Immediately after the meeting he had, Lucas showed him the comments on some posts about who people feel, would win. And then he was among the top three they expected to win. This cheered Adrian up a little more, as he felt if the judges and audience would be pleased with him, then there might actually be nothing which Josephine could do, against him.“Alright, we’re going to celebrate tonight. I’ll be inviting some other people as well, and our workers. Let’s celebrate in advance, as it is certain we would win.” Adrian said, and Lucas noted it.“Alright then. I’ll notify everyone quickly, so we can all get ready for the party tonight.” Lucas said, with a smile.Adrian went to his office, and began some paper works, but he closed earlier than usual, since he had a celebration, tonight. Meanwhile, Sophie had also sent another message, saying she wouldn’t be able to attend, and that when she is back, she would explain things to them.Although, he was a bit bothered, but he had to tell hi
Sophie on the other hand, had been in captive, but she wasn’t aware, due to the special technology that was being used, at the mansion they had taken her to. Right there, it seemed like time was passing by, slowly, but if they got out of the mansion, they would realize that days might have passed.Presently, Sophie still thought that she had some time before the contest registration would start or end, if she had to spend a longer time than she thought. Steve Wilson had not been able to see her, throughout those days, and that was the major reason he made them to take her to that particular mansion, of his.Sophie was alone, admiring the beautiful garden, and although, she felt weird about the fact that almost every single time, she felt hungry, and they always brought her food at intervals, without minding that she was probably acting like a glutton.Although, she preferred not to accept the food she was being given, but then, she knew how weak she felt, the first time she didn’t acc
It had been two days now since they found out that there was a high chance that Sophie was in Steve Wilson’s hands. It was in the morning, and Adrian was preparing to go to his office. Although, he and Lucas had sparked up an idea, regarding getting a proof that Sophie was right in there, but before they could make such device, a few days more might have to pass. Hopefully that Steve Wilson wouldn’t do anything to her before then.But also, in those few days, the system had a glitch, and had been giving him tasks which weren’t to his liking, or would he say it was unlikely of the system, giving him such tasks, which would make him seem nothing more than a villain. He also had questions on how the system got into his head, because as far as he could remember, he never had any surgery.Fortunately for him, there was someone who knew about the system in his head, and had reached out to him after he got an alert that the system was misbehaving, so Adrian was more than happy to meet with t
Adrian opened his eyes slowly, and met himself in his car, but he couldn’t move. His eyes were still all fuzzy and unclear, and it was an uncomfortable situation for him to be in.The style and method those men used against him was what was confusing him because he didn’t understand why a group of people would want him, but would leave him without abducting him or whatever.He was also wondering what he had been injected for. His eyes searched through his car to know if something had gone missing, but with what he could lay his eyes on, he didn’t find anything amiss.“Sh…shit.” He cursed under his breath, although, he found it hard to mutter out those words.What got him more frustrated was the fact that he had to meet with the tech expert, and now, he was way beyond late.To the tech expert, it would seem as if he wasn’t serious about it, or like he was being nonchalant. Not long after he thought about the tech expert, a text popped up on his phone.Thankfully, his phone wasn’t too f
When morning came, Adrian got excited, and the rays of his hope, shone brighter. At least, he felt that if he waited for a while, he would be able to set his eyes on the tech expert. He didn’t want to knock on his door as early as that, so he decided to just stay and watch.While watching, a call came in for him, from Lucas, and he answered the call.“Hey, man.” Lucas voiced out, over the phone.Adrian remembered the dream he had, last night, so hearing how hale and hearty Lucas sounded, made him sigh in relief.“Hey bro. What’s up?” Adrian asked, wondering why he had called him this early in the morning.“Do you want us to work a little on the gadget this morning before going to the office, or what do you think?” Lucas asked, and Adrian glanced at the tech expert’s home. Adrian couldn’t afford to lose his chance here, as he had come all the way here to get something tangible, done, and obviously, even if he were to leave this place, he couldn’t get back to his home early enough for
Steve Wilson on the other hand, had met with the hypnotist, and had also seen Sophie. He was quite pleased with the method the hypnotist used, because it was certain that the result was sure to last. “I’m not going to send her to Adrian, yet. I’ve got some use for her.” Steve Wilson said, with a smile on his face.Then he stepped out of the room which they had kept Sophie, in. He had a arranged a different room for her, and because of what had been done to her, she saw Steve Wilson as no one but her master who owned her, rightfully.As he stepped out of her room, he glanced at one of his guards. “Fetch me, Regina.” “Okay, boss.” The man left to call for Regina who was currently staying in one of the rooms here, because she was here for Sophie. Once Sophie was ready to be released, she would go back with her, and be the one in charge of monitoring her.Regina was chatting with her ex-lover before he put a call through to her as she seemed to be replying late, sometimes.“Well, you a
“Oh, no.” Sophie ran as fast as she could, with Claire, and they ran inside the main building and began to run up the stairs which seemed endless. She stopped, trying to catch her breath as she couldn’t take it any longer.“Wait. I can’t run anymore.” She managed to speak out as she gasped for breath.“They ran up these stairs!” Sophie heard one of them yell out, and her eyes widened in shock.Claire grabbed Sophie’s hand again, and they did their best to run as fast as they could until they ran into an empty class, and hid somewhere safe. They both laughed and chuckled, happy that they were away from those guys.“Who were they?” Sophie asked, out of curiosity.“Well, they are ‘Pride Boys’. But I call them Pee Ride.” Claire chuckled.“Whoa. But why did we have to run from them when all I did was a mistake.”“Well, the Pee Ride Boys do not take things lightly, especially that you scratched his face. I can’t imagine what he could have done to you.” Claire replied as she sat comfortabl
She didn’t understand what she saw, but then, her current situation overshadowed her thoughts. Sophie knew that the moment her nude photos would get out, that would be the day doom would befall her.Steve Wilson might take all her explanations as an excuse. The fact that there was a high chance of him punishing her, or even getting rid of her after the whole incident made her feel scared.“Hey! The coach is headed this way. You can continue with whatever you’re doing and get caught, or you leave!” She heard a familiar voice speak out.“You escaped this one. Don’t think you’ll be lucky enough to escape another.” The leader said, and then they all ran out of the basketball court.Sophie fell to the ground, traumatized by what had just happened. She was close to enslavement which could turn to public ridicule if she didn’t allow herself to be enslaved. Then she turned to the direction of the voice of the person who saved her, and coming towards her was Claire.“Hey, are you okay?” She as
