Adrian had already started reviewing the surveillance footage along with Neil when Chris walked in with his brothers. âThe security team has moved to another room for live feed monitoring, and we can use this room for now.â Adrian updated Chris as he reviewed âI am reviewing the footage from restaurant from 30 mins from the incident.â âNot just restaurant, we need to review the footage of all floors from the time ladies planned the shopping.â Mark spoke as sat in front of one of the computers. âLetâs review 3 floors each. That should cover the entire âGet the shadow guards to review traffic surveillance within 50 kms circumference of this shopping centre. Cover every nook and corner.â âThis is like looking in a haystack without knowing whether you are looking for a needle or a pin.â Chris muttered even though he obediently sat at the desk to review the footage as Mark delegated. âWhose brilliant idea was this?â Eric grumbled as he reviewed the footage. âMomâsâ Darcy spoke without

âWhatâs in that direction?â âNothing much.â Mark spoke looking at the area Chris was pointing towards with a scrutinizing gaze as he recalled the significance of the landscape âIt used to be an industrial area that got ditched even before it was developed due to environmentalist protests against changing the landscape to resolve access difficulties.â âBoss, I think we can predict the destination of the car with 95% accuracy.â Night Wing spoke as he looked up the map of the area where the car disappeared. He had pulled up the specifics of the area as Mark was speaking. âUm?â Chris asked in a low voice although his eyes were locked on the screen where the car disappeared. Every minute that ticked off without any news of Emile, was another minute that his life force and sanity was draining off. âHere...â Night Wing pointed confidently at the patch of lush trees. âThere is an abandoned factory here.â âLetâs go.â Chris didnât want to wait any longer. Even if the chances were only 5%, h

Emile found herself lying in the back seat of a modified 7-seater when she gained consciousness. She raised her head in confusion, only to find herself restricted by the ropes binding her. She saw that there was only two men in front and one in the middle seat, staring at her. âDonât blame me. If anything, you only have yourself to blame for falling in love with someone elseâs man.â The man shook his head in regret. Perhaps he felt sorry for the miserable woman who was unlucky in love in front of him. He knew her story and there was nothing but regret as he looked at her. He knew her story and there was nothing but regret as he looked at her. Her first love was a tomb of torture and the second one although it seemed to be smooth sailing, would eventually take her life, either way, she was not destined for a happy ending. Perhaps, he felt sorry for her as they both fell in love with the wrong person or so he thought. If Sheryl was here, she would have recognized the man, as it as none

âEeisssshhhâŠâ Emile gasped in pain as the brute men cut the ropes and tugged them off. The ropes that were already digging into her legs, left a bloody trail as they were rudely yanked off. Even so, Emile pursed her lips and walked forward. She knew that her husband who spoiled her unconditionally was not around, and she didnât have the luxury of acting spoiled. Her eyes misted and streamed down her cheeks as she thought of how she might never see the man who spoiled her unconditionally. âKeep movingâ One of the men pushed her forward as he saw her slowing. Emile moved forward before being able to stabilize her balance. She sighed in relief as she hugged her tummy and walked forward. She didnât have the courage to slow down any further. The inside of the warehouse was more desolate than the outside. There were another 8 eight men inside, all eyeing her like hungry wolves. But none of them approached her. Larry was seated in a corner watching them as they walked in step by step. He

Sheryl turned back and kicked the stool that was lying quietly in her path in anger. She narrowed her eyes as she saw Emile who was lying down, tied up like a sacrificial lamb that was totally at her mercy. Her lips curled up cruelly. âAre we comfortable?â Sheryl walked forward like a proud peacock. âNoâ Emile's lips curled in disdain âBut I donât assume you brought me here to make me comfortable.â âAt least you have self-awareness.â Sherylâs lips curled viciously as she approached Emile. Just as she was approaching Emile, Eva walked in, rushed in would be more apt. âI was delayed as I was making sure I had an alibi for the Walters to stare at so that we wonât be inconvenienced here.â Eva explained as she slowed her steps, feigning a relaxed expression. âNot delayedâŠâ Sheryl chuckled. She didnât blow Evaâs farce even though she saw through it. Eva was her scapegoat, why would she compete with a short- lived ghost? âWhereâs Larry?â Eva asked in caution as she saw that Sherylâs sha

âAAAAAHHHHHHHHâ Emile cried out and spoke with great difficulty "My husband will avenge me and his child.... don't slander my husband. I will not doubt his love as I have been fortunate to receive it unconditionally." Following Emile cry, before anyone had the chance to react, two bullets pierced through the air one after the other followed by another scream âAAAAHHHHHâ The only difference was this time, the cry wasnât from Emile, but rather Eva. The two shots fired were calculated; one was aimed at her hand and the other at the knife to deflect its projection from falling onto Emile. Everyoneâs gaze turned to look at the direction the bullets came to see a furious Chris rushing over with Night Wing who had his guns drawn in both hands. Emile smiled through tears as she saw the man rushing towards her without a care for his life. How could she not love and trust such a manâŠ... she was truly fortunate in this lifetime to have met himâŠ...however short lived, she was truly blessed to

At the warehouse- Sheryl looked at the furious Chris who barged in, with shock. She didnât expect Emile to hold so much value his heart nor did she expect him to find them so fast. Her arrangements were meticulous. She had made an appointment in a beauty saloon in the shopping centre that Emile was at but booked a 4-hour session so that her timelines would clash with the time of kidnapping, taking her off the list. She even got her look-alike to drive back to the hotel where she was staying in her car so that anyone chasing her would be led in circles but would not be anywhere near her. Even the car used to kidnap Emile was meticulously planned. Larry had rented the modified 7-seater from a local rental, of course under a false name and had parked the car in an inconspicuous spot. Neither she nor Larry went back to the car or did anything in proximity to the car while it was within the scope of surveillance. âThis is all her.â Eva screamed waking from her stupor of being shot, looki

Adam arrived at the Goodwill Samaritan hospital with Elizabeth, his daughters (and daughters-in-laws) and Abbey shortly after Mark called to inform him that Emile was sent here. Among the ladies, Elizabeth was the calmest. She kept pacifying the others not to stress and it was understandable to get a fright when something like this happens. Adam pursed his lips, his jaws taut as he noticed his wifeâs oddity, but he didnât voice his opinion; inwardly he hoped the current situation didnât have anything to do with his wife. Otherwise, given his sonâs nature, he was sure that he would break all ties with them. Elizabeth by nature was a worry wart; she was never calm, even the smallest of concerns would get her worked up. Not just Adam even the kids knew what their mother was like. However, other than Angel and Veronica, no one noticed that anything was amiss due to the stress from the ordeal. Adam was shocked to see a lifeless Chris sitting outside the operation theatre, his clothes soa

âWhat is it?â Marcus and Chris Jnr asked in unison, with the same helpless expression.âChoose the venue as the same place that daddy and mommy confessed in Mossel Bay.â Emm answered bubbling with excitement.âIf it where they confessed, then we have to do it in several hundred feet above ground.â Chris Jnr rolled his eyes with feigned disdain even though he liked the idea.Emm pouted before raising her chin defiantly âAnyway that would have a special meaning to both daddy and mommy.ââOkayâŠ. okayâŠ. little treasure is right⊠big treasure was only teasing you.â Chris Jnr quickly decided to plead guilty before the little empress decided to throw a tantrum.âWe could do it in the vineyard that our family owns.â Marcus suggested as he agreed with little treasure.Chris Jnrâs eyes kept rolling as little treasureâs idea started to get fixated in his head âLetâs see what the wedding planners can come up with.ââBut that will mean more work for both of you.â Chris Jnr added with a thoughtful

âYou twoâŠ.â Marcus looked from one treasure to the other in disbelief, holding a wedding was a huge thing, he wanted to dissuade them, but he knew that twin look; A hundred wild horses wouldnât be able to hold them backâŠ. What could this poor eldest brother do other than support them?âTell me what to do...â Marcus slouched down, sighing with a resigned expression; since he couldnât talk them out of it, he might as well support them all the way and face the music later. Little uncle might be disappointed with him for not being sensible and mature enough to guide the duo in the right direction but at least he could be a good eldest brother.âI have given the task of selecting the wedding planner from the three wedding planners I have shortlisted to Uncle Night Vigil.â Chris Jnr fiddled with his fingers as he lowered his head and raised his eyes to look guiltily at eldest brother and little treasure. He didnât ask for their opinion before he decided to act and didnât know if they would f

Chris Jnr locked his door soon after Emile ran out of his room with the phone and climbed back onto his bed and dialed little treasure. He knew he would have to wait for a while since they hadnât made an appointment but contrary to his expectation little treasure picked up the call even before it could ring.âBig brotherâŠ.âChris Jnr pursed his lips into a pout; Little treasure rarely called him big brotherâŠ. Not unless she had encountered some sort of grievanceâŠ.âBig brother is hereâŠâ Chris Jnr softened his voice, like he had seen his daddy do when he was comforting them âWhatâs wrong with little treasure? Is eldest brother not there?â He knew that with eldest brother near her, there was no way she would suffer any grievance.âLittle treasure is fineâŠâ Emm pouted as she tried to hold on to her grievance. She was fine, just that she missed her brother too much⊠they had never been separated and that too for this long.âHeâs here.â Marcus responded at the same time as Emm.âWhatâs wron

âIâŠ. what???â Emileâs voice rose a notch as she lifted her head to look at Chris in shock. She shook her head in denial as she lowered her eyes taking stock of every conversation with Daniel; she muttered in disbelief even before her brain finished processing her thoughts âIn my memory, our re-acquaintance did not exist, let alone marriageâŠ. Then how can I ask for a divorce?ââI believe youâŠ. you might not have asked.â Chris coaxed patiently as he gently massaged her back to calm her emotions.âHubby, I am truly sorryâŠ.â Emile buried her face coquettishly in his chest, as she muttered âI cannot even imagine the pain it caused youâŠ. I am so sorryâŠââIt is not your fault. I am to be blamed if you have to blame someoneâŠ. It is my fault I believed that lunatic.â Chris pacified gently, without feeling tired or agitated even though he was repeatedly saying the same thing.âThe only reason I believed him was because my brain was not functioning properly; I couldnât see through his stupid sche

âYesâŠ. I donât think either of us will have a choice when those two scheme together.â Chrisâs lips curled up; his eyes narrowed with curiosity.Although he was eager to know what his treasures had in store for them, he didnât look into it as he didnât want to deprive them of the joy, the joy they got from seeing their expressions towards the element of surprise that his treasures had planned. This reunion was fully to their credit although he didnât know how they managed; this indulgence was what they deserved.âYou mean âŠ.â Emile raised her head curiously to look up at Chris âYou mean, the two are plotting?ââHow else could you explain me missing my tail?â Chris chuckled âand giving me the luxury to come and find you on my own?âEmile giggled as she leaned comfortably into Chrisâs embrace.âWife, what happened?â Chris asked once they settled comfortably in each otherâs embrace.âI am not sureâŠâ Emile paused as she bit her lower lip hesitating before raising her head to look into Chris

âHubby, youâŠ. arenât you getting married to someone else?â Emile asked cautiously in a low voice; no matter how cautious she was, she couldnât hide the hope in her heartâŠwhich transmitted as an excited relief through her voice. âWife, I have told you beforeâŠI, Christopher Walter will only marry once and my wife can only be Emile BurkeâŠâ Chris assured patiently, his voice carrying a promiseâŠ. an oath of a lifetime⊠âHubbyâŠ.â Emile called out in a soft voice, her lips curling up in a sweet smile, brightening her entire aura; all her grievance melted with his promiseâŠshe knew her husband never spoke for verbality. âUmâ Chris hummed in a low coaxing voice; his aura too brightened, dissipating the cold, gloomy aura around himâŠ. a simple address from her, calmed his restless soul like magic. At this moment, silence entwined with each otherâs calm breathing, seemed to be healing the undue grievance suffered by the two souls who loved each other deeply. âHubbyâŠ.â Emile called again, her v

Chris Jnr was setting up his gadgets to contact little treasure when Night Sonic announced that he had taken care of everything. Chris Jnr nodded in acknowledgement as he continued to fidget with his gadgets.âDukâŠdukâŠdukâŠâ A soft knock was heard a few minutes later at Chris Jnrâs door.Chris Jnrâs lips curled up in a knowing smirk as he carelessly placed a sheet over his bed, covering his gadgets, and walked over to open the door.âArenât you tired? Shouldnât you be sleeping?â Chris Jnr quirked his eyebrows wanting to taunt, however his lips curled down guiltily as he saw his mommyâs red eyes.âDo you have a way to contact your daddy?â Emile quickly entered and closed the door as she didnât want to cause unnecessary trouble; she didnât know if Daniel was still awake or if their voice would attract unnecessary attention.Chris Jnr pursed his lips stubbornly toying with the idea of whether he wanted to pay back his daddyâs grievance or succumb to mommyâs sorry state. However, he gave u

âI was thinking out loud about the credibility of the newsâŠ.â Daniel pursed his lips as he came up with what he thought was a plausible explanation âConsidering we were college mates, and our families have collaborated on several projects and yet we were not invited.ââChe!!!â Chris Jnr sneered as he looked at Daniel with disdain âDo you think the legal team of the Walter enterprise is a joke?ââLibel is a serious offense.â Chris Jnr continued with his lips curled lopsidedly in disdain âI donât think this outlet has money to burn nor the guts to gamble by slandering myâŠ.â âWhy does a little kid like you have so much to say?â Daniel interrupted Christian, preventing him from completing his sentence and digging a hole for him.

The day went by without any surprises till everyone sat to watch television after dinner at 6:45, this was the norm in the manor. Although this was the norm, today was different; different because the mental state of the three people seated in the room was not the same as every other day.On the surface it looked like a family of three enjoying a little downtime, however the waves surging underneath the calm exterior were far from calm, perhaps even using the word turbulent to describe the situation would be an understatement.Daniel narrowed his eyes as he thought about what despicable measures, he could use to force Chris to agree to divorce and speed up the process. He had already made arrangements to get a marriage certificate that was legal and valid as soon as the divorce was finalized even without Emileâs consent.However, Chris was proving to be a tough nut to crack. He couldnât believe Chris didnât have any intention of leaving Emile even though it appeared that she had betray
