Harry got to his room and paused at the door. He suddenly remembered the anonymous call he got before the attack. The voice didn't sound familiar so he couldn't tell the corps about it and he's sure that whoever called used a burner phone. He slowly walked into the room, scrutinizing every corner till he got to the spot where he fell. It had been cleaned up but the broken glass still remains. He sighed, dropping the file on his King-size bed. For now he would forget about this and focus more on Charles. Celeb is right about one thing, whoever is doing this, isn't just coming after him alone. Fot the fact that Charles got hurt, it means that the person is going after people he's encountered as well. He won't let anything happen to Charles as he has nothing to do with his past life. He's been a good friend and nothing but helpful for the past two years.Harry ruffled his hair, standing infront of the mirror. He started unbuttoning his shirt till he got to the last one and then pulled
They finally arrived at the hospital and Gemila was quick to leave the car. Harry chuckled as he watched her rush into the hospital, ignoring his presence. He slowly got out of the car, locking it before walking into the hospital. He saw Gemila talking to the nurse at the receptionist so he waited for her to be done. Gemila sighted Harry at a corner and sighed, focusing her attention on the nurse. She really felt embarrassed that Harry had caught her masturbating in his own house. She actually felt thankful she locked the doors before starting.“Charles Freeman right?" The nurse asked and Gemila bounced her head. “He's in room 045Z, it's the first room by your left at the second floor." The nurse said politely with a small smile.“Thank you." Gemila said turning away from the desk. She faced Harry, turning her head slightly to the left to show him the direction they'll be taking and he got the message she's trying to pass. They both headed upstairs with Gemila infront, following the
They finally got back into the room and it seems they are not the only ones to engage in a tete a tete. Charles and Harry stopped talking the moment they got in to show they too were also having a serious discussion. “So what do we do now? We can't just stay here like this." Yasmine asked looking at Harry. “How long have you been in here?" Harry asked Charles. He thought I'd be good to let him have some fresh air since he's done with the alkaline dextrose infusion that was given to him hours ago. “Since I woke up of course. I've only left to use the restroom. Why?" Charles asked. “Chloe, go ask the nurse for a wheelchair. It's time to leave this room for a bit." Harry said to Gemila yet his gaze remained on Charles. Gemila almost rolled her eyes before leaving the room. She's his personal assistant at his company not at a hospital. He can't just give her orders like that. She's only going because it involves Charles and she would do anything to make his recovery faster. Charles
Gemila got to the car, turning around to look at the hospital one more time before getting in. Harry is already in, waiting for her.He started the engine immediately as she strapped her seatbelt on. “You good?" He asked with a straight face. Gemila bounced her head and he drove off immediately.Yasmine got out of the hospital not long. On seeing that they've already gone, she decided to stand and wait for a taxi. Shortly, a taxi stopped infront of her and she got into the back seat.“Little Dominican republic please." She said to the man, strapping her seatbelt and he gave her a slight nod before driving off. ....The drive back was as quiet as the drive while coming. Gemila waited patiently for Harry to reach her street so he could finally get off her hair. She needed to clear her head, to get herself together and decide what to do next. She's having too many thoughts and emotions at the same time that she's almost loosing her mind. She shook her head slightly, returning her f
Gemila held her breath as his face was too close to hers. Her heart began beating too fast, she thought she was going to have a heart attack.“Wh-what are you doing?" She stuttered, avoiding his eyes.“You need to calm down. I'll explain why you can't go home but not here, please." Harry pleaded and she was forced to look into his eyes. Did she hear right? Did he just say please? She could tell he's being sincere right now, his eyes said it all. They were practically begging her to comply. She sighed, shutting her eyes briefly.“Fine, I'll wait. You can move away now." She muttered and he smiled slightly, nodding his head before releasing her from his cage. She starting walking back to his car and he followed behind, shaking his head slightly.‘What an evening Harry.' He said to himself, chucking slightly. Gemila turned back with a frown.“What's funny?" She asked as she could see a smile on his handsome face.“Nothing." He said sharply, returning that poker face of his. Gemila shoo
Gemila opened her mouth to speak but no words seem to form. She wanted to tell him her reason for coming here so he wouldn't think she's looking for attention or something else. She just wish he would move away a little bit, that would make her more comfortable as their closeness now is just too tempting.“Are you dumb or what?" Harry frowned when she didn't say anything. His gaze fell on the file and he bent slightly, picking them up.Gemila used that opportunity to speak up. She felt like his intimidating gaze was boring through her body into her soul and all she needed was for him to look away a bit for her to get her composure back.“I..I'm hungry." She finally voiced out and Harry looked up immediately. He raised himself up with the file in his hand, frowning a bit.“I came here... because I'm hungry." She added.Harry chuckled, shaking his head unbelievably. This woman never ceases to amaze him. “You are hungry, is that it?" He asked and she nodded immediately, keeping her gaze
Gemila tied the handle of the apron firmly behind her back, facing Harry with a smile.“What are we making?" She asked, walking to the other side of the counter. “Whatever you want to make." Harry replied plainly. He is still asking himself why he agreed to even cook with her. There's just something about her that he can't seem to put his finger on.“Pancakes!" Gemila screamed, smiling like a Barbie doll. Harry chuckled at her cuteness. He never knew food could make her this happy. It reminded him of his time with Gemila, when she would sit on the kitchen counter, watching him cook for her. She gets super excited and keeps laughing and giggling at the slightest comment he makes. A frown settled on his face at the memory of her.“You okay?" Gemila asked as she noticed his frown. He quickly shook his head, smiling slightly.“Let's get to work." He said bringing out a big bowl from the cupboard and placing it on the counter. Gemila watched as he brought out the flour, spatula, milk, sug
Using her screen light, Gemila gently shut the door behind her, walking further into Harry's room. She had seen him keeping the file on the chair close to the dresser so she just walked straight to the dresser with the help of the dim light from her phone screen. She spotted the file just the way Harry kept it. She smiled, crouching down and picking up the file. She opened it, bringing out all the documents this time. She immediately unlocked her phone, tapping on the camera and began snapping the documents one after the other. She would read them later. Once she snapped the last document, she quickly inserted them back into the file, neatly placing it on the chair like Harry did. One thing she learnt from watching action movies is that you never leave evidence when doing something illegally, not that what she's doing is illegal but she has to be smart or else Harry would definitely know she was here. Gemila smiled satisfactory, standing up from her squatting position. She couldn't b
“Is she ever going to wake up?" Yasmine asked worriedly.“She's not dead, just asleep." Gemita chuckled as they watched Gemila's sleeping face.She finally stirred, a frown on her face as she held her head.“She's finally waking up." Yasmine sighed.Gemila groaned as she held her head. It felt so heavy and ached really bad.“Make it stop." She groaned holding her head.“Does your head hurt?" Gemita asked placing a hand on her head.“Make it stop." Gemila repeated. “I'll go make her tea or coffee." Gemita said and left the room immediately.Yasmine kept watching her until she finally opened her eyes.Gemila kept her eyes open as her vision was blurry at first. Soon it began clearing up and she saw Yasmine's smiling face.“How do you feel?" Yasmine asked with a smile.“Like my head is about to explode." Gemila groaned and began scrutinizing her environment. She furrowed her brows as she couldn't recognize the room. “Where am I?" She asked with a frown.“Your room of course." Yasmine s
Charles swiftly parked infront of the building, coming out immediately to open the door for his wife Yasmine.Yasmine smiled lovingly at him as she alighted the vehicle, placing a hand on her baby bump.The backdoor opened and a ten year old Lucas ran out of the car straight to the front door of the building.“Lucas slow down or you might fall!" Yasmine called out but Lucas didn't stop until he got to the door, ringing the doorbell severally.“That kid would be the death of me." Yasmine chuckled as they both walked to the front door.The moment the door creaked open, Lucas smiled brightly before jumping into Gemila's arms.“Aunt Mila!" He exclaimed, hugging her tight.“Lucas! Oh good heavens how you've grown." Gemila smiled brightly, hugging him tight. They finally broke the hug and her gaze fell on the couple behind Lucas.“Yasmine." Gemila smiled as she hugged Yasmine gently though because of her big bump.“Oh how I've missed you." Yasmine smiled before breaking the hug.“Nice seein
It's been three weeks now and Charles is finally getting discharged. Yasmine had left the hospital to get the baby stroller Gemila had bought months ago when they went baby shopping. She returned to the hospital to meet Charles at the waiting room. “Hey." She smiled brightly as she walked closer to him, placing a soft kiss on his cheek.“I'm guessing that's for Lucas." Charles smiled as he looked at the stroller.“Is there any other baby you have that I don't know of?" Yasmine asked jokingly and they both laughed.The nurse finally brought Lucas, perfectly healthy now to his parents. Yasmine smiled brightly as she carried her baby for the first time since she woke up from her coma.Her eyes became wet and this time she allowed the tears flow freely.“Hey there little guy. I'm your mummy." She sniffed. She raised her head to look at Charles and he had that same bright smile.“Let's go home." Charles said and Yasmine bounced her head before placing Lucas in the stroller.“I wish Gemila
Gemila smiled the moment she entered their living room. It was very spacious, just the way she liked it and the walls were painted white, making it look like some heavenly home. The white sofas adorned the area along with the beautiful glass center table and the white flower vest housing beautiful rose flowers.She diverted her gaze to the artistic paintings on the wall and a smile plastered on her face. This house is even more beautiful than that of New York that got burnt down.“Where is father?" Gemita suddenly asked, bringing Gemila's attention to the present.“He is napping. Should I get you something to eat or drink?" Madam Frida asked.“Sisy would you like anything?" Gemita asked Gemila.“No, I'm fine. I just can't wait to meet dad." Gemila smiled and Gemita faced Joel.“What about you honey?" She asked him and Joel smiled lovingly at her.“Yes, I'll have any cold beverage." He said and Madam Frida bounced her head before leaving them.“She's a really nice lady." Gemila compli
Gemila zipped her box after packing few clothes she'll be needing. She sighed as she looked around her room. A lot has happened within this past months and she's happy things are finally getting better.“Gemila are you done?" Gemita called from downstairs.“Yes I'm coming down now." Gemila replied and carried her box out of the room. Gemita was waiting with Joel.“Alright let's hit the road." Gemita said with a smile and they all left the house to the hospital. Gemila wanted to say her goodbyes to Yasmine first before leaving.“I'm really going to miss this city." Gemita chuckled.“You can always come visit, its not like you're leaving forever." Gemila said with a smile.They got to the hospital and Gemila and Gemita went in since Joel decided to wait for them in the car.Yasmine was already out of bed when they got to her room.“Where did she go?" Gemila frowned and immediately went to the nurse to ask for Yasmine's whereabouts.“Oh, miss Lopez went to see her baby." The nurse replie
They immediately took him back to their suite, tying him to a chair.Zina brought out her gun, strapping it behind her just incase he tries anything funny while Cheng packed up their stuff. There wasn't any need staying since they had already accomplished what they came here for.“How said that our honeymoon got caught short." Cheng chuckled before standing up with the bag.“We can always go on a vacation next time." Zina smiled facing Linus.“You have been pretty busy this year Linus. What's your last name anyways?" Zina asked but Linus didn't say anything.“What? You're not going to talk? It's over already. All your men are in prison and so will you the moment we leave this place so I suggest you start talking." Zina said with a frown but Linus still kept quiet. He was actually secretly trying to free himself with a little razor. He was slowly cutting the rope from behind.“He's gonna talk one way or the other. Let's get out of here." Cheng said bringing out the handcuffs to cuff L
The moment the elevator doors opened, a scowl plastered on Zina's face. There were so many rooms in the neverending hallway.“How on earth are we supposed to find him in this place?" Zina asked still carrying the scowl on her face.“Do you think I brought us here to fail? All we need to do is plant cameras in every hallway and monitor it to see which room he's staying at." Cheng replied with a smile, stretching his arm for Zina.“How smart of you." Zina smiled taking his hand and led her out of the elevator and into the hallways to search for their room. They finally found it and settled in, awaiting nightfall....Gemila sighed as she walked into the court building again for Harry's second trial. She wanted to skip it as she didn't want to hear more of his crimes but she had no choice than to go as she still needed to pled to the judge to let the company stay open.“Here goes nothing." She muttered before opening the double doors, revealing the court room. As usual it was already
Zina chuckled as she watched the security footage being shown to her by detective Cheng. It was a footage of Linus checking into a private hotel.“I don't get it. Why would he check into a hotel knowing fully well that we are after him?" Zina asked with furrowed brows.“I guess he had no other choice. After all we did capture all his clan members plus he's injured. Going to a hospital for treatment wasn't an option for him." Cheng said as he covered the laptop.“So what now? Do we get a SWART team or something?" Zina asked impatiently.“We would do that but we first need to confirm if this is a trap. We'll go in alone." Cheng said with a smile.“It's a private hotel. Do you think they'll let two police detectives in?" Zina frowned.“Who said anything about going in as police officers?" Cheng winked at her but Zina was still confused. “Can you please enlighten me on the plan?" She asked with a slight frown.“We call the swart team to stand by and then we go in as couples checking in.
Gemila reluctantly got out of the car and entered into the building. Others may call her crazy and maybe they are right. She's indeed crazy. Falling for him was her first mistake and now she's trying to save his company. Love does make people do stupid things.“Good day ma'am." One of the prison guards greeted the moment she entered the building. He had a name tag like everyone else so it wasn't necessary to ask for his name.“Good day Louis, I'm here to see a prisoner." Gemila said politely.“Everyone comes here to see the prisoners." Louis chuckled, removing his hat.“Whom might that be?" “Harry Robinson." Gemila replied immediately. The man furrowed his brows at her but still ordered another guard to take her to Harry. “Follow me ma'am." The second guard with a name tag Donk said to her as he led her to Harry's prison. Gemila felt uneasy as they went further into the passage. Several prison bars could be seen, each housing one or two prisoner. She tried her best to avoid eye c
