“Bastard, I promise you to ki|| you once I’m out of here, I promise you to ki|| you in the most gruesome way, “Leonard replied with anger written all over his face””
“Let me see how far you are going to leave this place,”the masked man replied and turned to the guard behind him. “Keep a close eye on him, make sure you feed him very well and gave him everything that he needs. Is that clear,”
“Yes boss, your wish is my command,”the guard replied as the masked man turned to Leonard and glared at him dangerously before walking out of the secret room with the guard

“Are you by any chance the one who sent some men to ki|| me,”Karina asked as Savannah felt a lump on her throat””
She can’t possibly be alive since those men have gum, it only means one thing. She escaped or she ki|| them,”she thought as she felt Karina coming closer to her.”
She hide off the fear on her face and replace it with an arrogant face.
“What are you talking about,”Savannah asked rolling her eyes in disgust as Karina laughed.””
“Cut the pretence, you think that I don’t know that you are the one behind the attack on me. I will make proper investigation and find out, the moment I found that it’s you, just consider yourself dead,”Karina warned with a tone of finality as Savannah Chuckled loudly.
“Go ahead, I will be patiently waiting for you till you are done with the investigation,”Savannah replied and sat on the couch crossing her legs.””
“You shouldn’t be here because Xander doesn’t allow girls with empty brain to be in his house. The best thing is for you to go home because you will end up instead getting a shocker,”Karina smirked and sat on the other couch pressing her phone.””
“I should be the one to tell you that, Xander loves me, he cares and cherish me so much but everything changed the moment he meets a ?îtçh that’s you,”Savannah yelled standing up on her feet marching towards Karina.””
“Tell me how much do you want, I will gladly pay it to you and you will leave Xander alone”
“I’m not the someone that could be easily deceived through money. Xander is mine and mine alone,”Karina replied as Savannah raised her hand to slap her but the sound of a car were heard.””
“You are lucky that he’s back else I would have ki|| you,”Savannah said as Karina laughed.”
Savannah glared at her before adjusting her clothes and walked towards the door and at the same time, Xander open the door.
“Baby,”she called and made to kiss him but Xander pushed her off and she crashed on the couch.
“Baby,”she called as Karina bursted into laughter since she can’t control it anymore””
“You must have been waiting for me a long time, I’m so sorry babe,”Xander said and kissed her forehead as Karina wrapped her hands around his neck.””
“I miss you so much babe,”Karina replied as they were staring at each other. “”
Savannah got up and pulled Karina back before landing a loud resounding slap on her face.
“How dare you pop out of no where to claim what’s mine, are you crazy,”Savannah yelled as she was burning up with anger. She turned to xander who was glaring at her. “I can’t believe that you have do this to me Xander. Tell me who exactly is she to you”””
Xander marched towards her and grabbed her neck pressing it hard as she choked.
“How dare you touch my girlfriend with that filthy hands of yours, she’s more better than a gold digger like you. The things we shared is all in the past and I can never love a clingy ?îtçh like you, get Lost,”Xander yelled with his eyes blazing red””
“Am so sorry,”Savannah muttered as she was in tears already. Her neck is hurting badly and she felt her life leaving her.””
Xander pushed her as she crashed on the couch breathing heavily. She took her phone and ran out of the house as Xander turned to see Karina who was staring at him.
“I’m sorry for the slap,”Xander apologize””
“You don’t have to apologize, remember I’m not your girlfriend and the act you put up there is just a show,”Karina replied as Xander felt hurt.”
“Sure, no problem. I bought some foodstuffs, maybe you can prepare something,”Xander said as Karina took it from him and start heading to the kitchen without saying anything.””
Xander stared at her with mixed feelings.
“Yeah, I shouldn’t think about it after all she’s not my girlfriend,”he muttered to himself.””

Steve was heartbroken all these days as the thought of Daisy cheating on me shattered his heart.
He was in the bar drinking heavily maybe it will make him get over daisy.
“I love her so much, why did she have to cheat on me with my friend. Why,”he cried bitterly as he gulped the fifth bottle””
He made to take the sixth bottle but a hand grabbed it and he looked up to see Pinky.
“What are you trying to do Steve. The fact that I told you who Daisy is and you find out that she’s cheating on me, what if I haven’t tell you. Would you have find out,”Pinky shouted at him.””
“Just give me the bottle, love is so cruel to me,”Steve muttered as Pinky called the waiter and paid the bills.””
“Come, let me take you home,”Pinky said and put her hand over his neck and pulled him up.””
“Daisy, you must regret playing with my heart, I promise you,”he muttered and slumped as he fell on Pinky’s arms. “”
Pinky stared at his handsome face as he caresses it slowly.
“You must have gone Through a lot,”she muttered and took him to his car and drove off heading to his house.””
She entered and met the maids who gave her direction to his room and she layed him on the bed and made to go but Steve pulled her back and crashed his lips on hers.
Pinky pulled it off and dashed out of the room not sparing him a glance.

“Wow, the food taste so nice like you,”Xander compliments as Karina rolled her eyes.””
“I don’t need your compliments,”Karina replied as Xander Chuckled loudly””
“You are playing hard to get right, are you not the one screaming my name so badly at the hotel,”Xander asked scooping the spoonful of pasta in his mouth as Karina looked away in embarrassment.””
“Stop it,Karina replied as she made to hit Xander but he dodged it and stood up.
Karina got out of his chair and rushed at h trying to beat him but she missed a step and made to fall.”
Xander grabbed her waist pulling her closer to him as they stared deeply at each other.
Xander made to kiss her but Karina pulled out of his body.
“I have to go to work now bye,”Xander said””
“Sure, see you around,”Karina waved at him and he pecked her checks.”
“Pervert,”Karina yelled and made to hit him but Xander was fast enough to run out of the house”””
“He’s look good to me so I don’t think he have a dirty secret but what could it be,”Karina wondered as she sat on the couch””
★★
Xander sat in his office, his brow furrowed as he scrolled through his phone. The tension in the room was palpable, the air heavy with unspoken words.
He was staring at the picture of a girl in his phone as his eyes felt teary. Regrets filled his mind as he hand start shaking.
Suddenly, the door burst open and his brother, Julius, strode into the room.
“What are you doing here, leave this office right now that I’m being nice,”Xander said calmly not removing his eyes from his phone.””
“Seriously, are you chasing me out from your office,”Julius laughed and glanced at him staring at his phone.
“What’s he looking at,”he muttered and snatched the phone from Xander’s hand, his eyes widening as he saw the image on the screen.
It was a girl, her face frozen in a smile, but something about her seemed off.
“Give me back my phone,”Xander yelled trying to take the phone but Julius pushed him back on the chair.”””
“What have you done? You are still looking at her picture after what you have done to her” Julius demanded, his voice shaking with anger.
“You ki||ed her, didn’t you? I knew you were capable of it. You f-__-king ki|| her despite that’s she’s pregnant for you you should persuade her to get rid of the baby than ki|| her. you don’t deserve to be here, a murder like you deserve to be in the jail””
“Stop accusing me on what I didn’t do, just stop it,”Xander cried heavily with tears rolling down his face””
The memories flooded back in an instant, like a tidal wave crashing over him.
