Two weeks later, After Antonio's departure, Sophie was no longer herself. She jumped at every noise and always had a feeling that something was wrong somewhere, if she couldn't speak, she would rather look.It affected her and even one of her neighbors complained about it because they had known her for quite some time and she was always cheerful.A few neighbors had soon begun to gossip about her that she might be facing a bit of withdrawal symptoms since both men in her life had problems. She was also beginning to believe what they were saying because it explained why suddenly things were beginning and going downhill for her. She no longer had peace of mind and all she could think about was death.She had jolted awake in fear. She was beginning to look lean for the fear of being killed on her way to work. She decided to pay a visit to Leonard, she didn't know what to classify it as. She didn't know whether to call it remorse or guilt or even shame, all that she knew was that she wa
Many days passed and Leonard was busy having the time of his life not because he was enjoying it but because he had been made to be the head of the prison even above his prison boss which made him free from a lot of many things that could have disturbed him.Instead, he used that time to make sure that he thought about how to go about Antonio's case, it was a very delicate issue and the controller had agreed that he would not act like he knew him from anywhere because that could breed contempt between each of the prisoners and he would rather worry about something else than incur people's wrath in the person.As he was sitting gently one day, he heard his name called again and he groaned. He was tired of being visited except for the people who mattered. "You have a visitor." The rest inmates began to grumble but kept quiet the instant they heard that there was a growl coming from the former prison boss. They knew that if it came to things like negotiation skills with the prisoners,
Leonard wore an expressionless mask as he stared at her. Yet a myriad of emotions filled his heart. So they didn't have the same mother. He would have sworn that they did. This was Al coming together, no wonder Antonio hated his guts but why hadn't his mother ever shown face for once since all the incidents that had been happening?These thoughts made him think of what next to do. He wouldn't want to jump into anything that he wasn't sure of it was better that one knew what he was doing so that one didn't fall into a ditch when trying to save someone or something. it was just the best thing to do to save one's life."If you would be clearer in your explanation, maybe just maybe I would really understand and finally know what to do and how to help you." He spoke.She sighed tiredly when she heard the words because she knew that it wasn't supposed to happen at least not by her and after everything that Leonard's father did for her. "Please I don't want you to take this the wrong way...
A question dropped in his mind as he looked at the woman across his desk. "Why did you decide to tell me this? Why did you wait all these years before finally telling me?" She bowed her head in guilt. " I can't say anything else except for the fact that I'm sorry. I made a terrible mistake that I wished I didn't do. It was just simply naivety and stupidity that made me not reach out. Also, I was saddled with fear and I didn't want to be convicted. I was so glad when I heard you survived" Leonard didn't buy that act but he would let her think that he did so that he didn't expose himself to too much stress when he could just be chilled about it. "I don't know what to say about this. Why do I feel like it's not the whole truth? Before we even go further I'd like to ask what's your name?" "Daisy." "Daisy?" "Yeah, Daisy Callaghan. That's my name." She replied and Leo stared at her for a long period of time as he tried to understand her intentions. He was not completely pleased with t
The whole prison was shaking when they heard his voice, it was such a worthy fight because this man had been bragging for a very long time that he had been powerful.Leonard raised his fists in warning."This is to tell you that you should never in your entire life try this rubbish with me, the next time that you make me think about you, I promise you we won't be having this conversation!" He yelled when he heard the door rattle open. He was beyond pissed and this man here was doing his best to compound it. He was not going to make any move because he didn't know what else to expect from the group of people that threatened to be in his space."Everyone return to your cells," Silas ordered and they obeyed with a lot of grudging at the side but they still didn't have a choice but to obey him.He was thinking about what just happened. Why was Leonard fighting? It was very unusual of him. He glanced at Leonard's opponent. "Take him to the hospital, why the hell are you guys still standin
Antonio paced through the balcony after he had received a call from his agent that Sophie had once escaped death. How the hell did they allow her to survive, she was no cat without furs. There was nothing holding her back from being dead.Maybe he should just go to her house and shoot her dead? After all, no one would know. He shook his head to get rid of the thoughts that infiltrated his head. He was thinking about all the things that he was supposed to get and right now, he didn't have anything much to say other than the fact that he was going to find a better solutionHe picked up his phone and called Rufus, his new PA. He was more effective than Joyce who he had heard was now working with Emma. That was a story for another day because he saw no reason why she was thinking that she could begin any venture in this area and succeed. He was ready to thwart every form of competition. He was just going to wait for a long time before finally making his plans. There was something else t
The amount of people that told her that she didn't need to worry about anything in her life was too much but she still felt herself being afraid of asking Emma anything especially when she knew how she was feeling. " I'm sorry if that's a bad idea. I don't know what I was thinking. We should leave." Emma drew her back and smiled at her reassuringly. " Well, I don't know, it's just too much for me to handle sometimes but I'm getting better. Now, we can't go today because it's not visiting hours already and we need to also get a lawyer to accompany us. I have been feeling watched and have also received some letters to stay away." She explains, hoping that the girl understood.Ava nodded when she saw the forlorn look on her mother's face. As they were walking, they saw a familiar figure pass by. It was none other than her beloved mother. "See my Mom. Why does she look like that?" She murdered aloud, calling Emma's attention to that direction."Oh, is that your mother? Why don't we say
Leonard stood before the jury, they were about to judge him and ask why he was fighting. The other man had been asked but he said that it wasn't intentional and also that he was just trying to make sure that everything was going all well and good. One of the men stared at Leonard who didn't look remorseful. " May we know what exactly led to the fight?" He rephrased the question.Leonard looked up at them. After making sure that they tore his back and almost made him lose his shit in front of everyone, they were still acting like they cared to know.His eyes darted toward his in-law who was supposed to help him out, also watching and sipping from his cup. "I was provoked, I shouldn't have retaliated but I did and I have been punished for it." He stated in a final tone making everyone know that he wasn't in the mood for unnecessary conversations."I don't know what to say seeing that you have always not been concerned with us and suddenly you decide not to allow us to rest in the priso
