CHAPTER SIXTY ONE

AUDREY BLACK'S POVWhat do I do now? I didn't know if I should honor Jordan's invitation or not. Gosh! I hate not being able to control my emotions. I hate being too vulnerable before anyone. Why now? I have never been the type to be dependent on people especially, when it had a whole lot to do with my heart. I had told him my coming over to his place may not be so soon because I was busy but from the little I have known about Jordan, he wouldn't give up that easily. He may not bring it up again today, tomorrow or next, but he will definitely do. And just for how long do I intend to keep avoiding from now on? What do I tell him if he eventually asks? I need to talk to Mia about this once I am done. She is the only one that will understand me. And perhaps, she might have an answer to give to me.I stood up from the bed and went into the bathroom to have my bath. I washed my hair with my vanilla shampoo and also my vanilla conditioner. I love the way my hair smelled when I was done.

CHAPTER SIXTY TWO

JORDAN'S POV It has been over a week now and I haven't set my eyes on Audrey. She was unable to make it to my place the following day because she suddenly received a call that took her out of the country giving her no chance to even keep to her promise. I got a call from her that morning telling that she was heading down to the airport because her attention was needed urgently for a business deal. These few days have felt like hell to me for not seeing her. Sometimes when I call, I will only get her voicemail asking me to leave a message. I have left messages countless times hoping she will call me back but she never did. Instead, she will send a message saying she was busy. The waiting was killing. During this time while she wasn't around, I had removed the neck brace I was wearing. My leg is almost healed as well. I had gotten information last night from Aiden that she was coming home this morning. So I woke up earlier this morning to have my bath so I could go see her.I deci

CHAPTER SIXTY THREE

MIA'S POVI got a call from Jordan this morning which was strange. He has never called my number before. asking about where Audrey who just came back from her trip last night was"Hello! Who is this please?" I asked after picking up the unknown call." Mia, this is Jordan. Please, I have been trying to reach Audrey but her line isn't reachable. Do you have any idea where she might be?""Oh! Ummm.. She went to get something from her apartment not too long ago.""Alright thank you for your help."With that, he ended the call. Poor guy!! For some reason, Audrey has been dodging his calls and I've been wondering why.The morning she was planning on going to see him, she got a call, so she had to take the next available flight to Australia. I hope the call I got from Jordan was because he wants to set things straight between them. I know he has feelings for her just as she does for him. It was about time they do something about that; which was the main reason I told him where she was. On

CHAPTER SIXTY FOUR

MIA'S POV " Why?" She groaned, stomping her feet on the floor. I almost laughed at her childish attitude. " Something about the investigation came up and that is also the reason Aiden is coming home early today. ""Really, what happened exactly?""John, the estate guard called Mr Q to inform him that the guards that were on duty that morning and night will be resuming back to work a few hours from now."" I hope they can get a real lead this time."*Me too. I'm tired of this already. I just want it to end so everyone can move on with their normal life activities without fear and excessive protections. It is tiring. I want to return back to work." I grumbled. "I totally understand Mia. I feel the same way you do. So, are we going to go with them to see the guards?"" I don't want to." I said, stomping my feet on the floor like she did earlier. " The men can go meet them, while we stay here to celebrate your happiness with some ice cream. " I suggested, jumping on the bed excitedly.

CHAPTER SIXTY FIVE

AIDEN'S POVSomething seemed fishy but I can't seem to point it out. Audrey just asked me out of the blue if she could go out with Mia tomorrow. Just the two of them. Maybe Mia was actually right. I'm over thinking things lately. It was just an innocent outing. Besides, Mia has been indoor for so long and I don't want her thinking that I'm trying to rule her life even though all I do lately is for her own good. I'm hoping talking with these guards today can give us a positive lead to this investigation.I quickly rushed my food in order for us to move forward with what we have at hand today. I went upstairs to quickly change my clothes into something more comfortable. "Shall we all go now?" I asked once I got downstairs. "After you sir.""By the way, thanks for coming around Jordan.""Don't mention it man. I hope this can provide more clues for Mr Q.""The same thing I'm hoping for. " I sighed. We all went to meet John who in turn called the guards that were on duty that day. Both

CHAPTER SIXTY SIX

AIDEN'S POV" I'm taking this photo straight to a professional who will help me match the picture with potential suspects". Mr Q said"Okay Mr Q but remember, I don't want this out to the public.""No problem sir. Another thing, this information we got shouldn't be disclosed to any of your staff sir. At least not yet.""You have no problem with that Mr Q."We went back to my mansion but my mind wasn't at rest at all. I was scared about everything. I was scared of leaving Mia at home again. I was scared for her life. Even though Mr Q assured me the intruder can't be anywhere on my property, I was still not at peace. I need to make sure of that but how do I do that without raising any suspicion? My heart raced as I thought about the young man in the photo and wondered why Mia? Why me? Who did we offend? His face looked so innocent and harmless but his heart was full of evil. To be candid, I don't think Mr Daniel will go this extra mile to harm Mia all because she slapped him but peop

CHAPTER SIXTY SEVEN

MIA'S POV After we bidded farewell to Jordan, Aiden asked Audrey and I to go wait for him in his room while he walked Jordan out. I knew whatever Aiden wanted to discuss with Audrey and I wasn't really pleasant news judging by the seriousness in his voice and on his face.I'm fed up with all this bad news. Since I came into his life, it has been from one bad news to the other. It was beginning to bother me so much. It feels like I had become bad luck and a bother to them both. They have been living their lives so peacefully before now. Why did all these bad things have to happen now? I feel so responsible for this. I couldn't help but feel guilty."What could be going on again?" I asked Audrey once we got inside the room. "I don't know but whatever it is, it must be very serious.""Gosh! When will all of these come to an end? You know, I can't help but feel guilty for all of these sometimes.""What are you saying Mia? None of this is your fault.""Yes Audrey! It is. Can't you see?

CHAPTER SIXTY EIGHT

MIA'S POV"You are right Aiden. I went out of line and I'm sorry about that. It won't happen again." I said to him apologetically. I wanted nothing more than for him to come to bed Instead of drowning himself in alcohol. I don't want him to see me as a person who bring problems into his life and someone who nags him about his past.I wanted to be more than just a lover to him. I want him to be able to confide in me and not run away from me. I want to be a friend to him and not a foe. "Do you forgive me?" I asked him in a soft voice. He finally met my gaze with his, unwavering. "Do I have a choice? Even if I wanted to stay mad at you, I couldn't." He huffed and I smiled softly. "I'm sorry. Please let's go to the room. Enough of this alcohol consumption." I held him by the hand and led him to the room. I have never seen him this vulnerable or exhausted like this before. As soon as his head touched the pillow, he slept off immediately. I felt for him. If there was anything I could

CHAPTER SIXTY NINE

AIDEN'S POVI haven't really been in a good mood since last night. It wasn't just because of Mia's statement to me last night. It had nothing to do with her.I know it must have been hard for her to date someone like me. Someone who has refused to talk about his past. She has every right to know but for now, my past is the last thing I want to think about when I have a bigger problem at hand. I hated that I snapped at her last night but that wasn't entirely my fault. I was frustrated already and she just added to it at that moment.I mean, I just found out that I have a killer living under my roof. I knew she was worried about me, especially since I refused to speak so much to her or anyone else at that. What would have become of me if she had died in my house? I wanted the search to be over. I don't want anything to get past me. If there is anyone still hiding in my property or if our conversations are bugged. Aside from the people Jordan got for me to help out, I had also gotten

CHAPTER SEVENTY

AIDEN'S POVI gripped my hair and growled out in annoyance. This was fucking getting on my nerves. The workers in front of me were already trembling in fear. I didn't want to scare them or pass any aggression to them so I decided to pay them so they could be on their way. " We have been paid by Mr Jordan sir". One of them said to me,I wasn't actually surprised Jordan would take it upon himself to pay them. Even after going through the trouble of getting them down here on a short notice."Come on man. You didn't have to do that." I said to him when he got to my side "It is nothing Aiden. I told you I'll always be here for you.""Thank you," I was a bit relieved there was no stranger hiding in my property. By the time I was through with everything that I was doing, it was already nightfall.I specifically told Mr Timothy to prepare something for the three of us to eat while I sat in the kitchen counter watching him as he prepared the food. Once Mia was done eating, she bidded ever
