Se connecterSARAHI couldn’t explain how everything happened so fast. I didn’t know when tears found his way out of my ears. It was a lot for me to deal with; Laura followed me to a strange land to harm me.“Stop crying, Sarah. I understand how you feel but I promise you that Laura will be punished if she is found guilty.” Silas said to me softly.,“If she is guilty?” I shook my head in disapproval because I didn't like his conditional statement because it is glaring that she was behind it. “We need evidence, without it, it means we are accusing her falsely. I know she can do it but how do we apprehend her in the act?” He explained and I understood.He also informed me that Caleb had asked for the CCTV footage of all that happened at the workshop today but it didn’t show any image of some putting drugs into a bottle of water.I suspected that whoever did the job must be aware of the cameras around. Criminals don’t easily give room for flaws.Where could she have drugged my water without my notic
CALEBI widened my eyes when I saw Sarah lying on the floor. I was confused and scared.“Sarah! Sarah, look at me.” I said with a fearful tone but got no response.I invited her to the event, how then do I explain the sudden event to aunt Olivia, Nelly and even Josh. I heaved in fear; they all would be anticipating our return.Silas quickly called the hospital emergency line and they arrived few minutes after the call.I watched them put Sarah on a wheel stretcher and took her to the ambulance. I picked her bag and wanted to follow them in the ambulance but they refused. Silas and I had to follow after the ambulance using a taxi.I was disturbed and with the blaring sound of the ambulance, I gripped her bag hard, hoping she survives.I couldn’t account for Laura’s sudden disappearance. Inasmuch she wasn’t there when Sarah fell and went unconscious, I blamed her.All of Silas’ attempt to calm me down at the hospital didn’t work. I watched the doctor and nurses enter into her ward and I
I arched my brow in awe. They all fixed their attention on me, expecting my response. Toiletries are personal stuff! Even if I want to share my stuff with someone, then it shouldn’t be Laura. “Caleb, I don’t like to share my toiletries. I will suggest that you and your lover visit the mall to get what she needs.” I uttered, avoided mentioning her name cox it irritated me. Laura quickly interfered, “It is late, the malls would be closed by now. Try to understand, Sarah.” “What exactly do you want? A lot of things make up toiletries.” I said to her angrily. “It’s a female thing and I am shy to mention it in their presence.” She said, pointing towards Caleb and Silas. “Sarah, take care of yourself. We’ll excuse you guys now.” Caleb uttered and I noticed the uneasiness in his voice. He and his friends left, leaving me with my enemy. I knew this wasn’t going to end well. “Let me pick what I need.” Laura took a step towards my room. I blocked her path; I avoided her since she arri
SARAH“Forgive my act.” He whispered as he moved his hands and lips away.I couldn’t say a word; my body wanted more of him but I couldn’t bring myself to say it. I smiled and moved a bit to maintain a distance between us.“Who do you suspect to be behind all these problems?” I asked, trying to divert my mind.“I can’t say but I feel the person is monitoring our moves and has agents on his or her side. I will always be there for you; you have nothing to fear” He replied and grabbed my hand. “I promise the person will be exposed soon.”It is not just me but Nelly and Aunt Olivia. I can’t bear to see them get hurt, they have to be protected at all cost.“Let’s go to bed now, tomorrow is another day. I hope soon we have a life free of fear and chaos,” I quickly said before I received another kiss that might lead to another nine months journey.“Sleep well dear, I look forward to having more of this moment with you.” Caleb said with a wink and it made me smile.Caleb had more to say but I
SARAH‘Caleb is worried about you. Where are you? I received a call from him, please talk to him as fast as possible.’It was a message from aunt Olivia. He reached out to her because he knows she has a soft spot for him and will cajole me to dance to his tone.‘Alright, aunt.’ I replied to the message with a heavy heart. I don’t want to tell her that the man she is supporting is the man behind my worries. I am confused; I fell flat on the bed.Just then, I heard a voice outside the door.“Sarah, come out. Let’s talk.”I recognized the voice; it was that of Silas. What did he want to talk about? Caleb must have sent him. I moved closer to the door.“Speak, I can hear you.” I uttered softly.“The discussion has to be in person,” he said.I opened the door only to be greeted by a smile from Silas and a sober look from Caleb. I knew that Caleb was at the door but he chose to be quiet.“You don’t have to talk to Caleb and I at the same time.” I complained.I turned to return to my room w
I went outside with Silas following behind me. I don’t know if the police were also paid not to disclose the destination of the criminal.Caleb owes me an explanation. Quickly, I called him. The call connected but he didn’t pick up. “Your friend is behind it all!” I said with a teary voice but he looked at me confusedly.“What are you talking about?” He asked with soft tone.“The man who placed the missing document in my bag works for Caleb. Caleb is behind it all.” I spilled it out painfully.Silas widened his eyes and took a step backward.“That is not possible.” He speaks confidently.I didn’t expect him to believe instantly. It was a hard pill for me to swallow too. I witnessed it all. The criminal wasn’t scared to confront Caleb. I recounted everything to Silas but his facial expression showed that he doubted my words. “Did Caleb go this far just for him to prove to be my hero?” I whispered but it was audible for Silas to hear.“I believe you know what you are saying but I als
SARAH Silas and two middle aged men were before us. I forced myself out of Caleb’s embrace. I felt embarrassed but Caleb wore a smile. Silas also returned the gesture but the other men present remained indifferent. “I expected your arrival yesterday.” Caleb said. “We are so sorry Mr. Hilton, due
Early the next morning, I woke up early to prepare breakfast for Nelly. When I was ready to leave the house, he was still asleep so I dropped a note under his pillow apologizing and also stating that I had to be at the office early. I told his nanny to notify him that I was the one that made his b
SARAHI received a call from Aunt Olivia. I cleared my throat and greeted her.“You don’t have to act strong. I heard about the news.” She says thoughtfully.“Aunt Olivia, it is a lot for me to handle.” I muttered.“I understand but take it easy on yourself. You need to rest so that you can think b
Caleb insisted that he was going to wait in my office till the meeting was over. Quickly, I went to the board room.The board members were all seated. While some frowned, otherwise gave a sober look. It was an impromptu meeting and to be honest I wondered what the urgency was about.We exchanged pl
