Chapter 37 the culprit behind the kidnap
After that, he took off his cape, looking at her he walked towards her. “remember me, baby, you left me for that motherfucking asshole.” Looking at his face, grace gasped as realization dawned. Nickolas. “Why are you doing this, we already separated a long time ago, and it was you who did not want me.” Laughing maniacally, he bent to the same level as her eyes, “leave you, of course, I left you. No, you were the one who decided to cut yourself off my company. I provided for you and catered to your every fucking need and you left me?
You belong to me Grace, from the very first moment. Your body is mine, and now you have soiled it by being with that boy toy. You think I did not know; I’ve been watching you both go and come back from work together. Have seen your heated gazes towards each other. By the time I am done with you, you won’t even be able to look at him again. Holding her face in between his hands, he forced her to face up. Have you missed me, baby? I have missed making love to you. You know the way you used to just lay on the bed and let me do things to you. It was amazing.”
As he was talking, his phone rang and he moved to the corner to answer it. “Hello, yes sir I have her right here with me. Just where we agreed to meet, I hope you have already wired the money, otherwise do not blame me for the consequences.” He finished speaking into the phone then turned to look at her. “feel happy you are of use to this client, otherwise, I would already deal with you.”
It did not take long before the hum of a car stopped just outside the warehouse. A knock on the door indicated the arrival of another person and despite herself, grace was curious about who had ordered her kidnap. When he got inside the warehouse, she was flabbergasted. Who else could it have been other than the sneaky old martin? Why he had not chosen the easier way out she could not fathom, but here he was, and looking by eyes, he had a hidden agenda. Picking his phone, he took a photo of her tied on the seat and sent it to Alex.
“I know that Alex values you so much that he will not stand you being kidnapped. Everything will eventually work in my way.” It did not take long before Alex called the number. Martin had planned to ask for a ransom of one billion dollars before he went away. Looking at him, he looked psychotic. After the call, martin turned to face her and started looking at her. “ha-ha now that I have you here, I should probably enjoy you while Alex brings the money. Huh, the only problem is that you are pregnant but that is not such a big deal huh.”
At that point hiccupping, grace turned to face her aggressor, hoping that she was only experiencing a nightmare and not a reality. Martin looked scary, looking at her, he went and sat before her. “you want to hear a story huh. You want to know why you are here.”
Blinking back her tears, she quickly nodded her head to which he started talking.
“Where do I actually start grace, here do I start. You see Adam and I have been friends since time immemorial, attending the same universities and finally settling down to start this business you now see. We had been doing pretty well as we started from the very bottom. We had plans for huge businesses, but at that time our finances just did not allow room for bigger businesses. So, we had started off together in the same room. Working tirelessly to collect capital and making sure to invest in profit-worthy causes, which surprisingly generated good income.
This all happened before even Adam had gotten married or even Adam had Alex. So, it happened that at that time I traveled on a business trip to New York. While there, I met a woman, whom we immediately fell in love and everything was going on well until I came back with her to our residence. Things had changed slowly, my woman stopped caring for me. Every time I talked to her, she would change her demeanor and the most painful moment had been finding her and my friend Adam on the same bed.
Of course, at that time I was pissed off and within a short while, after Alex asked for my forgiveness, he was convinced that I had forgiven him and I had. Until I realized that almost every woman I wanted, wanted Adam instead. So, there was this girl, I had been watching her for some time at that time and had yet to gather the courage to talk to her. by the time I was talking to her, I realized that the fucking bastard had already approached her and they were already dating.
Every moment that they met grated on my nerves, and at that time, Adam was totally smitten. At this point, I decided that payback was a bitch and started dropping hints of unsavory behavior from Adam. Oh, I orchestrated everything to look very real. In this life at least I would be able to get one woman who Adam wanted and loved and even if I did not get her, they would be separate.
So, things between the two of them started going bad, and eventually, she had ended up in his bed. Oh, how I reveled in that success, what I did not know was that the bastard had already made her pregnant. So, at that time, we got serious with her, eventually having her marry me. Within a few months, she put to birth and I always claimed him as my son until a few years ago. Yes, the bitch kept away that information for a period of over twenty-five years.
So, when I got that information, I was at a loss. It had been my doing but so what, Adam had had a hand in all this and he had to pay. It was at that moment that I started planning things out with Stacy. Damn sweet Stacy she met my every need, you know that. She is a fucking whore and she thought I loved her but I didn’t. I just wanted an outlet for my frustrations she was there. Sex with her was… intriguing.
