122 A Demented Mind
“What did you just put in your mouth, Silvia?” Ella’s eyes flared. Her chest tightened and her heart started thumping loudly as she watched Silvia’s whole body tremble vigorously due to whatever she swallowed.
Silvia’s bulging eyes were transfixed on Ella as if she was trying to say something. She forcefully gripped and tore out a black button of her shirt.
“Ella, quickly send for help!” Denise said in a high-pitched alarmed tone.
“Oh no, oh God! Denise, Silvia is convulsing!” Ella sprang to her feet. In Ella’s panicked state, she quickly buzzed in her security men before running over to the other side of her table to help Silvia.
“Don’t touch her, Ella!” Denise stopped Ella from incriminating herself. “We don’t know what she took or the effect on other people. Allow your security men to deal with it.”
Before Ella’s security details stormed into her office, Silvia had already fallen off the chair and was convulsing vigorously on the floor. Whitish foamy substances were coming out of her quivering mouth and her pupils were dilating. Her skin was turning pale and one of her nostrils was bringing out blood.
In her final moment, Silvia did something saintly. She knew that she was going to die from the deadly pill Luke had instructed her to take once she observed that she was in danger of being caught.
Using all her remaining strength, Silvia tossed the black button she had ripped off her shirt toward Ella before she slowly lost consciousness.
Two of Ella’s security men came over to where Silvia’s trembling body was, picked her up, and swiftly left the office.
.....
“Ma’am, are you alright? Were you hurt?” The head of Ella’s bodyguard asked in a slightly alarmed tone. He was worried due to the horrific look on Ella’s face and he feared the consequences of a single scratch on Ella’s body. Leon had promised him an excruciating death if any scratch was found on his precious wife’s body.
“I’m fine! I’m fine!! Get me some water!” Ella said in a trembling voice. She had just witnessed Silvia struggle with death and the image was already taunting her.
“Why did she toss her black button toward me?” Ella pointed at the object on the floor with a trembling finger.
Everyone’s eyes were redirected to the black button-like object on the floor. The button was a few inches away from where Silvia’s body had initially been.
“I think she was trying to tell me something with her eyes before she weakly threw that button in my direction.” A tear escaped Ella’s shimmering eyes.
One of the company’s security personnel walked over to where the black button was, cautiously examined it, and picked it up when he discovered that it bared no threat.
“This is not a regular button, ma’am!” The security personnel spoke in a serious tone. “It’s... it’s... It’s a high-tech micro camera designed to look like a button!” His eyes widened at his revelation.
“What?” Ella and Denise screamed in unison.
—————-
Before Luke Robinson sent Silvia to her death, he strictly admonished her on the dangers and consequences of being caught.
He told her that if she succeeded in her mission, the lives of her mum, uncle, and other relatives would be spared. He also threatened her that if she failed, her definite death would be the least of her problems.
All Luke yearned for, was a chance to see and understand Ariella in her most vulnerable state. Due to the bad blood existing between both companies, he knew he would never be allowed to check out Ariella’s company or her office or even relate with her in the way Silvia did.
Luke was eager to see how smart, fierce, or dangerous Ariella was. He also wanted to use Silvia’s death as leverage to build a formidable and trusting alliance with her.
If the camera was discovered on Silvia’s corpse, it would never be linked to him or the Robinsons. Instead, Kyle would be blamed again for trying to frame Ella through his niece.
As Luke watched the live-streaming video on his laptop, which came from Silvia’s hidden camera, he was impressed and overwhelmed by the beauty and magnificence of the APB fashion company. He was also amazed by the luxurious and sophisticated designs used by the Treshvires.
“Hmm... This company is going to be a worthy opponent!” He mused incoherently while smiling evilly to himself.
When Silvia finally entered Ella’s office, Luke’s mouth dropped and his heart started beating randomly.
His eyes were beholding a red hair goddess whose piqued angelic face was more beautiful than he had ever fantasized. He held his breath as the camera focused on her glowing enchanting face. His mind suddenly went blank and the voice of the arrogant lady speaking beside Silvia turned into a distant echo.
Luke swallowed hard severally as his body, mind, and soul yearned for this angelic forbidden fruit; which was making him pant like a dog in heat. He felt all his features harden as he softly stroked the image of her captivating face on his laptop.
“Oh, Ariella, what are you doing to me?” He whispered in a hoarse voice as longing seeped through his entire system. He felt the heat travel from his toes up to his groins, making them bulge out. A million erotic desires crowded and consumed his blank mind and within a short while, his hand found its way to his cork; which he started massaging.
“Oh shit! How can I be lusting over another man’s wife!” He verbally stroked himself.
However, this did not save him from the torment and yearning of his body. Instead, he wished he could have her for himself. He wished he could freeze time, go over to her and have sex with her all day. He wished Leon was dead and Ella was a widow so that he could happily take her away.
He looked into Ariella’s magical Jade green eyes and pictured her naked. He closed his eyes, bit down his lips, and allowed his fantasy to run wild. His heart was thumping loudly and his head was banging.
He unzipped his trousers and released his hardened shaft; which was screaming for mercy at the torment it was passing through. He moistened his hands with his saliva and massage his dick in a vigorous up-and-down motion until his groins exploded with pleasure.
When Luke opened his eyes and stared back at his laptop screen. His cheerful expression suddenly changed to a deadly glare. Instead of the beautiful image of his most cherished Ariella, the hard feature on a man’s face stared back at him.
“Where did my precious Ariella go?” Luke queried his demented mind.
