Henry took a deep breath before calling the real person he intended to speak to, his grandfather had given him many hints, and he would be lying to himself if he said he didn't understand. He wouldn't risk her being with another. Now, with that being said, he dialed her number, hoping that she wasn't asleep.

He sighed when it connected," Hey, sorry to call this late.” He began politely when she picked up. “Did I wake you?” He asked. He heard the sound of rustling in the background and a little squeak which made him know that he woke her from sleep.

Clara rubbed the back of her palms over her eyes before replying," No, sir. I was awake.” She lied so that she wouldn't end the call. “How are you doing, sir?” She inquired. She also wanted to hear his voice.

Henry nodded, forgetting that she couldn't see him. Her groggy voice did him in. It was unintentionally seductive, and that was why he groaned. “ Oh, I'm good. I've settled in. Didn't Pops tell you?” He asked. He didn't want her fuss

    The next message he received was from an unknown number, “You've made her hospitalized, haven't you, and you are now in hiding. Why didn't you tell her that you weren't interested in the beginning?” The message read. He knew the person from the tone of the message and decided to ignore, but on second thought, he opened his text pad and began to type. “ I'm highly sorry about what happened, but I assure you that she will be fine, sir.” He replied. “I have no words for you.” Ben fired back. It wasn't his fault that his daughter decided to entangle with a man from the hood. He would surely land her in trouble. Now she was busy fighting for her life in the hospital. “ I don't want to see you near my daughter. If I do, I will kill you.” He said. He knew that Henry was going to play the caring card. It would have even been better if he liked her. “I can't promise you that, sir.” Henry replied boldly. It wasn't as if he wanted to disobey, but his conscience wouldn't allow him to rest whe

    “ You can't browbeat me into doing your will, Ben. Air your grievances and leave my grandson the hell alone.” Pops challenged him.Ben chuckled," Is this what a threat is supposed to sound like? You knew that your grandson had a poster on his back, yet you allowed my daughter to continue following him about. Now that she can no longer function well, you are pretending to be caring. Caring my foot.” He hissed. Pops sighed," It was between the children. How would we have known that she was going to be shot that night? If she had not left angrily, she would still be in good shape!” Pops replied angrily. He was tired of Ben playing the victim around town. This was a logical situation, he would understand if he was angry, that's what every father would be. “ You see, Ben. Let's put our grievances aside and look for the best way to make sure that Aubrey is well. After that, my son doesn't have to come in contact with her again.” Pops proposed. “ Good. I've heard you.”Pops paused, the Be

    Aubrey pointed at the door weakly and moved her hand again, she couldn't speak, but her eyes were filled with fury and Grandpa turned, she had many things to say to Henry and none of them were nice. She wanted to scream, but had to swallow it. “ What are you doing here, son? I thought you've been warned not to come here. Do you care so little about your life?” “ No, sir. I was in the neighborhood, so I decided to pop in.” Henry lied. He wanted to see how she was faring. His conscience ate him up when he thought of what wouldn't have happened if he made up his mind very early.“ I apologise for causing you pain.” He apologized. Aubrey looked a mess, she couldn't even lift her jaw because of the latest surgery that was conducted. Gone was the prim and proper woman, it was replaced by a woman who was a shadow of herself. “ I'm sorry that you had to go through this by associating with me.” He apologized again. Although, no one knew that stuff like this could happen. “Your life will no

    The man straightened in his seat," How much will I receive?” He asked while staring at Henry. Henry didn't know what to say when he finished speaking because his grandfather was not aware of all the happenings. Therefore he couldn't call any amount. He was not eligible to withdraw any huge amount. “ Ten thousand dollars?” The man threw his head back and laughed at Henry to scorn, and Henry recoiled in his seat at the chilly laughter. “ Get out of my office right now. Don't bring this simpleton back.”He told Douglas, who rolled his eyes. Henry looked at Douglas, trying to understand his offense. “ Don't get too angry.” Douglas said. “ How dare he underprice my services? Does he think that I am one of those hungry fools?” 'Well, it wasn't my idea to come here.' Henry thought as he watched the man stroke his beard. “ If you will just name your price, then we would be able to conclude. What do you think?” Douglas asked with a frustrated tone, before smiling at him. “I'm not inte

    “ Tell us what?” Henry replied, his heart already raving, different possibilities filled his head as to why Derek could be behaving this way. “My father is dead,” Derek said in a dejected tone. Henry felt chills all over his body after the announcement. “ Tell me you are joking!” He exclaimed and shook his head when he saw the forlorn look on Derek's face. This was not a joking matter. “ How did it happen? You said that it was a nick in his leg and that he was returning home soon, tomorrow, right?” He looked toward Douglas. “ You knew already?” He asked when he didn't see astonishment on his face. “ We were together throughout…" Henry trailed off. Not once did he see Douglas press his phone. “I think you are a high-profile target, thus making everyone around you unsafe.” Derek said with a serious tone.“ So, what will happen now?” Henry asked, watching a look cross their faces. “ Do you want me to move out?” He helped them out when they refused to speak.“ No, we just have to be

    “ He's finally in our custody. Pay a hundred million dollars and I will let your precious son live.” A strange voice said.Henry heard the voice echoing loudly from his subconscious and he tried to open his eyes to no avail. As if the person knew his wish, a rude slap landed on his face and he opened his eyes immediately, jolting to the present. “ Good morning, big boy.” A man said. Henry's eyes were still finding it challenging to attend the party, his haze flickered through the room as he tried to understand what was going on.A bowl of water was dumped on his head and he jumped from the cold. It was then he noticed that he was stripped half naked. Henry wiped his face with the back of his hand to remove the excess water. Then he saw a masked man. A gust of wind blew into the room where he was sitting, and he looked in the direction. From the look of things, they were in a high-rise building which was without windows and doors, he could see the numerous buildings which were lik

    “ That man is one of the most dangerous terrorists alive. They have a caucus.” Caine said when he arrived at Pops' office the next morning. “ So, what do we do? Who could have contracted him?” “ That I don't know. These people have a way of doing things. It must be a well-connected person. Do you know anyone who would fit this profile?” Caine inquired. Pops shook his head," No, I can't think of anyone right now?”Caine brought out a book," His threats are valid. He'll follow through with them, so I'll only watch from the sidelines.” He said. He had a family who still needed him to be alive. If it were a lease criminal, he would have damned the consequences to follow up on this case. “ So, I'm on my own henceforth?” Pops asked. Caine was one of the best detectives in the country, so if he was behaving this way, that shows how complicated this case was. “ Yes and no, watching from the sidelines means that I would not be actively involved in this case, but I have a partner who is mo

    Was that a trick question? Clara thought. “ I don't understand what you mean.” She replied while the men watched her. She fidgeted in one spot as their gazes remained unwavering. “ It's a simple question, Clara.” Daniel prod. Pops watched his future daughter-in-law, if things went well, fidget in one spot, she was confused and didn't know what to say. “ She doesn't need to answer that.” He came to her rescue and she sighed in relief. “Your boss needs your help to be free from the kidnappers. Are you ready to help him?” Daniel asked.“In what way?” Clara responded as she looked at the three men in the room. She wasn't a field agent, neither did she have any background knowledge of handling any cases. “There will be a ball soon. I need you to seduce a man called B.” Daniel pulled out his phone and showed her a tall man, and she looked at them in horror. He was wearing a mask, no one could identify him," Uh, who is he?” She asked in horror, wondering how they expected her to follow

    A year After."What is going on?" He inquired worriedly when he saw Clara bent over a toilet seat, heaving her lungs out. Panic settled inside him and he patted her back softly. What can I get you?" He asked her and she sat on the tiles."I feel queasy." She said and before she could finish talking, she puked again inside the toilet. "Please get me a tissue." She croaked and stretched her hand backward. That was what she needed.Henry sighed softly as he wiped her mouth for her. "You need to see a doctor, this cannot be ordinary flu." He said and she rinsed her mouth."I think so too. I don't know what is happening to me but I don't feel well inside of me." Like a lightbulb, an idea flashed into his head and he stared at her with wide eyes, and she stared at him strangely." what?" "Are you pregnant?" "What?" She repeated and Henry placed a hand on her shoulders. " Have you been feeling weak? Tenderness in the boobs? Diarrhea and constant headache?" He inquired." Yeah?""I think..

    CHAPTER 191: Epilogue

    The flight back to Italy was very quick, maybe it was due to the fact that they didn't have anything bothering them anymore, no need to look over their shoulder for every little matter. Henry was very elated to see the soils of Italy.It made him appreciate freedom. He never knew that he was living like a king even when he was poor but with the small taste of money and the problems that accompanied it, he was able to appreciate being free.Clara rested her head on his shoulder as she stared at the soil. It was good to go home. " How do you feel?" She inquired from him and he smiled at her."I feel good, great, even. Who would have thought that I would miss this place? There was a time I was crazy about leaving the country, now that I know better I know that I was foolish at that time. What the hell was I even thinking at that period? He wondered aloud.Clara giggled beside him, it was amazing how he was able to see things from a grander scope. "I think there are several reasons that w

I don't know what is wrong with me." She chuckled while trying to wipe the tears off her face.Henry rose slowly and held her up. It wasn't so great of an event. She was bawling her eyes out. " Hey, it's okay, I'm free now. You don't need to cry." He said, trying to pacify her and she nodded softly.She moved away so that she could allow the grandfather and son to bond comfortably. Stopping them was not the best thing that she could do because she was feeling a certain type of way. His gaze fell upon his grandfather and he didn't know when he began to weep gently. It was almost as though he was feeling weak and at the same time unable to breathe. "I'm so happy to see you son." He said and held him very close to himself. "Me too, Pops." He said and held him close. His pops had been there for him for a very long time an

    CHAPTER 189: Henry was Released

    The court room went silent and Henry stared at the man who just came to lie without a tangible reason. His eyes rested on him and he tried to figure out where he knew him from to no avail . It was as though the man had harbored grievances against him and sought the perfect time to unleash his vengeance. He was stupefied." I take objection to that statement. If there's CCTV footage, produce it so that we can all watch it." Henry's lawyer said and he stared at the wicked man who was standing before him. it was obvious that he was just trying to ruin Henry's life."I came with proof if that's what you are asking for." He said confidently and Henry was pissed beyond measure. He didn't know this man from Adam but he was hell bent on tarnishing his image. " Lets have it." The judge called again and it was given to him. The assistant slotted it in and connected it to the projector and they all watched the scene."Pause it there." The judge said and adjusted his glasses." A hush fell ove

    CHAPTER 188: Supreme Court

    After spending a great deal of time trying to make sure that there was no need to continue staying in the hospital, they went to court. Pops pulled some strings on some of his old people who knew what was going on, he was probably thinking about what would have happened if he didn't have such a strong backbone. He didn't even want to imagine it because it would be so brutal. Anyway, it was going to be great if he could actually do without the court order Alas, there was no one above the law. He stood before the judge at the supreme court with his lawyer in front of him. The complainant also stood at the opposite dock. It was a woman, she was claiming that her husband was killed."Mr. Henry, What do you have to say concerning the defendant's claim?" Henry looked at the judge and the sobbing woman. As much as he pitied her, he couldn't help but feel that she was doing a tad bit too much. "I didn't kill her husband, my honor. It was out of self defense. He tried to kill me, whoever has

It was heartbreaking and at the same time she had to maintain a good front because Pops was in the room, staring at her. "That's great to hear. I thought that he was actually harmed. It's good to hear that he's well. Thank you Caine." She mustered a fake smile and Caine stared at his phone as if there was an alien living in it. Wasn't she the person who was angry a few minutes ago that things were hidden away from her? Yet she was telling him thank you. "Good. I'll talk to you later." He said and she nodded before hanging up abruptly and turned to see Pops staring at her. He wasn't talking at the moment but his eyes spoke volumes. He was probably thinking about what was happening to his grandson."Pops, what would you like to eat?" She asked him as she moved closer to his bed to stroke his hands.He shook his head slightly and she

He was sure that they would take him to his doorstep. All he needed was to take a bath first then right after he could now start thinking about other things but for now, he would have preferred just staying away and waiting till there was nothing else to do. "That man is scarred. I don't think we should have let him go just like that. We know that he needed the money. He was just acting so that it didn't seem that way." Fred spoke from the rearview mirror.Caine nodded in agreement. He had other plans for the man but from experience he had known better than to allow anyone to come close to the family because it could be very frustrating if the person didn't know what was going on. It was more of a preservation. No one wanted to be involved with people th

Liam asked as his eyes casually strolled from the intruders to Henry.Henry sighed and balled his fists which were already losing sensitivity due to the excessive amount of blood. "Don't go all macho on him. You can call him my brother from another mother, he's been there even from the beginning of this issue." Liam's eyes narrowed in suspicion as he stared at the man in front of him. He couldn't remember where he knew him from but from the way he was behaving he knew that he was someone of great importance.Caine glanced at Fred before his eyes swung toward Liam and Ryan. This was somewhat a complicated issue because if it was left to him, he would have locked this man up. But with the situation at hand. It sounded unwise because this ma

Liam jumped up immediately and pulled the trigger at Ryan causing him to stumble and almost hit the ground.George, sensing potential freedom, rose from his position and bundled towards Ryan who was rubbing his sore legs. It was a double bullet. He didn't wait till he recovered before falling atop him. Ryan was utterly shocked when he saw that the tables had turned. "Get off me, you oaf." He grunted from beneath George and tried to shake him off but found it hard to do that so he bit him.George, who was stubborn, persisted in making sure that he didn't leave.Henry also joined the party by knocking the gun out of his hands. Ryan was pretty helpless at this point, he bit George on the hand again, this time almost removing the chunk of flesh that surrounded his hand but George made sure that h
