"Have you been able to reach her?" Levi asked as his eyes stayed glued to the screen. "Not yet sir." Steven replied. He had been trying to get in contact with Brittany for a while now and for some reasons, he couldn't. The last thing she did was send him a message that she would call him back as soon as she could but she never did and the day was almost coming to an end. Levi needed her honest opinion on something and she wasn't around to give it. That only made him unstable. He was not the kind of guy that loved being stuck in one place for a long time. He needed to move over to the next week step and to effectively do that, he would need to have her opinion as soon as possible. "What exactly could be the problem? Why is she not picking up?' "Umm, maybe it's because she may not have my number and she is too busy to pick up calls from strange numbers." Steven suggested. "Okay if that is the case, then use my phone and try to reach her. I need this information as soon as possible.
"Levi what the hell is going on?" Jake said as he ran up to meet him. "Why are you busy screaming Brittany's name all over the place? Did something happen to her?" He asked curious to know what was going on. But Levi was more focused on making the calls and getting through to the actual person he needed to talk to. First he called her mother. If she wasn't at school and she wasn't with him as well, then she had to be with her mother. "Hello ma, good evening." Levi greeted her calmly. "Yes, Levi how can I be of help to you?" She replied. He ignored the sneer in her voice. After all, the were more important things to worry about at the moment. "I do hope you are okay ma. I just wanted to know if Brittany was in anyway with you." "Why would she be with me? Especially after you took her away from me?" She said and Levi could hear her voice breaking. "Sorry ma. But I don't understand what you are talking about." "I am talking about the fact that you have totally turned my daughter a
"what happened?" Jake asked "Well she hung up on me. I really can't believe that woman would hang up on me like that." "Okay, this has gone on for too long. I say we call Mark, Sasha and everyone else to start looking for her. Knowing the kind of person her father is, trust me she is not in good hands if she is actually with that man." "I know she isn't. I think you are right. Let me quickly call our guards. They need to start looking for her." Levi wasted no time in dailing Sasha. The woman was crazy but she considered her as her sister and she would not allow anything to happen to her. Taking advantage of that, Levi knew fully well that the was no way she was going to allow any harm to come to her. "Levi, it's almost night time. You better have a good reason for calling me." Somehow, Levi also got the idea that Sasha may not fully like him and why she didn't still remained a mystery to him. After all, he wanted the same safety of her like he did. "Okay, you really don't have t
"Brittany!" Levi called out surprised to see her there. "Hey babe," she answered with a smile on her face but something about her appearance seemed very off to him. Her eyes had a dullness around him that he could not comprehend. "Is everything okay? Where have you been? I have been calling you but you didn't pick up!" "Oh dear," she said and passed by him to enter the house. "I am so sorry but I misplaced my phone and I just had to go to the station to try and find it because you know I have a lot of important documents in there." She explained without blinking. "You had to go to the police station? Why couldn't you just come to my office? I would have made the commissioner to find it faster and you wouldn't have to have put yourself through all the stress." Levi added. "Well it just feels like of late, you have been helping me out a lot and I just had to do this one on my own." "Okay, so what did th police say?' "Oh they said that they will be able to find the person that too
Brittany stood up with shaking legs and walked slowly towards the door. She knew who was behind it. Levi's perfume has always been different and it was one of the things that drew her attention the first time. As she took slow steps towards him, she realized that her eyes were a bit watery. "I'm coming," she said as she began cleaning her eyes, hoping that when he comes in, he will not notice the fact that she wanted to break down and cry. Once she was sure that she was okay, she wiped the tears off her eyes and opened the door. Levi stood outside, leaning on the wall and he stared at her. She did look off but he still couldn't pin his hands on anything but if the was one thing he knew very well, it was that she was lying to him. And he was going to find out why. "Is everything okay? Why are you just standing there and staring down at me like that?" Brittany asked, trying to avoid his gaze. He could see that she tried to hide it but she had always been terrible at hiding her pain.
Brittany stood still, she could not answer the question she was asked. She couldn't even wrap her head around how he got to figure out. Did he have a spy on her watching her every move? She gasped, if that was the case then he definitely knew that she was kidnapped and held at gun point before she decided to sell him out. But why as he was saying anything about that. Maybe because he wanted her to say it herself. He had already confronted her about the first one, the next best thing would be to actually get her to understand that she should tell him everything by himself before he started yelling again."How did you know about that? Are you watching my every moves with spies?" She asked angrily and waited patiently for what his answer would be. "Do not try to turn this around on me okay. Look, I need simple answers to the question I am asking you right now.'"No, I need questions to what I am asking you. Levi do you actually have people spying on me? Has it gotten to this stage that
Brittany sat still. She knew Levi was a good man but she also knew that her father was one of the worst people out ther and she would not allow that man to take possession of what she worked hard for. He gave up the position of her father when he walked away. She would do everything in her power to ensure that he never got back together with her mom. Since it was money he wanted, she would willing give it to him and allow him to leave her and her family alone. "You don't know what you are saying, Levi. Look, my father is the worst person I have ever met and I am telling you the truth right now. Tha man will not just allow this to go. If I want him gone, I need to personally use my hands and drive him away. And you know what that means. That means I need to get rid of him before he turns my mom totally against me which is something he is just dying to do." "Really and how do you plan on doing that?" Levi asked. His gut kept telling him that the was an information she was keeping to h
Brittany stood up slowly from the bed. She had imagined that if Levi woke up, he would start asking a lot of questions that she did not have answers to. Actually, they would be questions that she had answers to but will be unable to answer them because she did not really have the strength to explain herself. As she snuck out of bed, she did not realize that Levi had woken up and heard her every movement. Slowly, she moved out of the room and into the balcony with the intention of answering the call that was blowing up her phone. "What is it?" She asked harshly and through a whisper. "Look, I don't know but I have told you to not disturb me when I am with him. Are you trying to get us caught or something? Please, stop calling my line. If you continue doing this, I will block you and switch off this device. Have a lovely night." She said rudely and ended the call. Levi walked back to the bed before she could come back into the room. He had never seen her so distressed in his life be
"So are you ready for it?" Gilead said as he approached Levi. "Yes uncle. I believe I am." "You must know how proud I am of you. You do know that right?" "Yes I do." Levi did not care of he was just father or his uncle. Since he came back into his life he has always treated him like his own son. He cared for him, gave him a bodyguard when people threatened his life. He did everything for him and never wanted to stop. He was more than happy that the man was just in his life and he did not care if he lied about being his uncle. "We should start going if we don't want to be late.""Yes. You are absolutely correct." Levi said. "Thank you for everything you have done for me, thank you." He said and walked away, heading straight to Brittany's room. "Did you ask him?" She asked when he got there but Levi could not answer. He was too mesmerized by the beauty standing in front of him. Everyday he saw new beautiful features in her and always asked himself how he ever got so lucky. "You lo
"Do you think that will work?" Levi asked. "It has to work because if that bastard does anything to my mother, I promise you it will be the last thing because I will use my own hands to kill him." "Okay, you just need to calm down now. I'm sure he will be able to..." Levi did not finish his statement when Brittany got another call. "Who is that?" Levi asked. "I don't know. Let me answer?" She said and picked the call. "Hello," Davina's voice was heard from the other side. "Davina." "I'm glad you already know who I am. Meaning that I don't need to do any sort of introduction, right?"."I'm guessing Henry gave you my number, isn't that right?" "Now now miss, it's not good to address your own father by his first name. That is disrespectful." "When that same father kidnaps my mother and wants to use her for randsom, I will do whatever the hell I want to." "Oh that is hardly kidnapping. What we are about to do will benefit you as well, you know." "How will lying to Levi to steal
"What? Today?" She asked. "Why?" "Well the company is having a party today and my uncle wants to use that opportunity and transfer the company and everything it holds to me. So you see, if we don't do this before that time, unfortunately, we may not be able to get what we want from this plan." "Wow, babe that's wonderful news. Congratulations!" Brittany said and ran to hug him. "Thank you but you did hear the other things I said right. We need to get this correct if not, it will not be funny." "Yes I hear you. I understand everything that you are saying. But I still think the time is too short. Don't you think she will notice and if she does and eventually finds out what we are trying to do, you know that every plan we have will be ruined like that. I honestly don't think we should do this." "We have no other option. It's either we do this now or we forget about it totally. Look, babe I believe in you. I know you can convince her. You just need to try and give it your all." "I h
Levi got home late because they had to stop by and get dinner. By the time he arrived, his uncle was already fast asleep. The young man walked into his home and slept peacefully with his woman till the next morning. As the sun rose, so did Levi but when he turned, he realized that Brittany was no where to be found. He turned around on his bed and saw a note beside him."Hi, baby. If you wake up before I am done, just know that I am in the kitchen cooking." He smiled when he finished reading the message and he proceeded to move to his kitchen. He was not able to make it because his uncle was waiting for him in the palour.."Is everything alright uncle?" He asked from the way the man stared at him. "You walked out on me yesterday. And you are yet to apologize." "I am so sorry sir. It's just that Brittany was in danger and I had to go save her." "I know. Jake told me everything. Listen to me. It does not matter how upset you are. You should never hold a woman the way you did yesterd
"What?!" Officer Joseph shouted. "Sir you can't fire me." He said"But I just did. Young man, you made an illegal arrest and you did not even go there with your partner because you know that he would have called you out on your bullshit. No, you decided to go with a rookie who would not agrue with anything you did. Not only did you not just defame the law, you made a fool of it and I will not tolerate any sort of nonsense in my force." "But sir. I was just...""If you say you were doing your job one more time, I promise you I will have you locked up." "Sir, if I may," Levi said as he pulled himself upward from his chair. "What could that be sir?" "Sir, I would love it if officer Joseph here could tell us exactly what it is that he did to ensure that he had strong evidence to back up his claims." "What?" Officer Joseph said in shock. "Well, you keep saying that you were only doing your job so now I want to know, what exactly did you use as evidence to arrest my woman with? Becau
"Okay, I don't really care about all these nonsense. I just want Brittany to be released. Can you guys please just do that before you think of what to do to this riff raff?" Levi said angrily. "Oh certainly sir." Jayden said but before he could move, he stopped when his name was called. "Officer Jayden, the commissioner is around and he is requesting to see you." "Okay, thank you." "Oh I see that the commissioner is around. Release Brittany and we will all go see him together." Levi said. "The commissioner?" Officer Joseph said, shaking. He was slowly realizing what he had gotten himself into. "Yes, the commissioner. Oh are you shaking right now. Please don't shake. After all, I can't do anything to hurt you neither can I even fire you. So don't worry, you are definitely in safe hands." Levi said mockingly and walked away to meet Brittany as she walked out of the cell that Jayden was opening. Jayden opened the cell immediately and Brittany ran out. She hugged him tightly, scare
Levi got to the station before the commissioner did and immediately he got there he walked hastily into the station. He did not say a word to anyone because he knew the station well enough. It was the same place Davina had stayed when he got her arrested.The man walked straight, ignoring all calls from other police men till he was eventually stopped by one. "Sir, you can't go back there. That is where we keep the criminal," the young man said while holding him. "Sir, first of all, you will need to tell me who you want to see and then I will be the one to either allow you to meet this person or not." Levi stood without talking, waiting for him to be done with whatever he was saying. "So sir, what I am saying is that you will have to come with me and give me information as to why you are here," the man explained again, thinking that Levi did not understand him the first time. "Oh don't worry Dave, I know exactly who he is here to see," beside him, Levi heard the voice that he was
"Levi Strauss!" The voice of his uncle brought him back to reality as he looked and saw that the man was boiling with anger. "Uncle," he said. "Have you gone out of your mind?" The man screamed. "When did you start holidng women by their necks and trying to kill them?" He said angrily. Levi looked at him. He did not know if Davina was lying when she said that he was his father. And he did not care to know..all he knew was that he was angry, boiling with anger and having him around was not going to solve his problem or make Brittany to be released from jail. Angrily he left the scene and ran upstairs. "Levi! Come back here!" He ordered but the young man was far gone. His uncle stood there in shock. He did not understand what was happening but he knew that he had never seen Levi is a disrespectful child and for him to walk out on him when he was talking was something he never thought the man would do. "What the hell has gotten into that boy? Is it me that he just ran away from?" H
"Please take her away!" The leader said. "Take your hands off her I say!" Levi said angrily and almost bounced on the man. The cocking of a gun by the leader brought him to an halt. He turned around to see the man holding a gun in her hand. "Step away from my partner or I promise you that I will shoot." "You actually have the audacity to point a gun at me?" Levi asked, his eyes turning red. "Levi!" Brittany shouted. "Levi, look at me!" She said, her hands behind her back, drawing Levi's attention to her. "Take care of my mom while I am gone and get me out of this as soon as you can." She said while being dragged out. "I won't let you spend up to an hour in there." He shouted as he watched her being lowered into the back of the police van and driven away. As the car zoomed off, Levi turned to Ivy. "You have the audacity to bring police officers into my home to arrest my woman." He said silently, taking slow steps towards her. "I had to do what I did for us!" Ivy said, not sca
