VOWS OF VENGEANCE Connivance.
Ethan kicked his foot against the ground, unwilling to say anything that implicates him, especially with his mother-in-law around. He didn't fear her for any reason but just wanted to accord her to respect that she deserved. Not wanting to be seen as someone who would deliberately insult an elder, he decided to take a deep breath while watching her pace around the hospital lobby. That was the best way to handle situations. "Right... I don't think you have fed her properly. I don't know what exactly she has eaten to be so dehydrated and collapse to the ground!" She kept on yelling. Ethan maintained his calm disposition. He had a lot of things on his mind and this was even far from it. There were a few people who were able to rattle him, but none of them ever succeeded. She wasn't even part of them. Miranda's father tapped his wife so that she could learn some atom of control but that was not even the case. She wanted to prove something, which was quite annoying, to say the least."
VOWS OF VENGEANCE Defrauded
Ethan watched the doctor carefully as he tried to understand what was happening here. It would be such a waste for him to go ahead I'm challenge the doctor over something that could be easily dissolved. "What do you mean by she would have to stay here for so long for more inspection when everything is going well?" Ethan demanded from him. He kind of had an idea of what was going on but was hoping that this doctor was not going to subject himself to such mediocrity all in the name of wanting to get paid or have enough money. "She put you up to this, didn't she? Isn't it the best if you have just rejected anything that have to do with your conscience instead of making me now realize the kind of person you are?" He accused the doctor. He wasn't going to blame Miranda if she suddenly forgot what kind of person she was dealing with. It was pathetic that he had to waste his time an energy and still end up with such nonsense. The doctor's eyes widened in shock at being caught. He would

Miranda laughed when she saw the headlines. "The high and mighty have begun to crumble." She rejoiced, rubbing her belly slowly as the news kept on playing in the background. I refused to let this get to me as I waited for more clarifications yet they refused to come. "Explain to me why I feel like a witch as I watch this news." She giggled placing her legs on Williams'Nothing was funny in this scenario because she was only just overthinking things and hoping that everything went accordingly. Williams, looked away, realizing that they were in for some mad stuff. If they were not careful they were going to lose everything that they had gotten the past few days. He tapped her legs, "why don't we just focus on what is ahead of us instead of thinking that we can beat them? It's going to be a lot for us to handle, yeah?" She looked away for a minute. "What do you want me to say? They have been a pest and it's high time that they have a dose of their own cruelty. I don't think it makes
VOWS OF VENGEANCE Passive Interest
Miranda could no longer differentiate between her leanings and what Ethan wanted because they were not even on speaking terms. It had gotten to a point where both of them just decided to let things go and find a common point. Williams had been pestering her to come back to him by sending notes and flowers which she had been hiding from Ethan. She didn't want to dispel him just yet because he could end up being useful in the future. Williams had nothing to offer but more heartaches but she would take it over not having any idea of what was happening in his life. It was that bad and she had to find answers for herself since Ethan was now very invested in the business without talking to her anymore. Her only consolation was the fact that she was aware that he would never intentionally ruin her chances had becoming the millionaire she wanted to be. Ethan watched her from the mirror as she dressed up probably going to meet up with the man she was supposed never to come in contact with
VOWS OF VENGEANCE The Stare down
Miranda's heels clicked violently on the ground as she approached the hotel scheduled for their meeting. It wasn't going to be an easy thing but she was ready to make it work as much as she could. There was absolutely nothing she could do to change the situation but was willing to employ whatever strategies she could. Williams was on his feet the moment he sighted her, with his eyes roaming all over her body. She looked very pleasant and he was quite appreciative of it. "I truly didn't expect you to show up. If anyone told me that you would, I might have fought them but here we are and I have no choice but to believe that you are here in flesh and blood." He tried to hug her but she escaped stylishly. Miranda offered him a small smile but that wasn't any way near what she felt towards him at all. It was disastrous that he would have to waste so much time trying to get in her good graces when he knew very well that his intentions were nothing but wicked. "You look a bit irrit
VOWS OF VENGEANCE Rigged
"Given the circumstances, I believe that you and I would have to discuss more and find a solution to our problems. It has been a long time since we had a heart to heart conversation and trust me, I am not the same man I used to be a long time ago." "And pigs fly. How do you expect that I of all people would ever listen to your shenanigans and believe it? You freaking tried to kill me, have you suddenly lost your memory?" "Obviously, yes. I remember and I am still a bit perplexed why you have not sued me. I know that you do not have sufficient evidence but it isn't still a criterion for you to push for vengeance. You and I know how important this is to you." Williams said. Miranda wondered how she ever ended up with such a freaking stupid guy. She must have been stupid to also think that anything tangible was going to come out from their conversations. She tapped her foot on the ground impatiently, blaming herself for taking such a rash decision that was almost trying to end her li
VOWS OF VENGEANCE A Glimpse of Hope
Miranda's face was plastered even on national TV with her words misconstrued and tagged to mean disrespectful and problematic. A lot of netizens had things to say about her behavior to a man of reputation after losing almost half of her assets. "Even if she wants to be mad at him, he doesn't deserve her scathing actions. It has not been proven that he was in any way involved in her kidnap, so why is she trying so much to paint him black?" One person said. "I think that a lot of women have been made to be empowered in a silly form, and all they think about is revenge when they should be happy that someone even takes a look at them." A Rosie Meyer said. Miranda couldn't bear the reproach she was facing from something that she was supposed to emerge as a winner and, most importantly, from women who understood how this works. She rolled her eyes as she kept on watching the news dissect her personal life and asking for proof that her claims were true. "I don't think you should be wat
VOWS OF VENGEANCE The Cacophony
"This is preposterous!" Williams shot to his feet as soon as he saw the allegations against him. His lawyer, Barrister Karen, was perplexed at his misbehavior and didn't know how to go about it. "I suggest that you take a chill pill, sir; shouting is not going to solve anything. Why don't we discuss it and then we know what exactly to say? I understand how you must feel but... Is that not the reason why I am here?" Williams raised his eyes at her in anger. She wouldn't know what it meant for her reputation to be damaged. He was just finalizing a damaged control which took a lot from him just to be able to prove to people that he was a good man. Pointing at her accusingly, she jerked backward. "I don't understand what this is all about but if I have any idea of what this might be, I tell you for a fact that you are probably blowing this out of proportion. I understand the need for you to put yourself in my shoes and all of that, but..." Williams slammed his palm against the table,

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
