"Amelia was admitted to the hospital yesterday," a female voice responded.

Dub had not seen Amelia at work since morning, and he remembered that she didn't tell him that she wasn't going to be around.

"But she wasn't sick, so how come she's in the hospital?" Dub asked in surprise. "One of her neighbours said she fainted on her way out of her house, and so she was brought here," the female voice added.

"My goodness!" Dub exclaimed as he hung up on the phone. He wouldn't have known if he had not called Amelia's phone.

It was 3 pm and Amelia was not at work; that was why he decided to call her, but her phone was picked up by someone else. He was so engrossed with work; that he didn't have the time to call her before that time.

Immediately it was close of work, Dub couldn't wait any longer. "I have to go and see Amelia at the hospital," he told himself.

He picked up his phone from the table, and every other thing he wanted to take home, and walked out of his office. "What could have go

"Amelia, please can I see you briefly at my office?" Dub asked. "Well, I'm not sure. Work is over for today, and I have to be home right now," Amelia replied. "I know. But trust me, it's going to be brief," Dub tried to cajole her. "Alright, then," Amelia replied and walked over to Dub's office reluctantly. "Amelia, why have been cold towards me lately? You haven't been responding to my gestures, calls, or text messages. And anytime I come to visit you, you pretend not to be at home.

The company has applied for contracts with two different companies," the Secretary replied. "Okay, then. Please let me know those who would be representing the company for the contracts," Rodney said. "Alright, Sir. I'll find out and let you know," the Secretary replied as she left Rodney's presence.

He remembered an app which one of his friends told him about some time ago; his friend told him that he installed it on his phone to monitor his wife's movements, so he decided to try the app.Sandra was taking her bath one Sunday morning, so she left her phone in the drawer close to her bedside, so Donald took advantage of the opportunity and picked up her phone.Then he installed the app which was already on his phone to her phone; adjusted some settings; then dropped it quickly before Sandra stepped out of the bathroom. After a few minutes, Sandra stepped out of the bathroom, then she put on a simple dress and wore a pair of shoes to match. "Sandra, where are you up to?" Donald asked. It was a Sunday, and most of the time, the both of them stayed at home to rest on Sundays, so he was surprised when he saw Sandra dressed. "I'll like to visit a friend..."

    Amelia rushed out of Donald's house to meet her friend, but on getting home, she didn't see her friend, so she decided to check her phone. "Wasn't she the one who beeped my phone a few minutes ago?" Amelia asked herself as she opened her bag and brought out her phone. It was a text message. "Just a text message?" Amelia said to herself as she clicked on the message box to check the message. "Hey, you! I was able to get your number from one of your colleagues. I see that you are the one hanging around with my lover, Dub. I and Dub share a lot of things in common, and we've been in a relationship even before you relocated to Donlow city. Has he not told you that he already has a child with someone? It's so unfortunate that you seem to have eyes but cannot see. I'm sending this text so that you can stay away from my man. Stay away from my man if you don't want any trouble for yourself!" The text message read. On seeing this horrible text message, Amelia felt like passing out. "I ca

    "Hello, I've done all that you asked me to do. And I'm sure, she believes me this time," a female voice was heard over the phone. "Alright, good job. Owen will send you your balance today!" Linda replied as she hung up on the phone. "Let us see how she reacts to this, this time," she told herself. Within the last week, Amelia had received threatening messages, asking her to leave Dub so she made up her mind to quit her relationship with him. She stopped visiting Dub, picking up his calls, or responding to his text messages. Her meeting with him in the company was strictly formal, and not in any way informal. So Dub had begun to get worried about Amelia's attitude towards him of late. Amelia had just returned from work one Tuesday evening when she saw Owen standing by her doorstep with a bunch of flowers in one hand and a basket full of gifts in the other hand.

    Now that Rodney had been removed as the CEO of Ferex company, to him it was an automatic sack. He wished that Logan had spent a bit longer at the hospital so that he could perfect his plans about Ferex Company. However, he had some sense of satisfaction that his family had some other plans against the Jeff family; therefore, if destroying the company did not work out as he planned, the killing of Donald by Sandra would work out. He envied Donald and couldn't wait to hear that he was dead. His mother always told him and his sister that the Jeff family had so much opportunity to help them, but never did, despite the privileges they had above them; so this was just enough reason for him to hate Donald. Meanwhile, when Sandra returned home later that day when Donald was being admitted to the hospital, she was surprised not to meet him at home. So she asked one of the servants about his whereabouts, and he told her that he went to visit a friend and would soon be back. Mrs Jeff had w

    AMELIA'S IMPACT

    One evening, as Amelia and Suzy sat in the Williams living room, sipping tea, Suzy opened up about her doubts regarding Scott, her suitor."Amelia," she began hesitantly, "I'm just not sure about Scott. He's so different from the guys I usually date. He's quiet and reserved... I don't know if he's the right fit for me."Amelia listened carefully, her heart going out to her sister. She could see the uncertainty in Suzy's eyes, but she also saw the love that shone through when Suzy spoke about Scott."Suzy," Amelia said gently, "sometimes, we have to look beyond the surface to see the beauty within. Scott may be quiet, but that doesn't mean he doesn't care deeply for you. Within the little time I've seen him here, I've noticed the way he looks at you when he thinks no one's watching. It's a look of pure adoration."Suzy sighed, torn between her feelings for Scott and her uncertainty. "I guess I just need some reassurance. I want to be sure that he's as committed to this relationship as

"I was wondering if you and your baby would like to come over to our place today. Mom and I have something we'd like to talk to you about." Amelia, surprised by the invitation, agreed. She had hoped for reconciliation with her family and was eager to see if this was the beginning of a fresh start. "Sure, Suzy. We'd love to come over. What time should we be there?"

He started down the path toward his car, parked at the curb.The familiar routine of his daily commute was etched into his subconscious, and he moved with a sense of purpose. But as he reached the car door, a sudden, sharp voice cut through the calm morning air."Albert Dallas, freeze!
