Tracy pushed open the curtains on her bedroom window and took an aerial look at the neighbourhood. She stood at the window side with lots of thoughts running through her mind.As she wrestled with the many thoughts, her eyes caught sight of a Bentley that was driving by. Immediately, it reminded her of her time at the Parker house where her neighborhood had countless Bentleys drive past on a daily basis. But now she lived with Louisa in a place called Cealpaa. Cealpaa is just a few minutes' drive away from the heart of Purple City but closer to BlueVille. The inhabitants of Cealpaa are mostly middle-class people. And the people who lived there were equally hardworking. Even Tracy had noticed how the people of Cealpaa didn't joke with their job. And if there was anyone to confirm Tracy's observation, it was Louisa.She had noticed how her friend was always on the move to work for clients and also make some money to help take care of expenses at the house.And the thought of tha

The veins on the sides of Charles's forehead started to pop as he drove in his Range Rover Velar and bit his bottom lip.He had wanted to drive at top speed, but the thought of landing in trouble with the police despite his affiliation with Officer Daniels, discouraged him as he drove within the stipulated speed limit. Charles had received a threatening message from the kidnappers. And failure to carry out what the message said would endanger the lives of Fiona, David and Leonardo. The message read:[Charles Parker. It's been over five days since we took custody of your friends.A ransom had been put before you. But, it appears to me that you consider all of this to be a joke.If you cared about your so-called Fiona and the other two guys, you would have done the needful by now.I could have called you on the phone but decided to message you instead, that way you won't have the authorities trace my call.Now listen and listen carefully.You have played around for the past five days

Two weeks passed. Fiona, David and Leonardo were discharged from the St Anthony hospital. Charles had taken care of the hospital expenses and was excited that his number-one chauffeur was back on his feet and In good shape. “The excitement I feel in my heart is immeasurable. In all honesty, I’m glad you’re back.” Charles told David who was seated in the hall of the Chauffeurs' apartment. The Parker mansion had separate apartments that were occupied by the many aides in the house. The chauffeurs had their space while the cleaners, cooks and other extra hands had their apartments. “I should be thankful to you too sir. Those kidnappers would have done worse had you not paid the ransom. I’m grateful and will forever be indebted to you for saving my life.” David said in a respectful tone. As the two spoke, a few other Chauffeurs walked in and out of the apartment to get one thing or the other. “I never imagined that I would step foot into this very apartment. To do this for your sake

In the heart of Purple City stood the famous coffee shop known as 'coffee cafe.' One of the busiest coffee joints in the city.It was the same coffee shop Fiona had exited years ago when Charles accidentally hit her with his car.Coincidentally, Chris and Albert had gone to the same coffee shop to tackle an issue involving Fiona and Charles. The revelation made at the Parker house got the two friends wondering and after they left the Parker house, they fixed a meeting with David at the coffee cafe.Chris and Albert were seated near a window where they could easily see what was happening outside of the coffee shop.While the two waited on the arrival of David over a cup of coffee, Albert kept looking out the window to see if David was in sight as he had informed them minutes ago that he was almost there."Relax Albert. I'm sure he will be here soon. Just stop looking out the window and drink your coffee. Your behaviour is kinda suspicious." Chris said."Suspicious? What do you mean?"

Charles and Fiona shook the whole of Purple City. The news of their secret wedding ceremony came as a shock not only to the family but to the media.Until the 'supposed photo shoot' that turned out to be a real wedding reception, the media did not know he was divorced from Tracy.Charles' father, Edward Parker, loved the idea of a talked-about wedding. So when his son was getting married to Tracy, he made sure that the biggest media houses were present to telecast the ceremony to viewers. But after the marriage failed. Charles, for some strange reason, was able to keep it away from the media. The media only found out he separated from Tracy on the day of his wedding reception with Fiona.Meanwhile, back in Cealpaa, Tracy was covered with a huge green towel after taking off her wet dress. And her hair was also wrapped in a green towel.She sat on the floor of her bedroom. Her two legs were tightly closed and they made a triangle shape with the base of the ground. Her hands were wra
