Connor's phone fell to the floor and the screen broke into pieces, the sound made Mirabel stop crying and stare at him. "Did he just hear right?" He asked rhetorically and dashed out of the compound before he could be stopped by anyone. Jack saw how Connor ran off and immediately knew that something was off. He quickly chased after him. Connor was not in the mood for conversation and so Jack followed him in another car.Once Connor had driven off, Mirabel began to laugh loudly, it was so easy to trick Connor into believing she could turn good overnight. She stood on her feet and dusted her body of dust before moving back inside the mansion.Connor drove straight to the hospital where Kayla was admitted. He didn't wait to be allowed inside but rushed straight to Kayla's ward, shouting her name.He dashed into the room and could see Stella struggling for them to let her go, probably to uncover the cloth that was used in covering Kayla's face. Connor ignored all the commotion and proce
Connor didn't want to think deeply about it, he believed that Carolina was safe though some part of him feared the possibility of her being in the custody of his unknown enemy. He groaned out in frustration, all these were making him go nuts.Meanwhile, after Connor and Jack had left the mansion, Mirabel felt like it was the right time to carry out her plans of moving Carolina away from the underground and out of the mansion in general. She sneaked into the hallway without being seen and walked straight to Liliana's room where she had locked Carolina in.She was beyond shocked to see that the padlock which she used in locking the door had been changed."What was going on? Had Carolina escaped or did someone find out what she had done?" Her body went cold with fear and her hair began to curl.It was no safer for her to hover around, she had to escape while she had the time. With that thought in mind, she slipped out of the mansion afraid of what Connor would do to her if he learns of
Luc was at first, horrified to find Carolina all alone in the dark basement, sprawled on the cold floor and in a critical condition at that. He was not pleased to behold her pale skin tone and sunken cheeks but he was still very happy to see that Carolina was still alive. He stared at her in pity, "How did she end up here in the first place?" He wondered. She had been starved for two days now, his heart melted for her.On the other hand, Carolina's mind was racing. She was trying her best to figure out what Luc was doing in the basement which she thought was haunted and had no escape route. She recalled there was a secret door that led to the exit, "Perhaps he has come in from there" She reasoned but was not still convinced as to how Luc was able to find his away around the basement.From every ramifications, she knew Connor and Luc were never in good terms and so the guards must hate him too. "How then did Luc come in freely without being apprehended by Connor's guards? Did he figh
Connor felt uncomfortable with the whole events that had been going on. No matter how much he thought about it, it was no more news to him that all that had happening to him was planned, a long time ago.He let his mind wander off to possibilities of the people who could be behind all this. His first suspect was Luc. Connor was aware of how much Luc hated him, he knew that Luc could go to any extent to see to his downfall and that made him believe that Luc could be the unknown blackmailer. There were lots of incidents to prove his allegation towards Luc but no matter how hard he thought of it, he couldn't find any tangible reason to blame Luc. He recalled that when he was engaged in a fight with Luc, Kayla was attacked. "How then is he the one behind it?" He wondered, "perhaps he now have lots of people working for him" Connor reasoned again his hands rubbing his jaw.There was every possibilities to point out Luc as the unknown blackmailer but who was he working with?.Connor was
Mirabel got to the door leading to Liliana's dark basement, she was glad to see that door was securely bolted just as she left it.She was elated that no one had bothered to check the basement nor found out about her mischief or so she thought.She slowly unbolted the door and peeped inside the basement. She couldn't see clearly because everywhere was dark and so she put on her flashlight.She flashed it all over the space in search of Carolina whom she believed was still locked in but was disappointed in not seeing her.Her skin began to creep and she was becoming afraid and alarmed at the same time. She cleaned her eyes to make sure she was seeing clearly and when she opened them, Carolina was still not there. She grabbed a fistful of her hair in frustration."Where in the world is that witch of a person? Where is that stupid girl hiding?" She asked rhetorically, through gritted teeth.She was starting to go crazy because she couldn't find Carolina anymore. She took out anything tha
Connor made to follow Jack out of the control room and out of the hospital in general but something caught his eye. From the monitor screen, he could see the doctors covering Kayla and wheeling her out of the ward.He ran back to them immediately and blocked them, "where are you taking her to?" He demanded angrily. He was trying his best not to yank the white cloth that covered his dead cousin away from her face."We need to carry out an autopsy test on her to see if she was injected with something apart from the removal of her life support machine and if the murderer touched her by mistake, His fingerprints can be checked and his identity determined" the doctor explained.Jack overhead everything because he was just behind Connor, he slowly took Connor's hand. "Let them do their job Alpha while we focus on bringing miss Carolina home" he persuaded Connor.Connor was reluctant to move out of the way but he still did move and paved way for the medics to take Kayla away. He kept stand
Connor stared at Roseanne for a long time trying to figure out what she was talking about, he was still trying to understand how Mirabel could blame Roseanne for the mysterious disappearance of his mate."Was Mirabel right? Does Roseanne have something to do with it as Mirabel claimed? Or is Mirabel hiding something?" He thought within himself.He turned to Roseanne, "Why should I believe you? I know Mirabel can be cruel but she's a changed person" Connor said and Roseanne shook her head."Forgive me Alpha if I am trespassing my boundaries, I think Miss Mirabel is not all as innocent as she claimed. No matter how hard I try not to see it, I believe that miss Mirabel has a hand in the mysterious story of My lady" Roseanne reportedConnor's ears twitched and he stared at Roseanne in suspicion, he took his hands to his face and tugged at his chin, "That's a huge allegation right there young lady, you are aware of the consequences if you're wrong. Still, I will investigate your story" Con
Carolina blinked countlessly at Luc's revelation, her body grew cold as she recollected that Connor had told her something about Luc some time ago.Luc is a bad guy, he is dangerous too. Connor had told her that Luc was the name of one man he had killed but didn't know how he was saved. It was all making sense to her now, it never occurred to her that Luc could be the same person Connor had told her about.Realization dawned on her and she swallowed sharply, Luc was the man Connor was talking about, no wonder he was so overprotective of her when it comes to Luc. This also explains their strong hatred toward each other. She was curious to know the story behind it but at the moment, her body was cold with fear.Carolina began to dress back on the bed, she didn't want to stay close to Luc because she was now afraid of him.On the other hand, Luc was happy that she had finally calmed down, he made to touch her hand but she fled like Luc's hand was suddenly made of fire. Luc was perplexed,
