Hi guys, what do you think Sofia is up to? Is it just a payback as she claims? Do you think she has a plan for her action? Let me know what you think. Lots of love ❤️❤️💓
"Apologies Mrs Kate, I had to take care of some matters urgently." Xavier said, as he marches into his office to meet Evelyn and her waiting for him.Mrs Kate stood up, alongside Evelyn, and she shook hands with him. "It's okay, Ms Evelyn explained everything to me, I don't mind waiting.""Thank you. Please have a seat." Xavier gestured, she nods and sat down, then he continued. "You mentioned over the phone that you had something in mind. What could that be?" He asked, and crossed his legs, his back rested on the chair, while he twirls slightly."Ahh, yes, I want to thank you for the project, your team did a wonderful job. Also, I passed by the boutique, and did some survey. I love the design, I don't know if it's possible to get something similar to that.""Mrs Kate, that won't be a problem, Mr Xavier here chose the design after what happened, but there are other designs that are superb." Evelyn responded, and she turns to Xavier for confirmation."She's right, I picked out the desig
Nate ease his steps on the stairs holding his car keys, playing around with it, as he head to the parking. He got to the living room, and halt when he saw his father where he left him an hour ago.They had a little discussion regarding the interview Sofia had with the reporters, and it seems it got stuck on Antonio's mind.He has been thinking there's no way for her to be that bold without proof of what she said, but Nate has told him countless times that they're trying to get to them, she has nothing on them."Father, don't tell me you're still here? I have told you to stop getting worked up, this is just a way to get to us."Antonio dropped his hands from his cheek's and adjusted his body upright."How can she be so sure we did it? When there's no proof? I think her father must have backed her up, thinking there's something he can use against us.""Father, we did it, and you know that, but she can't do anything, when there's no evidence." Nate responded, quoting his last word, with
Charlotte marched to the door, she pushed the door open, and came into view with a housemaid."Good morning Ms, breakfast is ready. The boss asked me to come get you." The maid informed her, and spun around to leave. Charlotte closed the door behind, and followed the maid downstairs.Lorenzo moved her from the room she was locked up in, and gave her a big room inside the mansion. At first, Charlotte fought for her release and asked him to let her go, but he refused.She realized Lorenzo is fond of her, for even thinking of offering her a big bedroom inside his mansion. She accepted, with the thought of buying enough time so that she will think of a way to escape. And ever since, he has been treating her like an egg.She walked into the dining, the smell of toasted bread hit her nose, and it made her mumbled some words to her ear alone."Do you always have to wait for the maids to call you for breakfast." Lorenzo asked, as he took a bite from his toast bread."If you want me to work fo
Xavier arrived at the company with a dull expression. The thought of his girls mad at him still makes his heart throb and restless.He stepped his leg out of the car, and strode to his office, thought piled in his head. Immediately he stepped into the lobby, the receptionist hurried to him, which made him halt when he noticed she was coming towards him."Welcome back, boss, a lady named Alley is here to see you. I asked her to go to your office, but she insisted on waiting here." She informed him, and his eyes began to wander the vicinity."Alley? Why would she insist on waiting here? Where is she? Please ask her to come see me."The receptionist nodded, and strode to the corner she had been waiting for him."Ms Alley, the boss is back, he asked to see you." Alley helped herself up, and stride to him. She was looking disheveled, a bit pale, and unkempt.'What's with her features? Why is she pale?' Xavier thought, deep in his heart, he wasn't happy with her looks."Good day Mr Xavier,
The manager jerked the door open, before anyone could respond, and marched into the room."Boss, your nephew is outside causing a fuss, and the reporters are all over the building." She breathes out.Xavier hurried to his sliding window and looked down through it. He saw Nate surrounded by reporters, with the security barricading his route."You should go hear him out, he is just as stubborn as his father, he won't leave when he knows you're inside." Mr Xi said."Father is right, let's go out, and send him away before it's too late." Bryan added.Xavier nodded, and turned the door, his hands buried in his pocket. When he got outside, Nate hurried towards him with his hands out to punch him, but the security held him back."You bastard, do you think I will let this slide? This is your plans not to hand over the documents. I promise to get my father out, and also get this company."Xavier did a sign, and the security let go of him. He closes the space between them, and the reporters too
"I don't believe your nephew, he might be lying, I'm sure he is telling lies. How could you believe him, he just wants to poison your mind, don't you think?" Arya stood her ground, her words not changing.Jane, who has been seated with them sneered in her heart, watching Arya Poison his mind.If only he wouldn't listen to Arya, and have a thought about what Xavier told him. She believes there's no way his uncle would send his father to the police with a false accusation.She watches as Arya tilted her head closer to Nate, staring at him as she waits for him to speak up."I don't believe him either, there's no way Sofia would have done it, I have a video of her, she knows I can use it on her, she wouldn't dare act funny."A smile tugged at the corner of Arya's lips, as she rejoices in her heart. She just wanted him to believe her so that she wouldn't do what he asked of her."Exactly Nate, that's why I said you can't believe him, but if you still want me to tail her, I will do it." She
1:30amCharlotte felt like she was beaten with a big stick, she was weak after singing at the bar. She never expected to be at the bar from 8pm to 1am, when that's the time she was supposed to be sleeping.She couldn't believe how some married men came to the bar fooling around with girls old enough to be their daughters. It was disgusting to her, but she couldn't do anything about it.She heard the car came to a halt, and snapped out of her thought to see they just arrived at the mansion. Charlotte did not wait for the chauffeur to put off the car engine, she quickly dropped out of the car.And just like someone whose being chased, she ran into the mansion, and was lucky to meet Lorenzo on the couch sipping from a glass of alcohol.Lorenzo hurriedly looked at the direction, when he heard someone barged inside without his consent. "Did you kidnap me because you wanted to use me? What the heck do you take me for, Mr Lorenzo?" Charlotte unleashes the anger she held inside.Lorenzo dro
For the part five minutes, Mr Xi has been staring at his reflection in the mirror with a guilty conscience, until he heard the door crept open, and he diverted his gaze to the door to see his wife holding his briefcase.A wide grin spread on her face as she strides closer to him. "You look extremely handsome today, it's been ages, you dressed up like this heading to the office." Margaret complimented, and dropped the briefcase down, before fixing his collar."Thank you honey, I never thought this day will come again. But somehow I love the feeling that I'm heading to the office."Margaret had a smile on her face. She patted his shoulders lightly, and picked the briefcase."It's obvious you're happy, don't get too excited, when Xavier gets better, you will have to stay with me at home for a full week.""That's not a promise, I will make sure I do anything for you." He knew it wouldn't be possible, but had to agree not to drag the conversation."Okay, let me see you off downstairs." Ma
ONE YEAR LATERToday marks exactly one year since they lost Antonio. Also, Mr Xi's sentence ends today. Xavier, Alex, and the girls stood outside the prison waiting for him to stride out of the gate.They stood there with smiles on their faces waiting for him, and soon the gate slowly crept open, expecting him to march out, but no one came out.Zarah spun to the back, and looked up to Xavier, "Daddy, why is no one coming out?" She asked, perplexity laced over her face.The other girls quickly turned around with the same look, waiting for his response. "Ahh, I'm not certain, but let's wait, if he doesn't come out in the next five minutes, we will go inside.""There he comes…" Hilda yelled, pointing at him, and they all ran up to him with excitement. Alex and Xavier beamed, turned on their heels and followed the girls behind."Good morning father." Alex greeted, and Mr Xi let go of the girls, and pulled him into a hug."Alex, I'm thrilled to see you are in good health, your father must b
The Lawyers defended their client's base on the little evidence they got, and there made up stories. It went on for about two hours, and the judge's just listened, while writing down some note.Thirty minutes later, the lawyer's rested their cases. The magistrates whispered to themselves, and one of judges cleared his voice to talk."Before I give my Verdict, Mr white, I have a question for your client." He said, and continued."Mr Salvador, the evidence we have here shows that you murdered Ms Arya. My question here is: What was her offense? You were keen for revenge, what those her death got to do with your revenge?"Salvador's lawyer abruptly stood up to defend him, but one of the judge's quickly hit the desk to shut him up."The question is directed to your clients and not you, sit down." The lawyer respected himself, and sat down while they waited for him to talk.Five minutes into waiting, Salvador couldn't utter a word. He has so many regrets, even after everything, he did not su
TWO DAY'S LATERThe incessant knock from the house gate got Charlotte's attention from the girl's room. She paused and listened, to be sure it was from their gate, but the knock never came, which made her shrugged and got back to picking out clothes for the girls.Immediately she was done and turned to them, she heard the knock again. She dropped the clothes on the bed, and strode out of the room, heading to the balcony at the last stairs. You can see whoever is at the gate standing there.Charlotte got to the balcony, and came into view with Sofia and her mother standing close to the gate, and it made her heart skip. But then, the guards were outside, why were they not doing anything about it? She thought.She hurried to their bedroom, and pushed open. "The gate, she's at the gate with her mother." Charlotte rushed out.Xavier furrowed his brow's, and marched close to her. "What are you talking about? Who's at the gate? I have been hearing the knock, why are the guards not doing anyt
The girls ran up to Alley, and pulled her into a warm hug, which she instantly reciprocated. As soon as jasper reached out to her, and told her the girls were back with their Dad, Alley couldn't keep calm, and had to hurry back to the house."I have missed you girls, hope you're not hurt?" Alley asked, and they bobbed their head in response. She disentangled the hug, taking a look at their body, one after another, to be certain there's no injury on them."You must have been excited, it hasn't been long they arrived, but you're here already." Matilda said, watching her as she continues to scan their body for injuries."I miss them, Aunt, I couldn't wait to see them. Where is best?" She asked, and halt when she realized she has not seen her."They are upstairs, you know how she behaves, she got mad for missing him too much." Matilda responded, shaking her head. 'Charlotte still acts like a child' Matilda thought."I thought as much, she couldn't stop crying her eyes out. Girls, I brou
The day went by quickly, and it was almost time for their plane to depart. But before then, Xavier made sure his girls were looking neat, and clean. He bought clothes for everyone and got the cab driver a new car after selling the one Pablo came with to Miami.Xavier went far ahead, and made a second attempt to convince the cab driver to come with them to California, but he still declined. After much persuasion, he gave up and asked for his house address instead, which the driver gave him."It's time to get going, girls, are you ready?" Xavier asked. "Yes Daddy." The girls chorused excitedly."Alright, let's get going, Pablo, guide them to the plane, I will join you soon.""Bye Grandpa." They waved at the cab driver, and Pablo bowed his head in respect, before they marched to the plane."I wish you would come with us, I booked you a flight already, all you have to do is join us.""Mr Xavier, I have told you no amount of persuasion will make me change my mind. Thank you for everything
Xavier stood at the edge of the cliff looking at the giant's soak in a pool of blood. He blinked his eyes, and tears ran down his cheeks as he thought of what his daughters must have gone through.He spun around, hurried towards them and pulled them into a hug for the second time. "How are my angel's doing? Do you have any injuries? Are you hurt? Are you starving?" He rushed out, the tears still running down his cheeks.The girls disentangle the hug from him when they heard him cry. Mariyah cupped his face in her hands, and used her thump to wipe his tears."Daddy, you are a hero, you're our superhero, why are you crying when you came to save us?""I'm sorry I came late, I don't know what I would have done if I had lose you. I don't know what I would have told your mom. You girls are all we have, I can't be separated from you again. You all are my life, you are all I have gotten.""But Daddy, we are fine? You saved us. At first, we were scared this will be the end of us, not until y
The nine hours drive finally ended, though they arrived late, it was already 10am. The cab driver brought him to the hotel the GPS directed them."This is my card, that's my number, please be patient with me until I get my girls back. I will fly back to Atlanta and make sure I pay you."The cab driver looked down at his card and back to his face. "I don't think it's necessary, just give me the wristwatch, that's enough for my payment."Xavier looked down at his watch and back to the cab driver. "I'm sorry I can't give you a broken watch, if you want the watch as your token, I don't mind buying a new one for you."The cab driver stretched his hands down to his, and pulled out the watch from his hands."Don't worry, I will get it fixed, you can go now, you have to save your kids."He spun to his left, pulled out a knife from his chair, and handed it to Xavier."You don't have a weapon with you, take this, you have to protect yourself."Xavier collected it with a thank you, and stepped o
"I can't believe all this has been happening, and neither you nor father told me. How could you consent him to go out there without back-ups?" Bryan was disappointed in his parents, they kept such thing away from him.He had his doubt in days, and went ahead to contact jasper, who told him the girls have been kidnapped, and Xavier was out of California to go find them.Margaret could barely talk loud, this pass few days have been hectic for them. "Bryan, don't tell me you took the night plane just to come question me about this?" She mustered the courage to speak as loud as she could."Common mother, I have every right to question you. You call me every day and each time I ask you about him, you tell me he is fine.""I had to do that, I can't tell you what's happening, besides your father said not to let you know. How is that my fault?"Bryan heaved a loud sigh, he thought as much, it was all his father's idea, there's no reason for his mother not to tell him what was going on with th
A loud growl slipped through Xavier's lips, as he felt someone hit a heavy object on his legs. He scrunched his face, chew the pain back trying to help himself off the floor.Xavier pressed his hands on the floor for support, slowly lifting himself up. As soon he was up, the object landed on his legs, but this time he didn't growl or cry in pain.His head and legs ache extremely, but he will himself to stay strong, even though he kept feeling the legs were being ripped out of his body.Xavier lifted his head up, with a squinted eye, not able to see clearly. He opened his eyes more, and came into view with a silhouette of some men in the room."Were you planning to keep sleeping? Don't you have to save your daughters?" They mock, scanning his features disdainfully.His head was banging, but he ignored, and slowly snapped his eyes open fully. He saw three men standing in front of him, barricading him from seeing the person behind them."Who are you people? What do you want from me?" He
