She kept staring at Richard to the point that Richard became even more uncomfortable. He quietly sat and looked at every face on the table. The whole thing looked just too strange to him. All the while, he was battling with his spirit " Should you be doing this Richard? " he asked himself, but couldn't come up with an answer. Shortly after he settled in, Chloe moved closer to where he was seated and tried getting acquainted. " Hi, my name is Chloe . What about you? " It took Richard seconds to actually decide whether to respond to that or not, but felt since he's already in it, it’s best he tune it down a little so they won't conspire against him. " My name is Richard " " It’s good to meet you Richard, hope you are having fun? " "Just joined, so I can't say for sure" " Can I keep you company, Richard? " " That won't be necessary Chloe " " I insist please " He was beginning to loosen up a bit and kinda getting used to the people he found himself in their midst . Sudd

" Hello Richard, is everything okay? " " Yea Everything is fine Gabriella, will see you in the morning " " I wanted to ... " Gabriella wasn't done with what she had to say when Richard abruptly ended the call in her ear and went back to join the others. " You are back early Richard " Richard didn't find it necessary to respond to that question. So he pretended he didn't hear her and went back to taking his wine. " I seriously want to get close Richard, is that too much to ask? " Can you save your acquaintance for someone else, please? " -Chloe's POV- Drink to your misery son of a bitch! You are too rich and feel the world revolves around you, right? Just wondering why he's feeling all high and might. That being rich doesn't give you the right to make others worthless around you, you are lucky Gabriella wanted just a little substance in your drink. I would have drugged you to death, silly thing.

He left to go get another room, but the receptionist told him the rooms were all occupied. He wasn't too happy about that because he wanted to stay very close to Richard. He then asked the receptionist to help him keep an eye on the customer in room 207 while he quickly located another hotel that was close to Richard's to spend the night. Chloe took Richard inside the room and made sure he was comfortable on the bed . Then she stepped outside the room and called Veronica immediately. " Thank goodness you're not far this time, listen Veronica I need you to get to this place in the next 30 minutes. "" Same address you sent earlier or another because I'm already on the road? " " Another, check your phone I just sent it " " Okay, I will be there. Before you know it, " " Look Veronica, you can't waste a second . Richard's friend is also in the same hotel where we are right now, so I need us to be fast before he knows what's going on. we are done " Veronica quickly told th

I thought about what to do. At that point, I couldn't come up with an idea, Then a voice said to me immediately, " What if this receptionist is right here? Do you think you have any chance of going in there? " At first, I didn't understand what that meant. But when I tried digesting it, I came to realize if the receptionist was on it she would probably call the room. Tell them I'm coming in. They will ask what my name is and at that point, I have lost every chance. Cause I just ended up implicating myself. I took to my heel and raced round the hotel doors looking for room 207. It was a very big place and locating it wasn't a very simple task, but I didn't give up I kept on looking at the numbers on the door. -Veronica's POV- What's keeping this idiot from getting here already? I hope she's not about to make me waste my whole time. Because I know what I went through trying to come this far with my plan, she won't dare because I will make sure she doesn't live to see the next

Just like a dream, Richard didn't seem to understand,d what was going on. He looked at the person beside him, checked himself and found out he was completely naked. " Am I dreaming? and where the hell is this place? And why do I have Veronica on the same bed with me? Can someone wake me up already? What is happening here? " Before Richard could completely realise what just happened, Veronica was leaving the room and Richard watched her leave. A few minutes later, his senses were gradually coming back to him. He looked and saw Gabriella lying on the floor . He quickly got up and hurried to carry her up. but she wasn't moving her body, " What is going on? " He looked around him but doesn’t know exactly what he was looking for. He quickly got dressed and was looking for his car keys so he could take Gabriella to the hospital when his friend ran into his room . He came and didn't see Chloe . Richard, too, looked really confused. " Is Everything Alright Richard " Richard quic

"Just a second Richard" " Don't tell me that, where’s the damn car! " His friend knew at that point it was no longer a joke. He quickly ran out to search for the security guy but met him at the door coming in, " What kept you this long? " " I'm sorry it took me long to get here Sir " Immediately, Richard carried Gabriella, going outside when his friend came to assist him, but he told him to stay off, "I'm sorry man, I didn't mean to get you into this" " This coming late dude. I told you I don't club! Now look at the mess I'm into " " Take it easy Richard, we will get through this together. Trust me " He opened the car door and helped him dress Gabriella inside it without wasting a second Richard hopped in and asked whoever was driving to make sure they moved faster, but his friend didn't seem to like the idea of speeding up."You could get yourself into trouble if you move on a high speed, you know right? " " I don't care, I just want to see my kids again! " " Ki

The girls were done with their food and Richard decided to drive them to the hospital, they were surprised to see their father watch them eat and not order a thing for himself.

Gabriella wondered why he wanted her to know Richard was innocent when she didn't discuss anything with him. The last thing she felt she needed at that moment was to have unnecessary discussions. Richard stood with his back resting on the car thinking of where to go from there. His friend walked up to him held him on the shoulder and said. " Richard take them home I will be there before 6 pm this evening. " " I have never been this ashamed of myself in my whole life. You need to help me out. Please John " "I will do what I can just take them home for now". He was able to make Richard feel a little better, then walked away while Richard stood and watched him walk away. He was still standing and thinking of the next thing to do when Amber said, " Dad Can we go, please? " Richard was very far away and didn't hear Amber, but Sofia couldn't wait any longer.

Richard sat close to his girls, shedding tears for the first time and they were both surprised to see their dad do that. The girls didn't understand what would make their father shed tears in that manner. Sofia quickly turned to her mummy to know if she had any idea, because she looked completely confused, but before she could say the word out of her mouth, she was already on her way to her room. " Oh no! What's going on? " Sofia said to herself and turned to her daddy immediately to ask him what the problem was, " Daddy, you are never this person . What's going on please?
