His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 78: A House Divided
The sky over New York had that pale gray shade that always hinted at a long day ahead. Sarah stood outside the secured wing of her estate as the convoy eased in, escorting the Nnadede family with the kind of discretion she reserved only for high-risk cases.Four guards flanked them, two assigned specifically to stay within reach of the family at all times. Two more stationed near the apartment entrance, scanning every passing shadow.Mr. Ifeanyi stepped out first, his movements cautious, as though expecting danger to leap out from behind the perfectly trimmed hedges. His daughter, Nkem, followed silently, her fingers loosely clutching her small travel bag.The lines under her eyes revealed a night without sleep. Trauma had a way of settling permanently in the body, refusing to be forgotten.Sarah moved toward them with a soft nod. “Welcome to your new home. I promise you, no one, absolutely no one, will touch you here.”Ifeanyi’s eyes darted around the estate. “This place… are you sur
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 77: The Return Deal
The sun had barely risen over Obeleagu Umana when Sarah stepped out of the small guest room where she and Ella had spent the night.The air held that early-morning chill that only rural communities truly understood, quiet, heavy, with the distant sound of roosters crowing and the soft murmur of women fetching water from the stream.She inhaled slowly, steadying her mind. Today, she needed strength. Today, she needed patience.She wasn’t giving up on the Nnadede family.The previous day had ended in disappointment, but not defeat. Sarah had faced walls tougher than this; political giants, corporate devils, people who had left her to burn in a warehouse.One frightened father could not shake her.She adjusted her jacket and motioned Ella to follow.When they reached the compound, Mr. Ifeanyi Nnadede was already outside, sweeping, as though he had been expecting them and preparing to chase them out again.The moment he saw Sarah approaching, he stiffened.“Madam, I thought I told you peo
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 76: The Village of Echoes
The next morning, after a night filled with broken sleep and echoes of gunshots replaying in their minds, Sarah and Ella boarded their flight to Enugu. Neither woman spoke much through the journey.The weight of the previous day hung around them like a shadow that refused to leave.Even the flight attendants sensed their tension and simply let them be.By late afternoon, they landed and met with their informant — a calm, middle-aged man named Chinedu, who drove a weather-beaten pickup truck.He greeted them with warmth and a quiet respect, then began the long drive towards Obeleagu Umana, a small village tucked deep inside the rural parts of Enugu State.The closer they got, the more the scenery shifted from noisy city roads to narrow, dusty paths flanked by tall palm trees and scattered mud houses. Smoke curled lazily from distant cooking fires.Children played barefoot along the roadside, their laughter carrying over the sound of rustling leaves. Goats wandered freely, and old men s
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 75: Blood On The Highway
The wheels of the plane touched the Abuja runway with a soft thud, and Sarah exhaled slowly, steadying her thoughts.Ella sat beside her, clutching her handbag tightly, her eyes fixed on the window. Neither of them spoke for the first few minutes—they were too aware of the gravity of what they’d flown into.This wasn’t a business trip.It was a hunt for truth.A hunt for justice.A hunt for the one thing that could finally bring down Lord Benedict Augustine.By the time they made it through immigration and stepped into the humid Abuja air, the sun was already harsh overhead, the heat wrapping around them like a heavy blanket.Their informant—an elderly man named Musa—had sent a message earlier confirming the road to his community was clear.But Nigeria had changed.And even clear roads could turn into battlegrounds in seconds.Just a few weeks earlier, a small community less than thirty minutes from that same road had been swallowed by terror overnight.It happened around 2 a.m., when
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 74: The Secret Meeting
The night after Adrian delivered the damning report about Lord Benedict Augustine, Sarah barely slept.She spent hours replaying the anonymous threat in her mind, weighing every possible angle—who sent it, why now, and how far they were willing to go. By morning, she had shifted fully into protective mode.Her first move was Daniel.She contacted the head of her private security team before sunrise, instructing him to discreetly station undercover guards at Daniel’s new school in New York.Every corner—from the main gate to the rear fence, was reinforced with eyes that blended into the background. She wanted no alarms, no uniforms, nothing that would make Daniel feel he was being watched like a prisoner.Inside her mansion, she introduced silent surveillance—barely noticeable and designed not to disrupt everyday life.The plan wasn’t to cage Daniel; it was to shield him from a world that kept reaching for them with claws sharpened by hatred and entitlement.When Daniel woke up and fou
His Choice Wasn't Me Chapter 73: The Buried Truths
Adrian arrived before sunrise.Sarah was in her home office already, going through emails with a restless focus that had become her new normal.When she heard the hurried knock, she looked up, surprised. Adrian didn’t usually interrupt her mornings unless it was urgent.The moment he walked in, urgency filled the air.He held a sealed brown envelope in his hand, his grip tight, his expression darker than she had ever seen on him. He didn’t speak immediately—he simply extended the envelope.“Sarah… you need to see this.”She took it, her brows tightening as she slid her finger under the flap. The papers inside were thick. Heavy.And the weight of what they carried seemed to hit her even before she read the first line.The silence in the room deepened as she scanned the documents. She read the first page, then the second, then the third—her heartbeat slowing, then quickening, then dropping into cold calculation.Adrian stood stiffly, watching her reaction, waiting for her to reach the f
