I was surprised when I saw my phone ring and it was Jack calling, I remembered what he did and chucked I didn't want to pick his call because I was still mad at him.

    I didn't even noticed when they came back, not until their foot steps got loud. I looked up and saw Jack holding Clara on her waist while his other hand rested on her shoulder. I gave him a frowned, and he responded with a confused look on his face that was like asking me what was wrong. They finally sat down on the chair opposite me and Jack was still holding her waist, I wondered what his problem and motive was. Clara wasn't helping either, she rested her head on Jack's shoulder comfortably, not minding the fact that her boss was there. " Why do I care anyways? " I thought and rolled my eyes at them, crossing my leg fixing my eyes on my phone, but I wasn't doing anything instead I kept on taking glances at them. I could tell Clara was enjoying the slight cuddle she was getting from Jack. For a moment, I imagined how it was going to feel if I was the one actually holding her waist like the way Jack was doing, and if she rest on my shoulder like that without resisting. I smiled,

The location was quite a distance though, it was in the middle of a thick forest which wasn't familiar to me. I had to park my car by the side of the road, and walked to the building with Danielle. She was sweating profusely right now, she appeared to be weak and was loosing lot of blood. I didn't care less, she could die for all I care. As we got nearer, I pulled her in front of me, just in case there was anyone about to shoot. I would use her as my covering. The opened by itself, seems like it was being controlled from a room or something.Some of my dad's men were standing at different corners of the building, but no one dared to shoot.

When they saw me approaching, they began to shoot at me. Unfortunately for them, they weren't skillful in handling guns, I was a pro. I shot all of them while I was still inside my car. As I drew closer to the gate, I looked around making sure that none of my dad men was outside. After being satisfied, I went into the compound. There were about a dozen of corpse on the floor and more were still dropping dead. As I went further, I observed that most of them were my dad's men and I was pleased.

    There were about fifteen cars parked outside, with Leo men surrounding the cars, while others were still inside. I hoped silently that Leo didn't call them for protection. I felt it might be quite embarrassing for me and would likely draw more attention to us. Both on the roads and in the school.I was still peeking through the window, when the door opened and Leo step in briskly. I tried as much as possible pretend that I hadn't been peering, but there was no way I could possibly hide it. "Get prepared, my men would be escorting us to school." Just as I had thought, Leo had called his men for protection.To me, I felt it wasn't necessary and only shows that Leo was a bit scared. But I guess it was because, he knew his father was unpredictable and might likely do something worst. Leo wore his uniform and left the room while I prepared. When I got outside, I was treated like a queen, as Leo men followed me to the car which Leo was in. The moment the door opened, a wide smile appe

As I got closer to the kitchen, there were noises coming from the kitchen as the maids were talking out loudly."I guess they have finally been released" I muttered to myself. I decided not to look at any of them to avoid being angered again, but to my greatest dismay, they all greeted me the moment I stepped my foot into the kitchen. For some seconds, I was taken a back. In fact, I got shock and could feel my heart beat faster than normal. I stood motionlessly, glancing at each of them and still couldn't believe that they just greeted me including Agnes.Clueless about what to do or how to respond, I only feigned an obvious fake smile and hurriedly left the kitchen, going through the door that leads to the maid quarters. It suddenly occurred to me that I should have probably asked then about Danielle, but it was late no

Luckily, it was Clara; she was still unconscious and laid on the bed peacefully, completely unaware of her surroundings.I noticed some part of her clothes has been messed with, Jack was lucky to have escaped from me today. If I had gotten hold of him, he would have been in the world of the dead by now. I removed my black jacket, wrapping it around Clara's exposed body. I have never seen her in something this sexy, but I must admit that she looked really hot and could drive a man crazy just by staring at her. While lifting her up, I heard her mumble some words and also speak gibberish. I was certain that, she had mentioned my name. While I went back home, I ordered Joe to find out the owner of the hotel. I carried Clara and my laps, while her head rested on my chest as Joe drove us home. I stared at her, stroking her hair continuously, it was difficult to imagine what I woul

    "Where the hell is Clara?" I yelled at the security guards, getting closer to the gate. The moment they heard my voice, they suddenly rushed outside and lined up in a straight line. They bowed their heads while I questioned them, but it only made me more furious. I needed someone to look me in the eye and tell me Clara's whereabout, but none of them where saying anything. The youngest among all the security guard, was standing close to me. I grabbed him by his collar and threatened to kill him, if he refuses to speak up. "Sir, I really don't know. She has been indoors and hadn't crossed this gate today," He said with a shaky voice.My phone began to ring out and I quickly let go of his collar, bringing out the phone to check the caller. It was an unknown number and I was reluctant to pick up. On a second thought, I decided to answer it, considering the fact that Clara was missing.

I took the gown off my face and scrutinize it carefully.The first thing I observed was that, the gown was short and it was sleeveless. I wasn't comfortable with wearing this type of cloth and I made it known to Danielle, but she insisted. "The security? What are we going to do with them?"
