3RD POV:A FEW WEEKS LATER:It had been almost a month since the kidnapping of Lydia and a lot had happened in that period of time. When Lydia was kidnapped and she had seen a recorder beneath the down, it didn't belong to Mary, on the contrary it belonged to Jeremiah. He had personally flown to the city after his conversation with Lydia as his protective instincts arose at the sound of worry lingering in Lydia's voice. But while he was in the airplane, he and Aaron had been communicating and his heart broke when he landed and discovered that Lydia was kidnapped. But he swung into action at once.Mr Jacob Miller dialed all his contact in all the force which was why the FBI got involved and with the help of the two brothers, they pinpointed Lydia's location right in time though Jeremiah had arrived minutes before and ensured that he recorded all Mary was saying as he knew so well how cocky criminals got and they often start spilling. Then he went back outside in the car with Andrew a
Lydia's POV:"I killed him easily after telling him to come with me to carry the gifts of food I bought from him in my trunk. He happily followed behind and kept thanking me over and over again, if only he knew he was going to meet his demise. The hard part was now putting the body in your carry but after seducing the security team and diverting their attention, I went to your car. Luckily your car was not packed in CCTV's view, that was the end of it. Easie Peasie, Juicy Squeezie.” She finished and a single tear dropped down my eye as I thought about everything she had said.“O My Goodness, don't cry, it's not yet time for you to cry. I know I'm awesome but you don't have to.” She spoke mockingly and with anger and pain, I swallowed a lump in my throat and questioned, “WHY? WHY DID YOU DO THAT AND EVEN THIS? WHO IS PAYING YOU?”“Why am I doing all this? Such an important question.” I didn't miss the shift in tone as she walked closely behind me.“Well, I did all this because….You are
LYDIA'S POV:MINUTES LATER…“I know now you must be wondering, how did a queen like me do this? How was I able to destroy your family's image all by myself?” I was curious about that but the questions that were lingering in my mind were, Who asked her to do this? Who exactly was she? And more importantly, was she going to kill me or request for ransom instead? What was going to happen to me?“Don't worry sweetie, I'm going to tell you everything you need to know.” She hit my cheek twice softly then smiled snisterly.“So….Let's begin with the group of stupid guys that died in your family's hotel…” She took a seat before me and crossed her legs elegantly.“It was a chilly Sun…I don't recall what day of the week it was. Anyways, it was a chilly evening, and I had everything all planned out. I'm sure you've been mentally raving on how gorgeous I am, well so does every single man I come across. So I wore a beautiful short black dress and applied a sexy red lipstick and headed to the hotel
LYDIA'S POV:I opened my eyes slowly and they felt so heavy but I felt so different. My head was banging so loud I thought it was my heart beating, my body ached badly. My eyes were droopy, reminding me of the time I took too much cough syrup. It was a bit chilly in this place and I was seated on a chair but it was definitely not my office chair nor any of the chairs at home, as the chair felt cold and it was like sitting on a flat metal surface. I tried using my hands to rub my forehead, but I couldn't move my hands. It was then I forced my eyes open and instantly realized I wasn't in my house nor my office.Fear and confusion washed over me, as my eyes landed on absolutely nothing. It was completely dark in here and the only light was a small bulb which only managed to shine towards an empty office seat before me. I could see nothing else.Am I dreaming? Where am I? What the hell is going on? I struggled to move my arms and legs though they hurt badly, but it was so impossible. The
LYDIA'S POV:THAT SAME NIGHT:As the call on the other line dropped, I felt my body shake and goosebumps forming all over my arm. I just stood there with the phone still to my ear, stunned.“Who was it?” Nathaniel asked worriedly, breaking me out of my trance and I reverted my eyes towards him, removing my phone slowly from my ear, feeling my eyes tearing up in anger, frustration and exhaustion. But I blinked it away. Whoever was doing this to me would never get the upper hand in all of these. Never! “What's wrong? What did the person say?” Nathaniel asked again, pulling me towards him gently and I sighed.“I don't even know who it was! But what I do know for sure is that it was the person behind all these murders because not only was the person laughing like a maniac and a complete fool, I was also able to make out the words from what the person said, as he or she was speaking in a whisper. All I think I heard was, ‘Hope you're enjoying the drama in your life.’ before the person hu
NATHANIEL'S POV:My chair was faced out where I could see the entire busy city which served as a reflection to my mind which was running non-stop. My phone buzzed in my pocket and I instantly picked it up,My Queen👑❤️I'm okay, Nathaniel. I promise. I received the food you sent, thank you baby.I had also been checking up on her non-stop while waiting for a report from my private investigator. But as I looked outside, I decided to just do something rather than waiting.I dialed my mother's number, the one she had used to call me ever since she got released from prison. After just a ring, she answered instantly with excitement, “Hello, son. How are you doing?”She was currently in another country and she informed me where but I didn't care too much so it had slipped out of mind.“What are you doing?” I asked and she remained silent for a second.“What..What do you mean? I texted you last week that I joined a knitting and book club in a new city which I'm thinking of moving to. Is there
NATHANIEL'S POV:“She left already?” I heard voices coming from downstairs as I just finished freshening up after checking on the kids about twenty minutes ago. I was amazed to see that Lydia had already bathed them and even fed them. She was the best mum and I knew I needed to remind her every single day because she was truly a super mum and it was one of the many reasons I loved her so much. I'm not even going to begin to discuss how amazing she is as my woman.I left the twins with a smile on my face as I saw they were comfortable and just relaxing, kicking their feets. They were watching paw patrol which was surprising because Madison had always refused to watch it, calling it a ‘boys’ show. But It was nice to see her taking her time and actually enjoying it.I stepped out of my room in a casual fit as I had cleared my meetings till 10am, so I could be with the kids till I had to leave. I was genuinely worried about everything going on. I had wrapped my arms around Lydia throughou
3RD POV:THE NEXT DAY:There was something worse that could be added to the list of issues that the Millers were already facing.“O My Goodness.” Lorena closed her eyes rubbing her stomach as she watched the early morning news.Footage had been released from an anonymous source, displaying how food prepared by the hotel's chef was served to the three men that died and immediately after ate that they slumped and died.“According to the investigators, when they searched the CCTV camera, this was not found. And this comes to question a lot of things about the Miller company, did they delete this file to protect their image? And why were these three guests targeted or were there more people who died from the poisonous food prepared by hotel chefs and the bodies are still being hidden?” The news reporter casted and every friend and relative of the Millers were all perplexed. “Don't stress out, they are going to get to the bottom of this.” Lorena's husband assured serving a cup of tea then
I Swear, Let Me Love You Again Written by Okeke-Eze Ifeoma Isabella (Omaisabella) "How are you today Mrs Lydia?" Nurse Nia, who had been in charge of the blood transfusion since we began, asked with a smile as wore her gloves. "I'm okay." I replied tiredly and shook a bit as she inserted the needle after looking for an easy access vein. "You seem tired." She analyzed me but I just shrugged it off. I was tired physically, mentally, emotionally but everything was somehow going to get better. I really hoped so. As we were about to start talking, Doctor Fian and my husband entered the room. I grinned just looking at him in his blue suit and trousers. He was just so handsome and many would describe him as having the attributes of a Greek god. Every time I saw him, I realized why I loved him. "Lydia, how are you doing? Have you been taking all your vitamins and iron supplements?" Doctor Fian asked and I nodded in response feeling blood leave my body. "How are you Nathan?" I asked him
