Chapter 69Hayden and Owen are inside the hospital room. “Where is my uncle?”Hayden asked immediately he saw a nurse “Mr Richard is in ward 10. You will see him there” the nurse replied and they walked away immediately. They went inside the room and pushed the door open, they saw the doctor attending to him and luckily he wasn’t hurt like they had thought. “You are here,” the doctor said with a smile on his face.“Yes, is he alright?” he asked “Of course he is but I would like to talk to you in my office,” the doctor said and walked out of the room, Hayden went with the doctor and they both went to his office.“You wanted to see me,” Hayden said as he took a seat. “Yes, it’s relating to your uncle, he had a high sugar level so he is suffering from diabetes, it will take a while for his injuries to heal and I also want you to take care of him, we know accidents are unplanned unfortunate events but it will be great if you can help him, to prevent further accidents that can cause inj

It was a concept that seemed unfathomable, yet here he was, grappling with the reality of Hayden's situation.As he stared blankly at his computer screen, Owen's thoughts raced, desperately seeking answers to the questions that plagued him.

Chapter 72Maya sat down in her office in the hospital, thinking about how things had turned out to be between her and Owen, even to the point of having sex with him. She could not deny the fact that the sex was great, but she still felt uneasy when she thought about it. She heaved a sigh as she leaned backward to rest her back on her swirling chair. Everything replayed in her head as if she were watching a movie that she had watched before. She could not get her mind off Owen, and it made her heart rave faster, as she could not help it.Hayden on the other hand, in his house, could not take his mind off Maya and planned on taking her out on a second date. He noticed the first one did not go the way he had wanted and planned to make it right this time. He paced around his room slowly, thinking of how to ask her on a date again. He heaved a sigh as he leaned against the wall, thinking how beautiful she was and how he could not wait to have her all to himself. He grinned at the thought
Chapter 73Owen sat in the living room, watching TV and laughing. His mind suddenly wandered off to the recent happening between him and Maya. He shrugged it off as he did not want to think about it. He continued to focus on the TV and suddenly, his phone started to ring, grabbing his attention. He looked through the caller ID and saw that it was his uncle. He quickly lowered the volume of the TV to pick up his call, but before he could, the call had ended, and he decided to return the call. Just as he was about to dial the number, the call came in again, and he picked up at once.“Hello, sir.” He said immediately he picked up the call and placed the phone on his ear. “How are you, Owen?” Mr. Reynolds asked, and Owen nodded his head slightly as if Mr. Reynolds could see him.“I am fine, sir, and you?” He asked him, and Mr. Reynolds cleared his throat.“I am fine. Are you home?” He asked.“Yes sir. I am home.” Owen replied as he tilted his head to watch the television. He smiled at wh
Chapter 74Owen sat in front of the television as usual, watching his movies when his phone suddenly rang. He looked at his phone to see who was calling, and he saw that it was Hayden who was calling. He wondered why Hayden was calling, but he could not place a reason. “Hello bro!” He said as he picked up the call, placing the phone on his ear.“Haven't you heard what's going on?” Hayden suddenly asked in a sharp tone, and Owen made a puzzled face at the way Hayden sounded. He took a deep breath as a million thoughts ran through his mind at once. “What's going, he managed to ask as he turned down the volume of the television to listen carefully to Hayden. “It's on the news. Martin had broken out of prison and escaped. He has not been found.” Hayden said, and Owen's eyes went wide open from shock. “How did he manage to escape?” Owen asked in a loud voice, unable to believe what he had just heard from Hayden.“There was a hit there last night, and he managed to escape. It is just be
Chapter 75Martin lay on his bunk, tapping his lap as he waited patiently for the time the cell would be opened for them to do their field activities. He turned to his cellmate and asked.“Do you know how to escape from prison?” He asked suddenly, grabbing the attention of his cellmate, who was amazed by his absurd question. He heaved a sigh before he responded.“What are you talking about?” He asked, and Martin chuckled, heaving a sigh as he stood up from the bunk and sat at the edge. “There are three basic steps to escape from prison.” He explained, and his cellmate became interested in the topic of discussion. “I don't understand you but go on.” He said as he paid full attention to what Martin was saying. Martin knew he would be interested in such a topic, and he needed a partner to help him if he was going to escape. He heaved a sigh as he began to talk. “First, you need a distraction.” He said and instantly the door of the cell opened. The officer instructed them to go out for
Chapter 76Owen dropped the files he was going through and sighed, he was tired from the day of work and he badly wanted to rest, but he had to finish what he started because his replies would be vital for the next meeting. He suddenly heard a knock on the door that jolted him from his reverie, the door was pushed open and Hayden stepped inside, the smile on his face vanished immediately after he saw the hooded expression on Hayden’s face “Is everything alright?” Owen asked and Hayden moved closer to him. “Everything is not alright, Martin escaped from the prison” he replied and Owen’s eyes widened immediately, he stood up from the seat he was sitting on and moved over to stand in front of Hayden “Martin escaped from prison? How did that happen? How was he able to escape?!” he roared and Owen shrugged. “I don’t know how that happened to Owen, but he is on the run and the policemen are currently after him, I hope they find him soon” Hayden replied and Owen clutched his head feelin
