"I got rid of it Mikel, I burnt all the frames and posters with her face on it, don't you think it's making your room messy?" Zoey asked with a shrug, while Mikel's lips dropped in shock
"What did you just say?" Mikel asked in shock, after a long silence"I said, I destroyed all the frames" Zoey repeated with an eyeroll. But Mikel attacked her as he placed his both hands on her neck and pressed her down, while Zoey choked uncontrollably. Zoey could see the angry look in his eyes, she has never seen him react so rashly about anything, she moved her hands to his hands and tried pulling his hands away, but his grip around her neck was just too tight. Zoey was gradually loosing breath, she never expected it would result to that, she thought she was actually going to die. fortunately, he let go of her while she gasped for breathe."You're fired!!" Mikel muttered coldly as he walked away, leaving zoey on the floor.************************6_years_Later.Mike"Caira?" Mikel muttered as he stared at her in astonishment. She also couldn't believe it as she walked to him in shock and placed her right hand on his chest, to confirm if he was real. And yes!, he felt so real to be a mere hallucination. He got hold of her hands as he watched her in shock, but she moved away from him quickly."Mikel" she muttered, still finding it hard to believe that he was real, but in he Swift move, he advanced towards her and pulled her into a tight hug while she struggled out of his arms."Caira, is this really you? You're alive!" Mikel said happily as he watched caira who was no longer the young teenage girl he knew six years ago, she was now a full grown beautiful and hot lady. Caira stood in silence for a long time before turning around. She attempted running out of the room, but Mikel was quick enough to hold her."Caira, it's me Mikel!!" Mikel said almost in a whisper as he held her arm."What are you doing in New York" she muttered
"Yes baby, I'm back" Noah said as he advanced towards her"How... how did you find me?" caira stuttered still in shock."C'mon sweetie, that doesn't matter, the good thing is that I'm back now, and I'm back for good" Noah said as he attempted holding her by the waist, but Mikel was quick a enough to stop him."Oh, so it was true all along, you left me for your celebrity boyfriend. It's such an honor to meet you Mikel Camford" Noah said to Mikel as he stretched forth his right hand for an hand shake, but Mikel turned him down as he only stared at him in disgust."Noah, get out of my house now" caira in anger."C'mon caira, I just arrived, wouldn't you offer me a seat" Noah said sarcastically."I said leave" caira yelled out in tears. Noah attempted saying something but Mikel interrupted rudely."She said leave" Mikel said to Noah."You too Mikel" caira muttered bitterly. While Mikel hesitated for a while before deeping his hand into his pocket
"Because I'm already engaged" caira said as she lifted up her left finger, flaunting her engagement ring. Caira expected to see Mikel in shock, but his reaction got her really surprised as he only smiled." What's funny" caira asked in confusion."Nothing, see you at work tomorrow" Mikel said with a smile."You're so weird" caira mumbled with an eye roll as she stepped out of his car."One more thing, please give this to my baby girl" Mikel said as he brought out a red teddy bear and a pink polythene bag"Thanks, but my baby isn't lacking teddies, she has more than enough'' caira said"Well, I'll hand it over to her myself" Mikel said and was about stepping out of the car but caira stopped him."No need, I'll do it myself" caira said as she collected the gifts from Mikel begrudgingly."Tell her it's a gift from daddy. Please send my regards to your mum" Mikel said to caira while she ignored him and ran into the house.Caira opened the doo
Caira regained her senses as she climbed down the table quickly, she felt embarrassed that his manager had to meet her and her boss in a compromising state, but at the same time, she felt glad that his manager interrupted. She almost got carried away, but good thing his manager arrived just in time."Want do you want" Mikel said jerking his manager out of her thoughts."Uhmm....I'm so sorry sir, I----wa--s on my way out" his manager stammered as she left immediately, slamming the door. Mikel sighed as soon as his manager left his office."I'm sorry, I got carried away" Mikel stated as he sanked his fingers into his thick hair."I can fire her if you feel she might make you uncomfortable" Mikel said with a shrug, making caira look at him in shock."Fire her?, Why would you do that" caira asked in a low tone"Well, since she caught us in....."I don't want you to fire her, it's not her fault, it's mine. I'm such an idiot who never learn from her mist
Caira fell on the couch while Mikel moved to her in curiosity."Amanda has been kidnapped" caira said in tears."How much did her abductor request for" Mikel asked concerned, he was ready to pay anything to ensure that his daughter was released, but caira never knew how she was to answer him. Noah didn't ask for money, he asked for something really impossible for her to do"Talk to me caira, how much does he want, I can pay him off right now" Mikel said as he placed his right hand on her chin but caira only stared at him in tears, not knowing what to tell him.Few_Hours_LaterCaira sat at Mikel's sitting room as she dialed Noah's number repeatedly, but it was switched off. it was obvious that he intentionally switched it off to avoid being tracked by the cops. After several attempts, She gave up as she threw her phone on the couch, sobbing while Mikel watched helplessly. He still couldn't understand why she had refused to speak to him. Few minutes later, she hea
"Are you okay?" Mikel asked when he discovered that she wasn't listening."Uhmm..sure, I'm fine. I'll go change my clothes now" Caira said as she hid the knife back and picked up the clothes on the bed, before leaving his roomAs soon as she got to her room, she picked up her phone and gave Noah a call."Hello, I killed him, how can I get my daughter back" Caira said."I don't believe you will kill him so soon,but I just hope you ain't lying to me" Noah said." Please don't hurt her, I really killed him" Caira said in a low tone." If I find out you're lying, I wouldn't be sending anymore warnings to you, but I'll be sending her head to you" Noah threatened while Caira shivered in fear."I'll kill him, please give me more time and let me speak with my daughter first" Caira pleaded."You can speak to her after the job is done" Noah muttered coldly."Noah why do you want to kill Mikel, he is innocent, you don't even know him." Caira muttere
Caira screamed out and tried making her way into the building, but the fire men got hold of her."Miss, you can't go in there, we already lost two men" one of the fire men said as he got hold of her."My baby is in there, let me go" caira yelled out as she tried pulling out of their arms, but their grip around her was just too tight, Mikel who saw what happened, walked to her immediately."What's the problem" Mikel asked"Amanda is in there" caira cried out, and without hesitation, Mikel ran into the burning building."Young Man, there is no one in there, everything is completely burnt down" one of the fire men said but Mikel turned deaf ears to his warnings.As soon as he got inside the burning building, the place was smoky and hot so he had to cover his face with his right hand. The entire building was gradually consuming by the fire, he wasn't sure if there would be any living soul left. He called out Amanda's name and searched every hooks and cranni
"What text are you talking about" Mikel asked in confusion"I called you that night when I was in labor, but you kept rejecting my calls, I assumed you were already asleep, so I decided to let you be, but few minutes later, i received a text from you. You said I and my bastard child could go to hell for all you care. At first, I thought it was a joke, so I foolishly waited on you, I lost a lot of blood during delivery and I needed some money for blood transfusion, I almost died Mikel, I went through a lot of complications alone!!!. If not for the senior nurse who paid for my bills and hosted me and my mum, I would probably have died because of you. After my delivery, I told the nurse everything, including my plans to go far away from you, she supported me, she felt really sorry for me, so she hosted us in her apartment for a week before helping us relocate to New York. She accepted to help in making up fake news about my death despite it was against the hopital policies. she sa
