Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I walk down the lobby to the nearest cafe restaurant near hotel Italia where I will be meeting Xavier. Though, I've been expecting him to arrive for two weeks now but he just arrived yesterday but I can never underestimate his jobs, always clean and cut just exactly what I need right now.
I walked into the cafe house, and ordered a cup of coffee while I waited for Xavier. He stroll down the street and enter the cafe house discreetly as professionally as he could be.
Though I don't see any use with the need for discreet since no one knew us here.
"Xavier" I said as a form of greeting, when he sat down in front of me. Xavier and I were childhood friends until he joined the army from there he turned rogue. We've been in contact ever since my sister's murder

"Austin. Same old Austin" He reply smiling briefly before getting professional "The bomb has been placed into the plane and one of my men is there with the remote to ignite it when the time reach

How?. “To think that I allow that animal to touch me, I feel like killing him with my bare hands” I clenched my fists annoyed as I sat down in the sitting room at my parents'.I'm so happy right now that I followed my instincts to come here, I wouldn't know what I will be doing at home now“You will probably be crying at home right now,” my subconscious said, looking up what she was doing. I glared at her, must she state the obvious. She rolled her eyes at me and went back to whatever she was doing.I raise my head up as I turn to force back the tears that threatened to fall, I wouldn't want mom to be worried, which she seems to do those days.Looking around the sitting room, I was glad to see that my parents have fully unpacked even though I didn't help them o

I was agitated as I waited patiently for Nina to come back home. It's quite late,where could she be______?"Is this how she comes back late?" I ask her little brother who doesn't seem so little after he has attacked me with a bat for breaking his sister's heart."That's none of your business" He replied as he went back to his chair just as a woman walked out carrying a cup of coffee for me. I collected it, smiling appreciatively at her as my hand clenched the newspaper tightly. I couldn't believe Nina could stoop so low to get back at me. I'm so freaking annoyed with her.I sip my coffee as I use that opportunity to look around. I was surprised to see a picture of her and her dad when she was still a baby. I smile at her beautiful eyes and kissable lips."What are you doing, Michael, you are supposed to be annoyed with her not thinking about her eyes and lips, you dump skull" I scolded myself as I schooled my face back to blank immediately I heard the doo

As soon as Michael walked out of the door, I let myself cry as I sobbed uncontrollably, the only man I'd ever loved. I opened the door and ran after him but he has already left, his car was not in the driveway either”“God! Why me?. Why does this have to happen to me” I sobbed into my hands as I kneel down on the front porch.My subconscious was getting teary too, as she wipe her face with her handkerchief“ Nina, don't cry, it's for the best" she said trying to console me as I sobbed.I stood up from the porch and walked into the house, closing the door gently. Turning back I was surprised to see Shane in the sitting room, watching me intently.“What are you doing here?" I ask him as I wipe my eyes, rid of the tears while I turn to walk into the dining room.“To eat?" He replied shrugging as he sat down opposite me and took his spoon as he began to eat.After talking a spoonful of food into my mouth,

I stood up from the bed where I had been lazing all morning since Michael had left for work. Looking around, I was as ecstatic as I was, the first night I slept over at Michael's, even though while we dated I've never been to his villa but this pregnancy has brought me better than I could ever imagine.I stroll out of the room which was adjacent to Michael's, I still don't understand why he doesn't want me in his room. I'm going to be his wife for crying out loud. I tried to open the door, but as usual it was locked.Glaring, I walked away from the room and descended the stairs as I went into the kitchen for my morning routine which consisted of eating breakfast and watching television. Being the fiance of a business tycoon, I don't have to work, which I'm glad of.“Good morning, Miss Melton," Emma greeted me, she was bent over the cupboard searching for my favorite tea cup.“What's so good about this morning, Emma?

It's Nina, she______“ I cut her off, as I cursed loudly into the phone impatiently “ How many times do I have to tell you that there's nothing going on between Nina and me. That picture you saw in the newspaper was Photoshopped“ I lied to her, after that night, Deborah has been questioning me about Nina and I, and I have to deny it every time. I'm getting tired of her emotional blackmail.I scribbled something on the files in front of me, I have a 1:00pm meeting with the board concerning the launching of the new“ Thomson's hospital” which has been built and now this.“It's not that Michael, Nina was involved in an accident and she's dead“ I froze as the pen hovered in my hand. Nina is dead? How come? No, it can't be true, I saw her two days ago and she was healthy. I laugh, Deborah has started again with her planks. I'm not in the mood for any of this.“ What did you say? Nina did what?" I stood up and paced to and

“I don't know son, I guess you have to find out by yourself ” Dad said shrugging, mom was a bit quieter now as she looked at me.“If mom didn't do it then why was she crying?” I asked dad as I turned to look at him with my hands folded across my chest.“ I didn't kill her Michael, please believe me” Mom pleaded with me as fresh tears fell from her eyes“ I was scared that you will blame me for her death because of what I say to you. I didn't do that ” She cried as I went to her and hugged her, My frantic beating heart calmed down, as some of the guilt washed over me.After spending hours apologizing to my parents we were now on our way to the hospital.

Both your parents and brother are all around you with your friends ” I schooled my expression into a sad face as I forced tears into my eyes.

“ Daniel ” Lillian's mother's called out to me. I stood up from my place beside the bed and went to meet her where she was seated in the resting room with Lillian's Dad.“ Yes Mom. You called me ” I answered looking at the both of them as I avoided their eyes. Anytime I see them, I can't help feeling guilty that I've failed them. That I couldn't protect their daughter.“ Daniel, why don't you go home to rest. I and Lilian' s father will watch after her till you arrive. Okay ” Lillian's Mom said as she stood up to pat me lightly on the shoulder.“ But, I want to be here with her always ” I protested bitterly looking at Lillian's father for help.“Yes.

I paced around my office in anticipation, ever since our last call with Lillian, we couldn't get in touch with her. She had refused to answer any of our calls and had sent it to her voicemail.“ Any luck with her yet?” I turned to ask Danny who was trying her phone again. I could see the worry etch his brows as sweat streamed down his face. I couldn't help being annoyed with myself that I had caused everything. I regretted ever bringing him and Lillian into this mess. Hell, I regretted ever risking my wife and children's life. If only I never met Deborah then none of this would have happened.“ Not yet. She just won't pick up even after leaving her a dozen messages.

I don't know what's going on with them. And who the fuck is Deborah? I so hate her” He screamed at me as he turned to watch me from the doorway trying to dab at his now teary eyes.I strolled to pull him close as I let him sobbed on my shoulder, ignoring him using the swear word. Any other day, I would have scolded him but today, I decided to let him be since he was hurting so badly.“ It's okay son, momma understands. I promise we'll find them soon but please you've got to be strong for them. You know Nora and Nadia wouldn't like to
