To say my family is mad is an understatement, they are furious at me. In fact mum just grounded me, Tony is still glaring at me same as my other siblings. At least the kids are happy to see me."Mummy what have you done ?"Pearl whispers "She has been a bad girl "Tony answers him."But guys , I did it for your safety""There's nothing like our safety here Amanda, you were just being selfish !" Andrea says. Ouch that stings"Andie he can hurt all...""That's enough from you Amanda, we always help each other in such situations. The last time we helped didn't we? "Mum asks "stop being a brat and let us help on this we are family. We were all in danger still when you kept us in the dark. I really thought you knew better than this !" "I'm sorry, okay" I say trying to hold back from crying"We are taking over that from now on""But Tony I was the ..""Yeah you were but am in charge now and you are out . Don't give me those eyes Amanda am not falling for those eyes at this serious issue .
Miles POVWith everything going on , I have not been having a good night sleep. What worries me the most is that Tristan may succeed in hurting my family. If he managed to stay hidden all these time it means he is capable of anything bigger . To my knowledge, he is nearer than we thought. He is trying to legalize their family business not his brother. It seems like he has been the brain behind it the whole time. So far he has not sent Amanda or her family any message which is worrying me. His silence is so alarming. It seems like he is almost succeeding in legalizing the family business, but it's my responsibility to see that it may not happen. I can't have them operate their dirty money in this city . So far we have succeeded in sending in some minor cases to them to prevent them from doing anything. We just had some of the workers file a complain about being paid peanuts and working more hours . We made others file a complain on the ethics of the work place . So as for now they h
AMANDA POV"Wake up !" "Amanda!""Why are you shaking me this violent!" As I shout , that's when I hear the smoke detector. "Miles what's going on?""I don't know, but I woke you up as soon as I heard the detector. Let's go and check on the kids!"On our bedside watch it reads 1:28 am . We hurry to the kids room only to find the room empty. "Fuck no where are our children?""I don't know, last night they were just here "The smoke detector was on but as we notice , there is no smoke or even a fire . Someone made the false alarm happen. We decide to look for the kids in all the rooms.Ten minutes later , there is no sign of even one kid. This is really bad , someone took our children. "Amanda call your mum , I'm calling the police" Miles shouts while ruffling his hair. My heart is thumbing so loudly and I bet Miles can hear it. Who took my poor babiesMum doesn't pick up her phone on the first two rings. Let's just hope she is okay ."Amanda it's fucking one in the morning. Why are
Unknown POVI have been observing the for more than three months now but I never acted . However today , I acted . I always thought with all their protectiveness and fame , my plan would have never succeeded.My plan at first was just to scare them but now I know they are terrified. The first thing I did was divert their attention towards something else , Tristan. I have known for a while that he is alive . According to how he was living I'd like to say he did not want to be found.When Tristan was presumed 'dead' I knew that was too hard to believe because the one I knew could not have just died that way . Two years later I came to find out that he is now living in South Africa and he was now a school teacher. That's so not like him, he had a girlfriend and an eight months old daughter. Bringing him back was so hard but I had to blackmail him so that he came. I had to use his daughter as a leverage for him to help me I guess his near death experience really changes him because the
Amanda POV "Miss P have you had anything so far?" "no I have not had anything, but I hope that I'll hear something because I'm already stressed right now"it has been 15 hours since I found out that my kids are missing, Miles is pacing upside down here I am sitting on the couch with my phone waiting for another ransom call or even a message or even a video of my kids to know that they're OK but I'm getting nothing. Ken, who came by when my parents came, has called like every investigator and detective that we know and those good ones. Nothing so far, most of them are saying they'll try and help but nothing so far.

UNKNOWN POV The first time I saw Amanda was about seven years ago, she was still so young. Her face lit up whenever she talked about anything. She had that beautiful innocent face; you know the dimples and all with minimal make up on. She was in her internship in the same company that I had been working for by then. I did not have the courage to talk to her because she was so confident, and she looked like she could not even go for a guy like me. By the time I had mastered the courage to ask her out, Tristan had already asked her out. I blamed him for that because he knew I liked her from the start, but he liked her too. For years I saw them happy, and it was painful for me to watch her happy with someone else. I always pretended to be happy for them but deep down I was heartbroken. In the next few years of their lives, I saw them happy, and they were so cheesy for my taste. Tristan knew all of this, but he still treated her badly, he still cheated and was so abusive to her after sh

“A custody battle is the next case Miss P " Eric my assistant informs me.“How many kids are involved?”“Two, a three years old boy and a seven months old girl”I always hate custody cases, mostly because kids are the ones that come to suffer because of their parents’ mistakes and at the end they have to stay with one parent. No kids deserve that. I stop what is doing and look at Eric, waiting for him to continue.“That’s all the information I have “I look at him questionably and start laughing knowing that he’s joking as always. When he maintains his serious face I knoWw he’s not joking“Why and how? “I ask astonished. I mean if you want assistance, you got to give out all the information required “who is filing for the battle?”“I actually don’t know, I only talked to the assistant who said that, her boss needs an appointment with you on custody battle of two kids. “He pauses and looks at his watch “and the client w

"Well that's just a pity for them, because that's their only legal company that was just about to make it" Ken says with a sighAfter telling her that Tristan is alive, she drove herself to my house and begun telling me how am so selfish, shutting myself from her and everyone else, that's true though, but an earful later here we are. "I know but we have to do that , we can't let them have anything""Yeah , so that they may lack money to help them cover up their unjust staff.""First we need to make sure the dad goes to prison for life, that will help reduce some of his allies.

It has been a week since I received that text. It has also been a week since I found out am pregnant. I was with Miles when I found out. He fainted.It has been four good days since I shut everyone out including Pearl. A week since I have seen anyone well apart from those on TV. After I received that message, I had to send everyone away for me to begin my work.Miles thought I was mad since I found out I was pregnant, I know these through his texts and voicemails, no one knows what the real reason is. I needed to do so to concentrate. Am almost finding the person behind the text.Tristan was a good boyfriend but once he found out I was pregnant, everything changed. He became abusive. Not physically though but through his words and actions. To the people on the outside, we were a happy couple, once we were alone, he was different. He fucked anything with a vagina since I refused to sleep with him once he became abusive.I could not bring myself to sleep with someone who judges my body
