"What?!!!!" Justin was extremely shocked. " I don't get. How was he responsible?" Justin asked.
" I'll tell you" Ana said and wiped her tears.FLASHBACK........." Ana, Ana, Ana," Alex called." Yes Alex" Ana replied walking out of her room with her protuding tummy ( she was eight months pregnant as at that time)" What did you prepare for breakfast?" Alex asked." I made tea and sandwiches" Ana replied." And why did you prepare that?" Alex asked." The doctor has advised I always have these for breakfast. He'd given me a food timetable which would be good for myself as well as the baby" Ana replied." Are you crazy?" Alex asked with a slap across her face." Aaaaaaaaaaaaah" Ana cried in pain." And why are you crying? Did I hit you?" Alex asked dragging her by the hair." No, no. You didn't" Ana replied crying" Then can you explain to me why you are crying?" Alex asked before pushing her which made her hit her head on the table." Aaaaah, aaah, my baby" Ana cried holding her stomach." Miss" Veronica ran to her and made to help her." If you help her, then I'll make sure you'll be the one I hit next" Alex said threatening to hit her." But sir, she's in a lot of pain. We have to help" Sonya chipped in and the other maids gathered." Stand aside or you'll never be able to stand again" Alex said and they stood aside." A.... Alex, my baby. My....my baby" Ana groaned in pain holding her stomach.Alex moved closer to her and bent over so his face was closer to hers. " Does your stomach hurt? " He asked." Yes" Ana nodded." Should I get you some water?" Alex asked." Yes"" Monica, get some water" Alex ordered and Monica brought some water." Here you go sir" she said and gave him the water." Here you go sweetie" Alex said and poured the water on her face." Aaaaaaah" Ana screamed." Don't you want water anymore? Since you only care about your baby and yourself, then I'll have to teach you to care about others" Alex said and dragged Ana by the hair upstairs." Alex please, let go" Ana cried. " Let go"" Keep quiet!" Alex yelled and gave her a slap. At this time, they were both at the last staircase." Alex please my baby. My stomach hurts" Ana begged." Keep quiet!!" Alex yelled and pushed her off the stairs." Aaaaaaaaaaaaah" Ana screamed as she fell down the stairs till she passed out." Miss" the maids screamed as they carried her." Weakling" Alex sighed and left." Come, let's take her to the hospital" Monica suggested." First get her conscious." Melanie said" I'll go get the water" David said and left." Be fast!!" Veronica yelled." Here you go!" David said and gave the water to Erica.Erica quickly splashed the water on Ana and she slowly opened her eyes." My baby, my baby" Ana cried." What's wrong miss? Tell me" that was Veronica." My baby" Ana cried. Her forehead was now bleeding." Miss, you're bleeding. Let's take care of you first." David said" No, my baby!! My......." She passed out." Let's get her to the hospital"AT THE HOSPITAL......" Doctor, how is she?" Sonya asked." She has regained consciousness" the doctor replied." Can we go see her?" Erica asked." Yes but I have bad news. Where is her husband?" The doctor asked." He's not here doctor" Melanie replied." Okay but please let him try and get here soon" the doctor said and left." Let's go see her" they said and ran into her room." Miss" Veronica said and embraced her." How are you miss" they asked." Veronica, I can't feel my baby. Why can't I feel my baby anymore? Answer" Ana cried." Ma'am please calm down" the nurse said." I should calm down? I don't feel my baby anymore and you expect me to calm down?" Ana asked. " Tell me what happened to my baby, tell me. I wanna know. Te......."" You had a miscarriage" the doctor walked in." No no no. You must be joking right? I couldn't have had a miscarriage. Please tell me you're joking" Ana cried. " I have carried this baby for more than eight months and I'll soon be due for delivery so she can't be dead"" I'm sorry Mrs Hamilton, we tried our best but we couldn't save the baby" the doctor said." Aaaaaaaaaaaaah" Ana screamed.BACK TO PRESENT" oh my goodness. I'm so sorry for your loss" Justin said consoling her." It's alright" Ana said." I promise you, we'll get Justice for the death of your baby alright?"" Alright" Ana said." Now please smile" Justin said giving her a reassuring smile." Yes" Ana said and gave him a light smile.************************************************FEW DAYS LATER....." Welcome home miss" David said." Thanks" Ana said." Wow wow wow" Alex said clapping as he walked down in his white shirt and crazy jeans combo." Alex?" Ana was scared." So you finally come home? I thought you were going to spend your whole life in the hospital" he said and chuckled." Sir, she......" Veronica wanted to defend Ana but she received a slap from Alex instead." Alex!!" Ana screamed as she gave him a slap." Miss?" Everyone was shocked." Just because you can hit me and get away with it doesn't mean you can do the same to my best friend and still get away" Ana said fearlessly." Did you just
" Ana" Justin called and went after her." Don't follow me" Ana cried and ran into her room while Justin followed her." Ana?" Justin called before locking the door and going to sit beside her on the bed. " Are you sad"" Justin!!" She put her head on his chest and embraced him tightly which made tendrils of her hair to fall on his face." Why are you crying?" Justin asked rubbing her back." I'm a terrible person Justin, I am" she cried.Justin just admired her. He inhaled her scent and was dazzled. " How can someone smell so nice despite coming out from a lock up?" He asked himself." Tell me, am I such a terrible person?" She asked. Tears welled up in her eyes, causing those ocean blue eyes to glisten." No Ana, you're not." Justin said. Her hair had now covered some part of her face so Justin tucked her hair behind her ear so he could get a better view of her beautiful face.Ana kept on saying things that Justin couldn't hear. Not because she wasn't loud enough, but because he was
Justin could not believe his eyes and ears. Did Ana just get Alex released? The man who had always assaulted her? Someone who killed her baby? Did she just release the man who landed her in the hospital? All these thoughts ran through his head. Here he was planning of keeping Alex in prison while he made Ana his but she ruined everything. He cursed inwardly and sighed." Thank you Justin for giving me the go ahead. I couldn't live with the guilt of having being responsible for my husband being put behind bars" Ana said as she held Alex's hand.Justin looked down to their hands and couldn't help but feel extremely jealous. He'd fallen head over hills in love with this woman and she didn't know." So this is what she was talking about earlier" he thought to himself. " Thanks dude" Alex said and walked over to Justin. " I promise that from today going forward, I will treat Ana with enough love and respect"Justin looked at him with disdain wondering what Ana saw in him that made her ge
" Alex?" Ana walked in. Lucky for Alex, he was backing her so she couldn't see his face which gave him time to change his facial expression." Ana?" He turned to look at her." I thought I heard you laughing?" She asked moving closer to him." Me? Maybe you heard wrong. I wasn't laughing but you know what?" He asked holding her by the waist." What?" Ana asked, shy." I'm very happy today. Today, things can finally go to normal. There will be no more assaults or fear between us. There will only be love" he said not letting go of her " Really?" Ana asked smiling. " Will there really be love between us?"" Yes. Only if you'll forgive me for all I have done to you" he said." Yes, yes, yes. I forgive you" she said excitedly. " I love you Alex" she said and embraced him in a tight hug." What a fool she is" Alex thought to himself. " If you think I'll forgive you for putting me behind bars, then you're wrong. I'll get back at you, even if it's the last thing I do but first, I'll have to
" food is ready!!" Ana said as she walked in with a tray containing two plates, two spoons and a bowl of noodles." Wow, so quick?" Alex asked, helping her keep the tray on the table." Yes. Noodles are not great deal" she replied smiling.Alex proceeded to seat on the bed. " I didn't know that" he said and gestured for her to seat beside him.She sat beside him and placed the tray on her laps." I was thinking we should go out for dinner, what do you think about that?" Alex asked." I think it's a good idea" she said and handed over a plate to him which contained noodles." I just think it's a way for me to say sorry as well as thank you for all I've done to you" Alex said and ate." Hmmmm, I'll go get ready'' Ana said and made to get up." No no, finish your food first" Alex said and she sat to eat.While eating, they chatted and discussed on so many things which made Ana feel happy that she got Alex released." Melanie" Ana called as she put the plates on the tray." Yes miss" Mela
" I'm ready" Ana said. She walked out in a red gown which stopped on her knees. It was flay and off shoulder. She put on silver heels and had her tied in a ponytail while some tendrils stuck on her face." How do I look?" She asked Alex." You look beautiful" Alex said." Thanks. Why aren't you changed yet?" Ana asked sitting beside Alex on the bed " I'll go get ready now." Alex said. He took out a purple shirt and a pair of blue jeans. " Wait for me downstairs, I'll be there in a sec"" Ok" Ana said, smiled and left." Ugh" Alex puked. " I hate this woman with passion. I'll stop at nothing until I make her life miserable" he said.He took some water and went into the bathroom.************************************************" Veronica, can I talk to you?" Alex asked calling Veronica aside." Yes sir" she walked over to him." Listen, while I'm away, I want you to take care of the house, alright"" Sure thing sir. " She said." Come on Ana. Let's go" Alex called." Sure. Let's go" A
" aaaaaaaaaaaaah, my head" Ana groaned in pain as she held her head in pain.She looked around the room and noticed that she wasn't in her room. She stood and made for the door, staggering. Suddenly, she remembered that she had gone out with Alex. She retreated and proceeded to the bathroom, hoping to find him and get a reasonable explanation from him. She checked the bathroom but couldn't find him. She saw her dress on the floor and that was when it dawned on her that she was not putting on her dress but she was only on her bra and panties. She quickly took her dress and put it on before staggering out of the room to go look for her husband.************************************************In another room, Alex was seen naked in bed with another woman who seemed to be in her late twenties." Wow, I never knew you were so good in bed" she said, looking at his below." I know. I've got a good brother" and they burst into laughter." You know, for someone who is being feared in all of c
" oh my goodness!!" Monica exclaimed." Who could have done such a thing?" Erica asked no one in particular." Did you see anything? Like the face or..... Just, anything that can help us to find ma'am" Sonya asked. At this point, she was the only one thinking of Ana in a sensible way. The rest were just being unreasonable." I..... I, I....." Veronica was feeling dizzy, clearly an effect of the sedative. " It was the martini guy, Justin" she said before passing out." Vero...... You take care of her, I'll go inform sir" Sonya said. She ran out of the room in such a hurry that she didn't see Alex walking in, causing her to bump into him." Are you crazy?" Alex yelled." I'm sorry sir" she said and made to leave. " Sir" she called, realizing that she'd just bumped into the same person that she'd being on her way to call." What?" Alex asked coldly." It's miss"" I wonder what could have gone wrong with that woman" he thought to himself and hissed. " What's wrong with her?" He asked, r
“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
