"Sophia!" Ava called and that bring Sophia back to her senses. She turned around to see Adams, Mr.Logan's driver
"I will get going now, but please take care of my princess, I am begging you now, because you won't like the outcome if anything happens to my princess" he tried to sound serious, but how can he be serious when the woman in his front his taking his breathe away? Taking a last glance at his daughter, he walked out of the kitchen trying to avoid Sophia's eyes. Sophia placed her hand on her chest trying to calm herself down.
*Have you lost it, Sophia?* She cautions herself.
"Don't tell me you like my daddy, what did I expect my dad is very handsome.", Ava said and Sophia raised her head to look at her. Isn't she too small to know something like this?
"It's time for school you shouldn't get late on my first day" Sophia flash Ava a smile and she comes down from the chair.
"Yeah, Sophia. I am not a late comer" she replied and that brought a smile to Sophia, she wondered how a kid can be this smart, so bad her father is a monster. But she's not gonna touch Sophia, right? Sophia was the perfect weapon to use because nothing can make Lucas shed tears. But using the innocent girl for revenge isn't gonna help. She has to sit down now and think about a new and perfect way to get her revenge. She must get her revenge at all costs because that's the only thing she's living for. Her family also needs the revenge badly, she has been trying to get her revenge for five years and she's not gonna lose her chance now that she has a chance, never Lucas must surely pay. But is he pretending not to recognize her?
"Sophia, you've been spacing out since, are you okay?" Ava asked concerned, Sophia left out a smile before bending down to the litter level with a smile. She placed her little hand on Sophia's forehead and left out a frown.
"Your temperature is fine, will you go to the hospital for a check-up? I don't want you to get sick" she said and Sophia chuckled, her family is the only one that cared about her, she was happy that she has a little cutie that care about her now.
"Ava, I am fine now, it's time to go to school, where's your driver?" She asked and Ava placed her hand on her jaw.
"I don't have one, Adam was the only driver we have, I will tell Dad to employ a new driver, but how can Dad go to work, without letting Adam drop me off first?" She asked out loud.
"Did you know where the key to the other cars, are?" Sophia asked and Ava quickly nod her head.
"Yes, it's in my Dad room." She replied.
"How are we gonna get the key? I am very sure he lock the room, wait here let me ask the cleaner" Sophia said and Ava drag her back.
"I know my Dad's password," Ava said and that brought a smile to Sophia's face, she has been thinking of searching Lucas's room, who knows if she can get her hand on any illegal things he did. Wealthy people have one or two secrets they don't want the world to know about, she's gonna use the media to get satisfaction. Yeah, she has learned many things in the past five years, she learned them because they can be useful for her revenge.
"Sophia, let go. I will open the door for you" little Ava said and Sophia nod her head before walking to the lobby with her. Ava inputs the password immediately after they get to Lucas's door and Sophia makes sure, she memorized all the numbers she pressed.
"Sophia, did you want me to tell you his password?" Ava asked and Sophia check her wristwatch.
"This is almost to eight Ava, we don't have time for that, you can't go late to school on my first day," she says, and Ava chuckled.
"I don't care if I go late, I am happy as long as I have you here, his password is my birth date" she replied and open the door to her father's room. She rushed to where the keys are, she picks one of the keys, and rushed to where Sophia was. Sophia didn't bother to look around the room since she will be coming back to that after she drop Sophia In school.
"Let go, baby," she said and hold Ava's hand. Ava blush hard, hearing baby from someone that's not her father for the first time made her very happy. Ava point to the car once they got to the garage, Sophia help her to the key before rushing to the driver seat.
Driving down the road, Ava keeps telling her how she loves her and how she told her father to employ her. Sophia was busy thinking of how she can get rid of Lucas. She doesn't wanna hurt, Ava because she was a sweet girl. But no one can stop her revenge.
She suddenly matches on the brake, bringing the car to an abrupt halt after a loud screech as she almost ran into a truck peacefully driving down its lane.
"Damn it!" She hits the steering wheel as she parks the car at the side of the road, turning her head to look at the scared Ava.
"I am sorry for disrupting you, I won't talk again until we get to the school," Ava said and Sophia chuckled.
"It wasn't your fault I was the one at fault, just promised me you won't tell your father what happened? Your father will sack me if he finds out I almost hit a truck with the car, did you want him to sack me?" Sophia asked and Ava shake her head negatively.
"I am not gonna tell him, I don't want him to sack you" Ava replied Sophia took her hand to her hair, caressing her hair gently and Sophia select a smile.
The drive to the school was silent, Sophia drop Ava at the school and also run to the house to go check if she will find anything useful in Lucas's room. She looks around before inputting the password. She walked to his study and look around, her eyes landed on some documents and she move closer to them.
It was some of the company sales, and the sound of the door make the documents she was holding fall from her hand.
"Hope I haven't been caught? I haven't even started yet?" She asked herself before peeping through the door.
"Who are you?" She heard Lucas, angry and authoritative voice.
"Whoever is inside that place should come out now," he yelled and Sophia almost come out of her hiding place to give him the piece of her heart. A message pop inside her phone, she stare at her phone and it's the reminder of her debt. She has many things to do with her salary so she can't quit now, right? She hasn't even taking her revenge, it will be a waste of five years."What are you still waiting for?" Lucas snap at her, and she quickly bows before she scurries out of his study, and he sigh deeply."What are you doing here?" He asked. "Forgive me, sir. I'm really sorry, ... I didn't mean to barge into your room," She falls to her knees, and apologizes to him, it's better to act innocent for no w. "Get up," he says to her. "No, sir... Please let me remain like this. Please forgive me," She pleads as if she is held at gunpoint and she's desperately begging for her life. "I told you to get up," she snap at her, and she quickly springs up to her feet. He stare at her
SOPHIA POV Working as a maid for the Lucas's has been the most stressful work I think ever existed. Although Ava doesn't have a problem, and I think I like her, Lucas is the problematic one. Nothing ever pleases my so called boss Don't blame me for being harsh with my words, but you'll understand if you're in my shoes. All he ever gives me is problems and nothing else.

Sitting on the edge of my bed and diving away in thoughts, a knock on my door pulls me out

Someone that doesn't know what it takes to be rich, I hate poor people and you know that?" Mrs Logan asked and Lucas sigh in frustration."Mrs Logan, who did you want me to employ, the president daughter? Or those people that will make my daughter uncomfortable?" Logan asked."I am sure Lora the president daughter is ready to be a nanny to your only child, she doesn't mind because she loves you, I don't know you will stoop so low to employ someone like that" Mrs Logan said."It's my choice and that's what my daughter want, I need to sleep if you don't mind..."

"Hello, Sophia I haven't heard from you, what's happening, Sophia?" A male voice said from the other end and Sophia sighed, she doesn't need anyone to tell her who the person is before she find out it was her best friend."Yeah, I know, right? I am just trying to gather something's, I found something but I need to be sure before sending it to you, Kingsley" She replied, Kingsley was her friend, she planned everything with him.

"Lucas, your maid haven't attended to me since I woke up, what type of maid is she? Is she not supposed to do all the things I need even without asking?" Mum yelled from the phone and I mentally scoffed. I don't know why mum is like this, I have checked on her this morning and she's doing fine, I wonder why she doesn't like, Sophia. Because to me Sophia is loveable. "Mum, she's not a maid, she is Ava Nanny she doesn't have any business with you," I reply to her coldly, and without waiting for another word from her, I drop the telephone.

A few days laterLucas private captain announced the arrival of the plane at the new york city. Lucas and Sophia smiled at each other as they walked hand in hand out of the plane. A car was already waiting; Lucas led her into the car by opening the passenger door, leaving the driver to go get their luggage."You owned this car too?" she asked, just wanting to be sure. "Well! I do; you know I am freaking rich," he said arrogantly."Don't try to be pompous, Mr. Owner." They both smiled at the joke. He went into the car from the other side."Sir, it's been a while since you've been here; it's good seeing you again." His driver said, and he scoffed."Yes, I have been busy with work. How's everything here in New York?" He asked, trying to start a discussion."It's cool, sir; we've been pushing through." He replied, focusing on the road. They discuss some random things and also crack jokes with them, making the drive to the Logan house a smooth one.Getting to the house, Sophia saw the mar
Sophia came to their house to give them the news about her and Lucas going on a trip. She can't wait to announce that news to her family, but coming there, she saw Stephen dressing."Hey! "Are you going to school today, and what's the time?" Sophia asked, wondering why Stephen was dressing up really hot. Is he trying to impress someone?"Did I look cute? Please be serious," he asked, waiting for her reply. "Why are you dressing up so serious? Are you going to a party?" she asked, and Stephen chuckled softly."I guess the problem I have with you is that you ask questions a lot. Well! Today is Natalie's birthday, so I promise to take her around. Tell me where you can take a girl so as to make them happy?" he asked, waiting to hear from Sophia, who was just staring at her. She had come to express her happiness, but he's here playing a lover boy."Take her to hellfire; that's where girls love." She said with a slight hint of jealousy in her voice."Are you jealous that my son is now goin
Two Months Later"So where did you say we are going to?" Sophia looked up at Lucas with a bright smile, ready to go anywhere with him. Lucas pretended to be in deep thought, rubbing his chin before flashing his trademark smirk. The sun was shining down on them, casting a warm glow on the couple as they chatted. "I don't know for now," Lucas said coyly, watching as Sophia rolled her eyes but in a playful way. Sophia stepped closer to Lucas, narrowing her eyes slightly. "Tell me where we are going to when I am being nice," she teased. Lucas continued to hold back the surprise, delighted by Sophia's playful demeanor. "It's a surprise," he finally relented. "It's good to have some alone time to ourselves. Ava is with her grandmother, so I don't think we'll have any disturbances. Let's spend three days in another country. I promise to only think of you." A gentle breeze picked up and the surrounding trees rustled slightly in agreement with Lucas' romantic plan.Sophia's face lit up wit
"You don't have to worry, sweetheart; mom will be okay." He reassured her and sniffled."Should I come over? I want to see her?" She asked, her tone filled with worry."No, stay there. I will come get you soon," Lucas's voice strains through the phone."Okay, dad, I wished Mom a quick recovery." She prayed, her voice low. The call ended, and Lucas dipped the phone into his pocket. He went closer to the bed and sat on the edge, caressing Sophia's face.The hospital counterStephen and Kingsley rushed into the hospital and rushed to the counter, breathing heavily, their faces full of worries. They looked around but couldn't find Lucas."Please, my sister, where's she?" She was rushed here, and my brother in-law called to inform me that she needed a donor. I am here; can you take my blood sample?" He spoke sharply, his voice laced with concerns for her sister."What's your sister's name, and which ward?" The nurse in charge asked."Her name is Sophia Owen, but we didn't know her ward. We
She took the phone closer to ear immediately she clicked on the answer button. "Nice hearing your voice. I couldn't fathom that you're calling me personally. That's strange. Anyway, what did you call me for?" She said the last sentence sarcastically. Lucas was yelling at her end, and she could sense him boiling in anger right now. She burst into laughter before hearing his voice again. "Elena, where the hell did you put my child? Where's my child?" "This is kinda funny, I don't know how you got my number, I thought you don't have my number," she replied, "Anyway, she's also my child. Why are you panicking? Are you afraid I might hurt her? If you're afraid, yes, I can hurt her," she added. "No, Elena, you can't do that. She's your child, your blood." Lucas pledged and Elena scoffed at Lucas' words."Blood? I don't know why weak people like you believe you can't hurt your blood. I can hurt her, she's nothing to me," she said. "What did you want from me, Elena?" Lucas asked, In a n
FlashbackSophia was about getting to the school when a car crushed hers. "What the fuck" She cussed and get down the car to check who the hell did that. The person whined down the glass and it turned out to be Elena. A sinister grin played by her lips as she stepped down the car. She folded her hands together and put it on her breast, she slammed the door with her legs her body rested on her car. Sandra step down from the other side of the car. "You evil Lady, where have you being hiding? And what's your motive for showing up here?. I guess you must want to kill me right?" Her voice filled with rage, glaring aggressively at her, her teeth gritted her eyes shallow on her. "You know what, I love to see people like you brag, empty vessel" She laughed sarcastically."If you were so bold enough, you shouldn't have hid. You should have come out bitter soul" She confronted her, her chest boiling in rage, as their gaze meet.. Elena was already losing it, she clenched her fist, her eyes b
"Going to get Elena, she can't escape this, she dare killed my child, she'll regret ever crossing my path" Mrs. Logan speaks with a fierce determination. Her words are filled with anger and hatred towards Elena. ***** Elena and Sandra make a grand entrance into a club, where the music is booming and the atmosphere is lively. The club is filled with excitement and energy, and Elena appears to be basking in the thrill of it. Sandra is by her side. They came to celebrate."Did you think Leon will be dead by now?" Sandra's voice struggled to be heard above the music and din in the club as she asked Elena a question. Elena asked her to speak louder. "Did you think Leon will be dead by now?" Sandra shouted. Elena nods her head without a hint of pity on her face, "Sure, Leon can't be alive, he is gone," she replied, with a touch of amusement in her voice. They exited the club each holding a cigarette. As they walked, "What's your next plan, Elena?" Sandra asked and Elena replied with a
Lucas darted to his parked car as fast as he could. His heart pounded against his chest as he flung open the back door and carefully lowered his brother, Leon, on the seat. Without a moment's hesitation, Lucas jumped into the driver's seat, revved the engine and peeled out of the parking lot, breaking every traffic law in his way. The screeching of tires and sudden jolt of every sudden stop echoed through the empty road as he sped towards the hospital. He didn't even bother to park the car properly when he arrived, instead, he leapt out and sprinted towards the entrance, holding Leon's limp body in his arms. "Doctor! My brother must come out alive!" Lucas's voice broke as tears streamed down his face. The nurses whisked Leon away from him, rushing him to the available wards as Lucas and the rest of the Logan family followed closely behind. "Are you sure my son will be fine?" Lucas's mother broke down in tears, collapsing onto the cold, hard floor. Her hand clutched her forehead as
