CHAPTER HUNDRED AND TWENTY NINE Maria had left and it was just Jake and Kate in their room. He sat on one of the couches deep in thought while she sat at the edge of the bed, cautiously observing him. He had been acting weird since he returned and she had wanted to ask if something was wrong but she couldn't muster the courage to do so. She tried to remember if she had offended him in any way before he left, but she couldn't come up with anything. They were cool before his disappearance and now, he was acting all cold and it troubled her. On the other hand, Jake was patiently waiting for Kate to fall asleep so he could call his mum to ask about any new developments. They were on tenterhooks as they were sure that Mario's accomplices would likely retaliate if they found out he had been kidnapped. He didn't want to leave his mum alone in the middle of all this, but Maria and Kate were close to finding out his location and the only way to stop them would be to show his face to them,

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY Mario opened his eyes with a groan as he was not surprised to see himself in a totally different room. He remembered the guards come in and that was the last thing he could recall. He tried to move his hands with the feeling that it might have been tied up but he was surprised to see that it wasn't. He took a look around the room he was in, and it looked a little bit familiar to him. He tried to recall when he came here, but his brain failed him. He looked out the window and he could see that the house was situated in the middle of the woods, more like middle of nowhere. It was a two storey building, probably an abandoned house. He stood up from the floor as he made his way to the door. He twisted the doorknob and the door became ajar. He wrinkled his brows as he didn't understand what sort of game they were playing with him. He went back into the room and looked for a sharp object to take with him. He saw a screwdriver by the side of the be

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY ONE He had been here for probably a day and he hadn't seen or heard from anyone. He didn't know who had him kidnapped but he could take a wild guess. He knew it was Owen, it seemed he was tired of hiding under skirts and he was now ready to have his revenge against him. He didn't even know how he got here in the first place. He was on his way to his company, next thing, their car crashed into another and that was the last thing he remembered. He woke up to see himself here, and since then, he hadn't met or seen anyone. He knew news would have gotten to his mother already and she would be on the lookout for him, it was only a matter of time before she finds him, that he was sure of, but he couldn't take his chances, not with his life. He felt as if he was being watched, he was both scared and wary but he didn't want to show it so he tried to maintain his composure. The room was dark and it had this eerie feeling of impending doom, he felt uneasy

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY TWO Maria had just finished speaking with Kate on the phone, she had managed to calm her down after some time and now, she knew she had to do something. She dialed Esme's number and it didn't go through at first, she sighed before trying again and it went through the second time, she was relieved. “Good evening Esme, hope I'm not disturbing?” Maria asked and Esme replied “No you're not, I was even having trouble sleeping, I could use the company” Esme lied through her teeth “You're having trouble sleeping, why?” Maria asked, trying to act concerned even though she was not interested in whatever it was. “Well, stuff and stuffs “ she chuckled lightly “But I do not think you actually called to know if I was asleep or not, so what's it? Why did you call?” Esme asked and Maria took that as a cue to stop asking questions and go straight to business. “Uhmm, Is Jake with you?” Maria asked and Esme smiled. She knew that was the reason why she

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY THREE Owen rolled on his back with a sigh. He opened his eyes to see the tiny rays of sun filtering into the room from the side of the curtains. He turned to look at Rina who was still sleeping soundly by his side. He smiled after a while, she looked like a kid when she was asleep. He brought his legs down from the bed and on the bed table, he picked up his phone to look at the time. He was surprised to see that it was just a few minutes past seven. He thought he would oversleep due to the tiredness from yesterday's event and the time he went to bed. It seemed his body was already used to waking up early. He walked straight into the bathroom, brushed his teeth and took his bathe. He came out of the bathroom clad in only his waist towel and he had a brush in his hand. He could have brushed his hair in the bathroom but he decided to do it out here. “Good morning” he heard from the side and he turned to see Rina sitting at the edge of the bed. He

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FOUR Owen sat on one of the couches in the sitting room as he waited for Tamara to come in. He had asked one of the guards to ask the others to let her in and for about twenty minutes he had been waiting but there was no sign of her. He shook his head in exasperation as he got up from the couch and headed to the door. Halfway to the door, he heard noise outside the house and he sighed. He placed a call to his head guard and the man picked up almost immediately. It seemed as if he had been waiting for his call. “Greetings boss” the man greeted “What's going on at the gate?” Owen asked, not caring to return his greeting “Uhmm it's the woman at the gate, she's refusing to go in without her guards and I've told her countlessly that she can't go in with all those armed men” the man replied and Owen let out a deep breath. With the way she came with all those men, he already knew something was wrong. The fact that she was requesting to talk to hi

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE "Careful there” Owen told the man who held her hand. They had just come out of the hospital after the consultation with the doctor. He still had the bandage on his head but he was less concerned about it. He just didn't want to see his wife or his child harmed. Rina smiled when she heard the concern in his voice, she couldn't expect such love and care from someone she had actually betrayed in a sense. He still acted cool with her even after he found out everything. If she had known that he would act this way, then she would have told him since, now she was just left with what ifs, but she was happy it wasn't regrets. A win's a win. Now, she just had to stay strong and make his dream come true for him. She was still strong enough to walk and work, but he just didn't want to take chances with her and the baby's life. She had thought he was acting all possessive, but she had just come to see this side of him. He was possessive as hell and she l

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY SIXAlthough he felt that might have been a presentation to gain his trust again, but his heart had always been soft and this heart of his, he always followed. He wouldn't sit by and allow past experiences to change his perspective of things, or sit by and allow those not a o good memories stop him from creating new ones. He was ready to start afresh with her if she was willing to start afresh with him too. They drove for a while and the driver finally pulled up. Rina raised her hard from his chest to look out and she could see they were outside her mother's house. She cleaned her clammy palms on her gown and she bit her fingers. “Are you ready?” Owen asked when he saw the way she looked at her fingers nervously. She took two deep sighs before nodding “Yeah, I am” she replied and Owen and the driver shared looks before the man horned. In no time, the gate was opened and they were let in without further ado. They parked the car at a decent pos
