Fredrick woke up to some noise going on in his office. “What's going on here?” He asked Elias's right-hand man, as Elias was nowhere to be seen in the room, just three of his trusted men. The whole room became quiet, he scanned the room and saw Lucy standing close to his desk. “Lucy, what are you doing here?”“Nothing just came to check on the progress of the team.” She answered walking towards Fredrick. “I decided to supervise their work as you were sleeping, but since you are here, I will take my leave.” She pecked him and left, not without throwing dagger with her eyes at Elias's right-hand man. “What caused the uproar?” Fredrick inquired when he was sure Lucy was out of earshot. “She demanded we tell her our findings.” “And?”“That will be going against your command sir.”“Good for you.” He walked towards his deal and sat down. “Did they call again?”“No sir.” “I can't sit here and wait for them to call me whenever they wish.”“I suggest we lie low for now, because this we
George was about to run crazy when he didn't receive any reply from Frederick, he checked the rooms, and they were all empty and dusty like no human had ever lived there for years. Frederick stood up and carried his bag to leave. “Mr.Davies, can you at least say something to me?”“What do you have me say, isn't it obvious don't tell me you are dumb.”George stared into space, finding it difficult to believe what just happened. “No no, this can't be.” He yelled out. He stood rooted on his spot, when his phone rang, all he heard was a peal of laughter from the other end when he picked up the phone. “I warned you, but you didn't listen.”“No no, please don't hurt, is it the money I will double it please.” “I think it's too late for that, I'm sure you will be dying to hear her voice, should I put her on.” He giggled. “Oh, I forgot it's not like you have much of a choice, here listen to her voice.”“Baby girl say something to your daddy and boyfriend, they are so eager to find you.”
“She insisted on coming over.” George told Frederick when he got off the call with Nana, who insisted on coming to over. They tried to persuade her, but she refused to listen to them.“Ok, when is she coming?”“Tomorrow.” The whole team has been working tirelessly, coming up with a different strategy on how to go about their rescue action. They had everything set up, and worry their backup plan in case their next location ends up futile. Tomorrow night happens to be the night they plan to swing into action.Lucy hasn't spoken to her daughter after the encounter they had in her room, she has been beating herself over her daughter's words. She made up her mind to make it up to her children.“Who is there?” Clifford asked from his room.“It's me.” He recognized the voice to be his mother’s. “Come in.” He watched her walk into his room, he sat up waiting to hear what she wanted to say.“Clifford I know I haven't been the best mom to you, I did a bad job as a mother, I don't deserve the
Just be positive.” George told Frederick as they got ready to leave in the night to rescue Brielle, their plan had been going well so far, they were able to get their location and had their men around, the kidnappers were surrounded but they weren't aware of it. “Should we proceed?” Frederick asked the team that was on the bus with him. “Yes.” He stepped out of the vehicle with George approaching the suspected building. “Please try and protect her.” Frederick said to George. “We will save her together.” “Things might go haywire here, it doesn't always go as planned.” George stared at the old man and continued walking towards the building. INSIDE THE BUILDING.“Please don't do it.” “Baby girl, this is all your father's and your lover’s fault, they should have adhered to a simple instruction bamboo, but no they want to be superheroes.” He let out an evil laugh. “But you see where that got us now.” Since the day her father and George tried to rescue her and failed, the kidnappers
“Can we talk now?”“Not yet, you aren't strong enough.”“Whether I'm strong or not doesn't matter in this situation, I need answers.”“Ok, I understand you are curious, but it's for your good, maybe tonight you will get all the answers you seek.”“No.” “What?”“I need answers now, please.” She pleaded with him. “It's been three days now, I'm strong enough.” They were still in the middle of their discussion when the maid brought in her food. She finally found out that she wasn't in the hospital but in his house and that her father didn't know where she was.“Eat.” “I'm not hungry.” “Let's not make this hard, just eat we will talk in the night when I get back.” “You promise?”“Yes.” She took her spoon and dug into her food. Her day went on like a repetition of the last three days, eating, sleeping, and reading, she hadn't been able to outside but just peer through her window to see what the sky and the outside world look like. She hasn't been able to go outside because of how weak
“My grandmother, she will be worried to death about me.”“OK, when would you like to go see her?”“Maybe tomorrow.” “I will arrange for that.” “Thanks.” The following morning. “Again.” “You have to feed your worms before you leave, please.” She gave him a doey eyes, which he couldn't refuse, he was confused about how she got him to do things he didn't do. He sat down at the dining grudgingly and dug into the plate of omelets. “Thanks.” He mumbled as he went to the kitchen to drop his, Brielle was doing the dishes. “The driver will take you to the terminal when you are done.”Brielle was coming downstairs when she saw a young man approach her. “Maam are you ready?”“Are you the driver?”“Yes.” “I'm ready let's go.” Thirty minutes later they got to their destination. “Maam we are here.” She alighted from the car and was surprised when she saw Noah standing beside his car.“Oh, you are here.” She mumbled to herself, confused about what he was doing here, maybe he was here to
“I will miss you.” Nana said as Brielle was ready to go. “Same here.” They hugged each other so tight. “I can't wait to find this person, then there won't be any course to hide again.”“I trust you, you will find the person.” Her phone chimed. “Nana, I think is time for me to go.”“Bye, please be safe.”“I will, and you too take care of yourself.”The driver was waiting for Brielle outside, he took her to the terminal where Noah was waiting for her. She wasn't happy with the rush, but she couldn't do anything about it, she wanted to spend more time with her grandmother. She approached Naoh when she saw him leaning in his car and waiting for her.“Sorry for wasting your time.”“It's okay, let's go.”“Hope your meeting was successful?”“Yes.” He started at her for a moment. “So how was hour visit to her, hope you enjoyed it?” He asked trying to know whether she would spill to him that she met another person. “Seeing her made me realize that I missed her more than I thought.” She gaz
“So how do we go about this?” Brielle asked Noah as they discussed on how to catch the culprit. “Do you by any means see their face, or know their names?”“No, they only called each other some weird names.”“Which weird names?”“Like Pee, Kanta, Clausa, I can't quite remember the last name.”“Ok, I think this is, according to you, you were kidnapped alongside your father, but there was no trace of him at the hideout when they came for your rescue.”“How sure are you?” “The news is only one dead body was there, which be linked to one of the kidnappers.” “So what are saying?”“See it from my perspective, how did he escape them, and they didn't look for him, and he didn't bother to save you, which kind of father is he?”“Maybe that's because I'm their main target, not him.” “You don't get it, do you, okay let me make you understand more, why didn't he come back to rescue you, or get in touch with George or Davies, since he knows their base? And why has he been in hiding?”Brielle l
