Just as she got into the room, already getting closer to the bed, she heard loud footsteps accompanied with Eva's voice along the hallway and was grateful that she was already inside Jayden's room. Moving closer, Jessica thought it was weird that Jason didn't move or noticed that someone had just entered his room, since he was a very sensitive person."Is this how he sleeps?" She whispered, tiptoeing towards his bed. "Jayden, Jayden." She called out softly, not wanting to frighten him.She stood about six feet's away from the bed and called his name a few more times but still got no response. "I think I have to go close and tap him." She thought and proceeded with her plans.Jessica was very closer to the bed and was about to tap Jayden, who was all covered with his blanket and she couldn't even see any part of his body. With her eyes close, she inhaled deeply, then exhaled before stretching out her hands and placed it on his shoulder while calling his name."Wait! What!" She exclaim
"Eva! Eva! Where are you?" Jayden yelled I'm fury the moment he opened the door.Jessica was more surprised by his sudden change of mood, attitude and facial expression. A few minutes ago, he was quite calm even though she had pissed him off by entering his room without his permission, he didn't shout at her the way she expected. She was shocked by the way he reacted after she told him, she was hungry. "Why did he jump to the conclusion that I was deprived food? Well they did, like he knows what they are capable of." Jessica said inwardly, hiding behind the door so that Eva and the other maids wouldn't see her and assume that she reported them to Jayden."I'm asking, why didn't you give Jessica food to eat? How dare you starve her and my unborn child?" He shouted.The maids were so shocked by what they heard, but fear wouldn't let them say a word or even look at each other. They couldn't believe what Jayden had just said, knowing how he treated women and acted like he would never mar
The moment Jayden closed the door, Eva paused for a few seconds trying to process what had just happened. "I thought he was going to get a gun, why the sudden change of mind?" She asked aloud, staring blankly. "Ohh, that bitch is in there." She shouted, laughing out as she walked towards Lillian who was still on the floor, struggling to stand up as none of the maid would help her because of fear."B*tch! Your friend is in there. First, she reported you to Jayden and watched him do all this to you." Eva said, pretending to be pitiful as she crouched down beside, tapping her back gently."You, come over here and help her. Kate, get her a doctor to treat her wounds. The rest, go and get the food Jayden asked for." She shouted. Eva was so happy with what just happened, she had intentionally blamed Lillian knowing she was Jessica's friend. She wanted Lillian out of the house, so that she can manipulate the other maids to carry out her plans towards Jessica. Now, Lillian was going to be en
That night, Jessica couldn't sleep and continuously rolled on her bed with her head filled with what Jayden told her before leaving his room. She thought of the possible things he would likely ask her so she wouldn't be taken off balance. The fact that his lawyer is going to be present, made her heart skip and she silently hoped that it would be nothing serious and something she could deal with. She was still thinking with different scenarios playing in her head until she finally dozed off.Lillian was eventually attended to by a doctor and her wound was properly dressed and cleaned. Just as the doctor was done with her and was clearing up the equipment he used, Eva began approaching them, like she had been waiting for him to be done all this while. As she got closer, she immediately wore a pitiful look and pretended to care."Oh Lillian, I'm so sorry about this. You don't deserve this pain." She said, placing her hand on her hairs gently."It's fine ma'am, I feel better now thanks
The first light of dawn filtered through the curtains as the chirping sound of birds flying across Jessica's window woke her up. With a soft exhale, she stretched while squinting her eyes. Her hand instinctively found its place on the swell of her belly and a smile appeared by the side of her cheek but it vanished the moment she remembered last night incident. Slowly, she rose up from and sat sat uprightly on the bed but it suddenly felt like her head was being hit from behind and the pain was excruciating. Jessica closed her tightly with her face squeezed while enduring the pain which began to reduce. "This headache is terrible" She said out and proceeded to stand up the moment the pain seized. While walking to the toilet, Jessica took a glance at the clock and saw that it was past 10, she immediately remembered she had a meeting with Jayden and his lawyer. "I need to get ready shit" She said and hurried her pace. About her an later, she was all dressed up and was ready for the
Jayden stared at Jessica's lips, squinting his eyes slightly as he was getting impatient of waiting to hear her response.He didn't know why he considered the second offer, rather than the first bit he didn't want Jessica to seem like she was an hostage here in his house. "I guess I after all find out if she actually ever felt anything for me or she is just filled with hatred for me." He thought, not removing his eyes from.her for even a second as she continuously avoided looking at him.For a few minutes, Jessica seemed to be out of the world. Her eyes were fixated on the ceiling and her mouth slightly opened and it seemed as though she wasn't breathing, like she had suddenly froze. "Jessica?" The lawyer called out."Call her with respect." Jayden blurted out.The lawyer swallowed a big gulp of saliva and cleared his throat severely before saying, "Ma'am Jessica, ma'am Jessica" His voice grew louder this time but she didn't reply him. He rose up from his seat and quickly took a gl
As Jayden walked towards his room, he tried convincing himself that he didn't need Jessica around him and all he needed was his child. "I don't give two fucks about her anyway." He muttered to himself as he turned the door knob, entering his room. "How could she think of abandoning her child after five years just because doesn't want to stay with me? What sought of mother is she?" He asked, before jumping on his bed.Suddenly, his phone began to beep out loudly and he was reluctant to answer it the call coming in, but the caller was persistent and wouldn't stop calling.After a few seconds, he decided to check who the caller could be. He slided his right hand into his hands into his pocket, struggling to take out his phone. "Fuck!" He shouted on seeing the caller."How could I forget you were arriving today? It's all Jessica's fault." He said, jumping out of the bed immediately and walked hurriedly to get his car key from his drawer.As he was descending down the stairs in a hurry, h
"Don't interface Jessica, I beg you." Jayden responded without apologizing to Dave who was looking at them. "That's the more reason why I can't remain with a man like you forever, you should really learn how to treat people right." Jessica said and looked away with her arms crossed across her chest. "Sorry about that hm" "Dave, my name is Dave love, thank you for apologizing on behalf of my cousin. By the way who are you?" He asked curiously. "She isn't your love Dave, don't ever call her that else you will regret it." Jayden threatened with his face squeezed. "Also, I do the Introduction when I want to, mind your business Dave." "Calm down cousin, you still haven't change. Thank goodness I would be leaving in two days time, can't deal with this toxicity. I preferred when we were much younger." He said resting his back comfortably. "That's because, I was only nice to you." Jayden retorted. "I'm Jessica." "Oh! What a cool name." Dave said smiling profusely. "Yeah, thank you."
“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
