On getting to Sophia's place. She ushered James inside and led him upstairs. David Anderson was out, she made sure she didn't take him to the wing of the house where she stayed with him. She took him to her own wing. There James saw a lot of pictures of him hanging on the marble wall, while some were placed in the closet in the living room.

"Wow! Mom, you have all my pictures from when I was a kid till my age now," James said as he looked at his pictures.

"Of course. I frame and put up your pictures on every birthday. To mark it, it helps make me feel that you are with me," Sophia lied.

She had to make James believe her anyway. She had gotten the photos of him online and had it framed some days back before putting it up like she knew she would be able to buy his trust and bring him over.

"They are all so fine. Thank you, Mom that you are caring even while you weren't there for me. I am happy you never abandoned me," James said and hugged Sophia.

"Why do you think I would do that to my

    It has been a week since James and Sophia started going out. He had been skipping classes after he successfully used his father's phone to send a text to school stating he was going on an urgent vacation with his father which he cannot avoid.He demanded that his driver should start dropping him off outside the gate and he doesn't want him coming inside the school compound again with the lie that his classmates were making fun of him as he always comes to school alone.His driver, who didn't see it as anything, agreed to do so. It was the easiest way for James to follow Sophia out every day without his driver or the school notices.Today was another outing day for James and Sophia. They were going to the beach this time around. Sophia told him to pack his bags and come stay with her.He demanded if his father knew about it, and Sophia lied saying that his father knew. She had obtained permission from him.James, who believed her, packed some of his clothes into his bag as Sophia instr

    Later in the night, James woke up to see himself on a strange bed and in a strange room. He got up and looked around to get familiar with his environment before he started heading out, in search of his mom.He met her in the living room, drinking alone, he quickly moved forward to meet her, looking around. He recognized the house as another one, as he had already familiarized his mother's place and knew it so well."Mom!" James called, still looking around."Son! You are awake. Come sit with me," Sophia said to him and tapped on the couch she was sitting on. James obeyed and sat with her."How was your sleep? Did you have a nice day today?" Sophia asked him and rubbed his hair. He smiled at her as she remembered how much fun they had together on the beach."Of course, today was fun Mom! Thank you. The level of fun I had was all I have been wanting and without you not showing up, I wouldn't have had such fun," James replied."Why? Your father doesn't care about outings and taking you t

    They walked into the house and she started leading him to the room he had slept in earlier.When they got in, she asked James to climb the bed so that she would tug him in but he sat down on the bed instead."Mom, this place is strange and doesn't look like your house. Where are we?" James asked."You are really smart, you noticed," Sophia said and squatted in front of him."Yeah, it isn't my house but this is one of my penthouses, and guess why we are here, because we are going on a vacation in another country," Sophia said with a smile."On a vacation in another country? Does Dad know about it because he would never agree to it if he knows while school isn't yet over," James said with surprise."He doesn't have to know James because you are now in my custody and I would never allow you to go back," Sophia said in reply."What are you talking about Mom?" James asked her with confusion."It is just a harmless vacation and doesn't worry, I will inform your father and ask for his approv

    Eric went back home, thinking of what to do. He summoned all his domestic staff and asked them not to reveal James's Absence to anyone, which they all agreed to do.He walked inside his bedroom, picked up the phone, and started thinking of what to do. It has been days since he called Marcus after the quarrel. Marcus too hadn't bothered to call him, as Marcus knew he wouldn't pick up his call. He thought about calling Marcus and swallowing his pride, but it wasn't that easy for him, but it was James that was involved so he summoned up the courage to call Marcus. He was the only one he can confide in this situation, he can come up with tangible advice on what they should do.Marcus picked up on the first ring like he was expecting his call, Eric took a deep breath of relief before saying."I am sorry for calling all of a sudden, but it is urgent," He explained."Do you have to explain like you cannot fall whenever you want to, or do you think I am angry about the quarrel we had over the

    After having a little chat with the girls. Gabriel headed to Juliet's place to meet Amanda, they had scheduled a meeting up with the girls who had asked that they take them out but since the news of James' Disappearance, they had canceled the meeting with the girls and had rather scheduled to meet and think of how they would help out in finding him.That morning, Amanda called Gabriel immediately after she saw the news, she was greatly devastated and had been crying. It was Juliet that kept on comforting her that morning.She blamed herself for James' disappearance, saying it might have been a result of his father's change of attitude toward him, and he had told her about it on the phone, but she didn't do anything and only asked him not to worry as his father was only stressed out even as she knew she wasn't saying the truth, she refused to say anything to him."Amanda, it's enough, all we have to do now is to pray that he is okay wherever he is.

    Eric looked at Amanda and then at Gabriel. He lacked what to say as they had taken him by surprise. He wasn't expecting her to show up after what happened.He asked them to sit down, which they did before he started walking toward the fridge to get them wine. He came back with a bottle of wine and two glasses, which he placed on the center table and asked them to help themselves.They thanked him before Gabriel poured the wine into the two glasses for him and Amanda. He locked eyes with Amanda before he looked away at Gabriel."I know you were taken by surprise by our coming. We came to help after we heard what happened," Gabriel said."Thank you!" Eric replied dryly, avoiding their eyes."James told me how you changed back to your old self after I left, but I am not here to blame you. I am here to help you find out his whereabouts and I think we have a clue," Amanda said and took a sip from her glass."Last week we saw James and Sophia at the toy store, I visited with my little frien

    Eric went to meet Marcus in the regular hotel and immediately he sat with him. His secret agent called."What's the update so far?" He asked."I think Sophia hasn't stayed in her place since the day James went missing, but I have found out where she is staying now, I think James would be there. It is an undisclosed penthouse on the outskirts of the town, she is staying there with David Anderson. Several men are guarding the place. It would be hard for intruders to get in," The secret agent reported."Anderson?" Eric asked with surprise and it dawned on him that Sophia might be working for Anderson or was his lover. He remembered what happened years ago, what happened with his secretary that tried to leak their idea, and what is happening now. He remembered the call too and where the man who called had asked them to meet."Damn! They ain't getting away this time, I promise," Eric said with anger."Keep an eye on them and report back to me whenever you notice any suspicious movement," E

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.

    "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
