Eric was sitting in his office working on some documents that needed urgent attention but he found it hard to concentrate on them as his mind kept thinking of Amanda and he couldn't help but get angrier."How dare she lied to me?" Eric said with gritted teeth.The door to his office was pushed open. A beautiful-looking lady in her twenties walked in, Eric raised his head to see who dared enter his office without knocking." See who will be here," Eric said with a smile.Harvey sat before him with her eyes burning with anger. Eric looked away, not knowing what to say.She dropped her bag, walked up to him and crashed her lips on his, she had missed him and didn't know why he had avoided calling her all this while. Eric reciprocated without holding back and he kissed her with all the burning anger in him.He carried her and sat her down on his desk she faced him and he continued kissing her." What if anyone comes in, let's go to your private room, it will be better there," Harvey said
Amanda came back from work late as usual, on getting home, she saw Jams sitting in the living room watching TV. " James, why are you still up, " Amanda said, walking toward the couch."I miss you, you haven't been staying at home in the evenings, I just want to be up till you come back," James replied feeling sad. He didn't know where Amanda had been going but it looked like she had gotten another job that had been keeping her very busy in the evenings. He wondered if his dad was aware of it and when he became aware of it, how he would behave."I'm sorry honey, I'm working part-time. I got another job, I have to do it if I really want to meet up with my bills. I have a lot to take care of," Amanda said, feeling sad for James. Amanda knew how attached James is to her and how much they loved spending time with each other and she has been spending enough time with her." Are you planning to stop it anytime soon? Maybe you can have time for me again. I'm always lonely whenever you lea
Eric felt bad about how he treated Amanda and at the same time, he liked how disappointed she looked.He sat on the couch in his bedroom but that was the last thing he was thinking about at that moment, she deserved it. He had even had it in mind that she would tell her about the job she was doing but she didn't care about telling her. Eric believed Amanda was acting smart and she was acting innocent at the same time, he knew Amanda would never have expected him to find out about the job she was doing at the club.He removed his suit and his entire clothes and walked into the bathroom to have a warm bath. While in the bath, his phone started buzzing but he wondered who was calling him at that time of the day.He came out shortly after and reached for the phone and checked the caller ID, it was Harvey. He sighed lightly before he picked it up and put it on a loudspeaker."Hey, babe," Harvey's sweet voice over the phone."Hey!" Eric replied wondering why she was calling him again. He
Amanda and James went over to Mrs. Robinson's home. They met them having lunch together in the living room. Nina invited them to join, and Amanda let them know they just finished eating at home. After they finished eating, Amabdacdecided to ask Nina how Bella had been coping in her new school."Nina, how is Bella doing in school?" Amanda asked with a smile."I made sure she is always with me, so she has been coping fine without any difficulty," Nina replied, and Amanda sighed in relief."Bella is lucky to have you Nina and is happy she didn't feel different from others," Amanda said which made Bella look downwards. She always feels so bad as she wasn't like the rest and couldn't communicate too but she tried not to show it as Nina always made sure she was not alone or left out in whatever they were doing. James looked at her and felt so bad, she remembered how boring his life had been when he didn't have anyone to talk to before Amanda came. He wasn't dumb but it was difficult not
The next day started with the house being quiet than usual. Eric had left for work leaving only Amanda and James at home. Amanda felt disturbed and kept thinking about everything that had happened. She wondered if she should leave or stay now that things has ended up this way.After thoroughly thinking about it in her room, she quickly left her room to James' room to inform him she will be leaving after she had made up her mind about it. She found James having breakfast in the dining, she greeted him and then sat beside him quietly."How are you feeling today? And how was your night?" She asked him and he smiled as he looked up at her."It was okay Auntie Amanda, I hope yours was fine too?" James asked and she nodded her head in agreement.Amanda looked at James and looked away. She didn't know how to start with the explanation she had in mind. She took in a deep breath before letting it out and said."I want to move back to my apartment. I'm sorry for cutting my stay short but I don'
Amanda woke up in the morning with a headache. She opened her eyes lazily and picked up her phone to check what the time was. After checking the time, she noticed a notification from her bank and she eagerly clicked it.On opening it, she saw Eric had paid her salary, seeing the money, Amanda jumped out of the bed unable to containtained her happiness." Finally!" Amanda exclaimed." I will be able to pay Bella's mum's hospital bills and settle my aunt's hospital bills too," Amanda thought to herself smiling.She knew she would be free with all pending bills and she can save from the money she received from the club.She walked to her bathroom to have a cool shower while singing her favorite song under the shower. After the shower, she noticed the headache reduced. She looked for a simple top and shorts in her wardrobe and she walked to her bedside to get aspirin, she swallowed it with some water and then walked to the kitchen to prepare a simple breakfast.She yawned hungrily and de
Amanda woke up a little bit tired, she came back late from work due to large numbers of customers coming in at late hours."Ummmm," Amanda yawned as she stood up on the bed.She went to the kitchen to prepare a simple breakfast of toasted bread and coffee before rushing into the bathroom to have her bath.It was Saturday and James had informed her they were going to start exams soon, so she had to coach him as usual. She quickly had her breakfast and put on a simple gown and she headed to Eric's mansion.immediately she entered, she met James watching television in the living room, he was very happy to see her and he led her into his room and she followed. The two sat on the bed."I have missed you so much Auntie Amanda, when are you coming back?" James asked her and she smiled before sitting next to James." I am sorry James, but I can't come back. I can't continue living here. I will have to keep staying at my place," Amanda told him and put his head on her lap.He looked at her wi
Eric sat inside his office going through the documents lying on the table in front of him, they were all documents regarding the contract he was preparing to get which David Anderson, his biggest competitor, and the enemy was also aiming at too. His phone started vibrating and he checked the caller ID and noticed it was his assistant, he sighed and picked it up."Good day Sir!" His voice rang out."I have set up the usual meeting we always have every month, the meeting is scheduled to be in an hour and I want you to be in attendance sir, so you will properly address the staff and workers," his Assistant explained over the phone." Am still busy with the document, I want to make sure everything is perfect before giving it to each department that will contribute to it " Eric explained. "I know Sir, but I'm not sure I will be able to handle the meeting myself this time around. I have already prepared everything and also checked for any Hidden cameras or recorders, I have investigated a

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
