....
Soon , Raymond walked out of the bathroom ,with his upper body bare , Marianne couldn't help but stare at his perfectly outlined body and abs.
Raymond ,looked at Marianne and said. Anne , you are drooling .
Huh , Marianne reached out to wipe her mouth but didn't find any drool only then did she find out that Raymond had tricked her she glared at him and said before hiding under the quilt. You tricked me .
Hahah, Raymond chuckled and went to the wardrobe to grab his night wear. Well ,your eyes wanted to fall out .
How is that possible , Marianne said still hiding under the covers.
Raymond quickly got dressed and went over to pull the quilt and said. How are you breathing under there.
Marianne ,half knelt on the bed and said. Hey give me that , I want to sleep .
Raymond looked at her and said. Promise me that if I give it to you , you won't cover your face.
Marianne thought for a moment and nodded.
Raymond gave in and threw the quilt at her.
Marianne caught the quilt and smiled she immediately threw the quilt and covered her face tightly.
Raymond shook his head lightly, and said before tickling her. Ann ,I warned You before this don't blame me.
After that he started tickling her .
Hahahahahah, Ray , Hahahaha stop....Hahahah ,I ..... Hahahaha,am.... Hahaha.... sorry Hahahaha.
Raymond , didn't budge he continued tickling her and said. Are You going to listen to me.
Hahahaha ,yes... Hahahaha Marianne said,almost out of breath.
Raymond actually intended to continue ,but a message popped up on his screen.
He let her go and picked up his phone to see who the message was from.
Marianne who was free , drank a glass of water and sat far away from Raymond afraid that he will come at her again.
Raymond who saw the content of the message ,turned to look at Marianne and said. Anne you can rest I have some work to do ,I am just in the study in the room ,if you need me just knock .
Marianne looked at him and said ,is everything okay ,your voice changed after receiving the message.
Raymond who didn't want to worry Marianne , walked up to her and said ,I am fine it is just a small matter ,You can sleep I am off ,he kissed her forehead and left.
Marianne ,knew that he had his own privacy and she shouldn't disturb him, so she lay down and soon fell asleep.
In the study.
Raymond entered his study , and sat on his working sit. He opened the message and read it.
(To my newest enemy)
It is nice to meet you ,I wanted to settle scores with your grandfather but You involved your self so I am going to settle two scores now. I don't think I need to introduce myself , because I know you already know who is texting you .
I heard you got married ,it would be a pleasure to meet your lovey wife ,maybe at the mall or at a spa. But I will make sure I meet her.
You know if not for her coming into the picture ,my granddaughter wouldn't have been hurt but never the less it gives me more room for revenge.
But You should enjoy your marriage while it lasts because I will come unexpectedly ,but you will see signs of me soon .
Don't worry ,I will send my marriage blessings soon.
Raymond kept staring at the message on the screen ,he rubbed his forehead in frustration , he went to his call log and dailed David's number.
Sir what would you like me to do for you, Assistant David's voice sounded as soon as the call connected.
Arrange two bodyguards for Anne ,send them to the mansion tomorrow and also arrange bodyguards for mum dad and grandpa and grandma and ask Jackson , Rhett and seb to meet me in the base tomorrow after work. And also make sure that Stephen returns Charles to the Griffin family tomorrow.
Okay sir ,David replied.
And after that Raymond hung up the call.
He took a deep breath and stood up to go back to his room.
.....
When he got inside the room he saw that Marianne was already asleep. He looked at her peaceful sleeping face and felt a pang of pain , because by marrying her her life had already been in danger. Although he didn't know who she was ,but even even if she was not the girl from high school,her life would still be in danger.
Did he make a mistake by marrying her , Raymond lay down on the bed lost in deep thoughts. He closed his eyes to calm down and soon he fell asleep.
While Others were asleep , Grandfather willson was still awake lost in thought. He seemed to be remembering his past about what happened to him and kalius .
ROLAND FLASHBACK.
In a boat .
Roland and kalius were fighting a group of people In other to rescue their wives who were tied to a ticking time bomb.
Roland , You have to go and save them I will fight them off , Kalius said to Roland.
Roland nodded and went up to Ann and Kate.
Ann ,was nearer while Kate was a little far away. Roland looked at Kate ,who seemed to have no Injury and at Ann who was covered in bruises and had already fainted.
He rushed up to her and Untied the rope . He immediately disconnected the bomb ,he was an expert in disconnecting time bombs. He carried her to a safe place and rushed back to safe Kate.
Boom!!!!! .
Before Roland could reach Kate ,the boat exploded.
Kate , Kalius who was still fighting with the thugs shouted when he saw his wife been blasted off by the bomb.
All the thugs that they were fighting all ran away.
He rushed forward wanting to jump into the boat but Roland stopped him.
Kalius it,s dangerous ,I am sorry I couldn't safe her.
Kalius pushed Roland away and said. It's all your fault ,and you have the mind to tell me that she couldn't make it.
Kalius I am sorry,Ann was already on the verge of collapse ,so I had to safe her before she falls off the boat ,I didn't know that they bomb would explode.
You did it on purpose,you knew that Ann was nearer while Kate was far away ,but You still choose your wife over mine.
Roland was fed up and shouted. What did You want me to do ,I am sorry that you lost your wife but I didn't know that this would happen, Ann was injured and was likely to fall off the boat but Kate , was perfectly fine ,did I do wrong by saving Ann. Come on kalius don't allow this change our relationship.
It already did ,Roland I will come back for You ,mark my words I will surely settle scores with you. Kalius said suddenly disappearing into thin air.
BACK IN REALITY.
Roland snapped back In reality. All this years he had never thought about what kalius had said to him but now he did , because he knew that kalius ment what he said.
He looked at Ann who was sleeping soundly he took a deep breath and closed his eyes to sleep.
