She opened her eyes and looked around. She was tied to a chair. The first question that came to her mind was where she was. Seeing that she was tied, she concluded that Justin must have caught up with her. She got scared that Justin must have caught up with her." See who finally came around!" A goon walked in.She looked at him. She was sure he wasn't one of Justin's men. if he wasn't one of Justin's men, then who was he and how did she end up here? She had a lot of questions in her head but she couldn't ask anyone.Suddenly, James walked in. " You fool. I asked for you to come check if she'd regained consciousness but here you are, standing like the fool you are" James yelled.The thug apologized and left the room." So, i see you've being messing with your husband?" He moved closer to her.She raised a questioning brow, she and Alex had being cool of lately. They'd not gotten into any sort of fights so what was the thug talking about? She was confused." I'm sure you must wondering
" aaaaaaaaaaaaah" she shrieked in pain. She looked around and saw that no one was watching so she took to her heels. She was going to make Alex pay for what he had done to her.The thug got into the room. He looked and saw that the ropes were loosed, there was vomit on the floor and no one was in the chair." Boss!!" He called.James walked out of the bathroom, he'd just showered." Why'd you......" He couldn't complete his statement before he noticed that Ana was no longer in the chair." Where'd she go?" He screamed at the thug." I don't know sir, I got here and saw that she was gone" he said. He was about to start another sentence when he received a slap from James." You're all incompetent. Find her and bring her here. Dead or alive, I don't care!" He yelled and the thug ran out. He looked at the floor and was disgusted by the sight of the vomit. " I'll make sure to finish her" he said to himself and left.ALEX'S HOUSE......Alex was seen moving around the sitting room in circles
" boss, she's dead" James said over the phone and hung up.Alex was shocked, she was what? He hoped it wasn't what he was thinking. She couldn't be dead, what would he tell his mum? He felt fear envelope his entire being.He called James but got no response." This damn fool" he cursed. " Who does he think he is?" He called again." Boss!!" James answered." Tell me I didn't hear you properly" " You did sir. She's dead, she fell off a cliff and died in the river" James explained.Alex did not know what to feel. Was he to feel happy that she was now gone or feel sad that his mum was never going to forgive him if she learnt that he was responsible for her death " Where's her body?" He managed to ask." In the river, I think it has being washed away" " Which river?"" Dinero river sir"" I'll be there in two hours" Alex said and hung up.Dinero was a far away village. Not really a village but it was called a village due to its low civilization rate. Alex felt hot tears fall on his che
A MONTH LATER...... it's been a month since Ana's supposed demise, everything had gone back to the way it was. Although Mrs Hamilton still missed her, she kept her feelings hidden. All the helpers excluding Veronica and Sonya resigned from their respective duties and Alex had them killed immediately they resigned because he felt they defied him. The martinis got to know of Justin's death but they didn't act due to the fact that Justin had a hand in Ana's death.************************************************In a small hut a woman is seen cooking with her back facing the entrance, she had dark long hair, hair as dark as that of the late Anastasia Hamilton. A middle aged woman walks in." Why do you keep helping me? How do you think I'll cope when you leave especially now that you're making me lazy?" She asks." Let the time for me draw near. till then, I'll keep doing what I think is good" the dark haired woman replied and flipped her hair." If you say so. I'm
" are you alright now?" Margaret asked Ana, concern written all over her face.Ana nods yes, showing she's fine. Margaret looks at her. " I think you should go see a doctor" she suggests." No I can't Meg. We don't have enough money to feed on let alone go see a doctor" Ana said.Meg gave her a reassuring smile. " It doesn't matter because I already called the doctor here" she said and signalled at Ana to look at the door as a woman walked in." You called the doctor?" Ana whispered.Meg nods in affirmation. " You're gonna have to be fine if you're gonna take revenge on your husband" Meg said and smiled. Ana realized she was right. If she was going to get revenge on Alex, she had to be fine. Her thoughts travelled to how Meg had saved her that very day.Yes! If not for Meg, she'd have drowned in the water the day she fell." Can I examine you?" The doctor asked.Ana nods and the doctor examines her. She feels her pulse, her heart beat, her eyes and boobs. She smiles, " congratulation
He panicked, was that really his wife he saw out there? He took a cup of water and was about to drink it when he realized that it was now blood instead." Aaaaaaaaaaaaah" he screamed and ran out of the room to his mother's room." Mum, mum, please open up, ghost" Alex knocked loudly but got no response." You can't run from me Alex, you can't" Ana's ghost told Alex as he shrieked in fear. He continued to bang his mother's door and Ana started moving closer. He was losing it, she took out a knife from the white garment she was wearing and started moving towards Alex. He started to beg as he fell to his knees. She shook her head and laughed maniacally. Immediately she was close enough to him, he passed out. Alex rolled on the bed, yelling" please don't kill me Ana, please don't" he jumped out of the bed. He sighed, it was just a dream. He looked out of his window, no one was there. He looked at his cup and jug, no stains of blood. What a terrible dream.He sighed and went b
It was after some minutes when Sonya wanted to clean Alex's room that she realized he was unconscious. She splashed him some water, causing him to regain consciousness. He got out of the bathroom, half naked( he was tying a towel) to his bedroom. He chased Sonya out of his room. He sat on the bed and began to think. He wouldn't let Ana's ghost turn him to a mad man, he'd have to get protection for himself. Bodyguards!! He agreed. He spoke to an organization and four able bodied men were brought to his service. Two for the day and two for the night.He smiled to himself, " I beat you to it Ana"THAT NIGHT.....Alex went to bed feeling relaxed, he thought that since he had guards with him, Ana's ghost wouldn't be able to hurt him. The bodyguards decided to go have some food so they left.Alex began to hear strange voices. He looked around but saw no one so he ignored it. He was about to back to bed when he received a phone call from an unknown number.He picked up the cal
SIX MONTHS LATER....It's being six months since Alex was exposed. Due to his mother's presence in the house, he made sure to take care of Ana even though it was against his will.It was quite surprising that even after six months of being so close to Ana, he still didn't fall in love with her and it took only a few days for Justin to fall head over hills in love with her. Ana wanted a girl but Alex wanted a boy. He wanted someone who he could train to be like him, someone who'll have no mercy on those who defied his orders, someone who'd take over his business after he came of age and according to him, a girl could do none of those." I'm telling you Alex, a girl will be better. She'll be cute, beautiful, nice, helpful and she'll make a wonderful chef" Ana said on one of her conversations with Alex.She thought he'd smile at this but she received a slap instead." Let this be last time I hear you mention having a girl child. Girls are nothing but a liability, give me someone who
