Chapter 161“De La Castle Hotel and Suites”, Elena said as she flipped it over. It was like a mini magazine in many folds.“Is this where we are going?”“It is where we are”, the driver said as he pulled up in one corner of the vast compound.One of the porters came to their limousine and got the door for Elena. “Madam..”, he said, standing behind the door and waiting earnestly for her to alight.Elena adjusted her glasses so they'd stay up on her hair. She alighted slowly, holding the frame of the window as she stood before the magnificent structure of the Hotel. “Not bad”, she said, nodding her head slowly. The other porters were already taking her bags inside.“Benvenuto in De la Castle Hotel and Suites ,Signora (welcome to De la Castle Hotel and Suites) ”, the doorman greeted her as she pushed the rotating glass door in.Inside was even more beautiful. Three piece chandeliers hung majestically down from the ceiling in the reception and lobby. The reception and lobby were adorned

Chapter 162Another porter was at the elevator and he pressed the downward button as they approached. “Benvenuto Signore. Welcome ma'am”, the porter said to them as the elevator doors slid open.“Grazie”, Andrew responded,letting Elena walk in first before he did. Andrew pressed the number two button the elevator control as the doors slid into themselves. It ascended and soon got to the second floor. On the second floor was another receptionist in the lobby. The lobby was beautifully furnished with luxurious furniture sets “Benvenuto in De La Castle Hotel and Suites. Welcome to De la Castle and Suites. How may I be of service today sir and Ma'am”“She has a reservation for Room 95A. We'd like to know where it is please.”“Of course. Just take your right from here and go straight down. You'll find it just before you turn at the corner”“Right. Thank you”They left, turning right and going straight down just like she had directed. Finally, they got to 95A.Andrew placed the key card

Chapter 163Buz, Buzz…The landline in her room vibrated. Elena had ignored it for the third time as she was sitting far away from where it was and was in the middle of her makeup.“Oh God!!”, She groaned, putting down her powder brush. She stood up grudgingly and went over to the side table beside her bed.“What the hell do you guys want?”“Good…morning ma'am. Am I connected to room 95A?”Elena took a deep breath.“Yess you are”“Ok ma'am, I just wanted to inform you that there'll be a complimentary breakfast buffet at the dining hall on the first floor. Serving starts from 8.00 a.m and ends at 11.00 a.m but room services are available if you want to…”“Okay. Okay. I get the message. Thank you”, she said, putting down the handset in its place. She rolled her eyes and went back to the dresser table to finish up her makeup.She picked up the mini tongs and picked a pair of eyelashes out of the pack. Clearfully, she placed the glue gun on the binding and applied it over her natural las

Chapter 164Elena alighted from the Rover, setting one foot down carefully before the other. She took her Chanel purse from her bag and handed the bag to the security guard who had got the door for her. Walking gracefully, she stepped into the towers.Her father was downstairs in the visitor's lobby waiting for her.“Hey Daddy”, she said, walking up to him, her hands out for a hug. She hugged him but he didn't return her hug. For whatever reason, he was completely engrossed in what he was doing on his phone. “Is this your office?”, She asked, looking around. The building looked more of a museum than an office or even a residential building.“And where are the other staff?”“You are late, Elena”Elena was a little taken aback. “Woah, why are you so cold?”, She said, her face immediately distraught. “You didn't even ask how exhausting my drive down here was. Ughh”, she said, rolling her eyes. She walked over to the nearest armchair and plopped down on it, setting her purse on the gla

Chapter 165Elena nodded slowly, trying not to show that she was completely at sea on what he was talking about.“Is that okay?”“Yes sir”“No problem then. Information on how you'll go about it will be communicated to you. Your father here will help fill you in on every other thing”“Okay”, Elena said, nodding in sync with her words.“Alright. I believe we have an agreement”Paolo snapped his fingers to the nearest servant in the room.The servant came hurriedly to Paolo and he whispered some instructions to the servant. The servant left and soon returned with some documents.“Here”, Mr. Salvador said, taking the papers from the servant. He signed and wrote the estimated price they'd agreed on before sliding them across to Elena.“Sign in the designated spaces provided; let's make it legal”“Umm…”“Is there a problem?”“I err…”“Oh not to worry my dear. I know you have a lawyer as a father and it's okay for you to be a bit skeptical. Your father here has already gone through everythi

Chapter 166“Shit!”, Andrew cursed. Elena was hurt and she tried to squiggle out of his grip.“Let me go”, she said in a slightly breaking voice“Calm the fuck down I said!”, Andrew shouted, spitting in her face.“Now you listen to me! You, are going to help us get Asher”“What?”“You heard me”, Andrew said, releasing his grip on her shoulders. He straightened himself up like nothing had just happened and went back to undoing the buttons of his shirt.“I don't.. I'm sorry… umm.. who?”Her father didn't respond. He just moved into the bedroom area.“Would you freaking answer me?”“Shut the hell up! Ok? I'm not going to tell you again”“I don't understand. What does Asher have to do with all this and why the hell do you need my help with him?”“Oh God. This child!”, Andrew gritted his teeth together in frustration.“Can you just freaking do what I say?”“No! I can't just do what you say, Father. I'm a lawyer's daughter. You should have known better before bringing me into this”Andrew

Chapter 167
Chapter 167Gasp!Elena woke up with a harsh shiver. Her body ached and her eyes hurt badly - a consequence of tears that had lasted too long. Her eyes squinted in the dimness of the room and she sat up on the couch, her whole body sore. She sat up, her body feeling icky since she was still in the dress she'd had on yesterday and some weird hoodie jacket that was most definitely not hers.A deep breath. Exhalation. Elena felt her head. Heavy.She stayed still for sometime, her mind a little hazy from the previous night. She couldn't quite remember how she had landed on the couch or what the events of last night even were. She rubbed her temples, trying to get the blurred images out of her mind.Suddenly, the lights came on. It was her father. “Urghhh…”, Elena groaned. She held up her hand, using her palm to shield her face from the light.“Elena, sweetie. Are you okay?”, Andrew asked, dropping the cup of coffee on the table top near him.“I'm… I'm finee”, she stuttered, her hand stre

Chapter 168
Chapter 168Asher stood on the second floor, hands folded, his expression very unhappy.“And what did you say happened here?”, Asher asked, looking at the broken pieces of shattered glass, paint and cement on the ground. “Umm…we are not really sure sir… The”“You are not sure?”The worker kept mute, feeling dumber than ever.“I asked that these windows be replaced? Why weren't they?”“They … they … they were sir”“Are these the replacements?”“No sir. We… I had the replacements done the day you instructed that they be replaced but..”“But…?”“When we came in the morning, this… this was what we met sir”Asher raised a brow. “And that is to imply?”“I..”The vibration of Asher's phone interrupted their conversation. Asher dug his phone out from his pocket to see who it was, his eyes still very much focused on the construction worker standing before him.“Hello?”“Boss. Good day Boss”“Lego?”, Asher asked, looking at his phone again.“Is everything okay? How is he?*Asher heard Lego tak

Chapter 169
Chapter 169The automatic gates rolled open as Asher long teased the control on his device. He eased the car into the compound, the gate closing behind him. Soon enough, Asher parked the car in the garage.“We are here”Asher got out first before Sofia did. He opened the back door of the SUV and helped her with some of the files.When they got to the door, the face scan verified Asher's facials and he had his fingerprint taken by the sensor. The doors opened slowly and Asher walked in, Sofia tagging behind.Asher went up the stairs with the files. He placed his right hand on the biometric scan and the doors opened. Asher went in and switched on the lights then pressed a button on the walls of the door so they stayed open.Thump!The files landed on the desk. “I have a meeting now, Sofia. I'll be downstairs. You can just set up your computer then and do whatever it is you have to do”“Oh.. urr.. okay..”, Sofia said, taking her steps stealthily.“Do you need anything?”“Urr…”“Like a d

Chapter 170
Chapter 170Asher must have controlled it from inside because when she got near the gate, it slid open without her even touching it… or so she thought. That was more or less her problem though because now, the delivery guy knew the house. And that was strange because she hadn't given direct directions to the house.“Hey”, she called out to the delivery guy. He was already getting back on his bike. He turned his head to see who was calling. Sofia waved her hands.“Yes ma'am?”“I'm the one… the one for the delivery”“You are…”“Sofia… Sofia Brown.”“Oh… I am so sorry. I hadn't seen you there”, he said. He took off his helmet and Sofia was completely taken. Damn!He ran a hand through the middle of his glossy dark hair before moving to the end of his bike so he could unpack the delivery box where her order was packaged. His muscles bulged in and out, like they were enlivened and breathing differently yet what he was doing didn't even require much effort.Sofia just stood there, struck by
