It was now dark but Elena, Ana and Jessica were still running for their lives.

" Mum, I don't think I can run anymore. I'm so tired" Elena said as she sat on the floor.

" Come on Ellie, we have to keep running because they might catch up with us" Ana said. She couldn't deny the fact that she was also tired or that her legs ached but she couldn't risk her children just for her rest.

" How about this, let's go into the mall and rest for the night and in the morning, we see where we can go?" Jessica suggested.

" Yes mum, please!" Elena begged and Ana had no choice but to agree. She decided to get them some food but when it was her turn at the counter, she realized she didn't have any money on her. She remembered that she'd left the money at Alex's house when he kidnapped her. They didn't have where to sleep, they hadn't showered in days and they hadn't eaten either but they didn't have any money to do any of those things.

" Come on" Ana said as she led them to the female restroom in the

    EIGHT YEARS LATER....In the kitchen of a five star restaurant, a chef is seen slicing. Every slice she makes depicts elegance and as she stirs the food, one could marry her just by seeing how beautiful she looked doing so. As she moved around the kitchen to grab some items, one could tell that she had a very beautiful face ." Wow Melena, you're looking very beautiful today" an eight year old girl commended." Sweetheart, you saw me this morning and I think I know what you want" the chef said with a smile on her beautiful face. " It's in the freezer, you can have it" " Really melena? Well you should also know something. Whenever I compliment you, you should know I mean" the eight year old girl said as she rushed to the freezer to get the bowl of ice cream. She licked her lips as she watched the chef finish what she was doing." Brie, I'm done with the food. I've chopped the onions, only add it in exactly thirty minutes from now. Not a minute sooner or a minute later" the chef said a

    Elena was in the kitchen with Brianna, they were making sure they'd gotten everything right because the centenary anniversary was in three days and they needed to make a name for the restaurant. She brought Gabriella along, not because she didn't trust Jessica but because firstly, she wanted to spend time with her and secondly, she was scared of what Josh would do to her sister." And the tomatoes? Make sure they're delivered in two days. I don't want any mistakes" she said and washed her hands before bending to Gabriella. " And you my princess, what do you want to have for lunch?" She asked." Pizza?" Gabriella said and winked." Okay, I'll place an order for Roni"" No, i don't want pepperoni today. I want cheese" she said." I thought you're no fan of cheese?" Elena asked." Yes but since you love it, i love it too and today, i wanna have pizza with the best mum in the world" Gabriella said and hugged Elena." I think I've got an idea"" What is that?"" You'll see" she said and ga

    Daniel could not help but smile inwardly, not only was she beautiful, she was also mannered even though he thought it weird that at twenty one, she'd never had a boyfriend , she could also cook and she was independent. She wasn't like Nikita who carried her father's money around like it was hers." So, do you only offer snacks? Food, anything" he asked, trying to strike a conversation with her. Who'd have ever believed that the cold CEO in the person of Daniel Norman would have ever been so desperate to strike a conversation with a woman." We do, if you want, i can ask them to get it for you or you could take it for lunch. I don't want you having food that could cause you food poisoning" she said before realizing what she'd said." How do you know about that? Did you take me to the hospital?" He asked out of curiosity." Um.....i don't know what you're talking about" she said, trying to avoid the conversation." You do. Few days ago, i was admitted to the hospital and the nurse refu

    The anniversary was going extremely well, it was almost time for Elena to present the soup and it needed to be reheated. Meanwhile, Daniel needed to make an urgent phone call. He stepped out and then he saw Elena and he couldn't help but admire her. It was when he was busy admiring her that he noticed something strange, the gas pipes......" Elena!!" He yelled as he saw her take out the lighter.Hearing him yell, Nikita frowned, " come on you damn lover snatcher. Light it up and light up my place in Daniel's heart" she said as she saw Daniel still screaming.She stared at Elena and from the look of things, Elena couldn't hear Daniel scream her name and she crossed her fingers, severely hoping that it would have exploded before Daniel got to Elena. Just as Elena lit the gas cooker and it exploded, she felt someone drag her and she fell to the ground, landing on top of him.Nikita smiled to herself. “Yes!”“Oh my goodness!” The guests screamed as they rushed to the kitchen area wher

    Daniel slowly opened his eyes to see that they were still trapped in the fire and the first thing he did was call Elena’s name. “Elena!” He called as he rushed to where she was “please open your eyes “ he told her as he shook her face, his hand still on his bleeding headElena slowly opened her eyes, “D..Daniel, my Gabriella, where is she?” She asked weakly“She’s fine, just get up” he told her as he helped her up and they started looking for a means of escape, together.He put his hand around her before helping her walk, “just a step at a time, it will be fine “ he told her in pain. It was obvious he was in more pain, his foot and his head was injured but he didn’t care, he cared more about Elena than he did himself .By this time, the media has already gathered outside the building on fire and they were busy saying different things.“We’re now here at the supposed venue for the Norman’s centenary anniversary but it seems that event is not holding as there has been a fire out break

    She coughed as she slowly opened her eyes to see Daniel on top of her and for some reason, she didn’t feel the resentment or inconvenience she felt whenever any man was close to her and she couldn’t explain why.“Are you alright?” Daniel asked her as he helped her get up “Yes I am, thanks” she said as she coughed. She had regained consciousness but the smoke was still bad for her, she was having a hard time breathing in the smoke.“Come, I’ll help you!” He told her as he extended his hand and she stared at him, why was something in her suddenly telling her he was to be trusted? Why did she not feel resentment and disgust towards him? Why didn’t she have recalls of what her father had done to her when he was this close to her For the first time in her whole existence, she smiled around a man and she stretched her hand and he helped her get up.“Thank you” she told him with a smile as he wrapped his hands around her and she stared at him, this was the first time she didn’t feel rep

    “Come, everyone must be worried about you “ Daniel told Elena as he tried to lead her out of the water but she tripped.Apparently, she’d hurt her foot.“Ouch, my foot “ she winced in pain as she bent to hold on to her leg.He stared at her, she always looked cute no matter her expression. “Come, I’ll help” he told her and before she could say anything, he put his hand behind her and carried her bridal style out of the pool. As he carried her out of the pool, she couldn’t help but stare at him, why was she so engrossed in this man? Why did she find herself staring at him so much? What was wrong with her now?“Stop staring, your eyes might hurt” he told her and chuckled.Embarrassed and unexplainably flustered, she looked away as she rested hee head on his chest. His chest just felt so muscular and she felt like it was the safest place she could be in at the moment.. As Daniel carried her past the back of the building, Elena started hearing weak screams, bangings and pleads from a

    Nikita swallowed deeply as she turned to Mrs Norman who was standing at the door, ready to hear what she had to say. She bent and picked her phone before putting it in her pocket. “Oh Mrs Norman, you’re here. I was about to come see you even” she said with a smile as she walked to Mrs Norman, ushering her into her room.“I asked you a question didn’t I Nikita? Who do you want to get killed?” She asked and Nikita ticked her hair behind her ear.This was definitely not her day. First Gabriella heard her plot, second Daniel risked his life to save Elena, third, Elena didn’t die and they found Gabriella who they were now alone with in the hospital and now, Mrs Norman had overheard of her plot to kill Gabriella.She chuckled slightly as she placed her hand on Mrs Norman’s laps, “why would I want to get anyone killed? Do you really think of me as such a girl?” She asked as she feigned sadness. “I always thought I was like a daughter to you and I never thought you would ever suspect me

    “No! Elena!” Daniel yelled out of his lungs as he watched her traveling down to the ground.He felt his world shattering into a thousand pieces and for the next minutes, all he could do was sit back, with his head buried to the ground.Tears poured out of his eyes like an ocean and for the first time in his life, he felt like a failure.He couldn’t even save the woman who he claimed to love so much. “Elena! Where is she? Did she…”, Gabrielle said as she went towards the edge of the cliff and realized that Elena was no more there.She fell back to the ground and let out a sorrowful wail, hitting her legs on the ground intently and screaming her sister’s name.Daniel got a grip of himself and stood to his feet. Elena had made him promise to take care of her sister and inasmuch as he was broken, he needed to stand there for her.“It’s okay”, Daniel said with a soft voice as he tapped her calmly and pulled her into a warm hug. Gabrielle sobbed on his chest just as they awaited the arriva

    “Elena!” Gabrielle shouted on top of her voice the moment she walked into the scene to see Elena who was now soaked in blood.Elena was barely standing firm, and with each step she took backwards, she was at the verge of falling down the cliff.Jessica quickly turned to look at Gabrielle and immediately, a small scoff made way to her face.“Get out of here!” She said to Gabrielle who couldn’t believe her eyes.Gabrielle ignored her and made to run over to Elena, but Jessica shot her.Luckily, there were no bullets left in the gun. Jessica knew that she was at a big risk at this point. She swiftly dropped the gun to the ground and dashed out of the premises, ignoring Gabrielle who was crying or Elena who was close to falling off the cliff.“Elena!” Gabrielle rushed over to Elena to grab her. Unfortunately, she wasn’t fast enough because in that minute, Elena fell off the cliff.Gabrielle let out a loud scream that shook the entire area. Tears poured out of her eyes as she tried to calm

    Elena had seen Jessica and suddenly felt a glint of hope in the situation. However, the moment Jessica had taken down the men, she faced the gun to Elena.At first, Elena thought that Jessica was only trying to joke with her and at this, she started laughing out in elation. However, Jessica remained still, without a single iota of excitement on her face.“I’m not here to save you”, Jessica suddenly said, with her hands touching the trigger.Elena was shocked to her bones as she stared at Jessica who had just made the utterance that broke her heart.“What do you mean?” Elena asked as she started walking closer to Jessica who had tears in her eyes.“What do you mean by that? You are not here to help me?” Elena asked again, not wanting to believe what Jessica had just said to her.“I meant what I said. I’m not here to save you but to end you!” Jessica bluntly replied, causing Elena to stare at her in shock.Elena chuckled calmly to conceal the anxiety in the atmosphere, but she quickly

    Elena smiled in relief and walked into the room, feeling so glad that her sister was safe and looked fine.She made to untie her from the chair, but just as she was almost done with that, she heard the cocking sound of a gun, right on her head.This made her stop right in her tracks, with cold shills running down her spine.Gabrielle had tears running out of her eyes as she watched Elena who had a gun pointed to her head.“Don’t move or that would be your end!” The voice said and again, Elena’s stomach twisted in fear and anxiety. She gulped down hard as beads of sweats started forming on her forehead. The room looked empty and the last things she expected was the appearance of someone with a gun.Daniel was standing outside, at some distance away. Elena had been faster than him and all he could do was slowly walk up to meet her while studying the environment and checking for any threat.Just then, he caught sight of someone entering the house, with a gun in his hands. His heart skip

    Daniel stared at Elena who was now trembling, with her phones in her hands that were barely steady. He needed no one to tell him that she had just received a very bad information.“If you are looking for her, she just got kidnapped”, Elena went through the message again, with tears pouring out of her eyes.Jessica stood beside them, with her hands folded to her chest and her face wearing a look of confusion.Elena started sobbing almost immediately, increasing the intensity of her cries as seconds passed. This made Daniel’s heart ache terribly. At this, he went over to her and hugged her passionately, placing soft kisses on her neck.“We would find her…I promise you that”, he said with a tone of assurance, even if he had no idea of how that was going to happen.“How? There are no clues anywhere. They just took her away and we have no idea of who they are”, Elena sobbed while Daniel hugged her again.Jessica slowly walked over to her and pulled her into a warm hug too.“We would find

    The news was devastating that for some minutes, none of them could utter any word. Elena fell to the ground and broke into loud sobs while Gabrielle followed suit.Daniel returned from his walk and once he met them in that state, he needed no one to tell him that Jessica lost the child.He held Elena up and tried to console her. But then, that didn’t seem to work so much since Elena blamed herself for every single thing that happened.“I shouldn’t have ever known Josh! It’s all my fault”, she cried out while Daniel patted her on her shoulders.He was enraged as well. At this point, he wished that he would come across Josh and give him the beating of his life.“We should go see her. You have to be strong if you need her to be strong. She is the one who is going to be more affected by the news”, Daniel said to Elena who nodded her head in understanding.After what seemed like ages, she finally got a grip of herself. They walked into the hospital room where they met Jessica who was curre

    Chaos erupted in the atmosphere the moment Jessica landed on the ground. In a split second, her head started bleeding and she was barely conscious. Elena let out a scream of distress while Josh took to his heels, not looking back for even a second. They called for the ambulance and immediately, Jessica was rushed to the hospital. Once they got to the hospital, Jessica was rushed into the emergency ward and this placed both Elena and Daniel in a state of panic.Elena couldn’t withhold her tears at this point. She suddenly started crying aloud the moment she recalled the sight of the blood that oozed out of Jessica’s head. It was terrifying that for a moment, she was beginning to have fears that she might lose her.“Stop crying!” Daniel said as he pulled her into a warm hug.It was a difficult time for him as well. He never thought that the day would turn out to be one where he would get such a heated confrontation from Josh. In addition, he didn’t know that such a thing would happen

    Elena was the first to run off to meet Jessica. She had never felt so scared all of her life. She had tears in her eyes as she tapped her calmly, hoping that she would stand up without any issues.Everything was currently happening because of her and she couldn’t help but feel ashamed and guilty. “Jessica!” Elena called out the moment she observed that she was laying on tue ground, looking lifeless and unconscious.Josh scoffed when he saw this and walked back to Elena. He took her hands away from Jessica and pushed her away.“Let her be! We have our situation to solve here”, Josh said, without a bit of feelings or emotions in his eyes. Elena couldn’t believe her ears. She gazed at Josh as she tried to wonder how he could be so heartless even if he was the cause of everything that had just happened. “Can you hear yourself? You caused all of these and yet you stand there and ignore her?” Elena asked unbelievably as she returned her gaze to Jessica who was still laying on the ground.

    Elena was burning in rage at this point. She couldn’t understand how Josh could be so stupid to spew out such kind of things against Daniel.“Not another word from you, Josh!” She screamed out of her lungs, trying so hard to stop the tears that welled up in her eyes.She was truly exhausted at this point. The worst laid in the fact that she could barely look into Jessica’s eyes.All she felt was guilt and she needed no one to tell her that it would take a while to recover from the guilt she felt.“Daniel! You must be feeling like a super hero now. You’ve got a lady supporting you and willing to do anything for you”, he said and started laughing softly. He stopped midway and wore a big scowl on his face.“But I promise you that you won’t get her! Elena belongs to me and you are only wasting your time!” He said to Daniel who wore a scoff and folded his hands to his chest.Jessica felt that the world was currently turning. Her head was banging heavily and somehow, she struggled to keep
