Chapter 101.Amanda called Gabriel on phone and explained everything that happened in the club. He expressed how angry he was with the manager and didn't blame her. He invited her over to his office so they would talk more regarding the issue and know what to do next.Amanda quickly prepared to leave for Gabriel's office. Gabriel had promised to send the address on the phone after their conversation, so she believed he would do so before she finished preparing. She checked around the house if everything was okay before walking out of her door to start leaving.When she locked her door, she remembered that he was yet to send her address so she decided to call Gabriel to remind him that he was yet to send address. She picked up her phone and was about to call him when his call came in."Hey, I was about to call you to remind you that you are yet to send the address to me," Amanda said to Gabriel over the phone."I sent a car, it should have arrived at your place," Gabriel replied which
Amanda and Gabriel left safely for his place. He welcomed her in and then proceeded to show her the guest room where she would be staying for the night.After Amanda settled in late into the night. She came downstairs to join Gabriel in the living room, she met him drinking alone while staring at nothing. She smiled and tiptoed towards him. She snatched the glass of wine and drank all of it.Gabriel looked up at her with a frown on his face."Why did you do that?" He asked her, pretending to be angry. Amanda only laughed because she knew that he wasn't angry and was just pretending to be."Oh about that, do you have to ask your guest when he or she looks like they are interested in drinking with you?" Amanda asked him."You just snatched my drink, you didn't look like you wanted to drink with me. You would have taken a glass and poured some for yourself if you really wanted to have a drink with me," Gabriel said and looked up at her smiling, pretty face.He swallowed hard and quickly
Amanda was ready to leave the next morning, she couldn't stop thinking about what happened between her and Gabriel. It took her totally surprised that facing Gabriel again would be so difficult.She thought about it all night and couldn't sleep, she least expected what happened between them, it was still a shock to her. She no longer felt safe with him and the only way to go about what happened was to leave. It was better she goes back to her apartment and bears the risk of staying in it even as the police had asked her to stay away for some time.She was still preparing to leave when a soft knock came on her door. She immediately knew it was Gabriel because there was no other person with them in the house. Her heart started racing wildly as she thought of seeing him again, but before she could say anything, he opened the door and came inside.Their gaze locked with each other before Amanda looked away."I'm sorry for what happened Amanda," Gabriel said immediately and went on his kne
It has been two days since the incident between Amanda and Gabriel while it has been a week since the club incident happened.Harvey decided to act low so she knew that Eric was already suspecting her and wouldn't hesitate to strike if she attacked Amanda again. She knew how protective he was when it came to anything associated with him, he never joked with them.She hadn't given up yet on fighting Amanda and was still very much interested as she still saw her as a threat and someone who she is meant to pull down but she decided that she would feed carefully in order not to attract Eric's wrath as she already knew that he was against her after what happened at the club.She had been restless and had been thinking that he would involve the cops and get her arrested but it made her surprised that he didn't, maybe because he wanted this to sound like a warning to her to never try out such again but she wasn't going to have that because Amanda stole what was rightfully hers.She had been
Gabriel and Amanda later left together to purchase a few things which Amanda was lacking at home. They laughed and also joked, playing like children.Unknown to them, angry watchful eyes were watching their every move. With every step they took, the angry eyes which turned out to be that of a sleek lady will sneer and imagine how Amanda was going to be killed soon if care is not taken.She hated Amanda so much because she thinks that she stole everything from her, starting from good grades in school to being a good child. It was a very unbearable thing to see and now she was happy and laughing with the man she wanted for herself.It would never happen, she vowed to herself. She felt like starting the car and running into Amanda but she held herself back. She might end up in jail for it if she is not careful.She wanted to get away with whatever that she happened to do to her, she cannot bear suffering for her sake as she didn't worth it.She watched them enter the grocery store togeth
Amanda paced up and down thinking about what to do in the situation she was in. She didn't even know what to think or who to accuse because she was still shaken. She had managed to trash the gift box away with the rat in it before she sat down thinking of what to do.She thought about calling Gabriel and telling him about it but she knew how worried was going to be because of it. So she decided not to involve him but to think of what to do alone. She couldn't even think of involving Eric because she knew he would not take it lightly and would go the extra mile in finding out who did it. That was what she was avoiding, another reason to be indebted to him again.She couldn't even eat that and started having a fever because of the shock she got when she opened the package and saw what she wasn't expecting.She went to bed early after making sure every door was locked and closing all the windows. When she lay down, she decided to call her Aunt and confide in her. She was the only person
The next morning, Amanda prepared to leave for Gabriel's place again. That was the only place she feels and sees as home. She did not think about the incident that happened earlier nor cared about it when she remembered because she felt it was an accident which Gabriel confirmed and had also apologized for.She picked up a few things as she would stay over for just two days before returning to her apartment. She made sure she made breakfast that morning as she didn't know if Gabriel would be around or not and settled down to eat it.Meanwhile, Eric had been thinking about everything going on between Amanda and Gabriel and how Amanda easily trusts Gabriel so much that she was so free with him while in return he was suspicious of Gabriel and wasn't finding him genuine towards Amanda.He was so disturbed about it that he was lacking concentration in whatever he did. He didn't know when he cut his hand with the table knife while eating and also broke a glass while trying to drink water.I
Later that evening, Amanda returned to her apartment, and she was still thinking about everything that happened with Camilla. She knew who Camilla was and what she would do after what Gabriel did to her.She didn't want such to happen, it would have been better if she walked away herself than Gabriel walking Camilla out and making it look like it was because of her he walked her out of his apartment.She had pleaded with him to allow her to leave while he went after Camilla and asked her to come back but Gabriel refused to say that he doesn't care about how she felt because it was his place and he would do the way he wants.Amanda was restless all the way home as she still thought about everything, the evil smile Camilla had on her lips when she was leaving and that deadly look. No doubt, she was a Devil incarnate and she can testify to it.She had really seen hell in the hands of Camilla and her mother that she can never underestimate them and what they can do.She sighed as she pray

ONE MONTH LATERToday was Camilla and Laura's last day at the court for their trial. They stood waiting for the judge to carry out their sentence, which happened. They were sentenced to jail for attempted murder, assault, and other things that were mentioned.Camilla stood in tears as the cops came forward to drag her away. She started wailing at the top of her voice."Please, Amanda, forgive me. I did everything I did because of greed. It wasn't intentional, please it wasn't intentional," She cried out in agony, but Amanda looked away, avoiding her. She was emotional toward Camilla."Amanda, I am sorry for everything I did. Please don't let them take me to jail, please Amanda. I am sorry about everything, the way I treated you too. I know I was a bad person, but please don't allow them to do this to me," Camilla begged on her knees.She looked up when Amanda wasn't saying anything in return. Gabriel was standing beside Amanda, she quickly crawled towards him without shame."Gabriel p
Camilla and her mother paced up and down in Amanda's private ward, thinking of what to do. They were all alone with no one with them. She thought of how to make Amanda never be awake again. They thought of switching off the machine connected to his body or removing the oxygen for a few minutes, then no one could suspect them.They didn't want her to wake up from a coma, even after miraculously surviving the gunshot wound on her chest. It was time they got rid of her.They planned to have Amanda replaced with Camilla, her sister when she got killed by them. Camilla had been interested in Eric since the day she set her eyes on him. They wanted to kill her while she was still in the coma.Amanda, who had woken up from the coma, opened her eyes. She looked around and noticed Camilla and her mother standing while talking to themselves. She didn't want them to know yet that she was awake so she quickly closed her eyes."Mother, if we are to do anything, we should be fast about it before she
"What's the update about her finding?" Mr. Greg asked the officer in charge of the search team he sent out to search for Sophia."Nothing sir! Her whereabouts are discreet, we have been searching all over the place for her, but we can't seem to find her yet," The officer reported."You have to hasten up the search for her. She hasn't left the country because I made sure I declared her wanted. She can't leave the country," Officer Greg said."I understand sir, my team and I are trying our best sir," The officer replied."Okay, contact the men working underworld for us to also get to check on them to know about their whereabouts. You know we need to know about it," The policeman said."I understand sir, I will inform them," The man replied before he bowed and left.Officer Greg immediately contacted Eric, who had eagerly been waiting for his call. He wanted Sophia to be found and arrested as soon as possible. The hate he had had for her over the years had just increased so much, especia
When Eric got to Amanda's private ward, he saw Laura, looking at Amanda with caring eyes, and he was a little confused. His face was flushed with his head tilted back, then without entering Amanda's ward, he went back to where Gabriel was.At least, he needed some explanation why he should fare Amanda's family. They looked harmless to him. "What happens between Amanda and her family in the past?" Eric asked with a raised brow, immediately he got to where Gabriel was."If Amanda hasn't told you about them, then you need to hear it directly from her," Gabriel replied with his fist clenched.At that point, Eric blamed himself for not asking Amanda about her past and her family. It seems everything always revolved around him and James."Like I was saying, you shouldn't trust these women, they are evil. You don't even know their motives for coming here," Gabriel said as he stood with Eric looking at Laura and Camilla who were sitting beside Amanda who had been hospitalized and was receiv
Eric drove down to the hospital after meeting Officer Greg who promised to help find Sophia. He was worried sick as he rushed down to the hospital panicking. James was hospitalized, just as Amanda was and the thought of it was driving him crazy.He went to and fro thinking of what to do with the situation. It was now very ugly that he didn't know how to handle it.He thought about Sophia and how wicked she was to do all that she had done, especially to her son. He prayed that the policemen would catch her and get her locked up before she escaped.His phone rang, bringing out his thoughts. He checked it, it was Officer Greg. Eric hurriedly picked it up as he was expecting an update about Sophia and David Anderson."How was the search? Did you get her?" Eric asked with hopeful eyes."She escaped before we could find her but don't worry, we would still catch her. She cannot successfully get away from us. About her flying out of the country, we would submit her picture and information and
On getting close to Anderson's mansion, Eric stopped the car, making the other people do so too."Why are you stopping?" Amanda asked him."It's dangerous, remember the group of dangerous men that were seen entering that building," Eric pointed out."Yeah, I remember," Amanda replied.Eric decided to involve the police in order to have the assurance of safety. He didn't want a case whereby the men would attack and get them injured or hold them captive. He didn't know what Anderson David's plan was and he couldn't tell.He didn't know what he might have planned with Sophia but he knew how dangerous she could be.Eric searched through his phone, looking for the contact of an acquaintance who was a police man, a high-ranked officer in his division. He luckily found it and quickly put a call through him.The police officer picked up after the first ring like he was expecting Eric's call."Hello, Mr Adams! It's been a long time," he said cheerfully over the phone. "How have you been? I kn
Amanda reached out to Eric to know the situation of things so far in finding James."My secret agent had been trying to reach out to them. He is also looking out for him. I had instructed him to keep an eye on David Anderson, he might be the one making all the moves while Sophia would be watching James," Eric said which Amanda agreed."I will also be doing everything in my power to help out. I and Gabriel had checked almost all the CCTV cameras in search of James. The house is unusually cold. As of today, I don't think James is safe anymore. We got a glimpse of me who came visiting," Amanda reported.Eric informed her of how hard his men were working towards finding James which was very satisfactory to her.He was disturbed himself, he was feeling very bad and had a strong feeling that James wasn't safe too which made him decide to go onlook and in search of him himself. He didn't care if his life would be exposed, besides, Amanda had mentioned he would go with the cops which he had c
James woke up to the sound of footsteps approaching his room. He knew it was the doctor who had been sent by his mother to inject him with sedatives again. James heard his mother talking to the doctor about the dosage and how she planned to take him along with her to another country just to get bad at his father.James continued to pretend as if he was asleep, hoping the doctor would think he was fast asleep and leave him alone so he could plan his escape.As the doctor entered the room, James kept his eyes closed and listened to his every move. The doctor came closer and stood beside his bed, but James did not move a muscle. After a few seconds, he heard the doctor's footsteps moving away from him. James opened his eyes just in time to see the doctor exit his room, closing the door behind him and he moved, knowing that his plan worked out.James knew this was his chance to escape. He quickly got out of bed and looked around for his shoes but couldn't find them. He took a quick look a
