Chapter Twenty one

Ryan's disappearance from a heavily secured hospital room sounds so serious. They had moved him from his previous room because of a security breach. How could there be another security breach? Emiiy wondered, as she paced around. “I need to talk to someone at the hospital.” She said as Sophia checked her phone, and called back the number. A female voice came through on the other end.“Hello. Good morning.This is Emiiy Carter.” she said. After all the pleasantries, she asked the nurse to give the phone to the hospital security.“I heard that Ryan has disappeared. Has he been kidnapped?” She asked.“No. We checked the security cameras, it showed him walking out on his own.” He said. “If the room was so secure, why did no one see him leave?” She asked. *The hospital security tried to stop him, but he told them that the doctor had discharged him.” He responded.“Did he tell you where he wanted to go?” *He only said he has something important to take care of.” The security guy responded.

Chapter Twenty Two

Emily was confused because she had to make a difficult decision. She was confused because that information can change everything. “Did Ryan use that information as bait to get her attention?” She couldn't stop pondering. “Who could Ryan be talking about?” She asked as she read that line one more time. “They also affixed some financial history. “Emily stretched her hand and collected the papers from Sophia. She perused over the large transfer that was made three different times. Damian requested for the document, and Emily gave it to him. When he saw the total figure that was withdrawn, he was furious.Damian, who was still sitting nearby, took the document from her and studied it. “That is a lot of money.” He said as he wondered who could be responsible for that. “Did Ryan send this to you?” Damian asked. “His lawyer did.” Sophia replied.Emiiy felt like the past three years of life have been a lie. Presently, she could feel anger eating her up from within. She felt like the whole wo

Chapter Twenty Three

Emily was finally close to discovering the reality about the trust her parents left her. But it never occurred to her how much that discovery will cost her. Sophia wanted to look at the printed documents again, so she collected them from Emily. After going through them again slowly, she checked it side by side with the old ones that had been compiled.“Margaret misused the opportunity she had as your legal guardian to transfer your money.” Sophia tells Emily who was already waiting eagerly.“What can we do to get back theoney?” Emily asked as her countenance changed.“We can get it back, but first we have to verify the exact account the money was transferred to. We are in luck because these financial records give us enough information to start looking.“Margaret Carter with all her poise, is a common criminal.” Emily told her, as she took a breath of relief. “Emily, please you have to mind the words that you use. She was your legal guardian. Even though she did not act in your best i

Chapter Twenty Four

That message that Lucas Bennett sent Emily made her even more angry. She tried to read the message again, If she could feel less angry this time. We need to talk. It is about Vanessa. She told me something before I found out about the affair. I know that she played both of us.”“Lucas has something important to tell me about his girlfriend, Vanessa. Who I just finished talking to by the way.” Emily said as she gazed at Sophia. “He should have at least revealed some details about what he wants to tell you.” Sophia responded, as she checked her phone. “I think I should at least see him and hear what he wants to say. After all, he was also betrayed by Vanessa.” Emily said.“If you are going, then I am going with you. I will not let you go there alone “ Sophia said as she got up from the sofa. Emily and Sophia put on some decent clothes and entered the car. It was Sophia's car, so she was the one driving. “Where are we meeting Lucas?” Sophia asked. “Let me text

Chapter Twenty Five

Emily tried very hard to process Vanessa's revelation. She did not believe someone that was as close to her as Vanessa could hurt her so much. Her recent discovery did not make it any easier for her.“I cannot tell you everything over the phone, it is not even as black and white as it seems.” Vanessa said with a heavy breath.“You cannot call me just to give me this half information. You have to give me more than that.” Emily urged her.“I was involved in something, and somehow it required a lot from me. So I stumbled on somebody, I didn't know who he worked with. They just required me to get information about Damian Knight from Ryan.” Vanessa said.“Why are you still trying to avoid the truth? Please make your stories straight. Did you give them the information they requested?” Emily asked.“I wanted to give them but I eventually had to rethink,” Vanessa responded.“Was there anything in particular they wanted to know?” Emily asked.“They wanted to find out the secrets Ryan had on Da

Chapter Twenty Six

That message startled all three of them but no one wanted to let it show. What else could Emily lose other than Ryan whom she had already lost. Sophia looked at the message again and immediately, she knew that it was a threat. “So it has gotten to this,” Sophia said looking at Lucas who was already trying to call Vanessa to get further information from her, but the call moved to voicemail. “How are we going to find Vanessa?” Emily asked. “I don't think that she would still be in her apartment. Because whoever sent this message might also be after her “ Sophia responded. Lucas reached for his pocket and brought out his phone. He opened his gallery and checked the picture of Vanessa and Daniel Brooks. When he magnified the background he saw the entrance of the building at their back.“Hold on!” He exclaimed. “See what I found.” He said as his countenance changed. Sophia and Emily pulled their chairs closer to him as he showed them visible signage just ahead of the door which said:

Chapter Twenty Seven

Emily's gaze was fixed on the picture till she realized that the person that took that picture, was not very far from them. They were standing close enough to know everything that happened around.Emily turned and looked at everybody in the cafe, people carried on with their normal lives, talking and chattering as cars passed by outside.Everything seemed normal. But in a way, someone seemed to know her every move.“Do you know when this picture was taken?” Sophia asked Emily.“It was taken earlier today, when I was seeing Damian off.” Emily replied.Lucas took the phone from Emily and zoomed in. “You need to see this. Look at this black vehicle that is packed behind.” Lucas said, as he pointed at the exact spot the vehicle was parked.“I think the person who took the picture, parked this car and went to look for somewhere they would get a better angle.” Lucas added.“Someone could be watching us right now. They could have even taken pictures of us.” Sophia said.“Were you able to tra

Chapter Twenty Eight

Chapter 28 completeThe disappearance of the black car made Emily believe that the person that was in that car was monitoring her.“Do you think they know about everything we talked about in the cafè?” Emily asked as leaned against Sophia's care glaring at the blank area opposite the street.“I have no idea,” Sophia responded.Emily thought of Damian's last words one more time and wondered why Damian did not just tell her who it was. And why he cancelled their meeting tonight.But all that thought was interrupted by Sophia, as she opened the door and said“Emily, we need to leave this place.”Emily moved and went inside the car immediately. Just as Sophia drove off, Emily heard her phone ring. She brought it out from her bag and saw that it was Lucas, so she picked it up right away.“Lucas, what is the matter?” She asked.“Have you and Sophia driven off?” He asked. “Yes, but we are still close by,” she said.“When you left, I decided to remain at the cafè for a few minutes just to go

Lucas's last words shook Emily to the bone."Someone we know.""Who is it?" Emily asked.Lucas hesitated before answering."Who was there with Daniel, Lucas?""Before I tell you anything else, I want to be sure."Sophia gazed at Emily."Where are you?""I remain parked in front of David Miller's residence."Sophia immediately said, "Get out of there.""I will."Emily held her phone tighter."Please, Lucas. Who did you see?"I witnessed Daniel and a woman leaving the house.”“Who”?"I had trouble seeing her face. She got into a black SUV."Did you identify the car?""Yes."Lucas paused for a second."Margaret Carter is the registered owner."Emily's heart stopped."My mom-in-law?"Before I phoned you, I ran the plate. It is listed under her name.Sophia's face changed."Are you sure?""If I was not sure, I would have to you," Lucas said.Emily stared at Sophia.Margaret was already bound by her inheritance.It looked like she was meeting Daniel Brooks now.The same man who had used Van

Ryan was in trouble.“Please call him again,” Sophia persuaded her.Emily dialed Ryan's number right away.It rang a single time.Then it went directly to voicemail.She gave it another try.Still nothing.Sophia turned on the car."We need to find somewhere safe."Emily kept her eyes fixed on her phone."He said they were there.""Who do you think he is referring to?" Emily asked."I have no idea."Emily could not erase those messages from her head.RYAN IS NOT WORKING WITH MARGARET.HE'S TRYING TO SAVE YOU FROM HER.Was Ryan truly attempting to protect her?She no longer knew what to believe.Her phone rang.This time, it was Lucas's turn.Emily replied right away."Lucas?""Have you heard anything from Ryan?""Yes.
