stylishly asked me if they had seen him but everyone kept talking in the negative. She didn't want to believe that he had absconded just the first day of having access to her wealth. This would mean that Cassandra had won and that will be the end of everything that she had been trying to prove to that couple. Ethan, on the other hand, had decided to cross over to the next Street and have his lunch. He didn't want to return to the office where he was not as respected as he would have loved to be. He could read through the lines because he was not stupid and the only way he could exert dominance was to show that he was somebody with or without Miranda. What better way to prove that besides going out on his own and not even touching a dime out of Miranda's card that she had handed with her to him? As soon as he stepped back into the office he saw
VOWS OF VENGEANCE Troubled Camp
Williams was having a hard time getting over the fact that Ethan had not danced to his tune and decided to conduct a private investigation about him. He understood the rule of business as always allowing the best man to win. If he could prove that this man was nothing but an imposter, then he would have the upper hand, and anything he asked him to do would be done deal. Cassandra fumed on her stool as she went on with her makeup. "I don't think you understand the gravity of everything that is happening. I would go out of business if it is proven that they are together. Ethan is a sick businessman and is only going to push Miranda's business forward. I know that they are only in a fake marriage just to spite me. I need to uncover their mess." She said. Williams was tired of her incessant complaints and they were just only two days into the marriage. "You give me a headache with your constant complaints. I understand that you hate them so much but this is not a reason for you to conti
VOWS OF VENGEANCE Tempting Offers. (I)
Ethan was on his way to getting answers that no one was willing to give to him because they were all stingy with it. It was his duty to find a way of always making sure that things went accordingly, especially in the office. The sound of the office telephone had him gritting his teeth angrily, as this was the last thing he wanted for himself, especially on a day like this. He just wanted to go through all of the accounts and see how it was able to rectify them while Miranda granted those interviews that she had discussed with him. He didn't really care for whatever was going to happen, especially on her end, because he was hoping that he could get everything right on track, but right now, things were not looking as favorable as they should. Not knowing exactly what he should say or do, he maintained his cool."Ethan speaking." He barked into the phone in irritation. He didn't want to have to discuss anything other than business with whoever decided to reach out to him. He wanted to

The Restocked Stock (II)
Ethan moved straightway to the back of the house, waiting for a change so that he could now go on with his major reason for being here. Nothing was going to change the fact that there was a discord somewhere and they needed to be like a break to make sure that everything was already done properly. As much as he would have loved to wait for some time and discuss, he needed to also leave so that he wouldn't get into a mess. The world was already speaking great about him but that didn't change the fact that people would turn against you when the time was right and he didn't want to be caught up in such a situation. Pulling out his phone and reaching out to his wonderful woman. Miranda. She was the only one who had the right not to be involved in this but at the same time also needed to come as fast as possible to his aid. He was not going to waste time discussing with Williams when he could just send a protege that would get the job done and then he wouldn't have to look over his s
The Restored stock
Williams stretched out in prison, looking for a better way of handling the situation but found none as everything that came knocking on his door came with a lot of baggage that he could not even comprehend and was looking for the best way to handle the situation. He shouldn't have allowed his anger to get the best out of him because now he was behind bars again for the same reason he wanted to leave. "Do not come over here unless you have something tangible to tell me. If you want to convince me why don't you go ahead and just tell me from the start instead of making me believe that I have a chance but that's not the truth of the matter." He said a little bit annoyed when he saw Ethan again. This time Ethan had forgotten what it felt to be remorseful especially when he came to somebody like this and he wanted to treat him to a point where he would regret his life and never tried the same thing that he did in the beginning. "I was going to be merciful to you but I realized that you
The Returnee
Williams looked at the interior of the cell wondering how his life had declined to this state where he could no longer feed properly and was left to rot inside a place where he had absolutely no idea what was going on. It was almost as though he was wasting his time here when it could be outside taking revenge. The amount of pain that he felt was enough to send him almost across borders, but he didn't say a word; instead, he just kept on looking. The only reason that he had not committed suicide was because he didn't want Ethan and Miranda to win. They were the ones behind all of this he knew this. He just needed somebody who could trust him enough to bring him out of this mess and then he would show them the stuff that he was made of without having to break a sweat. The problem of having to wait for so long before somebody decided to take pity on him was something that he did not want to take for granted, but at the same time, he was still trying to figure out what to do next.
Odds and Opps
A little more push and Williams would have confessed that he was the one who had pulled that stunt but he already had a goal and had not achieved it yet. He would rather die than to speak up, even if the people were being screened one after the other. "Oh, is there anything wrong with you apart from the fact that you already have things set up? I don't know why you will restrict us from leaving when my mother is already in the hospital? I can't stay here simply because you did not trust that the people you employed would not have a hand in this shenanigans!"As truthful as his words might have sounded, everything was completely fake to Ethan and he began to watch the person carefully. For him to possess such an audacity, he had something to hide and it was not something small. Phil's manager also felt the same way and he turned to look at the person who was challenging him. This wasn't somebody who was begging for a job, instead it was somebody who couldn't wait to get out of thi
Explosions
"Somebody grab this man! He was the one talking to her before she fainted. Who knows if he has done something simply because she doesn't like him anymore? I don't know why you would subject yourself to such horror simply because you cannot take the hint that this woman doesn't want you in her life anymore?!" The insult did nothing against Ethan as Cassandra's fiance kept on shouting and trying to disgrace him."I'm sure you have the CCTV cameras, why do you act like a local? If you cannot use your money wisely, do you even think you should get married?" Ethan pointed at him in a derogatory manner. "I'm not going to stand here and watch you insult me simply because you cannot use your intelligence. I don't bloody care about your opinion about me either, in case you have not noticed."The insults run deeper than Phil intended it to. His face colored, as he moved closer, attempting to smack this man across the face and show everyone that he was capable. "Oh you wouldn't dare do that to
The poison
Williams watched from the server's desk, wearing his mask over his face as he moved around, entertaining visitors and asking what they would like. This idea was suggested by his friend which he had initially thought didn't make any sense until he realized how important it was to him and then figured out that he had probably lost a lot."So, what the hell is this? Do you think that I would not have been mad at you or something? I have more than enough reason not to listen to your words even if you try." Cassandra challenged Ethan when he pointed out the obvious. "My husband is a straight man, he loves me so much and...""He is bisexual. Cassandra you don't want to end up with someone like this. You cannot cope. You know this deep down, so why the unnecessary anger at me? Didn't you have a check like you should? or let me guess... You just wanted to snatch anyone that you could find and didn't mind what could come out of it right?""Yeah, and what business of yours is it? Is there any
Death trap
"Merriment has never suited anyone better than you." Ethan said with a small smile that screamed annoyance when he came in contact with Cassandra.Cassandra's eyes widened in horror at his presence, hoping that this was nothing but a prank. "You came!" She exclaimed.Ethan laughed at her unnecessary surprise because he felt like she should have known by now that he would have figured out that she was trying to move on with another person. "What kind of ex would I be if I didn't show up at your intimate engagement? Does Williams know that you are getting married to another person?" He asked in a good natured tone, shocking her to the bone.If anyone had told Cassandra a long time ago that she would have to bother herself so much about Ethan, she would have refused and called them a liar. "So what?" She challenged, "Are you going to tell him? Are you going to scream at the top of your voice that I have decided to move on with my life and not get carried away by whatever is expected o
The Wedding
"Engaged? To whom?" Ethan asked with mild curiosity, as he kept on scrolling through his phone, looking for the news in the media. How she had managed to keep it hush was still a surprise to him because immediately the media got wind of such news, they would have a field day publishing it to whomever it may concern. "So, according to insiders, it is rumored that now that Williams has been stripped of his position and she has no need for him anymore, she decided to move on with life and I don't blame her one bit." "Yeah, right. That is wonderful to hear. I wouldn't advise her to stay with him either." Ethan responded. Not only was Williams now broke, he was also a woman beater, who knew what she could say that would anger him and that may lead to her demise, so it was better that she was far away from him where he couldn't touch her. "Yeah, right. I have absolutely nothing to fear, and at the same time, I still feel like there is an issue somewhere that I have to address. Do you h
The Old Flame
Ethan leafed through the pages of information before him, enjoying his solitude.He had been used to being alone most of the time and now that wasn't just going to change because Miranda had also traveled to Zanzibar.Since she wasn't wanted by the cops, there was no need for her to remain in the country like her ex fiance and while there was a huge difference between both parties, they ensured that they remained as cordial as possible.His phone rang, cutting off his attention from what he considered important to himself."Jenna?" "Y-yeah, I'm on my way to your house. I hope you are at home. Even if you aren't, I would wait for you. I wanted to inform you about my movement so that you don't get worried about it." She explained. As much as he would have loved some more explanation he just figured out that she always found her way around things and the best way was to let her do her thing. He could handle her surprises better than Miranda. "Tell me the details for your arrival. Hav
