Samuel stayed at the hospital, restless, as he waited for Doctor Pedro to give him the two reports he was desperate to get; Kingston’s state of health and Linda’s pregnancy result.

Doctor Pedro had really done him a whole world of good, and he had ensured that Linda would not know that such a test was conducted on her.

Doctor Pedro walked up to Samuel a few minutes later. “Samuel,” he called gently.

Samuel stood up. He was tired and tense, as he hadn’t slept a wink all through the night, even up until now, but his determination and resilience kept him energized.

“Kingston is awake now,” the doctor told him.

Samuel sighed in relief, grateful that all had gone well. “Were there any severe damages done to him?” Samuel asked with concern.

“His shoulder joint was badly injured by the bullet, and as a result, he would need ample time to recover, but as for his leg, he should get back on his feet a week or two,” the doctor explained.

Samuel rubbed his rough face with his palm and exhaled.

    “How is that possible?” Samuel asked Doctor Pedro.“This is confusing as well,” Doctor Pedro said, staring at the result in his hands.Samuel snatched the result and stared at it too, confusion marking his features. “Are you certain?” Samuel asked even though the result was glaring at him.“I double-checked it,” Doctor Pedro said with certainty.“When was the last time we took the last pregnancy test?” Samuel asked just to be sure that his mind wasn’t playing tricks on him. “More than three weeks ago,” Doctor Pedro answered.“I don’t understand, Doctor. How is it possible for a woman’s pregnancy result to come out positive twice, and at different intervals,” Samuel asked.There was confusion in the air. Something felt off.“Something is wrong. One of the results is wrong,” Doctor Pedro said. “That is the only explanation for this mix up,” he added.“Then which of them is wrong?” Samuel asked, exasperated. He was beginning to have a headache as a result of the test. If it had come ou

    “How do you mean by your nurse?” Samuel Fury asked. “I thought you vowed to me that you took the tests yourself,” Samuel confronted Doctor Pedro. The doctor was not making sense to Samuel.“I conducted the test myself, but before the test came out, I had an emergency, and I let her continue with it and deliver the result to you and Linda’s family,” Doctor Pedro said.“Are you…what are you saying?” Samuel asked him.“There is something amiss about the results, and from what I am seeing, the last result was the wrong one, because I personally saw this one through till the end,” Doctor Pedro said.“So that means Linda hasn’t been pregnant all this time until now?” Samuel asked, finally connecting the dots.“No, it hasn’t, and I am really shocked at this, because I don’t know why she would alter the test result,” Doctor Pedro was confused.“So Linda Luscious hasn’t been pregnant all this while? Does this mean that she wasn’t the one that night? Have my instincts been right all along? Is t

    Linda had been resting since she got back from the hospital. She felt weird and strange, and even her parents confirmed it, but she could not read the meaning of the shocked look on their faces.Then she had slept for long hours, and rested after she woke up, which was strange, because that was so unlike Linda.Her phone rang, disrupting her rest. Linda knew that it could not be any good. For years now, Linda had not received any call that was pleasant to the ears. It had always been from one thing to another, even though she had managed to wiggle her way out of all of them every single time.The nurse from Samuel’s hospital was calling.“What could she want?” Linda grumbled.She had wrapped up every single business she had with the girl; it was just a one-time thing anyway, so why was she calling Linda now? The last thing that Linda wanted to deal with was a blackmailing person, because Linda could not see another reason why she could be calling her weeks after the successful deal th

    Ciara was awakened by the ringing of her phone. She had plugged it to the car to boost up the battery, and she did not even know that the phone had come up on its own.Ciara grabbed the phone sleepily to check who was calling, and the moment she saw that it was Samuel Fury, she jerked awake, all forms of drowsiness disappearing from her eyes.“Why is he calling me?” Ciara asked herself as she watched the phone ring. Ciara cleaned her eyes severally with her palm just to be sure her eyes were not playing mighty tricks on her. Then she looked around her; she was still parked in the woods where she had parked before dozing off.Ciara was still wondering why he was calling her when the call ended and went straight to voice note. She played the voice note, but Samuel did not say a word. Ciara remembered that she was on a call with Quinton who had been about to tell her about Samuel’s findings on her when her phone went off. So immediately the call went off, Ciara quickly dialed Quinton’s

    “Come home?” Ciara repeated.Samuel gritted his teeth in annoyance. His heart was still broken from Ciara’s remark about his mother, but his annoyance was having to play nice and cool just to trap Ciara into coming out of her hiding.“Yes, come home,” Samuel said. He knew Ciara was not a fool, at least, she had proven that to him now. Then it dawned on Samuel; how did Ciara know that his mother was dead?Ciara had been out on her running escapade to the Luscious residence when his mother died, so how did she know? Samuel was too hurt, angered and heartbroken to even realize that Ciara’s statement meant that she was well aware that his mother was dead.Oddly enough, he had thought to use his mother to lure her back, but now, it was obvious that that was a dead end. Samuel was even grateful that he did not even begin by mentioning it, because he would have come off as a fool to Ciara.“Why would you want me to come home?” He heard Ciara ask.Samuel was disgusted at Ciara’s temerity. She

    Samuel waited for Quinton to finish up what she claimed to be doing in the kitchen so that she could answer to his call.Meanwhile, Samuel called Doctor Pedro on the phone, and he picked up almost immediately.“Less busy?” Samuel asked as soon as the call connected. He was surprised that on a normal random day, Doctor Pedro was picking his call on the first ring.“No, but I am your doctor, and you might need my help urgently,” Doctor Pedro said, reminding Samuel that Doctor Pedro was on his personal payroll just so that he could be at his beck and call. “I have to attend to a patient in less than fifteen minutes, so you might have to be quick with this call,” Doctor Pedro added.“Of course, I don’t intend to keep you anyway,” Samuel said.“Have you been taking your medications and resting as I instructed?” Doctor Pedro asked.“Absolutely,” Samuel lied. The medications would make him drowsy and lazy, and those were the last things Samuel needed to be feeling at a time like this. “But t

    Seeing Linda seated majestically at the dining table made Quinton almost fumble and trip. The moment she saw Linda, she recognized her instantly, and from the look and expression on Linda’s face as well, she also recognized Quinton.And in all, Samuel noticed what was going on between his housekeeper and Linda; why wouldn’t he? Samuel was more sensitive than ever before, because it was only that way that he could know what was going on.Samuel looked at Quinton. He was displeased, but then again, his curiosity was piqued. “Quinton, what is it? Do you know my guest?” Samuel asked, because the last time he checked, Linda had never stepped foot in the main house.“Er…” Quinton opened her mouth to speak truthfully, but Linda was also smart enough to know that Quinton would not lie to her boss.And if Quinton told Samuel the truth, she would have to answer questions from Samuel, and it would definitely not end well, so Linda interrupted immediately by clearing her throat.“Um, please, I wo

    “Excuse you?” Samuel Fury asked the cop.“You are to come with us for questioning right away,” he said and brought out a warrant. “This is from the state head,” he added.Quinton came out when she heard the voice of the cops, but she only stood by the door, watching and listening in fear. “Samuel, what is going on?” Linda asked, worried and confused.“I don’t know yet,” Samuel answered absentmindedly, because he was not even paying attention to anyone.Anyone at all would have asked that question and Samuel would have given the same answer regardless. Instead, Samuel was thinking about something else completely. He was stunned, no doubt, because this would be the first time in his entire existence that he was being arrested. It had never happened to Samuel before.But yet again, Ciara Summers had managed to drag him into her life of criminality.“This is not right!” Linda barked, facing the cops. She wanted to stand up for Samuel; this could be a chance to win Samuel over. “Samuel Fu

    It had been hours, and it was getting dark, Samuel was yet to return. Ciara became increasingly worried.She had eaten as many times as she had gotten hungry for, and did everything else, like launder her clothes, and hid in her room while she got it dried, but still, no sign of Samuel. “Where could he be?” Was the question that Ciara asked herself all day.Then she was beginning to regret falling asleep, but she could not have controlled it, even if she wanted to. As the pregnancy progressed, Ciara noticed that she had become easily hungry, tired, and sleepy now, and this really scared her, because it also meant that she might not be able to achieve most of what she wanted to achieve.Ciara was yet to visit the hospital and register for antenatal health care, and that was another problem that plagued her mind.It would be difficult to achieve, especially now that she was hiding out in Samuel’s penthouse, and was being sought by the cops.Ciara’s phone rang, jolting her out of her t

    "That’s a joke, right?” Samuel asked Jess.“You know I only tease on the phone, and not physically,” Jess answered.She was right, and Samuel knew this. He was just overwhelmed by shock to believe what Jess said. Samuel turned and looked at where he parked his car, and everywhere seemed peaceful and clear. Jess’s place was very open, so it would have been easy to spot anything amiss.“You don’t think your trailer would still be right there waiting for you to see him or her, right?” Jess asked, shaking her head when she noticed that Samuel was looking around, searching for his trailer.“Now I know that you are lying, because you can’t even tell if it was a male or female,” Samuel said, wanting to believe his own words so that he would feel relieved.“It is a black Mercedes with tinted glasses,” Jess said, indicating why she couldn’t catch the identity of the person. “And unfortunately, I didn’t get the plate number,” Jess added.“Are you being serious, Jess?” Samuel said, confused and

    Samuel got into his car and zoomed off, headed straight to the penthouse. He knew that Ciara might be worried about where he went, and also, he needed to tell Ciara about the recent development, and they did need to have a long discussion about what to do next. One thing that Samuel was grateful for was keeping his penthouse completely private, and even so, no one would ever be able to get in except he gave them the code.His phone rang, and when he looked at his screen, it was Jess that was calling him.“What have you found?” Samuel said the moment the call connected.“Slow down, mate!” Jess said, laughing. “Days ago, you weren’t so eager, so what changed?” Jess asked lightly.“Not everything is a joke, Jess,” Samuel said. There were a lot of things running through his mind, and the more he had knowledge of what was going on, the faster he could fix everything. “Don’t bite my head off,” Jess warned. “I am not one of your puppets, Fury, and you know I am not afraid of you,” Jess sa

    Samuel arrived at the police station in his own car, following the cops. He was boiling with anger, but his anger was to Colt, and not the cops, because they were simply doing what they were asked to do.“What is the meaning of this?” Samuel asked the moment he got into the office he was invited into before. The head cop signaled to Samuel to sit down, and although Samuel sat, he was still upset. This was the second time in a couple of days that he was being invited to the hospital, and he was no longer finding it a joke.“Mr. Fury, we have a lot against you,” he told Samuel.“How do you mean?” Samuel asked, not bothering to mask his anger. “I was here the last time, and you asked me to go, so what is this about?” Samuel demanded gruffly.“Our interrogation the last time was inconclusive, and we informed you about this, so inviting you back here shouldn’t be strange, or even rile you up,” the head cop said, saying the last words with caution.“You do know who I am, right?” Samuel thr

    Ciara waited for Samuel to return, but he seemed that was not happening any time soon. She had woken up much later after a disturbing dream, and had found the penthouse very empty. For the first time, Ciara found herself lonely in Samuel’s absence. Maybe it was because of the moment they shared together before she fell asleep, but she could not exactly tell.Then there was the deal with Rudge. Although he was yet to call her back, Ciara still did not want to take chances with him. This was her only opportunity to know about what happened, and contrary to Samuel’s belief, Ciara was certain that he truly had something to tell her. If there was anyone aside from the Luscious family who knew exactly why she went to prison, it would be an employee of theirs, especially the one that worked closely with Linda.All the years living with and knowing Linda Luscious, Ciara knew that she was full of shady and dirty things. There were always skeletons in her cupboard. So now that Rudge had called

    So you two created a gang behind my back,” Samuel questioned Kingston after Quinton had left.He intentionally stayed in the study while Quinton sorted out her things and left. Samuel would not go back on his words; he had already fired her, and that was it. Right now, he was even angry with everyone. So while he was struggling to put things in place and make things work out for him, his own employee had been sabotaging every move by reporting to Ciara. Now he understood why he was always seeing her staring at him weirdly; she had been eavesdropping on him every minute and reporting back to Ciara, which was why she had been able to stay two steps ahead.Now he felt like a horrible fool.“What is it with Ciara that everyone just wants to protect her?” Samuel asked himself in frustration. From his mother to his own employee, who was even trying to recruit his driver into the league. For the life of him, Samuel could not understand the hold that Ciara Summers had on everyone else. His

    Linda had locked herself up in the room ever since the scandal. She could not even bring herself to go anywhere as close as downstairs, because she did not even want to deal with curious stares from the employees. Not only had she been skipping meals, she had also been avoiding her parents, especially her mother, because she could not deal with any firm of judgments right now.In truth, the Luscious mansion had been somewhat gravely quiet ever since. Linda was a nervous wreck as she called Hayes. She had been calling him almost every ten minutes, but she could not bring herself to stop.“Anything else?” Linda asked the moment the call connected.“No, Linda. He has been in the main house for hours now. Maybe he has called it a day, and I think I should too,” Hayes said, sounding tired.“Don’t you dare move from there!” Linda barked. They had missed Samuel for days, unable to trail him, because he had gone to hide somewhere unknown, and Linda had quickly told Hayes where to find Samu

    Samuel got into the main house and flopped on the couch, extremely tired. From what he could see outside, all his domestic staff were in good shape and doing their jobs well, so Samuel closed his eyes and tried to take in as much rest as possible. He did not want to think much about anything for now; he just wanted to rest. If he could stay here for a couple of hours, and even take a nap in the process, he would be relieved, but shutting his brain off completely was not something he could do, considering all that was going on at the moment. He would need to take extra caution dealing with Colt henceforth, but Samuel could not tell if Kingston was now strong enough to get back to work. He knew he should have called Doctor Pedro to ask about Kingston’s improvement, but he had been swamped with things. Anyway, now that he was here, he would ask him personally. Samuel opened his eyes and looked around, and everywhere seemed quiet. Samuel was now used to catching Quinton standing by the

    Samuel drove home, his mind muddled up in thoughts. It was a card he played on Colt, and like a mirror, he saw right through Colt.More than ever before, and for the very first time, Samuel was certain that there was something amiss. Colt could not even answer the last question he asked him. Samuel thought of going to the penthouse, but he changed his mind last minute. He hadn’t been to the main house in days now, and since he was still in charge of the Fury house and wealth, he needed to go there and ensure that everything was okay.Changing directions now, his mind went back to Colt Luscious. Samuel knew what he hadn’t known for years now; he was also a victim of Colt and Ruby’s games, but he could not exactly put the points together. All along, he had been worrying so much about understanding what was going on in Ciara’s life and trying to piece together bits and pieces of the things he knew, and he had no idea that he might also need to piece them together. Now, Samuel was begin
