?Will hardened heart falls in love again??
?Chapter 17?
Dani’s Pov:
“I can’t believe my friend is in love again” I screamed as Cristine smiled
“I can’t even figure it out…. Andrew is such a nice guy” Cristine said as she gulped down a glass of wine.
“You know I’ve always wanted you to be this happy…. Am glad you finally flushed that waste you called your ex husband out of your memories” I added.
“He’s dead and gone to me now…. James is out for good” Cristine assured me
“And the wedding band? I mean the ring you always keep beside your bed?” I asked anxiously
She scratched her hair.
“Huh? It’s still there?” I asked almost yelling.
“Uhmm… I…. I actually… I…. I…. Forgot to…” She stammered
“I just reminded you now! So let’s get going! You will have to dispose that garbage this minute” I said as I dragged up.
We walked into her room and I picked up the wedding band (ring) beside her bed as usual.
She collected it from me and threw it into the trash bin beside her.
I scoffed as I quickly picked it up.
“What?” She asked confused
“No girlfriend! When I say dispose it, I mean permanently” I said as I dragged her to the toilet.
“What are we doing here?” She asked in surprise.
I quickly handed the ring to her.
“Here Cristine! Flush that useless wedding ring down the toilet” I said as she smiled.
“Of course Daniella” She said as she quickly throw the ring into the toilet and pressed the water button.
The ring flushed down the toilet and we smiled at each other.
“That’s my girl… Now James is dead in your life and you have absolutely nothing to do with him” I said as we hugged each other.
Am really happy for my girl friend ?
The unknown’s Pov:
I gulped down the content of the bottle and dropped it on the table carelessly.
“Are you being serious right now James? Why should this affect you?” Morgan asked anxiously
“Man that’s my wife we are talking about here” I said sharply
Morgan scoffed.
“What wife? You mean your ex wife?” He laughed as I gulped and backed him.
“You’re such a fool…. I can’t believe she already replaced me” I lamented
“Why won’t she? Like what do you even care?” Morgan said
“I care Morgan and I don’t give a fvck if you don’t believe me” I tut loudly
“You dumped her for crying out loud James and you also duped her” Morgan half yelled
“Even at that? I still love her…” I snapped.
Morgan rolled his eyes at me.
“Can you stop being a joker? You love her and you duped her? You love her and you annulled your marriage with her?” Morgan asked
“That was because I had no choice” I said
“Oh dmn! Don’t give me that garbage as an answer… Wake up dude! She’s never gonna want to see your face” Morgan said as I bit my lower lips.
“I will never live to see her give her heart to another man,,,,,, she’s mine” I grunted.
All I have to do is to find the rude girl.
I need to know where she got the picture from.
I gnashed my teeth….
Sofie’s Pov:
I searched tirelessly almost the whole house.
Throwing it all in disarray.
“Where could it be?” I groaned as sweat rolled down my face.
Am actually looking for a picture.
I scratched my head in annoyance.
Just then, the land telephone rang aloud noisly.
I felt like throwing that God forsaken telephone away.
I picked up the call shouting loudly into the speaker.
“Who are you?” I screamed
“I have the picture” A calm voice said from the telephone as my eyes widened in shock.
I looked at the telephone still shocked.
“Who are you?” I asked with a shaky voice
“Let’s meet at Savannah park at exactly 4pm tomorrow…” The voice said hoarsely this time that I flinched.
Before I could say another word, the call already hung up.
Fear gripped me as I looked around in fear.
Could it be that the caller knows I want to give the picture to the hired killers?
I fell on the couch still gobsmacked.
**NEXT DAY ? 4pm**
I walked into the park with my handbag clutched to my arm.
My heart skipped a beat.
I sighted a guy backing me in a black attire.
I became scared the more and turned to leave but his voice stopped me.
He made some noise by clicking his fingers together.
“Am right here!” I could hear him giggled.
I gulped nervously as I gathered courage and walked up to him.
He was wearing a black hat and eyeglasses.
“Sit” He ordered me and I smirked.
“I don’t take orders from anyone Mr! What do you want and who are you?” I asked in the meanest voice I can.
He smiled and frowned almost immediately.
He gently took off his glasses.
“Am James Miss Sofie” He said stretching his hand for a hand shake.
I was still shocked how he got to know my name but I didn’t show it.
And I never shook him so he brought down his hand.
“I repeat Mr James what do you want?” I asked sternly
“Am here for business… He have what I want and she have what you want so we will only work together to get back what we want” He said as I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion…….
