I’m Dedicated To You

“Did you know me, Mr. Hale?” I asked because with all this that has happened and the way he keeps helping me, I don’t think he was just a kind man with no other intention.

“Of course, I knew you,” he says and I looked at him eagerly for him to continue”who doesn’t know the famous Georgina Grey” he added and I knew he just played me.

“Mr. Hale, I am serious here. I know everyone in the country knows me but I am asking you particularly if you know from anywhere else except the screen,” I asked.

“You are a popular actress we might have met at a gala before,” he says and I know that’s not the truth.

“Why do I feel like you know me well? I also felt like I have kinda met you before,” I say, squinting my eyes.

“Then trouble your memory,” he says and I saw his expression turn sad but it was gone again and it makes me think that I didn’t even notice it.

“You should take your drugs now,” he said changing the topic I scrunch my nose just at the thought of taking drugs and I think Bradley noticed it.

“You don’t like taking drugs,” he asked and I nodded my head excitedly. Maybe he will tell me to just sleep and not take the throat-sticking pills.

“So, the reason you have a fever is that you didn’t even take your drugs last night,” he asked and I realized I just sold myself out. When I noticed he wanted to start scolding I quickly took the pills from him and swallowed them, twisting my face.

“I took it already, I think it’s fine now,” I asked, and nodded his head. I don’t if it’s because of the drugs I just took I started feeling drowsy and my eyelid started getting heavy and I can’t help but give in to the beauty sleep that is drawing me in but before I completely fell unconscious I felt someone tucking me in and also gave me a peck on my forehead but that was all I feel before I fell completely unconscious.

BRADLEY’S POV

I walked out of her room after glancing at her one more time. I still can’t believe that she is here with me after so many years. I walked into my study room to complete some of my work and I noticed I already got an email. Then when I wanted to check it, a call came into my phone and I picked it up.

“Speak up, don’t waste my time,” I said coldly.

“Why did you have to be so cold towards me after all the help I have rendered to you,” the person on the other side of the phone says, sounding hurt.

“There’s only one person that I can be warm to and you are not her, so cut the crap,” I say and I can hear him grumble.

“I want to tell you that in the assignment you gave me I already finished it and I sent it to your email but the Tukes group has a lot of dirty business going on for them”.

“What do you mean,” Bradley says opening the mail sent to his email.

“They are trashy, I mean they are involved in all kinds of dirty businesses, human trafficking, prostitution, drugs, and many more”.

“Human trafficking too?” I asked.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Yes and I know that’s a ticking bomb that is going to destroy them because I know for sure that you are not going to let them go with that”.

“Ben, you are going to help me with something”.

“What another assignment” Ben grumbles from the other side of the phone.

“I am going to double your pay”.”His boss is so generous today maybe it’s because Mrs. Hale is with you, “Ben says jokingly but that joke gets him something nice from his boss.

“Tell the HR to increase your bonus this month and also change your car,” Bradley says with a smile on his lips that whoever witnessed this scene will be so shocked but Gina has already witnessed so much.

“Boss… boss .. are you firing me, “Ben asked, not believing what he did just now before he suddenly realized what he said to warrant him so many bonuses.

“No,” Bradley replies.

“Then I think I will be hanging up now so you will have time to take care of Mrs. Hale,” Ben says excitedly.

I open the files Ben sent and I can’t help but smirk wickedly when I see all sorts of dirty things the Tukes family are involved in ranging from human trafficking, organ trafficking, prostitution, drugs, and illegal casinos.

I kept skipping through the files and I noticed that they are using the children they kidnapped for a drug testing experiment and that even got me madder.

“Why are you making it so easy to destroy you,” I say with a dangerous glint in my eyes. After I looked through all of the files I decided to set some traps for the Tukes family before ruining them entirely.

I stayed in the study room for some time working on different things but I was disturbed by the sound of my phone.

“Hello,” I say coldly, removing my glasses and rubbing my eyes.

“Good afternoon sir there are some women here asking to see you” I heard the security man greet me and I checked my wristwatch to check for the time and it was past 12 already.

“What are their names?”.

“Olivia and Victoria”.

“Let them in, “I say. I leave the study room for the living room to receive Georgina’s friends.

“Good afternoon Mr. Hale”I heard Olivia greet and Victoria just bowed, acknowledging Bradley.

“Afternoon Miss Olivia”.

“You know my name”Olivia asked like a fan girl being acknowledged by her favorite artist.

“Yeah, aren’t you Georgina’s friends,” I asked, pointing at them.

“Yes, we are,” Victoria replies. “Thank you for accommodating Gina we appreciate it”

“No, the pleasure is all mine”.

“Why is the pleasure yours?” Olivia teased.

“Mr. Hale, where is Gina?” Victoria asked, cutting Olivia off from her tease.

“She is in her room recovering,” I told them.

“Can we see her? We will be quiet so as not to wake her u.? “Victoria asked.?

“But I thought you already recovered, “Olivia asked.

“She caught a fever this morning, so she is recovering now.” The girls were surprised that they didn’t even watch their tongues.

“Watch, were you thinking that you can’t even call us to inform us about it?” Victoria scolded and Olivia joined in.

“Did you want to wait till she goes into a coma before telling us”?

“Mr. Hale is everything fine I heard some voices,” Peller says and that’s when the realization sets in for the girls and they hope Bradley won’t take offense to it.

“These are Georgina’s friends”.

“Hi, ma’am my name is Olivia Grey”.

“I am Victoria Grey”.

“You are friends or sisters,” Peller says wondering why they have the same surnames.

“We grew up in the same orphanage and coincidentally we were found at the same time, so we decided to use the same surnames,” Olivia explained, sensing Peller’s confusion.

“Miss Peller can you please take Georgina’s friends to her room,” I say, excusing myself from my study because I don’t think I can be in the company of those girls, especially Olivia, that girl is a ticking bomb with her mouth.

“Wow this house is so huge”I heard the Olivia girl say and I can’t help but get amused by how comported she acted in front of me but was busy ogling over the house when I left.

I entered my study room to finish my work.

GEORGINA’S POV

I heard different types of sounds and I couldn’t help but sluggishly open my eyes. I also wondered why I keep hearing voices in my room.

“You guys are here, “I said excitedly even though it’s sluggish when I saw my friends but what Olivia said next shocked me.

“Gina seduces Mr. Hale”…
