We hurry to the kids room only to find the room empty. "Fuck no where are our children?""I don't know, last night they were just here "The smoke detector was on but as we notice , there is no smoke or even a fire . Someone made the false alarm happen. We decide to look for the kids in all the rooms.Ten minutes later , there is no sign of even one kid. This is really bad , someone took our children. "Amanda call your mum , I'm calling the police" Miles shouts while ruffling his hair. My heart is thumbing so loudly and I bet Miles can hear it. Who took my poor babiesMum doesn't pick up her phone on the first two rings. Let's just hope she is okay ."Amanda it's fucking one in the morning. Why are
Unknown POVI have been observing the for more than three months now but I never acted . However today , I acted . I always thought with all their protectiveness and fame , my plan would have never succeeded.My plan at first was just to scare them but now I know they are terrified. The first thing I did was divert their attention towards something else , Tristan. I have known for a while that he is alive . According to how he was living I'd like to say he did not want to be found.When Tristan was presumed 'dead' I knew that was too hard to believe because the one I knew could not have just died that way . Two years later I came to find out that he is now living in South Africa and he was now a school teacher. That's so not like him, he had a girlfriend and an eight months old daughter. Bringing him back was so hard but I had to blackmail him so that he came. I had to use his daughter as a leverage for him to help me I guess his near death experience really changes him because the
Amanda POV "Miss P have you had anything so far?" "no I have not had anything, but I hope that I'll hear something because I'm already stressed right now"it has been 15 hours since I found out that my kids are missing, Miles is pacing upside down here I am sitting on the couch with my phone waiting for another ransom call or even a message or even a video of my kids to know that they're OK but I'm getting nothing. Ken, who came by when my parents came, has called like every investigator and detective that we know and those good ones. Nothing so far, most of them are saying they'll try and help but nothing so far.

UNKNOWN POV The first time I saw Amanda was about seven years ago, she was still so young. Her face lit up whenever she talked about anything. She had that beautiful innocent face; you know the dimples and all with minimal make up on. She was in her internship in the same company that I had been working for by then. I did not have the courage to talk to her because she was so confident, and she looked like she could not even go for a guy like me. By the time I had mastered the courage to ask her out, Tristan had already asked her out. I blamed him for that because he knew I liked her from the start, but he liked her too. For years I saw them happy, and it was painful for me to watch her happy with someone else. I always pretended to be happy for them but deep down I was heartbroken. In the next few years of their lives, I saw them happy, and they were so cheesy for my taste. Tristan knew all of this, but he still treated her badly, he still cheated and was so abusive to her after sh

“A custody battle is the next case Miss P " Eric my assistant informs me.“How many kids are involved?”“Two, a three years old boy and a seven months old girl”I always hate custody cases, mostly because kids are the ones that come to suffer because of their parents’ mistakes and at the end they have to stay with one parent. No kids deserve that. I stop what is doing and look at Eric, waiting for him to continue.“That’s all the information I have “I look at him questionably and start laughing knowing that he’s joking as always. When he maintains his serious face I knoWw he’s not joking“Why and how? “I ask astonished. I mean if you want assistance, you got to give out all the information required “who is filing for the battle?”“I actually don’t know, I only talked to the assistant who said that, her boss needs an appointment with you on custody battle of two kids. “He pauses and looks at his watch “and the client w
“…the court finds Julia Sanchez not guilty …..”The judge trails off giving me another win of the week. Julia was accused of being involved in a murder crime from her ex-boss. Well it happens that her former boss Mrs. Annie Michaels since her thirteen years old daughter was found dead on the day Julia was doing her day to day cleaning at the mansion. As a lawyer, I wasn’t supposed to judge anyone yet here I always knew she couldn’t kill even a fly. She’s just an innocent forty three years old mother of four trying to make ends meet.It happens; the daughter died from food poisoning, and guesses who made the food? Julia did, but left the food in the fridge for the family. It appears the girl committed suicide. I had also begun seeing Julia as the guilty one since all the evidence was pointing directly at her. I couldn’t bring myself to believe that that’s why I tried harder to make her not guilty. Until

He clarifies the ‘nth time.“Ok your ex-girlfriend whom you were dating six years and a mother of your two kids decided to just call it quits on you and the kids ““Yap, but that doesn’t matter anymore, she wants to go away with my kids so that she can start her life somewhere else with another man…”“Wait how do you know there’s another man in her life?”He sarcastically laughs “do you not know who my ex-girlfriend is? Don’t answers that don’t you know who Anne Evans is? “I look at him questionably.He gets out his phone and walks behind me on my chair and shows me a picture of a beautiful brunette lady. I shrug my shoulder and look at him from my shoulder and notice him loo
