SARAH

I had a lot to do.

After ST Atelier fashion event, I got lots of recommendations and business partners.

It was difficult for me to ignore that I saw Caleb at my event and he interacted with my son. I expected him to bring up how our relationship crashed but he didn’t. Could it be he was pompous or he didn’t feel the need too.

I called Josh and appreciated him for all he has done for me. He recommended me to Mr. Michael and I will be working with a team on a huge project. Michael attended ST Atelier event and was impressed by all the designs and latest collections. It was a massive deal.

With that I mean a project with my pay running into six digits.

I sat beside Aunt Olivia as we watched the television. With the way she glanced at me at intervals, I knew she had a lot to say. I remained quiet as I waited for her to speak.

“What if Nelly starts asking about his father?” She asked calmly.

“He won't,” I mumbled.

“Are you sure?” She asked with a concerned look. “Didn’t you see the

    CALEB“You would have been dead if not for the urgent intervention of the doctors.” Silas said with a deep tone but fear was etched on his face.I had just regained consciousness and felt better. I could see that he was scared to lose me.It's a good thing that I am alive, I will get to the root of all this and punish the culprit.However, I was more concerned about the criminal.“Did the criminal also survive?” I ask.“No!” He replied bluntly. “You need to throw a party because you survived.”I sighed in disappointment. If only the criminal told me who he was to Laura.“Oh no!” I muttered bitterly.I tried to raise my head when Silas suddenly screamed. “Don't.”“What's wrong?” I asked in confusion.“You can't move your neck freely for the next couple of months. You will be under close watch.” Silas recounted all the doctor told him when I was asleep.“I need to recover fast.” I said, touching my neck brace.Silas was about to say something when my phone suddenly rang. To my surprise,

    CALEBThe manager dialed a number and instructed that the person should be in his office immediately.Soon, a man clad in a paramilitary dress was present in the manager's office.The man was Johnny, the head of the security unit.After exchanging pleasantries, the manager said, “Mr. Haley is searching for someone who is likely present within this vicinity.”“Do you have a picture of what the person looks like?” Johnny asked.“Here you go,” Silas and I said at the same. Pointing our phones to Johnny.Johnny smiled and collected my phone while Silas held his own back.“This man again?” Jonny screamed.It left all of us confused. I was curious to hear him talk about the man.“What do you know about the man? Have you met him before?” I asked as I received my phone.“This man is a criminal. I have seen him here several times. However, a few days ago he was caught burglarizing a house but he escaped. Since then, we've been searching for him.” Johnny said, wearing a disappointed look.“I se

    “They will be safe. I will go after the gangster and put him where he belongs. Laura will only find out when I have exposed her. I won’t put up any act that will make her suspect.” I pouted.“We have to be careful. We also have to strategize perfectly to be victorious in this battle.” Silas whispered.I finished up the work I had on my desk while Silas listened to music.“Let's go to your house.” I said and he stared at me.He must have been surprised that we were leaving the office earlier than usual.I had to draw out a plan for this mission and his house was the best place for it.We arrived at Silas' residence.“Do you care for a drink?” Silas asked the moment I sat on the couch.“Water is perfect.” I replied.I pulled out a pen and a piece of paper from my bag.I wrote down all the information about the gangster. The only cause for alarm was that even the database didn't reveal the name of the person.That isn't something to worry about. With the phone number, we can find the per

    CALEB Silas briefed me about some latest developments including a zoom meeting with Sarah.I happily joined the meeting when it was time. After the meeting, I left the office without informing anyone.I decided to have a drink because I couldn't get Sarah off my mind. I want to give my heart what it desires by doing all it takes to send Laura out of my life.As I walked into a bar, I met Stanley.“Hey man, come and join me.” He said to me and I happily sat beside him.The waiter walked up to me and took my order.Almost immediately, the waiter returned and Stanley insisted that he was going to pay for my drink.I was about to take a sip when my phone rang. It was a call from Silas.Can't Silas know when I want to be alone? “Why are you calling me?” I complained but Silas wasn't moved by it.“How dare you leave the office without informing me?” He queried.Do I have to remind him that I was his boss?I cleared my throat. “Stop missing me. I don't have to inform you about my movemen

    SARAH “We can go now. He must be worried that you haven’t come to pick him. It has stopped raining.” Josh said to me.We were working on a project together so I decided we should stop by the house to pick an important document before going to pick Nelly from school. Lo, it started raining. We had no choice than to wait till after the rain cox, I believed Nelly was safe.Immediately I opened the door, I was shocked to see Caleb carrying Nelly in his arms. I was at a loss for words. “Caleb and Nelly?” I heard Josh whisper.I threw a lot of questions at Caleb and he explained how he came across Nelly. Seeing them together only left me worried.I forcefully pulled Nelly from Caleb’s arms and asked him to leave. He was adamant but Josh also seconded my words.Holding Nelly, I returned into the house with Josh following closely.Nelly had a happy expression and the only person behind it was Caleb. I instructed him to run to his room while I paced restlessly in the sitting room.I was not

    CALEB“Uncle, who was that man? Is he Nelly’s father? That woman is his mother, I have seen her several times at school” She said but I cleared my throat and started the car.“He is not Nelly’s father. Keep quiet.” I muttered.She looked at me via the rear mirror but I ignored her. I knew my words had nothing on her, she was still going to talk.“Why are you angry? It is just a question that needs a simple response.” Elena spoke confidently in the car.“If there is anything going on, why don’t you share it with me. A problem shared is half solved.” He muttered and I had to glance at her face. This girl was too wise for her age, she was just six for crying out loud!“There is no problem.” I managed to say. She touched my shoulder and said.“I feel there is a connection between you and Nelly that I can’t explain. I don’t believe that you don’t have a problem.” He went on and guilt of lying filled my mind.“Let me be, Elena. I have a lot on my mind, forget about this topic. She shrugged
