Dinner

Chapter 141“My darling, what’s wrong?” Chris asked gently“Why did you lie to me? You said you would be back soon” she managed to say amid the tears.“Uh… Helena…” He was short of words“Please stop crying” “Whaen are you coming back?” Helena asked, already having hiccups from the tears“Very soon… actually, I’m staying a bit longer because of Alexa, she needs my help here” Chris said without planning to.His desperate mind searched and dug it out of nowhere, just to keep his daughter calm.“Oh, what!? Alexa? Wh… what’s wrong with her?” Helena asked, her voice a bit gentle.“I would give you full details once I’m back, but just know that why I’m still here is becauase I need to help Alexa with a lot of things, you don’t want her to be stressed, do you?” Chris asked, slightly happy that his strategy was working.“No, I don’t” Helena shook her head vigorously, clenching the phone to her ear with all her strength.“That’s good, please be a good girl okay, and never forget that daddy l

Uncovering

Chapter 142The dinner went really well… according to Fred. To Thelma, she brought together every iota of acting she had within her to put herself together and not give Fred any reason to suspect her. She tried asking questions about his work twice, but he evaded them smartly, returning the focus on her. When she asked the third time, she could see in his eyes that he started to sense something. So she decided to change the strategy and not ask him, but something else that was even surer than asking him. After the dinner, Thelma knew he would want her to follow him home and he didn’t disappoint. “Make my joy full by going home with me tonight, Thelma” Fred said, holding her hand. “Man! You made my stomach full, I can’t even move right now” she said and chuckled. “Great. I’ll carry you… remember how I used to carry you and spin you back when we were still young and how I used to carry you like a bride, like my babe… telling you I was practicing how I would carry you on our weddi

Desperation and Progress.

Chapter 143Ring ringSophie grogily rubbed her eyes and stretched, yawning. She placed her hand around the stool a couple of times, wanting to pick up her phone, but not wanting to get up. It was a sunny afternoon of a weekend, but she was so tired and decided to take a nap.“Hello” She said, her voice not completely coming through.“Oh, hello” her voice came through clearer and she sat up on the bed, resting her back on the headrest.“Yeah… mhm… oh.. Okay, there’s no problem” She shook her head like they could see her. Ella took a cursory glance at her and then looked back at the mirror where she was checking out her outfit, just to go grocery shopping. “Who’s that?” Ella asked in a rush, immediately Sophie was dropping the phone from her ear. “It was from mum’s hospital… she wants to see me…” Sophie said. “Really? When are you going so we can go together?” ---“Mummy, we are all doing great” Ella replied her mum, sitting beside her on the bed, clothed in her pink hoodie tha

A Good Dichotomy

Chapter 144Ethan turned to go back inside and saw Caden walking out. Caden was tall, huge and handsome. He was muscular and well built. He came in through Mr Doughlas who found him fighting on the streets, he saw potential in him, took him in and fed him like he wanted to just assist him, unknown to Caden that he wanted to make him one of his boys. Mr Doughlas had kept his own children far away, no one really knew anything about his family, he handpicked the best… negatively… to get his job done.Caden wanted to go to school and Mr Doughlas sponsored him, he did everything to buy the loyalty of Caden which he eventually did. Caden became his right hand man and got initiated. He got more training and became extraordinarily good at the job. He was Ethan’s number one rival. When it was time to go out, they united and used their strengths to oppose the enemy, although they silently tried to be the one who made the victory happen, but they never let an outsider know they were not in

A Little Discussion

Chapter 145Sara was so happy that she had escaped and it seemed that the love between Mr Doughlas and Sara was blooming so beautifully, until Sara wanted to focus on her own selfish interest, not like she really cared about him from the start. “Sara!” Mr Doughlas pointed firmly at her“I know the amount of money I spent for you to be here today…” “Stop shouting at me and stop pointing your finger at me like that… just tell me why you’re doing all these” she blurted out, like she didn’t know why.She had guessed that he found out about her discussion with Ethan, but just decided to play dumb. “You know exactly why I’m here” Mr Doughlas said. “I don’t! What am I? A mind reader?” She said even before he finished speaking. “If you love yourself, make sure not a fly touches Alexa!” he commanded. Sara looked around slowly, knelt on her bed and bursted out into a hysterical laughter. “Sooo… so that’s why…” she laughed hard again and flipped her hair. “Is that why you came here, to i

Story

Chapter 146He turns and begins to take his leave.Alexa looks up and sees his reflection of him leaving. “Why are you reducing it to 15 days, you can as well make it 20 days… do whatever… just give up now and kill me because you’re not getting a word out of my lips” she said casually, like she was speaking to a friend.Like a trap catches an animal, those words made Mr Doughlas’s feet rooted to a spot. He slowly turned back to look at her again, amused by those words, her tone, her demeanor. Did she not know she was in danger? “Are you really okay with your son never ever seeing you again?” Mr Douhlas asked sharply, piercing the vulnerable part she tried to protect.Her defenses dropped. He must have known her so well. He knew she had Keon?Her face dropped, a painful lump formed in her throat, she felt some sharp pain in her eyes as she felt some moisture there too, her heart shook heavily.That was a conversation she had been avoiding to have with herself. It was like choosing

Good News

Chapter 147He turned back smiling. ‘It worked’ he thought.“Yes” he said innocently.Alexa felt a deep pull to just give him the recipe, but then, the image of Bryan receiving the award of the best winery popped in her head. Another image of Mr Doughlas receiving the award while they just clapped, buried among the crowd also popped up in her head. This was a recipe that she worked tirelessly to get. She hardly slept 4 hours those nights. She didn’t even plan to get the recipe… it just came as a byproduct of her hard work. Now she would give it to a man who kidnapped her? Knowing fully well that it could create a huge dent in the lives of those who loved her?“Did you… remember how you’ll feel if you see your mum again and decide to give me the recipe?” Mr Doughlas asked.That was when it dawned on Alexa that it was just an emotional bait to get her to speak. ‘Whao! He knows about my mum too? What a height of wickedness to do this to me’ she thought, realising his strategy.She cl

Determination

Chapter 148“Really? He sat at the edge of his chair.“What’s that?” his breath already deeper, his heart race increasing.“So, I discovered something and I’m not sure yet.. In fact it sounds crazy” Thelma said.“Wh… what’s that?” Bryan asked, his whole body so eager to hear what that was. “I have a feeling Alexa might be in Atlanta Georgia” “What! Georgia? Why? By Who?” Bryan could not belive it. Chris looked at him, getting that it was a serious conversation. “By a team here… look, they are really really brutal. I do not have all the facts and I have not been able to see f0r sure, but with the information I got, there are two much to be a conincidence” Thelma added. “Gosh!” Bryan axcalmied.“I’m booking the next available flight” he said to Thelma, his voice slightly raised.“All right Bryan, I’ll text you my address and everything else you need to know” Theklma said. “Thanks… Thanks Thelma” Bryan said and ended the call. He looked left and right not knowing what to do first.

The Attack

Chapter 149When their plane landed, Thelma was already at the airport waiting for them. Through texting and calling, they found her and she drove them to her house. “Whao, good to see you Thelma, you look quite different from how you appear on the video calls” Bryan said. “Oh, yeah.. I actually get that a lot” she replied, smiling. The only place Bryan ever saw Thelma was on the video calls with Alexa when they were still together. “Also, I think the last time we spoke was last year…” Thelma added.“Yes, then Alexa was still with me” Bryan completed it. Thelma wanted to say that, but was being careful of mentioning that in case it would hurt Bryan’s feelings again. She smiled and nodded. “Hello, good afternoon” she greeted Chris also.“Yeah, hi” Chris replied shortly and coldly, looking away instantly. Thelma felt somehow, but she thought he was not in a good mood or overwhelmed with the search for Alexa. Guilt and regret were eating deeply into Chris. As he saw Thelma, pic

The FIGHT!

Chapter 150Ethan knew there were other guys in the room with him, but he ignored them and moved straight to Alexa.Alexa knew someone was coming, but was too weak, too sad, too heavy to even look back at who the person was. She was at the point of ‘come what may, I don’t care” He quietly brought out the knife from behind him, went down on a knee and swerved right on Alexa with a force! Alexa jolted out of fear when she felt a wave of air hit her because of the force Ethan moved with. In the split of a second, she cried out in pain, holding her stomach “Arghhh…” she screamed on top of her lungs. Then she felt someone dragging the man away from her and switched on the light. As the light came on, the first thing she saw was a sharp knife, right before her, but it was clean, there was no blood on it. She saw another hefty guy hold Ethan by the neck with his elbow and dragged him. She looked at her stomach and realised it was a heavy blow from one of them that hit her. ‘Do they w
