Noah went closer to her and wrapped his hand around her waist.

Rieka snapped out of reverie.

“Have you been standing here for long?”

She asked with a shy tone.

“Not really,’’ Noah replied. He was nervous that she was going to ask where he had been but thank goodness she didn't.

“Okay, I've been thinking about a lot of things lately.”

She held his hand as they walked to the bedroom.

“Tell me all what you've been thinking about.”

“About my life. I thought I was never going to know pain or disappointment after meeting and knowing a lot of influential and wealthy people.”

Noah stared at her, “Putting trust in men is vain. They can turn their backs on you when you least expect it.”

“Sure, just like what has been happening lately. I'm thinking about relocating, and with that, I’ll start on a fresh page. I'm tired of this city. What's your take on my relocation plans?”

Rieka spilled with her voice etched with disappointment.

Silence filled the air, Noah always supported her decisions but rel

    When Kendra and Ussy were done plotting their plans, only Ussy returned to the Fullams' residence. “Where's everyone?” Ussy yelled as he walked in, “Kendra has been kidnapped. We have the grace of twenty-four hours to pay the ransom. “What? Gad grew furious. “You and Kendra left this house together, how and where did she get kidnapped?” “Calm down Gad, this is not the time for playing blame games. We'll find Kendra alive.” Senior Fullams assured. “Let's report to the police!” Jack suggested. Ussy interjected, “That'll be placing Kendra's life in danger. When the kidnappers call me again, I'll place the phone on speaker so that we'll all hear what they have to say.” “Who could be responsible for this? I won't spare the person.” Gad pouted. “Ussy, you've not explained to us how all this happened. It's been a long time since I heard about a kidnap case in this city.” Lois said with her arms folded. Ussy replied, “Everything happened so fast.” He said he and Kend

    ‘This could be us, the fifteen million in our account each can be doubled too. In total we'll have sixty million.’Kendra said inwardly.“Ussy, let's check where that man came from. We might be lucky too, our money can be doubled.”“It's gambling, don't you think?”Ussy asked with an arched brow.“I don't think so, let's try our luck first.”Ussy and Kendra made their way to the small shop.“Have your seat, you are welcome.”A woman welcomed them with a bright smile.“How much do you want to double?”“Thirty million!”Kendra hurriedly replied.The woman opened her mouth a bit and stared at the duo.“Come with me,” she uttered after a few minutes.The woman brought them to a room where a middle-aged man was seated with two huge bodyguards behind him.Upon hearing the amount they wanted to double, she knew the shop was about to hit a huge gain.“Send the money,” said the middle-aged man.Almost immediately, they confirmed the credit alert from Kendra. Ussy was still skeptical, there was

    “Show yourself then you'll see who will die first.”Noah replied coldly.The other person gave a threatening laugh and ended the call.Andy looked back but no vehicle seemed to be trailing them.“Noah, what's the next plan?”“Keep driving, we'll find a way out.”Feigning a smile, Noah replied.Soon, they saw a vehicle that was approaching in the opposite direction, there was going to be a head-on collision.“Heads down! Noah yelled.The two vehicles collided.“Come out!”A loud voice rang out.A man came out of the car with a mask on.Andy raised his seat slightly and brought four pistols that were fully loaded.He gave Noah two and held two.“No matter what, we must stay together.”Noah whispered.“I get that,” uttered Andy.“Andy, you'll reverse so fast and we find a place to take cover.”Andy ignited the car and with the screeching tires, he reversed the car.“Stop there!”The man in the mask yelled as he pulled the trigger at them.Ten men in the car came along with the man in the

    “My identity doesn't matter. If you move again, I'll pull the trigger.”Paul warned as he saw Noah drawing nigh to him.“What a joke?”Paul giggled.“Do you think you'll be able to defeat thirty armed men?”“What do you want from me?”Noah asked coldly.“You can't offer me anything. I don't want to kill you so easily. I'd like to see you tortured to death like your family had experienced.”Mentioning his family made Noah's expression darken.Paul turned back and gestured for his squad to come closer to him.He was whispering something to them.'So daft,’ Noah mumbled inwardly. It was an opportunity to get rid of some of them.He placed his hands behind him and pulled out two pistols.Next, Noah lay flat on the ground and pulled the trigger.Bang!Five of the armed men fell to the ground as bullets pierced through their chests.“Attack him!”Paul roared.Firearms were aimed at Noah but with his skill, he was able to dodge the bullets.Noticing that most of the arms were out of bullets

    Cynthia provided all Noah requested.He massaged Andy's body first. Next, he pressed Andy's ankle with the hot water and towel. Then using the needle, he pierced Andy’s ankle slightly. With Andy feeling a bit relieved, he fell asleep.Noah washed his shirt so he would be able to wear it home the next day.Soon, it was morning.“Are you sure you don't have to treat yourself too?” Cynthia glanced at Noah.“No, I'm fine. All I need now is rest.Noah replied.Cynthia smiled and replied, “Alright, if you say so.”“Take care of Andy. If he has any complaint of any such, pass it across to me immediately. Ensure he eats well and remains in this house until I say otherwise.”Noah uttered and took his leave.News about the fight that broke out in the city had spread like wildfire.However, none of the news outlets had full knowledge of what happened.“Thirty corpses were recovered from a bush behind the club along the outskirts of the city.”“Investigations are still ongoing about this tragi

    Just then, Noah arrived.When he got into the house. He saw Lois and Jack, then he greeted them.“Hi, everyone.”“Hey, Noah.”Jack said with a smile while Lois ignored his presence.Next, he went to the bedroom.“Hey, Rieka. I missed you.”“Really?”Rieka glanced at Noah. “I tried your line but it didn't connect. Were you taking care of your friend or were you in the arms of another woman?”Noah widened his eyes, “Why would I cheat on you? I guess my battery was dead by the time you called.”“I believe you,” Rieka said with no expression.“Rieka, tell me what happened. You don't look fine.”“Mhmm, could you believe Kendra masterminded her kidnap so she could get money from us?”Rieka said and explained further all the police said.“I knew something was off about that kidnap case. Just forget it and be fine.”Noah itched his nose.Just then, Noah's phone rang.The Grand Commander called.Heading towards the balcony, Noah answered the call.“Hi, grand commander.”“Hello, Noah.

    Noah returned to the room to meet Rieka.Just then, Tom Fullams, who had been out of the country, returned home.Lois glanced at Tom, “It's good to see you after a long time.”“Yeah Mom, it always feels good to be home.”Tom replied with a bright smile.Tom turned to Rieka, “I trust work is doing great.”“Yeah,” Rieka nodded.If she had told him there was a problem at work, there was nothing he could do. Or maybe he'll end up mocking her.“Later tonight, a welcome party will be happening. It was organized by my friend, Nuel, to welcome his brother who has been away for the past fifteen years.”“That's a nice idea,” Lois whispered.“Rieka, I'm inviting you to the event. You could use the medium to meet rich folks that would be helpful to you in your business.”Hearing this, Rieka made up her mind to go. By the way, her business needs all the support it could get at that time.Quickly and happily she replied, “Thank you, I'll attend the event.”“The venue is Swish Hall.”Tom said as he

    “How dare you embarrass my wife?”Noah glared at Rahama as he helped Rieka up.“You are the miserable live-in son-in-law of the Fullams. I'll teach you a lesson that you'll never forget.”Rahama was barely audible.Next, she shouted. “Bodyguards, teach him a lesson.”Rahama was the only daughter of Cyril's family. Being from a wealthy home, she was pampered and spoiled.She had bodyguards with her wherever she went.Almost immediately, two fierce-looking men rushed over immediately.At that moment, the crowd gazed to see what would happen next.They clench their fist ready to attack Noah.Noah held their clenched fist. One was to his right and the other to his left. With him being in the middle, he hit their legs simultaneously making them fall to the ground with their face hitting the floor hard.“Argh!!!”Rahama's bodyguards groaned in pain.Noah dusted his hand and went on to meet Rieka.“Are you alright?”Rieka nodded, she was dumbfounded at how he took down such fierce-looking me

    Minutes passed by and the groom was nowhere to be found.Lois covered her face in shame and cursed inwardly.‘Rieka isn’t a lucky child. Just imagine the dignitaries present at this wedding and yet the groom is not present.’‘Could it be someone is trying to humiliate my daughter?”The guests were tired and a voice rang out coldly.“Is this a scene in a movie?”Soon whispers filled the air.“We’ve been waiting for long, let’s just leave.”“The groom must have eloped.”Only the soldiers present in the hall remained calm.Just ten, they heard a blaring siren approaching.Soon, silence filled the air again.Tears were already welling in Rieka’s eyes. She bowed her head slightly in shame.A man cladded in his soldier uniform with many stars on it approached the podium and whispered to the clergyman.The man was the Grand Commander.At this point, the Grand Commander held the microphone, and happily, he said.“Today, we have two celebrations. Permit me to welcome the new Chief of Army Staf

    Noah smiled, “Sincerely, she owns a dear place in my heart.” With a serious expression, Noah asked. “Do you think getting hitched with her again is a good idea?”Andy nodded. “Of course, she’s the only woman you’ve ever loved.”“Okay! Let’s have a quiet walk then.”Meanwhile, at the Fullams’ residence.“Can’t you talk sense to your daughter? Is this how she wants to end her life?”Lois uttered coldly as she looked at Jack.Jack tilted his head.“It is her life; her choice and I cannot influence her decision because you want me to.”Lois widened her lips and asked. “Are you serious?”Coldly, Rieka said. “Mom, I have a lot to deal with. What is all this about?”“If you wait from now till infinity, Noah will not welcome you into his life. Beauty fades, you have to give another man a chance. I’ve spoken to some rich folks and they all agreed to get married to you not minding that you are a divorcee.”After saying that, Lois angrily left.Rieka stared at the space. Thoughts of Noah grippe

    “What?”Santos expressed and gave a mocking laugh. “Who do you think you are?”Just then, he pulled out a gun and pointed it at Noah.Andy and Giddy also pulled out their guns and pointed at Santos.“I have nothing against you. I can see your greed and selfish interest is what is making you want the position of the Chief of Army staff at all cost.”Slowly, Noah approached Santos.“One more step and I’ll pull the trigger.” Santos roared.Noah sighed and he took another step. Bang!Santos pulled the trigger.Swiftly, Noah dodged it.Thank goodness no one was standing behind him.“All that happened here has been recorded. It would be used against you. You are not even worthy to be called a soldier.”Noah uttered with a frown.“Against me? We’ll see about that.”Santos said confidently.“No matter what, being soldiers, we are one,” Noah said as his eyes scanned through everyone present. For no just cause, Santos Junek wants to get rid of me. From his action, you all can see that he is n

    At that moment, Santos picked up his phone and placed a call.“Hi Santos, is anything the matter? You hardly call me.”“Jacob, I can see you know me well. We need to meet tonight, it's urgent.”Jacob was a high-ranked soldier and he was a member of the military council.All along, Jacob has been the one giving information to Santos about all that was happening because Santos handsomely rewarded him. Jacob was also a close friend of the former Chief of Army Staff.Now, he felt something was happening and he couldn’t figure it out. He had to hear from Jacob.Nevertheless, Jacob had assured him that he would become the next Chief of Army staff.Meanwhile, at the Supreme Ruler’s residence in the military base.Noah, Andy, and Giddy were standing.Noah rubbed his forehead and said, “This is more complicated than I had imagined. I don’t want to get rid of anyone but I can’t help but defend myself.”“I have a suggestion.” Giddy paused. Then he continued, “Let us visit Santos. Not to harm him

    Noah glanced at the Grand Commander. The news about who will become the next Chief of Army was yet to be announced publicly.“I have an urgent assignment to do here and it has to be kept a secret. Apart from all of us here, who witnessed my arrival, no one must know that I have returned.”Noah was led to a large room. It was the Supreme Ruler’s room in Fristico.Ever since Noah left, no one had dwelled in the room. However, the maids always kept it tidied daily.Noah freshened up and sat on the couch as he stared at the space.Knock, Knock, Knock.Some knocked on the door.Noah had already made it clear that he wanted to be left alone till he said otherwise.Who then was knocking on the door?With a frown, Noah went to open the door.Noah welcomed a man and a woman in.“You, so you had plans of coming too. Why didn’t you just say it? Did you have to make it a surprise?”Noah said with a smile beaming on his face.“I had to come along with her. We can’t just leave you. You need us mor

    “Santos Junek?” Lois replied with a smile.“I have never heard of that name before. Why will he take interest in me without approaching me for once?” Rieka said with an arched brow.Lois sighed, “It’s possible you’ve not been paying attention to other men because of Noah. He gave me his card so anytime you are ready to see him, it is just a call away. I also heard he is a military man. From the convoy I saw accompanying him, I can confidently say he is far richer than Noah. Getting hitched with him will make Noah regret ever treating you in this manner.”“Hmm!” Rieka reasoned with what Lois said. A thought of revenge crept into her heart.Why was Rieka having such thoughts? Having a relationship with someone wasn’t by force.“Give me his card, I’ll call him. I want to get some information from him.”Rieka asked politely.Lois picked a card that was on the table and handed it to Rieka.So fast, Rieka picked up her phone and called the number which was on the card.“Hi, It’s Rieka.

    Noah felt getting hitched with Rieka would complicate things further especially for her.Noah looked at Rieka and said, “I have to leave now.”With a smile filled with pretense, Rieka nodded.Noah and Andy left.At the Supreme Villa.Noah was resting when the doorbell rang.Andy answered the door.“Welcome! To what do we owe this visit.”Andy said to a man who was fully clad in a military uniform.The man walked with Andy following behind him.“Have a seat,” Noah said.The grand commander took his seat and stared at Noah.Due to his influence, the grand commander was aware of what transpired over the night.“Noah, you went on that mission without seeking my assistance.”The grand commander said with an arched brow.Noah smiled. “I did not want to disturb you, you were busy. You gave me the information I needed and that’s enough.”“That’s not the main reason why I’m here.” The grand commander cleared his throat.“Hmm, why are you here then?” Noah asked curiously.The grand commander e

    Coldly, Dex replied. “I am Dex Grichy. You murdered my father and my aunt. Do you think you will be able to escape death now? I wanted it to be so peaceful but you complicated everything by killing our men.” “A member of the Grichys family?”Noah shook his head. With an indifferent tone, Noah said, “They all deserved to die. They paid for their actions. Why didn’t you come for me directly? Why did you have to involve Rieka in all this?”Mockingly, Dex said.“Noah, you are not remorseful. Well, I’d like to see what you can do when your legs are no longer active.”Dex pulled a dagger out and raised the gun he was holding. Then he said,“Choose your death.”Noah kept quiet.“Can’t you talk? Should I decide for you?”Inwardly, Noah was devising how he was going to get rid of Dex without Rieka getting hurt.Finally, Noah spoke.“I don’t want to know why you are doing all this. However, I promise that I’ll obey you as long you don’t kill her.”Dex nodded, “I won’t hurt her. By the way, she

    After some minutes of discussion, they made their way to the entrance of the warehouse. They ensured their boots didn’t make any noise that would draw attention to them.Jenny said with a low voice. “This is the only gate that leads us in. However, there might be other access points known by the people who work here.”Clack! Clack!Soon, they heard the sounds of boots walking about. They were from the men who were watching over the warehouse.With the help of Andy, they swiftly passed through the gates without making a sound.With a low tone, Noah said. “Let’s split into two. Some will follow me to the left while others will follow Andy and Jenny to the right.”So, fast they did that.“Ahh,” one of Jenny’s squad members yelled. She had hit her leg against a stone which made her fall. She was with Noah alongside six others.“Who is that?”A voice rang out as they heard footsteps approaching in their direction.Noah quickly lifted her.Shuu!Noah gestured as he placed his hands on his
