LOGINShe moved reluctantly; when she finally came out, her eyes were directly fixed at the police van that was parked at the center of the compound.From my observation, her mood changed. And her eyes narrowed. After a few seconds, she spoke.“Where is the doctor, sir?” She asked nebulously. Her eyes blinked.I quickly gave the officers a sign that she is One.They approach her at once.When she saw them, she became so shocked and confused.She started to look at me, and then she returned the look back to the officers. For a few seconds she stood silent.“Donal, what is the meaning of this?” She muttered. “What are these policemen doing here? I thought you said I should come and meet with a doctor. Are these men here the doctor you talked about?” She asked nebulously. “Pay attention to hear why they're here.” I poured out “I don't get you, sir.” She muttered. “Lizzy, we are police officers coming from the police headquarters. And here is our ID card and arrest warrant.”“You are under
At the Edifice of Donal.Donal POV.The sun was already planning its retirement to its abode. While the gentle breeze of the evening is gradually making its way into the atmosphere. And the trees are bowing to its strength.I arrived home so tired. Today has been so hectic for me. I had planned to go and meet with one of my company managers today. But all to no avail. Hum. I was sitting at the edge of my bed reminiscing and imagining everything that had happened a few hours ago. I thought by now Lizzy should have been back. What is still keeping her? I asked skeptically. As my eyes scan through the walls of my room.I don't believe she would think of harming Martha. It seems she wanted only Sofia out of her way. Martha may not be an obstruction to her evil plot.But on second thought, what if she decides to harm her? Anything is possible.She might decide to kill her. For attempting to eliminate her own blood sister Sofia, wasting Martha away would mean nothing to such a person. S
Donal POV “Regarding Lizzy, she will come. I will invite you people to come and get her arrested. This is so ridiculous.” I poured out bitterly. “I never knew Lizzy could be this wicked and heartless. I never knew she could turn against her own blood.“Lizzy, my own blood sister, wants me dead.” Sofia poured out. As she began to cough heavily again. I really felt for her. So if not for Philip, my gate man. This is how Sofia, my wife, could have gone without a trace, leaving Martha behind without notice! Hum. God!And I will be here busy feeding, housing, and nurturing a monster that will consume me without my knowledge. This is so despicable I screamed silently. I was so speechless and perplexed.My security guards, both of them, were just burying their faces to the ground in shame. I carried Sofia in my own car and rushed her to the hospital while we were on our way. Sofia kept on asking me about Martha. Anthony and James were thrown into the police van.“I want to see my daughter
At the Edifice of Donal.A police van drove in suddenly.Donal’s POV The gentle breeze was blowing. And all the ornamental flowers were busy prostrating to the ground. In humble response to the force, strength, and direction of the wind.A faint scent of the ornamentals filled the entire environment.Birds were busy singing melodiously. Filling the earth with music. The euphony of the atmosphere was so calm and enjoyable. I came out and stood under a tree that was standing very close to my car lot. Contemplating how my movement is going to look. I need to go and visit one of my managers for an important discussion. I can't keep staying back at home all because we are searching for Sofia. Who may be enjoying herself in one man's house. And here we are wasting our energy and resources searching for her.Since Lizzy accepted to look after Martha, I automatically lost interest in Sofia's case. I think after today, I will ask Anthony and James to retreat. They can't kill themselves all
Donal's POV At least I have tried my very best. I can't kill myself. Sofia is no longer a kid. I suspect maybe she doesn't want to continue with the contract marriage.But the sudden disappearance shouldn't have been the best way to go. She should have at least informed me that the contract marriage doesn't benefit her anymore. Leaving this way without any information is totally out of place. But on second thought, can she abandon her daughter this way? Considering the kind of love she has for her.I was sitting in the parlor meditating all alone; different thoughts were running through my mind. How can Martha cope in such a situation? If not for Martha, I don't think I would ever bother myself searching for her. After all, I never loved her in the first place. If I choose to ignore her completely, heaven will not fall.The only thing is for me to look for another girl and marry. Yes, and marry. But for the meantime, let me wait and hear from Inspector Damian and his team.I know ho
At the Edifice of DonalDonald's POV.“Daddy, where is Mommy? Where has she been?” Little Martha asked.My heart skipped. I believe she has started feeling the absence of her mother.“Your mom is coming, okay? She went to buy something for you. Just stay calm until she returns.” I spoke calmly."Okay,” she answered.I'm still trapped in a haze of worry. No reasonable information yet from my security guard. Even Inspector Damian is yet to give me any feedback from his investigations so far.What is actually going on? Who will be taking care of Martha? Considering my busy schedule and commitment to my company.I need to speak with Lizzy. If it means paying her for the meantime to look after Martha until this period of investigation is over. I think that's exactly what I'm going to do.Lizzy really needs to be with her, most especially this period, so that she won't feel too much of her mother's absence.“Good afternoon, sir.” A voice echoed through, which snapped me out of my reverie.
When I heard such words from her, I felt my heart beat go from 0 to 100. I felt like someone stabbed me with a sword across my chest. This girl is both real and mean to execute her plans. Her eyes are filled with fire already. While her mouth spills venom.My entire world is now surrounded with fea
Sofia's POV What have I done to deserve this painful punishment and torture? No food, no water. In this lonely and fearful forest. I cry out. I'm so completely exhausted. No strength to cry again. My heartbeat threatens to burst. My eyes are swollen. The scorching day sun has drained my entire
At the Edifice of Donal.Donal POV.The radiation of the sun was growing faint.And the sun was gradually losing its intensity. I drove in with my Lamborghini so exhausted from my two-day trip I just hope Sofia has prepared something delicious for me. I won't tolerate her usual behavior. She is f
At the Edifice of Donal.Sofia POV."You look worried,” Lizzy poured.With a face etched with concern."I'm fine,” I responded tenderly. But deep down I'm not. The way Donal has been treating me is really giving me concern. So rude. I'm afraid one day he might pound on me.We all sat in the parlor
