"Hello" "Dee, how are you?" "Claris what's wrong with you? Your voice sounded dull" "Danielle, I don't know what's going on. We have been running around for the past two days. I was going to call you tomorrow to see if you can help" "Calm down, what's wrong, I don't understand" "Dad have to submit his resignation letter and give a public statement tomorrow before 12pm" "Resignation letter?" Danielle was shocked. Politicians in this part of the world will never voluntarily resign even with video evidence of them collecting bribes in dollars. "Dee, we are all confused. You remember my dad's friend that I told you about? The one that talked to Honourable Benson." "Yes" her sugar daddy. "Even he couldn't help, he even told me not to call or look for him anymore. Danielle can you ask your dad if he can help? Please". "I don't understand CeeCee. Why exactly is he resigning?" "He wouldn't say anything. He kept blaming me, I have been grounded for two days now. We tried, but he wou
"But Bee don't you think it's odd that he is still walking around safe and sound without even bodyguards? Are you sure he is the one?""Mom said almost everyone that's anyone is praying for his long life. If anything out of the ordinary should happen to him, it will set off a series of chaos. He is a very good hacker and he is very smart. Plus he is not working alone""You mean his friends might be working with him?" Tokunbo was shocked that her boyfriend is part of the people working with him."Not his friends, he has some boys and girls working under him, from time to time he sends them abroad for courses to hone their skills and set more traps in case anyone tries to double cross him.""Wow, I am finding it hard to digest all of this information. I mean if I didn't know Jayden I won't be this shook. Do you think Janet know all this?""No, if she did, she won't be in a relationship with him. You know Jay Jay, she has this sense of righteousness, she won't want to date someone with a
"Have you done everything I asked you to do?"The person on the other side of the phone answered "Yes. Everything is in motion. We are going to act tomorrow.""Make sure you do it very well and most importantly, make sure you don't get caught""Understood"Beep beep beep.Danielle's face was gloomy. She smirked "She said he is powerful and all that, Cee Cee's dad didn't resign or give any public statement. They all just wanted to scare me, they all thought I was a fool. I can't reach Clarissa but no problem, now I will do what I have to do. We will see who the fool is by tomorrow"Danielle at this point was out of her mind with anger and not reasoning well. She thought that the Clarissa dad's saga was just a scheme orchestrated by her friends and dad to scare her into leaving Jayden alone. She felt betrayed and thought since everyone thinks that she is a fool she will show them who is foolish.Danielle needed an alibi, so she booked a flight to go see her dad and left the state that s
Jayden rolled over and try to put his arm around Janet's waist. When he couldn't reach her, he moved his hands several times on the bedsheet. Jayden opened his eyes and immediately realized she was not on the bed. He smiled and called out to her thinking she was in the bathroom. "Sunshine?"There was no response, Jayden stood up and walked towards the bathroom, he knocked and still no response, so he opened the door and find the bathroom empty. "Where could she be?"Jayden called out to Janet a few times and when he didn't hear any response he felt a bit anxious and walked to the sitting room. When he couldn't find her there, he went to the kitchen and the light was turned off. At this point Jayden panicked a bit and started calling out to Janet again. He checked all the rooms in the house, when he couldn't find her. He tried the main door and find it closed but unlocked. "Where will she go so early without telling me?" Jayden went back to the room and picked up his phone. He called
"Sir, we lost the car at Ajah. The squad hacked into several surveillance footages but the others are either turned off or the memory is full" Mathew gave Jayden updates while still typing furiously on his computer.Jayden feeling frustrated "Mathew I can't leave right now. I have to wait for the police to give a statement. I don't know how long it will take for them to get here. Call everyone, tell them to drop whatever they are doing. I want all hands on deck. Give Bode's boys Gideon or whatever his name is, give them his exact address and keep him till I get there ""Understood"Beep beep beep"Jayden calm down, we will find her" Deji doesn't even know how to help.Jayden nodded, David came back from Jayden's car and handed him the phone."Who are you calling?" Deji asked curiously. He knew Jayden only uses that particular phone if he doesn't want to be recorded or traced.Jayden ignored him and waited till the call connected. "Hel...""Where is she?" Jayden sounded firm but calm .
Danielle put on an act of innocence "Dad, I have nothing to do with it. We just came back together remember?"Senator Savage pretended to be thoughtful "So why would Jayden be so sure that you did it?""I don't know, ever since mom went to their house he has been hostile towards me. Janet is my best friend dad" Danielle started shedding crocodile tears."It's okay don't cry. I know you won't stoop that low because of a boy. Moreover I know you and Janet are very close. I will call him and tell him we had nothing to do with it" Senator Savage put on a fake sad face as he coaxed Danielle.Mrs Savage was very worried about Janet and can't help voice her concerns "Deremi, was she really kidnapped? Are her parents aware? They just left for Del city. Oh My God she is such a sweet girl. How can we help".Senator Savage sighed. 'Danielle was supposed to react this way. But since she was the architect of the whole thing she didn't even remember to at least fake the care' "Danielle go to your
Janet was lying on the floor close to the door, she was heaving as tears streamed down her face. When she became exhausted from yelling for help earlier she curled up in an almost foetal position as she sobs quietly. After she became conscious she shouted and cried so much that her voice became hoarse and her eyes became bloodshot and swollen. She felt exhausted and a bit weak. Janet was still crying quietly when she remembered that she was holding her phone when she left the room before she was abducted. So she quickly searched the large pockets of the robe she was wearing. Immediately Janet touched the phone she was so excited and quickly tried to call Jayden not noticing that the network signal on her phone was not showing any bars at all. After trying a few more times unsuccessfully, she checked the signals and saw that it was too low to make a call or send messages. Her initial happiness was replaced with immense sadness as she resumed her former position on the floor. After sh
Bibiana doesn't know what to think at this point. She stared at her phone then at Jayden and somehow unconvincingly said "She didn't do it guys" Jayden snorted "You believed that?" "I don't know Jayden. But Dee will never harm Janet. Trust me." "She clearly was acting. Nothing about that was natural" Deji shakes his head. Bode sighed "Everyone in our circle knew that when lil princess Danielle wants something. Then she gets what she wants. You are one of her closest friends, you should know that much." "I know her so well and that's why I am finding it hard to believe that she will kidnap someone and Janet for that matter. Trust me Danielle genuinely loves Jay Jay." "If she loves Jay Jay she won't be trying to covet her boyfriend." Deji sneered. Bibiana frowned "She is obsessed with Jayden I agree, but to actually go this far? I don't know, a part of me does not trust anything she said just now but the other part of me can't believe that she will stoop to that level." Jayden wa
Three months later "Jay Jay, you have always been beautiful, but now you are simply stunning. Jayden won't be able to take his eyes off of you today" Janet smiled as she looks at her reflection in the large mirror "You think?" "Of course and Jay Jay your wedding dress is to die for. Jayden is so attentive. Your baby bump is not showing at all. Sigh. You know what I did last night?" Bibiana smiled as she finally managed to push Douglas out of the doorway of the presidential suite and close the door. "What did you do?" Janet raised her brow. "I held a ring and told David to hold it the same way. He did and I slipped my finger inside. I pretended to be surprised and started shouting I do I do I do." Janet and Bibiana couldn't stop laughing. "Toks, David is smitten, if not, with all of your antics. He would have japa from you by now" Bibiana smiled mischievously "I agree with Jay Jay. What did he say though?" "He said he is not ready for marriage" "Aww. It's okay. He will event
"Are you sure you don't know who it was that is the mastermind behind your kidnapping?"Janet smiled and nodded her head "Yes sir, I don't know the men. I saw them for the first time that day. And I don't know who asked them to kidnap me either""You do know Danielle Savage right?"Janet clutched her gown tightly but her facial expressions didn't change at all "Yes. She is my friend""Is she in anyway involved? Or do you suspect her?"Janet shook her head "No, she is my best friend. She didn't do anything"The Police Officer in charge of the investigation looked at Janet thoughtfully, he asked her the same question several times already and she kept saying the same thing. 'Mr Jayden said it was Senator Savage's daughter, but if she is not saying anything there is nothing he could do about it.' he sighed "Okay. I will file your statement. However if you remember anything later, you can come at anytime or call me, okay?" "Okay, thank you""You are welcome. You may leave"Jayden was on
"Remember, try to control your emotions. We will tell them everything some other time. It's okay to be sad when talking to them they will just think you are missing them. But they will suspect something is off if you cry. I can't put this off anymore so be ready"Janet nodded."It's ringing"Janet's mom picked up "Hello""Hello mom, I was able to finally drag your daughter away from her office. I didn't know she was such a workaholic"Mrs Desmond laughed "She is a workaholic. She always bring work home. Even during the weekends"Janet smiled and was about to tear up, Jayden shook his head."Her boss gave her all those days off like a good employer and now he made her do all the work in a day""It's okay, she can handle it. She also likes working""Here she is ma""Hello mom""Janet how are you?""I am fine, how is everyone doing?""We are all fine. What's wrong with you? Your voice sounds off"Janet sniffled "I am fine, I am a little tired and missing you all a lot""Awnnn, we miss yo
"Yes Dee. I told you about him right? You didn't believe me. First you went home with your dad and then you went to Ajah where you kept her. Is that not where you answered my call while lying to me that you were locked up at home. Then you left after you entered the building. You saw us at Jericho right? Then you ran away because you did not want us to know that you were not at home. You even went to my neighborhood before that time" Danielle was completely pale as she stare at Bibiana in shock. 'They knew all along?' Tokunbo was disgusted "With friends like you, why would anyone need enemies!" Danielle got angry when she heard what Tokunbo said and screamed "Yes I did it!" Janet already knew but she still trembled in Jayden's arms as she finally heard her admit it. In a shaky voice she pulled Danielle away from Tokunbo and asked "Why?" Danielle felt guilty initially but right now she was mad that everyone is throwing accusations at her. Regardless of whether she did it or not, sh
Janet looked at Danielle with a bit of disappointment in her eyes and continued. " That room was adequately stocked, If I wasn't alone I would have thought I was in Small Sister's house. You know what the funny thing was? Me thinking you were kidnapped along with me and was probably in another room similar to mine. That's the only explanation I could come up with at first. Because you called me and the ring tone woke me up, then I heard your voice at the door. I was so worried that they kidnapped you first and forced you to lure me to the door." Janet chuckled self derisively and continued "The phone was useless because there was no signal. I tried calling Jayden several times, but it was useless. But when I later watched the video..."Danielle can't stop thinking what video was it that she keeps talking about "What video Jay Jay? I didn't do anything"Janet didn't say anything and stood up to look for her phone, when she checked the bed and can't find it, she was contemplating askin
The doctor completed her examination and stepped out of the guestroom. She frowned her face and asked "Jayden have you called the police?""They are aware. They told me she can come and give her statement tomorrow when she is better" "Okay, because I noticed that she is suffering from either PTSD or shock, she is not responding to any of my questions. She is fine, but she has few bruises. No sign of rape or any extreme bruise caused by blunt force trauma. The bruises she got are probably from been carried roughly."Everyone sighed in relief. "But..."Everyone turned to the doctor anxiously. "Relax it's not a bad thing. Although I can't be affirmative, but I am almost sure that she is pregnant""Pregnant?" Bibiana almost screamed.Everyone was dumbfounded especially Jayden. 'Pregnant?' "Yes. I am not 100 percent sure. I have drawn her blood. We can only be sure after proper tests are carried out. I will try and also check for traces of the drug they used on her."The doctor handed J
"I don't think it's okay to move her around too much until the doctor gives her a full check up" Tokunbo nodded "Yes I agree with Bee, let's wait until she is awake. Bode called the doctor that will check for trauma right? Let him come, by then the cleaners we sent to her house would have finished cleaning. Then we can decide if she needs to go to the hospital or home." Jayden was still looking at Janet's face intently. "Alright" They all went back to the sitting room. Bibiana saw how relieved everyone was now that Janet has been found. "What do you guys want to eat?" "Noth..." "Nothing" "Anything" Bibiana looked at Deji, Bode, and David with amusement in her eyes. Deji and David looked at Bode and shook their heads. "Don't mind him, we just ate. We were at Nuban when Tokunbo called" "Deji, I didn't get to eat anything. I was on the phone throughout remember?" David sneered "Shameless!" "What? I just got my appetite back. Jayden didn't eat either." Bode looked aggrieved.
"Deji can I borrow your car?" Deji looked at Bibiana, then his precious Brabis, then Bibiana again. He shook his head and reluctantly gave her the key to the Brabis. Bibiana collected the key and turn to Tokunbo "Tokunbo let's go" Tokunbo that was still frightened after seeing two dead bodies was shaking like a leaf in David's arms. David held her and guided her to the passenger seat. He helped her fasten the seat belt and told them to drive carefully. Bode and the boys got into Jayden's car and also drove off. Tokunbo still trembling a bit looked at Bibiana and in a shaky voice said "Bee, I have not seen a dead body that close before and not that mangled. I am going to have nightmares for the next few days" Bibiana smiled bitterly "I am just thankful that none of them is a female" "Bee, are you also convinced that Danielle did it?" "I wasn't at first, but how do we explain this Toks? She came here and suddenly the building is on fire and now there are dead bodies. What sort
Bibiana doesn't know what to think at this point. She stared at her phone then at Jayden and somehow unconvincingly said "She didn't do it guys" Jayden snorted "You believed that?" "I don't know Jayden. But Dee will never harm Janet. Trust me." "She clearly was acting. Nothing about that was natural" Deji shakes his head. Bode sighed "Everyone in our circle knew that when lil princess Danielle wants something. Then she gets what she wants. You are one of her closest friends, you should know that much." "I know her so well and that's why I am finding it hard to believe that she will kidnap someone and Janet for that matter. Trust me Danielle genuinely loves Jay Jay."
