Chapter Ninety-Eight: Unseen Danger.

Lesley exhaled.

"He was loyal and thoughtful and kind..." Lesley paused her response and sniffed, all the while letting her eyes dart away from any contact with Burner's.

"Emm... He wasn't working any particular job. He stayed at home, taking care of things, making sure I was optimally focused at work..." Lesley continued and exhaled.

    Chapter One Hundred and Five: Desperate Attornment.Even Burner caught on with the tension.Cruz completed the stretch and suddenly emerged at the corner beside his desk.Three sets of eyes among the four beholding him stuck out of their sockets in utter bamboozlement.For a moment, all three of them froze.The moment felt like an aberation.Gradually, the shock started to fade off and with it came exclamations.What?!What the heck!How?!Bill, Margaret and Lesley exclaimed as they traded bemused glances.Burner was also taken aback by the bemusing reactions of the trio. "How is this loser here?! What is he doing here?! What the heck is going on here?" Margaret suddenly blurted out frantically, as she demostrated hysterically.Burner immediately saw red as Margaret's words hit him."What? How dare you?! Do you know who you just called a loser? My boss? The CEO!!!."Smack!Like an uncaged hyena, he had closed the gap between him and Margaret and impulsively struck her across the face

    Chapter One Hundred and Four: Frightening Tension."You can sit over there... The CEO will join you shortly." Sonia informed, pointing Lesley towards the lush sofas.Lesley nodded and walked nervously towards the exquisite lounge.Her knees wobbled on the way to take her seat. Her heartbeat came in fast throbs as she braced up for the man's arrival. She could only wonder what he looked like.Back in Burner's office, Bill and Margaret were still on their knees before Burner.Burner was presently bereft of how to handle the awkward situation before him.The emotion he presently felt was relieving as it was overwhelming.He knew that the present scene in his office was inappropriate, so he gestured for them to take their seats.This wasn't his personal space, so he needed to conduct himself professionally."Please take your seats, this is not the place for this..." Burner urged them.Bill and Margaret remained on their knees like they had not heard him."Please Burner, I really regret m

    Chapter One Hundred and Two: Fated Orchestration.A BUILDING IN DOWNTOWN CADBURY: 10:55am.Belle's eyes opened in a blurred vision before it started becoming lucid.She squinted her eyes and tried to force her vision but the faint light in the room impeded her quest.Her view was also manifesting horizontally.She could feel her weight pulling downwards as her ribs and kneecap pressed against a hard surface.She also felt her right cheek pressing against the same surface. Her neck and every joint in her body felt stiff.Her body was presently immobile as she struggled to move.Then as her senses and vision realigned completely, she suddenly realized she had been strapped face down to something that looked like a surgical table.Firm cords restrained her neck, hands, waist and legs.She tried to make a sound but no reaction came from the almost dark room.The place was awfully quiet and it was now clear she was there all by herself.A cold sweat broke on Belle's brows as her heartbeat

  • A Surge of Hope.

    Chapter One Hundred and One: A Surge of Hope."Well, I have to try to book an appointment..." Bill replied. A banging pain made his head ache and he was beginning to feel disoriented.He dropped back on the couch."Do you think you have time for all that bureaucracy involved in scheduling an appointment with such an important man?... He is the biggest investor right now in the whole of Vernada...and you want to try and book an appointment?! I didn't know you were this clueless for someone that has been a CEO yourself... Oh! I forgot, you were just a figure head."At this point, Bill wished he would just drop dead. Margaret's berating had reached its peak.Bill sprang to his feet like someone that had been set of fire."Oh damn, Margaret! What would you have me do? I can't even catch a breath anymore... How else am I supposed to see such an important person without an appointment?! godammit!!!""Well, you better get in the shower and get dressed, let me show you how..." Margaret barked
