Clara immediately hid her bags and bowed her head in regret after seeing that man."How have you been doing? I can see that you are looking good. Guess you haven't finished spending my money?" He chuckled."See, I don't have time for this nonsense. That was my past and I have no intention of going back there. Excuse me please" Clara, after finding enough courage , said and was about to leave when the guy pulled her back."You might not know but I'm now in the US Military. I haven't thought of coming to you but seeing you now, I think I suddenly need my money back. I watched your videos on the internet and thought you would have been poor but I guess that I'm wrong , you are still looking good for someone that is broke. Suddenly, I feel the urge to collect my money right now. When are you going to pay me back?" The man, Carl asked Clara "Carl, I don't have time for an argument. I'm currently in a state of distress and trust me, I don't have time to give you right now! Make way and le
Without wasting another time, Francis's corpse was set to be buried. Felix, Sofia and others were all wearing black dresses at the cemetery. Felix allowed the tears to flow freely as the casket was laid underground Sofia caressed his hand softly, trying to console him but it was hard."I couldn't look into his burnt face. Had I known that he would be leaving soon, I would have been a good son and heed to his warnings. Now, he is no more and I'm already missing him" he murmured."Had I been a good son, he would have still been alive. My stubbornness added to his early death" he added"You don't need to blame yourself. There was no camera near where he died and it was already concluded to be an accident. If it's an accident, then you have no blame "Sofia said those soothing words for him to be comforted."He didn't have an accident. He was killed! Yes! I know he would be killed since Cindy has drawn the battle line, all because of me. I just didn't know that it would be this early " he
#Flashback#"I need your help. Cindy has given me the go ahead to kill my father and an ultimatum of a few hours was given. I'll carry the operation this evening along with my guys. That was the time he did leave the bar to go home. There is a corner after the hallway, he was known to always pass the route and there was no surveillance camera there. Make sure you let your guys stay around the place by 4pm and rescue my father. Together, we can bring Cindy's down" Angela informed Adam at the phone booth."Noted. We will make sure to rescue your father" Adam assured.***At the Accident Scene. After Angela Collided her car with Francis's car and poured fuel on that car. She sighted two guys some meters away, hiding on top of the tree. She knew they were sent by Prince Adam and intentionally made their appearance obvious to assure her that her father would be saved.To divert her guys attention, she hurriedly left the scene and started driving home, not until those guys reminded her to
Clara sat beside her mother in the hospital. It's been an hour since the surgery and she is yet to regain her consciousness. Clara was worried, even after the doctors assured her that the surgery was successful and her mother was going to be alright. She still couldn't think of losing her mother. She sat beside her, not knowing what was going on outside the hospital.Suddenly, she saw her mother moving her finger and she was glad She wanted to scream her name badly but had to calm down and anticipate her waking up.After what seemed like forever, not only did Ava lift her hand but she also opened her two eyes."Mom, are you awake? Mom, can you see me? Are you awake? Can you hear me? Do you want anything? Let me call the doctor to inform them that you are awake" she dashed out of the hospital ward to call the doctor's attention.Two of them followed her back then checked on Ava. One was a resident doctor and the other one was an intern.After checking her for a few minutes and seriou
Sitting beside her mother and looking helplessly. Her phone started ringing. It was a strange number but she picked it almost immediately."Hello" she greeted"Have you gathered my money?" Came Carl's voice.She was shocked because she changed her contact information after breaking up with Carl at school.She wondered where he got her phone number and wanted to disconnect the call when she heard a tiny voice underneath."Daddy" the little child called happily.Clara could feel her heart pounding harder as she heard the voice of the child "Carl, i-is that my child?" She miraculously found her voice and asked."I'll talk to you later, better find my money before then" he answered then hung up the call."Who is that and what child are you talking about?" Ava asked, curious to know what was happening."It's Carl. We somehow met a few days ago and he is now talking about his money. I heard a tiny voice underneath and thought it belonged to my child" she replied."Carl? The guy that you sw
Laying down beside him with her head placed on his arm. Karina couldn't close her eyes, trying so hard to recall her connecting with Lucas.Adam noticed her restless. It is unusual for Karina not to fall asleep while sleeping on his arm except something was bothering her mind."Babe," Adam called, planting a small kiss on her forehead."Hun" she answered."Are you still thinking about the man?' he questioned"Sure, I don't know the part of my memory that is missing. Who knows? He might be my uncle or my mother's friend " she answered."What about your father? You have never mentioned anything that related to your father and I doubt if you have ever met him alive but knowing you have a younger sister of the same blood, then you met him alive. What if he is your father?" He further questioned.The question got Karina. She suddenly stood up She has never thought about it "You said there are his pictures in your house and your mother always stared at them. Don't you have any memories of
"Did you do anything wrong? Why are you shaking? Tell me, what happened?" Ava bombarded her daughter with questions upon seeing her reaction."Mom, I'm doomed. Not only am I doomed but we are both doomed. My helper has been arrested. Not only was she arrested for trafficking but also murdering, which means her probability of escaping this trial is very slim. Mom, she is my only hope of coming out of this poverty. She made some promises that I have been hanging onto. I am even scared of getting dragged with her if someone figures out that I've met her twice" she explained, still in shock and checking the pictures again, hoping she was the one hallucinating."What do you want us to do now? Maybe you should come clean to Adam to avoid getting dragged with you" Ava suggested."I'm sure I'll lose my head if I do that. It's a grave sin that I won't dare open my mouth to tell another person. I just need to find a lie to cover up whenever I am summoned for questioning but I really wished that
"Doctor! Doctor!" Lucas screamed and ran out to call the doctor's attention.The man rushed inside with two of his nurses and the nurses gestured to the family to excuse them while the Doctor was attending to Karina's mother.Kayla was already on the ground, sobbing and hoping their mother would be fine.Karina and Lucas were also lost in their own thoughts, making it difficult to console each other."She opened her eyes for the first time. She pulled it to this level and I'm sure that she is gonna pull it out. She will be fine for us, yes! She will" Lucas Keith murmuring, giving himself some new hopes.After a while, The doctor came out with giggles noticeable from his lips.They all rushed to meet him for the update of her health."What happened to mom? Can I see her?""Is she going to be okay? She opened her eyes right? I saw her opening her eyes?""Why is she gasping for air when she is on oxygen? Don't tell me that something will happen to my mom" They Kept bombarding the doctor
