THE ARRANGED BRIDE CHAPTER EIGHTY-FIVE
TESSA’S POV“ Let’s do this guys!! “ I said to them. I turned to look at Kace who was standing beside me with a serious look on his face too and he nodded at me.Kace and I said a quick prayer before we left. This was the first time that we were praying together. I hoped our prayers would be answered as we made our way outside.I texted the Kidnappers that I am ready and they sent me a live location of where they were. I forwarded it to Agent Maynard. I wished that Kace could follow me, but that wasn’t possible.Suck it up, Tess! You can do this. I continued to remind myself.“ I got you a ford mustang. That is the car you’ll use today because it is fast. So here are the keys “ Kace said, handing the keys to me when we got outside.Did he buy me a Ford Mustang just for this mission? Kace always behaved like a normal and simple person no one would believe he was stinkingly rich. His simplicity was what attracted me.“ Thanks, babe, “ I said and hugged him tight. I didn’t even know I w

TESSA’S POVI was about to clear my throat to notify Brandon to change the thumbprint, but the dude raised his hand signaling for the men to wait.Let it not be what I am thinking.The men paused the process of untying my mom and we all watched as the dude type fast on the keyboard again and a few seconds after that he nodded his head again. Which made the armed men continue untying my mom. I was very observant and saw that the dude was looking at how the armed men were untying my mom. So, I reasoned there is no way he would transfer the money at this moment when he is distracted. Shortly after that, he stood up to enter the toilet. I knew it was a toilet that he entered because, when he opened the door to go in, I caught a glimpse of the inside.He didn’t come out even after they were done untying my mom and freeing her to come to me. I cleared my throat notifying Brandon that it was now or never.“ Thank you, “ I said to the kidnappers and took my mom's hands. She looked so scare

KACE’S POV“ The DNA test results are out “ I informed Tess with a frown on my face after I saw the message pop on my phone screen.Honestly, I didn't think there was any need to go. I didn't wanna go at all. They were who needed answers as far as I am concerned, I had already accepted my fate.Earlier today I was damn scared that I'll lose Tess and her mom when the Kidnappers began to shoot at them. It was all Brandon's idea to leave the car parked at that part of the road.At first, I wondered why but when some of the Kidnappers began their pursuit as they got into their jeep and went after Tess, that was when I knew the essence of my car being parked there.Thank goodness that it's all over now and we are all safe.“ What DNA test? Tessa’s mom and Brandon asked as they looked at me.“ My dad said he can't believe I'm his son because he sees so much of him in me. So he requested for a DNA test to be carried out and my mom just texted me that the results are out and he would like eve

KACE’S POVI turned to Tess, her mom, Brandon, and Eliana, they also had the same shocked looks on their faces as they looked at me. Why the fuck was everyone looking at me this way? I turned to Tess who was the one standing closer to me and she now has a mixture of happiness and surprise on her face. “ What's happening? Why is everyone looking at me like I've grown horns? “ I asked Tess in a whisper.“ Thank you very much and that'll be all “ My dad's voice made our attention go back to the crowd.He walked away from the pulpit and went into the manor as we all followed behind him. The reporters and journalists were already dispersing.When we got inside the house. I was curious as to what happened, I began to regret why I didn't pay attention to what he was saying back there.“ Can someone tell me why everyone was staring at me like that back at the press release? And also why are you all still staring at me this way? “ I asked while standing as everyone else sat down in the sitti

TESSA’S POVWhen I heard Kace say he wasn’t going anywhere with them and stormed out of the house, I wasn’t happy with his decision so I followed him outside.I held his hand intending to speak some sense into his head. I knew that he was mentally and emotionally down during the period that everyone was saying he was an adopted son. What broke him more was when Mrs Rachael confirmed to him that they weren’t his biological parents and she showed him proof. But now the table has turned in his favor, I felt like he was supposed to be jubilating, not being annoyed.Hearing him speak to his family made me realize just how hurt he had been. If there was something I knew about Kace very well it was the fact that he knew how to conceal his emotions.“ Where are you going? “ I asked him when I held his hand and he turned to me. I saw my mom, Eliana, and Brandon come out of the manor.“ Congratulations boss. You finally had the last laugh “ Brandon exclaimed in glee as he stretched his hand to

KACE’S POV“ I think I might have something that would help. There was a letter written to Kace when his mum was on her deathbed. His mom instructed that it should be given to him when he grows up. I forgot to give it to your wife when she came to adopt him “ Nun Briella said and Kace sat up on his chair when he heard that there was hope for him to find his biological mother’s family.“ Really? “ I asked the Nun and she nodded her head in affirmation. I didn't wanna ask but I couldn't stop myself from asking.The fact that my mom wrote a letter for me warmed my heart. At least, even though I didn't remember her face I would have something dear to her to hold onto.I was happy that she didn't give the letter to my foster mom because she might have thrown the letter away since she didn't want anything to implicate her or trace her back to the orphanage.The old Nun whose name was surprising Briella stood up and walked to the old and dusty shelf in her office. I thought Briella was a nam

KACE’S POVWe got no response, so I knocked again, and this time the door opened. But the person I saw got me confused and surprised.Nanny Agatha stood In front of us with a child in her arms. She looked at us with surprise evident on her face. I guess she was surprised to see the venture family here.We were also surprised to see her in this house. I hoped it wasn't what I was thinking. Calm down Kace, maybe she is working for them, I said to myself inwardly.“ Nanny Agatha!! “ Tessa called her name and went to hug her. She hugged Tessa back and when they pulled away, Tessa carried the baby from Nanny’s hands and held her.“ To what do I owe this surprise visit? Please come in and make yourselves comfortable “ Nanny Agatha said gesturing for us all to go in as she opened the door wider.We all went and sat down on the sofa in the sitting room. The house wasn't big, but it was cozy and had a nice feeling. So this is my mom's family house? Wow.“ Nanny, how have you been, “ I asked he

KACE’S POV“ What?! “ He exclaimed in shock with a frown making its way to his face, after hearing what the person who called him said. “ Kace and I are coming back right away. What time is it over there? “ My dad asked and the person replied to him. He ended the call after telling the person.“ What's the matter, Dad? “ I asked him when he ended the call and he looked really worried.“ All the investors in the company suddenly want to stop investing in the company “ My dad whispered in my ear and my eyes widened in shock.I was still trying to understand why each time I tackle a problem another one would surface from nowhere. I was getting tired of all this.“ Nanny Agatha. Let's all go back together. Even if you don't wanna come to live with us or work for us anymore, I'll buy you both a house and we'll search for a job for Barbara.

There was a knife covered with blood beside her.I gasped at the sight in front of us. She was stabbed to death. Could it be that she committed suicide? Or someone killed her.

Shit!! let me call you back “ Eliana said and ended the call abruptly.“ What just happened, why did she curse and end the call so abruptly? “ My mother-in-law who I didn’t even know was listening in on our conversation asked me.That was the same question I was asking myself right now. Why did she end the call so abruptly? I was worried and so was Tess and her mom.I dialed Brandon’s number to ask him to track Eliana's phone so that we would know her location and go to check on her because I feared that she was in danger due to the way she ended the call abruptly.“ Hey Brandon, please can you track Eliana’s number?

TESSA’S POVSeeing Kace trying to communicate with his eyes to Agent Maynard and Brandon who just walked into the house with smiles on their faces was funny.I'm pretty sure that he was trying to tell them not to utter a word because Brandon was about to speak.Luckily Agent Maynard understood the message Kace was trying to pass across when he saw Kace's foster mom seated with my mom. He held Brandon’s hand and signaled for him not to talk.I also knew that deep in my mom's heart, if she was given the chance she'll shred my mother-in-law into tiny little pieces. My mom was nice and kind but she was also fierce when necessary.“ Good evening everyone “ Agent Maynard greeted us and we answered with a nod of our heads. I noticed that my mother-in-law looked at Agent Maynard warily.Eliana stood up and kissed Brandon passionately. They were lost in their kiss that I had to clear my throat before they pulled away from each other. Brandon sat down with Eliana while I sat with Kace. Agent Ma

KACE’S POVI drove home as my heart leaped for joy knowing that Tess had regained her memory. That means we would be able to know what happened before she had the accident. Argh, I couldn’t wait to see her.It took me just twenty minutes to drive to my house. My gatekeeper opened the gate for me and I drove in. I quickly parked my car and went into my house, heading upstairs straight.When I got to the front of my bedroom door, I paused and let out a sharp exhale before turning the doorknob of the bedroom door and going in. Hardly had I closed the door when Tessa ran and crushed me in a bear hug.I hugged her back as the scent of her shampoo graced my nose, it was soothing and made me realize how much I was scared if she didn't remember anything.The thought she was carrying my child too made me nervous and glad at the same time. What would be her reaction if I told her? I thought to myself but pushed the thought aside.We pulled away from each and shared a passionate kiss. It was sho

KACE’S POVIt was high time we put an end to all these things happening to us once and for all because I knew without any doubt, that all these things happening were connected to one person and so help me God the day we catch the person behind all this, I’ll kill that person myself, I thought to myself and stepped on the accelerator angrily, zooming off to Vin’s place. I pulled up into Vin’s parking space after twenty minutes and rang the doorbell. The door opened immediately as though the person had been standing at the door and waiting for me.“ What's up? How is Tess doing? Any good news regarding her health? “ Brandon asked immediately after I got into the house.It was noon and really sunny outside, so when I got into the house, I loved it when the cold emitting from the air conditioning in the house touched my skin. It felt refreshing.“ I don't know man, “ I said and slumped on the couch in Vin’s sitting room tiredly. It was only at this moment that I knew how exhausted I was.

The man with striking brown eyes rushed to me and called me babe when he saw that I was awake.Babe? Isn't that the pet name that lovers called themselves? So why was he calling me that? I frowned because I didn't remember knowing this man. So I asked who he was and he looked at me, surprised at the question I just asked.An elderly woman and a young lady around my age rushed into the room and they called me, Tessa. The woman said she was my mom but I couldn't remember anything.I was frustrated but didn't show it, these people seemed very worried and I felt venting my frustration would make them worry more.I told the handsome man with striking blue eyes and jet black hair that I didn't know him and also the woman.
