FORESHADOW
Beep... Beep... beep
The sound of the electrocardiogram accompanied by the sound of abrupt coughing emanated behind closed doors.
The man on the sickbed coughed abruptly as he fought so hard to stay alive. His face looked white and pale as if he had all his blood drained, his lips dried and peeled
He laid lifeless staring into space, his look of regret could not be hidden in his now pale face as beads of tears roll down his cheek freely.
"He is here!!" a woman's voice echoed
The room door flung open, an expressionless man in his late 30s neatly dressed in his military uniform walked in with large strides he strode to the side of the bed looking down on the man on the bed, he had his hands running through his disheveled hair as ominous thoughts squirmed at the back of his head he blurted out
"Where is it, where did u hide the book?"
Immediately he got wind of the news he hurried down here, this is the only chance he has to find that book
"Ahh… ahh… Noelia" with his hand raised he struggled to speak
On seeing this he bent down to his level straining his ears to get his word
"THE BLACK BOOK………
Beeeeeeeep
CHAPTER 1
SUN AFTER THE STORM
A lady in a short black flayed gown had snow-white skin and a small face. Her ass length hair had been braided into a ponytail. She made her way out of the gate of a white big villa with her flashing eyes and dilated pupils. She was immersed in her joy while turning blind eyes and deaf ears to her surrounding, her little hands caressed her flat stomach gently as she flung the door to her black Bentley open and got in.
BOOM!!
The car exploded
…………….
Walking out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, Noelia looked at the marriage certificate in her hands with mixed feelings, it still felt surreal, out of habit she reached out her hand and fiddled her waist length hair, glancing at the marriage certificate again she suddenly realized she was married.
A part of her was sad for not getting her dream wedding with her mister right
A part of her was brewing with happiness having to marry her first sight lover, it was something she never thought will come to light considering the status of her now husband.
A day before the marriage
It was a summer morning, the temperature was high and the sun shone brightly above the sky in Sin city. Everyone was happy as they were ready to welcome the new CEO of the country's biggest conglomerates company and the new military general of Sin city
All news agencies in Sin city broadcasted the news because it is usually a big ceremony for the Harrison co-operation and the biggest event in Sin City.
During this event, there is a change in power in Sin City as the new CEO becomes the military General of Sin city, also to commemorate this event some lucky individuals were employed as employees for the new CEO which a lot of people saw as a privilege.
Everyone was joyful and that includes Noelia who was employed as the personal assistant to the new CEO of Harrison in-cooperated the almighty William Harrison, who wouldn't be thrilled considering his position in Sin city and his well-defined looks. Noelia felt luck was finally on her side as she held the letter of employment with trembling hands.
Having no time to spare she ran to her room to get dressed for the induction ceremony as it was slated to hold in an hour time. The employment letter had been delivered earlier last week but she stopped checking a long time as she was not confident that she will be employed, there were lots of dignified and well learned applicants on the day of the interview but she was clumsy and forgetful. Today she came to clear out the mailbox when she saw the latter of appointment.
Before going in to dress up Noelia ordered an online taxi who was right in time immediately she was done dressing she saw the taxi waiting at the front of the villa.
In less than a few minutes Noelia was standing in front of the biggest and tallest building in Sin city, it was known as the pride of Sin city, the head office of Harrison co-operation.
It stood tall like the pyramid of power with its
In other to create a good impression as she was already late on her first day of work Noelia ran to a nearby coffee shop to get coffee for her colleagues and of course her boss, she didn't know how much they had employed hence she got the amount her hands could carry and ran swiftly to the company's building.
After asking directions from literally everyone, she found herself standing in front of the meeting room on the 100th floor, she took in a deep breath and hurriedly flung the door open.
Without looking up ahead Noelia made her way into the room and immediately bumped into a hard but fleshy wall which made the coffee spill on both party, as it was just brewed the coffee was still hot, prepared to give the blind party a piece of her mind she raised her now pale face to meet two cold phoenix eyes throwing daggar at her
Her mouth flew open staring at the handsome party
The man was taller than her for almost a head, she stood close to him like a bird rest upon a man, he was neatly dressed in a military outfit, and he had sharp edges and well-defined features, he exuded this cold aura which suit his demeanor.
How could she not know him, the infamous William Harrison.
