Chapter 45Derrick’s point of view For the past few days staying with Mia has made my life so miserable. I was in my office, I couldn't even think straight anymore, the constant headaches kept on coming back, and I had to seek medication. On my way back from the hospital, I decided to see my little friend, I feel comfortable and I feel like my worries have been drawn away, whenever I see her. I have been coming frequently to see her and we are now best buddies. As I reached the school, I sat at the reception where she normally waits for her driver to come pick her up. “Hey Ariana, what's up?” I waved at her and she ran up to me and hugged me. I lifted her and dropped her back to the ground which made her giggle. “So I hope you enjoyed your classes today?” I asked her and she nodded and brought out her book, showing me her beautiful drawings. “This is so pretty.” I praised her. “Ariana, is he your daddy?” Her friend walked up to her, pointing at me. She looked at me. “Yes he

Chapter 46Derrick’s point of view. The next day, on a Sunday I was seriously thinking of a way to tell Zora to testify in court. If only she would agree to do that, Mia would learn her lessons as to why not to harm anyone. Mia caused all this to happen and I won’t let her go till she gets punished, with the anger in me, if only I had seen Mia anywhere I would have beaten her with all the rage in me, I would have vented it up on her. When I was slowly calming down, I realized that I shouldn’t beat Mia, if I did that, the trial would be increased and they might also lock me behind bars for whatever I planned to do to Mia. But thank goodness I got calm even till now I haven't set my eyes on Mia. I decided to call Zora. “Hello, Derrick.” Her voice was cracked. Zora has cried enough. “Hey Zora, I know you might be so tired but can I come over to see you? There is something very important I need to talk to you about.” I spoke to her but she kept quiet for a while. “Do you want to

Chapter 47Zora’s point of viewIt's been three months since Derrick got divorced, we were kind of close now but he still doesn't know anything about Ana.I was in my office, going through a file when Sophia rushed into my office with the head of the financial unit “What's wrong?” I couldn't even tell what was wrong with Sophia. “The money, all the money in the company's account is gone.” She forced herself to speak up. “What!!” I think I misheard what she said, my body was trembling, and I rushed to my laptop to see it for myself. The three zeroes were bold, no single penny was left there in the account. I sat on my chair forcefully. “How did this happen?” I asked Sophia, hoping whatever I was seeing was not true and I was just dreaming. I should wake up from this silly dream, I pinched myself so hard. “Mrs Zora, there is no description, everything there is just blank.” Mr Wellman, the head of the financial unit said. Who could have done this to me, where do I even? Start fro

Chapter 48Zora’s point of view I finished with the work I was doing and headed to the coffee store where I’d meet Derrick. He hadn't arrived yet so I sat and waited for him. So many people were in the store today. Twenty minutes before he arrived, he walked to where I sat. I gulped as we were closer. I just hope this walks out though. I wasn’t so comfortable as there were lots of people here, I don't know if I'd be free to tell him what I want to say. “Can we like to go somewhere else?” He asked, I guess he wasn’t comfortable, and I think they were celebrating something there today which must be the reason for the crowd. We both walked outside. “Is it okay if I come over to your house, so we can talk?” I don’t know if that sounded awkward. “My house?” He looked surprised. “Of course, we can go.” He finally answered.“Alright you’ll head out and I’ll join you.” I smiled and nodded once and walked into my car and went into his. He drove away and I followed behind. We got to h

Chapter 49Derrick’s point of view. I got Zora’s call and she wanted to see me, there was something she wanted to discuss with me. So we decided to meet at the normal coffee shop. She went there before me and the place was so crowded. So I asked her if we could go somewhere else and she agreed. We went out of the coffee store. “Is it okay if I come over to your house so we can talk?” She asked and I was so surprised. I never thought Zora would want to come back to that house ever again. “My house?” I asked her again to be sure and she nodded saying yes. We finally got to the house. The moment Zora stepped into my house, I was sure she would remember everything that happened in the last nine years. The memories would surely flashback in. I asked her if she wanted to come inside and to my great surprise she said yes. And I let in. I noticed the change in her face. I wasn't happy with the fact that everything turned out that way. “Looking at this place brought back so many

Chapter 50Zora’s point of view We hid somewhere so she wouldn’t see us. The moment I saw Mia walking into a building that looked like an estate, my eyes widened. “Derrick!” I whispered and tapped him to see. “That's Mia.” He whispered. We watched her walk into a particular house. It was already so late and we were also exhausted, but we were glad we finally knew her place. “We've finally caught her, let's head back home Zora, we will continue tomorrow.” Derrick looks tired already and I do too. “Alright, we will come back here and arrest her red-handed.” I was so happy when we caught her, at least our hard work didn't go in vain today. Let's rest till morning and seal it up. Derrick and I left the place and went home. Mia has done enough, it's time to take her down, she has caused a lot of pain in my life and Derrick’s too. I sat on the couch feeling so exhausted. “I'll go wash up quickly and come back to prepare dinner, I am starving.” I groaned and dragged myself up. I w

Chapter 51Zora’s point of view He left the kitchen and a few minutes later he came out with a tray of food, he placed it in front of me. Smiles round my face I watched him walk in my direction. “This looks so mouth-watering,” I said as he dropped the tray on the dining table. “I hope you enjoy it.” He smiled and sat opposite me. “Mmm.” I raised my eyebrows as I tasted the waffles he prepared and it was so nice!I turned and looked at his smiling face. “I didn’t know you’re good at this.” I took a bite of the bacon and. “No, for breakfast you’ll be handling it till we leave.” I joked and he laughed. “this is so good!” I complimented his cooking. “I am glad you like it.” He said as he also took a bite of the waffles. We were done with breakfast. Derrick was on a call with the cops and after the call, he sent the address of Mia’s house and planned on meeting there. We got prepared and left. The coups were there before us but the atmosphere they were pulling wasn't so good so we

Chapter 52Derrick’s point of viewWhen I discovered Mia was missing, I was so agitated, if only I had known this would happen, I would have called the cops immediately. I Instructed the cops to make sure every road leading out of this city is tied up with security. I'll make sure I catch Mia before I leave this place, only if she is still in this country. Zora and I left on our way home we decided to stop at the mall and coincidentally we came across Mr Noah and surprisingly Zora knows him as well. I was surprised to see him at the mall by himself, but the place we were at there weren't many people there. We greeted him and we talked for a while.“Mr Derrick you have a very hardworking wife. Zora will give you peace.” Mr Noah said and laughed. I honestly really wished she was my wife again, she is indeed hard working and will surely give me peace. I couldn't disagree with him, I wouldn't because I'll try to win her back. He asked for our presence at the office and that he woul

Chapter 99Derrick’s point of view I woke up in a hospital, and I found a nurse close to me. “Mr Derrick, you are finally awake, um, sit back I'll go call the doctor, okay?” She said and hurriedly ran out of the room. I felt a sting pain in my back, for how long have I been in bed? With the reaction on her face, it probably might have been a long time. All I remember was how I got shot. After a few minutes, the doctor walked in, with so much surprise on his face. “Finally, Mr Derrick, you're awake.” He smiled and did a little check-up on me. “Doctor for how long have I been unconscious?” I asked him. “For over a week and a few days.” He replied, I was so shocked, suddenly I remembered how I got shot. “Ana!” I held the Doctor’s hand immediately as I remembered I was with her. “They haven't come yet, she will probably come later.” He said and I slowly let go of his hand. That means she is safe. How did I get here, who helped us out of there?“Doctor, is there anyone around a

Chapter 98Zora’s point of view “What hospital?” My voice sounded so faint. “Let’s go there now,” Stacy said and we got into the car and she drove away. Finally, we got to the hospital and rushed in and I was taken to the room Ana was in. “Mummy.” She stood up from her bed and rushed to me and I squatted and hugged her so tightly, kissing her forehead passionately. “My Ana, my baby.” Tears left my eyes as she was brought back to me safely. “How are you, my child? Were you hurt anywhere?” I asked her, looking all over her body. “I’m fine, Mum, Daddy made sure of that, but I’m scared, is Daddy still alive, he was shot by those evil men.” She cried out and I cleaned the tears from her eyes. “Daddy, will be alright, nothing will happen to him, okay?” I tried to encourage her but I also was scared of losing him. I met with Lee and Collin. “Zora, how have you been? I hope Austin didn't hurt you?” Lee asked and shook my head.“He didn't,” I said, but it felt like it was so hard for

Chapter 97Zora’s point of view “Drive safely, sweetie.” He said after letting me go outside his house, I managed to walk into my car, like that way the first day I learned how to walk. When I finally got in, I cried so badly, there was no hope, no one to run to, how could I get out of the mess, I'd have to do what he said or else my family would be ruined. I cried till I couldn't cry more and I finally drove out heading to my house. I got home and found Stacy and Sophia in the living room, immediately Stacy saw me she rushed to me and hugged me tightly. “I know it's hard for you right now but you need to be strong.” She spoke as she finally let go of me and cleaned my eyes. “Mrs Zora.” Sophia looked so worried and she hugged me too and finally let go. They took me to the nearest couch and I sat.“I'm glad you are back home safely, I hope he didn't do anything to you?” Sophia asked me. “Austin has really brought distress to my life, now he insists on getting married to him tomo

Chapter 96Zora’s point of view “What do you mean Ana has been kidnapped?” I couldn't feel my legs anymore after hearing that, immediately I fell to the ground as she explained to me what happened. “Austin! Austin has done enough!” I shouted and most of my staff, including the people in the conference hall all came out. “Mrs Zora, what's wrong? What happened?” Sophia rushed to me while I kept on crying. “My daughter, Austin, has taken my daughter away from me.” I shouldn't sit back and cry, I suddenly cleaned my eyes, and Sophia exclaimed as she heard me say that. “Sophia, we aren't having the meeting anymore.” I stood up from the ground and left for my office to take a few things before leaving. Austin can’t just plug off my eyes and go scot-free. Getting close to my office I noticed Sophia was behind me saying a few things which I wasn't paying attention to. “Mrs. Zora, we need to Inform, Derrick about this.” Sophia suddenly suggested I look up to her. “It's not everything

Chapter 95Derrick’s point of view Immediately I woke up from that terrible dream. I hope Ana is safe, quickly I took my phone and called Zora and hearing from the way she spoke there was nothing wrong but still I asked her about Ana and I found out that she was on her way to pick her up. I begged her to drive safely and revealed to her the dream I just had and immediately she freaked out. “Zora, listen, you need to drive safely, Ana will be right there waiting for you to come to pick her up,” I said to her and she managed to calm herself down. “Alright, I’ll talk to you later,” I said and we hung up, that was the mistake I made, I shouldn’t have told her about the dream, I just hoped she drove safely. I told Stacy and Collin about the dream I had about Ana. “Don't you think Austin is planning on doing it?” Stacy said and Collin agreed with her. “I don't think so, what would be his gain if does that? After all, Zora wants to play along by accepting to marry him so he wouldn'

Chapter 94Zora’s point of view “What do you mean by that?” I asked him as he spoke so rudely and I noticed how he paused for a while. “Zora, do not make me do something silly, you can’t ruin my plans now, you will have to obey me, we are having this wedding on the day we have both planned it.” His voice was so cold and fierce. “Are you forcing me to do what I don't want, that's never happening, Austin…” He abruptly hung up the call when I was still talking. What kind of man is this? He was never like this, what made him change? He would not do anything stupid he can not try it. I dropped down my phone and continued with my work. During lunchtime I left the office and went over to where Mia was kept, although I told Derrick I'd be going there, he wanted to come with me but I declined, I wanted to face her alone. Getting there I was told she had a visitor already, I was quite surprised, so I waited. After a while, I saw Austin heading out. “Austin?” So he was the visitor the

Chapter 93Zora’s point of view “Zora, listen, you need to drive safely, Ana will be right there waiting for you to come pick her up.” He encouraged me and I took it in and calmed myself down. “Are you close to her school already?” He asked me. “Yes I am, I'll call you later, okay?” I said, I just wanted to think straight. “Yes, when you pick her up and get home let me know, okay?” He spoke, he also sounded worried but he didn't want it to be so obvious. “Alright, I will,” I said and he disconnected. I gulped down and tried my best to concentrate on driving, finally I got to her school. “Where is Ana?” I met her teacher and she directed me to where they were kept. From afar I saw Ana talking and laughing with her friends and my mind was finally calm, I could finally breathe properly through my nostrils. “Ana?” I called her and she left them and ran up to me. “Mummy, you came to take me home, it's been a while since you did that, I'm so happy seeing you here.” She laughed and I

Chapter 92Zora’s point of view Derrick left after having dinner with Ana and me. I noticed how Ana looked so happy around him, more than Austin and I'm so glad about it. “Mummy I'd be the happiest if Daddy comes to stay with us, we will finally be complete,” Ana said as Derrick drove out, her attention was still built on Derrick’s car as she spoke with so much plaster of smile on her face. “He can't stay with us, Ana.” I laughed and shook my head as we walked in. “Why can’t he?” Ana asked with a frown face. “You'll know soon, okay.” I kissed her cheek as we sat on the couch. Surprisingly she didn't pester me much about the question, after a while she slept off and I took her to her room and laid her properly on the bed. The next day I got a call from Austin. “Hey babe, good morning.” He sounded calm and immediately I wondered what he wanted to say. Whenever he sounds that way, it’s either he has a favor to ask or something else that would be of benefit to him. “Hey, is every

Chapter 91Zora’s point of view “Zora, what are you saying? I love you both so much and I want to be a good husband to you and a good father to Ana.” He spoke like he meant whatever he said, which I know is totally a lie. “It's fine, I feel better hearing that.” I lied and formed a smile and he hugged me. “I want the best for us Zora, please I want you to stay away from Derrick, I don't want him to harm you or Ana, try to avoid him in any way you can, okay?” He spoke slowly with a feathery voice and he rubbed my hair slowly as he spoke. I pulled out of the hug and just nodded. “You also need to be careful, your life might also be in danger,” I said to him and he furrowed. “Mine isn't so important, you and Ana’s life is, so try to watch out, if anything happens don't forget to call me.” He spoke and I nodded once. “And about Ana, I asked Mary about her and she told me Ana is sleeping, it seems like she has been detouring away from me these past few days.” He uttered, looking a l
