CHAPTER FIFTY ONE

AIDEN'S POVI was still very much in a happy mood when I left Audrey and Mia to go do some work in my office in the house. I wished everyday would continue to be like today. It was indeed a very heartwarming breakfast with a peaceful and conversational atmosphere. For some reason, Mia was able to lift everybody's spirits up this morning. Despite what she has gone through, she somehow managed to bring back the joy we once had in this house and I'm hoping that even though it won't be that easy because of the investigation, this joy will still remain. There is nothing I want more than to see the two people I love most in this worldbeing happy. As much as I know that no man will be good enough to take care of Audrey, I know for a fact that I will someday let her be with the man she loves. Her happiness comes first. Just then, my phone rang and when I looked at the caller, it was HER. What the hell does she want? Why is she suddenly calling me again? I put her number on voicemail but w

CHAPTER FIFTY TWO

AIDEN'S POV "What do you think sir?" " I don't know what to think." I muttered. " With my years of experience in this job, I don't think that the security men on duty that night were working with the intruder and there was no way all of them could have fallen asleep at the same time." He said thoughtfully. Thinking deeply on what he just said, I think there is some atom of unbelievable truth in it. It is just too impossible for all of them to be traitors and more impossible for all to have fallen asleep at the same time. This matter is becoming more complicated to understand where this problem was generated from."Mr Q, there is something confusing me right now." "What is it sir?""I hope it won't be too far-fetched if I ask this question?" I said, he nodded for me to go on. " Could it be possible that one of the security guards could have been working with the intruder and he drugged the rest of his colleagues?""That is a possibility sir. However, we don't really have any evid

CHAPTER FIFTY THREE

MIA'S POVI was lost in my own world of fear and panic. Fear of the unknown became the order of the day in my life at that very moment. What does the future hold for me in this house? It has been a few days since the discovery from CCTV that someone actually broke into this house for the purpose of harming me and my unborn child and they actually succeeded in accomplishing their hideous plan. I know they will not stop at this,until they have succeeded in killing me too. What I don't understand is who could have done this? Who did I offend in this life? It has been just a few months since I came to this city. And ever since that time, I haven't had a single leisure time on my hands to make friends let alone hang out with them. It has been work, work and work. The only time I get to go out is if it was work related. "Mia, you are trembling again. What is the matter?" The concerned voice of Aiden brought me out of my diverse thoughts."I just can't help it. It is too worrisome to

CHAPTER FIFTY FOUR

MIA'S POV"I'm quite familiar with the story he just told us all now." I revealed." Familiar how? " Audrey asked " I kept quiet all these while because I wanted to see if he would try to keep it to himself but to my greatest surprise, he didn't." I said. " You are not making any sense at all, Miss Anderson." Mr Q said."That is because you people keep interrupting me." I exclaimed in frustration. I watched them all closely to see if anyone wanted to say anything. When I saw there wasn't, I continued with what I was saying. "Anyways,he wasn't lying about the sleep and the bowl of water. I woke up very early that morning and I was unable to sleep back. I went out from my room to the sitting room to try to find some fruit to snack on. Suddenly I realized that the compound was awfully quiet which was so odd. The security men all have this habit of discussing with one another. Maybe, it was their own way of staying awake or to inform any intending intruder that there are people awake i

CHAPTER FIFTY FIVE

MIA'S POV"Did you say he asked Aiden to offer me to him?" I asked Audrey, bewildered. " Yeah.. I think that was what ended the partnership with him " That man was so disgusting. How can an old man want a young girl old enough to be his daughter to become his mistress? He had no shame at all.Just as we were discussing, we heard Aiden and Mr Q come in. As soon as they entered inside, we turned towards them with a questioning gaze. "So, what happened? How did it go? " Audrey asked. "So far, we haven't been able to get anything from them. The guards who worked on that day and night are not available. The one that worked in the morning won't be on duty till Monday. As for the one that worked at night that day, we missed him. But Mr Q was able to get one of the guards on duty to give him a call once the guard showed up." Aiden said. "You guys were not able to access the CCTV too? " I asked."Mr Q said he wants to ask the guards some questions first before that." Aiden answered. He lo

CHAPTER FIFTY SIX

AIDEN'S POVI don't know if I should be mad at Mia or be proud of her for what she did. I can't believe she didn't tell me about her discovery about my security men. All because she wanted to keep her promise to them. I know all of these things are also affecting her. Sometimes, I don't know if I'm to be blamed for what she is going through. I needed to keep cool and not add to her misery. But if she had spoken out before now, who knows if we could have prevented anything from happening. But could we have really prevented it?; I thought. If I think about it very well, I don't think I'm mad at her. I'm just pained about the loss of the baby and everything all together. She has been trying to talk to me but I've been avoiding her because I don't want to say anything to hurt her feelings. This morning wasn't any different. After preparing breakfast and eating myself, I waited for her to come downstairs for hers before retreating to my study. I could hear her and Audrey's voice down

CHAPTER FIFTY SEVEN

AIDEN'S POV" MODELING? " I asked in exasperation."Yes, Modeling! What's wrong with that?" Gosh! Can she hear herself right now? I can't believe after what actually happened to her all because of a modeling job,she will even think about this career ever again in her life. Women!! Why can't they learn at their first misfortune? What is in this modeling job for goodness sake. Just a bunch of half naked women on a runway showing all of the most important parts of their body to the whole world. No way! Not Mia!! I'm not going to allow her to even consider that for the second time again. I imagined her walking on a runway with all the men's eyes glued on her body and lusting after her body. No way I was going to let that happen. " NO WAY." I said, my voice firm and sharp. "Why not? There's nothing wrong with it. " She asked. Just then, my phone rang and I was glad it did because it actually brought this conversation to a stop for now. I know she will definitely bring this up again

CHAPTER FIFTY EIGHT

AUDREY'S POV"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN YOU ARE FINE? YOU ARE NOT FINE." I shouted at Jordan with tears rolling down my eyes.They all turned to me with shock written all over their faces. I was having an emotional breakdown right there, in front of everyone including my brother. I don't know why, but I found it very difficult to control my outburst and tears which I have been holding from the moment Aiden broke the news to me.I was surprised at myself. For reacting the way I did. But the deed has not been done. I can't change it. I quickly recomposed myself and wiped my tears. "I'm sorry y'all. I don't know what came over me. If you will excuse me. I need some fresh air." I left them and went outside.Before I shut the door,I heard Mia's voice "Excuse me, I will just check up on her." She said before following behind me. "Oh my God! I just embarrassed myself in the presence of Jordan and Aiden. Damn it Audrey! You just made a fool out of yourself." I cursed out openly, using my

CHAPTER FIFTY NINE

AUDREY'S POVMia was right. I guess I really feel something for him. Suddenly, I got courage from what Mia said to me. Now that I know that I have feelings for Jordan, although, I can't say if it is a complete love or just a chemistry. I will try to talk with Aiden whom I know without doubt wouldn't take this news lightly with me. I released Mia from the hug and held both of her hands. "Please promise me that no matter what, you will fight for what you feel for Jordan. That is, if he feels the same way." She said sticking out her pinky finger. She was such a baby. I grinned cheekily and crossed it with mine. " I promise. Thank you so much Mia." "For what?""For everything. For being here and for making me see what I refused to see.""I will always be here for you like you have always been there for me Audrey."I pecked her on both cheeks and we got into the car. Since we didn't bring the driver along, I drove the both of us home myself. Once we got home, we both went to our sepa

CHAPTER SIXTY

JORDAN'S POVI was surprised and at the same time shocked to see Audrey tearing up after seeing me in this clutches and neck brace. For days, I was in the hospital due to the ghastly accident I was involved in. I had intentionally kept it away from Aiden and Audrey because of the problem they were going through. Mia just recently got discharged from the hospital plus the investigation that just started. I didn't want to add to his troubles, so I instructed my staff at home and my workers when they came to see me at the hospital to keep it away from him.Seeing Audrey burst out emotionally made me wonder what went wrong. Truth to be told, I have always liked her more than a sister and wanted to be with her right from the very first day that I set my eyes on her.I have never had the courage to speak to her openly about my feelings because I was afraid of being rejected. Besides, the last thing I needed was to lose her friendship totally because of my proclamation of love.There was A
