Jessica ignored Eva and kept on walking, the last thing she wanted is a banter or and exchange of words with Eva. She increased her pace walking hurriedly to the kitchen in order to figure out what to prepare for Jayden and his guests by evening. She couldn't bother or care less about Eva or anything she had to say."I'm talking to you Jessica, you proud maid. Who would have imagined?" She said mocking while trying to meet up with her. Immediately she got close to Jessica, she grabbed her hands and pulled closer. "I'm talking to you Jessica, I see you must have grown wings and lack respect " Eva told her."Let go of me Eva, while I'm letting you to.," Jessica said to her, trying to pull her arms from her tight grasp."Or what? Huh? If I don't let you go what would you do? Beat me or kill me?" She asked, shaking her arms."Kill you? That would be great. I will take revenge for the death of my child you and you crew killed. Shockingly, Eva laughed out loud, letting go of Jessica arm a
For a second, Lillian got scared with Hailey sudden change of attitude. She barely know anything about her and wouldn't want to involve in a fight with her or exchange words either. At that moment, Jessica walked into the kitchen, carrying the a bowl of tomatoes on her hand. "Jessica, lead this new maid to the maids room." Lillian instructed."But, you can obviously see I am" "Shut up! I don't want to hear any but, just do as I say." Lillian shouted at her. Jessica wasn't in the mood to argue nor exchange words, she turned to Hailey who was suddenly smiling again, like her smiling switch was turned on again. "Hi, I'm Hailey." She said smiling, revealing her white set of teeth."Jessica." "Hmm, You are Jessica." Hailey said with her eyes open as she kept on smiling."Yes." Jessica responded and chuckled as she began to walk. "Come on, let's go""My room is room 1" Hailey said to her."Room 1?" Lillian asked, laughing profusely. "Well , that's my room and there is no way that's your
Hailey walked away boiling in anger as she headed to the Kitchen, hoping to find Lillian and tell her about Khole. The moment she got into the kitchen, the aroma from the food Jessica was cooking hit her nose and she suddenly forgot how angry she was, besides Lillian was in the kitchen."Hi Jessica, what are you preparing?" Hailey asked with a wide smile on her face as she got nearer."Jayden's favourite dish, Pasta. He has some visitors this evening and asked me to prepare something really good." Jessica responded with a smile stirring the pasta one last time before finally putting off the cooker."That's really nice, the aroma from this food is everything. I can tell it taste really good even though I haven't eaten it " Hailey said, patting her shoulder. "You must be tired." "You can imagine." Jessica responded. "Well it almost time and they might be here anytime soon, I would go and set the table now, would you like to assist me?" "I would love to but I wanted to use this evening
Hailey was in shock by how rude Jayden was. She expected any behaviour from him because Eva had told her a lot about him and how ruthless he can be. She knew she was going to have a physical encounter with him one way or the other but she didn't expect it to be on her first day.She left the living room with a frown on her face, feeling so embarrassed. "He demands that you do it yourself Jessica." Hailey told Jessica without looking at her the moment she stepped into the kitchen. "He said that?" Jessica asked surprisingly."Well, yes he did." She responded angrily which could be easy detected from her tone."I guess people have to learn the hard way." Khole said, smiling profusely and withholding the laugh threatening to burst out."You think this is funny?" Hailey asked, moving closer to her slowly."No! Not here, Not now please." Jessica immediately said to them, pushing Hailey backwards as she took a few step forward but stopped.She took in a deep breath with her two eyes closed,
Jessica came into the dining room with Hailey and Khole. The aroma of freshly cooked pasta wafted as they entered making their mouth watering but they didn't want to show it and kept on discussing among themselves which got Jayden angry. "Why can't they keep shut? Can't they see someone is before them?" He said inwardly, staring at each of them one after the other but none of them noticed the look on his face.Jessica carried a large, steaming hot serving pasta, adorned with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and a few fresh basil leaves. The eight men seated around the table looked up from their conversations, the moment she placed it on the table with their their faces lighting up with anticipation."Sorry for the delay." She said and they only nodded their heads in unison like they wear being controlled or were suddenly dumb.As Jessica began to serve the pasta, the men watched with interest. She expertly twirled the pasta onto each plate, adding a sprinkle of parmesan cheese and a driz
Jayden turned his head slowly and kept his eyes fixed on Vic who became uncomfortable and quickly leaned his back on the chair, avoiding to take another glance at him. He immediately regretted ever asking him any questions. "Back to our previous discussion." Jayden said, looking at them and the all seated uprightly to listen to him. After about an hour, they were finally done and all stood up to leave as Jayden escorted them outside. Jayden got back into the house and began heading to his room, he looked around trying to see if he would find Jessica but there was no sight of her around. "Is she in the kitchen?" He asked inwardly, sliding his right hand into his pocket, pondering on if he should go and check up on her in the kitchen. "No no! I can't go in there." He whispered to himself while climbing up the stairs. Just then he heard footsteps approaching, he looked up and his eyes jammed with Jessica who wasn't looking okay. He couldn't figure out the look on her face yet, he was
Jayden stared at Jessica, he was speechless and did know what to say. He wanted to just walk towards the door, open it and let her out but he couldn't bring himself to. He could agree with the fact that he hadn't been treating her right recently because he was angry with himself, but today's incident wasn't included."Really? Is that what you think?" He asked in a very soft tone."Yes, wasn't it so obvious?' She replied, turning her head slowly to look at him and their eyes met. "Do you mind opening the door now, I need to leave.* "What if I don't?' He asked , looking directly into her eyes."What do you mean, a deal is a deal. You said if I tell you what was wrong, you would open the door and let me leave." Jessica said out loud, with her eyes widened."How do you get to pretend so well? Would you deny the fact that you want to stay here with me?" He said, moving closer to her as she immediately movies backwards, looking away from him."You wish. Maybe before, but not anymore." She
Jessica couldn't fanthom whatever Jayden was trying to do and how he was going to make things up ad she pondered on if she should trust him this time or just expect the worst instead in order not to get any further heart break."I just hope you aren't planning anything funny this time Jayden." she said as they descended down the stairs."Anything funny?" Jayden asked, turning his head slowly to look at her with a look of confusion written on his face, while noticing she was still struggling to free herself from his grab but he wasn't letting go of her anytime soon. "Yeah, you heard and when I say funny, I don't literally mean funny, you should understand better." she said, but this time got no response from him.Jessica noticed they were heading towards the outside door which got her even moe scared. "What could be going on in Jayden's mind?" She thought as they slowly approched his car."Open the gates." He shouted at rhe gateman, who obeyed instantly.Jayden opened the car door,ins
“Help!” Jessica screamed, hoping that there might be someone around to save her. It dawned on her that she was in serious danger as no one knew her where about. “This is all Lillian plan. ”She muttered struggling to free her legs from the driver’s tight grabs but he was holding her with all his might like his life depended on it.A few second later, she was able to free her left leg and felt relieved, knowing he would get tired and wouldn’t be able to hold her second leg for long. Just then, she felt a hand grab her hands which were holding unto the door, in a blink of an eye, she was pushed back into the car and this time, the man entered into the car, closing the door with a loud bang.“Move on, we have no time to waste.” The man said to the driver with a frown on his face.“I thought you were going to help me? Who are you?” Jessica asked boldly, struggling with the man who was still holding her hands tightly. “Help me! Somebody help!” She kept on screaming which only infuriated the
As expected, Jessica got no response from Lillian making her even more curious. She couldn’t help but think that, Lillian had a hand in all this and might probably be working with the nurse she begged Jayden to free. “Maybe, I should have just let Jayden handle the whole situation the way he wants.” She said to herself inwardly.Jessica needed no on to tell her that, the nurse wasn’t innocent, she had acted on her own will and wasn’t force to take any action. She had a new plan. Immediately, she turned back, heading towards the door.“Where are you going to?” Lillian asked.“Last I checked, you don’t need to know my where about.” Jessica responded as she placed her hand on the door knob as she opened the door.“I thought you were here to pack your things and leave forever.” Lillian shouted, rushing towards the door.“Well, plan changed.” Jessica said to herself, walking towards the gate.Before she got to the gate, the security men had already opened the gate and were all standing unt
Jessica left the hospital with her mind made up to forget about her past and move on with her life. Her mind was made up to drop the revenge and start anew like she never met Jayden, nor ever got pregnant for him and lost unborn child through poisoning.“The best thing to do is to leave the country, move to country where no one will ever mind me.” Jessica whispered to herself while getting into the taxi parked in front of the hospital.“Where are you going to ma’am?” The taxi driver asking, turning his head backward to look at her.“I don’t know but just move.” She responded, looking outside the window.As the man drove off, Jessica realized she needed help regardless and the only person she could meet right now is nobody but Williams. But then, her heart broke even more realizing that she had no clue about where he lives or the direction to his house.“That right, he gave me a card the last time I saw him. His house address was written there.” She thought aloud absentmindedly.“Yes m
"What do you mean by I should let her go, I just informed you about how she tried to kill me and you say I should let a murderer go?" Jayden asked Jessica curiously with his eyebrows arched."Yes, because I know you are going to kill her. Regardless of what she did, she doesn't deserve to die, you aren't dead." Jessica said a D turned, walking towards the woman who was on the floor, crying profusely and begging that her life be spared, but she was unable to speak out as her mouth has been covered.Jessica got close to her, she knelt down beside the woman, removing the cloth stuffed into her mouth and began patting her shoulder getting. "Calm down, I won't let you die. I'm sure you have children who are waiting to see you." Jessica told the woman, trying to wipe the tears off her face which only infuriated Jayden even more."Yes, I have just one daughter. My son was killed some years ago, all I wanted was to be able to see and free my daughter. I held she is being held hostage in his h
The woman stared at Jayden for a few seconds, contemplating on whether to tell him his daughter name, scared that he might harm her. She would prefer of he just killed her now while her daughter live. She knew so much about Mafias, Jayden could kill her right here in the hospital and still kill her daughter who doesn't have an hand in these. They were ruthless, lacked human sympathy or conscience. "What is your daughter's name, I'm sure she also has an hand indeed. She must have been the one who is giving out informations." Joe said, moving closer to the woman who was still sitting on the floor."Find out who her daughter is and do the needful." Jayden said, closing his eyes to take a good rest. "Also ask the doctor when I can be discharged. By the way, where is Jessica? Why isn't she here with me?" He asked, opening his eyes, wondering where she could be and how she couldn't stay beside him till he wakes up. "Sir, hm she is hm." Joe stuttered."I can't believe she could do this to
Everyone in the room had their eyes fixated on the woman, waiting for her to speak but she didn't. Instead, she remained at one spot with her eyes faced to the ground, keeping everyone in suspense while they ran out of patients, but Jayden seemed calm about the whole situation. "This is the last chance I will.give you woman. Who sent you? What is that you want to inject me with?" Jayden asked without moving any part of his body due the the pain he was feeling."Nobody, It's hm it's a pain reliever but since you don't trust me and she is here, let me go then." The woman stuttered and turned backwards, about to head towards the door, but Joe pushed her backwards, sending her to the ground."Oh careful, she is an elderly woman." The nurse said, moving towards to woman to help her up."Shut up! You know nothing." Joe's responded immediately and turned to look at Jayden. "Boss, what do we do now?" He asked with a stern look on his face."Inject her with whatever she is holding on her hand
"Where is the patient that was being operated on a few minutes ago? Where has he being taken to?" Joe asked the elderly woman likely to be in her early fifties sitting on the chair, focused sternly on the device in front of her. "Talk to me with respect young man." The old woman replied without looking up at Jayden."Oh, I think you would prefer the way I talk to you now, because the next time I will ask you would regret it." He threatened, looking at her without taking his eyes off for even a second.Slowly the woman lifted her head up to look and the moment her eyes caught with Joe's, she gasped and quickly looked away. " What's, what hm , what is the patient name sorry?" She stuttered."Jayden!""Jayden!?" She asked with a shockingly look on her face. "Can you tell me and if you don't know, check that device of yours." Joe said impatiently."All right. What was his condition when he was brought here?" She asked with her mouth still left agape as she began to check"A gun shot, he
Joe rose up, walking away from Jessica. Fighting his thoughts, he didn't want to suspect that she had something to do with this, else why would she be against killing the people responsible for this crime. "They almost killed my boss, in fact their plan was to kill him but thankfully he isn't dead and battling with his life, why should we not killer the people responsible?" He thought inwardly, looking at Jessica who was now sitting restlessly on the floor, while murmuring to herself. An hour later, a nurse finally came out from the theatre. Jessica rose up to her feet and ran swiftly to the nurse, holding her hands firmly. "Where is he? How is he doing now?" She shouted, like she would attack the nurse if she heard something otherwise from what she was expecting."Calm down ma'am, the doctor would be outside soon to explain." The nurse said, trying to move away, but Jessica wouldn't let her go."What do you mean by the doctor would be out soon huh, why can't you just tell me?" She y
