LOGINLucy pov(Jonathan's daughter): We were getting close to my house, maybe a block away, when one of the cars stopped and another man came out. He carried me out of the car, took me to the first car, and drove me back home, while the other car went in the opposite direction. When I got out of the car, my mother was the one who ran to me and hugged me tightly. "Oh Lucy, I am so sorry, this is all my fault for being careless. When you told me about that man, I would have kept you at home," my mother said, her voice shaking as she held me close. I hugged her back. How could she know that I would have gotten kidnapped? "Mommy,I was so scared," I whispered softly, clinging to her. My mother took me inside, and three of the men who were in the car followed us in. About twenty minutes later, the police came. They took my statement, but they could not find the person who kidnapped me. Even though I told them about the house, they said they went there and didn’t see anybody. It was as
Lucy POV (Stella’s daughter):Mommy always tells me not to talk to strangers, and whenever a stranger wants to approach me, I should yell out for help so people can help me. But I do not know how the man came into our school, and before I could yell out for help, I was already feeling dizzy because he covered my mouth with a handkerchief. The next thing, I woke up in an abandoned building, and I was lying on the floor.When I woke up, he gave me food and water to eat and left to make a call.I could tell that he was angry on the phone, and he was telling somebody to kill himself if he wanted me back. But I also know that mommy told me that whenever someone takes me somewhere strange, I should find a way to escape and not wait for somebody to save me.The only thing that made me happy was that he did not tie up my hands because I was still a little kid, who would think that I could successfully escape here? I waited until he sat down on the chair.“Do you know who your father is?” he a
Jonathan pov It took me long years before I could finally say I had found Stella. I have not seen her, but I know where she is now. She has already sent me the address, so I was going to make some arrangements to get to her so that I can understand what is going on. I had been called about 40 minutes ago, and the person told me that he had my daughter and I should kill myself if I wanted to ensure her safety. I just entered the call because as far as I know, I have no child. So for someone to be telling me to kill myself or my child will be the one who bears that, it was something that I did not understand. But now it all makes sense, the reason why Stella left four years ago and why she didn't even come back. I called Luke to my office and informed him about the situation. “Mrs Stella had your daughter, that was why she left,” he told me, leaning forward slightly as he tried to make me understand the situation, and I knew that was confirmation. Well, I do not blame her fo
Stella povAfter telling Jonathan about his daughter, he was quiet for about five minutes. I had to pull the phone away from my ear to make sure he was actually there, and he was still on the line, he just was not saying anything. Even when I called out to him, he said nothing to me."You ran away because you were pregnant?" he asked all of a sudden, his voice low."Yes," I replied softly, gripping the phone tightly."There was somebody that called me and said something about my daughter," he said and paused. "And I just ended the call, I did not think much about it.""So the person was telling the truth?" he asked."Yes," I confirmed, nodding even though he could not see me."Please call him back and ask him what he wants," I said quickly, my voice trembling. "I don't know what he wants from you, but he's after you, and he thought that my daughter had some involvement with you because you were looking for me. Please just tell him that my daughter has no involvement in this, get my d
Stella povI knew that no matter how much I wanted and tried to hide away from Jonathan and the life that I used to live, it would come back knocking one day. So I was not surprised that the person who decided to kidnap my daughter was someone involved with Jonathan.Now I cannot go to the police with this, because what am I going to say? My husband is involved in the mafia, and they took my daughter away to threaten him, all to get something from him? I have already told everybody that my husband is dead. How am I going to continue this lie? What am I going to do?"Well, if Jonathan refuses to listen to my request and does not fulfill my demand, then your daughter will be gone, because I have suffered a great loss because of Jonathan. I cannot let it go until he gives me what I want." The kidnapped imformed me."Do not worry, I will call him to ask him for what I want. If he refuses, then you cannot blame me for being cruel," he told me coldly, and he ended the call immediately.I
Stella povI was currently in the café, typing on my laptop, working on my part-time job. That was when my phone on the coffee table began ringing, and I took the phone and answered the call."Mrs. Stella, please start coming to the school immediately. We have something important to discuss with you," I heard my daughter's teacher say, her voice urgent.I wondered what she wanted to discuss with me. She did not tell me in the morning because I always take my daughter to school by myself, and I bring her back home by myself. I do not send my cleaner or my babysitter. I always go by myself."Is something wrong?" I asked her, tightening my grip on the phone as I stood up, because with the way she was talking, there was definitely something wrong, but she did not want to tell me, and it made me get a bit worried. I hoped nothing happened to my daughter."Nothing happened, but your presence is needed in the school immediately. Please start coming," she told me quickly, avoiding details, an

Stella povJonathan decided to follow us back home, and after Grandma was settled down, he went to his room. When he was heading there, he told me something that made me pause in my steps.“Now Grandma is going to stay here for two months. You should move into my room. I don’t want her to ask why w
