Chapter 16
Samantha’s POV
I pulled the hood of my sweatshirt up to cover the cap on my head, tucked my revolver in its pocket and my daggers in my thigh boots. I closed the door behind me while I exited my house. As soon as I was out of the house, I pressed the button that revealed my car, which was hidden behind a gate in its designated area.
I headed to the car. I got in, fixed my seatbelt, ignited the car and zoomed out. I connected my phone to the car and called Nate. After a few beeping sound, I heard his excited voice.
“Lia!”
“Hey, Nate.”
“I thought you eloped again.” He teased.
“Who would I elope with?” I chuckled and simultaneously merged into the moving vehicles. “By the way, did Uncle Mark show up today?”
“No, he hasn’t been here lately.”
“Okay, what about Adrian?” Silence ensued. “N

Adrian's POVI ran my fingers through the books that were on my desk before I slammed the opened one shut. I've been bothered since Emilia left few hours ago and I could blame it on the words she said. If anything, why would my name continuously pop up just like she mentioned? I never had any interest in the Anderson's business. They were one of the most successful family brand home and abroad and my family was just next to theirs. But that never made me barge into their affairs like my cabinet would want to.I also have no idea as to why Emilia would prefer to work for him as his personal bodyguard. The reasons were just not forthcoming. She had been the gentle and submissive type. Rarely gets into a fight nor disagree with me. She was always this loving and caring girl who was head over heels in love with me before she went into hiding.I tried all I could to get information about her location but all to no avail. I sinc

Samantha's POV "Don't you like it enough to stay here?" I chuckled at his expression. "No...uhm..yeah... I mean..." He stuttered, unable to state his opinion in one piece. I believe my question caught him off guard. "Why would you want me to live with you?" He asked. "Well, not with me actually cause I won't be living here for too long." I answered. "What? Why?" He snapped. "Are you moving again?" "No," It was amusing how he suddenly looked pissed off when he asked his questions. "I'll be living with someone else now." He let out an "oh!" "So it just came to my mind that you might just stay here and act like you own it." I chuckled. "Why should I act like I own it?" He frowned and I sighed. If I really wanted him to help him out, I'd have to explain things to him without giving out much information. If I do not, I doubt if Nate would just accept t

Samantha's POVA loud sound woke me up and I jerked out of my deep slumber. The moment I opened my eyes, I realized I couldn't see a thing. My mind went blank but I didn't get the chance to panic though because my mind and brain suddenly came to life to realize that it was dark and it was nighttime already.The continuous tone that filled the entire room brought me back to the fact that it was what woke me up. I stood up from the bed and tried to search for my phone, using the little ray of light that existed in the room and the sound from the phone."Ouch!" I winced when I hit my leg against something I couldn't make out. "Where's the damn phone? I should at least see it with it's light."Bearing the sting, I eventually found my phone on the nightstand. I realized it was placed face down and the moment I picked it up, the light from the screen shone in the room but went off instantly.Before I co

Adrian's POV"Boss," Alexander bowed immediately he entered my living room. "Morning, Alex. What's up?" I inquired when I noticed his expression. "I've just got an information from one of our men that's on young Miss' trail." I sat up from the couch when I heard him mention Emilia. "What news? Is she okay?" "She moved into Ryan Anderson's house.""What?"I stood to my feet in annoyance. Why on earth would Emilia do that? Why does she want to risk her life while getting revenge? "Are you sure about this?" I asked strictly. "Yeah, sir." Alex nodded. "It's bound to happen since she became his personal guard.""Yeah, that's true but..." I trailed off.Lia! I ran my fingers through my hair. What exactly are you trying to prove by moving in with him?"Any news about the other one?" "No, boss." I sighed and nodded in understanding. "I guess the person acts too perfect to leave any trace of his involvement." I

Samantha's POV“Sam!” I flinched in shock when I heard the familiar voice.“Please, don't let it be him!” My mind chanted pleadingly till I turned to look at the person almost at the same time Adrian did.I should have known that no Adrian, no problem. Every time he popped up, I had something to deal with.“Oh no!” I exclaimed inwardly when I noticed Philip's suspicious gaze as he walked closer to us.Thankfully, Adrian has moved away from me just in time for Philip to stop in front of us.“What are you doing here?”“I…um… I came to get my phone from the car.” I stuttered. “Yeah, my phone!”“Oh, …okay,” Philip answered hesitantly. He shifted his gaze to Adrian.“Mr. Adrian,” he smiled. I could see that it was forced.“All right, Sam

Sam's POV Morning came as fast as it could and the night before, I barely had an issue staying under Ryan's roof because despite the fact that we stay together, we never crossed paths. Dinner would have been the issue but thankfully, Ryan made sure I ordered dinner for us before we got home. This morning, I got his call via the intercom informing me that he was ready to leave for work. I exited my room, ensured I locked the door before heading to the sitting room. It might be Ryan's house but that room is now mine and I can't afford to get caught because someone snitched on me after going through my belongings. I went to the car garage to get the car and before I got to the front of the building, Ryan was already waiting. I stopped the car in front of him and without waiting for me to get the door for him, he got in himself. I drove him to work before the rush hour would take its full effect. While he wo

Ryan's POV"Thanks for the meal, Sam." I appreciated the great cook. The meal was indeed tasty and I was sure Olivia enjoyed it too, judging from the smile on her face as she stared at Sam. "Olly, what do you say to uncle Sam?" I urged. "Thank you, Sam." "It's nothing, sir." Sam replied with a stoic look that never seems to fade from his face. He stood up to pack the plates and cups used."RRA, your friend hasn't smiled since I met him. Is he unhappy?" Olivia whispered to me but still loud enough for Sam to hear."No, baby." I chuckled. "By the way, you are beautiful." Sam paused. "Olivia, the word is 'handsome'." I laughed while she frowned. "I know but he doesn't..." "Olivia, thanks for the compliment. You're pretty as well." Sam smiled. Wow!"Excuse me, sir!" He said and disappeared round the corner and from the dining room, we could see him take care of the plates and cups. He came back few minutes later.

Samantha's POVIn the confined area I've been held hostage at, I paced up and down, throwing my fist into my palm once in a while. Ryan's guards stood around to keep an eye on me and I felt helpless. That feeling got me angry because of all things, I hated the feeling of helplessness. But anyone walking by would think we were just guards waiting on our boss. I had no idea that these guards would be here tonight. Their presence here definitely meant Ryan expected something would happen that needed their attention.I shut out the voices around me while I tried to think about what just happened. I was mystified at the sudden turn of things. Adrian couldn't possibly do that to me. "Even when he knew I despise him, he still loved me enough not to implicate me knowingly." I thought inwardly. My forehead creased when the pitiful look on my uncle's face reflected in my mind. I stopped in my track."Did he possibly know something was gonna happen to me today?"
