At the police station the next day, the police had already gotten the truth out of the man they arrested who led them to Agnes and she was also arrested and taken to jail.James was informed and he rushed down to the police station.“James, I didn't do it. I was framed. Agnes cried out immediately she saw James and tried to rush at him but the police stopped her, and they took her away to the interrogation room.Agnes sat in the interrogation room, her face downcast and emotionless. It was like she had given up and she looked so hopeless."Come on, Ma’am," one of the police officers said, his voice firm but persuasive. "We have evidence. We know you were involved in the confession the culprit had made, he even mentioned you as the one he works for. Just come clean. Confess everything and make this easier on yourself,” the policewoman in charge of the case said to Agnes.Agnes shook her head, her lips pursed. "I won't admit to anything," she said, her voice cold.“I didn't do it. Why s

"James, pick up the phone," Amanda muttered under her breath, pressing redial for what felt like the hundredth time. Her thumb hovered over the screen as the call failed again. A familiar automated voice declared, "The number you are trying to reach is not available." She sighed heavily, pacing the living room. The balloons and streamers swayed gently in the breeze from the open window. Kendall's birthday party was long over, or, more accurately, it had never truly begun. The cake sat untouched on the dining table, the candles burned out hours ago. Amanda glanced at the clock. It was past midnight, and James still hadn't shown up. "Mama, where's Daddy?" Kendall's sleepy voice broke through Amanda's thoughts. The little girl clung to her favorite stuffed bunny, her eyelids drooping from exhaustion. Amanda knelt beside her, brushing a strand of hair away from her daughter's forehead. "He'll be home soon, sweetheart. Daddy promised, remember?" she said softly, though her voice fa

Amanda stared at the old photograph with trembling hands as several thoughts filled her mind. Her eyes darted back to the stack of papers and the brown envelope scattered on the floor. The picture was unmistakable, her younger self, standing between her parents on the front porch of the home that burned down fifteen years ago. It was the only photograph she remembered them ever taking together, yet she had none after the fire. How could James have this when she herself had nothing? Her fingers shook as she reached for the faded documents in the envelope. The first letter was worn and smudged, the ink barely legible. She squinted, piecing together the words. “Take down his company. Ruin him before he gets too powerful.” Amanda’s chest tightened as she flipped through more letters, all addressed to an unknown recipient. They were instructions to sabotage her father’s business, details of bribes, blackmail, and calculated moves to destroy his reputation. She could hardly breath

“Amanda, what’s going on? You sound like you’ve seen a ghost,” Lizzy’s voice crackled over the phone. “I need to see you,” Amanda replied, her voice trembling. “Please. It’s urgent.” Lizzy hesitated but finally said, “Okay, meet me at the café on Seventh Street at six. We’ll grab breakfast.” Amanda hung up, walking around the living room in a frenzy. It was almost 5 a.m and she hadn’t slept a wink. The fear that someone was watching her, waiting to strike, kept her on edge. She glanced at Kendall, still sound asleep in her room, and clenched her fists. James still hadn’t returned, and she couldn’t bring herself to call him again. What was the point? She was certain now that her life, and her daughter’s, was in danger. When the clock struck six, Amanda left Kendall in the care of her babysitter. She threw on a hoodie and a cap, making sure her face was partially hidden, and drove to the café. Lizzy was already seated, sipping a latte. When she saw Amanda approach, her jaw

“I can't just forget about her, Mom!" James shouted, walking back and forth in the living room. His voice cracked with frustration and sympathy. "She took Kendall and disappeared without a word. How can you expect me to let that go? I wasn't expecting that from you, mum. Who knows? My daughter might be in danger. I wouldn't watch while Amanda takes her away from me and neither you would stop me from getting her back" His mother, sitting calmly on the couch with Betty by her side, sighed heavily. Looking at how pathetic he has become because of Amanda. “That good for nothing girl,” she whispered under her breath. "James, you’re wasting your time. Amanda doesn’t want to be found. She made her choice. You need to move on with your life. Stop chasing after her and focus on the future." James stopped in his tracks and turned to face her. “The future? What kind of future do I have without my daughter? How can I move on when my child is out there, growing up without me? If you can'

James swallowed the lump in his throat, trying to ignore the pain of seeing Kendall so close yet so far away. "Amanda, I—" "What are you doing here?" she interrupted, her shock quickly giving way to anger. "You have no right to be here." "I'm here for Kendall,"James managed to say, his voice hoarse with emotion. "I'm not leaving without her." “What? You ain't serious. You left us and never bothered to contact us and now you showed up here asking for Kendall. Did you ever act like you have a daughter?” Amanda questioned. “What do you mean, Amanda? Don’t act like I am the one in the wrong here. You left me, taking our daughter along with you,” James said. “Yeah I did and I don’t regret it,” Amanda replied trying so hard not to give in to the emotions messing her mind up on seeing James again. “Amanda, you!” “Let’s not keep this conversation any longer,” Amanda cut him off. “It is already over and be it known to you that I left for good,” Amanda dropped the bombshell, trying so muc

Amanda's determined words still lingered in the air when she noticed a fixed pair of eyes on her. She turned to see her daughter standing by the door, her head leaning against the frame and her hands by her side, gently fidgeting with the hem of her pink floral dress. It was a habit she practiced when nervous."Kendall," Amanda whispered, her voice barely audible as she walked towards her.She hoped that her daughter hadn't heard anything she said."Mommy, have you and Daddy worked things out?" She asked, her voice laced with hope and uncertainty.Amanda's eyes welled up with tears, but she turned to compose herself before proceeding to comfort her daughter."It's a bit complicated, Sweetie. But we will figure it out and everyone will be happy," Amanda fibbed, reaching her daughter."When can I see Daddy again?" She asked, longing for her father.Amanda knelt to her level, plastering a fake smile on her lips."Soon, baby," She replied.'Never!,' Amanda thought, her mind contradicting

Agnes was boiling when the call with Charles came to an end. She couldn't believe her ears. Everyone was suddenly on Amanda’s side. From James now to Charles. What is going on? What has she done to them to make them take her side?She paced around her room, thinking of what to do. She needed to do something before things got out of hand so she carefully thought about what to do and dialed a number."I need you to take care of someone," she said immediately a voice came on the other side of the line, her voice cold."Charles. He's becoming a problem. He wants to betray me and I can't allow him to scatter everything I have worked hard to come with. So make sure he doesn't spill even a word and you will also take care of a child that you would find with him. I will come in person tonight for further instructions,” Agnes explained.The person on the other end of the line agreed, and she hung up, a sense of satisfaction washing over her. She had taken care of the problem, and no one would

James couldn't complete his words as he went to get the door. It was Betty and she smiled at seeing him.“Hello, honey,” she happily called out to him. James barely replied to her before going back in.“Why are you here?” James asked her as he stopped with the conversation he was having with his mother earlier.“Your mom informed me you came visiting so I came to break the good news to you,” Betty said with a smile.“What are you talking about? What good news?” James asked, staring at Betty and then at his mother who went silent, enjoying her tea again.“Ohh you haven't been informed yet? Well, it is totally fine. I came to tell you that I am pregnant,” Betty dropped the bombshell.“What? Pregnant? What are you talking about? Pregnant for who?” James asked her with shock on his face.“For you James, I believe you haven't forgotten about the passionate night we spent together. This pregnancy is as a result of it,” Betty said with a triumphant smile.James's face twisted in incredulity.

Amanda happily prepared to leave with Charles. Today was day three since they came back from the remote village and she was all ready to hit the streets and go around looking for her daughter while James would start investigating her parents’ death. The past three days with James at her home had been filled with his recovery, them catching up and rebuilding their relationship and she didn't regret giving him a chance again after knowing the truth about it.“Hey. Where are you? I have been waiting?” Amanda said to Charles for the fifth time. It's been over 30 minutes since she arrived at their destination. A cafe where Charles had suggested they grabbed a bite because he was hungry and had been busy with a client since morning.He needed his strength before they set off to kindergarten and places where children were to check for Kendall.“I am so sorry for keeping you waiting. I had another client to attend to and had to sneak away before another one showed up,” Charles explained as he

James and Amanda sat in the living room, surrounded by papers and files, they hadn't had any time to waste because they needed to do a lot of investigation since they had been trapped and wasted almost a month at the remote village. James was determined to uncover the truth about Amanda’s parents’ death, deciding to focus on it after Amanda begged Charles to take up the case of looking for her daughter with her. "We need to gather as much information as possible," James said, his brow furrowed in concentration as he flipped through the papers he could gather from his home office where Amanda had mentioned she had seen the information before but they seemed not to find anything."Who were the people closest to your parents? Do you remember anyone?” James asked her after a futile result in finding anything related to the article.After James’ question, Amanda thought for a moment and she smiled when she remembered someone."There's Mr. Johnson, their old business partner. He was a cl

It all took just one more step before James and Charles finally showed up in the room where Amanda had been kept. They met Michael, the man watching Amanda with a smile on their face while she was now tied up and blindfolded.“What is going on here?” Charles yelled in anger before the police could stop him. He rushed at Michael who was the one standing nearest to Amanda and knocked him over while James rushed at the other men who were armless. Their weapons were stacked on the floor.“Who are you?” Micheal yelled at Charles who grabbed him and punched him severally in the face. Micheal tried to overpower Charles but couldn't, Charles was way stronger than him. Charles' strength showed he had served in the military and when Micheal felt that he became scared.“Are you not a policeman? Tell him to get off me,” Micheal managed to say before Charles knocked him out with his endless punch and one of the policemen grabbed Charles pulling him away from Micheal.James helped unite Amanda whil

Amanda stood there unable to believe her eyes. What will she do now that she has been tricked to come here by Micheal? She knew he would make sure she did what he wanted before she was able to leave there alive which scared the hell out of her.She tried to move back away from him while planning in her mind how to escape but he grabbed her and pushed her towards himself, his teeth clenching in his eyes as his eyes held so many warnings as if daring her to do what she had done again.Micheal's eyes glinted, dripping with malice as his face lit up with a knowing smile, and he went ahead to welcome Amanda."How does it feel to come to me like this, Princess? How does it feel for you to be trapped here with me?" he sneered, his words sending shivers down Amanda's spine.Amanda swallowed hard, her eyes narrowing as she tried to think of how she would be able to escape the dangers he was in, her mind racing with questions, especially with the questions on how Micheal showed up here."What's

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
