'He is suspicious. Forget Aiden and deal with him. We need to act now. Remember, no mistakes. Do a clean job' He typed, read through and sent it. After receiving an acknowledgement. He took the SIM card out of the phone and destroyed it. He walked to the sink after and washed his hands before exiting the washroom to join the others beaming with smiles. The whole programme came to an end and Mr Scott left with his wife back to their apartment after a couple of meetings with some government officials. Mr Thatcher exited the conference room to find his daughter's car also parked next to his. "Did they see you coming in?" Mr Thatcher asked, referring to Mr and Mrs Scott. "No, I don't think so. I came from the opposite direction. I saw their car joining the road while I was a couple of distance away," Amanda replied. "Good. Come sit with me," Mr Thatcher said pointing to his car. "Okay," Amanda said and asked her driver to follow them in her car. Amanda and her father sat in the b
"I understand. No mistakes," the man repeated what the person on the other end of the call had said before ending the call. The man remained in the car watching Mr Thatcher and his daughter on his phone tablet. He plugged in the hearing device and listened in on their conversation.Inside the apartment, in the dining area, Amanda tried to find out what her father was planning. "Dad, I know you didn't believe what Mr Scott told you. What are you planning?" Amanda asked."I will have to see the president, to remove Mr Scott from office but I need evidence to prove my claim," Mr Thatcher said. Amanda wanted to give all the information she had found on Ana to Mr Thatcher but that would only make him change his mindset about Aiden. She wanted her father to believe Aiden was having an affair with another woman."Do you already have someone doing that?" Amanda asked."Starting tomorrow, I will have one of my men keep an eye on him," Mr Thatcher said. "You can also have the secretary keep
Aiden will have to come out of the bathroom eventually and she will be there waiting for him. The drug she had given him would take hours to wear off. Unless he intend to stay in the shower for the next couple of hours, he would have to come out. Amanda smiled making herself comfortable on Aiden's bed. "Aiden why get your hands tired when I am here," Amanda said. Back in Ana's room, Aiden was in bed with Ana, lost in permission. Ana was confused and didn't know what to do but allowed the passion to consume her. Aiden may appear to be very hard and one without emotions, but when it comes to bringing a woman's desire up to the surface, he does have a couple of tricks up his sleeves. Back in Aiden's room, Amanda was beginning to doubt if Aiden was in the bathroom. She exited the room and came to Ana's but it was locked. She placed her ears on the door and heard a muffled sound. It sounded like someone in pain. Amanda had confused Ana's muffled cry thinking it was because of what she pu
"Here. They leave here," the lad said and Ana knocked on the door after climbing the staircase. Alice opened the door and Ana's eyes widened as she and Alice stood there frozen. Ana looked at Alice from head to toe. Her appearance and the clothes she was wearing showed that she lived there. "Alice, is that the delivery guy?" came Mrs Morrison's voice from inside but Alice could not reply. "Alice, are you okay? Why are you still standing at the door like you have seen a gho.....," Mrs Morrison said as she headed for the front door but froze when she also came face to face with Ana. "Someone explain what is going on to me," Ana asked still with her hands on her belly which gives her some pain occasionally. "We work here," Mrs Morrison said the first thing that came to mind but Ana will not buy it. "You work here, dressed like this? Stop lying to me," Ana said. "Are you even sick?' she asked. "Lie to you? Why am I even explaining myself to you?" Mrs Morrison began."Mum," Ana said
At Scott's residence, Mr Scott was getting ready to leave for his office. "In a couple of hours, Mr Thatcher would not be a problem any more. We can focus on Aiden," he said. "That is great. We should take care of him before he finds out the truth," Mrs Scott said. In Toronto, Aiden upon arrival boarded a taxi to the hospital whose address Perez sent him. The car stopped in front of the hospital entrance and Aiden got out of the car and headed for the hospital entrance after paying the driver off. Perez saw Aiden coming and he walked towards. "What happened?" Aiden asked upon seeing Perez. "I am not sure. We went to Toronto," Perez began and Aiden frowned. "Ma'am, Mother stays in an expensive apartment in Toronto. I am not sure what happened inside but Ma'am was inside for a long time. She was pushed out of the apartment by her mother. Next, I saw her going down. I rushed to her side and realized she was bleeding," Perez narrated. "Bleeding?" Aiden asked. "Yes, she is in the eme
"What happened?" Marcus asked trying to comfort Amanda who was already crying. "My dad. My dad was in that plane," Amanda said in tears and Marcus's eyes widened. "Calm down, please. Let's wait to hear the news and you will know where your father is. For all you know he may be fine," Marcus comforted and turned the TV volume up. "The Pakistan airport has been hit with a tragic incident. An Airplane that flew in from California just caught fire before passengers onboard could come out of the plane. Information reaching out has it that, some of the passengers onboard include dignitaries from the government who had flown in to help settle the misunderstanding generated by the government policies passed to protect citizens following the September 11th incident. The fire service team, who got here on time to save the situation are currently checking for survivors. Our heart condolences to families whose relatives were on the plane," said the reporter. "My dad, no no no," Amanda cried ge
"Baby mama business. I also heard, he sent Amanda away," Ruth said. "To make things worse, the utility bills have not been paid since Mr Anderson arrived," she added. "What!" Mr Scott exclaimed. "Yes," Ruth said folding her arms across her chest. Mr Scott quickly fetched his phone and tried calling Aiden. The call quickly went to voicemail. He tried multiple times and the result is the same. "Ruth take over the hotel business and let Mr Anderson assist you with the management. It is my company and if Aiden could leave for three days without telling anyone anything then I can also remove him without discussion," Mr Scott said. "I have wanted to give him some grace period but I guess he wants to leave so I will grant him his request," Mr Scott said and Ruth smiled. Ruth knew her father was going to remove Aiden as heir but he wanted to use him for a while but she didn't have the patience to wait. Aiden had taken an emergency leave to fix the issue in his private business but Ruth d
She was led out of the intensive care unit. Marcus was waiting in the corridor. Amanda just hugged Marcus breaking down."He is gone," Amanda said. "I am sorry," Marcus said hugging Amanda as she wept bitterly on his shoulders. The officials that were sent over by the government have equally received the news of Mr Thatcher's passing. They did the paperwork in a couple of hours Mr Thatcher's body was on the way back to California for the burial and Amanda also left with them. The news quickly went viral with every news channel announcing the passing the passing of the senator. "The city of California woke up to a rather devasting news. Mr Christian Thatcher, our senator, passed in the early hours of this morning. This was following the incident of their plane catching fire upon landing at the Pakistan airport. Mr Thatcher embarked on this trip to help settle the misunderstanding arising from the passing of policies by the US government to protect citizens following the September 1
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
