Daine's mouth hung open for a moment before she blinked. “Eva left the city on purpose because she was threatened not to give her statement to the police?” Daine asked, even though she already had the answer to her question. “According to the observation we had before, that could be the possible reason.” Amy's voice was firm and calm. Daine took a deep breath. “I need to tell her parents now. Do you know which city she went to?” she inquired. Amy paused for a while, and Daine waited impatiently. “We don't know where she went off too, but I'll try to find out. We'll get to it soon.” Daine was a bit disappointed, “Thank you, Amy. I'll be expecting your feedback soon.” “Daine!’ Amy called, preventing her from ending the call. “Yes?” She paused. “We might have something on Norman Darlington regarding Eva's kidnapping.” She announced. “Really?” Daine's eyes lit up.“Yes. We haven't really gotten a real hold on concrete evidence yet, but I'll let you know when we have full details
“Did you watch the footage I sent to you last night?” Daine said into the phone. “I had to do it behind Eleanor’s back, I hope she hasn't found out yet.” She was sitting on the bed in her bedroom, having a phone call. “I didn't really see anything in it, but I requested a copy because you asked me to.” She added. A feminine voice came in from the speaker of the phone. “Daine, I watched it several times last night, and I think it's not just trauma of the hospital, something actually happened to her while she was in the changing room, but it wasn't physical.” Daine's face scrunched up in confusion, “What do you mean?” “Think about it. She was very calm till she went into the hospital room, even while she was alone after the doctor left, she was still calm,” She pointed out. “Yeah,” Daine agreed. “So Amy, what are you trying to say? What did you notice?” “What I'm saying is, if you watch the video attentively, you would notice how she rushed out of the dressing room, trembling. Sh
“What are you talking about, Shawn? Ava's voice sounded like she was being teased. “Eva isn't home. She said she was spending the night at your place, or didn't she?” she asked. Shawn felt the knot twisting in his stomach. “Yes she did.” He paced the room, scratching the back of his head. “But the problem is, I can't find her anywhere, and the security said she left very early this morning, and I'm about to freak out, Ava.” Shawn was getting tensed with fear. “Hold on, Shawn.” Ava's tone changed. “What do you mean you can't find Eva? She left your place without telling you anything? Why?” “If I knew, Ava; if I had the slightest answers to your questions, I wouldn't be standing here clueless and calling you.” Shawn let out, sounding frustrated. “Did you guys fight?” “Of course not. We were perfectly fine last night. So, I have no idea why she would do that.” His voice cracked. Ava felt the pain in Shawn's voice. “Calm down, Shawn. She would definitely have a good reason for th
Shawn groaned slightly and stirred on his bed as the morning sun penetrated through the curtains. He flung his hands to the other side of the bed and was caught by surprise.He moved his hand to feel it properly as he opened his eyes. It was empty. “Where did she go?” He groaned. He sat up and pushed his ruffled hair back, “Eva?” He called out, guessing she might be in the bathroom. There was silence, no response. His stomach growled as he got out of bed and walked towards the bathroom; He remembered that they ended up sleeping without having dinner last. He opened the bathroom and glanced around, “Eva?” He called again, but she wasn’t there. ‘She's probably downstairs because she's hungry’ He chuckled as he remembered that she'll get hungry quickly, now that she's pregnant. He brushed his teeth and washed his face before walking back into the room;Shawn's eyes scanned the room, and he realised that his clothes were still scattered on the floor, but Eva's were nowhere to be
Eva stopped in front of Shawn's bedroom door. She was a bit exhausted from running up the stairs. She heard Shawn coming right behind her. She pushed the door open and went in. “Just this once,” she whispered, taking a deep breath to ease her nervousness. “Eva?”Shawn called as he pushed the door open. He closed the door behind him as he sighted her standing behind the door. Eva came to stand in front of him, trapping him against the door, “Why don't we continue from where we left off,” she bit her lips seductively, snaking her hands to wrap them around his neck. Shawn's eyes searched hers for a brief seconds before pulling her by her waist, “You've gotten naughtier,” he pinched her nose. She leaned towards his ears and whispered, “I learnt it from you,” her fingers traced his jaw lines down to his collarbone. Shawn got turned on by her teasing movements. He spun them and pinned her to the wall beside them. Eva chuckled, pulling him closer till their lips were barely apart, b
Shawn and Eva sat on the sitting room couch, watching a TV show. They had snacks scattered on the centre table; Shwan’s legs were stretched on a stool with one arm wrapped around Eva, who was snuggling him with a bag of popcorn in hand. She fed herself and also Shawn as they watched the movie. “Mr Darlington, Miss Eva,” the housekeeper interrupted them. “I'm sorry to disturb you,” she said quickly as they turned their heads to her, “but I want to ask what you'd like to have for dinner?” Eva sat up immediately and dropped the almost empty bag of popcorn, “Don’t worry, Madam Tess, I'll make dinner.” Shawn's brow shot up, “You want to make dinner?” “Miss Eva, you shouldn’t stress yourself. Just let me do it.” Madam Tess tried to persuade her. “Yeah, Eva, just tell her what you want.” Shawn added. “No,” Eva pressed. “I'm fine, I can do it. Besides, it's been a while since I cooked since you tasted my cooking.” She turned to Shawn with puppy eyes. “Don't you miss it?” She pouted
