Filming shoot the next day. Queenie walked in with two assistants, a worried look in her face. She turned to Roxanne who was beside her to ask, "Have you tried contacting her again?" Roxanne nodded. "It's not going through. Says it's out of reach." "When I'm done with today's scene, we will go in search of her." She muttered and walked away while Audrey and Roxanne exchanged a worried glance."I think Pierce should have an idea of where she is. I'll give him a call." Roxanne said and excused herself. Audrey kept her eyes at them both. Three minutes later, Roxanne returned back to where she stood, a worried look in her eyes. "What did you get?" "He doesn't know. At this point, it's either the Baynes has her or she has been kidnapped." Roxanne concluded. "I'll go for the first. I'll give her brother a call." When the call connected, she heard Jessica yelling in the background before the noise got drawn out. "Is that Jessica?" Audrey asked. Michael Bayne, the first and only son
It took an hour before the shoot was over and Queenie walked over to them almost immediately. "Were you able to get to Jessica?" Audrey nodded. "Yes, I was. Turns out her father was the one who dragged her from the hotel she lodged in last night down to Maile." At the sound of the name, Queenie temporarily stopped walking and turned to look at Audrey. "Can you not mention that name in the future? Makes me feverish." Queenie requested and saw Audrey nod her head twice. "Thank you." As they walked out of the studio, Daryl stopped them. "I'm really sorry for the disruption, but can I talk to you, Ms. Knights?" "Sure." Queenie replied. Daryl glanced at the two ladies beside her and nodded. "Alone." Only then did Audrey and Roxanne move aside. There had been controversies about Queenie on the net after she showed up at the hote with Pierce. Many people thought she was leeching off him as they had seen and heard Pierce had gotten married. Given Queenie's reputation, they never f
In a hotel suite. The door to the suite opened and Anna Brendon walked in. She stopped as soon as she saw Natasha smoking in the living room. "I was beginning to think you won't come. And I was also preparing to execute you." Natasha said with a smile. Anna breathed out and hurriedly said, "I've been doing what you sent me. Her manager already despises her and I also leaked the whereabouts of Jessica to her father. As we speak, he has dragged her back to Maile." Natasha seemed impressed. She got off from her chair and walked towards Anna. "I have something else for you." She said as she walked past her. Anna looked down at her bump as she followed behind Natasha. "This fake bump, how do I go about it?" "You'll continue carrying it. Pierce has seen you like this, I can't afford for him to suspect you. Unless you're ready to die." Just like Natasha thought, Anna went silent. "I'm happy you understand. I need you to go back to Maile." "Maile? I just came to Hiltonia! You prom
The phone in Queenie's pocket vibrated repeatedly, hinting to her it was an incoming call. She tried to ignore it the first time until Roxanne nudged her. After sharing a knowing look with Roxanne, she took out the phone and narrowed her eyes at the number. It was a text. A text from Jessica which read, "I got the manager of the place to come clarify the issue. Thank me later by accepting something I will bring for you, tonight." Queenie sighed and turned to Audrey who stood a little farther from her. She mouthed some words to her and the letter turned and walked backstage again. When she emerged, she pushed a man in his early fifties forward. Queenie smiled at the camera whilst pointing a finger at the man. "This man is the owner of the doppelgangers company. And right now, he will tell us of his identity and lots of you are free to check his identity online." As soon as she said that, the majority of them fished out their phones, ready to browse. "Tell us who you are." Queeni
"You lost him!" Audrey screamed at Roxanne. Roxanne shrugged and stared into space. That face, she didn't think she'd be able to see it again. "You let yourself be distracted when you were supposed to be protecting Queenie. You let the imbecile escape! Now where do we start?" Audrey rambled on and on. "I know you're upset but I think we have a greater threat." Roxanne finally said. The day was a Saturday and the movie shooting was finally over. Queenie had returned back to Pierce because of her protruding stomach and also because of the ordeal that happened at the studio. The internet had also been clarified about the whole issue and the fact someone tried to kill Queenie was now a trending hashtag. "Who I saw is a longtime enemy of Queenie. She doesn't even know how to handle trivia matters as Alicia, how does she intend to handle him?" Audrey walked towards her and pressed a book to her chest. "That is why we are here, to protect her. Your job is to find out where this threat
The Knight's Villa, MaileLucian was in an online business meeting when Pierce's call came into his phone. He disregarded it the first time until a text message came in as soon as Pierce's call ended. The simple sentence made him spring up from his chair. He looked towards the camera. "This meeting has been adjourned." Then he needed the call and picked up his phone to call the pilot of his private jet. "Get to the jet in ten minutes and prepare to head over to Hiltonia." Before he walked out of the house, Jacob stopped him. "What could be so important that you had to postpone such an important meeting to attend to." "The psychopathic daughter you adopted is testing death. If you don't do something, I'm afraid this will be the last day she'd live.""What could she have done to get you to enraged to the point that you deem it fit to kill her!" Jacob questioned again, staying stagnant on Lucian's way. Barely holding his anger, Lucian spat out, "Your adopted daughter found Natasha
Two Weeks laterQueenie's eyes flew open when she heard the door open. Pierce who was going through some papers turned to look at the bed hearing her move. His eyes glistened when he saw the woman's eyes wide open. Abandoning his paperworks, he rushed to her side. "Are you alright?" "I'm fine." She replied croakily. The man's hand moved to the beside table where there was a filled glass of water. "Here." She accepted it and gulped down the entire glass in less than ten seconds not surprising to the man. "What happened to me and how long have I been unconscious?" She asked after she became clearheaded. The question was one that the man had prepared to answer from the day she went unconscious so it didn't come as a surprise to him. "You visited your therapist but then realized that her aim was to scam you through hynosis. When you realized, you tried to leave but she did something which knocked you unconscious. We brought in so many doctors to examine you and they each assured m
"Your injuries aren't that deep. Take this twice everyday, don't forget to change your plaster any time you have a bath." Dr. Fox instructed handing Roxanne a container containing drugs. Roxanne nodded obediently but the man who knew her like the back of his hands, warned her seriously, "If you don't take it, your injuries will cover up but will keep hurting from the inside." Then he turned and walked away. As soon as he left, Audrey entered. "I'm guessing you should be a little bit better now. We have something to tackle." She sat on Roxanne's bed and opened the laptop she had walked in with, as she typed on it, she informed, "I've had some of my men go in search of Natasha since that day. They hadn't gotten a single sign of her until yesterday when I received a picture of her." "They've seen her." Roxanne concluded. However, Audrey shook her head. "She left me a message on his phone. Apparently, she knows she's being sought for. So she killed one of my men and recorded a video
Pierce walked out of the bathroom with a towel tied loosely around his waist. Queenie who had been sulking on the bed raised her eyes to say something but it got stuck in her throat seeing his chiseled muscles.It also occurred to her this was the most intimate she had ever been with Pierce. Her body heated up at the thought of that and she groaned in displeasure. She was supposed to be angry but she was horny instead. Pierce had no idea what was going on with her but he did notice her frown deepened every passing second. "Queenie, are you alright?" He asked slowly and she snapped out of her thoughts. However, she ignored him. The man chuckled to himself and walked to the clothes he had taken off before going to have his bath. He took out something and handed it over to her. "Just like I thought, you were the one with the diary." She mumbled as she took it. "Yes. I came across it once in her office and decided to take it. Unfortunately, when I read the part regarding the formula,
Velon managed to get them through the corridor undetected. Queenie practically limped the whole time but quietly. However, just before they got to the elevator, they saw a green light and froze. There was someone inside. There was no time for them to decide as the elevator dinged open and Henry walked out of it. His face scrunched over when he realized what was going on and he immediately raised an alarm. "Who are you and who gave you the go ahead order to move them?" His sharp voice echoed throughout the empty corridor. Velon and Queenie felt movements towards them and sighed silently. Just like that, their perfect escape had been ruined by a lousy mouth relative. Despite her weak state, she tried to move when Velon held her back. "If you do that they'll get you again. Just get into the elevator." Upon hearing him, Henry scoffed and stood guard in front of the elevator door. Taking Queenie down would've been an impossible task but at this point, he knew she was beyond weak and
"But I still don't understand what the talk has to do with your plan with the formula for more drugs." Queenie scoffed, turning her face back to Mishael. "True. I've deviated from my storyline." The man replied, flashing an apologetic smile. "My father spent all his life's savings on Transformers because he knew he'd get more out of the product. The Transformers' drugs boost the human body. Increases things like speed, retention ability and some special abilities one might acquire as a side effect." "So you're trying to tell me you plan on doing the same thing which caused my mother to burn down the laboratory in the first place?" Queenie asked just to be sure and the man nodded. "It's called, continuing the family's legacy." Mishael enunciated and walked back to where he dropped his bottle of bourbon. "What if they don't find it?" Queenie asked as he filled his cup again. He only gave a dark chuckle. "I don't mind doing the same thing my father did." "Bring children and use the
Texas Velon returned home after being released by Queenie. He first had his son released but as he looked down at the boy, his heart skipped when he realized there was no resemblance between. "Daddy, those people took mommy away." Matt said, tears brewing in his eyes. He hadn't forgotten the sight he saw that day. "We'll go to mommy now. Don't cry." Velon consoled snapping out of his world.He grabbed the boy and took him into his arms. Just to affirm that Queenie was just messing with him, he stopped by a hospital and had them run a paternity test. "The result will be out in an hour, sir." The doctor told him. Then his eyes settled on Matt. "You have a handsome boy." "Thank you." Velon replied and led Matt out of the hospital. "The results can also be sent to your email in case you don't make it here on time. It's always more convenient." The doctor added with a smile. Finding no harm in it, Velon gave the doctor his email address before leaving. He found the police station w
Lucas and Audrey turned to see Deborah standing behind them with a smile. The most baffling thing was that they had no idea when she arrived. "How long have you been here?" Lucas asked, turning to her fully. Deborah flicked her wristwatch and stared at the time for a few seconds before raising her head again, "Three minutes. Just enough to kill you both and dump your bodies in the middle of the sea."If she was trying to scare them, she didn't succeed as they just stared at her blankly. "What are you doing here?" Deborah asked again, furrowing his brows in displeasure. "I worked for your parents. Of course I had to attend your father's funeral." Deborah replied with a snicker. "They gave you away. Frankly speaking, you don't look like you care about him." Lucas continued saying while Audrey watched silently. "You're right." Deborah chuckled, "I came to be sure Queenie won't run with the medicine she purified. It's unfortunate that Mishael now has his hands on her." "Mishael? Li
Mishael turned off his phone and turned his attention back to Queenie. David stood by the side with tears in his eyes. Just a few minutes ago, Mishael had suddenly instructed him to strung up Queenie and hit her. He had obeyed since he was hypnotized. "You know you don't have to make him watch as you hit me." Queenie who had regained her breath said. Mishael picked up his glass and walked close to her. "Then where's the fun?" Queenie sighed and lowered her head. "You do know they might not find the diary, don't you?" "Yes, I do." "That's good to know. What do you intend to do when they don't find it?" She asked and the man grinned crazily. "I intend to cut off your body parts for every hour it takes them to find it. It'll be a really unfortunate sight if they don't hand me that diary." Mishael replied, taking a slip from his cup. "I can help you find it. My mother stayed away from home almost all the time. So I made it a habit to follow her thinking she was cheating on my dad.
Knight's Mansion Natasha watched the funeral from a reasonable distance. She turned and headed back to her room when a hand reached out and dragged her into a corner. "It's me." Lucian shushed Natasha who was about to become violent making her freeze momentarily. She looked up to see her three elder brothers looking down at her with stoic looks. This was the closest she had been with them ever since they grew up. "I didn't come to cause Queenie any harm." She told them after a minute passed with none of them saying anything. However, her words were far from what Lucas needed to hear. He opened his mouth to say something. Fortunately, Lucian beat him to it. "When did you become so close to Queenie?"Natasha looked up at them silently. It was clear from the look in her eyes she wanted nothing other than to run away from them. But that only made the protective brothers curious. "I'm sorry but I'm not supposed to be discussing that with you." She told them after their gazes became
Queenie's pupils dilated as soon as she heard that name. "Now, give me the envelope." David said afterward and Queenie reluctantly gave it to him. There was no debating it. If she resisted, David would kill himself and Mishael would send someone else after her. If she still refused to hand it over, the same thing would keep repeating. David glanced at the envelope quickly before putting it into his suit pocket. Then he glanced up at her and said, "Mishael says thank you." He got up and lowered his gun. "Mishael, that bastard!" She groaned, trying her best to rein the anger within her. How Mishael had manipulated David to be so stupid was what baffled her. "Give me the gun." She told him but the boy shook his head with a confused look. "I don't want to give it to you." "Then point it at me before I get my hands on you." David had an even more confusing look on his face when he heard her. He glanced at his gun again and tried to point it at her but realized he couldn't. "Queen
"When did you find out?" Lucas asked. "Yesterday during my talk with Deborah." Queenie replied, "When did you two get your information as well?" "Oh, from Mary Leicester. She was one of the founding members of the experiment." Roxanne retorted. Lucas also nodded in agreement. "In as much as I want to continue this discussion, I have a father and a husband to mourn. After this funeral, I'll get to the bottom of all this." Queenie sighed and got up. Lucas and Roxanne also took that as their cue to leave and left as soon as Queenie made her way into her closet. "You think she's really affected by Pierce's demise?" Roxanne asked sadly as they walked in the corridor. "I don't know." Lucas said, at a loss at what to say. Queenie had always been one who hated revealing her emotions to people. He could imagine how hard it was for her. Not only had she lost the only father figure she had, she also lost her husband on the day of her father's funeral. Anyone would be racked up with pain.
