Gala night preparation,Lucian glanced at Krystie with a smile as he held the car door for her. They had just reached the Hilton hotel, the very same hotel that hold memories of their first night together."Krystie, can you do me a favor, there is a gala night event and I would like you to accompany me?" Lucian had requested his eyes sparkling with anticipation. Krystie had nodded, her cheeks flushed, no matter how much she could have wished to reject him, she could not bring herself to do so, he had been so good to her, and the main reason was she was legally his wife. Lucian smiled as he led her into the restaurant, he was feeling a surge of affection for the woman by his side. He had orchestrated this lunch date to perfection, knowing Krystie deserved nothing but the best. One thing that always brings joy to Lucian's life is watching Krystie's eyes sparkle when she sees food.For the previous full week, Krystie had been so busy with her work that she had barely gone home. Seeing h

As Krystie made her way towards the washrooms, a young attendant followed her. She had been transferred a large amount of money to do such a simple task, and as she was short of cash, she was never going to let such a chance slip away. "Target on the move!"The attendant had just received the notification, which was a clue for her to take action, and without wasting time, she immediately stopped serving the drinks and followed Krystie down the hallway. Immediately Krystie entered the washroom, with a glance around to ensure no one was watching, the attendant deftly switched off the lights from the main switch, and locked the door behind her, plunging the washrooms into darkness.To ensure the effectiveness of her work, she placed a board written, 'under maintenance,' and hurriedly left, her work was done. Inside the washroom, Krystie stood frozen in the darkness, her heart pounding in her chest like a drum. Every breath felt like a struggle as the darkness pressed in around her, suf

"Chloe, are you sure about this? It is already very late, and am afraid if Krystie were to find this out she would kill me," Raymond, Chloe's colleague and also one of Krystie's friends whispered."Krystie is at home for a one-week leave, she will never find out!You will not tell her, and I will never tell her too, so no way she will know any of this unless you are planning to...""No! No way!" Raymond spoke hurriedly, he was never going to risk his life that way but seeing the smirk on her lips he knew immediately that he had been played.Raymond, Chloe, and Krystie had attended the same school from kindergarten, and Raymond had always noticed how protective of her younger sister Krystie had been that he had always been afraid to mess up with Chloe, it was something else to deal with Krystie Jackson! Chloe’s heart raced as she adjusted the wig on her head, ensuring it covered every strand of her blonde hair. Even though she was pretending to not show on the surface how scared she w

Krystie's heart started beating rapidly, she had never been to the second floor, and sure enough, she was tempted to find out what it was that Lucian didn't want her to see.Krystie decided to check it out, she wanted to confirm whether what she had read was the truth or not, she took the stairs, with every step her heart pounding very first against her chest, she was at a crossroads, on one side she wanted to respect Lucian's privacy but on the other side she was so curious that she could not hold it in. Sure enough, when Krystie reached the second floor, the first thing that came to her site was a door, painted all black, unlike the rest of the doors in the house that were painted brown.Krystie's heart couldn't stop beating, she could feel it pounding against her chest, she was nervous and scared at the same time. She was scared to find the truth, unlike how she had thought it, she found her legs going numb that she could not even take a step forward.Krystie dragged herself to the

It was already a week ever since Krystie got injured, and all this while there was never a day that Lucian had had her move around the house he had transferred his office to home, and most of the time he was working from home, conducting virtual meetings with the business partners. Krystie didn't see the need for all this, because he was only forming a mountain from an anthill, but on the other side she was touched because all her life there was nobody who had ever done so much for her, she was so used to doing things all by herself. "Krystie don't move, I already warned you that in case you need anything all you got to do is call out to me," Lucian warned as he rose from his seat running towards her, leaving his employees stunned, it was shocking for the boss to leave such an important meeting midway just to attend to a woman, everyone in the office knew how much the boss hate the ladies being around him that even he had employed only males to take up the position of the secretarie
