At All Cost

HIS HIDDEN MOTIVE

Peter Saint leaned back in his leather chair. "Coffee," he ordered.. What are your new intentions towards her, his personal assistant said. He looked up at him and said what's the concern all about. His assistant said, "The plan was to make her suffer," his assistant said.

"So why are you changing course now?”. Your character towards her seems to be cooling off.

Peter Saint said ‘When is the meeting to be scheduled’. Peter Saint's personal assistant in confusion knowing he didn't want to talk about his new motive towards her. Meeting!! You say. Peter Saint said again, get me a cup of coffee.

Peter Saint's personal assistant on a phone call with a deep voice saying to him, ‘What’s the plan and where's it heading to’. Things are turning, not going as planned. I believe he is hiding something even away from me, Peter Saint's personal assistant said. The dial tone sounds signaling the end of the call.

Sitting amidst her parents, Victoria's phone beeped, an anonymous message saying ‘Two days left to be my wife’. Wanting to reply but it was a no reply message and seriously wondering who would have sent it because Peter Saint has little time to be sending that even though he is ruthless and cold in behavior.

Mr. Langford reached for his medication.

His trembling hand fell short. Dad… let me help you, Victoria said. Later, Victoria's mum came inside with her heart heavy as it has usually been with her family but not at the start.

She said how would you have pictured yourself in marriage with this so -called husband who is so ruthless and devastated as we all know.

Victoria said "It's a sacrifice worth making.”Mum, no need to stress yourself, I will be leaving in two days time…. Victoria's dad cut in two days …..?, she said yes, it's indicated in the agreement I signed to move into his house three days after it's been signed.

“Victoria's dad” worrying and shivering as if the coldness in a fridge has been brought upon him. Never for once imagining that his own daughter will be in a marriage where she never feels to be but situation warrants and to save their family once again.

‘Remember the doctor said you need enough rest’ Victoria said… All I am doing is to bring back the fortune of the LANGFORD’S family.

Dressed with an intention, going out as usual to bring something back into the home that will benefit the family. All her life, she is used to working. She unexpectedly ran into her ex-boyfriend and remembered all he had done, she walked past him and his friends laughed as she walked past.

Across her way to a cool pub bar, she went to ease off the stress by drinking some glasses of beer. ‘the bill is 60$’, the waitress said. Putting her hands in her small purse but was unable to bring out an amount. Bitterness settled deep in her chest as she was unable to afford that small amount of money, “I that have been controlling millions of dollars, now was unable to afford this”. It shows the level of how the suffering stage has reached. Without hesitation, the waitress handed over the mop to her and she began to mop in place of the beer she was unable to avoid.

“Looking exhausted and at the edge of giving up,” Victoria entered the living room and met her parents sitting down. How did your day go? said Victoria's mum. It was hectic, she replied, not wanting to go deep about how her ex boyfriend humiliated her and how she was unable to afford a small amount of bills. Is there anything you would like to discuss?Victoria's mum said… Victoria, without any intention to reply to her, went straight into her bedroom to gather some of her stuff as she prepared for her contract marriage that will begin in two days' time.

She laid on her bed, in deep thought still wondering why Peter Saint offered her a five years contract marriage that her father had asked her before… while in thought, she slept off.

Music clattering… ‘Peter Saint,’ drinking.. It happens to be that he is in one of the most expensive clubs in the city. Drank to stupor. When getting back to his mansion, Peter Saint's personal assistant tried to lure words from him. What are your hidden motives towards Victoria Langford, as this is not what we planned towards us earlier.

Peter Saint said ‘My hidden motion towards her is……’ he started feeling dizzy and slept off with words cutting off his mouth. Peter Saint's personal assistant was so curious and thought he would speak, wanting to give a report to an unidentified being he had been talking to.

The door slammed as Victoria's mum and dad went to see the doctor for his recent health status checkup, “it happens that a huge amount of money is seriously needed for surgeries to gain back his health status..” Victoria stretches forth her arms to support her mum in helping her dad to sit saying what's his health condition now. We need a huge amount of money for surgeries to help stabilize your fathers health condition, Victoria's mum said. The news shattered what little hope Victoria had left and nothing is stopping her from entering into the marriage contract she has signed and that will begin in a day time.

A message beeped through her phone again, saying ‘In a day time, a driver will come to pick you up’. This clearly shows that the message was coming from Peter Saint's personal assistant as it was seen in the text best regards…

Her phone beeped again with some images. Victoria opened the first photo. The color drained from her face. "No..." she whispered. Her trembling fingers moved to the next image. Wh

at she saw made her blood run cold.
