Jordan went to check on the patient in the hospital. He was not out of coma yet. He looked at him properly and told the doctors when he wakes up, whatever time it is, he should be called.
If it were possible for the nurses not to be aware of it, it would be better. But if that is impossible, he should be contacted immediately without letting anyone else know.
The doctors said ok. He left for his house. His best moments of the day were those spent in the office or out there with people around him.
Whenever he arrives home, he will be greeted with the absence of Rachel. She was his life and gave his existence a meaning.
He didn't just get to know her when they got married, on the contrary, he had known
The surgery was successful and Rachel was wheeled out of the theatre. She was weak and couldn't even raise her fingers. She looked pale and dying.The baby had been transferred to the Neonatal ward and placed in the incubator. But he was concerned about his wife, about Rachel's recovery.It was a preterm labour and the baby was born premature. If Rachel hadn't experienced the hell she went through at the hands of those heartless beings, what happened wouldn't have been, they probably wouldn't have had Jora as premature.When she was taken to the private ward, he sat by her and held her hand, watching her to sleep. But rather than sleeping, Rachel seemed to be getting worse.The doctors came, attendin
Tina paused and stared at her speechless. She had another reason for letting her come to her place?And the reason is related to Jordan? How can that be? Wound, healing, get closer and blablabla. Whatever.Isabella stood and stared back at her without blinking an eyelid. Tina didn't want to probe further and said " we'll talk when I return"Isabella nodded and smiled faintly. She couldn't tell Tina what was going on in her heart. She hopes to discuss that after telling her about Jordan.She hopes that she returns on time before going to bed. She would try her best to keep awake until Tina returns.Jordan was looking in the direction of I
Tina sighed. She doesn't want it to appear as if she was exposing Isabella's weakness. But she can't be lying either.Her mood can lead to depression and no one can underestimate the extent to which depression can make one do something terrible.They should help Isabella in any way possible. That's what friends do for each other, to be a source of support to each other.They needed to be the shoulders that Isabella leans on in times like these. She wasn't told to tell Jordan, but she would tell him all the same."Isabella doesn't look well after her argument with Kunle back in the office. And she wouldn't tell me what's wrong with her either"Tina disclosed.
Tina got in and sank into the sofa. She had a great evening with Jordan but almost soiled it when she sent her regards to Rachel.Jordan's smile suddenly disappeared. He looked gloomy and she wanted to ask him if anything was wrong when he said "good night" and drove off.What happened, was she wrong to say that? Or she didn't say it properly? She was going to rehearse it to Isabella's hearing and asked her if anything was wrong with it."Welcome" Isabella said, stepping out of her bedroom and taking a seat opposite Tina. She couldn't sleep, she was waiting for her to return." Thanks Isa" Tina replied and yawned. She's feeling sleepy already or could it be that she's tired?
"Son, it appears you are happy today. You haven't answered my call on the first ring in a while now" Jackson Duro said.His son and himself have been fighting a cold war with each other. Jordan hardly talks to him and he appeared to care less about him.But he still cared about him a lot. The only challenge he has with Jordan is his strong headedness.He would do whatever he likes and seem right to him. No one can make him do otherwise.And that has been from his childhood. He would scold, spank him, only to discover that he would return to do what he had punished him over.Jordan sighed. He didn't know the person calling was his father.
Tina blinked her eyes and sighed. She's not yet able to gulp down all she said about Jordan. What does she want to ask that she termed it 'favour'?"A favour?" Tina asked and Isabella noded. She had discovered that Jordan was getting along with her well and who knows, she might be the cure for his obsession." It's about Jordan please. I need you to understand that all I want for him is good. I meant you no harm either. I want you to join me, to help him.Jordan is a good guy, disciplined and reserved. After he lost his wife, that guy had not been able to accept another woman into his life.I think we should help him." Isabella suggested.Tina pouted her lips. How is that a favour? Jordan needs
Next morning, the ladies got dressed and ready to set out to the office. Isabella looked better after she talked with Tina the previous night.That morning, it didn't appear as if she was the same person who lied that an insect had perched her eyes.Only heavens know the extent to which the insect was powerful enough to have been able to perch on both of her eyes at the same time.They drove in Isabella's car. Tina's car was still in the force headquarters after she was attacked. Jordan had suggested that she shouldn't use the car until the case was over.When they arrived, Jordan and Kunle hadn't arrived. The two ladies waited nearly two hours before Jordan walked in, followed behind by Kunle.
Jordan was furious. Tina is taking a risk and he can't afford to lose at this point. Kunle and Isabella exchanged glances and sighed."Anything the matter Jordan? Where is Tina and why are you looking furious?" Kunle asked."Tina is with the suspect. Does she think she is in New York? She told me the suspect is innocent, by merely looking at him.Where is that done in investigation? Looks can be deceptive at times. I don't know what she's thinking. I think she needs a thorough spanking" Jordan complained.Tina took a seat in front of Collins Bruno. She glared at him with an Expressionless face. She had spared him from being hit.
