Anyway, at that time, Adam had stopped being as serious with the company as before. So now getting money off was not hard. It was simply a snap of my fingers. But then Alex had to come and poke his hands where they did not belong. Even daring to threaten me. I know I already sold my shares and I was remaining with only one percent shares. But so, what, we began the company together and so of course I deserve a slice of the pie.
So, this is why you are here. Before I forget there is another reason you are here, your ex-boyfriend. The bastard was sniffing around your place, you would have guessed he was the one dropping the threats. We had expected that the threats from him would hide the ones from Stacy but things just did not work.
So now that I am done talking why don’t we get into work. You know you have a pretty face huh.” This turn of events made grace feel nauseated. She remembered the recording of what had happened with Stacy and she felt bile rise up from her belly. He moved towards her and started opening her blouse. She really regretted the fact that she was putting on a blouse right now instead of a dress. As he moved his hands to touch her breasts, she realized that the more she fought his touch, the more he was excited to touch him. She started taking calm breaths and trying to relax as he moved his hand across her ribcage.
That however did not last for long before the man grunted and fell on her. looking up, it was nick, he had stabbed him right in the back. At this moment he kept stabbing him until she could no longer hold on and she vomited all over martin. Screaming at him, he finally stopped stabbing him before he pushed him off her. she felt herself hyperventilating, there were colors swimming around her eyes and she finally blacked out.
Alex had been in the midst of a meeting when he received a text and an image. He did not know why, but his gut told him to just check and therefore he did. What he saw made him experience a cold sweat. Grace was tied on a chair, in an unknown location and he felt all air escape him. Before he could even grasp what, he was doing, he called that number and they demanded a ransom. As he listened, he realized that it was Martin, who was behind everything.
Grace had always been under constant security and so did not understand how she had been alone. Asking the directions where to drop the money, he moved out of the meeting room like a man set on fire. Grace was pregnant, how scared she must be feeling. Alex felt guilty, maybe he should have been more careful about her life.
He drove maniacally towards the closest bank where he tried withdrawing money. It was quite hard because he was taking a lot more money than usual and it was taking longer. He felt himself grow impatient with time and by the time he was rushing out of there, he could only hope that she would be alright. On his way, he called his friend to accompany him while involving his people. They were well-trained people, most of whom were retired army men.
Planning on how they would get into the place over the phone, he found himself praying fervently that she was okay. It took about forty-five minutes before he got to his destination. The place looked empty apart from a warehouse constructed from wood. They had to be there. Taking his phone to call and the phone was answered by someone else. “Have you arrived? I hope you had the sense to come to this place alone otherwise, she is a lost cause.”
Feeling himself tremble at the cold way the speaker spoke, he reassured him that he was alone. Even though he knew that he should probably wait for the rest of his buddies to arrive, he just could not keep staying there without a clue of what was happening with grace. When he got to the door, he tried peeping and he saw the man holding a knife to grace. At that time grace looked dead before he slapped her and she rose to stand upright from her position.
Making a leery smile, he spoke into her ears. “Do you know that your sweetheart has come? I can now get rid of two things at the same time. You grace are mine and will always be mine.” He said as he pressed the knife further into her skin on her waist. Just a little move and the knife would sink in. feeling exhausted, grace watched as he moved her towards the door. The whole place was a mess, blood sprayed all over and her vomit still littering the place.
He opened the door tentatively and Alex stood there with his hands raised up in the air. On the ground was a duffel bag that seemed to be full of money. Still pointing the knife towards her, he bowed to pick the bag and after griping it, he hung it on his arm, while commanding Alex to get in. he closed the door after him and directed Alex towards the seat. Alex looked over the place and he had to hold vomit in. it seemed martin was barely breathing; he had been stabbed. Even though he was in a lot of pain, he was kind of glad that it was only one opponent.
“Seat the fucking there,” Nicholas commanded while waving his knife about dangerously. He felt his heart skip at the way he was waving it. “Remember this face, huh, thought you had gotten rid of me when you had your people beat me up? Ha-ha, I should probably pay you up for every bump you caused me. See this missing tooth, it was your handiwork.” Laughing raucously, he made sure to tie Grace both her hands and legs.
