Rio collected the card from the detective, he had told the detective that money wasn’t the problem, that he was willing to pay any amount as long as he got his wife back.He thanked the detective for coming to his rescue as they both parted ways as Rio dropped him off at a nearby park and drove off.Rio had not gotten home when he contacted the private investigator, he didn’t have that patience and he felt time wasn’t on his side given the time the police had wasted assuring him of finding her while they did nothing.He dialed the private investigator’s number but he got no response,not giving up he tried again.“Hello” the voice from the other side answered.The private investigator had finally answered the phone.“Are you Rio?” The private investigator asked.The detective had informed him already on how he had shared his contact with him. “Yes,yes I am.” Rio answered as he parked his car properly.He had started his car to drive back home as he got no reply when he dialed his numb

Anita had finally regained consciousness, she had stayed unconscious for days after she was rescued from the abandoned warehouse.Her bruises and cuts were treated properly so as to avoid infection. Some of her bruises were wrapped in bandages as she bled excessively from some parts.She had been rushed in with blood flowing from the injuries she had sustained at the warehouse as Bianca had shown no mercy as she whipped her on a daily basis venting out her anger on her for stealing her man for the second time.She suffered a slight memory loss but the doctor had assured her it would return but slowly as she needed to give her body the rest it deserved.Rio had walked in while the drugs administered some pills to relieve her of the pain she felt in her head. “Rio!” She called out excitedly, she had been so happy to see him.Sitting on the hospital bed,she hugged him so tightly as she had missed and given up on seeing him again.She told him what she had gone through in the abandoned

A deep painful grunt sounded from the man who kept thrashing about in his sleep. His mind, soul, and body were lost to the memory that ate him alive and he had no way of stopping it. No, he didn't even want it to stop since that was the only way he could punish himself for the cruel fate he had subjected the woman he claimed to love to."Will you stop screaming, Rio? The baby is getting frightened." The woman pleaded with him vehemently."At this moment, I don't really care, Sandra!" Rio screamed at her again, doing exactly what she begged him not to do. He took his clothes and went out the door despite the many pleas of the woman."No! No!! You can't go, Rio!!! Turn back!!!!" Rio Allen screamed in his sleep as he continued to trash about and sob like a little child whose candy got lost.The memory fast-forward itself and decided to settle at the turn when he had found his life shattered into a billion pieces before his eyes. That awful moment when she had died."Don't die!" He scream
Rio stared in shock at the woman who had returned to her mourning for her lost one. It couldn't be, he thought to himself. Or could it?"Sa-Sarah?" He called out slowly.Anita smiled to herself before she turned around, "Who are you calling Sarah? My name is Anita," she informed the man.Rio couldn't believe his ears and eyes. He was sure that one of them was deceiving him. He stared deeply into the woman's eyes and that was when he saw that she had hazel eyes instead of the gray one his Sarah spotted."I'm sorry, Miss. I must have mistaken you for somebody else." He apologized but the woman didn't bother to respond and only just continued with her sobbing which had reduced and the occasional sniffing she did. "Stop crying, Miss." He consoled her."How could I not? I have no one else in the world now…" She stole a quick glance at the name and age of her supposed family, "...My uncle is dead." She finished, refusing to wish her father even a fake death.Rio crouched low to her, "Believ
Anita danced round and round her tiny apartment, her heart bubbling with joy at the success of the first step of her plans. True, she hadn't gotten a publishing deal yet but she knew that with the way the day had ended with Rio, she was on her way to getting one pretty soon. The other company has also rejected her work but she didn't mind one tiny bit, knowing that she already had the big fish in her net."Anita Dowell. USA today bestselling author." The smile on her face was huge as she envisioned the reality of her dream. "Oh, I can't wait until then!" She screamed and whirled around the room, whistling the tone from West life album 'I have a dream'."And can you tell me why you keep acting like you won the award for the best lawyer of all time?"Anita turned around in shock as she heard a voice say behind her. When she saw that it was only her roommate, Gracy, she relaxed her nerves."Won't you answer me?" Gracy asked again when her roommate resumed her joyful dancing steps."Very
