"Amanda, I didn't bring up that birthday party for my selfish intentions. I was only concerned about your well being and—"Amanda placed her hand gently on her shoulder, cutting her off with a soft but firm gesture. "It doesn't matter what her intentions were. You had no right to treat her like everything was her fault," Amanda said, her voice steady as she defended her. "I made the decision to leave with my daughter, and you couldn't have stopped me even if you tried." "It might have seemed insensitive at that moment, but you shouldn't have treated her like that. Lizzy is my friend, and I know she wants the best for me. Your intentions are good too,Charles...but you can't force your ideas on others," Amanda continued, her eyes softening as she tried to ease the tension. Charles hadn't expected Amanda to stand up for Lizzy, especially after everything that had happened, but he let out a deep breath and agreed."You're right," He said. "I think I went overboard. I'm sorry." "Don't

The next morning, Amanda dialed Lizzy's number. She had been thinking about their interactions yesterday. When Lizzy answered, Amanda immediately sensed that something was different. "Lizzy...are you okay?" Amanda asked, her voice laced with concern. "You're not still upset about yesterday, are you?" Lizzy wasn't upset at all. Her thoughts were consumed by the kiss she shared with Charles. "Lizzy," Amanda called, bringing her back to the present. "Yes!" Lizzy replied quickly, her voice higher than intended. "I am fine. I'm not upset about what happened yesterday. That's in the past now." She added, trying to sound casual. Amanda exhaled in relief, glad that her friend didn't hold a grudge. "I'm happy to hear that," Amanda said softly, her lips curling into a small smile. Despite the relief, she was still unhappy about a lot of things. But she had to get used to swallowing her pain. She couldn't make everyone worried about her all the time."How are you feeling, babe? You seem

Lizzy noticed that Amanda wasn't following her, so she turned back in concern."Amanda?" A gasp escaped her lips as she saw her friend stumbling, struggling to keep her balance. She rushed to her friend and grabbed onto her."Amanda, are you okay?" Lizzy asked, her voice laced with worry. "What's happening? Do you feel dizzy?"I just received a text from another unknown...number," Amanda lifted her reddened eyes, whispering with a shaky voice. "They said that my daughter is with them, and she's not doing well. Lizzy, my daughter might be in danger." Lizzy felt extremely shocked, but she put her emotions aside. Right now, Amanda needed her. "Let's go into the car, so you can explain things more clearly," Lizzy urged, slowly helping Amanda to her feet. "Just take deep breaths,"Amanda did as she was told, and they walked slowly to the car. As they got in, Lizzy handed Amanda a bottle of water from the car.Amanda gulped it down and took a few more deep breaths."Do you feel better n

Amanda's hands began trembling and her face flooded with tears. Slowly, she brought her shaky hands to her face, crying in her palms. She should be glad that someone had her daughter, but the thought of her daughter being hurt somewhere terrified her. What would happen if she didn't reach her in time? What if this person simply wanted to trick her for the reward? "Lizzy, I don't know what to do anymore. I'm so confused..." Amanda sobbed, uncovering her face and turning to Lizzy, her eyes glistening with desperation. Lizzy, who was still feeling the sting of Amanda's earlier attitude, kept silent. Realizing how much she had offended her friend, Amanda apologized. "I'm sorry for yelling at you. I'm just in a disheartening position right now..." Lizzy sighed and looked at her with concern, "I understand, but we've got to think wisely about this," She muttered, thoughtfully taking her hand to her chin. "Why is this person suddenly texting when we're on the verge of uncovering th

"Dangerous," Amanda gasped, her heart pounding more intensely than before. "What do you mean?" "Is he a dangerous criminal or an ex-convict? Please do not keep us in suspense," Lizzy leaned forward, asking. Jack rolled his eyes, leaning back in his seat. "This is why I don't like entertaining female clients. But they are the ones willing to pay thousands of dollars to have someone traced out of jealousy or something stupid," Jack mouthed, glancing between them. "What does that have to do with this?" Lizzy glared at him. "Well, I can't talk if both of you keep questioning me consistently. You women are never patient," He scoffed. "Well, maybe we've paid for your services and expect to deliver more effectively!"Amanda spat, her face scrunched in anger. Curiosity was getting the better of her and was slowly transforming into anger. "Fine!" He huffed again, his tone nonchalant. "The person is neither a convict nor criminal. They are smart." "They? Smart? What are

Amanda's hands trembled as she clutched the steering wheel, her eyes fixed on the winding road ahead, her mind was racing and she couldn’t explain how she was feeling at that moment. She had lied to Charles, promising him that she wouldn't go searching for Kendall, but the urge to find her daughter had become so unbearable that it made her go back on her promise. Getting such information, she couldn’t just overlook it by staying calm. There has been a feeling nagging in her heart, she had missed her daughter and wanted to take her in her arms again.The previous night's revelation of where her daughter had left her reeling – was a possible lead on Kendall's whereabouts, and she couldn't shake off the feeling that she was running out of time.

Charles had returned to the mansion and didn't meet Amanda. This made him worried, causing him to call Lizzy. "I went out shortly, and didn't meet my car or Amanda at home," Charles said, his voice laced with worry. "Is she with you?" "Yes," Lizzy replied, lying smoothly. "Why didn't she just answer my calls and tell me that she's with you?" Charles asked over the phone, his tone more suspicious. "Lizzy, are you lying to me?" "No, I'm not..."Lizzy replied, her voice almost faltering. "You don't want our relationship to be built on lies, do you?" Charles asked, trying to manipulate her. "Please tell me the truth, I'm worried about her." "She's with me. We are going around town today. I'm trying to take her mind off everything that has been happening. She's been having breakdowns and I just wanted to help her," Lizzy explained, her voice a bit strained. Charles still didn't believe her. He had stopped Amanda from going on a crazy adventure, but he shouldn't have believed her when

"W-what are you saying?" Betty stammered, her heart racing wildly in her chest."James is dead," Her father repeated, his voice less emotionless."What James are you speaking of? Is it a business partner or one of our non-existent relatives?" Betty asked, her voice trembling. "I don't understand.""It's James. Agnes' son," Her father replied. "The men I sent to end Amanda, unfortunately, shot James instead.""What!" Betty screamed, her eyes pooling with tears. "No, this can't be true. Are you lying to me so I can forget about him, Or is this a prank or something? Are we in the month of April?"Her voice was laced with disbelief and confusion. She couldn't imagine the man she was obsessed with and had pursued for so long being dead."Daddy, please stop joking. Some jokes are expensive," Betty cried out."Betty, are you okay?" Zoe's voice chimed from behind."I'm not joking, Betty," He said, his voice firm. "James got shot. There's no way he could survive such a bullet, according to the

Charles and James drove speeding to the next police station, their hearts racing with every step. James earnestly hoped he would find Amanda there and it shouldn't be just as Charles feared. When they got to the police station, they rushed in and immediately asked the policemen if Amanda was there.“I am sorry but who is Amanda? We have never heard such a name here nor did someone who bears it come to meet us,” the police attending to them said.“What about your fellow policemen who came to meet her, they mentioned someone filed a report in her favor because she was getting harassed and showed up at the hospital to help her,” James said mentioning the names the men had introduced themselves with but the policemen confirmed that no such name existed in their station causing fear to grip James and Charles.“Are you sure you aren't mistaken? Please ask around, you might not know who they are. Maybe they are new here,” James said in denial that the policeman won't know the acclaimed polic

After about a three to four-hour drive, Charles finally made it to the location where his friend Alex said that he could find James’ car. He checked every roadside as he drove ahead, making sure he looked for a car that would match James’ car number. He found a few abandoned cars and after a while, he had finally tracked James' car to the location Alex had given him. He found the car in bad shape, it was dirty with the dust from the rarely used road and it was also badly damaged, with bullet wounds scattered all over it. As Charles further studied to see the window broken and one of the car seats out of place, his fear grew as he opened the car door, his mind racing with worst-case scenarios.The scene of the car looked like it was robbed by some serious hoodlums or an assassination attempt was carried out on it. He feared for Amanda as he searched the car and saw blood stains and shattered glasses on the floor of the car and also a broken phone inside, one he could identify as Aman

Charles sat back in his study tapping his leg as he continued waiting impatiently. It has long been overdue since he was supposed to receive feedback from his friend who he asked to track James’ car but it was almost midnight with no reply yet.Charles endlessly scrolled through his message box, and his socials waiting for a text as he sipped some wine to keep himself busy. His instinct keeps telling him Amanda was in danger and he knew the earlier he intervened to save her, the better.As he sighed the 100th time wondering when the text he was waiting for would finally come, his phone beeped and then rang, breaking the silence in his room. He checked the caller ID, it was his friend, Alex who he had asked to track the car, and he let out a sigh of relief and answered the call, listening intently to his friend's voice on the other end."Charles, I found something," Alex said with excitement laced in his tone. "I tracked the car's GPS, and it seems they abandoned it in the middle of t

Betty drove like a mad woman as she stormed into her father’s villa and then impatiently headed to her father’s mansion. She met a domestic staff and asked where she could find her father. The staff mentioned he was in his study and she went straight to meet him.Without knocking, she pushed the door open to reveal her father who was making a call. He looked up when she walked in, totally surprised to see her.“Father. I haven't heard any news from you,” Betty said immediately as she sat and made herself comfortable in the study and rang the staff to bring her a bottle of wine and a glass.“Betty, you didn't inform me you were coming,” the father said as he ended the call.Betty looked up at him with a scowl and asked.“Do I need to let you know when I'm coming over? Isn't your house mine? Don't I used to live here? Well, I will be coming often when Mom finally comes back from her world tour,” Betty said and grabbed the bottle of wine to pour herself some wine when the staff delivered

It was finally over for Charles as he boarded the plane flying him back to London. After several days that turned into weeks of being away without his consent due to the workload, he was finally back.While he was working overseas, he had never stopped trying Amanda’s contact which won’t go through. Even as he was on the plane leading him back home, he still tried to check her social status if she was active but all came to a futile result and he needed no soothsayer to tell him everything wasn’t fine. Amanda was in danger for being that inative for this long which kept him worried. Finally, after several hours he got to London and walked out of the airport to his awaiting car which took him back straight to Amanda’s residence.He rang the bell severally but no one came out to say anything to him and seeing how around her place looked like it hadn’t been touched and showed no human activity, he suspected she hadn’t been home too for weeks.Luckily for him as he turned back to head bac

After coming to the conclusion that she would do as her mind wanted, Amanda rushed back to James’ ward to meet him, her mind still reeling from the encounter with Michael while her heart raced with urgency knowing Micheal’s words weren't something she was going to play with. She couldn't shake the image of his grin off her mind, his threat filled her head causing her heart to race more knowing James was still weak and was only recovering. He wouldn’t be able to do anything to defend himself if he was attacked by Micheal.Amanda bit her lips as she wondered why she encountered someone like Micheal who wouldn’t give up. He was too stubborn and it got her badly disturbed."Wait for me, Micheal. You'll hear from me soon. And it won't be good. I will make sure you regret messing with me, your time is up. I won’t take your shit again,” Amanda vowed to herself feeling anger coarse her system instead of the fear she earlier felt.She fastened her steps and entered James’ ward, James looked u

Amanda relaxed outside the door of James’ Ward painting. “What was that?” she asked herself, feeling ridiculous. James grabbing her hand had made her feel that way and she wondered why. It's been months of hating him, holding a grudge against him. He had disappeared on the most important day he was needed, the day that was his only child's birthday to party away in the club and he also hid the truth about her family from her, trying to cover it and if she hadn't been told, she wouldn't have known.He was an enemy who she now hated. Only what is keeping them from being really apart and stop seeing each other was his daughter so why is she still feeling the way she is feeling? Why would she still feel her heart go out to him the way it did?No, it was wrong, she wasn't supposed to be like that around him. Amanda bit her lips as she wondered how she would manage with him for the remaining days they would be stuck here. She wondered why Charles didn't come looking for them already. Was he

“What is going on? Amanda. Who is Micheal and why did the police come here asking you such questions?” James asked, looking at Amanda curiously.Amanda sighed as she bit her lips before looking away, James was the last person she wanted to tell about Micheal knowing how bad his temper was- he wouldn't mind confronting Micheal who has already placed a threat on his life but since the police had screwed everything, she wasn't sure she could keep quiet about it from him."Amanda please tell me, what's going on? Who's Micheal, and why is he harassing you?" He asked, his expression intense as he stared at her."Micheal...he's just someone who's been causing me trouble, he isn't much of a threat, just some tout who won't let me be because I'm a newbie here, that's all," Amanda started, lying as she tried to downplay the situation."What kind of trouble? Tell me, Amanda. I don't believe you because if it isn't serious, the police won't show up here to find you even as you didn't make any com

“So where is she?” Spider, one of the men asked. The man who had agreed to see Ananda stood before them, thinking deeply about where he had seen Amanda. The face looked very familiar to him but he couldn't place where he saw her.“Hey. You are wasting our time. Where is she right now?” Black, another of the men thundered, losing his patience.“Ehh I have been trying to remember but I can't. I believe you should ask one of the nurses. They will take you to her but the woman you are looking for is mainly found around this hospital. I think she stays here as a worker or a patient,” the man replied.“Okay. You may leave," Spider said with a sigh.“What do we do right now guys? What if the nurses recognize we aren't the police? How would we fix the mess?” the third man, Scorpio asked.“We have to at least try. We cannot fail to get her, not when we have been paid heavily. We need the rest of the payment so we have to do everything and taking risks is one of them. Let's go in search of a nu
