Nina; The real me Chapter 58
Nina looked at her husband hoping that he would say something to ease the situation but he said nothing. She stood up and started pacing, all of a sudden she lost control of her temper.“Henry, would you sit back there and do nothing? You aren't even saying anything, what are you up to?”Henry shot at her in anger. “Please don't complicate issues, we are already going through a lot. Don't make it get worse.”“Really? Is that all you have to say? “What were you expecting me to say? We have nothing to do but to wait for the police. Having this argument will take us nowhere but make things worse.Nina couldn't hold back her anger any longer. The constant threats from Marcus and her husband's silence were pushing her to the edge. She felt helpless and frustrated, and she needed to do something about it. Driven by fury and desperation, she decided to confront the police about their handling of the situation.“Where do you think you are going to go?” Henry asked as he tried to stop her, bu

Night had fallen, and the sounds and movements in the hospital were gradually reducing. Henry had returned home to look after the kids, leaving Nina and Olivia to stay with their mother.“Please take care of yourself, you two.”“Sure we will, hug the kids for me.” Nina said as she left the arms of her husband.She returned to the room to sit beside her mother's bed, gently stroking her hand while Olivia paced about the room, unable to sit for a long time. The recent happenings had left both women clueless of what would happen next but they found comfort in each other's company as they kept watch over their mother."She looks so peaceful," Nina whispered, more to herself than to Olivia. "I hope she’s finally getting some rest."Olivia nodded, her eyes filled with worry. "She needs it. We all do."“I hope this ends soon sis.” Nina said as she squeezed her sister's hand.As they sat in silence, the door creaked open, and a nurse stepped in. She was young, with a kind face and a professio

Nina and Olivia sat like they were glued to their seats. They watched the clock ticked as they waited for Henry's arrival to come take over so that they could go home to have some rest.Just as Henry was preparing to come over, he received a call from Marcus. He answered immediately, recognizing the number."I'm outside the hospital," Marcus said without a preamble. "Bring Nina and come get my blood sample for the DNA test. I’ll be waiting for you at the entrance"Henry's heart raced. "Which hospital?"Marcus gave him an address and hung up before Henry could ask any more questions. He immediately called Nina, and explained what Marcus had said. Nina was skeptical, because her instincts told her something was not right about this message“Henry, I don't trust him," she said, pacing the room. "It could be another of his tricks, don't you think?.""Maybe, but we don't have a choice, his call was impromptu so we have to play along" Henry replied. "We need that DNA sample to settle this o

Nina waited for the head doctor to show up to apologize to them or come to check her mother herself but she seemed not to show up. After two hours of waiting, she and her sister went to her office.“Is that what you do here?” Olivia asked immediately they stepped in.“I beg your pardon. What are you talking about?” Dr. Mitchel asked.“My mother was almost killed today because of a wrong drug your staff administered on her, and sit here and watch as if you don't know about it?”“Mrs Windsor, we understand how you feel and I apologize for that. We’re trying to sort out what led to all that happened, please be patient with us”With that Olivia and her sister left without uttering a word to herEarly, the next day, Dr. Mitchell called for an emergency staff meeting. His face was clouded with frustration and concern as he addressed the gathered staff, including those who were off duty. The room was filled with murmurs and worried glances as everyone tried to piece together why they had bee

“Getting her involved wouldn't be a bad idea at all, she has a lot to take care of… but if she doesn't want to comply, so be it.” Kelly thought.Nurse Lynn arrived home after a long shift, but her mind was preoccupied with the day's events. The hospital had carried a different atmosphere since the fallout from Mrs. Dorathy's critical condition, and Lynn's encounter with Kelly was still fresh in her thoughts. She walked into her apartment in shock as though she had seen someone, she closed the door behind her, and slumped onto the couch in exhaustion. As she took off her shoes and kicked them aside, she replayed the conversation she had had with Kelly in her mind.Kelly had been acting differently lately, her words were barely making meaning. She wondered what had made her hint at a conspiracy involving Marcus and suggested that Lynn might be in danger or being set up. “Where did she get that idea from?” She asked herself. Lynn felt a pang of anxiety, but she also sensed that Kelly's

Four days later, the air in the hospital room was filled with relief and joy. Mrs. Dorathy had regained consciousness, and her eyes fluttered open to see her loved ones gathered around her. Nina, Olivia, and Henry were all there looking worried but now their lips were breaking into smiles as they saw her opening her eyes gradually."Mom, you're awake!" Nina exclaimed, rushing to her mother's side and taking her hand. Olivia followed closely,with tears of joy.Mrs. Dorathy managed a weak smile. "I'm... I'm okay," she whispered.Henry stood by the foot of the bed as he watched the ones he called family. "We're so glad you're back with us, Mrs. Dorathy."The doctor entered the room with professional satisfaction. "This is truly amazing. It's good to see you awake, Mrs. Dorathy. You've been through a lot, but you're a strong fighter."Henry turned to the doctor, with a hint of urgency in his voice. "Doctor, thank you so much, you have indeed proven your expertise. But I think it would be

Nina and Henry sat in confusion until they fell asleep. But at some point, Henry opened his eyes, he started tossing and turning all night, unable to find any peace. His mind raced with thoughts of Marcus's threats and the looming danger that hung over his family. He frequently stood up to check for any signs of Marcus.He knew they couldn't stay in their home any longer. Marcus was unpredictable, and Henry couldn't risk the safety of his loved ones any further.In the early hours of the morning, Henry made a decision. He quietly got out of bed, careful not to wake Nina, and headed to the living room. There, he sat down and began making calls. He contacted a few close friends and family members, explaining the dire situation and asking for their help. Within an hour, he had arranged for temporary accommodation in a remote area where they would be safe.Henry returned to the bedroom and gently shook Nina awake. She blinked up at him, her eyes filled with concern as shock. “Oh my goodne

Kelly had a day left to resume her duty at the hospital, and she hasn't been able to get Marcus to give her the money. She decided to threaten him if he would bend to her request.She took a ride to the front of the police station, her hands trembling slightly as she held her phone. She took a deep breath, trying to steady herself. She knew that what she was about to do could change everything. But Marcus had pushed her too far, and she was done being his game. She dialed his number, waiting for his face to show on the screen."Marcus," she called as soon as he picked up. "As you can see, I'm standing outside the police station. I'm about to go in and tell them everything. About you, about what you made me do, and about how you tried to frame me into killing Mrs. Dorathy."There was a brief silence on the other end of the line before Marcus spoke, his voice cold and dangerous. "You wouldn't dare.""Oh, I would. I’m ready to give us up," Kelly replied, her voice firm. "I'm done with yo

Marcus lay on the cold, concrete floor, in the ocean of his blood, his breath came in ragged gasps. His once confident, domineering presence was now reduced to a pitiful, broken man struggling to fight for his life. Kelly stood over him, with the gun still trembling in her hand. The shock of what she had just done was written all over her.Marcus’s eyes, once filled with cold calculation, now held a flicker of disappointment, anger, and perhaps even a trace of betrayal. He coughed, and the movement sent a fresh wave of pain through his body, he stretched his hand out toward Kelly, but his fingers wavered as if trying to grasp something just out of reach.“Kelly,” Marcus whispered. “Why…why did you do this? I thought…we were on the same side. I thought we agreed… to get revenge.”Kelly’s lips shook as she looked down at him, her eyes brimming with unshed tears. The man lying before her was a shadow of the person she had once known, the man who had manipulated her, twisted her emotions,

The door finally creaked open, and the sound echoed through the warehouse like a gunshot. Nina’s breath caught in her throat as Marcus walked in with Nurse Kelly. The sight of her sent a wave of shock through the room, the collective gasps of everyone echoed in the silence. Kelly’s presence was unexpected, and for a brief moment, everyone seemed frozen in place, as their minds struggled to process this new development.Nina’s eyes locked onto Kelly’s, searching for some sign of what was going to happen next. On the other hand, Kelly’s expression was unreadable. But there was a look in her eyes that sent a chill down Nina’s spine.Marcus stopped in the middle of the room, studying the faces around him with a predatory gaze. He seems to enjoy the fear he saw in their faces. He moved closer to Nina. “I told you, but you wouldn't listen. You wanted to see what I could do. Right?” He asked her as he wiped a tear from her eyes.“See what you’ve caused. Everyone is in a mess because of you.

Inside the cold warehouse, the air was thick with tension. Nina sat bound to a chair. She watched the movement of Marcus in fear. After some time of pacing around, he stood before her with a twisted smile on his face. The sight of him made her blood boil, but she knew she had to keep her composure. Any sign of disobedience could set him off, and the last thing she wanted was to put her family in more danger. He leaned forward to kiss her, but she quickly turned her face.Marcus had been making jest of her for what felt like hours. Every now and then, he would lean in close, his breath hot against her ear as he whispered threats.“You’re so predictable, Nina,” Marcus sneered, pacing back and forth in front of her. “You’re always trying to be the hero, always thinking you can outsmart me. But look where that’s gotten you. Tied up and at my mercy. I thought you’d recognise me when I came, but No!. Can't you see that you're dumb?”Nina’s jaw clenched as she fought the urge to spit in his

Henry's heart pounded as he drove towards the east of the town. He called Olivia to ensure that they were safe while he also informed them about his movements, his thoughts were consumed with fear and anger. “Please be safe out there.” Olivia managed to say.“Sure, be more vigilant as well.” Henry said as dropped the phone.The lead he had just received from Maria felt promising, but he couldn't shake the fear that something terrible might happen to Nina before he could reach her. The idea of Marcus holding her captive, possibly harming her, made Henry's blood boil. He gripped the steering wheel tightly, as he sped down the road.The sudden ring of his phone startled him. He quickly glanced at the caller ID and felt a cold chill run down his spine. It was Marcus. “My goodness!” He exclaimed loudly as he pulled by the road.Henry hesitated for just a moment before answering, trying to prepare his mind for whatever twisted words would come through the line."Henry," Marcus’s voice came

"Doctor?" Nina said, her voice tinged with confusion. "Why didn't you inform us that you were coming? We weren’t expecting you at all."The doctor didn’t respond immediately. Instead, he stepped closer, his eyes fixed on her in a way that sent a chill down her spine. Before she could react, he reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a gun. Nina's heart stopped, and she took a step back, fear paralyzing her."Don’t be a fool, shut your mouth and get into the car," he ordered, his voice cold and unfamiliar. It was then that she noticed something else, his face wasn’t right. The more she looked at him, the more she realized this wasn’t the doctor. His eyes were different Then, with a swift movement, he ripped off what she now saw was a mask, revealing his true face.It was Marcus.Nina’s blood ran cold as she recognized him. His face looked more cruel than before, and his eyes were filled with malice. She tried to scream, but no sound came out. Instead, she found herself frozen on th

“Take it here, and drop it there.” Nina said as she held her husband closely.“We’re doing it, my darling.” Henry told his wife. “I can't wait to start life again with you.Just then, Henry’s phone buzzed in his pocket. He glanced at the screen and saw Kelly’s name flashing. He tapped the screen and put it on speaker. “Henry, listen to me,” Kelly’s voice was urgent, filled with fear. “Don’t go anywhere. Marcus is out there. I just saw him, he looked like he was heading to your house. And I'm very sure he’s planning something.”Marcus had instructed Kelly to call him so that they would be able to know their new location.Henry exchanged a look with Nina, as his heart was pounding. “We need to stay back,” he said, his voice tight with urgency.“Oh my!” What's all these? She asked as she ran outside to alert everyone.“Get inside, now,” Nina ordered, ushering everyone back into the house. They moved quickly. Inside, they locked the doors and pulled the curtains shut. Henry’s mind raced

Kelly looked around in fear as she tried to find her way out of the strange environment. Her heart pounded in her chest with every step she took. She knew Marcus’s men were around, but she had to take the chance. She moved quietly, trying to find an escape route. Just as she thought she was close to a lonely road, Marcus suddenly appeared in front of her."Where do you think you're going, Kelly?" Marcus's voice was low and demeaning.Kelly got startled. She tried to back away, but Marcus stepped closer, his eyes were cold and calculating. "Why are you trying to escape?" he asked, his tone threatening. "Don't you think you are putting yourself in more danger? Hey my darling Kelly, No one leaves under my custody."Kelly swallowed hard, trying to muster her courage but his cold laughter made her angry. She raised her hand to give him a slap but Marcus prevented it quickly and resumed laughing at her in a mocking tone.Kelly felt helpless, she fell on her knees and tears started dropping

Henry knew they were playing a more dangerous game so he decided to get started on the difficult task of processing their visas to leave the country. He knew it wouldn't be easy, but it was their best chance at escaping the clutches of Marcus and Kelly. He made secret calls and filled out the necessary documents, all while keeping a watchful eye on his family.Meanwhile, Marcus grew increasingly desperate and angry. He started calling Clarissa, Nina, and Henry relentlessly, hoping to instill fear and make them slip up. But Henry and Nina had already decided to ignore his calls, understanding that engaging with him would only make matters worse. Clarissa, however, answered one of his calls out of frustration and a desire to confront him."Hello?" Clarissa said, her voice trembling slightly."Clarissa, it's Marcus," came the cold, familiar voice. "You thought you could run away and hide?""I’m not hiding, Marcus," Clarissa retorted. "I’m trying to live my life without your threats."“Ar

Nina held Henry's hand firmly, not wanting him to move an inch. “Henry, please I beg you. Don't go.”“Nina just hold on.” He whispered softly. Henry gave a signal for Clarissa to take the kids to their rooms while he took the next step.Henry glanced through the peephole cautiously. When he recognized the man standing outside, he breathed a slight sigh of relief. It was their neighbor, Mr. Thompson, who lived just three houses down. Henry opened the door slowly, ensuring there were no unexpected surprises waiting behind the familiar face. He wondered what had brought him here, his family just moved here and they barely go out."Good evening, Mr. Thompson," Henry greeted, attempting to hide the unease in his voice."Evening, Henry," Mr. Thompson replied, stepping inside quickly. "I hope everything is going smoothly?”“Sure,” he responded with a nod.“I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but some people were asking about you and your family, they had your pictures with them too. But the
