Chapter 12Violet's POV"Ansel", I called but he wasn't within the hearshot anymore, so I had to just keep calm so as not to pose as a nuisance."Why did this guy leave me in the midst of all these unknown faces", I asked myself feeling anxious again.I had noticed people staring at me and it's making me feel quite uncomfortable, I wondered why it was like that."Maybe my dressing", I said to myself releasing a brief chuckle."But these stares are quite weird and they even look at me when conversing", I still thought to myself again confused at what's going on.I thought of either blending with them or hiding away and I kinda chose the latter.I looked back again and I stumbled on someone, I almost fell but had to hold myself."Will you get a grip of yourself girl", came in a harsh tone directed at me."Oh sorry, I never intended to", I replied apologizing to the female figure who stood in front of me giving me this disdainful look that's got me surprised as I am just seeing her for t

Chapter 14Violet's POV"Can someone help me please", I yelled but no one answered, I guess the noise is quite much.I would have called Ansel if only I had a phone, I was in the middle of this when I felt a hand drag me back and pushed me further into the bathroom in a very violent manner.I would have hit my head on the washing hand zinc ahead of me had I not been fast enough to use my hand to hold the bathroom wall ahead of me.I balanced well and faced about three feminine unknown faces with mean looks, their stature alone is quite defiant.Then about two of the bathroom door clicked open and I saw another unknown lady and the second one looked quite familiar but I couldn't guess who she was right away."Look who we have here", the one with the familiar face said, her voice gave her away."Oh God not again with Mrs. Crazy", I lamented within.She moved closer to me and looked at me so closely like she wants to beat me up at any moment, I got uncomfortable and stepped back a bit fr

Chapter 16 Ansel's POV "Why will she leave me the way she did", I asked myself now getting annoyed at her. I wanted to stand up to go check up on her since she left about 20 minutes ago but I decided against it and also I saw Gloria moving towards the restroom so Violet should be fine. "So how far with the expansion you told me about", a business partner in a grey suit asked me, my mind was in more than one place. "Yeah, I'm on it, my research and development team have started worked and...", I replied him immediately and we got into a business conversation that lasted about 10 minutes. I had just concluded my last point with him when I sighted an old pal, I stood up with holding my wine in my right hand and moved towards him to greet him and have a chichat, we were in the middle of it when I felt a arm around my neck. "What is it this time around?", I asked in a harsh tone without turning back, her cologne gave her away. "Common, Ansel love can't I greet you?", Sofia asked me

Chapter 18Ansel's POV"Hello, where are you?", I placed a call through to Henry and moved a few distance from Violet and Gloria."Still at the party bro, anything?", Henry asked"Jim is here", I told him"Fuck!!!, we need to get Violet out now", he said"Yeah, my plan exactly", I replied"Better, meet me at the underground basement", he said and hung up."Henry is on his way", I said to Gloria and Violet though facing Gloria when I got back to where I left them earlier. "Better", Gloria said.We soon got to Henry who helped us out with his bullet proof car.I looked at Violet's eyes and all I could see was panic but I let it slide, all I was concerned about was her safety.Their car moved out of the underground parking lot, while I and Henry hurried back into the party venue."Keep your eyes on Jim when he gets in and be prepared", I said to Henry as we got into the party again."Plus act cool bro", I added."Noted", he replied.We split up immediately, I went towards Mr. Ross to s

Chapter 20Violet's POVIt's been two days since Gloria left the house, there has been no much activities from me except eating, reading and just sleeping, I soon got so bored of everything and decided to move around the house the third day, I left the room immediately after my bathe and moved outside the house, I wanted to have a view of the external house, I satisfied my curiosity and sat outside close to the swimming pool in the compound.I ruminated over the whole thing."Is this how I'm going to continue for real?""My family, am I ever going to see them again?", I asked myself cos it wasn't making sense anymore.I need to call my mom and if possible see her but what will I tell her, I never knew but I need to speak to her.I went to the room to pick up the phone."Hello", she said but I couldn't reply immediately."Who is on the line please?", she asked again but I couldn't reply her, maybe it's because of the dangers lurking around or because of what Ansel may do when he finds
