Chapter 72Derrick's point of view The next day I left for work, immediately I got to work, and my staff members welcomed me back as I went in. I went over to Lee’s office. I'd like to go to my office last. “Mr Derrick, welcome back man.” Lee and I shook hands and finally sat. We talked about a few things that were work-related, and I also told him about the things Zora and I worked on during our stay there. “Okay let's leave that aside for now, so what about Zora, so any news about you both?” Lee is always eager to hear. “Nothing is going on between us, even when you thought we were getting close, that closeness is over,” I revealed to him and he frowned. “What are you talking about?” He asked me and I laughed softly. “I have a child with Zora, she has been hiding her away from me for all these years.” He looked at me with so much surprise on his face as I spoke up to him.“What are you saying, Derrick?” He looked extremely shocked. Immediately my mind flashed back to when sh

Chapter 73Zora’s point of view. Immediately he said that I gasped, how did he know? Where did he find out? Who told Derrick Ariana is my daughter? “I need an answer from you Zora!” He shouted, calling me back to reality. “Why have you been keeping my daughter away from me all these years?!” He added he looked so angry.He spoke like I was the one who deliberately left when he wanted me to leave for a long time. I reminded him of how he rejected Ariana, right from when she was unborn and his ranting voice was calm. I advised him never to come close to Ariana and even if she doesn’t know him yet, I told him how she hates him and never wants to see him. I walked away, I should take a cab back home, surprisingly he came after me and took me home. I went to my room immediately after we got home. How did he find out about this? I have always kept this a secret from him, how did it just get so open to him, who must have told him that?Is it Sophia? That isn’t possible. I can’t even

Chapter 74Zora’s point of view As she said that I was quite shocked, I was expecting to hear that. I guess a better heart than I do. No matter how Derrick has changed I still don't want to give him another chance. I felt really bad, and I spoke so rudely to him the other day, maybe I should just let me see Ariana, even if Derrick and I don't come back as a couple, I should just give him a chance to have a relationship with his daughter, yes that's what I will do. Two days later on a Sunday evening, I got a call from Derrick. I picked up and we both greeted ourselves. “Uhm, Zora I apologize for the way I spoke to you the other day, I know I sounded harsh, I'm sorry.” His voice was calm and he sounded sincere so I accepted his apology. “I’d like to see you, if you'd be free now I'd be glad.” He continued. Is it still about Ariana?I asked him if there was any problem. “Everything is fine… so can u see you this evening?” He asked again. “Alright.” I just have to agree and I wi

Chapter 75Derrick’s point of view Ever since I told Ana that I was her real father, I have been so troubled by the way she acted. It feels like she hates me now, even worse than the way Zora hates me. “You should talk to Zora about it,” Lee advised but I disagreed immediately. “Zora doesn't even know that I have known her daughter for a while now, and if she finds out, she might not let me see her,” I explained to him. I was so restless, that I couldn't concentrate on whatever I was doing. I can't imagine being hated by my child, that's the last thing I'll ever want in my life. And now this is happening? Ana doesn't even want to speak to me. “I suggest you talk to Zora, even if you don't tell her directly about knowing her daughter, now she knows that you know about Ana, you can tell her how badly you want Ana and want to know her,” Lee suggested, and I was buying the idea gradually. “Yes, I think you’re right on this one, I will go with that because I appreciate any to see

Chapter 76Zora’s point of view After Derrick said that to me I felt so weak, how could that be possible? I never knew all this while Derrick and Ana knew themselves. I wanted to be so angry that Derrick didn’t tell me he knew Ana all this while, just only for me to find out that he didn’t know Ana was his daughter. The anger vanished, I felt really bad for Derrick too and I assured him that I’d talk to Ana. He left after a while. I went back to Ana's room to spend some time with her. “Hey, baby girl,” I said as I walked in and she turned and looked at her. “Mummy.” She replied and I sat on her bed. “The way you acted earlier wasn't fair, you know that, right?” I said as she sat upright and rested her back on the headboard. “Was it that bad?” She asked and I nodded. “But he never told me he was my daddy and all this while we talked about it and I also told him how my friends treat me because I told them I don’t have a dad.” She explained and I understood the point she was he

Chapter 77Derrick’s point of view“Where is Zora, you moron!” I held his collar so tight and punched him so hard on his face. “What are you talking about? What's wrong with Zora?” He acted all Innocent trying to act so concerned. “Don’t take me as a fool.” I held him back. “I heard everything you said at the bar the other night… Speak, where is Zora!” My voice was so stern. “I don’t know what you are talking about, Dwerick you need to calm down and tell me what's wrong.” He still acted so strange, Austin that I know will always retaliate after that first hit. I let go of him gradually, knowing fully well the kind of game he wants to play. “Do you not know that Zora has been kidnapped,” I said and he acted so surprised and I furrowed. I am one hundred percent sure this is all pretense. “Are you serious, when? How did it happen? I need to go over to Zora’s house now, how come I never knew of this.” He took his jacket and was about to leave when I held him back. “If you are tryi

Chapter 78Derrick’s point of view “What are you talking about?” I shouted at him looking so confused. “I’ll make sure you spend your remaining miserable life in prison.” The way he talks makes me feel so strange and confused. The doctor walked out of the room and my attention left Austin and I quickly asked how Zora was.Instantly Austin quickly walked to the doctor. “She is getting better now, you should be her husband, right?” He pointed at me and Austin frowned. “Doctor you probably have an eye issue or some kind of memory loss.” Austin sounded rude. “I am her husband.” He said and walked away, heading to where Zora was kept. The doctor shook his head and was about to walk away and I stopped him. “Doctor, I'm sorry for the way he spoke to you.” I apologized on the moron's behalf. “It's okay.” He smiled a little. “So how is she doing now? I hope there is nothing wrong with her?” I asked him. “She is alright, she wasn't hydrated that was what caused her to lose consciousnes

Chapter 79Zora’s point of view The moment I was conscious, I saw myself in a dark room. I tried to stand up but I was tied down to a chair. What’s this? What’s the meaning of this? Where am I? I tried too hard to lose myself but to no avail. I screamed for help but no one was out there, the whole place was closed up, and I was so scared. How did I get here? I tried so hard to lose myself. Someone finally walked in but I couldn't see the face properly. “Don’t you know you are making a lot of noise?” It was a male voice. “I'm sorry, but what am I doing here?” I asked with a shaky voice. “Someone who you think loves you brought you here,” He answered immediately and laughed. I furrowed my brows and suddenly recalled when Derrick told me to stay careful from Austin. Why would Austin bring me here, in this kind of state? I don't think he will ever do this to me. “Who? Who are you talking about?” I asked and he suddenly scowled at me. “All I am here to do is feed you when you a

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
