Luke sat calmly inside the white limousine taking him to meet the man who had given his name as Mr. Wills. It was unusual for Luke to trust strangers but he found himself trusting the man, his urge to know what the man meant by a trip to the past was his driving point. On his way back from the airport, he decided there was no need to go back home so he concluded by seeing the man and getting it over with him. "Sir, we are here," The driver's voice brought Luke back to reality. Luke took in the environment and found out it was an open local football field. "What kind of a meeting place is this?" He wondered The guy who could not stop shining his eyes as if some people were after him, hurriedly got down and opened Luke's side of the door for him to get down. Luke could not register what was going on until the limousine was out of sight. The guy had dropped him and zoomed off without any info on how to locate Mr. Wills. "Hello, Luke Bleak, we meet again for the third time.
Alex lowered her eyes and saw where Josh got the question he asked. Her dad had asked the photographer to write their names under each person. "Oh! that?"She said and smiled."I don't know why dad had to give Ander and me the same name. It's weird why I am answering Alexandra and Ander's full name is Alexander." She replied and Josh creased his bows. That's a funny way of giving names, it was not that Alex and Ander are twins. Alex was older than Ander by two years if he was not mistaken so why give them the same name? "So how do your parents call you for you to know you are the one being called? I mean, how do you both know when you are being carried?" "Well, it's not difficult, that's why I am called Alex and he is called Ander," she responded and Josh grinned and then scratched his head. "I should have caught this since. Too bad I suck at puzzles. Well let's not just stay here, we came here for something, let's get to it.""That's right," Alex smiled and turned to
With a shaking hand, Alex picked up the paper and saw something else. It was a photo. She ignored it and looked up at Ander and Josh to see their expressions. It was neutral, the look of surprise on their faces had disappeared without a trace. "Alex, show us the content in the letter, whatever is written in it will help," Josh said and held her hand to show her that he was right beside her, it was all she needed at the moment, his nearness. She nodded and unfold the paper. She creased her brows when she found out that the notes were written on code and she kind of didn't understand it. Josh thought that whatever was written in the paper must be of great importance for it to be written in code. "Can you decode it?" He questioned Alex who continued to stare at the paper. "No, I can't but I think Ander can because Dad taught him how to read codes," she replied. "I do?" Ander asked, he was shocked. He couldn't remember if he had ever been taught how to read codes before. "Yes
Getting outside, Alex suddenly halted."What is it, sis?" Ander asked her, he was the first to notice Alex was not following him and Josh."I forgot my phone inside, let me go and bring it," she said and ran back inside her apartment while Josh and Ander went into the car to wait for her. Josh shifted uncomfortably when Alex did not come out after a minute."Maybe she is getting some of her things as well," Ander gave a reason why Alex could have delayed coming out when he noticed how uncomfortable Josh was looking. Josh could not wait any longer after a few more minutes, he came down from his car and went inside to know what was keeping Alex. He got to Alex's bedroom and did not find her. He became scared. He searched all the two rooms in her apartment but could not find her. He searched the bathroom yet she was not there, he went back and also searched the room again and still, he could not find her. He called her at an interval. When he searched her kitchen and did not
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
