She was sweating profusely and shivering. Tears trickled down her cheeks uncomfortably. She didn't know how loud her scream had been and that the inmate with her had been woken up. “Hi little girl. Is your guts on fire?” She yelled at her, her gaze filled with annoyance. How dare this girl interrupt her sleep? She's the President of that cell. “No..no…please..my Papa..” Ava couldn't say more than that. She ran towards the entrance,but it was shut. Oh goodness, she was shivering. Something has happened to her Papa. “Hey, relax. You can't see your Papa. And don't disturb my sleep otherwise I will crush you at once” she threatened and hissed aloud. These baby girls raised with silver spoons are like that. A minute away from their parents, they start crying like a moron. Nonsense. Ava didn't care about the threatening, she kept crying aloud “Oh Papa, don't die, Wait for me to get back…Papa” she was sobbing profusely. She stood by the entrance, hitting t
Adrian Lester was furious. He got off his swivel chair and approached Patrick. He glared at him with a killing intent and the latter stared back at him in hostility. Why hadn't he known all these years that Adrian has this side of personality? For years, they've been friends and he didn't know he is so mean and senseless? “Your audacity, Patrick! How dare you walk into my office to lay curses on me, how dare you?” He thundered and pulled him by his collars. He said his tears would flow? He dared to say that to him, someone he had helped a few times in the past? A lowlife that he paid his tuition fee for once from his pocket money? Someone he employed in his branch company and gave good incentives? He cannot see anything right in all that he does that he dares to come into his office to curse him? Patrick Connor wouldn't let Adrian bully him as he pulled him by the collar as well and the two glared at each other in fury. Adrian gnashed his teeth. “There w
Ava's heart clenched in pain. Oh her Papa is dead. Did Adrian do it, did he frustrate them until Papa's weak heart couldn't take it, did he do it? She hates him now. Everything he'd done to her, she can let it go. She can close her eyes and assume none of it existed except in her imagination. He wrongly accused her and jailed her, she can let that go also. He fucked her and planted his seed in her belly, she can put that behind her. He called her parents many unpleasant names, qualifying them with disgusting adjectives, she can forget about it. But hurting her parents until Papa's weak heart packed up, that's an unpardonable offence. “Who's Adrian and which Lester family is he from, why would anyone want to hurt you by killing your father?” Luna asked. “Adrian,son of Richard and Anna Lester, the CEO of the Lester conglomerate is my husband” Ava announced and turned to glance at Luna with her reddened eyes and sore nose. Luna's eyes displaye
Anyways, he needed to get in to collect his personal belongings, but he was restrained by the security and was almost manhandled. Having no option, Patrick left. He doesn't know why he has this feeling that Adrian is acting without thinking. They've been friends for many years and they're going to part ways, simply because he tried to make him see things right? Meanwhile, Adrian was pacing back and forth in his office. The fury in him had gradually subsided and he waited, glancing at his phone at every interval if Patrick would call him to beg him. It will be a shock to Patrick,he thought. Getting fired suddenly without compensation and without notice, he might want to exercise his civil right, but he ended up waiting the entire day and Patrick didn't call him. Oh, Patrick now acts arrogant towards him, right? First, he came to fight him in his office and now,he can't learn to be humble and beg for his position back? Meanwhile in X-city, Simon Blake has good
As soon as the officer left, a faint smile appeared on Luna's lips. She's intelligent and smart as much as she's beautiful. This woman is a combination of beauty and brains. She decoded her sudden outburst and played along. When she returned to join Ava, the both of them hugged each other “Thank you Luna. I initially didn't understand what your sudden ranting was all about until I saw the officer. Thanks so much” “You're an intelligent woman” Luna said and brought Ava to a corner. “That's the only way I communicate with my loved ones. I hope one day I might have a chance to get out of here. I've been here for so long that I'm almost forgetting what it means to be a free citizen again” Luna said in a pathetic tone. Ava sighed softly “Were you also framed like me?” She was framed, otherwise how can she end up being imprisoned because she tried to save grandfather? Luna Wesley nodded. She was framed and her years of training as a medical doctor was wasted. Her practi
Santiago and Jimmy were on their way to New Jersey. The former president had called them and told them that their sister has been found but she's not with her parents. Her foster father had died, but she's not with her mom, she'd been locked behind the walls and iron bars called prison and under tight surveillance. That made Nancy Blake sob more. Her daughter in prison awaiting trial? She's to be charged with attempted murder or murder as the case may be? Oh her life! How can this be? For generations, the Blake's had never had anything crimina to be reckoned with. How can a daughter of hers become a suspected criminal? Being away from her family doesn't mean she's got another blood running through her veins. She's still Blake. Hence Santiago and Jimmy took off. However it will be done, they must do it. She cannot be tried and convicted. That's never going to happen. Adrian arrived at the hospital and saw his grandfather had woken up. But he appeare
Richard kept making calls “I want the ashes of her remains collected. At least something to show that Ava would be given a befitting burial. Please contact Sam Leon and let's know what he is thinking. I have no idea about his daughter's imprisonment…” Richard paused and suddenly turned to glare at his wife “What?” he said and hung up. “Sam Leon is dead?” Richard demanded and Anna shrugged. At this point, it's better she talk less. Nothing is ever going to be the same anymore. When they got to the hospital Adrian was hurriedly walking into the hospital when Richard asked “Did you know that Sam Leon is dead?” Adrian paused and shook his head. “Yes dad” he answered. And they all walked into the hospital. The doctor said only one person should see him at a time but Richard said no, they all needed to talk to his father immediately. When they filed in, grandfather was lying down and his bandaged chest had been treated again. The wound was fast drying up and it seemed
That unasked question soon found it's answer as Patrick Connor arrived with his car and walked straight to the stage where Adrian was seated as the chief mourner. “Fake, everything you're doing here is fake and pure pretence. What do you think by erecting a mourning hall for Ava Leon you could silence the raging of your conscience? Spending so much to showcase the degree of your pretentious life” he bellowed. His eyes puffy and red. His complexion turned reddish for fury as he glared at Adrian. The latter was quiet and said nothing. He tried to be calm but he couldn't, as his uneasiness gave way and he stared at Patrick with moist eyes. That made Patrick Connor to chuckle aloud. Everyone present were surprised. Patrick Connor had been Adrian Lester friend of many years, what happened. Richard walked over to ask Patrick to step aside and let Adrian give his wife the last right and respect he could give to her when Patrick lost his calmness. “I can't believe th
