It's been two days since the incident happened, Amanda didn't receive any letter nor did she get any threat which made her relaxed and calm. Gabriel had been working from home too as he promised which got her more happy. After his working hours, he would keep her company or they would cook something to eat together.It made Amanda forget easily about everything and felt at home too with Gabriel.This morning, she woke up with a slight fever which made her rush to get aspirin drugs for herself to calm the fever. Everywhere was very quiet and calm because Gabriel had earlier left for an important meeting he had to organize on the company premises himself.Amanda sat on the couch in the living room, thinking of what to do. She thought about cleaning to keep herself busy.She looked around the house, picked some cleaning tools, and got down with cleaning. She was still in it when the phone beeped.She cleaned her hands and reached out to pick it up as she thought it was Gabriel who was ca
The day was very bright and sunny. Amanda woke up very early, she felt like jogging in the pack and decided to ask Gabriel to come along with her. He found him asleep on the couch with his laptop in front of him, it looked like he worked late into the night and fell asleep while on it.Amanda couldn't blame him as she knew that she was the cause of it. Taking care of her yesterday made him lie that it was his day off while it wasn't, he had actually had a lot of work to do.Amanda walked closer and bent down to look at him properly; Well a curved jaw, pointed nose, and full lips, she wouldn't deny that Gabriel wasn't very handsome.He was the kind of man every lady wants and would die for. She smiled as she looked at his closed eyes, his glasses were about to fall off his face as he slept carelessly like he didn't have any problem at all.She looked away thinking about something which flashed into her mind. "What if he had feelings for her and couldn't come clean about it?" She asked
Amanda and Gabriel returned home after spending time at the park. To keep Amanda company, and happy. Gabriel proposed they go on a friendly date and act like couples even as deep down in his mind it was a real one for him.Amanda refused when he mentioned it but he persuaded her and she had no choice but to accept.By Evening, they were already on their way to the first place they would be visiting for their date, as they sat together in the backseat of the car.Amanda could feel Gabriel's eyes hovering all over her, and she didn't blame him, she knew any man would with the way she was dressed for our tour and date. Earlier after having her bath, she settled for a tight fitted slit gown that had a lower neck that exposed a little part of my cleavage while the long slit did justice to exposing my beautiful slender legs. She heard Gabriel swallow so hard before looking out of the window which made me chuckle which got her embarrassed and she regretted agreeing to go on a date with him
When they were done, Amanda asked that they take public transport home as she wanted to have a walk back home.Gabriel refused but she insisted and pulled off her heels to show him how serious she was. He had no other choice than to agree so that he wouldn't ruin the happy mood he had put her in.They headed home, laughing and joking with each other. Just around a corner, they saw a teenage girl of about fifteen years old run past them and then some minutes later, some teenage boys ran past them heading in the little girl's direction.Amanda suspected that the little girl was in danger as she had experienced such before and Gabriel luckily got to save her.She turned to Gabriel as she started panicking, she cannot even think of how the teenage girl would be treated by the teenage boys."Gabriel I think the girl that ran past us earlier is in trouble," Amanda said pointing towards the alley where the teenage boys were headed and the teenage girl had earlier run into."What are you talk
It was Eric and his men. On seeing him, Amanda felt a little bit safe. His men and the masked men got into a fight, when the masked men noticed that Eric's men were stronger, they started retreating but Eric's men managed to catch two of them.Amanda begged Eric to take Gabriel to the hospital which he did by asking his driver to drive him to the best hospital in the area.Gabriel was quickly rushed to the hospital with Amanda following them after Eric offered to drive her there in his car which he appreciated.She was still panicking and was restless as they left. She didn't stop blaming herself for what happened. She felt she was the cause of Eric's life being in danger and deserved to be the one who was hit. She couldn't stop crying too which made Eric uneasy as he would glance at her from the back view mirror in the car.She didn't even care if he was there as she totally forgot and wasn't herself. All she was after was Gabriel's life and how he was. She prayed that nothing shoul
Camila who was still angry at Amanda decided she wouldn't stop trying to remove Amanda from Gabriel's life so she sought to make Gabriel hate her so she would stay away from him. She planned to set Amanda up and make sure she would not escape it for any reason. She went to a bar to have a drink while thinking about it.All her life she hated Amanda so much and only wanted to see her suffer because that was what she deserved. Losing her mom at a very young age makes her less privileged and a loser to start with.She deserved the maid kind of low life and wasn't meant to experience any form of joy, peace, or happiness, that was what made her make her life a living hell before she finally left home."Why would she think now that she deserves Gabriel when she was still alive, Hale and hearty? All the while they went to high school, she had always been attracted to Gabriel because he was the richest boy in school then but it had always pissed her off that he would always stick and follow
Amanda sat with Gabriel reading a book to him. He had insisted that she do so to keep his company. She was trying her best to do whatever she could to make it up to him as she still felt guilty about the incident that happened and wanted to make sure Gabriel saw that it was never an intentional act but a mere coincidence that they never knew would occur. She never knew the whole stuff was a setup. She wondered if the men which Eric's guards had confessed and what they might say as a reason which made them attack her and Gabriel. She knew that the attack wouldn't come if there was no reason because unless you have offended such a group of people or a person among them, they would never ambush you and try to hurt you. She prayed that whosoever was behind it should be caught because the person just toiled with another person's life and deserved to be punished. She remembered Eric and how he came to their rescue, she also remembered how she yelled at him and immediately she felt very
"Who asked you to do what you did?" The doctor questioned the nurse with rage.She shivered as she avoided the doctor's gaze. She regretted doing what she did and wished she didn't listen to Camilla.She prayed that the doctor wouldn't involve the police."I am asking you a question," the doctor barked which made her shiver."If you don't tell me who asked you to do this, be ready to be locked up in jail because I'm going to involve the police," the doctor said which made the nurse look up immediately."It's the lady looking after him. The lady who brought him to the hospital. She was the one that asked me to do it while she was away so that she would not be suspected," The nurse confessed, lying that Amanda was the one that asked her to do what she did just as Camilla had asked her to do."You mean Miss Amanda?" The doctor said and the nurse quickly nodded."Why do you think I would believe you?" The doctor asked her."I have the recording of everything. I did it should in case she r

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
