MIA'S POV"No you don't mean that. You are only saying this now because you are hurting. Believe me, you will overcome it. You are still young and there are lots of opportunities for you to still have kids as much as you want." My aunt said to me,"That will never happen again." I replied with utmost conviction, my eyes blazing with anger.I don't care what anyone may think. It is my life and with what I'm going through right now, I don't think I want to even consider going through it again."You are hurt right now and you probably don't understand what you are saying." My Aunt said while nodding her head in understanding. How could they do this to me? What did I ever do to them? All I ever wanted was to live a peaceful life with the bundle of joy that God gave to me. Now, that won't ever happen again. It is too painful and I can't take it anymore. I just wanna die alongside my princess.Aiden was staring at me like he wanted to say something but decided against it. "I just couldn'
MIA'S POV"STOP RIGHT THERE." The bodyguard said to the servant who immediately put her head down. "I'm so sorry ma'am! I got carried away. I was just so excited that you are finally home.""It's fine," Aiden said. I smiled and thanked them all but my smile wasn't coming from my heart. I have become so weary of every one of them. I don't know who my friend and foe are anymore.I took in the sight of the house once more before allowing Aiden to lead me inside. Once inside, there was some decorated cardboard with written words of; Welcome back home ma'am, it is so good to have you back with us. They were all rejoicing that I was back home and so oblivious of the situation on ground or, they just choose to be blind about it. The only person who seemed a little different from them all was Mr Timothy. I wondered why he was looking so unlike himself."Welcome back home ma'am and sir." He slightly bowed in respect."Thank you Mr Timothy." Just then, my eyes landed on the door to my ba
MIA'S POV"I think I remembered something that took place that day, Aiden."We both sat up at the same time. "Really? Tell me, what did you remember?" I saw an eager look of anticipation on his face.I had really hoped I might have some information that will help us in any way with the case. "After my food was served, Mr Timothy tasted the food from my plate as usual. Then after some minutes, he left me to go shower since I was already eating. Then I decided to go use the bathroom. I actually took my food to my room. While I was in the bathroom, I heard a noise. It felt like someone was either opening the door or closing it but when I came out, I didn't see anyone there.""I thought it was a figment of my imagination. It was after I finished eating that I started feeling serious pain in my stomach. I threw up blood and suddenly, it became almost impossible for me to breathe. I started calling out for help. I don't know how Mr Timothy managed to hear me, because I was fighting to bre
AIDEN'S POVI was so happy to see the radiance returning back in Mia's face. I took it upon myself to cook food that she eats . There was a lot of questioning gaze on me, but no one dared say anything to me. It's been two days now since we returned back from the hospital and I see her fighting to get well fast. She never missed her medication for a single day. I woke up a little bit late today. I had worked all through the night. I used my hand to feel her like I always do since she started sleeping in my room but she wasn't there. I sat up immediately thinking something bad must have happened to her but no one can break into my room because of the high security door that was used for my room. I waited a bit, thinking she might probably be in the bathroom. After some time, I went to the bathroom door and called out her name but there was no response. I opened the door but she wasn't there. I looked through the curtain to the balcony, she wasn't there either. Panic stricken, I op
MIA'S POV" Have you been crying lately, Miss Anderson? "Well, I…I… " I stammered.I looked at Aiden but he only nodded for me to go on. "Well……."I trailed off with my words, not knowing exactly how to answer this question."That explains the headaches." The doctor concluded. "We have been over this before. This isn't good for you. You need to think about your health. Stop straining and putting your brain through so much work now."I just nodded my head on response because I had nothing to say to him."Let see the wound. I'm going to be changing the bandage today."The doctor examined me and changed the bandage on my wound. All these while, Aiden never took his eye off me. He watched me closely like a mother hen."Okay, my work here is done Miss. You are doing well but try not to strain yourself so much. The wound is still fresh but healing gradually. You will return back to your normal life activity in no time." He said before turning to Aiden " If you ever feel anything out of the
MIA'S POV."So, you went in and didn't lock your door? Why did you do that?""I don't understand your question." I was beginning to get angry with his questions. "What I'm saying is, you were cautious enough to take your food along with you to your room, and you weren't that careful to lock it up?""What the hell are you insinuating right now?" I lashed out at him."That's enough Mr Q. What are you trying to imply?" Aiden asked calmly. I, on the other hand, was anything but calm. "Nothing sir. I'm just trying to understand something here.""Well, whatever it is that you are trying to understand, keep it to yourself because, I won't have you accuse me of taking the life of my unborn child and risking my own life at the same time."I glared furiously at him. "I never said that Miss, and I'm sorry if you felt that way. This is just a procedure. ""Whatever...Just so you know, I have never locked that door whenever I go in. Nor was I aware that some will enter inside to try to harm me
MIA'S POVThere was silence immediately Mr Q asked that question. We all turned to look at one another in question. "That is absurd sir,why would I do such nonsense at the cost of ma'am Mia's and the baby's life? " Mr Timothy exclaimed in disbelief. "You tell me, that is the reason why I'm asking you. Could it be that you wanted your master to be suspicious of the chef and get her out of the way?" Mr Q continued. "With all due respect sir, you have no right to accuse me of such things." Mr Timothy said. I could see the anger written all over his face and it was also indicated in his voice. I swear, the investigator had a way of getting on people's nerves. However, after seeing the method in which he used in questioning Audrey, the female chef and now, Mr Timothy, I came to the realization that it was nothing personal and that he wasn't trying to make any accusations of any kind." I'm not accusing you Mr Timothy. I'm just asking you questions and those are two different things. W
AIDEN'S POVI understood Mia's fear perfectly well. I'm becoming a little worried about this investigation too. I know it just started, so he will need a little time to dig deeper than what he is doing right now. I did not want the ladies to worry so much about this investigation and that was the reason why I had to reassure them that everything will be perfectly fine.Mr Q finally came out from the control room and all the eager faces were directed at him with a mixed feeling of anticipation and disappointment."Well, did you find anything useful that could help you with this case?" Aiden asked. "Nothing yet sir. I'm very positive that I will get something from that control room. However, I will have to return back tomorrow to do that sir. I have to be on my way now." "Alright Mr Q. I will be expecting you tomorrow.""Thank you everyone for your cooperation today." Mr Q said and bidded us his goodbye. I called all my staff and still spoke to them again. Urging them to make this
