His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 226: The Unexpected Pull
The car rolled slowly through the tall iron gates of Sarah’s mansion, the headlights sweeping across the neatly trimmed lawn before the vehicle came to a gentle stop in the wide driveway.Sarah turned off the engine and sat still for a brief moment, exhaling deeply as if trying to release the weight of the day from her shoulders.Beside her, Aisha opened the door and stepped out first, stretching her arms slightly as the cool night breeze brushed against her skin.Sarah followed shortly after.Just as they began walking toward the entrance of the mansion, one of the security men stationed near the front porch stepped forward quickly.His posture straightened respectfully the moment he saw Sarah approaching.“Ma’am,” he said, nodding politely.Sarah paused and looked at him.“Yes?” she responded.“There’s someone waiting for you inside.”Sarah blinked.“A visitor?” she asked.The words sounded strange even to her own ears. She instinctively turned her head to glance at Aisha, and the g
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 225: The Closed Door
Sarah decided to stop by the hospital before taking Aisha home that night. The thought had come to her suddenly as she drove away from the police station.She wanted to see Melissa again, to make sure the girl was truly alright.The doctor had said she was fine, but something inside Sarah still felt unsettled. Perhaps it was simply the chaos of the day refusing to leave her mind.The hospital building came into view sooner than expected. The bright lights of the emergency entrance spilled across the parking lot, reflecting faintly on the polished hood of Sarah’s car as she pulled into a space.They stepped inside together.The reception area was quieter than it had been earlier. A nurse sat behind the counter, flipping through some paperwork while another staff member walked past pushing a trolley down the corridor.Sarah approached the desk immediately.“Good evening,” she said politely but with urgency in her voice. “I’m here to see Melissa. She was brought in earlier today.”The nu
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 224: Shadows Behind the Station
Sarah drove toward the police station with her mind set on one thing alone. The thought of Aisha spending even a single night behind those cold walls made her chest tighten.The image of the girl being dragged away earlier at the hospital had stayed with her all afternoon, replaying again and again in her head like a stubborn echo she couldn’t silence.No matter what the police said about protocols or procedures, Sarah had already decided that Aisha would not sleep in that place.Not after everything she had done for Melissa.The evening traffic crawled slowly, headlights stretching along the road like glowing beads. Sarah gripped the steering wheel firmly, her eyes fixed ahead while her thoughts ran in circles.She kept remembering the way Aisha had stood there earlier, hands raised in surrender, yet still carrying that strange confidence in her face.The girl had saved Melissa without thinking twice, and for that alone Sarah felt she owed her more than just words of gratitude.She f
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 223: A Debt No One Expected
Caleb’s expression remained firm, almost indifferent, even as Sarah’s anger burned openly before him.He folded his arms briefly, the gesture calm but unyielding, as though he had already made peace with whatever argument she was about to throw his way.“Mrs. Williams,” he began in a measured tone, his voice carrying the weight of authority that came with years in uniform. “These are protocols. You may not like them, but they exist for a reason.”Sarah stared at him, disbelief flashing across her face.“Protocols?” she repeated sharply. “That girl just carried my daughter here in her arms. She could have run away and left her somewhere, but she didn’t.”Caleb did not flinch.“And we are grateful she brought the child here,” he replied evenly. “But that doesn’t change the fact that we need answers. There are too many things surrounding this case that don’t add up.”Sarah opened her mouth to speak again, but Caleb lifted a hand slightly, cutting her off.“This won’t take long,” he conti
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 222: The Price of Courage
The sliding glass doors of the hospital burst open with force as Aisha staggered inside, clutching Melissa tightly in her arms.Her clothes were stained with dirt and streaked with dried blood, and the exhaustion in her eyes made it clear that whatever had happened before she arrived had pushed her far beyond her limits.Melissa lay limp against her chest, unconscious, her small face pale and streaked with dried tears.For a moment, the nurses at the reception desk simply stared, their expressions caught somewhere between shock and disbelief.One of them even gasped quietly, recognizing the child immediately. The atmosphere in the lobby shifted instantly from the usual calm routine of hospital life into something tense and urgent.Aisha walked straight toward them, her steps heavy but determined. Her breathing came in shallow bursts as she struggled to remain steady on her feet.“You people need to take her,” she said hoarsely, her voice rough from exhaustion. “Right now. If you waste
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 221: Collision of Fate
Before Sarah could even react to the tension that had suddenly gripped the room, Caleb had already turned sharply on his heel and started walking away from the security office with urgent strides.He pulled out his phone almost immediately and pressed it to his ear, making a call.Sarah watched him disappear around the corner with confusion and worry tangled across her face, but Caleb did not slow down for even a moment as he continued toward the hospital exit while still speaking into the phone.Within seconds he pushed through the hospital’s glass doors and stepped into the cool morning air outside.The parking lot was already beginning to fill with early visitors and staff arriving for their shifts, but Caleb paid no attention to any of it as he walked directly toward his car with hurried steps.His phone was still pressed tightly against his ear, his brow furrowed in concentration as he unlocked the vehicle and slid into the driver’s seat.The engine roared to life almost instantl
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 182: The Negotiation Table
For two days, Sarah did not step outside the hotel.The first morning after Magnus’ call, she had stood by the window of her suite and watched from behind the thick glass as sirens wailed faintly in the distance. News alerts flooded her phone, including security advisories, unconfirmed reports, pol

At exactly 10:02 a.m., Sarah sat at the round mahogany conference table inside the Edochie Group headquarters in Abuja. The room was spacious, modern, and tastefully furnished.From a distance, Abuja looked calm, orderly, almost peaceful.Inside the room, however, tension lingered beneath polished

“Daniel?” Sarah called, but her voice came out barely above a whisper. It trembled in a way she had never allowed in a boardroom, never allowed in negotiations, never allowed in front of anyone. “Where are you? Are you okay?”She pressed the phone harder against her ear as if that would somehow bri

At about 9:20 p.m., the security personnel stationed at the gate slid open the small viewing compartment and squinted into the darkness. The man standing outside didn’t look like a threat.He looked worn. Worn, like life had dragged him across concrete and left him there.“And who are you, sir?” th
