Eleanor replied, "what do I do? What am I supposed to do. Is he going to die on me? I can't afford to lose him too Ryan, what can I do?""Calm down Eleanor, talk to me. What happened to him?""He received a message on his phone and fell into shock instantly.""What was in the message?" Ryan asks."Eleanor, what was the message?" Ryan asks again when he didn't get a response after almost a full minute.When Eleanor replied, her voice was low, barely above a whisper, "it's a video of how my parents died.""Where are you?""The house, I didn't know who to call or what to do. You can to my mind first."Ryan jumped up so fast the kitchen stool toppled over, "Listen to me and follow my instructions carefully.""Yes, sure, what should I do?"

*** *** "I'm going to do it." Alina said decisively, "It's either that or Ryan dies anyway." "I told you, I'll find a way around it!" Olivia murmured softly. "You can't, there's no way to around it. Today is the deadline anyway." "Why did you require my presence then? I left my grandfather unattended to run here for your supposed emergency." Eleanor asks Olivia, "She already made up her mind, and if I was in the same shoes as her with Asher, I'd just run away with him. I'm rich enough for that but I doubt she is. So this is way better, another option is talking about it with the CEO." She shrugs. Olivia groans into her palms in frustration, they were gathered in Alina's living room. Each of them were lost in their thoughts, Eleanor's phone pinged, breaking the thick silence in the room. Just as Eleanor picked up her phone to check the message, the entrance door opened forcefully, revealing Zara with disheveled hair, puffy and baggy eyes, in every bit of disarray. "I need help."
The Son-in-law they never wanted I could get justice
Beneath every tough surface is a wounded soul. I woke up to the sound of my alarm ringing. I snoozed it and sat up on my bed fully awake, not that I slept deeply before. Who would by the way?? I sighed and stood up, heading to the bathroom. Today is my last day here, the contract I signed would be annulled and I don't have where after today, not even enough to stay on my own. My parents died eight years ago and I was abducted and abused by my parents' killer for five years till luck shone on me one night and I escaped. I began working as a maid so I can fend for myself and save up for college to achieve my dreams and bring her parents death to justice. I wore my uniform and went to the next compound where my boss lives. I opened the gate and took a look around, scrutinizing the environs. " Hurry she is around" my colleagues hurried about, performing their duties and keeping a safe distance from me. They're all scared of me especially after I taught one of

~ Donald ~ I fixed bacon and eggs for breakfast to eat. I opened the door to leave for work only to find a young petite lady. Her long chestnut hair packed in a ponytail, she has green eyes and round face. I noticed how she looked at me with calculating eyes, giving me a quick once-over before meeting my gaze. When I saw she was through studying me, I asked the question that was at the tip of my tongue since I saw her. "Yes? Who are you?" I curled up my lips. "Your new maid" she said nonchalantly. Huh?? New maid?? I can't remember asking for one. I narrowed my eyes at her. "My name is Courtney and I was employed by your mother to be your maid" she introduced further, smiling. I stiffened when she mentioned my mother, I should have known she wouldn't listen to me "Get out" I said coolly. She raised an eyebrow and looked at me squarely in the eyes "Make me." WTH!!!!!!! She isn't even scared of me, doesn't she know w

~ Donald ~ "What the actual fvck!" I swore under my breath in anger. "Didn't you say you're a maid?" I glared at the back of her head. I'm sure if looks could kill, she would be ten feets below the ground. "Doesn't mean I shouldn't relax a bit besides we both own the house. The only difference is you're the one paying the bills while I do the cleaning" she replied still without looking at me. "I'm your boss here so you should listen to me" I yelled "now clear the table" "Sorry boss, you gave the wrong order. Now why don't you take off your shoes, head to your room, remove your clothes and have a cold shower" she finally turned to me and gave me a glance before turning back to the TV. "Very good Counterknee" I replied "I want you out of my house this minute. Who do you think you are?" "It's actually Courtney" she corrected "and your maid" "Get out!" "Are you sure you want that? If I step a foot out of this house, I'm telling your mother how you cl

~ Donald ~ Now I'm convinced that girl was sent by my mother, she isn't a maid as she claims to me. Flynn went home late last night so he wouldn't get scolded by his wife. My phone rang, I looked at the caller's ID and hit ignore. Seconds later, a message came in. " I love you too baby, you have no idea what your words mean to me. You should have told me instead of Courtney. love mum " I hit the reply button furiously " Okay ma'am, I don't know what you must have heard from your Ally. Just know it's quite the opposite. I don't love you and never will. It would be better if you tell her to leave my fvcking house " I replied and dressed up for the day's work in anger. My stomach rumbled in anger as I remembered last night. I had wanted to serve myself food when CounterKnee came over and said the food is solely for guests and since I'm not one, I have no right to eat it. I had no choice than to leave quietly in order not to cause a scene. I wore my socks and sh

~ Flynn ~ "Did I tell you Eva?" I asked my wife as we sat across each other eating "Tell me what?" She replied with a mouthful. " Donald has a maid" I grinned "Tell me another joke" she said in a flippant manner. "Have I ever lied to you Eva?" I put a hand over my chest. "Yes" "When?" "Today, when I called at lunch, you told me you were eating the food I prepared for you but you were eating anothe instead" Ohgawd....why did you give me a witch as wife?? "How...di....did y-you know?" I stuttered "Call it a woman's sixth sense, especially a wife's" "Well believe me now, Donald has a maid and it was her food I was eating when you called" I felt pleased with myself to be the first telling her. "Can we visit this weekend?" Her eyes lit up. "Don't tell me you want to matchmake them." "No, I'm going to warn her to stay away from Donald so he doesn't hurt her and do exactly as he says. I hope she lives through till I get there" "

~ Donald ~ I grumbled as made my way to my car. Personal and official phone. Hmph. I parked in the reserved place meant for me and entered the building. It's funny how I achieved things quickly after my ex left. "My office" I said to Flynn who was chatting away with the receptionist. The smile on his froze and he trailed slowly behind me. I opened my office and dropped the lunch bag on my table and loosened my tie a little. "Didn't I ask you not to eat the food yesterday?" I glowered at him. "I-I thought you wouldn't eat it and I don't want the food to waste" he looked at anywhere but me. I slumped down on my chair, swiveling it around as I pondered on if I should give in to her demands or not. Well I don't have a choice, do I? "I need phone" I said to Flynn "Don't you have one?" "Well did I say it's for me?" "You have a girlfriend?" His face brightened. "No, it's for CounterKnee" "Ohhh..." He looked at me, waiting for me to explain

**** "I don't understand you" I continued when we entered the car "if I'm to be treated like a queen, why are you driving when we have an entire entourage behind us?" I asked "Because I'm treating you like a queen, durh" "I'll think of you as my driver then" I smiled satisfactorily. "I have a very juicy news" he licked his lips. "I can see it's really juicy for you to lick your lips, did you taste the juice?" He glared at me and concentrated on driving. Knowing him, I knew he would continue talking. "My three year old girl is dying to see you. She even decorated her bedroom and expects you to share the room with her" he said admiringly. "I knew she would always be smart, smarter than her father who paid an entire entourage to accompany us home" "It's was her idea, so that means I'm smarter" he bit his cheeks to surpress himself from laughing. "Wow that's so smart of her, she deserves a medal." I replied wiping the smile off his face. "Hmph.." he

Five years later, Courtney I stood at the arrival terminal in the airport, looking for my ride home. I had travelled to Europe for college with the help of Div and Donald and graduated with an upper class in law. I specifically chose to major in law so I can lend my voice to those that are voiceless. I saw a flag raised up with the name CounterKnee. I shook my head and walked to the person who was busy chatting away on his phone with a big smile on his face. I smacked him on the arm "Didn't I tell you not to call me CounterKnee?" I playfully glared at him. "What do you expect me to do when I miss you so much?" He grinned at me "Should I blush now or what?" "None, a hug will do" I hugged him tight "it's been five years" "I know right, it feels like yesterday and it also feels like ages ago" We disengaged from the hug and he collected my luggages from me, leading me to sleek car and I noticed an entourage. "Please don't tell me you hired

Donald "I knew something was up with that Uncle of yours. I never liked him." Mum said after I narrated everything to her. "I still can't believe he tried to kill me and Courtney." "I haven't told your father about it. You mentioned Div just now?" "Yeah, he's the one that helped" "That's new, the Div I heard about is cruel and he's a Drug Lord." Mum explained. "A drug Lord? Courtney got herself involved with a drug Lord? Is that why the police man saluted to him" "Maybe..... I'll head over to the police station. They should wrap up the case, we aren't making any charges. He's dead, we don't need to mention his case in court." I shrugged and eyed mother who was staring at me with mischief. I went over and hugged her tightly. "About Courtney" mum started. "Don't even go there mum..... don't" I disengaged from the hug and flashed her a grin then went to the kitchen where I met Flynn and Eva cooking. It was a sight to behold. "We're sorry,

"What contract you signed with mother ends today, I'll give you the money" My heart plummeted down, I wanted the money for college so I can't rent an apartment till I apply. "I want to work for my money" I argued "No, you've worked enough. I'm going to sponsor you to college and you can always consider this place as home" I wanted to raise my head and look at him. He pressed my head back against his chest "No don't look at me" "Thank you" I said with so much sincerity. "You deserve it CounterKnee" " Sorry to break you guys up, but what the heck happened?" Another voice said "Mum" Donald cried out, not masking the surprise in his voice. His mum?!

*** He stared at me as if he couldn't believe what he was wearing and pulled me into a hug. I let myself be hugged and relax in his embrace. It's finally over, we conquered our nightmares. "Know the first thought that crossed my mind when I saw you?" He asked, his chin resting on my head. I shook my head negatively against his chest. "Who's this fierce beautiful petite lady with wild chestnut hair who isn't afraid of my cold aura and broke through, now I have a warm heart willing to love." "What do you think when you see now, after you know, everything?" I asked "Wow, my bossy maid is one hell of a strong woman, beautiful and fierce at the same time, selfless too. She's one of the people I hold dear to my heart now." I blushed, surprised someone still thinks of me as beautiful. "What contract you signed with mother ends today, I'll give you the money"

ourtney ️ I watched helplessly as the policemen took Div away. "I'll be okay and probably be back in the night" he said as they took him away but that didn't alleviate my worry. Killing Simon was self defense, the police should know that. Seeing I wasn't convinced "what about bringing your flowers this night?" I smiled and nodded in agreement. After he left with the police, an ambulance came to carry Simon's corpses and I was asked to vacate the room without cleaning as they need evidence. I packed my belongings and moved them to Donald's room. I sat on his bed, reminiscing. Simon is really dead, my nightmare is gone. It still felt surreal. Donald entered and sat quietly beside me. "I'm so sorry Nora, I'm sorry I didn't believe you" he pleaded. I looked at him and placed my hands on his, "If I were you, I wouldn't have believed a stranger over my blood too so I'm not angry."

Shocks
Donald I entered the room and stood in shock as I watched Uncle fall slowly to the ground with a strange man holding a gun. I glanced at Nora, she was holding a gun too. Where did she get the gun? "Who the fuck are you?" I wanted to ask but the words died down in my mouth when I saw her run to the strange man. For a moment, my heart surged with gratitude towards the strange man. He save Nora. I didn't mind that Uncle is dead, after all he had been planning to kill me too. "Who are you?" I wanted to ask again but the police men interrupted this time. They looked at the gun in the strange man's hand and Simon's corpse. "You are under arrest sire" The police man saluted before talking which only made me more curious. Who exactly is this man standing here??

*** After I killed him, she ran over and hugged me, surprising me completely. My sister was the only person that could hug me, here, another person is taking her place. I hugged her back not caring about the person behind me who should be the owner of the house. Hugging another person after a long while felt good and refreshing so I held on to her, not worried about the blood seeping into my clothes. "B-bo-boss" Jeff stammered. "Just kneel and raise your hands up till I come back and clean the mess here" "W-where are you going?" "Police station." Just as I said it, a batch of policemen entered fully armed and took in the state of the room including the kneeling Jeff.

Do or die
DIV While I asked Jeff to stay guard of the house, I also stationed two more people. When I got report that Simon was heading to her room and destroying things in his bedroom, I knew he was going to do something other than having sex with her this night. So I got into my car and drove as fast as I could. I told her I won't let his blood stain her hands and I'm a man of my words. I'm not going to let her go to jail because of him. I couldn't protect my sister then and she's going to be angry if I don't help Nora. I entered in time to see him choking her and her pulling the gun I gave her out. I stood, watching the entire exchange, waiting for the right time to make a move. When he pointed the gun at her, I pulled my gun out and was about shooting. Then she threw the lamp at his hand, aiming perfectly. She picked the gun quickly and made to aim. I took action then and killed him. From my research, the Simon of a man has about twenty more people in ca
