View MoreMANNYAndrew's father tried to control himself, he wasn't going to let loose in front of everyone.He lifted his eyes from the paper and gave Andrew a death glare, his face hard with fury.If eyes could kill, he'd surely be dead by now.How could he do something so senseless? After all his protestation?He closed his eyes and visibly relaxed himself. He wasn't surprised, his son never listens to him anyway.Always doing the opposite of what he was told. If not for the fact that Andrew was a chip of the old block, he would have wondered if he was truly his son.“We won't be able to help you Kate.” Her smile slowly faded and a frown on appeared on her face.“Anyone can fake a DNA test, we will have to conduct one ourselves.” Mr Allen said and tossed the envelope on the table making her get them herself.“I can always take my information to the media Allen.” Kate threatened.Andrew's father smirked and then laughed.Who did she think she was?“Tell them and we'll give them money to cov
ANDREWAndrew had his P. I working hard to find the voice behind the mask, he had somehow managed to record the whole thing and had given it to Carter.He had to find out who was behind this.The voice changer in the mask had done a very good job in concealing the culprit’s voice but he could have sworn, there was a hint of familiarity in his voice.“It's been so long since we went out to a party.” Jason busted into Andrew's study saying.He has been hanging around ever since the death of Andrew's mother trying to offer comfort and care to his best friend.“I don't feel like it.” Andrew replied in a bored tone.There was no time to waste, he had much on his plate and Jason's blabbing wasn't making it any better.“Come on man.” Jason pressed further, he needed him out of the house but Andrew was set on not going anywhere.“Did you take care of the triad?” Andrew asked as he typed away on his laptop.Those men were becoming a problem.Andrew gave his friend a ‘won’t you answer’ type of
*SOMEWHERE IN SYDNEY“The search for Mrs Gwendolyn Cooper is still ongoing. It is said that she might have been kidnapped and was unable to fight back due to her Dementia…” The news station changed as someone pressed the remote.“Tchh..they couldn't even keep it out of the news. Is he that desperate to find his mother?” A skinny man with sandy brown hair commented with a hoarse voice while trying to look for another channel that didn't mention the missing lady.He gazed at the woman sleeping in a wheelchair, “Why did they care so much for a woman who would barely make it? As far as he was concerned, she was a living corpse.“Dude!” Another voice came from the tattered-looking room and a buffed man appeared, looking almost identical to the skinny man.“You have to feed her, do you want her dead?” “She was going to anyway.” The skinny man said and roughly woke up Gwendolyn who was in a daze.“Caleb?”The two men groaned as they heard the name again. Andrew's mum has been saying the na
MANNYDaddy? What was going on? Did Andrew marry someone in the past and they had a child? Manny looked at the stuck-up lady and then glanced at the little boy holding her hand. This was Andrew's child? But they looked nothing alike!She took a better look at Andrew, perhaps she had missed something.“Kate?" Andrew finally spoke up, his voice hoarse with shock.Kate smiled cheekily and surprised him with a hug.Manny stood still like a statue, she didn't know how to react. Should she be happy that she no longer has to give Andrew a child or sad because someone had already beaten her to it?Nevertheless, she didn't say a word. She stayed, allowing Andrew and Kate to have their moment.After a long while, Andrew remembered Manny. He cleared his throat, “This is Manny..my wife.” He added the last statement like it left a bitter taste in his mouth and Manny didn't fail to notice.Why was he being like this?Kate gave her a condescending look and then plastered a fake smile on her face.
MANNYIt has been two days since the incident with Andrew's mother and since he forcefully tried to have sex with her.They didn't say a word to each other and slept in separate rooms. Manny always made sure the door was locked before she went to bed, she didn't want Andrew barging in.She could barely sleep in the last two nights, the blood from Andrew's mom and her crazy behavior kept her awake.Was she that ill? What kind of sickness was that? Was this what Andrew has been going through?She felt sorry for him. He had no one besides his father who didn't care about him. And now the only person who could look after him was sick. But he always looked like he had no problem going on.Maybe marrying him wouldn’t be so bad, she could stay by his side, loving him.Many quickly sat up on her bed and cleared the thought away from her mind.She shouldn't feel sorry for him, he practically raped her and he didn't even bother to apologize, he just ignored her presence.“I need to get the hel
MANNYManny’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets as she watched the video.She had gotten an anonymous text earlier, telling her she needed to know who her husband really was. A picture and a video came right after the text and that was what she was watching recently.She could feel her inside twist with disgust as she watched Andrew sell a lady to an ugly-looking man without remorse. Her eyes grew wider as she watched him kill everyone he crossed paths with.He was cold and ruthless and with a dead look in his eyes. Was this who she had agreed to marry? He gave that lady away like she was nothing. Was he going to sell her too? She went to the next slide, and a picture of Andrew kissing that same lady showed up. Manny felt a torrent of mixed emotions. They weren't married yet he was already cheating. Fury flared up in her as she continued looking at the picture, watching how their lips touched.But she also felt fear.Andrew was going to sell her too, she was sure of it. He was
ANDREW“Why don't I go first?" All heads turned to the masked man who stood up, wondering who he was and why he was disrupting this event.“What are you doing? Are you trying to get us killed?” Jason whispered through his teeth, he shouldn't have expected something like this. Andrew never followed through with any plans they made. They were just to observe and leave but he just had to make a scene.“Please sir, have your seat. This isn't how it's done." The man standing on the stage holding a microphone cautioned him.Andrew grinned as he kept standing, now that he had gotten their attention, it was time to make a move.If these copycats think they could get away with imitating his business, they were so wrong. Auctioning humans was for the Coopers and everyone should know that. “We're all here for the same reason aren't we?" He then stretched his hands towards Brenda, she took it and stood beside him.“I have a very fine breed right here." He said, referring to Brenda like she wasn
ANDREW“I'll marry you.” That was the last thing he heard before drifting off to sleep.The next day in the afternoon, Andrew woke up to Manny’s soft snores, last night was the warmest he had ever felt. He had slept for so long.It looks like all the effort his father had put into his plan will go down the drain because he wasn't ready to let Manny go.He recalled the last statement she said before he fell asleep, she had finally accepted his proposal, and it was for the better. He'd be able to protect her if she was close, he would have to tell his lawyer to make an upgrade to the contract.Manny mumbled and shifted in the bed as she woke up, fluttering her eyes open slowly. Andrew’s face was all over hers looking at her with an expression she couldn't decipher.Love? No, she was getting ahead of herself, maybe likeness then, it was better to start little. She looked back at him in admiration. This was the second time they were sleeping in the same bed, together. But this time, sh
MANNYThe drive back home was silent, tense, and awkward, unspoken words hung in the air.Manny kept glancing at Andrew’s mother from the corner of her eyes and back at Andrew again. When she saw his mother at the hospital, her heart broke for him, she was frail and pale, and she struggled to wheel herself towards Manny.You could see she didn't want to give up, she was still holding up because of her son. Her smile brightened her face when she saw Andrew but he looked devastated. Was her illness that bad? She didn't know what it was yet.“You are staring, it's rude.” Andrews' voice snapped her out of her head. She had been staring at him all this while she was thinking.“Sorry.” Manny mumbled and turned around, only to find his mum asleep.As they reached home, Manny breathed heavily and stepped out. The car was suffocating and she couldn't handle the tension that grew as they drove.When they stepped into the house, boxes were scattered around. It looked like someone was home. Andr
