Chapter 21- THE SAVING After Henry signed the document,Tony left the hospital without waiting for any chit chat,he had just entered his car when his phone rang in his hand, "Chief,What's it," Tony asked the police chief who had just called. "Mr.Tony,your late Uncle's wife had just escaped," The police chief said in frustration. "What? How did this happen?" Tony thundered with anger,he dived fully into his car and raced out from the hospital,moving towards the direction of the police. "Don't worry chief,I'm on my way to the police station," Tony added,his eyes focused on the road. As he drove with anger,he felt the peace he had felt for some days now came crashing before his eyes and harsh reality came rushing in. How the hell did Uncle Robert's wife escape was the question that raced through his mind,his head swirling with unpleasant thoughts. He couldn't believe what had just happened and how it would affect his lives and that of his loved ones. He thought Mrs.Josiah was gone
Chapter 22- THE UNEXPECTED "You don't have to bother Mr.Tony,my team and myself will make sure she's found. Innocent lives have been taken as a result of this,the policemen inclusive so we are fully involved in this case and we won't give up until the offenders are brought to book," The head of police uttered,his eyes curved in firmness and determination. The desperation within him was eating him up and he was furious with everything that had been going on. All his years as a police chief,it was actually the first time he was struggling because of a case."Thank you Chief,I need to go," Tony uttered and made to go,his face was clearly unpleasant.Immediately Tony got out from the police station,his phone rang again in his pocket. It was Collins calling."Hi man,what's going on?" Tony asked the moment he picked up the phone,his voice radiated his tiredness and weakness to the situation."Tony,bad news," Collins screamed out,his voice was shaking and he was so scared. Tony would sense
Chapter 123- THE DEMAND "Who's this?" Tony questioned with anger."You have something I want," The voice from the other end replied.Tony furrowed his brows in confusion as he tried to make sense of what was going on and who the caller was. He could sense the voice of a woman and knew it was a woman who was speaking to him."And you are?" Tony asked with irritation clear in his tone. He was currently fed off from the anonymous calls he was getting and needed a way around it."Don't tell me you don't recognize my voice Tony? I haven't changed or have I?" The woman uttered with satisfaction. Laughing loudly at Tony's irritation and contempt to her."Mrs.Josiah?" Tony uttered with vexation laced to his words. He knew instantly it was her on the other end and was enraged to say the least."That's my boy,thought you would recognise me immediately," Mrs.Josiah said with a smirk plastered on her lips. She knew she was getting on Tony's nerves but she was actually enjoying herself and how di
Chapter 124- THE RESCUE "Keeping true to my promise. I told you if you don't abide by my request that you should be ready to collect his dead body. I wasn't joking Tony,I hate Samuel to the core," Mrs.Josiah lashed out in certainty and confidence.I was shocked to say the least,Mrs.Josiah comment about her son wasn't what I was expecting and I was instantly dumbfounded."You better don't touch him Josiah or else you will regret it,I promise you that," Tony lashed out in anger,his tone was daring as he thought about his next course of action immediately."There's no need to banter words Tony, just give me what I asked for,then we are good?" Mrs.Josiah answered back with a smile laced to her lips. She technically doesn't understand why Tony was proving stubborn to her request. She knew he thought she was joking but she was practically ready to prove him wrong. Her ambition was far greater than anything altogether."I can't believe the nonsense you're saying Josiah. I don't owe you anyt
Chapter 125- THE DISCUSSION After days of recovering at home,Henry was strong and able to carry on his personal dealings.Tony had been true to his words and he wasn't arrested which was something he was happy about. Due to the fear that was laced to William's Storm heart,he had requested Henry not to leave the house but to fully commence rest. But Henry on the other hand was tired of staying indoors and decided to leave the house.He drove for several hours without a destination in mind. He wanted some air and after getting enough of it,Henry decided to visit his father in his office.When Henry got to his father's office,he was led in by his father's secretary and personal assistant."Mr.Henry,Your father is in a meeting and would join you shortly," The secretary replied,taking Henry to his father's desk and leaving shortly after,her eyes laced with a smile."Thank you," Henry muttered and took his seat shortly after the secretary left.He inhaled deeply and rested his head,while t
Chapter 126- WILLIAMS STORM REFUSAL"Why shouldn't Tony be trusted?" Henry immediately asked in anger,his eyes showcasing the fury he was feeling. He totally doesn't understand what his father meant by that."Come on Henry,I'm surprised you are the one asking this," Williams Storm voiced out with shock evident on his face. He was taken aback that Henry would even ask such a question when Henry and Tony had been enemies for years. It just doesn't make sense."Don't be surprised father. I actually want to know why you will think such of Tony? He had been available when you were kidnapped and structured a plan that brought about your rescue," Henry muttered with anger. He thought since everything had come to this and about how Tony had helped them,his father couldn't see Tony as an enemy but rather a family,but Henry could see how wrong he was."Come on son,Stop being emotional. You are in a competition with Tony and the sooner you realise that the better for you," Williams Storm replie
Chapter 127- THE REJECTION The anger that was simmering within Henry was bigger than a volcano as it tried to burn him out. He was so pissed at his father for not seeing the bigger picture and always trying for a means for them to win and still yet they weren't able to.He had done everything his father wanted,doing his bidding and fighting Tony like a beast but after looking at everything he knew it wasn't worth his stress and he should finally let everything go.Tony walked in heavy feet to his car,hoping to rush home or to anywhere his heart leads him when he heard his phone ringing in his pocket. With frustration,he picked up the phone and placed it on his ears,trying to hear what the caller had to say and be done with it all."Who's it?" He asked,his tone was desperate and anger was simmering from it,"Wow,I'm surprised you have forgotten about me," the deep voice uttered,his voice dripping with irritation at the question Henry was asking him since he thought Henry would know wh
Chapter 128- THE THREAT "You're joking Preston,I'm practically done with you and your selfish desire," Henry shouted and was about to and the call when he heard Preston speak."You can't be done Tony,not until I tell you we are done. Don't dare me Henry," Preston Eduardo threatened. He couldn't believe the mind of Henry and thought he could hop out from what they were both fully involved in.Henry had been the pawn Preston Eduardo was using for so long now. Henry took orders from Preston and was meticulous in carrying out all the orders. Because of how zealous he was,he was practically Preston Eduardo's favourite pawn and he wasn't ready to discard him yet and even if he was,it should be on his terms and not Henry insulting and rendering him as nothing."And if I do,what would you do?" Henry questioned,daring him to speak forth his mind to him."Are you going to kill me or what?" Henry added further while daring Preston Eduardo to deny or accept his accusation."Don't think you have
