Chapter 120 - FLASHBACK
Chapter 120 - FLASHBACK
When people hurt you
over and over,
think of them as sandpaper.
They may scratch and hurt a bit,
but in the end, you end up
polished and they end up
useless.
*FLASHBACK*
Sharp lightning carved its way to the pitch black sky. Deafening thunder followed. The wind whistled a sad harmony and soon enough as if on cue, heavy rain started falling from the sky.
In the middle of the dimly-lit room, a king size bed stood. A woman as naked as a baby lies on top of it, her smooth porcelain legs wide open as she impatiently waits for him to touch her.
Vince Gresyon crushed the cigarette on the ceramic ashtray before slowly moving to the bed where she lay sprawled like a temptress. He discarderded his leather jacket?to the carpeted floor before climbing on top of her.
"Gotcha." He murmured, nuzzling his nose on the soft fragrance of her hair. She smelt?like the calming scent of cherry blossom and morning dew. It made him crave for her more. f𝔯ee𝘸𝘦𝚋𝒏oѵ𝐞l.c𝒐𝓂
She chuckled seductively before wrapping her dainty fingers tighty on his neck. She gently nibbled the bottom of his lips. All that was left of his self-restraint flew in an instant. Heat consumed his body with desire.
He?devoured her lips. His hands caressing the abundance of her bosom until she writhed for more. He couldn't wait anymore. He unbuckled his belt then unbuttoned his pants. Then he nudged her legs wider and plunged his hard manhood into her?moist core. Soon her soft, erotic moans filled the room like music. He quickened his pace until she screamed like crazy.
As he pounded inside her a different woman was inside his thoughts. She has the most alluring eyes he'd ever seen and she possesses a striking beauty that totally bewitched him. He?wanted her?so badly the way he never wanted anyone in his life. She was a drug he could never get enough of.
His face contorted with unimaginable pleasure while he quickened his thrust.
He imagined the woman moaning underneath him was the same woman his step-brother married.
He imagined her naked. Sprawled on the bed looking as beautiful as sin. Her gorgeous inky hair fell to her perfect collarbones then down to the enchanting curve of her breasts. She kept moaning as he pounded his shaft into her quivering core.
A moan escaped his lips as he thrust one last time, deeper this time, and emptied his seed inside her.
When he heard the door flutter close behind him he dislodged on top of her and zipped his pants. A sweet triumphant smile curled on his lips as his eyes surveyed the room which was shrouded in darkness.
It felt so damn good to use his step-brother's bed where he makes love with his wife since the imprints of her scent still lingers on the bed sheet . It's like an aphrodisiac that arouses his sexual desires.
His attention shifted back to bed to where his lover lay. Now that his desire has been fulfilled it's about time?he moves on to business.
"I want you to call Ace on the phone. Tell him his wife ran off with one of her lovers and she brought Vien with her."
He didn't wait for Angela to respond. He briskly moved to the door and left her lying there on the bed inside Ace's room.
He crept into the hall in silence until he reached her room. He found the door slightly ajar and he peeked on the tiny crevice. His step-brother's wife was inside and hastily packing her things into a large suitcase.
Tears tumbled freely down her smooth porcelain cheeks. He smiled triumphantly as he watched the agony in her beautiful countenance. Somehow, he found pleasure watching her tortured expression. If he'd only chosen her she would not suffer like this.
Poor naive Phoenix, he mumbled to himself as she finally fell into a horrible sobs that shook her fragile shoulders.
He couldn't believe that she could be fooled so easily. Just a few edited pictures of Ace with other girls and after she witnessed the scene in the bedroom he finally succeeded in deceiving her.
The one year old little girl woke up on her bed. The innocent child looked at her mother with wonder. She's so young to understand what's happening but she felt her mother's pain and comforted her with a hug.
"Everything's going to be fine, Vien." She whispered and laid a kiss on the child's soft, rosy cheeks. "We will stay in grandma and grandpa's house tonight."
She hurriedly closed the large suitcase and picked her daughter from the bed.
The door of her room opened. She was holding her child in her left hand while she was pulling her large suitcase behind her.
He continued to quietly watch her as he hid beside the antique statue of Aprhrodité until she reached the main door of the Greyson Mansion.
No one would stop Phoenix from leaving—not even his step-brother—he thought with satisfaction. Ace's car broke down and it would delay him from reaching the mansion.
When Phoenix was settled inside the car and sped away that's when he sneaked into his car and tailed behind her.
He dialed a number on his phone. It was answered at the first ring.
"Same plan. Bring the truck with you...make it appear like an accident." After that, he hung up then threw the phone on the seat beside him.
Lightning danced across the sky, the deafening sound of thunder followed, and the rain poured heavier this time. He saw Phoenix's car stopped near the intersection.
Things were becoming easier than he imagined. With her car stationary, it could be easily executed as if a car accident happened.
He parked the car far from hers.
The sound?of horn curiously blaring torr the night's silence. A fast approaching car losing it's control screeched through the pavement.
Wham!
The stationary car collided with the truck. The ear-splitting sound of metals colliding shattered the stillness of the night.
Vince pushed the door of his car open and clambered out. The rain soaked his clothes but he didn't care as he slowly made his way to the badly dented car.
When he opened the door of the car, he saw Phoenix, her arms protectively wrapped around her unconscious daughter. Blood leaked from the grievous wound on her head.
She was still alive. Suddenly, her eyes fluttered open. "H-help m-me…." She said weakly, her arms extended to his but he didn't make a move to take it.
Time for plan B. He thought and pulled a syringe out of his pocket, grabbed her pale fingers and injected the liquid through her veins. The syringe contains a hypnotic drug. After a person is injected with a dose of drug she will forget everything after the incident. She will only recall what was told to her to recall after the drug takes its effect.
"Your daughter, Vien, died tonight. She was trapped inside the car and you helplessly watched the car engulfed in flames. She died because of Ace. He never loved your daughter. From now on, you shall hate him. Never forget—he is the reason why your daughter died."
He let her palms go and it fell to her side. She tried to lift it but she don't have any strength left to. "Pppplleaase hhheeelp mmyy dddaughhter." After pleading one last time, she lost her consciousness.
The rain finally stopped pouring. The
the scent of leaking gas thickened in the air Anytime soon, the car would explode.
Vince pulled the unconscious child out of her arms then carried her inside his car and lay her in the backseat. Vien was fine, the only injury she had was a wound on her forehead. It was not big but it was bleeding.
He didn't turn the engine on and sped away. Instead, he watched until the rescue arrived and pulled Phoenix's unconscious body inside the car.
He watched when Phoenix recovered her consciousness and tried to get up so she could save her daughter inside the car but it was all too late. The gas leak was beyond control, before she could even reach the car, her wounded body gave up and she collapsed on the ground.
An ear-shattering explosion deafened my ears, the car tumbled upside down before it was engulfed in hellish flames.
It must have been so difficult when Phoenix thought she's the reason why her own daughter died. She must have been blaming herself all these years thinking if she didn't leave that night, Vien would be very much alive. She
Just like that…. Phoenix thought that their first born child died the night of the accident. Ace too though the same way.?Who could have guessed that the child was very much alive. He managed to keep the truth all these years. Until now no one found out. He must be very good at keeping secrets.
Vien would be his ultimate card. She would use her to lure Phoenix and Ace to their doom.fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮
