“F*ck!” Aidan cursed after terminating the call. His anger aroused after being informed about Kate leaving the office.Aidan couldn't just tell why Mr. Donald decided to go against his order. He wasn't like this before.Aidan began pacing up and down in the living room with his arms akimbo. He was lost about what he should be thinking about at the moment. Should he be worried about his sister or about Kate leaving the office? Which one?“This strongly suggests that Kate is up to something and I need to be fast to know her plans, or else, she will cause a lot of damage before I know it,” Aidan muttered and stiffened in one position.Sharon heard Aidan complaining while on the call with Mr. Donald. Nonetheless, she knew that something was wrong somewhere.She gazed at him with tear-filled eyes. “What's wrong, Aidan?” Sharon asked amidst shedding endless tears as she embraced Mrs. Frederick tight into her bosom.Aidan breathed out heavily and responded.“ I have a problem in my office.” h
Aidan picked up the call,“ Kate!” he furiously called out with annoyance.As soon as she noticed the angry tone from Aidan, Kate trembled even though she wasn't seeing him.“I-I'm sorry, sir. I was supposed to inform you before leaving the office, b-but you didn't pick up my call…” she pleaded as she stammered.“Ohh…” Aidan mouthed and slid one of his hands into his pocket.“ I have become a boy who you can easily play tricks on, right?”“I'm sorry sir, w-what do you mean?” she was lost. However, Mr. Donald had called to inform her that her boss had called and was angry because she left the office without his permission.However, Mr. Donald asked her to return to the office, but she said she couldn't because her mother's condition was critical and her younger brother wasn't available to stay with their mother in the hospital. Secondly, she couldn't allow the house girl, Mimi, to stay with Mrs. Emily because Kate didn't trust her to a degree to allow her to stay with her sick mom. “You
Felix swallowed hard as he gazed at Kate, who stood with a questionable expression. How is he going to explain this to Kate?He was perplexed as different thoughts ran through his mind.“ Come on, that's not a gun. Even if it is, then it's a toy gun.” Felix lied.“Are you kidding me? How can that be a toy g…” she abruptly stopped after a nurse stepped into the room.“Hey,” Felix quickly waved at the nurses nervously.“Good day, sir.” The doctor greeted him. “Good day, nurse. I'm here to look after my mom since my sister would be going back to the office,” he announced even when the nurse didn't inquire.“Okay, sir. You are welcome.” nurse Linda responded and added.“ Actually, I'm here to check on your mom.” “Ohh, that's great. You can go ahead and do the needful,” he said to her, and Nurse Linda nodded and walked past them.Felix scratched his scalp shamefully as he averted his gaze to the nurse and studied her body from head to toe.Immediately he remembered that his sister was still
Inspector Lincoln slammed the door and took off his hand from Kate and gestured toward Aidan who had stood up from his seat. “What is the person demanding?” Inspector Lincoln curiously asked.“The person said I should come over to Eko Hotel to receive a message from one of their members and I should be fast about that. Secondly, I shouldn't call the police on this.” Aidan explained to Inspector Lincoln.“You know what, I'm taking this lady to the station and I will organize my colleagues on how this movement would be.” Inspector Lincoln explained.“But they said I shouldn't involve the police." He reminded Inspector Lincoln.“I know. They are afraid to be caught, but I know how to go about it. Don't just bother yourself about it.” Inspector Lincoln assured him. “Alright, let's do this,” said Aidan, and Inspector Lincoln nodded.They left the office and took the elevator that took them to the down floor. None of the employees was aware of this.However, Aidan didn't hesitate to inform
“How am I supposed to know?” Nurse Linda responded with tear-filled eyes.“Aren't you meant to be in the hospital by now? Who is checking my mom's drip?” The police officers allowed them to exchange words without being distracted. Aidan, on the other hand, was smiling because the two ladies recognized themselves. This proves that they are working together. “Your mom is discharged and I have closed from work.” Nurse Linda explained to Kate.“Then how did you end up here? Because I'm lost.” “I was on my way home and I decided to enter the Eko Hotel to buy ice cream for myself and my younger siblings. While I was still waiting for the ice cream seller to respond to me, a man suddenly grabbed my hands. Immediately, the police came out from nowhere and handcuffed me without a reason.” Nurse Linda explained to Kate.Even at this, Inspector Lincoln didn't say a word as he kept staring at them and listening to their conversation.“I think they mistook you for another person,” Kate suggeste
“What should we do with these ladies?” Inspector Lincoln asked Aidan. It was clear enough that none of them had a hand in what was happening. So the best thing was to let them go.“Release them,” Aidan responded and turned around and faced Kate.“ I have my eyes on you, Kate.” he seriously said.“Like seriously?” Kate muttered and lowered her gaze to Aidan, but he ignored her.“Forgive me, Miss Linda for this. They used you as a scapegoat to escape. And for this reason, I will give you a small amount of money for delaying your time.” Aidan announced and nurse Linda was overwhelmed.Immediately she was uncuffed, she jumped and hugged Aidan and appreciated him. She couldn't hide her happiness. “Thank you, sir, this means a lot to me, considering the background I'm coming from,” she said amidst tears.Aidan smiled coldly and gently patted her back.“ You are welcome. Once more, I'm sorry for what happened earlier. We were played by the kidnappers and you became the victim of their plan.” h
On arriving home, Kate angrily threw her handbag on one of the couches in the parlor. The housemaid was in the kitchen. Immediately she had the sound, she stomped out of the kitchen to check who it was.“Welcome, madam,” Mimi fearfully bowed down and greeted Kate. Kate's angry face terrified her which made her scared.“Like seriously? Are you telling me that you are still cooking?” she inquired scornfully.“Hmm… No, madam. I can serve you right away if you wish.” Mimi responded with a low tone as she played with her fingers.“Please do that. I'm starving,” said Kate and gestured to the dining room. “Okay, madam. I will do just that.” Mimi responded and left for the kitchen.Kate pulled one of the dining chairs and fell with her bum on it. She rested her back on it and sighed in relief.She was so exhausted and hungry that she couldn't ask about her mom or her younger brother. Her intention at the moment was to feed herself.Mimi served Kate, and within minutes she began devouring the
At 9:40 PM Aidan could be seen standing in the mansion compound with his mom and Sharon.Sharon didn't go back home, rather, she stayed back to see the end of everything. She couldn't afford to go back and leave Aidan alone in this critical situation. It won't speak well of her.“Best of luck, my heartthrob,” said Sharon to Aidan as she buried her face in his broad chest.“Thank you, my love.” Aidan appreciated her with a whisper.After hugging her for a minute, he also embraced his mother who was shedding endless tears for her son who was going to face dangerous men just to save his sister.“Aidan, my dear son,” Mrs. Frederick called amidst tears.“ I pray for your safety. Be careful.” That was all she said and Aidan nodded.After hugging her, Aidan took one of his cars and zoomed out of the mansion without taking any of his bodyguards along.It was exactly 10:00 PM and Aidan was already standing before the magnificent Truezoom Hotel building as he waited to be told what to do next.Su
