One month later……Ophelia left the convenience store with the large grocery bags in her hands she hissed in frustration, she felt bad she still had to depend on Rome even after the divorce she could only survive because of his debit card that was with her, thinking about Rome she can only force a smile.Just when she was about to board a taxi a call from Milna buzzed her phone.“Hey little Milly” she yelled after picking it up. “Hey big sis, I hope you didn't forget what day tomorrow is!?” Milana screamed cheerfully on the phone.“What day is that!?” Ophelia questioned confused.“Like fucking seriously!!” Am graduating tomorrow. Milana yelled at the other end.“Am sorry sissy” I have a bad memory, but I won't be able to come to Milana, Am so sorry I will prepare your gift at home. Ophelia apologized sincerely.“Everything is alright with me big sis!!” I will just hurry home tomorrow I need to meet my handsome brother-in-law. Milana exclaimed happily.“Yes, dear!” He will also be glad
The Next day,Sophia drove straight to the location where Celine told her they should meet yesterday with Logan hiding in the backseat, she parked her car, Alighted walking a few inches she saw Celine who was patiently sitting surrounded by her bodyguards.“Bring a chair for my friend” she commanded and the guards rushed in and brought out a chair for Sophia to sit on. She glared at Celine with a disdainful look and smiled.“Guess you wanted to bribe me to keep your shameful secret right!?” Sophia questioned with a sarcastic smile.“I think shutting your mouth for good will be best” Celine declared raising her eyebrows. And you think “The Cole” will let you live Sophia replied with a smirk.The Cole doesn't like their daughter who has been on a run with a man all these years and I help them to erase her, do you think they won’t be thankful to me for killing a nitwit like you?“You must be so full of yourself” You cunning witch! Sophia yelled at the top of her lungs.Then let me kill
Milana ran out and took a taxi back to her hostel in tears.“Milana!!” wait up, please stop! Sieena called out but she never heeded.Milana got to the hostel and stumbled into her room, she clutched the bed sheet closer and covered her face with it while crying profusely she couldn't believe her sister had been in a fake marriage all these years just for her to graduate from her dream university.“Noo!” No!! This must be a dream!” This has to be a one. Milana shrieked in tears, hitting the bed with frustration. “Milana please stop!” The deed has been done already please find a place in your heart to forgive your sister and apologize to her sincerely.

Sophia shifted restlessly in her sleep, her slender body intertwined in the bedsheets. Her brow furrowed, Her lips parted slightly, She was finding it uncomfortable to sleep whenever she closed her eyes all she could hear was Ophelia's voice “Just go there and face your fears” came the voice again ringing in her ears.Sophia stood up abruptly “What the fuck!” she yelled angrily. She entered the bathroom stripped naked and put on the shower letting the water spray on her body freely.Coming out of the bathroom, her soft black hair gurgling wet, she adjusted her towel with a frown still on her face, sitting by the bedside she was lost in her thoughts.“She is just a woman! why is she so difficult to confront!?” If am her grandson's wife why can't just go to her bravely and let her recognize me, rather than running helter-skelter like a fool? I must go without Logan's consent, and that's the only way to make me feel at peace she affirmed standing up and walking towards her wardrobe.She
“Where is Sophia!” Logan yelled at the top of his voice. Bianca looked at him without saying a word.Outside, A car screeched to a halt, revealing an angry figure it was Jude Piers Logan's father. He slammed the door shut, fury etched on his face. Bursting into the house, his voice boomed, “Logan! What were you thinking?”.“Father!!” Logan called out, Grandmother trapped that innocent girl in this house Logan explained Ignoring his father’s laments.Jude walked closer to him and slapped him hard across the face. “So you are telling me you came back here mainly because your girl was trapped here”. “Father!!” But….Logan wanted to explain more when his mother gave him another slap angrily, “apologize at once” She commanded.“Am not saying a word without confirming Sophia was okay!” Logan stated angrily.“You sure have grown up my grandson” Bianca mocked. She stood up on her feet and walked closer to Logan. She leaned closer to his ears and whispered “Then let’s go back to your younger
Celine walked towards the dining sluggishly she had caused another mess yet again and Lucas had locked her in the house for the whole two days. She was suddenly brought out and the maids bathed her and changed her clothes saying her father wanted to have dinner with her.Everyone believes it's a dinner but she surely knows he sent for her because he needs her to do another dirty work for him. Deep she wished Logan had killed that day then she would have escaped her father's wealth.“Good evening father!” she greeted with a faint smile.“Sit down!” he said without looking up.“Thanks, Father!!”“Who did you say the guy was again!?” Lucas asked finally raising his head to look at the look straight in her eyes hoping to get an answer.He was Logan Piers, the only grandson of Bianca Piers. Celine replied tiredly.“Hmmm,” then how can you mess up with that kind of person? Since it has come to this we need to change our plan.“To what again Father!!” Celine inquired it was evident she was g

Bianca was supposed to get a message from her anonymous number today but for some reason, she got no response not even a text message or a call making her feel more anxious and infuriated. “Get out!” She yelled at all the maids in her room and they all rushed out at once without questioning her. She stood up on her feet and was pacing back and forth around her bed when her phone screen suddenly lit up with a smile she quickly rushed towards and checked where the message was from seeing it was anonymous her lips lit up with a smile. She quickly examined the message but what she saw got her confused she was expecting feedback but she saw a next message of a location where she was asked to come to. “[Why do we need to meet!?] Bianca texted back unhurriedly.

Sophia jumped off the bed when she noticed someone sneaked inside the room. Turning towards the door she saw Van in a bloodied clothe and quickly ran towards her.“What happened to you!?” she asked rushing towards Van as fear gripped her.“Undressed your clothes and get back on that bed now!” Van yelled pushing her back with one of her hands.“I don't understand you!” Sophia replied confused anxiety clamoring over her.“Just obey me first!” And act like you are me, I always slept naked so nobody dared to penetrate inside my room. Van yelled and quickly ran to the bathroom.Sophia stripped her upper body naked and quickly jumped on the bed. She covered herself with the blanket and turned her back to the door direction pretending to be asleep.The guards rushed past her room and one of them stopped in front of Van's room as if noticing something unpleasant. He knocked and called can name repeatedly but on getting no response he decided to walk in and confirm Van was really in her room.
Sophia turned around in darkness and walked continuously on a lame road with no destination in mind. She met no one on her way and everything was so dark with only the moon reflecting lighting up her way. Suddenly she saw an older woman blocking her path with her back facing Sophia. “Please can you let me pass I want to go and see my mother she begged. But the older woman remained immobile not moving from where she was standing like a statue. “Go back!” you can't see your mother the woman yelled back still not moving from where she was standing. But I want to see her, I can’t leave without seeing her Sophia replied with a pout. The older woman turned towards Sophia it turned out to be her mother. She quickly ran towards the woman and enveloped her in a deep hug. Mother I have missed you so much. She exclaimed but what she heard next surprised her. Some shouted her name and she met herself in the bathroom still hugging someone tightly. “Sophia!” remember you said you loved Loga

He can't help but feel something is off with Dave. It felt like Dave was trying to cover for Georgina but for what reason will he be willing to go to that length for her?Maybe I was just overthinking it, and nothing happened, Rome thought to himself then he remembered the assassin that came to the house and shot Georgina also Adrain insisted she was the killer of Savvanna.“What the hell is happening!?” He questioned himself unable to dwell on it any longer he decided to go to bed.Logan turned in his bed unable to sleep ever since Adrain said the killer was also the one that killed Savvanna
Rome returned to Sinclair’s mansion and told his parents and his grandfather all the plans. With their authority, he prepared a hideout for Raymond.Raymond was moved out of the house as he retreated with some of his guards and Sara. While the Piers guards chased them out as planned. Luckily for them, Van and her gang just return to check the situation.Raymond pretended to be in a coma while they watched out for the kidnapper's next plan. Some of his men are still in the Coles mansion making it easier for them to pass information.Van returned to the hideouts and informed their Godmother that they had succeeded in their mission. So that they could proceed with the next plan. {IN THE HOSPITAL}Georgina just finished her surgery and was moved to the ward the nurse finished dressing her up and was about to leave the ward when Gorgina suddenly grabbed her hand.“Ahhh!” the nurse screamed in fear, Georgina just finished her surgery so she couldn't believe she could wake up imme
“Am innocent!!” Georgina yelled trying to catch her breath.“Georgina was with me all through yesterday how the hell will she appear in the Coles mansion!?” Dave declared glaring at Sara coldly.“Then those that means am blind!?” I was shot yesterday and she treated my wound like a professional and hid me and Sara in a house to protect us. “So what the hell are you insinuating!?” Logan yelled at Dave.“At this junction, we just have to investigate everything all over!?” Rome asserted trying to calm everyone down.Just then a masked lady barged in and pointed a gun at Ophelia.

Logan stirred awake and saw Sara sleeping by the side not too far away from him he looked around the room and there was no sign of Gorgina he checked his and it was well stitched and bandaged well that he felt no excruciating pain from it.He still up and rested his back on the wall, he couldn't help but think about Sophia and the recent situation the Piers mansion will be in right now, no matter what he heard he would never believe Sophia was dead not until he figured it out by himself.He glanced at Sara gently and couldn't resist the urge to wake her up and bombard her with questions about how she knew Gorgina and what exactly happened in Cole’s mansion. Sara turned in her sleep and opened her eyes slowly, she saw Logan glancing at her and she quickly jumped up and stood on her feet.“Y..Yo…u are awake!?” She asked stammering.Logan only nodded in reply and looked away from her still resting him back comfortably. “You are not going to ask me about anything!?” Sara questioned her
Logan was still in his room when he heard the sounds of a gunshot not once or twice he quickly rushed out of the house and met his father on the way as they both rushed out.Some of their men were already shot down while some are still bringing down some other guards who are trying to penetrate inside the Piers mansion. He took out his guns alongside his father trying to fire the trespassers “Where the hell Is Bianca!!” they heard an angry voice and Raymond came out amidst the crowds.“What!!!” Father-in-law Logan yelled and ran towards him. “Everyone cease fire!” He commanded and everyone stopped shooting including Raymond’s men. But they still hold on to their guns ready to strike if any of the party makes a move.“Father what are you doing!?” Logan asked calmly rushing towards him. “So you are really from the Piers!?” and you tricked me Raymond yelled angrily ignoring his questions.“So??” is that why you attacked us? Because “you didn't want the two families to become in-laws!?”
Raymond woke up with a groaning headache he scanned through the whole room and found no one he stood up from the bed and walked outside he saw everyone moaning they were all wearing black clothes while moaning someone undisclosed.He walked towards Sara who was wailing on the floor uncontrollably “What is happening!?” he asked but his questions went unanswered as Sara did not even look up to him or reply to him.“Are you all daft!?” Raymond shouted but no one turned to him or paid any attention to him.He angrily walked closer to Sara and gave her a sound slap across the face but he was surprised his hand just passed through her body without touching her.He tried to slap her again but his hand just passed by her again he tried to talk to her but then she stood up to him and walked past him. That's when it hits him that he is invisible.She went to the burial room and he followed her she got to the room and offered her last prayer to the deceased. Raymond looked at the picture of the
