"Aiden is gone and their stupid security cameras were capturing nothing. No one knew when he left the hospital. The nurse went to his ward to administer his early-hours medication only to find an empty ward," Mr Scott replied and Mrs Scott frowned. "Aiden's doctor," Mrs Scott said after 5 minutes of silence."What about him?," Mr Scott asked sounding irritated. "I am telling you Aiden is gone and you are talking about his doctor," he added. "Aiden was injected with medication to keep him weak. If he had managed to leave the hospital, he would go to his doctor for treatment," Mrs Scott said. "You are right," Mr Scott agreed and quickly got on the phone. Back at Aiden's apartment, Amanda woke up in high spirits. Alice and her mother are no more. Ana is in prison and Aiden is in the hospital. Now is the time to file for a divorce and take everything from Aiden. She will now focus on Mr and Mrs Scott. She was ready to make them pay for the loss of her father. "Get up Marcus. There is
"Sir, Aiden Scott just logged into his account," the person said. "Good, find his new location and report back to me," Mr Scott said and the call ended. "Now I need something that will force Aiden to sign the divorce papers and give in to Amanda's demand," Mr Scott thought and Monica came to mind. "Aiden will do anything for Monica but there is also Ana. I wish I understood the relationship between Ana and Aiden. Was she just a surrogate or there was more," Mr Scott thought. "Let's see how fast he will move to get Ana out of prison," he said to himself and continued with his work. Back at the office, Amanda was behind her laptop working when her phone buzzed with a strange number. She stared at the number for a while and allowed the call to drop. She checked her call history and realized the number had tried calling her earlier. She called the person back. "Hello, who is this?" Amanda said but was met with silence but she could hear someone breathing studily. "Hello?" Amanda as
"Perfect," Aiden said and sat down behind his desk. He downloaded the attachment in the email and started going through it. "If that is what you want, I will gladly fulfil your wish," Aiden said and started filling out the attached form.Once he was done filling out the form, he attached the sign pad and signed the document before sending it back to the sender. Aiden stood up from behind his desk and went up to the rooftop with his laptop. Relaxing on the seat, he continued to work on his piled-up files as he was away for close to 72 hours. At the police station, Chris had a call from the police headquarters. He quickly answered the call seeing the caller ID."Hello, sir," Chris said."You have Ana Morrison in your station?" the boss asked."Yes sir. The Scotts filed a case against her," Chris replied."Well, the Scotts also called me. Release her immediately," the boss said."Yes sir," Chris replied and the call ended. Chris dialled Mr Harper's number on his phone and waited for h
"Get ready, Friday, we are going to court," Amanda said staring at him. "I will take everything away from you. By the time I am done with you, a street beggar will be richer than you," she added and Aiden chuckled. "No problem," Aiden replied and Amanda also smiled wickedly. Marcus was sitting in the car watching the two. He was happy Amanda didn't kiss Aiden. He moved the car into the garage to park as Amanda headed for the main house. Aiden sat in the back seat of his car and Lewis drove out of the compound heading towards Mr Harper's home. On the way to Mr Harper's apartment, Aiden called Mr Harper. "Hello Mr Scott, happy to hear from you," Mr Harper said on the other end of the call. "I see," Aiden said. "Where is Ms Morrison?" he asked. "I don't understand," Mr Harper replied pretending not to have heard Aiden's questions. "You picked up Ms Morrison from the police station. Where did you take her?" Aiden asked. "And before you lie to me, know that there is a picture of you p
Outside in front of the ICU. Aiden was feeling sorry for Ana when he saw a familiar figure pushing someone in a wheelchair. "Monica?" Aiden whispered and took long strides towards the person to confirm if it was really Monica. "Monica," Aiden called out and the lady stopped.The lady turned around to see the face behind the familiar voice. "Aiden," Monica said when she came face to face with Aiden. He was not his usual self. He was in his full tuxedo but there was something off about him. Monica knows him too well, to know there is something wrong with someone he cares deeply about. Her eyes noticed the blood stain on the collar of his shirt and Monica wondered what happened."Monica," Aiden said looking at her before his eyes shifted to the person sitting in the wheelchair."How are you doing?" Monica asked lowering her head."What do you think?" Aiden replied recalling the drug incident at the hotel which made him marry Amanda. "And who is this?" he asked without waiting for Mon
"I am going to send some details to you. I want you to verify them for me. Use a different approach," Aiden said and ended the call. He typed something on his phone and sent it over to the person. He raised his head to look at Ana one more time before leaving the hospital. Lewis saw Aiden coming and he moved the call closer. "Where are going, sir?" Lewis asked. "To the office," Aiden said and Lewis moved the car out of the hospital's compound and headed for A&M Constructions. At A&M Constructions, Mr Harper had called a meeting with the various heads and he was sharing with them a different plan for executing the railway project. "Wait, but Mr Scott shared a detailed project plan for this project why can't we use it?" the finance manager asked. "I am the new project lead. I am bringing a plan I can work with," Mr Harper replied. "Okay, what is wrong with the plan we have now?" the finance manager asked. "I can't point out the problems with it now. So let' just make another on
Angry, Amanda dialled the number but no one answered even though it was going through. She typed a message and sent it to the person.Who are you and what do you want from me?Amanda sent the message and waited to see what would happen. The message was delivered and a reply was sent from the same number. Amanda opened the received message and read it.Who I am does not matter. What I can do to you is what you should be thinking about. I know you, Ms Amanda Thatcher. You are staying in Aiden Scott's apartment. You are wearing a grey suit and sitting behind your desk with your phone in your hands. I like your diamond earrings by the way and the silver hair fascinator in your hair. I like the string panty and the red bra you are wearing underneath clothes. I wish I could say something about the expression on your face when you read this but I will only see that after sending the message. I am watching youAmanda read the reply and started looking around. She stood up from behind her desk
"How did he get that?" Amanda said and immediately remembered the strange call and message. "Is it Aiden?" Amanda thought. Back at the hospital, Aiden smiled after the call ended. He put the phone back in his pocket and walked towards Ana's bed. He sat on the chair and held her hand in his staring at her sleeping face."You will leave here soon and I promise to protect you," Aiden said and kissed the back of her hand. He recalled how he felt when he saw his ex-wife Monica again and compared it to how he felt about Ana. "I love you, Ana. I don't know how it happened but I do know I love you. I want you by my side forever," Aiden confessed, kissing the back of her hand again. Aiden rested his head on the space left on Ana's bedside while still sitting. He was still holding Ana's hand in his. In the morning, Ana opened her eyes to see Aiden resting his head on the little space left at the side of the hospital bed she was lying in. She tried to move her hand but realised Aiden was h
