Chapter: Chapter Twenty -ThreeThe hotel where the gala was being held was surrounded by a lot paparazzi photographers and media vans. Selena found herself clinging onto Asaiah’s arm as he led her towards them. She could feel her nervousness increasing ever so slightly with every step.“Just a heads up for you.” Asaiah whispered to her. “I have never attended any event with a partner before so these people are definitely going to follow you around now and then.”“What?” Selena said surprised. “Just for being your partner?”Asaiah chuckled and nodded. Selena sighed when she remembered that the Parkers were famous people. Living with them and seeing them a lot just made it slip her mind. What also slipped her mind was the fact that Asaiah was not the type to stick to one woman and he probably chose not to go with part

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-TwoSelena hadn’t the slightest idea when she had fallen asleep. She did not even remember getting into a car with Asriel or how she ended up on her bed.However, she did remember that she had followed Asriel to Lanes Street and had somehow been noticed along the way.She also remembered a name that she knew might be connected to Asriel.Larry Smithson.Whoever this Larry was, Selena knew for a fact that he was going to be a major clue.She sat up on her bed and reached straight for her phone in her bag. She smiled when she saw all her missed calls and messages from Darral. She dialled his number and he answered immediately.“And where the hell did you disappear to? Weren’t you supposed to text me your coordinates? How dare you get back to me this late! You probably had so much fun that you just decided

Chapter: Chapter Twenty-oneSelena was thankful that Asriel had not given much thought to how and why she had gotten to work so early in the morning. She ran to the car park and got into the passenger seat of a car and strapped herself in. “Follow that car.” She said to Darral who just to happened to be the driver. “I missed you too Selena.” Darral said with a fake frown. Selena put on her seatbelt and threw a sharp glare at him. Just who id he think he was to start messing around when they had an important task to do? Darral smiled teasingly as he started the engine immediately pulled out of the parking lot and got on the road. Staying four to three cars behind Asriel’s car, they followed him until he stopped in front of Plato’s restaurant. “Could he be stopping for a meal this early?” Darral asked. &n

Chapter: Chapter TwentyAsriel stretched his arms and back as he walked down the stairs of the house to the living-room. Because of Emmanuel’s therapy sessions, he had missed three days worth of appointments, paperwork and reviews. Knowing Asaiah, he probably took the fact that Ariel was not breathing on his neck as a chance to slack off. He knew he had too much work to do.Deciding against having breakfast at home, he walked out of the house. Because it was quite early, Asriel chose not to wake up Zach from his well deserved rest. Selena on the other hand did not deserve any rest after getting him kidnapped from his own room.As he walked to his car, he pulled out his phone and dialled Selena’s line. To his surprise, she picked up on the first ring.“Hello and good morning sir.” She said cheerily. She even sounded wid

Chapter: Chapter Nineteen"Will that be all?" The waiter asked Selena and Gina as he finished writing down what Gina had just ordered. "Yes, that will be all. Thank you." Gina said smiling while Selena just nodded. The waiter bowed his head. "Very well then." He turned to leave but stopped and stared at the flowers in the vases that were on each side of the door as if he had seen something displeasing. Gina and Selena watched him in confusion as he muttered to himself angrily and started rearranging the flowers. It only took him two minutes to finish his task after which he smiled like he had just won the lottery and left quickly. The flower arrangement did not even look any different from the way it was initially. Gina rolled her eyes. "What a perfectionist. The flowers do not even look different."

Chapter: Chapter EighteenSelena looked around Emmanuel Scofield's living room in awe. It's main decor was flower vases and paintings. There was a large portrait of Emmanuel's family. His wife and three daughters had bright smiles on their faces. Emmanuel was holding a sleeping baby boy and was smiling too."Mr Scofield's house is beautiful, right Zach?" Selena said to Zach who was seated on the couch in the same room. When he did not respond, Selena grinned at him."Zach, do not be such a cry baby. I only beat you once and yet you are acting like I am the worst person alive."Zach glared at her. "You promised to not speak of that to anyone.""And you promised to be a new friend of mine." Selena said with a pout and her arms crossed. "So friend, isn't Emmanuel's house lovely?"Zach sighed and looked away. He was stil
