A VISIT TO SAKUZI
Jordan’s POV
Everything was supposed to be perfect , I had already laid out the plans.
When Anita stands up from her seat, the whole light in the ballroom would go off while two different spotlights would be fixed on the both of us.
Costing a halo on her, the spotlight would light and guide her path while rose petals would begin to fall from above.
The stage would lit up with romantic lights while the large projector screen would feature pictures of our time together she hadn’t realized I’ve been talking.
She would walk up to me with a smile looking like a Romanian goddess sent to earth by mistake and I would repeat my question.
‘’Would you do me the honour of being my wife Tigress’’
Then would open the red engagement ring box, exposing a rose gold ring featuring a stunning round center diamond flanked by stunning pear diamonds.
The moment she says. ’’Yes’’ to my question , I would slide the ring into her finger and kiss her briefly before carrying her off her feet and twirl her around while confetti falls on us, I hoped I didn’t over do the whole romantic gesture.
But, contrary to my expectation , my household enemies crushed all my plans and smithereens.
Everything happened too quickly to comprehend , one moment I was waiting on my knees for her answer and the next , I heard a reply m but the voice sounded different yet familiar.
Mystified , I hardly understood what was going on before I was yanked to my feet and forcefully kissed on the lips.
Perharps , it was the universe punishing me for my lustful ways .But one thing was clear, I might have seduced , but they were willing participants neither have I forced myself on them ,but right nw, someone was forcing herself on me.
I awoke from my reverie when applauses override the other, not to talk of camera flashes or the loud chattering from the curious reporters peppering me wih their questions.
Having realized what happened,I pushed Tina away with a momentum that almost made her slip and fall to the ground eliciting a shocked gasp from the crowd.
My eyes darted around and scanned the faces on the table Anita was missing.
My daughter was scowling at me, Ahemed shock his head while Emily flashed me a sympathetic gaze but I didn’t care about their opinion at the moment, finding Anita was all that mattered.
‘’Jordan’’Tina tried to call me but I gave her a look that could vapourize plastic on sight and stomped off the stage amidst confused whispers and gossips.
It wasn’t hard to figure out, my father had planned this out with Tina while Eden probably lended a helping hand.
My veins bulged while my fist clenched as anger rippled throughout my body.
But as angry as I was, I couldn’t do anything to them since this gala was being broadcast live. I would have to see to their deceit later.
I left the ballroom through the back entrance ,Anita was a sensitive person and wouldn’t leave through the main entrance in fear of repoerters capturing her embarrassing moment.
My heart hurt , she was probably curled up somewhere crying a bucket full of tears and it was my fault.
Thought I was secretive and meticulous in my plans but truth be told,I had a feeling the old man would try and disrupt my arrangements which was why I had a backup plan just in case ,but I never thought he would try this crazy approach.
‘’Anita’’ I screamed , scouring the floor like a madman on the loose while people gave me the looks, who cares.
I had a feeling she hadn’t left the hotel building and so, searched narrow and little spaces she could be hiding and bawling her eyes out,yet i came up with nothing.
‘’Jordan’’ someone called my name and I turned around . Judy ran to me breathless with his phone cradled in his pal; carefully .’’You need to see this’’ he said immediately and I snatched the cell phone from him
Playing the video , I saw Anita but she was walking through the underground garage and she was crying.
My hurt heart but I continued watching the video and was quite startled when the two men appeared out of nowhwere face covered and both dressed throughously in dark clothes.
One of them captured her from behind and pressed a white cloth against her nose .I bet it was drugged.
Though she struggled but the drug kicked in and sahe slunped into his arms.
Her abductor brought out a black bag,droppe it over her head and the both dumped her in the booth of their car parked at the side.
But what shocked me the most was when one of them brought out a aplacard with an inscription and raised it boldly for the camera to capture.
Eyes narrowed ,aia zoomed in and out on the video and saw ‘’sakuzi says hi’’written on the placard.
Then he joined his partner in the car and drove off and the video ende.
My jaw tickled as I faced jusy .’’Dint I ask you guys to strengthen security tonight, how did this happen?what the f**k were you guys doing?playing?fooling around?’’I roared and tossed the cell phone causing it to smash as it hit the floor.
