Gianna got Nicholas's call while putting on her nightwear. She was getting ready to go to bed. She picked up the call immediately. "Hi, it's you."

"Yeah, it's me, Gianna. I'm sorry for bothering you but something is up. A lady from Tristan's workers was here, she's going to betray him."

Gianna's eyes widened. " What?"

" Yeah. They are headed towards Tristan's place right now." Nicholas announced.

Gianna's eyes widened. " What? Oh my God. That must be Leah. Thank you, Nicholas. I will inform him immediately."

Once she cut the call, she hesitated before dialling Tristan's line. She didn't know if he was going bro pick her call judging from the fact that she didn't pick his.

"I know what's going through your mind boss. I know you have always wanted to take Jasper Milton on by yourself."Tristan turned slightly. " That man is going to die by my hand even if I will have to take him from the police." From afar, they saw the police men leading the two men to their van.

    Few minutes later, they got to Quentin's apartment. Gianna couldn't believe her father lived in such a luxurious apartment. The house was big, decorated and beautiful. "Wow. Mom...did you say dad lives here?" Gianna asked as they waited for the security men to open up."Yes. He lives here with his current wife." Tracy reply with a sad smile. " Oh mom. Don't he like that.

Finally, he was back in charge again even though he wasn't there, but yet, he in charge.He thought as he walked back to his bed. He thought about what to do with Leah and concluded it was best he sent her back to Italy. He picked up the jacket on his bed before walking out of the room.**Leah sat on the bed in the room she was kept locked in. The handcuffs were still on her wrist, making it impossible for her to do anything. The door suddenly opened and Tristan walked in. Leah looked like and smiled sheepishly. "You are finally here."Tristan only stared at her without saying a word. He walked to the table, took one of the wine and poured himself a drink. "Want a drunk too?" He asked as he sipped his drink.Leah scoffed and raised her hands. " I can't do that with this God forsaken handcuffs around my wrists, can I?"Tristan smiled.

He heard him correctly when he said Layla was his mother.He couldn't believe his ear but yet, Tristan couldn't have been lying about something so important."Now it's making sense."

    It was a little bit dark in the room when Tristan walked in. Gianna was awake, she was sitting up quietly."Hey." Tristan whispered as he walked towards the bed. He sat at the edge and took Gianna's hand in his. "How are you now?"Gianna smiled and shrugged. "I've never been any better. Thank you."Tristan stared down at her stomach, smiled and looked back into her face. "My baby is still down there?"Gianna chuckled. "Yeah. She or he is still there, waiting for the day of arrival into the world. How did you get here? Why did you change your mind?"Tristan shrugged. "I don't know, perhaps... because I couldn't continue living without you, because I wanted to see Layla and to forgive her so I could get the burden off my chest.""You did the right thing, Tristan. The right thing..." Gianna's voice trailed off when she remembered all that Nelson had said."What's it? Are you okay?" Tristan questioned when he noticed the sudden change in her mood.

    That same night, Tristan left the house quietly. He was glad that both his mother and Tracy were already fast asleep and that made it possible and easy for him to leave.He dialled the line which Nicholas had called him with as he walked briskly to his car. Just when he got in, Nicholas picked the call."I'm on my way right now, send the address to this number." Tristan said, starting the car engine."I already sent it. The police are just arriving! I will hang up now because I have to escape. He's going to kill me.""Wait... what is...?" Tristan stopped when the line clicked off.

    Nicholas sat in the dark, thinking deeply on what to do. He needed to save Gianna at all cost, he needed to redeem his mistakes and real fast.He was still finding it hard to believe he helped abduct Gianna who was pregnant."I'm never going to forgive myself if anything happens to her, I need to talk to Tristan right away. No matter the consequences, I need to do this." Nicholas thought.He stood up and walked slowly towards the main entrance. He stood in front of the door, eavesdropping. He could hear Nelson, talking to Gianna. He backed the door, steadying his breath. He would have to wait for another opportunity to be alone with Gianna again, and that would enable him get Tristan's contact.Quietly, he left the main entrance back to the veranda.**"You're not going to achieve anything with what you are doing, give up already because you are about to hit rock bottom." Gianna said softly to Nelson who was seated in front of her.Nelson stared down at the cigarette between his fin

Quentin asked when Samantha's voice trailed off.Samantha nodded, closing her eyes. "Gianna is missing, someone abducted her." Samantha said, wiping tears off her face.

    "He's calling again." Nelson laughed when Gianna's phone began to ring again in his hand. He answered the call and put the phone on loud speaker. "You never give up, don't you? Why don't you give up and just go to bed?""What do you want?" Tristan cold voice came from the other side of the line. "Tell me what he sh*t you want!" "I don't think you have what I want, b*stard. Do you have my father there with you? I will like to exchange him for your Gianna. She looks so pretty, you know. What shall I do with her?" Nelson asked in a menacing tone. "Why would I have you father? What the hell do you want?" Tristan asked again."Are you asking me that? You brought down my family you jerk! My father is suffering away in the prison and you dare ask me that? You want Gianna back, huh? Come find her.""Where are you?" Tristan asked in a stiff voice.

Tristan voice was extremely cold and deep.Samantha trembled more. She fear she might lose her brother and she couldn't stop thinking about Gianna. Why would Nelson ever think of abducting her? Why her? Sammy thought deeply."I should call Tracy and Layla, and let them know what's happening." Samantha said with trembling voice.Tristan didn't reply, he was too devasted to say anything. He sat down on the nearest sofa, contemplating on what to do."Don't call them yet." Tristan said just when Samantha was going to dial Tracy's line. "What? They have to know what's happening. At least, her mother." Samantha chipped in."I need to t

Nicholas asked and Gianna had to repeat the question. "I'm still here in Philadelphia. Stranded." He replied."Oh no. That's very awful. What are you gonna do now? I can't seem to be of help right now." Gianna sighed. She got home and walked into the house, sat down on a chair."It's fine, Gianna. I just wanted you to know I'm okay. I will get a job soon enough and start all over again.""And your dad? How's he?" "He returned to the country side where my mother is. I think that's what's best for him at this month."
