040 JOANA'S POV I walked to them, “Why are you still interrogating him? Did he still do something bad?” Mirabel and Japheth jumped into Clinton's arms, “Of course not. We are just making sure that he won't leave you or us.” Japheth said softly. “I won't leave you guys at all,” Clinton tickled them as they ran to Peter. “Peter, please take them out for lunch,” I said to Peter as he nodded and took them out. “See you soon, Daddy,” they waved as they made their way out of the room. I was about to go to Jake when Clinton dragged me, and I landed on his lap. He locked me in his grasp, “Let me go,” I tried to release from his grip, but it only made things quite difficult since I was put in a dangerous spot. “If you keep moving, we might make baby four in here,” Clinton whispered in my ears, and I froze. “What do you want?” Clinton nuzzled around my neck region, “I missed this scent so bad.” I was supposed to push him away and remind him how badly he treated me

041 CALEB'S POV “Shit!!!” How could I forget that I wanted to give Joana this? I looked at the fruit basket in my car, and I didn't want to make things more awkward between us. But if I should give it to the kids, I may be able to score some points. I took the basket and got down from my car. I saw Joana walking to her car with some suspicious people at her back. The next thing I knew, they threw a black sack over her head. I hurriedly went to her rescue, but they were too quick. I was able to get the plate number of the vehicle. Sending the information to my private investigator, I phoned him, “I want to track this vehicle now.” “Clinton…” I turned, locking eyes with Peter, “where is Joana?” He had the look of terror in his eyes. I walked up to him, “I want you to be strong for the kids. No matter what happens, tell them nothing, I'll get Joanna.” He nodded softly. “Here, take this, do not, I repeat, do not frighten the kids,” I gave him the fruit basket, retu

042 JOANA'S POV I gasped hard, forcing my eyes open, breathing hard as my eyes checked my environment. I was home. My door slowly opened, revealing Peter with a bowl of water. “Thank goodness, you're up…” he rushed to me, keeping the bowl of water on the desk. “What happened? Where's Clinton?” “One question at a time: firstly, you were abducted; I'm sure you were aware of that; the drugs that made you unconscious for a while tampered with your nerves, and the fright made you faint.” “Clinton was the one who saved you and brought you back…” My eyes widened, “he did not bring you back to the house but to the hospital. Caleb was the one who brought you home.” I sighed softly. This was getting more intense, I really don't want to keep getting drugged. “Are you…” Caleb came in and ran to hug me. “I'll leave you to your business,” Peter said softly and left the room. “I can't… breathe,” I was choking over the tight hug. “I'm sorry, I just couldn't bring myself to

043 JOANA'S POV His gaze was soft and passionate. I walked gently to the chair, far from Caleb and Clinton, who were boring holes into their bodies. “How are you feeling now?” Clinton asked softly. “I'm feeling much better. Thanks for asking.” I took a sip of water. The thick silence clouded the room. “Peter, I think it's time to take the kids inside, I, Caleb and Clinton, need to have to talk.” Peter nodded softly, taking the three kids inside the room. “Bye, Daddy…” The three of them waved their father goodbye. The room became silent for some while, no one daring to make a sound. I sighed softly. “Clinton, how did you get to find her immediately?” Caleb started with his interrogation. “I followed the vehicle that abducted her,” he said blankly. “Why didn't you stop them before she was abducted?” Caleb shot. “I could have, but I was too far from them, so I had to follow her with my car and contact the police before things worsened.” “But-” “Aren't you gl

044 JOANA'S POV I went back to my cookies as Clinton left the room angrily, “man… this actually tastes nice.” Caleb forcefully took the plate from my hand, I whined, but he kissed me aggressively. He broke it, inches away from my lips, “are you done?” Caleb gritted his teeth angrily and went back to his seat. I took back the cookies, “are you jealous? We aren't a thing yet.” “You fucking kissed him,” Caleb burst out angrily, but I could only laugh. This was the first time I saw Caleb like this, I needed to savor it. “Yeah… and I also kissed you, so…” I grinned hard. “Joana, you can use me however you want but promise me one thing, that you would never go back to that monster.” “And if I do?” I tried to tease him more. “I'll lock you up in a tower where it would just be us and the kids.” “That sounds nice if you think about it,” I joked as Caleb broke out a tiny laugh. “Finally, he laughed, I never knew I would be able to see that side of you, it's more… sexy.”

045 CLINTON'S POV I walked into the store with Anita, and as much as I really didn't want to be there, I had promised her that I would assist her. She barely asked for anything, and shopping with her won't be too bad. After all, we were half-siblings. I caught a glimpse of what seemed to look like Joana, I ran out to check if I was seeing things, but there was nobody there. After our conversation this morning, my mind hasn't settled. “Are you okay?” Anita placed her hand softly on mine. “You look pale like you had just seen a ghost,” she brought me to sit nearby. She walked to the receptionist to get a glass of water. “Thank you…” I drank the water in one gulp, “and I'm fine, I thought I saw someone that I knew.” “Joana?…” she asked calmly. I smiled softly, “No, it wasn't, just someone familiar.” I dismissed any other thing before it would lead to any misunderstandings. She didn't know Joana much. “So… Can we continue with our shopping?” Her voice was filled wi

046 CLINTON'S POV The room stood still, the officer's face was a bit guilty, “I'm sorry, I asked you that question. “You are just doing your job…” “Thank you for your cooperation,” the officer said softly and left. I returned to my seat, grabbing my phone from where it was. I was about to call someone when Caleb burst in, “seems you are Joana's first suspect.” He chuckled harshly. “And I think I should increase the security since you think you can just barge in here like you own it.” He smiled, taking a seat opposite me. “Do I look like I care? Anyways, let's get down to business. Since we're both businessmen, I thought we could have a business deal.” I raised my brow, suspicious of his word, why would he just come to the office that he swore he would never set foot in. “What business deal are you proposing?” He threw some files on my table, “I know you have been trying to get this bid for a while, but the client is a stubborn one.” I took the file and scan

047 JOANA'S POV I kept replaying the CCTV footage during the time of my accident, but it just kept playing the same thing over and over again. No one was ever close to my car during the period I was in the meeting, but it was not possible for the brakes to be tampered with when I was home. I was getting more confused when I got a call; I picked it up without even looking at the caller's name. “Hello…” I said softly, my eyes still glued to the screen. “You're gonna hurt yourself if you keep looking at the screen like that,” I turned to see Peter with a coffee mug in his hand. I ended the call, taking the coffee from him, “thanks.” “Did you find anything?” He asked, still maintaining a clear distance from me. “I honestly found nothing. It feels like I'm going in circles.” I maintained clear eye contact with him while sipping my coffee. “But you know what, I did find something weird,” I quickly noticed his change in demeanour; his pupils flashed with fear. “And that

069JOANA'S POV“Caleb… do me a favour,” I asked softly, squeezing the paper and throwing it away.“What favour, and what was in that paper?” He tried to glance at my path, but I had already disposed of the paper.“I'll explain later, but can you move back into the family house,” I immediately held my seat belt when he abruptly stepped on the brakes in the middle of the road.“Are you nuts?!”“Someone could have gotten hurt!”I yelled at the top of my lungs, placing my hands on my chest to calm my thumping heart.I checked around to see if there were any drivers on the road because they would surely land curses at Caleb's sudden reckless act.“I'm meant to ask you that you want me to move back in. Why?”“Firstly, get back on the road. Otherwise, we're going to get a ticket for stopping in the middle of the road. Once we get to the office, I'll explain better.”Caleb mumbled under his breath, and we got back on the road. On our way, I got a text from Clinton.“I've dropped the kids at

068JOANA'S POVCaleb brought out his middle finger at me and went back to his room. It was fun seeing him and cute and all.I retreated back to the room when I saw Mirabel lying on the bed sleeping again, I knew it. Her brothers must have woken her up since the two were up.But Japheth and Jake were already in the bathroom, splashing water everywhere. It was an annoying habit of theirs to fully wake themselves up.“Do you want your punishment to increase…”*“You're going to fall if you keep running around like that…”The kids were exploring the house while we waited for breakfast until Jake ran into Gates Senior.I immediately ran to him, but before I could take him, Gates Senior already had him in his hands.Jake looked terrified, “good morning, sir,” he said calmly.“Good morning boy, running around like that, you were going to hurt yourself,” he said to him softly.“Good morning, sir,” I said, reaching to my son, “I apologize. My son was just enjoying the house so much that he di

067JOANA'S POVCaleb wasn't happy that I was toying with his brains. He had no idea what I was talking about.“If she didn't have the child, then she would be panicking, but she's awfully calm,” Caleb asked, genuinely confused.I chuckled softly, “That's her facade, something she had been building for a long time,” I let out a tired yawn.“I need to head to bed. Tomorrow is going to be a long day in this house.”Caleb nodded softly, “Good night, have a good sleep.”Caleb slowly closed the door behind him. I slowly tucked myself, and a soft chuckle escaped my lips; Anita had been on top of this game for too long.It was time to make a triumphant return. Would I use my knight or play the games with my pawns?*I slowly flickered my eyes open, reaching out for my phone. It was barely 6am, I was hit with a terrible headache, and I needed some painkillers.Pushing Mirabel softly to the side, I made my way to the kitchen to make some warm lemon tea.I got closer to the kitchen when I heard

066JOANA'S POV“YOU SAID YOU HAD AN ACCIDENT, BUT ONLY FEW SCRATCHES!!!”Clinton quickly pointed out, his face cold with no expression on his father.“I… I didn't get into a nasty accident, just a mild one, that's why I have a few scratches,” she defended herself calmly.“And you fainted for over an hour,” Clinton attacked her again.She was trying her best to stay calm, but Clinton wasn't going to let her.“Clinton… you need to calm down, we should thank the heavens that she is safe and didn't get into a nasty accident. You would have blamed yourself for life.”I reasoned with him calmly that Anita may be smart, but she should learn how to cover her trails properly.One thing I have learnt so far about Clinton was that he hated being deceived.“I'm sorry… it was just too much for me to handle. Truly, I would have hated myself if anything should happen to you.”Anita smiled softly, “It's fine…” She darted her gaze in my direction. It was stern and deadly but still held an innocent lo

065JOANA'S POVWe arrived at the hospital as the kids waited with Caleb and Clinton, and I went into the doctor's office.“Luckily, there's nothing wrong with Japheth. Everything seems to be okay. He's a strong boy.”The doctor smiled, passing the documents to me and Clinton, “Doc, are you sure? It took us some time for us to get him out of the ball pit.”“The pit was truly deep, but there were no pressures on him, so thankfully, there are no internal injuries.”I let out a sigh of relief as we headed back to meet the others. Clinton got a phone call and excused himself.We headed to the parking lot when Clinton rushed to me, “I'm sorry, I won't be able to drop you and the kids off; I have an emergency.”He bent to the size of the kids, “Hey guys, Daddy is really sorry, but I can't drop you guys off. I promise to take you to school tomorrow.”“Pinky promise,” they stretched out their pinky finger to their father, who smiled and snuck his bigger finger pecked their foreheads and left

064JOANA'S POV“Mirabel…”My mother instinct kicked in, and I rushed to the sound. Mirabel was seriously crying; then I noticed that Japheth was missing, and Jake was removing some balls while crying.“He pushed Japheth,” she pointed to a boy who was hiding behind his mother. A tall man pushed them behind him.“Stop accusing my boy,” he growled at my girl. Clinton rushed him, grabbing him by the collar.“If anything happens to my own boy, today would be the last day you would see life,” he threatened.Caleb managed to bring Japheth. He was struggling to breathe properly.“Why wasn't your kid under parent supervision?” The man tried to defend his child.“Since your child was under parental supervision, why didn't you stop him? Oh wait, he's a child of a bully.”The man wanted to punch him, but Clinton dodged, folding his hand behind his back.“The dog who barks the most can't bite,” he pushed him away, “who's the manager of this place? I want the camera footage of this place asap, or

063JOANA'S POVI sighed deeply, entering the car, Japheth and Jake still had a long face while Mirabel tried to make them smile.“Don't put on such a long face; see, we're finally in Daddy's car,” Mirabel tried her best to cheer them up.Clinton shook his head, sighing, starting up the engine, and heading to the ice cream parlour.“Japheth… Jake, cheer up, remember I promised you ice cream, so if you don't smile, I'm turning this car back home.”The boys slowly raised their heads, putting up a small weak smile. They were still devastated, but I wanted to teach them a lesson.Nothing should ever make them throw their fists no matter the age they were.“Those are not genuine smiles, okay, I'm turning the wheels,” he made a fake turn, and the boys quickly shook him.“We're smiling; don't go back on your promise,” I was about to scold them for their tantrums, but Clinton gave me a glare.“Alright… you win, ice cream here we come,” Clinton cheered loudly.I didn't like the fact that the k

062JOANA'S POVClinton stopped talking. He was quite shocked by my behaviour, but I honestly don't blame him.“Funny how the old Joana couldn't say half of all you are saying,” he finally spoke up with a tiny smirk plastered on his face.I opened the door slightly. “Funny, right? Because the old Joana is dead.”I alighted from the car, walking slowly to pick up the kids when I saw my kids bowing their heads and a woman flaring with anger.Mirabel slightly raised her head and saw me immediately, Mommy…”I rushed to her, confused about the whole situation.“So you're the mother who can't train her children properly?” I raised a brow at the lady opposite me.Her son was standing by her side, I noticed my boys refusing to look at me even when I had arrived.“Japheth, Jake, I want you to raise your heads now,” I said in a commanding tone as they finally lifted up their heads.My boys had a black eye, and my sons had a freaking black eye.“Can somebody explain why on earth my boys have a b

061JOANA'S POVLouisa launched towards me but was stopped by Caleb, “The only reason I haven't beaten you up to a pulp is because you're a lady; don't try me.”Caleb growled as I chuckled lightly. Louisa, fuming with rage, ran to Clinton's side, but Clinton removed her hand from him.“Are you really doing this to me?” She yelled angrily.“You caused it. Besides, when will you stop ruining yourself? You're an adult. Act like one.”Clinton pushed her aside and walked to me. She screamed loudly, drawing attention to her.“Joana, mark my words, you will pay for all these, I promise you.” She picked up herself and left the place with her supposed minions.“How do you survive with this girl all the time?” Caleb scoffed, heading to his car.I chuckled softly, heading to Clinton. He tried to open the door for me, but I stopped him, “I agreed to ride with you. It doesn't mean I'll let you do all these shitty things.”Clinton's face turned cold. I don't know what he was expecting, but I hoped
