Amanda finished preparing the dinner earlier than she expected. She decided to do other things while waiting for Eric to show up.She decided to give the interior of her home a more appealing look by rearranging some items and spraying a nice perfume. She couldn't stop giggling and smiling whenever she remembered that she had finally been able to make her feelings known and Eric in return accepted it.She no longer had that fear of their social class and what people would think of them, she was ready to take that step with him as long as he was going to protect her from any danger involving it.She believed he would because he had already been coming to her rescue which showed that he had decided to take up his responsibility even before she made her feelings known.She happily rearranged the food again to suit her style before going to sit in the living room to wait for Eric.She had already taken a cool bath and also wore something nice. She poured her hair and applied light makeup.
Amanda went to the kitchen to prepare a quick meal for Eric leaving him alone in the room. She was grateful that the sickness wasn't as serious as she had thought it would be. She happily went about preparing the meal in the kitchen.She knew she had to be fast about it, she had earlier asked if he had had anything to eat but he said he hadn't had anything since morning.It made her worried and she felt like scolding him but she held back because she didn't want to blame him for it.She knew that he wasn't the type to stay hungry when he had enough. The sickness might have made him lose the appetite he needed to eat something.They opened the boiling noodles in the saucepan and inhaled their aroma. She was making one of her favorite foods for him and she felt very excited about it.She wanted him to see this side of her which screams of her being a wife material. Amanda paused as she thought about it, Wife material? She asked herself and shook her head before she continued with what
Anna dressed up in a nice outfit in preparation for going on the date with Marcus. She had woken up early to do the house chores and also help her aunt with the laundry.She told her aunt about the date as she decided it was right she knew about it. Her aunt happily approved of it and asked her to go ahead.She thanked her aunt and walked out of the house. She started heading towards the main road to board a cab when a car stopped in front of her.The driver behind the wheels removed the dark shades he was putting on which made her recognize him as Marcus.She smiled happily at him as he opened the car and came down to meet her."Why didn't you tell me on the phone that you were done? I would have gladly come to pick you up so you wouldn't be making use of the public transport," Marcus said looking displeased."I am sorry, I thought I was going to be an extra burden to you so I didn't find it right to do so," Anna replied looking away."It's alright. At least I caught up with you befo
Marcus took Anna to town. He already had it in mind that he was going to spoil her and make sure she had a memorable day before the dinner party.They chatted all the way to the restaurant Marcus had in mind for them. He pointed out some popular places, and they cracked jokes together and bought some roadside snacks before getting to their destination.He packed the car when they finally got to the restaurant he had in mind, it was an Italian restaurant.He opened the car and led her into the vast looking restaurant. He led her straight to the VIP section and they chose a table with a view of the city from the glass window.A waiter approached them and welcomed them to the restaurant. He asked for their order but Anna requested to see the menu.The waiter handed it to her and she went through it."Risotto, pizzas, pasta, seafood, polenta and cured meat, coffee, and famous tipples," she read out even as she didn't understand any of the meals written there."Which do we go for?" She ask
After the news of Gabriel's condition got to his parents, they decided to fly into the country to see things for themselves. They met him.They had to transfer him to a better hospital which helped him recover within a week. Meanwhile, Camilla was told that her mother was sick which made her travel back.After Gabriel got discharged.He notified Amanda and they met. They briefly chatted before Amanda went back, promising to see him another time.***It was time for Eric to go bring back James as the Holiday was over. Eric decided to invite Amanda so they could pick James together and Amanda happily said yes to him since she was not working currently and they left very early in the morning. When they arrived, Eric's parents and James were out shopping. Eric showed Amanda around the mansion and he took her to his room.They sat together on his bed as she pulled off her heels. He stroked her hair lightly as he stared at her with admiration."The weather is so hot," Amanda said to him as
Eric's parents came back early from where they went, they came to meet Eric already done with what he was supposed to help them do. The compound was now calm and his mom asked."Has he gone already, I thought we were expecting his girlfriend and he is here to take James back," She asked his father. "You can go in to check in his bedroom or around the house… he might be inside busy with other things," his father said and they walked in.His father sat in the living room with James while his mother left for Eric's room to check if he was still around. As she got closer she started hearing sounds of moans coming from Eric's room which made her stop."Is she already here and they dare do that here?" His mom thought feeling embarrassed and turned to leave, leaving them alone."Or is he now cheating on her with a girl from the neighborhood? How do I get to know it's her, it's only James that knows her," She thought with panic. She felt like pushing the door open to check who it was but he
After hanging around and contemplating for some time. Eric's parents decided to go in to join the couples having lunch.As they got in Amanda stood up immediately she sighted them. When they got closer she bowed respectfully in greeting before they exchanged pleasantries with her and sat down."You are welcome to our home, I hope he has made you feel at home?" Eric's Mom asked with a bright smile."Yes ma'am, he has. It's an honor to be here," Amanda replied, returning the smile before looking away as what they did earlier recapped in her memory."How would they react if they got to know that such happened in their home," She asked herself feeling so unsettled, and went ahead to concentrate on her meal.Eric introduced her to his parents while he chatted happily with them."She is James' home tutor right?" Eric's mom asked, looking at Amanda with admiration in her eyes."Yes, she is. I bet you and Dad had met her at my place. She was the one that made that heartwarming dinner for the
Nina and her mom were already back including James who returned the previous day.The Holiday was over so everyone was back and ready to resume their position and work at Eric's mansion.Amanda got to stay over at Nina's house because Nina and Bella insisted after they said that they had missed her so much.She got to stay with Nina's mom until the next day."Ain't they going to school today?" Amanda asked with concern as she saw Bella and Nina at her unprepared for school."No, they ain't. I'm taking them shopping. I promised them I would take them shopping. Go and get prepared, you would be going out with us," Mrs. Robinson said to Anna."Yes Aunty Amanda, you would be going out with us," the children said which made Amanda smile. She embraced each of them in a hug and patted their hair."I will join you guys right away," she said and rushed into the guest room she slept in to prepare.She came out later all dressed up. They walked towards the cab they had hired and their driver dro

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
