"Marcus is walking free. Marcus came for her," Aiden thought.

"Aiden, did you hear what I said?" Ruth said seeing Aiden was silent.

"I did. Let the police handle that," Aiden replied.

"She will come for you. So it would help if you were careful," Ruth said.

"I will be fine," Aiden stated.

Ruth stayed around for a while and left for work. Aiden dialled Dr Jerome's number and brought the phone to his ears.

"Hello Mr Scott," came Dr Jerome's voice.

"Hello Dr Jerome," Aiden responded and informed Dr Jerome about Ana.

Aiden went ahead and gave Dr Jerome details of what transpired the previous day. Once the call ended he called Mr Jayson and confirmed Amanda had escaped. Aiden knew he needed to move Ana. He pressed the bell for a medical attendant.

"How soon can I go home?" Aiden asked.

"If not for the wound opening, the possible discharge could have been tomorrow," the doctor said looking at his file.

"Make that happen and how is my wife now?" Aiden asked.

    "Ana, let's go home, I will explain?" Aiden said feeling it was time she knew she was pregnant, again. "Okay, Mr Scott, please don't do any heavy lifting and no pressure on the wound. It is still healing," the head doctor said and Aiden nodded walking Ana out of the hospital. Outside the hospital premises, Aiden was expecting to see Lewis, since Ruth had an important morning schedule meeting, Mr Scott would be at work and Mrs Scott had told him she was feeling a little sick probably because she was not getting enough rest, but outside was the entire family. "You think, we will let you do this all by yourself? We are family and family sticks together," Mr Scott said and walked towards Aiden. Aiden had his arms wrapped around Ana and didn't know how to take his hands off with his entire family staring at him. "Son, I meant it when I said we should start afresh as a family. I have forced my will on you in the past and only realized how selfish I was. Your wife is welcome to stay wi

    "You are an evil genius," Mrs Scott said and kissed her husband. "An evil genius with a costume," Mr Scott said with a smile and made love to his wife. The next day, Aiden got up early and after taking a shower dressed up for work. He was putting on his tie when Ana woke up. She got down from the bed and came to help Aiden with the tie. Aiden's eyes shifted to her finger and her ring was missing. "What happened to your ring?" Aiden asked. "Ms Thatcher took it," Ana replied. "I will get you a new one on my way home," Aiden said and planted a kiss on her lips. "I wish I could take you back to my place on the hills but considering what happened there and with Amanda on the loose, I feel it is best you stay here. I don't plan on staying here for long. We will move out soon," Aiden said and Ana nodded. "I will get you a new phone on my way back and we will go see Dr Jerome when I return. I will be back home early," Aiden said and Ana nodded. Ana fetched Aiden's jacket and helped him

    "Good, we continue tomorrow," Mr Scott said and climbed into bed. In the morning, Aiden took Ana to see Dr Jerome since he could not do so the previous day. On the way to the hospital, he noticed Ana was still not back to her old self. "Hey, are you alright?" Aiden asked and Ana turned to look at him. "Will this baby be alright?" Ana asked. "Yes. We will do everything medically possible. We will have this baby," Aiden assured her. "Aiden. Do you love me, or did you marry me to take responsibility?" Ana asked. "Ana, I married you because I love you and not for any other reason," Aiden replied. "Look, I don't know when and how it happened but that day when I saw you slipping away, I knew I didn't want you to go. I wanted you to be a part of me," he added. "Why did you marry Ms Thatcher?" Ana asked and Aiden frowned at her question. "Did something happen at home?" Aiden asked. "No, I just want to know. I am the third woman you have married," Ana pointed out. "Did anyone say anyt

    While all of this was happening in California, in Mexico City, Amanda had started a new life with Marcus as her husband but little did Marcus know, that karma would be visiting soon. "Now you got what you want. I need you to focus and do what I want you to do," the old man said and Marcus acknowledged. "Thank you, Grandfather. I would not disappoint you," Marcus said and left for his apartment. When he arrived, Amanda was waiting for him. She welcomed him with a hug and a kiss. "Now that is a woman who knows how to welcome her husband," Marcus said after parting away from the kiss. "You never mentioned you had this side of you," Amanda said looking at the luxury surrounding her. "Well, I tried to tell you but I couldn't. I came to California to do a simple job. Your father employed me as a driver for you because of my background as one from a security agency. "What do you do?" Amanda asked curiously. "My Grandfather is the mafia lord of this city," Marcus said. "Grandfathe

    "It is time to make him sign A&M Construction to me. Aiden, by the end of this week, you will have nothing to your name," Mr Scott said with a sinister smile. The day slowly went by and it was soon nightfall. Aiden returned home very exhausted. After greeting Mrs Scott, he went upstairs to his room. Ana was sitting on the bed when Aiden entered. Without saying anything to her, he dropped his bag on the table and removed his jacket which he hung at the back of the chair. He took off his shoes and left them in the middle of the room heading for the bathroom. Ana got up from the bed, picked up the shoe and placed it on the shoe rack. She picked up the jacket hung it on the hanger and placed Aiden's bag inside the bag holder. She sat on the bed and Aiden returned to the room in the bathrobe. He went to the wardrobe and picked up his sleepwear. He put on the trousers and left the shirt. "How was work today?" Ana finally spoke. "Fine," Aiden said and walked towards the table, picked up th

    Aiden pulled her into his arms lying on the bed behind her, unaware Ana was now in tears. They lay on bed in silence for a while and Ana decided to break the silence between them. "Aiden, something is going on in this house which doesn't look right. I don't know how to put it because they all seem like mere coincidence and mere conversation," Ana said. "But what I saw in your father's office today, confirms my suspicion. Please be careful," she added. "Ana, I know I have abandoned you and that is why you feel this way. By the end of this week, I would be done with most of my major work. I will take two days off and spend time with you," Aiden said still feeling his neglect is what is making Ana behave the way she is now. The morning soon came and Aiden left with Mr Scott to his office to have the rest of the money for the railway project processed and paid so they could finish up the work by the end of the month. Ruth left for the hotel and Mrs Scott remained at home with Ana. Ana c

    "Hello Ana, now is not a good ..." Aiden began but Ana's words shocked him. "What?" Aiden exclaimed and the phone fell from his hand to the ground dismantling upon impact. "Sir is everything okay?" the HR woman asked.Just then a familiar figure walked in with smiles plastered on his face. "Hello Aiden," Mr Harper greeted. "You kicked me out and humiliated me. Now see who's been kicked out," he said. "Hey everyone listen to me carefully, Aiden here is now a nobody. He is as broke as a church mouse," he said laughing. Aiden turned and exited the company. Lewis was still outside waiting for him. "Sir, where do you want me to take you?" Lewis asked but just then his phone rang. "Hello," Lewis said and was silent for a while. The call ended and Lewis threw his phone away. Aiden frowned. "It was your father. He said starting today I work for him and asked me to bring the car to his office," Lewis said. "What would you want to do sir?" he asked. "Take me to him," Aiden said Lewis go

    "That is because he is not your father but your uncle. He lied to you all your life. What he has now was left for you by your father. You must find the original documents and you can get everything back," said the voice.Aiden turned to see who had just spoken. "Err, Mr Scott, meet my mum, Mrs White-Snow. She used to be a doctor for the Scott family. I don't know for how long," Dr Jerome introduced. Aiden sat up on the bed and stared at the elderly woman who had just entered the room. Dr Jerome quickly pulled a chair for his mother. She sat down and rested both hands on her walking aid. Ana sat down next to Aiden facing the woman. Dr Jerome stood next to his mother. "She came to visit and had been around since last week," Dr Jerome said knowing Aiden would be wondering why he had never met this woman. "I would be leaving this city tomorrow. This is the longest stay in my son's apartment," said Mrs White-Snow. "I will tell you a story. Listen carefully. Your salvation is in the st

    He recognized her immediately and hugging Ana, he called out to the woman. "Monica?" Aiden called out causing Monica to freeze in her steps. Monica turned slowly to face Aiden. The two guards who were following her just moved to the side. Aiden was surprised to see Monica with guards and wearing expensive clothing complimented with expensive jewellery. Last they spoke on the phone, she had only confirmed she took money to divorce him. Was it because she found someone richer than him? This was the thought on Aiden's mind as he stared at Monica while hugging Ana with a cold expression. "Mr Scott, I understand you hate me right now. All I can say is that maybe we were not meant to be. In front of you right now is a woman with a heart of gold. Please take good care of her and protect her from your enemies," Monica said and Aiden frowned. He was with Monica and knew her very well. He understood the meaning of her statement despite the obvious and he frowned. "Are you saying someone thr

    "Ms Ana boarded a taxi. They have picked up the details of the taxi. They will contact the driver and find out where he dropped Ana," Mr Jayson said and Aiden ran his hands through his hair. "Just calm down, we will find her. The good news is those who would want to harm her are all in prison. She is safe," Mr Jayson assured. "No, I have one more enemy walking free. Even if there is enough evidence to put him in prison, he is still walking free," Aiden said. "How dangerous is this person?" Mr Jayson asked and Aiden gave the question a thought. Mr Harper may be cunning and a pervert but aside from stealing money, he will not really consider him as one who will use knives and guns. "Never mind. I think I am just worried," Aiden replied. Mr Jayson's phone rang again and his gaze shifted to the phone. He answered it and brought the phone to his ears. "Great," he said and ended the call. "They found the driver. He dropped your wife off at the park. They are on their way there," Mr Ja

    Meanwhile, Ana after resting for a while, packed her stuff and left Aiden a note as she made her way towards the exit. She then gave the apartment one last look and rubbed her belly as she walked out the front door. "I stayed back in your time of need to ensure you're restored to your former glory since it was at my side you lost it all. Now that you are back to the level where we met, you don't have to guilt yourself into being with me. I hope you will understand," Ana whispered to herself as she walked towards the gate. She checked her bag to ensure she had enough cash on her. In her mind, she was planning how she was going to live on her own. No job, no roof over her head. Well, this was her life before she met Aiden except she had the woman she thought was her mother and a little sister. They all lived in a small apartment but now she was all alone. She walked out the gate but stopped when she heard someone calling her. "Ma'am, do you need me to help you with your bag?" aske

    "Let's get out of here before the media gets here," Aiden said and got behind the wheel with Ana sitting next to him. They drove out of the compound and Aiden took Ana to his private apartment downtown. He parked the car in the garage and walked through the front door into the apartment. The last time they were there, they had to come through the back door and hide in the underground apartment. "A lot of work needs to be done here," Ana said. "Yes, but we will not live here. I prefer the apartment on the hill. It is close to my estate business," Aiden said. "So what is going to happen to this apartment?" Ana asked leaning on the side of Aiden and Aiden's hand was wrapped around her. "Clean it up and put it on the market. I already have too many apartments. I reduce them to two," Aiden said. "Okay," Ana said and Aiden walked Ana to the sofa. "I need you to get some rest. Some people will be here in the next 10 minutes to put the house in order. I have to take care of something

    "Now all I need is a good lawyer to wiggle my way out of this mess and leave this state after I have united Aiden with his parents," Mr Scott thought. Aiden returned to Mr Jayson's office and closed the door behind him. He walked towards his desk and made himself comfortable with a smile plastered on his face. "You got a confession out of him?" Mr Jayson said looking at Aiden. "I told you I would get a confession out of him," Aiden said. "My father was right, he only learns and becomes smarter after multiple fails," he added and pulled his phone out of his breast pocket and played the recording to the hearing of Mr Jayson. "We don't need the results from that DNA. This confession is perfect. Great you thought fast. If not we will have to start a search for Mr Andrew Scott's body," Mr Jayson said. "I am surprised though how he managed to bury the wrong body in the presence of all," Aiden said. "That is easy. The body was carried from one point to another in a vehicle. Within that

    "We have the world's attention. We can go out now. We go to court with the rest of the evidence to claim what is rightfully ours," Aiden said holding Ana's hand in his. The two exited the underground apartment and went out of the building. Aiden requested a ride to the courthouse. At the court, Aiden filed the case to begin the lawsuit. Aiden requested protection following the multiple attacks on his life and that of his wife and it was granted. At the president's office, Mr Scott was sitting on the sofa with the president who was not at all happy with what was going on. "Mr Scott, do you mind explaining what is going on between you and Aiden Scott?" he asked. "Mr President. Believe me. It is just a family misunderstanding which had gone out of hand," Mr Scott said. "If I remember correctly, Aiden Scott's name was dragged all over the internet, losing his business, his marriage in shambles and some rumours that say he is not your son. Now you are in the news and you have been ca

    Mr and Mrs Scott's eyes widened as they listened to the news. The news started spreading like wildfire and everyone asked where Mr Jeremy Scott was if he was still alive. "No, no, this is not good," Mrs Scott said with eyes widened. Mr Scott fetched his phone, dialled a number and waited for the call to connect. "I thought you said you were controlling the media space," Mr Scott said through gritted teeth. "Yes, but believe me. I don't know how this got out there. I have my eyes everywhere but I didn't see this one," the person replied. "I am working on it but someone is posting the story when I take it down," he added. "Do something about it," Mr Scott said and ended the call but his phone rang. "I am going to the office. I will get this taken care of before it gets out of hand," Mr Scott said and exited the room. "As usual I have to take care of everything," Mrs Scott scoffed as soon as her husband exited the room. She fetched her phone, dialled a number and waited for the c

    A medical practitioner who was at the entrance saw Mr Jayson falling to the ground and he ran to him calling for help. "He had been shot," the man shouted as held Mr Jayson in his arms. A stretcher was quickly brought out of the hospital and he was carried into the emergency. Meanwhile, Aiden and Ana were both waiting for Mr Jayson to return. After waiting for a while, Aiden decided to go look for him. As soon as he opened the door, the doctor who had provided them the space was standing behind the door. "Mr Jayson was just shot outside the hospital," the doctor said. "What?" Aiden exclaimed "By who?" he asked. "We are not sure but we are suspecting a snipper," the doctor replied. "Stay here, it is not safe outside," he added and left. "They know we are here," Aiden said to Ana. "We can't stay here. It is only a matter of time before they find us. Let's go I know what to do," he said and they both stepped out of the storage room and headed in a different direction. Aiden saw

    "When and how?" Aiden thought as he walked towards the bed and sat on it thinking of what to do. He exited the room and went to the balcony. He held the railing and stared ahead of himself. He leaned on the railing and turned to look at the space behind him. He looked briefly at the light bulb hanging from the roof and he realized it had been changed. The bulb had a camera now. Originally, the bulb had that black ring at the base but it was just for decoration. Now the black ring appears to have a focus. "So this is how the person is watching us," Aiden thought and exited the balcony and saw Ana entering the living room from outside. "You went for a walk?" Aiden asked. "Yes," Ana replied. "Without me?" Aiden asked walking towards her. "I am sorry, I didn't want to disturb you," Ana replied and sat down on the sofa. Aiden stood behind her and massaged her shoulders for a while. Ana immediately felt relaxed. Aiden's phone buzzed with a message and he stopped massaging Ana's sh
