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. Nancy ha
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
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
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
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'.
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
Josephine was already six and a big girl. She helped in taking care of her siblings.Yes, Nancy gave both to a set of twins. 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
Nancy Jones walked and walked without having any destination in mind. She was fed up with Life.How could Rodney do this to her? She must have been a fool to believe him.Her mother had always called her a slow wit. So, maybe that was what she was. If she weren't how could she have fallen for his tricks and lies?It doesn't matter now, there was nothing she could do. She just had to think of a way forward or take the easy way out.She was out of job and didn't really have a roof over her head.The slum where she had got a cheap accommodation was rat infested and the walls got soaked up easily.She had no bed of her own. She had had to sell a lot of her things just to get enough money to move out of the town.It reminded her of a lot of things that she would rather forget.She didn't know what she would do, how to get the next meal but with her education at College, she had tried to get a job as someone's secretary or receptionist or any type of job for that matter that would help her
