"That sounds quite detailed," Charles chuckled. "The door would have been locked when you got here and you would be forced to go back but I secretly got the key....so there is nobody waiting to take you back and lock you up.""I don't believe you.""I don't think we have time to be chit chatting, I will rather go out this door than back into that tunnel," Octavia said. She had been locked up for close to three days or so, she wasn't exactly keeping track of time but she didn't want to spend one more second in that basement or Alex's room. "Good choice," Charles said, opening the door for them."We should make a run for it," Clara whispered to Octavia, she didn't trust Charles to keep to his word, this for all they knew could be one of his tricks yet again.Octavia stared at Clara and like they could read minds they both dashed out through the door as fast as their legs could carry them leaving Charles chuckling behind them as he watched them run down the hallway and out the building.

HOSPITALOctavia, Hardin, June and two other nurses rush into the hospital pushing Keir's unconscious body on the hospital bed hurriedly.Octavia held Keir's hand tightly as her eyes filled with tears, Hardin had taken them to an hotel to stay for the night till everything died down, she had remained calm because she knew the police were involved, she even decided to eat something alongside June even though Clara had distance herself from them for some reason. Hardin had gone to check on her later on but came back with a handprint on his face. He was about to explain what had happened when he got a call from James that there was an explosion and Keir was badly injured. She didn't know how severe the injuries were until she saw Keir, her heart sank instantly. He was soaked in his own blood, the side of his head cut wide open with blood dripping on his face making him unrecognizable. It was an awful sight to behold."We will take it from here Ma'am," the nurses said, pulling her hand

"My love!!" Octavia gasped rushing to his side immediately hugging him tightly."Who are you?" Keir asked shoving her off him with a puzzled look on his face. He stared at Hardin and June then back at Octavia who already had tears streaming down her eyes as she reached out to touch his face. "Keir?!" she muttered looking into his eyes, did he not remember her? How could he forget her just like that? This was all her fault, she should have listened to him when he wanted to explain things to her. She suddenly noticed something in the way Keir was looking at her, his eyes seemed softer and then she saw it."I don't-" Keir tried to protest as a slap fell on his face, his head swung to the side from the slap as he brought his hand to his face eyes widened. Octavia's action also surprised June, "What are you doing?" June yelled. "Don't you ever try that stupid stunt with me?" Octavia yelled at Keir. "Ouch," Keir frowned turning his head to stare at her. "A kiss would have been better,"

June remained unfazed by his words, "What if I don't want you?""We can't keep going in circles, how about we start all over again? Go on a proper date, I feel like I might have come too strong on you and given you doubts.""I am too tired for a date, right now I just need to freshen up and rest," June replied. "You need to rest, I am talking about tomorrow," Hardin pressed on. "Or next - or a date of your choice.""You ain't giving up on your pursuit huh?" June sighed. "No, I want you and I am ready to do anything to make you see that," Hardin said."Fine," June shook her head, she turned to stare at him even though his eyes were on the road. "We could have a date, next week Friday.""Thursday? I know you are free on Thursday.""You didn't just say that? Fine, Thursday but if we are starting again you need to stop spying on me. I don't find it to be a romantic gesture or whatever you think it is," June rolled her eyes. She didn't like the idea of being watched and Hardin wasn't ev

After the end of the day June drove home and freshened up, she lay in bed about to sleep when she decided to check her phone to see if Hardin had messaged her regarding their date tomorrow. He had been calling and dropping messages about the date but today he didn't even call or message her, she opened her messages contemplating if she should message him or not.She took a deep breath and decided to message him regarding their date. [Hi, I just thought to check up on you. I guess you must be occupied with work, can't wait to see you tomorrow.]She read the message in her head and shook her head deleting some words off it that sounded like she was being too clingy.[Hi, just checking on you. See you tomorrow, goodnight.]She pressed sent and returned the phone to her drawer as she closed her eyes to sleep but as she drifted slowly in dreamland, she dreamt of Hardin. In her dream, Hardin walked into her room wearing his only briefs as she approached her on the bed, she stared at his

June left the restaurant immediately after getting the text message, it was already late and she felt disoriented by the message, she was about to start the car when she got another text. She checked her phone quickly wondering if it was from Hardin but it was from Octavia. [I thought to check on you, how is it going?] [Hardin is nothing but a jerk.] She replied switching off her phone afterward, she knew if she didn't Octavia's call would follow next and she wasn't in the mood to pick up calls right now. How could Hardin do something like this to her? If he knew he wasn't coming, he could have just said so rather than making her waste her time in that restaurant looking like a fool. The waiter didn't need to say anything but she could see it in his eyes that he suspected Hardin wasn't going to show up, maybe this wasn't his fault but hers. Wasn't this what she wanted? For him to stop chasing after her like a mad dog. Yet, it didn't sit well with her as she thought about it. Sh

"Hey, is he awake now?" June asked as she stepped into the front desk to find Octavia, Keir, and an elderly lady sited. Octavia rose to her feet to hug her, "No, he is still unstable.""Oh," June frowned. While driving to the hospital, the anger she had once felt for Hardin about standing her up at the restaurant and the marriage news washed away when Octavia messaged her that the doctor just told them that Hardin was still unstable. "This is Hardin's mum, Mrs. Scotts but we call her Jules," Octavia smiled."So sorry Ma," June said to Mrs. Scott, it was the first time she was meeting Hardin's mother, merely looking at the woman she could see where Hardin had gotten his looks and eyes from."Thank you," Mrs. Scott nodded her head."Come," Octavia motioned for June to sit next to Keir and her. "Hey," she said to Keir. "He will be fine," Keir reassured her noticing the gloomy look on her face as she sat down. "I hope so, how did the accident...""Oh, Hardin," a loud cry suddenly int

"It's fine, you should get some rest," June's lips curled into a smile as she stared at him but Hardin didn't seem satisfied by her answer. "June I.." Hardin groaned as his hand touched his stomach."You should rest," Emma interrupted him. "Let him rest," she said removing June's hand from Hardin and placing hers in his. Hardin stared at the both of them, he wanted to say something to June but he felt himself blacking out as he fell into an unconscious state. "We should all let him rest," Mrs. Scott suggested staring at her son. "Emma will you be able to stay here while I go home to sort out some things, the doctor said he might not be able to use his legs so I want him to be comfortable.""Of course Mum, you know I will without you asking me to," Emma smiled."Thank you," Mrs. Scott nodded. "Thank you all for coming to see him," she said to Keir, Octavia and June. "He is our friend, it's the least we can do," Keir replied. "June should also stay back since he requested to see her

- MONTHS PASSED - - HARDIN’S MANSION - “Where are you going to?” Hardin asked, reaching out to June on the bed as he embraced her tightly from behind, planting a kiss on her ear. “Octavia is going to kill us if we don’t attend her baby shower,” June muttered. “Why does her baby shower have to be today?” Hardin groaned. After Conrad was arrested, they spent months going to the station, talking to the police, and going to the court to provide evidence and act as witnesses to make sure Conrad got locked up for good. Finally, the judge ruled in their favor and Octavia decided to put her baby shower on the one day that they needed to rest. Why? “We are not spending the whole day in her house remember,” June smiled, understanding Hardin’s frustration and his desire to spend the whole day with just her. She turned around and placed her hand on his cheeks. “We could leave early.” “Early? Once I see Keir I don’t think early is going to come to mind, those two are still in their honeym

“What are you talking about?” Hardin asked."I need to show you something," June said, grabbing Hardin's laptop from the dining table and bringing it to the living room. She inserted a flash drive into the laptop and placed it on the table. Hardin sat down next to her, already repeating what she had said again in his head, ‘I have been faking it’. His eyes widened slowly as it dawned on him what June meant, but she showed him the video already playing, interrupting his thoughts. - VIDEO RECORDING -Emma places her phone on the top shelf. She goes back and looks around to check if the camera is showing. She rushes back to sit on the office chair in the library. Soon Conrad steps in, discussing something over the phone. His eyes flare up at the sight of Emma sitting in his seat in his library. “What the hell do you think you are doing sitting in my seat?” Conrad asked, disconnecting the call and placing his phone back into his pocket. “I thought it best to come and play with my hus

An hour later, Conrad arrived at Hardin’s house, and Hardin felt anxious when he opened the door and caught sight of him.He glanced at June and noticed how she was nervous to see Conrad. He wondered what she was up to. “I’m glad to see you, June,” Conrad whispered. He walked over to June, about to give her a hug, as Hardin stopped him by raising his hand to his chest and shoving him off. “Don’t touch her,” Hardin warned. This meeting was already taking a lot from him to endure. If he touched her, he wouldn’t hesitate to take him out.“We should all sit down and talk,” June asked, like she wasn’t aware of the tension between the two men.Hardin and Conrad stare at each other for a moment, both trying to contain the resentment they held towards each other for June’s sake. They finally sit on the couch and June sits next to Conrad instead of Hardin. Her action doesn’t go unnoticed by Hardin, who eyes flare up, but he allows it. “This should be a private conversation. He shouldn’t be

Hardin was furious and bewildered by June’s desire to meet Conrad. He understood that she had lost her memory and couldn’t remember Conrad, but wasn't that enough reason for her not to want to see him?He ran his fingers through his hair as he got to his feet, pacing around, trying to process her request. “June, I don’t think this is a good idea. Look, you don’t know the kind of person Conrad is. I mean, he is not the person you think he is.” Hardin voiced out, hoping June would back down.“Allow me to see him, Hardin.” She said, with a straight face.Hardin sighed heavily. This was the last thing he wanted. “Why can’t you listen to me, June? I just told you he is not the person you think he is, and he doesn’t love you. "He's nothing but a liar," Hardin muttered through clenched teeth.“Why do you think so, Hardin? Just allow me to meet him. You don’t have to be so stiff about it.” “Stiff?”“I want to meet with him. I don't remember anything. You make it sound like I do and I am int

Hardin held June in his arms for almost five minutes until he realized she had fallen asleep and stopped crying.He lovingly tucked a strand of hair behind her ear as he kissed her forehead. "I promise to protect you from any harm," he whispered, carrying her in his arms.He got up on his feet and laid her gently on the bed, covering her with the duvet. He smiled at her. She looked so beautiful when she was asleep. He could watch her this way without being tired.His mind finally drifted to that call Maria had placed. Something must have caused June to act like this. A frown suddenly fell on his face at the thought of Maria probably doing something to trigger her. Seething with anger, he stormed into the living room, “Maria! Maria!!” He called out to her as she rushed from the kitchen into the living room, bowing her head down. “Maria, what did you do to her? I specifically instructed you not to stress her out,” Hardin bellowed, his voice filled with frustration.Maria, her eyes dow

June stumbled back, her head pounding with confusion. She couldn’t remember who this man was, and it left her feeling disoriented. “Who are you?” she asked, her voice trembling.Conrad looked hurt by her question. He took a deep breath and said, “June, it’s me, Conrad.”“Conrad?” June muttered. In the hospital, she remembered uttering that name, but couldn't piece it together. “I- I am sorry, but Conrad, from where? I don’t know you.”“You do. We’ve been dating for over a year now. How can you not remember me?” Conrad lied.“What?” June questioned. That couldn’t be possible. Hardin was her boyfriend. His mother was here just now to confirm that they were indeed dating, and she wasn’t pleased about it."I was in a car accident, which is why I couldn't reach out to you earlier," Conrad explained, stepping towards her, but June stepped back.“Please Sir, leave,” Maria finally spoke up, seeing the distraught look on her madam’s face.“Who are you?” Conrad asked, but Maria didn’t reply to

"Mrs Scott?" June said. Hardin had mentioned his mother but he barely said much about her, he told her he would explain better today but now here she was. How did she know Hardin was here?"Where is my son? I want to see him," Mrs Scott asked looking behind June to see if Hardin was there."I told you Ma, he is not here," Maria replied angrily, she had been repeating over and over again that Mister Hardin wasn't around but Mrs Scott refused to believe her. "Will you shut up?" Mrs Scott yelled at her."He is not around at the moment but if you want to wait for him you can," June said in a low voice."No Ma'am, Sir said she shouldn't come in," Maria shook her head not accepting what her madam was saying."It's fine Maria, I will handle the situation, you don't need to worry about it," June reassured her seeing the terrified look on her face, it seemed Hardin had given her strict rules to not allow anyone inside including his mother.But why his mother? Was he hiding something from her?
Our Little Dirty Secret 08
By nighttime, June decided to take her bath and get some rest. As she took her shower the scent of the bathing soap felt familiar in her nose as she scrubbed her body trying to remember anything but she couldn't.She emerged from the bathroom afterward, her freshly washed face glistening under the soft glow of the vanity lights. Dressed in her cozy pajamas, she climbed onto the bed, preparing herself for a good night's sleep. As she settled under the covers, the door creaked open, and there stood Hardin. He held his pajamas, ready to freshen up and join her in bed.He dropped the pajamas on the bed and went to take a quick shower when he came back he had a white towel over his waist. June stared at his body, his raven-black hair was slicked back, water droplets glistening on his chiseled chest and strong shoulders. Her choice of boyfriend wasn't so bad she smiled to herself, he was not only handsome but also sexy. A smirk danced upon his lips as he caught June admiring his post-show

June felt her heart leap out of her chest at Hardin's words, her lips parted as she tried to say something but there was nothing coming to her head. That kiss had done something to her and she knew deep down Hardin could see it in her eyes.They both remained still staring deep into their eyes but that brief moment of blissful oblivion was shattered when the maid unexpectedly entered the room.Startled by what was going on, she quickly averted her eyes and mumbled an apology, "I'm sorry for interrupting. I didn't know you had company, Sir." Her face turned crimson as she hastily headed back inside. Hardin and June exchanged a sheepish glance before breaking into a light chuckle. "It's quite alright, Maria" Hardin reassured the flustered maid stopping her on her track as she turned around bowing her head to them. "June, this is Maria, your new housekeeper."Maria nodded, still blushing, and extended a polite greeting, "Nice to meet you, Ma'am. If you need anything, don't hesitate to
