Clara was surprised, but she kept her cool and played along," How did you manage to escape those gunmen?” She asked in exaggerated surprise, widening her eyes as though she saw a ghost as she looked around. He was in a smaller car this time, by small she meant that it was not as dramatic as a limousine, not that it was cheap.Her eyes flew to his arm which was bandaged thoroughly, and she looked at his face expecting to see pain, instead, she saw a relaxed man. He didn't seem to be feeling any pain," How's your hand doing?” She asked in concern and tried to touch it, but he jerked away. “ Oh, sorry. I don't know what I was thinking.” “Where are we going?” She asked him, and he looked at her, with a small smirk on his face. She stared at him too," Why are you staring at me?” “ You were staring first,” “ I wasn't…Is that a gun?” She swallowed when she saw the compact open, why was he holding a gun and taking her somewhere she didn't know tonight? Her brain went into overdrive as v

“What do you mean by she escaped your hands, how did she manage to outsmart you? I could have sworn that you wouldn't be able to be gotten rid of, but now she did it without any stress” B spoke angrily. Of all the things that he expected his brother to do, this was certainly not it. He paced around the office, if it were another person who committed this crime, he wouldn't have hesitated to kill them off, but here he was trying to hear what his twin's stupid reason was. “Let's have it.” He said, and he looked at him, with a withering glare.“ It would have been too obvious if I stopped her from leaving, it was tantamount to kidnap, you know that. Drugging her would have been the best.” Terrence said. Blaze was very angry and his eyes raged with furious anger, if it were another person, shit! He would have killed them instantly, how dare Terence tell him that his option was better," You are getting on my nerves and I don't like it. I gave you a simple job, I got Henry without stres

Clara took a step backward when she heard what he said," You killed someone?” Henry repeated to be certain he heard him well.“ Yes. I admit that there was a time when I was involved in some dealings at a point in my life. He tried to kill me, and I retaliated. I should have known that he would have a kid that would try to take vengeance.” Pops sighed and shut his eyes as he remembered the unfortunate incident.“ Do you think his brother will return?” Henry asked. It was only normal that Terrence would try to retaliate, he didn't want to continue the cycle again.“Caine is working towards that.” “ I'm sorry to announce to you that he is not the only one who is after you.” Caine interrupted from the doorway, cutting their attention away. “ I found out that we might have other people who are after you, and so you still have to be under protection.” He said.Henry sighed, this was what he feared, he wouldn't be able to move freely without looking over his shoulder. “ What's the way fo

Derek didn't waste time in hugging Clara, and he went as far as twirling her around as Clara stared in horror. Oh my goodness, what would he be thinking? She wondered.“ Derek!” She exclaimed and slapped his hands away when she saw Henry's eyes zone in on their joined bodies. His stare was disapproving and she felt weird.“Hey, it's nice to see you back to life.” Derek joked, but Henry didn't find it funny, his lips curled up in distaste.What are you doing? Clara wondered, but he didn't say anything. He looked like he was enjoying himself. “ How are things on your end?” Henry inquired. Derek didn't look like he was still mourning his dad one bit, and they looked at him. His sunny disposition needed to be studied. “I am glad to see both of you happy and well.” He said, and they stared at each other.“ What?” “ You are alive and well, isn't it a great thing?” He asked and they nodded. “ That's what I wanted to hear,” Derek said and observed the pair, they had not confessed their fe

Clara woke up with a start when she felt a hand on her shoulder, it was light and feathery abs she nuzzled into the hands. They felt familiar and she smiled. She hopes that it was Henry. Well, that could be the only person who could touch her shoulder without her permission, and she wouldn't get angry too well. As she saw that he was staring at her with a surprised expression, she jumped to her feet immediately. Did she do something wrong? She wondered.Oh! She was supposed to work on the presentation tomorrow, but here she was sleeping. “ I'm sorry, I didn't work on my computer, if you would permit me, I'll run along and get it from my room.” She said, her eyes unable to meet his. “ It's okay.” Henry said. Clara panicked, and her legs trembled, why was he staring at her as though she had committed a heinous crime? For all she knew, she hadn't done anything wrong except fall asleep.“ Did I do something wrong, sir?” She asked.“ No, you didn't,” He replied.Then why are you stari
