Away From My Mr Wrong: Finding Love in Unexpected Ways

THERE was a soft knock. 

"Come in," Charlotte muttered. A maid walked in with a tray of food.

"Here, master asks that you have some food."

Charlotte forces a smile at the petite lady who exits the room. She stares at the cluster of plates and then shifts her gaze. She can't eat food given to her here. She feels a vibration in her Jean pocket, her phone rang. She answers the call.

"Where are you? And why are you on the news Charlotte?" The caller was her younger brother, Jeffery.

"I don't know Jeff." She but her lips as her eyes wandered around the room.

That lunatic had abducted her. She thought. She had absolutely no idea where this house is located but she sure was certain it was far from town.

"Grandma is worried sick. She watched the local news."

Charlotte's eyes fell, her poor Grandmother must be panicking.

"Mr Maguire called our house" Jeffery spoke up.

Charlotte's eyes glit. "What did he say?"

Jeffery went dead silent for awhile which made her almost freak out bulging her eyes in suspense.

"Jeff"

"He's says you are fired"

The words resounded in her head. Charlotte froze.

"Fired?"

"I'm sorry, I know-"

"I put my life on the line Jeff," Her voice had become hoarse.

The phone beeps and then goes dead.

"Damn!" Charlotte exclaimed in frustration. Her cellphone had to die at this critical moment. She bit her lips furiously thinking of her next move. She has to get out of this maniacs house.

Meanwhile at Wesley Jamison co limited, Wesley and his board members had just concluded a meeting. The men and women dressed in formal attire exited the big conference room, going about their various business for the rest of the day.

"Hey man!" Cross calls out to Wesley who seemed absentminded. He wondered what the devil was scheming in his head. He had concluded other deals and must be planning his next takeover. 

Wesley sat with his chin clenched, looking out the window. At the sound of Cross' voice, he jerked.

"Yes Cross"

"You won… like you always do"

"I told you. Let Mr Maguire piss in his pants." Wesley scoffed laughing hard that tears trickled down his eyes. 

They had company in the room, Rachel, Wesley's Clerk.

"Hey Rachel" Wesley called out to her, she was busy cleaning up the place.

"Yes boss"

"Call my penthouse off town, tell them to treat my guest." 

Rachel pauses, "Yes boss".

"I want you dismissed today. Go over and keep my guest company. I don't trust those witty maids." 

Rachel marveled at his next outburst, the slender lady adjusted her spectacles. She exchanged glances with Cross and then exited the room. She overheard cross and the driver talk about how their boss had abducted a protesting lady this morning.

"So why did you take her to your place?" Cross broke the silence.

"Miss Charlotte and I have an unfinished business " Wesley smirked.

"Huh, whatever her name is. I just know you aren't a hero."

Wesley winced a bit. He began to pout his lips.

"Stop pouting your lips man" Cross lashed out irked. 

"We have a history. She's the mystery girl I picked up that night-"

"You've got to be kidding me" Cross scoffed.

"Yea- it's fate." He rolled his eyes. "I was never able to get my mind off her and I still can't help it. I didn't even realize myself until I had her about my arms. I wanted to devour her in my car. Man, you needed to see how shocked she was. She could never have imagined seeing my ass again and in that embarrassing manner."
