While they were still contemplating on where to start their investigation,the doorbell rang.

" I'll get that, " Ava said, walking downstairs. Looking through the peephole,they saw Lucia's parents standing at the door,worry evident in their eyes. She opened the door and offered them a polite smile.

" Aunty, uncle you are here." She greeted with a bow.

" Yeah,we came as soon as we got the letter. What's happening here my daughter?" Mrs Mendez asked. To her,the four Ladies passed as her daughters.

" A letter? From Who?" Ava asked, puzzled.

" From Ezekiel. He said he wanted to officially break the engagement and set Lucia free. He also talked about taking care of his daughter for him." Mrs Mendez replied.

" It seems he was really prepared to leave." Ava mumbled but her words were caught by Mr Mendez.

" What do you mean dear, where is he going and why does he have to cancel the engagement if he would be coming back." Mr Mendez asked, puzzled.

Now that we have found Ezekiel,I think we should leave the couple alone. I am sure they have a lot to say to each other." Miranda finally proposed and they all agreed. Minutes later, only Ezekiel and Lucia remained in the house." Why honey. Why didn't you tell me?" Lucia tried to gather her composure and try not to break down in front of Ezekiel.

Ava shouted in the loudest of her voice.The group of four besties were having the night of their life.Miranda Lambert, CEO of the Lambert group. Ava Adams, The country's top model with the highest fan base. Lucia Mendez, the country's sought after designer and Stacy Carl's,the CEO of Hope group of hospitals and a world wide famous surgeon." Dare!" Miranda made the choice she would regret in less than 12 hours.How could they ask her such a question? they were supposed to be her friends after all.Dating Carlos? Even she wanted to date him but the guy blatantly rejected her advances saying she's more masculine than him.That had been a huge blow to her ego.Yes,she admits that she dresses like a man but that doesn't mean she's a man." Kiss the closest man wearing red." Lucia gave the verdict with a smirk on her face.Their friend was already 26 years old yet she has never kissed anyone.The two friends erupted into laught

    The three girls walked at a fast pace trying to catch up with Miranda who was for some reason making huge strides towards the parking lot of the club without looking back nor slowing to wait for them.Today being a Friday,the four girls had decided to take time out of their busy schedules and have a girl's day out. Miranda had suggested they book a private room at a hotel and hang out there but the rest didn't agree with her idea." Who goes to have fun in a hotel Mira, we aren't going for a business meeting you know!" That was Lucia's reply to her suggestions." I wanna blow off some steam and get to treat my eyes with some sexy bodies and where else can I do that except for a club?" Came Ava's reply joining Lucia to reject Miranda's absurd suggestion." I wanna loosen up to some good music and a little dance so there's no way I'm going to a hotel,it's not like I'm going on a dinner date with my boyfriend. I might as well find a good gigolo to get laid tonight." Stacy offered her rea

    Just as the three were about to intersect,the car came to a screeching halt sending the girls flying in different directions especially Miranda and Stacy who were seated at the back. They had their heads knocked at the front passenger seats. It was a good thing the two ladies at the front passenger seat had their belts secured." Damn it! Who did we offend tonight to keep messing with us?" Ava asked, obviously angry.Looking ahead,they saw a car parked In front of them. For some reason,the girls panicked worried if they have landed themselves kidnappers.While they were contemplating on what to do next,a young man stepped down from the sports car and started heading towards their car. Ava who was good at scrutinising people did not sense any malice from his leaking Aura. On the contrary,he seemed amicable but that did not stop her from fuming at him after he pulled that stunt on them.Ava was sure if she was the one driving tonight,then tomorrow's news would be painted with the pictur

Stacy would at times be forced by circumstances especially Incase of an emergency surgery.Ava was still lying in bed but her thoughts had drifted to that encounter last night. She felt disturbed by his smirking face.Yes she had acted on impulse but that is because that man's closeness brought about a weird feeling. When he leaned towards her, she smelt an enticing fragrance. That scent almost paralyzed her nerves. She had fought hard from sniffing him because that's what she felt like doing so as to keep her sanity,she chose offence over submission." What are you thinking about?" Stacy asked, drawing back her attention from that annoying Man." What else,she must be thinking about that handsome hulk she slapped last night." Lucia said. Among all the three friends, she was the Keen observer and she didn't need anyone to tell her what their fri

Justin replied in a bored voice." Absurd! Does that change the fact that you are of royal blood? is this how the prince of this kingdom plans to lead his life? scandal after scandal?" His father reprimanded but in a softer voice." You know me father,I don't have anything to do with those women. I plan to follow your footsteps."

Who could have thought that the mighty King of the entertainment industry would come to her doorstep.Composing herself,she opened the door smiling at the visitor."How can I help you?" she politely asked.

" Meet me at my private Villa by the beach tonight."Arriving at the office,he called his secretary to give him a few instructions." I have transferred ten percent of the company shares to your name. I am resigning and never coming back. Please be here to guide the person who will take over after me and probably when my heir finally succeeds, support him too. Take care of yourself and your young madam while I am away." Ezekiel instructed his secretary to widen his eyes in astonishment." Boss,are you going anywhere? Why don't you let me accompany you?" He asked. After working with Ezekiel for years,he had gotten used to him. Their relationship

    Ezekiel thanked the doctor for keeping his health condition from Lucia but the doctor informed him that he did it for her. Seeing that she was pregnant and knew nothing about his condition,he decided to keep it a secret from her. He then urged him to break the news to her because according to his diagnosis,he barely had two months to live. Ezekiel assured him that he would definitely discuss the matter with Lucia and thanked him yet again before leaving to Join Lucia who was waiting for him in the waiting lobby." That took you a long time to just say thank you." Lucia commented. He had been gone for fifteen minutes which according to her was a long time for just a thank you." He was occupied and I had to wait for him." Ezekiel replied casually trying to keep a straight face. Lucia didn't probe further and dropped the topic. She was so exhausted and jet lagged that she went to bed immediately after they got home.After ensuring that she was asleep, Ezekiel took his phone and went to

    Tomorrow marked the second week of their long vacation. Ezekiel was very secretive of their last destination. He told Lucia that it was meant to be a surprise for them and he didn't reveal until they were receiving their boarding pass. Upon checking their last visiting destination, Lucia's eyes widened with both surprise and excitement. Of all places, Ezekiel decided to close their vacation by taking her to Africa and precisely to Kenya,her dream country." Honey,did you do this on purpose?" She asked,tears of happiness streaming down without restraint. Ste was deeply touched by his consideration. Along the way he had taken her to places sfe wished to visit but she never in her wildest dreams think that he would take her to visit Kenya as their last destination. She couldn't help but kiss him In Front of the people." This was supposed to be our vacation, not just mine. I have known for a long time that you have always dreamt of visiting that country so I chose it as our last destinat

    The following morning, Ezekiel was the first to wake up. By the time Lucia woke up,she found Ezekiel ready with two packed suitcases." Good morning my Queen." Ezekiel greeted pecking her lips." Morning." Lucia replied, eyeing him then added," going somewhere?" She inquired. Yesterday,he didn't mention going anywhere. What was more surprising was the fact that one of the suitcases belonged to her." Yes,we are going somewhere." Ezekiel replied with a smile on his face. After last night,he figured out that before going to meet his maker,he might as well fulfil some of the wishes piled up. He had always wanted to tour the world with the woman he loved. He still had like three weeks before completely losing his sight,he might as well take advantage of that available time and fulfil that wish." You didn't mention something about that yesterday!" Lucia stated." I decided on it overnight. I want to take you on a vacation as we tour the world together. After this month,I'll be busy with c

    Lucia had this unsettling feeling that something was up with Ezekiel but she couldn't say what exactly. How did she know? His frequent out of mind moments. She had caught him staring at her with pity filled eyes. Sometimes,his expressions would spell sorry. She couldn't quite understand why he looked sorry towards her.Pushing those thoughts at the back of her mind,she decided to go prepare something for him to eat once he woke up. He had been the one taking care of her all these days so while he rested, she figured out she should return the favour. Another reason was because she had noticed that his body was declining and his appetite poor. These days,he hardly eats anything and would always say he's full. That was alarming according to LuciaShe cooked his favourite chicken rice and veggies. She didn't forget to prepare pumpkin soup which was known for increasing appetite.Evening came and Kiel had slept for six good hours, something that added more to Lucia's suspicion. Despite how
