"Why do you have this here?" James questioned angrily and Fiona swallowed hard sitting on the bed. "I..I...I," Fiona hesitated unsure of the best explanation to give that would sound convincing. "Answer me dammit," James yelled at Fiona making her jump on the bed. "I just wanted something for later?" Fiona said the first thing that came to mind. "Wait, you wanted a video of us in bed?" James asked with an eyebrow raised and Fiona decided to go with it. Fiona didn't think through what she had just said. She had just said it but now she can't take it back. "Yes," Fiona replied and covered her face with the pillow. "I didn't know you were into that kind of thing," James said and walked towards the bed still holding the phone in his hand. "You should have told me first. I don't like that, so delete the video," James said and climbed the bed, pulled the pillow from her face and handed the phone to her. Fiona now wonders what will be the first thing that will show if she unlocks t
"What happened to Jason?" Julia asked sitting up immediately on the bed. "Ms Julia, he is in the hospital?" Mary announced and continued with the call. "Did he come to see Julia?" asked Peter. "Yes, he was here hours ago," Mary replied and Julia got up from the bed and took the phone from her. "What happened to Jason?" Julia asked anxiously. "Not sure but he is here at the hospital. Please, I need you to tell me what happened when he came around," Peter asked. "Which hospital? I want to come over," Julia said. "She wants to come over but I am not sure of her safety. Especially when Mrs Haward is after her," Peter complained to Dr Andesh and Mr Wellington. "I will have someone pick her up, give me her address," requested Dr Andesh. "Julia, kindly send me your address, someone will come to pick you up," Peter said to Julia. "Okay," Julia replied and sent her address to Peter quickly. "Ms Julia, what did they say is wrong with Mr Haward," Mary asked seeing the call had ende
Jason kissed Julia back wrapping his arms around her. Outside the ward, Dr Andesh, Peter and Mr Wellington stood a couple of distances away from the door to Jason's ward which had two guards standing on either side of it. "So what do you think happened to him?" Mr Wellington asked. "I think he had a case of situational syncope," Dr Andesh replied. "Situational sync......what now?" asked Peter. "Situational Syncope?" Dr Andesh repeated. "What is that?" Peter asked and Mr Wellington rolled his eyes. "Situational syncope is when a patient faints in response to a specific trigger, or a specific situation. In Jason's case, Julia was the trigger," Dr Andesh explained. "What do you mean?" asked Peter. "High emotional stress," Dr Andesh replied. "Wait..." Peter was about to ask another question when Mr Wellington cut in. "He did a love confession and got rejected," Mr Wellington chips in. "Nice, you are learning fast," complimented Dr Andesh. "You forget I once owned a lab
"O dear, I am screwed," James said looking at the door. Mori stared at James briefly and decided to leave. "Where are you going?" James asked. "I am going to see your mother," Mori replied over her shoulder and James decided to follow her taking one last look at Fiona's door. Veronica, suspicious of something fishy happening in the apartment, quietly walked towards Fiona's room when James and Mori left. She knocked gently and placing her ears on the door to listen, called out to Fiona. "Ms Fiona, are you in there?" Veronica called out but heard nothing. So she decides to open the door and peep in. She scanned the room and found Fiona sitting on the bed hugging her legs. She walked in and closed the door behind her. She walked towards Fiona's bed wondering what they had done to her. "Ms Fiona, are you alright?" Veronica asked. "Who is Fiona?" Fiona asked and Veronica was surprised. "Is everything alright?" Veronica asked. "Who are you and what do you want?" Fiona asked l
"Oh Jason, you made enemies everywhere. Just wait, I am getting a powerful ally. I am coming for you," Mrs Haward said with a smile, turned off the light and pulled the sheets to cover herself. It was midnight and the whole apartment was now very quiet. So quiet that even the sound of a pin could be heard if dropped to the ground. Veronica lay on her bed wondering what was going on in the apartment. Since the day, Julia was brought to the apartment by Jason after being taken from her apartment in Croydon, Jason tasked her to let him know immediately anytime Julia is brought to the apartment again. It was obvious Jason knew his family might pick Julia up again. She tossed and turned in her bed wondering if she should tell Jason about what was going on even though it had nothing to do with Julia. "I wonder what they did to the woman," Veronica thought and turned to face the direction of the window closing her eyes to sleep. At Dr Andesh's Private Hospital, Julia opened her eyes hea
Mrs Haward stood in the private room looking outside the window when she heard the door open. A smile appeared on her face. She turned to see the person who had just entered believing it was Mr Welligton but her smile quickly turned into a frown when she saw it was one of the staff who had just brought her a cup of tea. "A treat from the hotel's restaurant," the staff said."Thank you, you can leave," Mrs Haward said annoyed, walking back to the window. The young lady exited the room and Mr Wellington entered same time. Feeling she was still not alone, she rolled her eyes and spoke sternly."I thought I asked you to leave. What do you still want with ....." Mrs Haward stopped as she came face to face with Mr Wellington upon turning to continue yelling at the girl she thought was still in the room. "Oh!" Mrs Haward smiled awkwardly realizing it wasn't the lady who had come to serve her the tea and she froze in her spot. "That is an interesting welcome, Mrs Haward," came Mr Wellingto
Julia covered her mouth with both hands and Jason raised his eyebrow. "Yes," Mr Wellington affirmed his statement. "Does it mean their true father does not know of their existence?" Jason asked to understand if James and Mirenda's biological father had not shown up because he didn't know about them or because of the fear of the Hawards. "James's father is no more. He sneaked into the family Condo when your stepmother was pregnant with James and the guards attacked him as an intruder. Unfortunately, he didn't make it out alive," Mr Wellington explained. "I see," acknowledged Jason but he recalled his words again and frowned his brow. "Wait! you said James's father, do you mean to say Mirenda had a different father?" Jason asked to confirm his thought knowing it only meant Julia was the one true Haward. "Yes. As for Mirenda's father, he doesn't know about his child," Mr Wellington said and leaned forward in his seat. "He is not the kind of man, your stepmother will even be caught d
Meanwhile, back in Haward's apartment, Fiona was in the bathroom using another phone to text Vera. Vera, they know. Please lay low for now Fiona clicked send and read on the phone screen 'sent'. She took out the sim from the phone and dropped it into the toilet bowl. She dismantled the phone and started breaking the parts into pieces, dropping them into the toilet bowl. When she could not break the phone any further, she used the toilet plunger to push the bigger parts of the phone pieces away and flashed the toilet ensuring it was clean. "Sweetheart," came James's voice from behind the door. "Yes," Fiona responded walking towards the door but James entered with a smile plastered on his face. "Are you alright?" James asked his eyes scanning the bathroom which appeared to be clean. Nothing is out of place. Fiona walked towards James and hugged him resting her head on his chest. "What is happening to me? Who am I?" Fiona asked her voice very soft and low. "Nothing. You just bu
