Pregnant and Abandoned but the Billionaire to the Rescue Chapter 165: Matilda Richmond's Fury
Mrs Richmond was seething. She was angry that her husband had brought this type of negative exposure to the family.She was going to deal with him. She only hoped that they would win the case. The way their attorney was going about it gave her confidence but she had also heard that Mr. Hoberman was very good and at the last minute when everyone had given up hope, he turned the tables in favour of his clients but she was going to keep her fingers crossed but afterwards, Rodney would be told who was boss. Imagine him going after a girl he had discarded to keep the news away from her, only to go after her later because she had confessed to him that she had known all the while of his affairs and of Nancy's pregnancy.As they drove home, she kept speaking and expressing her displeasure at his recent behaviour.Her father and brothers had deemed it beneath their status to be present at such a proceeding.'Can you tell me the reason you went back to that ant of a girl?' she asked for the nt

The next day, at the appointed time, the court sat again and Jason Campbell was asked to take the stand and he answered the questions to the best if his ability after he had taken the oath.His lawyer had asked him not to display any unwarranted emotion and apart from the anger seen in his eyes, his voice was devoid of emotion until it got to the stage of Nancy calling out to the police to help him which led to her head injury and why she had Amnesia.Mean we hike because of the events at the hospital, his lawyer had advised them to take drastic measures and Rodney, when he was called, though still seething from the row he had had with his wife in the car, had remembered that Phoebe had always been of help to him, not because she was his f as n but because of her selfish purposes.He told the lawyer of her and the lawyer in turn spoke to Phoebe and they both came up with a plan.After Jason's testimony, Alfred was called to the stand and his testimony almost in line with that of Jason

'I am sorry your Honour', but this doctor is lying', Jason said loudly and there was an uproar in court.'Excuse me, Mr. will you tell me now how to do my job or would you want me to hand it over to you so that you could try doing it?'There was laughter all round a d the judge was angry and hit his mantel.'Quiet! he said and everywhere became still.'And Mr. Campbell, if you do not comport yourself, I shall charge you with contempt of court. Now be seated and let's do the business for which we are here and I shall entertain no more interruptions from you'.'But your Honour'....''Sit down or leave this instance!' he yelled.Jason had no option but to sit. It was better for him to be in court and see what happens next than being outside. The suspense would kill him.Nancy was asked to take the oath which she did.'Can you introduce yourself to us Miss?'the lawyer started.'I am Nancy Jones and work in the Campbell's Enterprises as Mr. Campbell's personal secretary'.'Could it be sai

While they were still talking, the defence attorney walked by, 'I hope you are going to round off your case now because it is finished. The sympathy of the jury is with Richmond and your star witness has made it impossible for you to do anything further that could influence their decision.Just accept defeat and be done with it and let's save each other's time and the time if the state as well'.Hoberman looked at him with pity but refused to dignify what he had said with a response and when the already furious Jason would have reacted, he held him back, shaking his head against any violent action he might take out on the attorney.The attorney laughed and walked on with a smiling Richmond in tow.'This is what happens in court houses. You do not have to allow yourself to swallow their bait', Hoberman advised Jason. 'This is aimed at lowering the person's confidence and lead the person into making some form of mistakes that will cost the person dearly.Have you thought how this would af

The Judge who had thought that he was going to end the case that day by giving his verdict knew that the case was not over, not by a long shot because of the new angle that had been introduced. The hospital angle.He wondered why this was not brought out before. He had thought that it was just the shooting at the lodge but now that something similar seemed to have happened at the hospital, it lends a whole new perspective to the case.was already late and he had something to do so the case was adjourned to two days after that day.While Chris had been giving his testimony, Nancy who had been listening had screamed.'People around had looked at her in a funny way as she held on to her head.Rodney had gone to find out what the problem was and Nancy had told him that it was headaches.'I have them when I think too much and they are really very severe'.Thank goodness, Chris' testimony ended soon after that and they had to go home. They took Nancy home themselves asking her not to respon

When they got home, they found that Nancy was already there. Jason had to hold his rage. It was not Nancy's fault after all but there was someone he wanted to vent. all his anger on and that was Phoebe. She was the only one who could have committed this atrocity. He couldn't believe that he had found her attractive enough to have had an affair no matter what kind with her but it had been because of the circumstance at the time but even then, he had known that he didn't want permanence with her. But for her to be this heartless?He needed to find out from Mrs. Potts why she allowed Nancy out of her sight in the first place or allowed her to go out despite his. instructions.'Mrs. Potts!''Mr. Campbell Sir, I know what you want to ask me. Nancy told me that she wanted to take a stroll and that I need not come with her but stay and watch the house and that she would be back in a jiffy. I was skeptical but she insisted and since I wanted to gain her trust and one of the ways was to show

It was with shocked amazement that they looked on as the defence attorney called Phoebe to the witness box.She took her oath.'Can you tell us what your name is?''I am Phoebe Walkman'.'What do you do for a living?''I own a store where I sell designer clothes'.'We hat is your clientele like?''They are women from the upper class in the society'.'You mean you don't sell used clothes or clothes for the middle or lower classes?'There was laughter in the courtroom.'I do not have anything against the classes you've mentioned but I sell for the upper class, though if they can afford the clothes, why not? I'd sell to them as well'.'That's okay. We want to know what your relationship with Jason Campbell is like'.'We are friends. I thought very good friends'.'What do you mean 'I thought'?''Well, he has been hauling accusations at me that are not warranted. It would seem that he is frustrated or something with the way the case is going but why take it out on me?''What kind of accusa

Dr. Parker Ratfield was called to the witness stand by Hoberman and he attested to the fact the he was Mr.Ratfield and that he was not in thee hospital that day but overseas.'I was told though of the scene of a huge man having my lab coat on and trying to take the lives of the patients at the hospital. We have increased security since then. I was glad though when they told me that he had been apprehended'.They did not feel it was ideal asking him further questions.Hoberman was called the hospital staffs that were present one after the other to give their testimonies.'This large man you talked about, is he anywhere in court today?'After looking around, they all pointed to Maze where he was sitting beside Rodney.'Thank you no more questions. Your witness' Mr. Cobberson. Cobberson asked a few questions that led no where and the staff were asked to leave the box.'After the first attempt on their lives failed', Hoberman started in summary of his briefing.

Both boys not long after Josephine came back home and they were three years old and terrorizes them in the house. Thank goodness for their elder sister who try to keep them in line.Nancy had thought that she would stay a bit longer before allowing herself to get pregnant again but since she and Jason could hardly keep their hands of each other, she soon found that she was pregnant again and had just given birth to a beautiful girl.'Get ready for another set of twins', Jason joked one day and Nancy threw a pillow playfully at him.'You think it is easy carrying them in the womb for nine months and then the ordeal at the hospital to get them out?'Jason hugged her lovingly. 'I know all that and I shall forever be indebted to you. I never thought I could be this happy. You have brought untold joy into my life and I can assure you that I am very grateful''You hav

Mattias took her to the new venue praying that he would still be in the men's trusted books.Like he had foretold, the security was tighter.But raising his hands and asking the ma'am to do the same, they were able to get within some inches of the place.'Comrades', Mattias calked cheerfully. 'I am the ma'am came back from prison where we had gone to see the boss and he had ordered that the little girl be sent back to her parents and that was why we came here to get her. I didn't know that she was to come with me, she was supposed to have stayed at home while I brought the girl to her but she has trust issues because she has not had dealings with us before. She does not know that there is loyalty amongst thieves'.But if that is the case why did you give us the prompt to vacate the place immediately?''The reason is because I was shocked that she had followed me to this place but she is our boss' wife afterall and it's her prerogative. If not for the fact that it will be somewhat risk

As soon as Mattias came out from the prison, Rodney's wife followed him. She was cunning and made sure he did not realise that he was followed.She followed him to a place where she was sure they were keeping Josephine.As soon as he entered, she sneeked in after him and then she saw the girl and those guarding her.'Mattias, who is this woman with you?'Mattias looked back only to find the boss' wife behind him. How had she followed him without him being aware of it? He felt that the boss was going to do away with him because considering what the woman had in mind for the little girl, the boss would never forgive him for such a skip and would haunt him down to the lowest of the underworld to get him and extract his pound of flesh from him.'Ma'am, what is the problem? If you needed something, you could have asked me for it and I would have supplied it''Mattias, who is she?''She is the boss' wife'.'Welcome ma'am, we didn't know that the boss would send you to such a place as this'.

Rodney, called Mattias and told him what he had decided.Mattias who had not felt very comfortable kidnapping a child was happy that his boss had reached such a noble decision as to give the child back to her parents.He wished though that he had made that decision before the deed was actually done. Taking the child back now was going to take all his wit's because he knew that there were searches everywhere for them. He had barely managed to take the girl out in the first place.'How does she look?' Rodney asked curious for the first time to know how Josephine looked.'I must say that she is going to be a most stunning woman. I pity the men. She will cause alot of heart break. She has dark hair and same colour of eyes as you. Now that I think of it, she looks so much like you'.Rodney smiled. It made him happy that his daughter looked more like him than her mother. It made him burst with male pride and made him more determined to do right by her.They were still talking when his wife

She could not believe what she was hearing and wondered what kind of fish brain the man she had married had.How could he allow someone to know the plan he was making even before he made it? What had given him such confidence ?She had known that Rodney was capable of doing what Nancy had said even without the threat he had made. He had alot of men of questionable behaviour which she was only starting to know since the court case, who were working for him. He could easily ask one of them to do his dirty jobs while he pretended in oven e in prison.'If what you have said is true, then the best place for you to have gone is the Prison. Go there and speak to him. Most probable, your tears would do what nothing else can do. I am a woman and I believe that he is still fascinated with you no matter how he tries to pretend that that isn't so'.'God forbid it!' Nancy said before she realised herself. 'I am really sorry. I forgot myself for a moment'.'For what? You just expressed your emotion
Pregnant and Abandoned but the Billionaire to the Rescue Chapter 184: The Female Angle
Nancy had been hiding her panic and impatience except for her occasional request to be told of the progress of the search that had been organized for her child.She could bear no more. It was close to a week now since Josephine was abducted. She feared to consider what may have been done to her or what miserable condition she had been kept.She had consoled herself with the belief that her biological father must have given instructions that no one should harm his child but she had no real faith in that assumption.The man was a beast and would not mind doing away with anyone or anything that stood in the way of what he wanted even if that person was his own child.Afterall, he had not wanted this particular child and had gone out of his way to terminate her life, what guarantee did she have that her suffering would touch him on any way?She had not been able to sleep well at night and that she managed to eat was because of the life growing in her She did not want to punish it for the
Pregnant and Abandoned but the Billionaire to the Rescue Chapter 183: Discouraged
Jason walked home dejected He knew that he had no evidence that Richmond was behind his daughter's abduction but he knew that he was the brain behind it all. He masterminded the whole operation. All his threat had gone unheeded. He had not even boasted of being responsible because he had come prepared for any contingencies like recording his confessions,boasts and threats but he had been surprisingly in control of his emotions and why not, he must feel in charge nowImagine him congratulating Jason on his wedding to Nancy. 'It had made the papers and news for weeks on end. You have it all now, a wife- a doting wife and a child and soon more children'.It would have flattered him to hear that but it had not brought joy be ause he had also mocked him. 'I hope for this recklessness of yours, Nancy never gives you peace and the marriage that you thought would bring you happiness, let it turn out to bring you misery'.And he was indeed miserable since Josephine had gone missing.

The police did not find anything the previous day and we're going to continue their search of cars that dayVery early that morning, Jason set out to the prison where Rodney was serving term He had been there for about Two years and out of the twenty five years he was given, he was going to be out on parole in the next three years for good behaviour.He had masterminded that because once he had been convicted, there was nothing his wife could do except for him to follow the advice of his lawyer to act well so that he would be paroled.The prison Warden came to tell him that he had a visitor.' Male or female?''Male. What would you want to do with a female in your state?'He wanted to give him a punch on the mouth. Must he have any lascivious intentions towards any female that came to visit him? Couldn't his wife visit? Though not surprising, his wife seemed to have abandoned him. She was already paying him back in kind by having male companions when he was free since revealing her t

The car drive off in high speed. The man considered this the most dangerous job he had ever done and praised himself for coming out of it successful.He had never had to abduct a child before and that too in the presence of her parents.He wouldn't say the parents were careless. How could they have known that their child was not safe in their own premises? The child had wandered out and he had been keeping watch over the house for close to a month now and felt that he knew the grounds. He had not expected to kidnap the girl that day but luck had been with him and it was though his spirit had called out to the girl and the girl had stroll down to his path and he could not believe his luck. He had called her and she had refused to come close to him at first,then he had said he was friends to her dad and mum and where could he find them?She had relaxed then and trusting as the child that she was had pointed towards her mum and dad, while her attention was diverted, He had carried her.
