"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
Mr Harper called Aiden, once Kate had left. "Mr Harper, why did it take you so long to answer my call?" Aiden asked and Mr Harper went silent. "Mr Harper, I don't care what you do with your spare time but respect the office rules. If you are using the office as an extension of your bedroom, can you tell the employees not to do the same?" Aiden asked. "I am not happy with this. Take your stuff outside the office," he added. "Mr Scott, you are not here. At least ask me why I didn't answer the call instead of accusing me falsely," Mr Harper said. "Don't play smart with me Mr Harper. We will not have this conversation again," Aiden said. "How is the project coming?" he asked. "We are processing 50% payment for all the materials to be delivered today," Mr Harper said. "Good, I will call our partnered suppliers to bring the items," Aiden said. "Okay," Mr Harper acknowledged and the call ended. Once the call ended, Mr Harper dialled a number on his phone and brought the phone to his
"Is about my first ex-wife and the ongoing news about me and Ana Morrison," Aiden said."Tell me what happened," Mr Jayson asked. Aiden went ahead and told Mr Jayson everything concerning Monica. "Something doesn't add up," Mr Jayson said. "You said Ms Monica was no friend of the family so it is strange your mother has her contact now that you two are divorced," he pointed out."I want to know what is happening. And there is a second request. Ms Ana Morrison lost her mother and sister in an accident. There was a fire in a Toronto apartment and a car crash here in California respectively. The driver survived and is still in the hospital," Aiden said."You want to know what exactly happened to confirm if it is just an accident?" Mr Jayson asked. "Yes," Aiden replied."Okay, Mr Scott. I will put my men on this and share findings with you," Mr Jayson said. "Let's do this as discreetly as possible. I have a feeling whoever or those involved are very close to me," Aiden said. "You are s
