Nishane's Point of View
I AM still in a daze as I think about what happened. I have been imprisoned in this big mansion for several days and I still haven't managed to escape. Yes, I tried several times but the whole mansion is surrounded by Griffle's men. I am guarded by a lot of men. How am I going to get out of here if I'm surrounded by Clifford's tentacles?
To this day, what my mother did is still a big question for me. Am I hurt? Yes. I have all the right to be hurt and to get mad at her.
I did everything to meet her needs. And this is what I get after getting her spoils from me? From my own earnings?
I kept thinking, wasn't everything I did enough to make a lot of money? I worked almost 24 hours just to give her enough money. I can no longer rest well enough to work and give her everything she needs.
What I want is to be free from her. I never thought that in this way I would be free from her controlling nature.
Tears were about to fall from my eyes when I heard three consecutive knocks.
"State your concern, loud and clear," I said loudly.
"Master Clifford wants something to give to you."
I rolled my eyes as I heard the man's name.
I still can't forget how he made me a toy last night. Although, nothing happened to the two of us.
Fortunately, nothing happened. But I still can't get his silly grin out of my mind which is annoying. If I could have fought him, I would have.
Very arrogant. So boastful.
That's how I would describe Clifford. That jerk is really pissing me off!
Treating me as if I am his property. Fuck him!
I stood up to go to the door and faced one of the maids. The maid handed me an envelope so my eyebrow rose.
"What is this?"
The woman shrugged. "Master just gave it to me."
And after that, the maid left. I quickly closed the door and sat on the edge of the bed. Then I stared at that envelope.
It was just a mini envelope.
I quickly opened the envelope out of curiosity and read the letter inside.
'By this time, I know you have already woken up. I don't care if you eat already or not. I bought a new phone for you. It's on your side table. Call me right after you read this.
PS: If you didn't call me. I'll call you.
Your husband,
Clifford.
I sighed in annoyance. Even though he is not in front of me, I can still see his smiling face in my mind. I don't think that can be erased because that is how he always reacted.
And it really pisses me off!
Since it is obvious that I can't do anything about it. I picked up the phone that Clifford was talking about and dialed his number in annoyance.
"You must read my letter. How sweet I am." I rolled my eyes when I heard his annoying laugh.
I took a deep breath. "I just read."
"And you understand your assignment." The tone of his voice seemed to tease.
I bit my bottom lip to calm myself down.
"Shut up. What else do you want? Can you please leave my fucking life alone? If you are bored, do something but don't bother me. We are not even close—"
He didn't let me finish.
"Come on, I can call you since you are my wife. I can use you anywhere, anytime, and whenever I want."
"Fuck!" I cursed.
How can this guy turn my head so easily?
I roamed my eyes around the room. I need to get out of this hellish mansion.
"Planning to escape again?" He seemed to see my movements so my eyes widened.
"I'm not!"
"Try your luck and give your best. Let's see who will win."
I was annoyed because I couldn't do anything. I feel like a puppet who has to obey what Clifford wants because if I don't, I know something bad will happen.
I am far away from my mother and that is what I want.
But I'm still not free.
I am no longer in the power of my mother but I feel like I am still imprisoned. I was still being controlled, but this time, it was Clifford who was controlling me.
When will I have freedom?
"You can't do anything, Nishane. Your mother sold you, didn't she? Be grateful that I didn't lay my hands on her. I like what she offered, though."
I smirked in anger. "Wow! And that was me? Should I be grateful? Wow! Just wow, Clifford!"
He laughed sarcastically. "You're kinda smart, my beautiful wife." And then he stopped. "I'll see you later."
He ended the call just like that. I closed my eyes again due to annoyance. I think about how I can get out of this place. My fans must be worried about me right now. I haven't posted on my social media accounts for a few days and they will notice that it is very unusual to me.
I laughed sarcastically. My fans are the only people that love me unconditionally. I never dreamed of becoming an actress but somehow, I'm glad because I met people who didn't treat me like a puppet, but one of the people they value. They have their own problems but they are also wishing me to be the happiest.
Unlike my own mother who can't even see my worth. She even sold me to an arrogant man and didn't think about what I would feel.
"Argh! I hate him! I hate her! I hate my fucking life!"
I clenched my fists in annoyance. No matter how much I screamed, I knew it would do nothing to help me. I am stuck. And I hate being stuck with this fucking mansion.
I took a deep breath to calm myself. I even closed my eyes to concentrate.
I need to think. I need to plan.
Nothing will happen if I just sit on this soft bed and am dumbfounded. Nothing will happen if I just get mad.
I need to do something.
I need to escape. I need to try again. And I will never get tired of trying because this is for my future and my life.
Nishane's Point of ViewI AM CURRENTLY organizing my stuff in the closet. These dresses, accessories, and everything were from Clifford. He gave me everything that I needed even though I didn't ask. It shocked me because he knew the things I preferred. Even the brand of shampoo and lotion I use, he knows it.Is he my stalker?Later, I was surprised when my phone rang. I knew immediately who was calling as no other contact details were saved but his. So I can't even ask for help to get out of this place."What?!" I asked irritably."Fix yourself. I'll pick you up in a minute," he said in a plain voice.My eyes widened. "In a minute?"Doesn't he know that it takes me an hour to take a shower since I love enjoying the water? It calms my soul. I still need to dry my hair and dress myself."You heard me right."I breathed deeply. "But I still—""No buts. I'm on my way."And he hung up the call just like that.But wait... he's going to pick me up? Does that mean we are going somewhere? If w
MEET THE ACES OF MAFIACLIFFORD's Point of View "JUST make sure your wife won't get in the way of us, I already warned you!" Allison eyes' warned me.I could see that she was agitated. She is clearly upset that I kept my plan from her. She was only startled when I presented Nishane to her as my wife, who is well-known throughout our company. Allison wasn't the only one I anticipated to respond in this manner for this reason.I made a small laugh. I said, "Allison, you don't have to do that. Do you trust me?"Gritting her teeth, Allison rolled her eyes. "You know that I will sacrifice my life to keep you safe; I put more faith in you than in myself!"Smirking, I turned to face her. "I told you that already, didn't I? You don't have to do that for me.""That's what I pledge! There is nothing you can do about that."Allison constantly criticizes me when I do something she doesn't like. When I ask her if she trusts me and my judgment, she always says she does since that is the truth
Khlea’s Point of ViewI was just looking at my teammates while we were all holding the cue stick. My friends’ attention was focused only on Allison, who was staring at the cue ball. It stands while measuring how to attack to shoot some balls that are its target. “What do you think about that, Nishane?” The8 asked with a smirk on his lips. “It looks like our friend will be hit because of that heir. Imagine that Nishane is weak, but Clifford chose him.”No one answered us, but Allison sat down hard, causing it to shoot its target balls. She stood up properly, then looked at all of us without emotion. “Whatever happens, we don’t care anymore. It’s Cliff’s life. Their life.”She is right. But even I know that things are complicated for them, so what if Cliff has special feelings for Nishane?“Allison is right. We shouldn’t get involved in any of Cliff’s personal business with Nishane. There is only one thing we need to do for Clifford—to protect him,” Seven said.I was a little surprised
A DINNER TOGETHERNISHANE's Point of View Being blinded by the light flowing in through the open bedroom window, I gently opened my eyes to wake up. Upon realizing where I was, I scowled.What took place last night is something I will never forget. When I first woke up, that's what I thought about right away. In my heart, a peculiar horror took hold. Again feeling shaky, my entire body trembled.I had the impression that the space where I had been shackled to a chair made of metal and prayed I wouldn't pass away was still there. I've only spent a few years on earth, and that night was the only time I prayed that I wouldn't pass away because I still had so much to do. To save my life, I begged.I cautiously stood up and leaned against the bed's headboard. Clifford, my husband, spat when the bedroom door finally opened. I assumed that he was holding a platter that was filled with food.I gulped quickly out of fear and trepidation. However, I was aware that I had to struggle again
Khlea’s Point of View“You just woke up, Khlea?” The8 asked me when I passed him in the pool area. He was taking a bath and it looked like he had been there for a while.“Hmm. Have you eaten yet?”The8 went up and took the towel that was on the bench. He wore boxers and wiped his body. “It’s been a while since I’ve been hungry again.”I laughed a little. “So, what did you eat for breakfast?” I crossed my arms across my chest.“Coffee and bread, but Seven, he cooked an omelette.”“How about Allison?” I asked.He thought for a moment. “It’s like I didn’t see her eat earlier, but she was at the racing field. Just go if you want to invite her to eat breakfast.” “Okay. Are you leaving later?”“Of course. You also coming with us. The four of us will leave later.”I frowned. “I’m with you.” Although I know that the four of us will actually leave later. I just thought it wasn’t because I’m too lazy to act now.“Of course. I’ll get dressed first.”“Okay. I’m just going to meet Allison at the
HIS REASON FOR ABDUCTING MENISHANE'S Point Of View I TRIED to be as undetectable as possible by dressing up, just as Clifford had advised. The rumors about me spread like a virus even though they were untrue, so I tried to conceal it even more. Yes, it's true that the report about me was false. My mother, who was present, simply hushed up the problem. Clifford informed me previously that my false statement would be released the following day. As it turns out, my mother is responsible for the news about me that is circulating online when I go into my account… to talk about me and prevent fans from finding me.When it comes to news involving myself, I detest being tardy. I'm able to view somehow. My fans are unaware that I also set up a social media account. I'm aware that I've already generated some conversation even though the fake statement wasn't still publicized. Furthermore, I am aware that what they know is that I am just having my vacation and that is the reason why I su
Khlea’s Point of View“Why did you agree to what she wanted, Khlea?” Allison asked me as we left the coffee shop and were walking towards the parking area where Velvet was parked.I frowned. The tone of Allison’s speech seemed to be different, as if she was annoyed. “What if I agree, Allison? The person is already sick. It would be a pity if I didn’t give in, wouldn’t it?”She faced me. “How can you be so sure that what she says is true?”“What do you mean?”“Is it legitimate that she’s sick? Maybe later that’s just her way of getting you back to her. You shouldn’t agree right away until you’re sure.”“Allison, maybe Cindy won’t make up a story just to make me stay. It’s a bad joke to have me. She still has cancer.” For me, such a thing is very sensitive and should not be made into a joke. Cindy has no reason to use being seriously ill as an excuse.“Even so. You should have looked carefully first. What if it’s not true that she’s sick? Then you didn’t divorce her, so she’s fooled you
I AM GOING TO WIN YOUR HEARTNISHANE'S Point of View WE RODE back to the home where the security had me and Clifford detained in an opulent limousine. Since I was still unable to comprehend the words Clifford had left me in the enormous mansion where we had been, I kept quiet as we traveled home.Simply said, I am in awe. I find it difficult to believe Clifford has such a weak motive. He compelled me to become his wife after kidnapping me solely because he desired a wife. I wasn't coerced, in actuality. They told me that we are both married when I just woke up from their scheme. I never got the opportunity to appeal. He had no opportunity to speak with me at all. There was no opportunity to even alert me. That's what I have; I just woke up.How fair is that? Naturally, no.My human rights were taken away from me. I lost my citizenship rights. I lost the ability to make my own decisions. Considering that they denied me the right. Why did they abuse me like this? How could my mum
