Her Perfect Revenge Chapter 20: The Long Run
"The only thing I can think of is the fact that she was in pain, she was suffering from a terminal disease like I told you," I explained, looking queerly at him. "That's just a lead, we need to get to the root of the matter." He added, looking intently at me."I spoke with her bosses, those she worked for, and they said she was very fine the day before," I said, I could see through to the fact that he wasn't satisfied. "I know that Freda was ill, but I don't know of any complaint from work. She enjoyed her work as much as I knew.Days had now passed and I hadn't seen Thane at the office. His father, Nox now had two offices, his and theirs. I wanted to ask what the problem was but I didn't even know where to start from or how it'll come off to him, so I let it slide.I received a call from a strange number. I was glad and sure it might be Thane, "Hello, Gianna dear, how are you doing?" The voice asked. "I-I am okay, who's on the phone please?" "This is Gloria, I know you don't know me

"I don't know what happened to her. You have no right whatsoever to hold me hostage, I'm as innocent as the word innocent. Let me go!" She let out.She looked modest, no one would imagine she could have such a wicked heart. She was also soft-spoken, so it was very hard to tell she was a goofy lady, who enjoyed seeing others in pain.As we conversed, speaking about some painful scenarios, including the pain Freda might have undergone, seeing what the autopsy was showing, she seemed to enjoy talking about the pain of others, and that was a very bad sign, a huge indicator that something was wrong somewhere."Of course, we'll let you go after you've answered all needed questions." The officer insisted. "I committed no crime." She said, "What happened to your friend? That's all we want to know." He asked. "She was suicidal." She let out, in an unreal manner."Suicidal? Is that all you knew about your friend?" He asked we'll be taking you to the station now for further questioning." The off

"My sincere apologies!" I let out, trying to avoid hitting more people. My eyes met those of the voice I was hearing."Thane!" I exclaimed, "What are you doing here?" I asked, stretching out my hand for a handshake.“Oh, not something I'll want to talk about." He said as we shook hands, his facial expression changing."You look sad all of a sudden, what's the matter?" I asked, as we slowly moved to a chair close by to sit. "There's no matter." He lied, pointing his nose. "Yeah, go on, you need to do exactly what you're doing now," I said, casting a goofy glance at him."Do what?" He asked, looking intently at me. "Point your nose. You know what happens to Pinocchio huh?" I joked, looking squarely at him."Oh, there you go! Goofy you!" He let out, laughing. "You look better, happy," I said, looking intently at him."Oh.... Yeah, who doesn't?" He said, nervously, adjusting his shirt which wasn't disarranged. "You look bothered, and you know you're not good at hiding things like these,

"She was the mother we didn't have. She showed us so much love and motherly care. Losing her was a huge blow to all of us. So I was taken aback when my father seemed happy about her passing." He explained."At rare times, he tried to feign mourning her, which didn't work because he wasn't one to pretend. So it was always crystal clear what he thought or felt." He explained."The scariest part is that I walked in on him, on a phone call, he was talking about a body. I left almost immediately when I noticed he didn't see me walk in and listened on. I didn't want to draw any conclusions based on what I heard, but I feel he was talking about a human body.""My goodness! What human body??" I asked, frantic. "Any chances it could be Freda's?" I asked, not letting him land. "It just might be. The voice he was speaking with on the phone appeared to be a woman's voice." He added."A woman's voice?" I exclaimed, "How were you close enough to hear this and not close enough for him to see you?" I

In no time, the doctor arrived; he was checking Jora with his stethoscope, and she was now calm and stabilized. It looked strange that she had begun to convulse after being confirmed okay by the doctor."She's stabilized now." He let out, heading out, "Please hold on, Doctor, what... What if the convulsion starts again?" I asked, my heart racing within me. "She won't, he replied dismissingly.I watched her intently, counting her breath, hoping the convulsion wouldn't start again. She seemed to be sleeping sweetly; it, however, got strange and weird when she had been sleeping for the following hours.I was now concerned and had to call the doctor's attention. Her family were still there too. "She's in stable condition," he said, sure. "But she's been sleeping for too long now," I asked, concerned; he went on, checking her pulse repeatedly; she still looked like she was asleep. At this point, we could already sense everything wasn't okay. "Doctor! What's the matter," I asked, franticall

"Good afternoon." He replied, not bothering that someone else was now in the room. "How may I help you?" I asked, spitting him, "Oh, you!" He said, in composed excitement. "What a small world." He said, under his breath, not knowing that I heard him."She?" I asked, pointing in her direction, "Yeah. If I get what you mean." He answered, a pale countenance sweeping through his face. "Okay?" I asked, "Why are you here?" I asked, looking squarely at him."Is there a rule that says I can't?" He asked, goofingly. "I expect you to know that." I said coldly, "You have overstayed your welcome. You can now use the door." I said."You're in no position to order me around," he said. "But I am, this is a health facility. I'm in charge, and I now inform you that you have overstayed your welcome." The doctor said from behind us.He turned slowly, walking out coldly. "How did he even get in here in the first place?" The doctor asked, turning to face me. "I don't know," I said coldly. "There might be

"How do you feel now?" I heard her mother ask her. "Better, mother." She said weakly, looking around as if still feeling like they were still being watched or followed."I'll be on my way now, Jay. Please get well soon." I said, getting up to leave. I knew I had overstayed and my job might be paying for that soon. "That's... That's... Okay, I'm grateful! Thank you so much for staying around!" She said, her voice now shaky."Oh, come off it; stop now, or you're gonna make me tear up, too," I said, getting emotional already. "I have to say what's on my mind. I didn't see it coming at all. How you were there for me. Fought and defended me." She said."That's just how I am, and you're not an enemy of course." I said, "What would you have rather had me do? Stay there and watch you die?" I joked, "Now come over here!" I said as we embraced each other.We held each other tightly for the following seconds, soaking in our emotions and just being grateful that she was alive. "Thank you."

"I'll be back. And when I'm back, you won't like how your story would end!" He let out, as I heard him walking away. The police arrived almost immediately he walked off."Hello, Jora," I said, trying to keep my voicemail from shaking. "He might come for you, just like he did me. He even had a bunch of spare keys! Luckily for me, I guess the key didn't fit!" I exclaimed."Oh my goodness, I think you should move in with us till everything is settled, till he's handed over to the police. You can't gamble with your life. Because if you kill you, the worst that could happen is him being executed.""But you'll be long dead and gone before then. So you need to try to be as logical as possible." She advised. "I know. But I also know that staying at your place, that's a different level of inconvenience. I don't want to put you through that." I said."Not in this life or another, would you ever inconvenience me. Please never say that again, you are a sister to me and you proved it by your actio

"I would like to keep a copy of her demands if it is okay with you?" He asked lazily, "Of course". "I will get this to my lawyer and build up the contract with it," he said at last neatly folding it back to its initial size, "okay" I responded hoping our awkward chitty chat had come to a blissful ending, as I made my saya"I must warn you, you will need to be convincing enough; my father has a nose for smelling plots miles away", he said, as a frown crossed his face. To his surprise, I laughed wholeheartedly at that. Everything seemed the same to me; I stood for some minutes, and I had to reemphasize how good I was at my job."Mr Thorn, I spent years of my life waiting for this promotion, and you already know that; I appreciate it, and I'm willing to help; it's important we track Nox down before things get out of hand. I am not about to jeopardize it for anything," I responded confidently, taking Thorn by surprise. He nodded in agreement with my tenacious attitude."To lay my curiosit

Thane cleared his throat as he felt uncomfortable with the awkward silence in the room, he could feel my intent gaze on him, and my silence hurt him. As he stood right there, he gazed lovingly at me despite my icy cold expression."I know this is silly of me to say, but thank you for coming; I understand why you are here, regardless of whatever,", I said, shamefaced, not daring to act cheerful as usual. I was silent for some seconds contemplating how best to address Thane's recklessness."All thanks to your thoughtful behaviour,. You get to accommodate everyone and me for much longer", I responded sarcastically " I am just glad you are feeling happy again", I added."By accommodating everyone else, I don't understand what you mean," Thane said, looking sternly at me. "You will. You shouldn't be here, you're risking your life. Are you ready to accommodate those on the run because of your supposed father, since the Thorn and Thane Mansion is a safe place now?" I asked.Thane took that

Nox picked up his phone and dialled a contact; the receiver answered with the second ring " Hello, I am back," he said, desperately expecting his reaction. " Welcome," Agar responded dryly, at the other end of the phone before cutting off the call."He seemed elated at the news of your glamorous return" Thorn said sarcastically, catching him off guard. Nox felt angry, but he hid his shaking hands behind him, holding Thorn's gaze; he didn't know Thane had been standing in the doorway watching him, "Neither are you in his good books", he responded, getting back at him.Thorn laughed hysterically, "I was never desperate for his approval; I prefer my freedom, unlike you ", he shot back at him. " Is this how we play it, hun? Rubbing it in my face every time, "he responded impatiently."You started it uncle!!!" Thorn responded, stressing the word "uncle". "I know I do not match up to you, Nox, no doubt about that, but guess what! You do not hold a lamp to Thane's abilities", he said, smil

I watched silently as the sound of the ticking clock repeated its rhymes. I was still in bed, and it was almost my wake-up time.I had awoken earlier than I used to. This alone seemed to me like a huge sign and indication of something I couldn't lay my hands on just yet. Shoving my long fingers through my hair, I sat up in my bed, my head drenched in thoughts of all I had been through for the past few days.I wanted so badly to connect the dots; I wanted so badly to have my revenge, even if it meant taking some hard roads.But I didn't know getting on this path and having my revenge would prove this hard. I pushed myself out of my silky bed into the washroom.As the showers of water flowed all over my body, it was to me a huge relief. My head ached already, from the raging thoughts I was having.I found myself soliloquizing as I had my bath, "We can't give up, Gianna, get things right, just have allies that would help you through" I said to myself, wiping my body with a towel.I hurri

Thane cleared his throat as he felt uncomfortable with the awkward silence in the room, he felt my intent gaze on him, and my silence irked him. As he stood right there, he gazed lovingly at her despite my icy cold expression."I know this is silly of me to say, but thank you for saving us; I understand what you did by going into hiding sort of, he said, shamefaced, not daring to act cheerful as usual.

Her Perfect Revenge CHAPTER 49: Precision Please!
The calls of the sirens were getting closer, and he knew it was time to leave. He stuffed the note into his pocket and in a mad dash out of there, diving into the car. The tyres screeched as he tore out of the driveway, leaving the law enforcement miles behind. With his head spinning, he tried to make a decision. He couldn't even run to the police; they'd just use him as a convenient way of having amazing news again.His supposed father told him loudly and often that he was alone. His only option was to pray and rely on his yogi training. I was in danger of being harmed by the armed men, and he felt I might be killed trying to right this situation. Right the wrongs, at any price. His car growled as he stomped on it, whipping through the narrow lanes of the city. It was his night, and he would seize the opportunity. Thane controlled this part of the city through various connections he had with many people who owed him favours. He would bring in every single one of them to assist w
Her Perfect Revenge CHAPTER 48: Strong Duo
I and Rita had a lot of unfinished business. It was high time I pushed for vengeance to be gotten as soon as possible. I and Rita made sure to rest well, seeing how busy the next day would be.As I watched as our car left the driveway, I felt empty inside, like in an empty house with noise. We had to leave as well, but where the hell were we going to go? With the pandemonium he had escaped down there, it was no place for him to be going back onto the streets. While the reality of the situation was still dawning on him, his cousin was gone, and his friends were no longer to be trusted, possibly not even the father. His legs wobbled beneath him as he stood from the chair. Finally, we stopped driving and approached the house. The house was suffocating us, the walls closing in upon themselves as we felt more buried under guilt with each passing second. We sighed and headed to the garage. We had to get our heads cleared, and there was only one way: drive like a bat out of hell. And abou
Her Perfect Revenge CHAPTER 47: The Bad to the Worst
"One last time!" The midwife instructed, "You're so close! You're so close, the baby's head is already 10cm gone!" The midwife continued to shout at me, urging me to push with all the might I could muster. Various midwives had already advised against the delivery of this particular child but I was determined not to lose an innocent life. “Argh!!!!” I tried my best to grab something to transfer this pain to but everything seemed flat and out of my grasp. Finally, the cry of a beautiful baby girl was heard crying loudly in the room. All the midwives looked up at the sky. It seemed brighter now; they looked pitifully at the beautiful baby girl; her fate was already sealed; she looked so sick, I heard one of them say.“Sorry, can we talk?” One of the midwives called out to the matron that had delivered my baby. The matron lifted her head and answered her call. “Don’t tell me you intend on keeping that child, don't make her suffer. I jerked up at this point. It was a bad dream! I p
