JORDAN'S POV
I suspect everyone I don't know or remember crossing paths with . When I saw a lady get close to my daughter, I took a few strides and arrived behind her.
I couldn't strike but waited to see what she was up to. Jora was smart like I educated her.
She didn't say anything to the lady nor kept her smile. She drew backwards when the latter squatted in front of her.
She identified a stranger like I had told her in the past, never to go carefree or smiling to a stranger.
A stranger might be there to harm her. She must be careful and apply wisdom and distance first before defending herself.

When Jordan arrived at the airport, he was checked in and took his seat. He would be in Newton city in forty minutes time.He looked at his wristwatch and knew he would arrive at the exact time and head straight to the superintendent's office.As he sat down, he closed his eyes briefly and was lost in thought. He wanted to investigate who that lady was.He doesn't feel good that he was leaving Abuja so soon. He wished he had another one week to spend, he would have found out who she is.He would call his mother and tell her to ensure she protects Jora very well. He doesn't feel safe with anyone unknown to him.Rachel was kidnapped back then an
JORDAN'S POVI least expected to see her on the plane. I heard someone talk about not wanting to believe that someone was trailing her and opened my eyes.Who was talking and to whom? But the fellow I saw was that lady from the previous day. She? Not again!I looked at her and saw her sit properly adjusting herself and putting her dark shade on. Why do I have to meet her again?Was it a mere coincidence or our paths kept lying together? A weak grin appeared on my lips.I told her I wouldn't mind trailing her. But she suddenly became reserved. As if she wasn't the one who spoke a few minutes ago.&n
Jordan was standing expressionless. He is long used to seeing them argue. If one does not oppose the other, the other would create another avenue for argument.Jordan had long been used to them and sometimes it makes working with them exciting. But he loves them the way they are because in line of duty they are best at brainstorming together.They know when to be serious and when to be frivolous. Kunle and Isabella had a past but the former still loves her.He didn't get to know exactly what led to their break up, but somehow, Kunle still had a thing for her in his heart." They stopped arguing and stood before Jordan, they made a salute and walked closer.&nbs
Jordan hissed between gritted teeth. Silly boy, he doesn't know what he meant by knowing something."Nosy '' he murmured under his breath and Kunle chuckled aloud. He had said things that Jordan does not seem interested in.He shrugged and looked towards Tina "You are welcome once again detective Tina" he said stretching his hand and taking hers gently."Thank you detective Kunle,"Tina replied and smiled faintly. She doesn't smile often. Not because she is a detective but because it's just her, she is not the smiling type.Some said she's hard judging by her facial expression while some felt she is being arrogant. Whatever, she is Tina Smith and that's what matters to her.
The detectives asked her if the Chief had been notified. She said she couldn't reach him but his assistant received the message and promised to inform him.But she was still waiting to receive calls from him. He hadn't called her yet. She was sobbing quietly and sniffling.She took a tissue and cleaned her tears. She felt bad. She is the only child she's got and at her age, where does she start from?Jordan looked at her and shook his head. Death meant nothing to him anymore. After Rachel died, he felt the world had come to an end. He had sobbed, mourned and felt like he should die as well.It's been years, but he is still mourning her secretly. He still thinks about her and wishes she was there with
There is something odd about that. A mother referring them to someone else to find answers? That's absurd.She wants to know what's behind that situation. Now the woman has lost her only child. The daughter is gone and she doesn't have any pleasant memories to look back to and remember the times she had with her daughter.She wished she grew up to know her mother. She was barely one when her mother died. She died from being crushed by a reckless driver.She believed the cock and bull story until a few years ago when she discovered a secret. She had decided to go into the military for that singular purpose.And now that is her primary duty. Joining the police force and working in the same team w
Isabella glanced back and nodded. She would mobilise men and have Collins invited for interrogation. They need to apprehend him.The day was almost over and they were to leave the rest work to be done the next day. They've done a few things already and made a good start for the investigation." Where am I dropping you off to?" Jordan asked. He would be returning home and spending some time on brainstorming." Back to force headquarters. My car is still parked there" Isabella answered. There's something bothering her and she needed to talk to Jordan to be relieved." Jordan, please lend me your ears, I want to discuss some certain things with you," Isabella said, glancing at him. The latter nodded and
Tina gazed at the woman standing with her hands on her chest. She had coughed thoroughly and had hardly been able to catch her breath when she asked a rhetorical question.She stared at her from her head to her toes, scrutinising and sending a warning with her stare. She doesn't like it when people who are not strong pretends to be strong.The same lady who was fidgeting and shivering from fear, but now, she pretends before her to be courageous with a fearless heart.Dare she put up a fake courage before her? She is mistaken because she is capable of reading her mind from the actions she put up."Are you trying to put up a pretence before me? Do you care about your boyfriend Pascal Parker
