"Maxwell, how come you're picking up Amelia's phone. Did she fall into coma again?"Riya's questions came in a rush and Maxwell could only shush her to make her slow down."Calm down Riya, She's asleep"His deep voice muttered slowly.Riya was relieved to hear him say that and without further words, she announced that she would be coming over to spend the weekend with them at the hospital but Maxwell told her to come to the house instead as Amelia will be discharged on the same day.*Stucked behind the wardrobe, Karen didn't want to make any noise as she was not sure if the person after her was still out there. She scrolled through her contacts and picked out Kate's contact with which she sent an emergency message. All of a sudden, Kate called back but she refused to pick up the call. Her phone was on silent mode and she had turned off her location to avoid being tracked. She picked up and heard a voice from the living room scream "hello" which sounded at the same from the phone
"Harrison.. Are you okay?"Maxwell had waited for Harrison to park the car at the parking lot and allowed Amelia leave before asking the question.Harrison who was not in the mood to talk about his personal past life with his boss's son in law stared in silence and he wished deeply that Maxwell will not keep pressing the question."You know you can tell me anything"Maxwell assured him in a low voice as they stood behind the Gwagon which was sparking to the light of the sun."Let it go Maxwell. I do not want to talk about it"His voice was filled with pain and anguish and the only thing he wanted at the moment was a time alone with his thoughts.He could not keep the thought of Kate out his mind ever since he met her at the police station and it was affecting his behaviours towards everyone."Buzzz..."His phone buzzed and he checked to see the callers ID.It was Wilson. He seethe knowing that he should have called Wilson and tell him about the visit immediately he returned.He picked
Kate sat in the cell watching the other ladies dozz off in sleep.She had been finding it very difficult to sleep since she got into the cell but tonight seemed to be worse.She was obviously more worried than she used to be and Kelly who was watching her in silence noticed."You know thinking doesn't work here, right?"Kelly voice sounded more like a joke than an actual question startling Kate out of her thoughts."Bring your voice down, others are asleep you know"Kate didn't realize that Kelly was watching and her voice was usually very deep. "What's wrong, you look worried?" Kelly who was now very much fond of Kate Harry asked in a very concerned manner. She was not sure what the problem was with Kate but she realized that Kate was unusually outspoken during the day that day and was keeping up a cheerful attitude. However, she realized that it was all fake to cover up her sudden pain and worries. She had snuck up on her in the bathroom where Kate was wiping her face with a ti
Riya laughed at the tension on Maxwell's face. She knew he was scared and for some seconds she remained silent to allow the silence eat him up."Riya, are you serious?" He asked in a rather deep and concern tone."Hell yeah. Look I don't know what happened between you two but if my cousin is really in a relationship with someone else, that would not end well for you, you know that right?"Her words seemed to scare Maxwell more but he didn't let her see the nervousness on his face.He faked a smile and walked slowly away from Riya." I hope you are not planing on going to ask her, Max? " Riya asked as he walked away. " Why should I not ask her?" He asked in a low voice turning back to face Riya. "Please, don't. I do not want it to seem like I was talking to you about the things she said to me" She replied softly. Maxwell nodded his head in acceptance. Deep down he wanted to really understand what was going on but Riya obviously did not have the full information and only Amelia cou
Amelia peeped put of the window from her room when she heard a car drive into the mansion. Knowing that Harrison was in already she was curious about who it was. The car turned into the parking lot and in a matter of seconds, she saw her dad coming out of the drivers seat. She had never seen her dad behind the wheels before. He always had people especially Harrison to drive him, her and her mum since she was little. There seemed to be a problem. After not being able to speak to him for a while, she hurried down the stairs to welcome in him in a more daughterly way. "Dad.." She exclaimed as she walked down the staircase. "Honey. You're home now" He said with a broad smile on his face. They hugged each other tightly in a very pleasant way and the hug lasted for something like a minute before Wilson slowly pulled away. "I'm so glad you're awake" He said in a low voice stroking her hair softly. "I am too. Thank you for not giving up on me" She replied even though she knew that he
The ride was a long one as all he wanted was to get far away from his problems as much as he could but there was no way he could consider traveling out of town. That will only mean putting his job on the line.He had a whole day to himself to heal and restore his sanity at least to a reasonable stage without letting anything bother him and he has sworn to make the most of it.Immediately he spotted a bar where music was being played on a loud speaker, he asked the cab driver to stop and he highlighted after paying him.As he walked closer to the bar, it looked more crowded and the music started sounding even more louder. Somewhere cool to ease his mind huh.The bar was designed with different colours of bulb and lights shining and crossing its light at every corner of the room. There were different ladies dancing on the stage while some where striping around the corners, however, they were not his concern at the moment. His concern was setting himself free of his troubles while resto
"Harrison?"Kate was stunt to see him sitting on the visitors seat with a smile on his face and his legs crossed on each other."You do not look bad on the uniform?" He said in a rather mockery tone ashe stared intensely at Kate who was rather too shocked to see him again.She scoffed softly not wanting him to ripe off the last strand of pride she still had and said in a cold tone." Another message from Wilson to me?"Her deep yet weak voice sounding a little scared and Harrison noticed her fears as he kept staring at her in a very worrisome manner.He tilted his head and said in indifference,"I took the day off. I wanted to clear my head of the trauma that I was having since I saw you again the last time I visited with Wilson's message but it seems impossible so I thought of coming to you and clearing things out once and for all"Harrison masculine yet clear voice sounded rather determined and bold."I do not understand" Kate muttered slowly almost like a whisper."Oh dear, Ara. Do
The house was becoming uncomfortable for Maxwell as he kept tossing himself around on the bed unsure of what exactly to think.It was bad enough that Amelia was into someone else at the moment but what was worse for him was how to face Wilson knowing that his big deal was crashing.He sat up on the bed pondering on what to do when a slight knock came on the door. Knowing it was Riya who had that style of knocking he opened the door and let her in."Aren't you going to go say hi to your father in law?" She asked calmly and she sat in the bed."How exactly do I do that considering the situation at hand"He replied sounding rather nervous. His response stirred up Riyas concern as she sat still staring at him in surprise."What. What situation?" She asked in a concerned tone."Are you seriously asking me that, Riya" Maxwell asked staring at Riya in wonder."Frankly Max, I do not understand what you're talking about?" She said in a rather sincere tone."Same Amelia's relation problems, rem
