As he stepped into the living room, he was greeted by the quietness of the house and he walked in slowly as he anticipated her presence. He saw Vivian walking into the living room and she walked over to meet him.

“Welcome home, sir,” she greeted.

“Where is Alex?” He asked with a deep voice.

“She is not yet back, sir,” she replied.

He kept silent and walked over to the stairs.

“Should I serve your lunch now?” She asked but he ignored her and walked away immediately.

After taking a shower, he dressed up in a white shirt and black shorts. He crawled into the bed and laid on his back tiredly as he gazed at the ceiling.

As the cold from the air conditioner swept through his skin, he exhaled deeply and dragged the duvet over his body. He looked at the wall clock and it was 1:09pm already. He needed to catch some sleep before she came back home in the evening, he thought as he shut his eyes slowly.

He yawned tiredly as he opened his eyes slowly. He has had a long sleep and his body f

    He stepped out of the elevator and hastened his steps as he walked over to the penthouse where he could see his father, sitting on the white lounge chair, making a phone call. He stood for a moment and waited for the call to end before walking over to meet him. The men at the penthouse made a slight bow as he walked over them to meet his father, who was sitting comfortably, donned in a white agbada. “You look troubled, what brings you here?” Mateo asked as he looked at his son whose black dress was soaked with perspiration as he stood in front of him. He heaved a sigh and looked away from him as he thought of how to place the words. “Adrian, what's going on?” Mateo asked anxiously. “Alex is missing,” he spilled with his back facing him. Silence fell in and Mateo stood up slowly with the aid of his walking stick. “What are you saying? Did I hear you clearly?” He asked with a chuckle as he shook his head in disbelief. He heaved a sigh again and turned to face him. “I went to he

    Her face broke into a warm smile as she stepped into the beautiful and well furnished chambers. She could see him sitting on the round red sofa with his back facing her. “Father,” she called and he turned towards her slowly.“Alex! Alex!” He exclaimed as he saw her face. He tried to stand up with the aid of his walking stick and she hurried over to meet him. She dropped her bag on the couch and supported him. “Alex, where have you been?” His emotional voice sounded and she broke into tears at once.“Father, I’m so sorry,” she cried as he wrapped his arms around her shoulders slowly.“What happened?” He asked and she raised her face to look at him.“It’s a long story,” she sniffed as she wiped the tears off her face.“I have all the time,” he said while looking into her eyes.*He gulped the water mercilessly and threw the plastic bottle across the car window. The sun was blazing so hot and he could feel his whole body soaked in perspiration. He heaved a sigh as he looked across the b

    He poured the drink in the glass recklessly as he wiped his lips. Several bottles of alcoholic drinks could be seen, scattered on the table before him. Slow music could also be heard playing in the background as people walked slowly around the club. As the club lights reflected on his face, tears could be seen dripping down his cheek as he sat at one end of the club, drinking himself to stupor. How could he? How could his father let Alex go? He thought. Yes, all he ever wanted was to be free from her, but right now, it all felt too sudden and it was a big bone in his chest which he was finding so hard to digest. Was he going to let her leave this way? He thought as he rubbed his palm over his head in frustration. “Alex is married to me, not my father. Alex is mine and no one can take her away from me!” He voiced confidently as he dropped the glass violently on the table and stormed out of the club. The heavy rain could be seen lashing against the Porsche as it stopped in front

    “Sam! Get the bottle!” She yelled as she grabbed hold of his hand and they both began to struggle. The men ran over to them and they all overpowered him and took the piece of bottle away from his hand. “No.! No!..,” he cried as his knees crumbled to the ground and he began to weep uncontrollably. She began to pant heavily with her white dress stained over with blood. She knelt beside him and placed her hand around his shoulder slowly. She made his head rest on her chest as she caressed his thick arms slowly. “It’s going to be fine, it will all be fine,” she consoled emotionally as she tried to conceal her tears. Everyone watched in silence and no one dared say a word. “Madam Vivi, we would be needing a first aid box to attend to his wound,” She said to Vivian. “Yes, Sara will help you with that, while Bose and I will fix the room,” the old lady said. “I’ll go get the first aid box,” Sara said as she walked out of the room and the men followed after her. The moment became silen

    She felt an acrid pain in her head as she opened her eyes. With her palm resting on her forehead, she looked around the room and her mouth opened in dismay and she sat up right immediately. She looked at her body and she could see the brown duvet spread over her waist down to her legs. Her heart cringed as she recalled everything that had happened last night. She looked at the other side of the bed and she could see Adrian lying peacefully on the bed with the duvet spread over his body. The moments of last night sprang up in her head again and she began to recall how he had made love to her last night. It was nothing but a night full of pleasure as he had made sure to be gentle with her. She couldn’t believe such a cold hard hearted man would be so gentle and soft within. She had enjoyed every one of his touches and kisses and a smile appeared on her lips as she recalled those moments. She took a slow glance at him again and she wondered what he would do when he woke up and found he

    They stepped out of the elevator and walked into the glass penthouse which was swimming in so much luxury. With his arms wrapped around her waist, they walked slowly to the portable well furnished room and he kept on making jokes as they walked. She couldn’t help but laugh as he led her into the room and he pulled away from her. “It’s beautiful here,” she said with a smile as she looked around the room which had a king sized bed, large beautiful curtains, and other beautiful aesthetic components. He watched as she walked over to the view with her face beaming with a smile and her body resting against the glass wall. “You like it,?” He asked and she nodded with a smile as she walked over to the bed. “Come over here,” he urged with a hoarse voice and she giggled as she walked over to him and he made her sit on his legs. Just then, Vivian walked into the room with Bose following behind her, both carrying trays of food. They both pulled a surprise face with their gaze fixed on Alex w

    “I began to notice her long midnight chats and calls. I peeped into her chat box one day, and I saw her romantic chats with a man named Lisandro. I never spoke to her about it and I had to hire a private investigator named Scot. He dug into the young man’s profile and he found out he was her ex boyfriend who lives in Mexico. I was flabbergasted, I was grief-stricken, I was crushed. I couldn’t bear the fact that my beloved wife turned out to be exactly like my devilish mother, Amelia. I never spoke a word about it to her and I continued to bond with my baby Isabel. And you know, all through those times, I never cheated on Barbara, nor laid a hand on her. I continued to be patient, hoping my beloved wife would change if I continued to shower her love. But I lost all that patience in one day” he said as a wry smile appeared on his lips. “I was supposed to go on a business trip to Atlanta. But our flight was canceled and I decided to return home. On getting home, I met the shock of my

    Their laughter could be heard as they stepped into the living room, with his hand wrapped around her waist. The maids lined up in the living room as they watched with amusement on their faces. “Come, let me show you something in the room,” he whispered into her ears and she laughed. “I’ll join you later, just go upstairs and let me fix dinner,” she said as she turned to face him. “No, we’ve had a long day. I guess Vivian made us dinner already, right Vivian?” He asked as he looked at the old lady who was watching them with a smile on her face. “Yes, I did,” she replied with amusement. “You see? Come on, let’s go upstairs,” he urged as he dragged her hands along with him. She smiled and turned to look at the ladies as Adrian pushed her towards the stairs. She winked at them and made a signal with her hands and they all nodded. “Now that Alex has finally found a place in the master’s heart, do you think she will still consider us as friends?” Bose asked sadly. “Probably she will

    They broke free from the hug as they heard Adrian clearing his throat behind them."You just can't be patient," Alex said with a chuckle and they all laughed."I didn't stay all that long without you just for you to return and keep me waiting to have you," he said as he pulled her forcefully to himself. She landed on his chest and they all laughed."Maria, I want to say thank you once again. As long as I would want you to stay, I still cannot force you against your decision to go in search of Elena's father. But I want you to know that, if you ever need anything, we are just only a call away. We are your family," he said with all sincerity.She smiled broadly and nodded."Thank you," she muttered."Now go back inside and party," Alex urged."While I take this beautiful woman of mine inside," he said as he carried her up in a bridal style."Inside of where? Stop!" Alex cried as she banged his chest."Shh, we will go through the back door so you don't get disturbed again," he said and s

    The mansion began to bustle with people moving to and fro. The news of Alex Steel being alive was one of the most discussed topics on the internet.As they walked into the house, she could see her mother and father running over to give her a hug. They weren't present at the court, only her friends came from the village to witness the hearing."Oh, I can't believe my daughter is alive!!" Mrs Bimpe cried as she and her husband locked her tightly in a warm embrace."I'm so sorry mom, I'm so sorry for not reaching out to you," she cried."Your mother almost passed away. You could have reached out!" Her father cried loudly."It's enough, father, all that matters is that she is alive. Safe and a little bit healthy," Maiden said with a smile from where she stood before them."Yes, my daughter is alive," Mrs Bimpe cried again."I'm glad we didn't conduct a burial for you. Adrian wouldn't let us conduct a burial ceremony because he believed you will one day come back to him," her father contin

    There was tension in court as the two women were dragged to the accused box where they both stood giving mean stares to each other. The courtroom was filled to the brim. Members of the press were also present to cover the event. The case happened to be one of the most discussed cases in the whole of the country as everyone was eagerly waiting to see the outcome of these vicious women who became internet sensations after their arrests concerning the murder of Alex Steel. In the audience were Natasha, Adrian and their friends who were all seated at the front row. The charges were read and the defense and prosecution lawyers swung into action as they defended their clients logically. "My lord, I've pleaded guilty. All I'm asking is for this bitch to be arrested alongside me. She committed the crime together with me and she shouldn't be exonerated!" Barbara fumed with her mean eyes tearing through Amelia. "Shut up, you bastard! You're only trying to drag me into the mess you created. H

    The Land cruiser jeep could be seen slowing down as it moved along the untarred road which was covered with portholes. From the black Acura where they leaned, they could see the Land cruiser approaching and they both stood up right with their hands in their pockets as they stood gallantly waiting for the car to stop. The car stopped a few meters away from them. The door opened and Amelia stepped out of the car, dressed gallantly in black biker jacket and jeans. She took off her dark glasses as she walked towards the women who were waiting impatiently for her. "Oh, such a lovely wonderful morning. It's not even up to seven o'clock yet. Are we good?" She asked as opened her arms wide with a smirk appearing on her face. "What did you do?" Barbara asked as she gave her a mean look. "What did I do? I saw your pictures all over the internet last night. I should be asking you, what did you do?" She asked with a smirk as she brought out a stick of cigarette which she placed in between he

    Police sirens could be heard as the vehicles sped into the mansion which was all lit up that night. He jumped out of the car as soon as it came to a halt and the heavily armed policemen could be seen running behind him as they all stormed into the building. His heavy breathing could be heard as he burst through the door which was left unlocked. "Search around the rooms down here, I will go upstairs with the rest of the men," he ordered as he proceeded to the stairs with some of the men marching behind him. His heart began to race as he stepped into the master bedroom and found the whole place empty. He let out a sigh of frustration and stormed out of the room angrily. He could see some of the policemen walking towards him from the other side of the passage. "All clear," the officers reported. "Fuck!" He cursed as he hurried down the stairs with the men. "Mr Steel, I'm afraid, they've escaped," the officer in charge revealed and his face pulled into a frown. "With my last breat

    Looking outside the car window, she could see her walking to the car, dressed smartly in a navy blue kimono dress and black heels. The door opened and she stepped into the car with the door shutting behind her. The window glass rolled up and she took off her sunglasses and heaved a sigh. "What is the reason you called me here?" She asked as she watched her take off her glasses. "My sister is plotting to kill you," she spilled with her eyes looking forward. Silence fell in for a moment and her brows gathered deeply as she stared at the side of her face. "And why are you telling me this?" She asked thoughtfully. "Because I don't want it to get bloody any more. Enough of the killings. I didn't come all the way here from Mexico to spill blood. I need you to be careful," she warned in a low tone. She kept silent and heaved a sigh as she looked away from her face. "I know she will try to prove smart again. She loves proving to be the smart one," she said with a smirk as she let out a

    With the heavy breeze blowing across his face, he walked along the sandy shore, barefooted with his eyes fixed on the water where he could see several boats and fishermen mending their nets. "Baby J, we are here," he said as he kissed the baby's cheek and dropped him on the sand. He chuckled as he watched Junior play excitedly on the sand while making squeaky sounds followed by giggles. He heaved a sigh and unbuttoned the first two buttons of his blue vintage short sleeve shirt as he sat on the sand, staring into the water. "Come over here, J," he called as he pulled the baby to himself and made him sit in between his legs. They both stayed that way, staring into the water as people walked past them. "I've always believed that one day, the water will bring your mommy back to me," he said with a chuckle. "I still have that hope. Alex will come back to me," he said as his eyes began to well up with tears. ** Settled in a boat far at a distance from the shore where he sat, she re

    She hurried out of the passage and climbed onto the balcony where she stood, pacing around. She could have been caught by Amelia, thank God for the tea story, she thought as she gave a sigh. She reached for her phone and looked around carefully before dialing the number. "Alex, it's Nat. I found a drawer which is tightly locked and I can't find the key to it. I have a strong feeling that what we are looking for is right in there," she said in whispers. "Did you search all the nooks and crannies?" She asked from the phone. "Yes I did and she almost bumped into me in the act," she related anxiously. "Search her bags, her personal bag. The one she moves with often. It's got to be in there," she assured. "Um, okay," she muttered uneasily. "Nat, you need to be fast. Since she almost caught you in the act there is no way she won't have her suspicions. You need to act quickly to lay your hand on that envelope before she moves it out of its place," she said. "Um..I'm thinking of a way t

    PRESENT "That is the story of how I survived. And right now, Maria and I are making plans on how to get back at those people. I need to make them suffer and pay dearly for all they did to me. That's the reason I reached out to Natasha. I believe she will be able to help us out," she related as she sniffed and wiped the tears that trickled down her cheek. "I'm glad you reached out to me too, I've been wearing myself out, mourning you day and night," Madison said with empathy. "I'm sorry I had to stay hidden for so long. It took me months to be healed from the traumas of that horrible night. It took me a lot to recover fully," she explained. "I get it perfectly, Alex. And I promise you will get justice. Right now, we need to do all we can to protect Junior," she said. "Junior will be fine. Barbara would never come near him," Maria assured.
