“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
Brielle stared at the sleeping child, she looked so adorable. She was interrupted when someone walked into the room. “Who are you?”“I'm sorry, are you the one taking care of her?” “Her mother.” “Oh, I'm a friend of your husband, I thought I would be able to see him here.” “He isn't here.”“Do you know where he can be?”“No.” She answered in a harsh tone. “I'm sorry to disturb you, but can you give me his number?” The woman gave her a suspicious look. “You just claimed to be his friend but you don't have his number.”“I lost my phone, and I have been looking for him since then.” The woman kept quiet, as she was cleaning up the sleeping child. “Please can I have his contact, I have work for him, and I know he needs one right now for the hospital bill.” This made the woman raise her head and gaze at Brielle.“Which work?”“Can I just have his number?, that's why I came looking for him.”“No, just get out.” The woman half yelled.“OK ok, you don't need to shout, I will leave. But
“You shouldn't have done that.” “Don't come close to me.” She said flinching the knife. “You are a psychopath, I'm not here to hurt you, I'm only here on Noah’s instruction.” She lowered the knife when he said that.“How do I know you are lying?” He leered at her. “Can you get the first aid kit, is at the fourth top cupboard on the left.” She gave him a side glance. “That's still not enough for me to believe you.”“Can you just get it, I'm bleeding.” She saw his murderous and cast a look at his hand and saw his blood dripping on the floor. She ran to the kitchen, following his description, and saw the first aid kit, that was when it dawned on her that he must be close to Noah to know where it was.She went back to the living room and saw him sitting. He snatched the box from her when she got closer to him.She watched him attend to his injury, she felt guilty. “Can I help you?”“So you will cause another damage or maybe this time stab me with scissors, no thanks.” “I didn't mea
Brielle was at the door listening to the conversation. She was confused when he referred to her as Noah’s girl, but more confused about what he meant by plan B. She was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't know when the door opened, and she lost her balance, falling to the ground, but Noah caught her. “Have you been eavesdropping on us?” He asked her.“Hmmm, I'm sorry I didn't mean to eavesdrop, I was just curious to know what was happening.”“You know I would have told you later.” “Yes, I'm sorry I allowed my curiosity to get hold of me.”“It's okay,” Ben said a few words to Noah and took his leave. “You already heard everything, so I don't think there is any need to update you about it.” “Are you angry?”“No, but you didn't have to eavesdrop, you could have incurred an injury.” “I'm sorry.”“It's okay.”“Do you mind if I ask a question?”“Anything but what you heard in here.” She gazed at him. “What do you mean by plan B?”“Anything but that I will answer.” He said busy wit
“What!!?” She gaped at him. “I'm sure there is another way out of this, please it's not late. She is just an innocent girl with no idea about what her father did.” She continued rambling on why Noah shouldn't go on with his plan. “Can you just stop it?” He said raising his voice. Brielle was shocked when he raised his voice. “Do you think I'm doing all this because I want because I want to make you happy, all I get is you making me feel like a bad person huh, you think I feel okay holding her hostage, but I got no choice because all I ever wanted was for you to be happy, but no I'm a monster in your eyes.” He stormed off. Brielle watched him leave the office. “Shit, this isn't the way I wanted things to go, what's all this?” She cursed out. IN NEW YORK. “Did he find him?” George asked Michael as he entered his office. “No, I think someone must be helping hide.”“And that can only be one person, the master miner of the whole incident.” “And again the person knows her well enou
