Davide was speechless, he didn't know how to react to what Zeta said neither could he even think.of what to say. The look in her eyes was intense and caught him by surprise.Zeta kept eye contact with him for a while, it was like she hated looking anywhere else that wasn't him and suddenly Davide found himself on a spot.He cleared his throat and broke the staring contest he had going on with Zeta."Thank you for being worried, Zeta. It was stupid of me to make a joke out of it".Zeta cleared her throat too and moved a few steps away from him. Seconds ago she couldn't look anywhere else except his eyes but now, she was busy looking everywhere else except at him."It's okay," she said. "I was pretty intense". Davide smiled at her but she couldn't see, her eyes were darting across the room searching for what wasnt searching for her."I'm gonna go check on the nurse, she should be here already". Zeta walked out of the room, she didn't spare a glance at him, but instead just dashed out o
Few minutes later, Davide decided that it was time that he went back home. He had had enough of hospitals and he also didn't want to be constantly reminded that there may be people who were set on killing him.Though some people might find it thrilling, but he did not. Davide didn't like to be on the headlines of news, he didn't like the thrill of running for his life. Having been targeted just that evening was enough thrill to last Davide a lifetime. He had been shot at, what other thrill could he want for himself.And with the assassination attempt, he was forced to remember his parents. He had not even given it much thought before, it never really bothered him that he was an orphan but now everything seemed to remind him that his parents were dead and not just that, they had been murdered.It could mean that, if their life hadn't been targeted, Davide could've grown up with them. Davide could've remembered his mother for her warmth and his father for his support, he might've even h
Davide watches how Cassie's countenance changed, she didn't look like she was interested in having that conversation with Davide.But the look in Davide's eye was too great, she couldn't hold herself back.Davide saw how reluctant she was about answering the question. He thought that probably there was a huge reason, a very serious one that promoted her to hate Zeta the way she did. However, Davide couldn't think of any at the moment, minutes ago he had introduced the two women to each other and from the way they acted, it was like they had known of each other before. Though cassie had said she usually see Zeta around but it felt as if it ran deeper than that. That somehow, the woman had had a sort of confrontation in the past that resulted in this animosity they felt.Davide was starting to feel very weird, if in fact they had a kind of issue that has influenced the way they acted around each other, Davide was sure that they would tell him to choose.He knew they weren't stupid enou
Davide was so shocked he couldn't move from the spot he had found himself, he was wondering how come that Avery found out his house.He panicked, he had no idea what to do or how to react to everything that was happening at the moment, he couldn't process it.He turned to Cassie who was looking at him weirdly, she must've thought that it was weird that there was a woman who was calling him, yelling his name kike he owed her a debt or something.Davide himself started to wonder if he had actually stolen Avery's money or some property she owned."What's going on?" Cassie asked him.Davide looked through the door then looked at Cassie, he had no idea what he should say to her and was just watching her dumbfoundedly."Davide! Davide!" The screams got louder and angrier and Davide was about to lose it, he didn't know how Avery found the house or what she wanted from him. He was utterly confused about what to do.The screams did not stop and actually got quite annoying. Avery was a very st
Avery stood with her hands in her waist, her eyes fixed on Cassie as they were both walking towards her. Avery was obviously angry at seeing Cassie and the questions bubbling in her heart before were now intensified.She began to wonder what sort of relationship Davide had with Cassie that prompted them to spend so long hours together. Avery had seen them at the hospital and now they were together in this mansion.She was wondering if there was something that was going on between them, that maybe they had been doing some unholy things in the house before that was why the guards had refused her from going inside.With this suspicion in her heart, Avery scrutinized Davide's appearance as he was walking towards her. His clothes didn't look like they had been hurriedly worn but there was a noticeable tear on one of the sleeves and from there she could see the outlines of a bandage wrapped around his hand.Avery was shocked as she stared at him, worry surged in her heart but she would rath
Cassie evidently did not appreciate how the whole situation had gone. She had been angry even before they worked out and now she was standing before Derek whtonhad called her a Nanny.Seeing Avery standing there with the people she was familiar with, Cassie was not pleased, her anger was surging within and she looked like any moment she was going to erupt like a volcano. She had so much on her mind and these people were not allowing her to have a few moments to herself.She had rushed to the house after hearing about what happened with Davide and left all that she was doing just to arrive here and be insulted by not just Avery but Derek also.She understood that the reason why Derek had called her a nanny was because they really wanted to keep Davide's secret from the public but Derek could've at the very least decided not to give Avery any reply because he didn't owe her one.Cassie felt very bad.And it was not helping that Avery kept laughing like she was high on serotonin. She lik
Davide couldn't believe what Cassie was saying. He could process her words. Davide could admit that regarding his parents death, he was a bit sensitive. He knew nothing about his parents, all the memories he had of them had been completely wiped away and now he just sees their pictures and they feel kike complete strangers not the people that birthed him.He had always thought that even though the police didn't catch the person who killed his parents, that person would be millions of miles away.However, suddenly Cassie was talking about them and not just that, she was insinuating that the person was close by and not just that, the person worked in the company.Davide couldn't even fathom the person's motive for killing his parents, the more he thought about it, nothing made sense to him. The person was obviously not close to him but if Cassie's words were true, then that person was calculative.It could be that it was the same person that had tried to kill him. Davide had hated assum
Davide left Zeta alone, he didn't understand why she had been behaving like that, why it seemed like Cassie was such a bother to her.Davide could not allow himself indulge in the mystery of Zeta's issues, he had other things to keep himself busy with, he was late to work and he knew when he got there he would be forced to stand outside for maybe an hour or two and it might be that today he wouldn't be as lucky as the other day when Miss Donalds came in and saw favor in him.Now, Davide had to live through the excruciating experience of standing outside for hours.He hadn't slept well the night before because he had been worried about Cassie and was thinking of a way to apologize to her and get her to forgive him and so he woke up late, he had decided at first that he would just call in sick but that would mean putting up with Zeta all day and he wasn't really cut out for jt so he had no other choice but to go to work where he would be far from Zeta.However, at work he was equally fa
