Senior Bleak looked at Josh for some time then stood up abruptly."What do you mean you can't find Alex? But you all went to her apartment together? How come she is missing?""That's it, grandfather, she forgot her phone and went inside to get it, and when we could not see her come out. I went inside to go check what was keeping her but could not find her. I found another door that led outside her apartment and I believed her kidnappers used that door." Senior Bleak nodded and picked up his phone, the next second, he was on a call with Silas. "Silas, has Luke come home since?""No boss, I have not seen him."That was the information he needed so he hung the call and stared at Ander who was almost at the point of breaking down. Senior Bleak gave him a reassuring smile. "She will be found, you don't have to worry." While Senior Bleak suspected that Luke was the one behind the kidnap of Alex, Mr. Jackson solemnly believed that Stacy was the one behind it. The truth was, Sta
Mr. Jackson stared at his daughter. If Luke did not kidnap Alex, then Stacy sure knows something. His daughter couldn't be innocent but again, what was with Luke? He changed. Senior Bleak shook his head. Ignorance will always be food for the fool. Sons and bustards. He chuckled despite that they have got a situation at hand. Josh could not contain his anger and made to leave but his grandfather called him back. "I had thought of involving the police but decided against it, there is a man who would know someone. He was once working for Stacy Jackson and Luke Bleak. He might know something. Silas is on his way with him. I invited him over." "Grandfather, we can't just stay and wait for him to say he knows something. What happens when we are here arguing and Alex's life is being stuffed out of her." "I think Josh is right," Mr. Jackson agreed with Josh. Ander could not understand why he had to be there and his sister is in danger. Ander was helpless and didn't know w
The lady stood by the side as the doctor examined Alex. The doctor arrived 30 minutes later. He was done checking her Alex, he turned and looked at the lady "Ma'am who is she?" "I don't know, Sir but my boss will know.""There is a substance she inhaled and she is allergic to it. She has an allergic reaction. I have prescribed some drugs and you could get them for her at any pharmaceutical store. After she takes it she will be okay and tell your boss to watch out for next time or you tell the lady when she wakes up to be careful next time." The doctor said and left immediately. She called her boss back to give him feedback on what the doctor said. "Sir, he said her passing out has to do with something she inhaled. He gave me names of some drugs to get and make her take them." Her boss listened as she talked and after she was done, he sighed. "Is she awake now?""No," the maid responded."Okay then, go purchase the drugs. Tell Fin to take you and make sure she is comforta
The driver of the cab Alex was inside was bent on getting to the nearest hospital on time. He was afraid, praying that she should hold on until they get to a hospital. Alex could not hear him because she was far gone. Darkness was all that she could see. She could hear voices but the force pulling her was so strong that she gave up on consciousness. Finally, the guy sighted the nearest hospital, Morris, and drove in. It was not a hospital for the elites but she could manage for the life of her. The guy believed that it was only the elites that could dress the way Alex was dressed. By the time Mad arrived at the hospital, Alex had been admitted and a doctor was already attending to her. He was not surprised that the cab driver driving Alex took her to the hospital, she might have passed out in his cab. Max came into the hospital looking around. A nurse sighted him and walked to him. "Are you lost, Sir?" "A sister of mine was admitted here, this lady."The nurse stared
Alex stirred and groaned. Her head was pounding seriously. She opened her eyes and closed them back and then opened them again. She was in the hospital. It was a relief a little but how did she get to the hospital? The last thing she could remember was running out of that big iron gate. "Is she safe from her kidnappers?" She wondered and turned around. All the people that matter to her were seated looking worried. "Josh!"Josh raised his eyes to look at her. He literally jumped to his feet and hugged her but not too tight. He did not know if she was hurting anywhere. "Alex, thank goodness," Josh muttered and took her hand in his and then kissed it. Senior Bleak could only smile. He was so happy that his daughter in law is back. Ander was happy beyond words. His sister finally woke up. He knew it was not so serious but dammit, anything that has to do with his sister is really serious. "Welcome Sis, we were so worried. Don't ever go missing next time." "I won't," she replied and as
Alex was back in the house before evening. Silas was sent to bring her and Josh back home by Senior Bleak's order. She was better and there was no need for her to remain in the hospital so she was discharged. Senior Bleak and Ander had waited for them outside and when they arrived, the duo were ushered inside by Senior Bleak and Ander. Ander was all over Alex, he was so happy to have her back. Now that Alex was back home, Ander thought they could open the box. He touched his pocket to see if the key was still there and it was. Due to Alex's kidnapping, everyone forgot that Josh had burns and he did not even remember, himself, or maybe it was because he was almost healed. So while the three of them were inside Josh and Alex's room, Ander brought up the topic. "Sis, don't you think we should check the box now if you are fit," he said with so much hope in his eyes."Of Course I am fit, let me get the box."Alex said and went to bring the box. The suitcase from Miami was still as th
Josh had to laugh. This is the funniest joke he had heard today. Despite the situation at hand, he found Luke's words amusing. "Oh, now he is your grandfather? You are so funny, my dear brother. The last time I checked he was not your grandfather either." Luke narrowed his eyes at Josh, "what do you mean by that?""Well, you heard me right, since he is not my grandfather, he is not yours because I can remember vividly well that you are my younger brother." "Well, for your information, go and ask the man you claimed to be your grandfather who you are." Josh didn't know if he should take Luke's words seriously or not. Luke was probably high on something and he was talking out of point so there was no meaning to what he was saying. "If you think I am lying, ask grandfather," Luke added when Josh went silent and crushed the remainder of cigarettes with his foot and then puffed the smoke on Josh's face. "You and your parents are not supposed to be called the Bleaks. Excuse me, I think
Luke met Josh on his way out and scoffed,"I see the good grandson has been told the truth. It's a pity that he is not who he was told he is. Life is such a player." Josh grinned at Luke, "it's only losers that whine unnecessarily. Whether I am a Bleak or not, it changes nothing. It does not change the fact I have achieved a lot on my own. It does not change the fact that I married the best woman in the world, it still does not change the fact that I have a loving grandfather who will choose me ten times over you. Get a life, Luke, you don't go about fighting for what you did not have a clue how the story started. Oh! you want to claim the Bleak's will? Who cares anyway? Do you think grandfather is too dumb to let you ruin his years of hard work all in the name that you are a low grandson of his? I bet you, he would entrust all his properties into the hands of a stranger than to entrust it in your hands." It was not a lie and Luke knew this but still, he thought Senior Bleak doe
