Meanwhile.......

The prison cells -dungeons- were at the very lowest level of the Military base, beneath the graveyard levels where thousands of buried dead rested in silence.

The cells were reserved for the worst of criminals: assassin's gone rogue, betrayals who broke the Covenant Law, soldiers who betrayed or violated the military covenant rules. Diana as none of those things. How could Mark even suggest sending her there? Oh yeah, she was set up.

The darkness of the military base dungeons was more profound than any darkness Diana had ever known. She couldn’t see the shape of her own hand in front of her eyes, couldn’t see the floor or ceiling of her dungeon. What she knew of the cell, she knew from the torchlit first glimpse she’d had, guided down here by a contingent of soldiers, who had opened the barred gate of the dungeon for her and ushered her inside as if she were a common criminal. Then again, that’s probably exactly what they thought she was. A criminal who tried to para

    Last week when Richarlison gave the letter that the DNA paternity test was attached, to the president general, Mark he wondered how Jake was able to carry out the test without the children and consent of their mother... Even Diana wondered as well."It's making more sense.... Jake is obviously the one who sent those bastards to collect strands of hair from the kids...... And if he did the test using that, he obviously is their father.... But the test could be faked!"Mark had no evidence or anything substantial to pursue the issue, thus he set up his secret military officers to monitor Jake's move incase of anything.Diana was only very afraid that Jake was going to claim custody of her kids, but she had a silly plan.

He could sense the antipathy in Diana's facial expressions. who wouldn't be angry? He let her stay in the dungeon for a whole week. He then said, "Your children wowed me. They saved you from getting executed, and that's pretty really impressive". He praised the kids. Diana blushed and wanted to say "Thank you " before Mark could say another word but she was too late, "However, you're not yet vindicated...." He added in-between."I hope you're recuperating speedily already?" He paused for some time letting the question register in Diana, expecting some honest reply but she kept silent staring at him. Mark found himself concerned about her well being all of a sudden...,"What's wrong? Why are you staring at me that way?" He inquired as he was getting uncomfortably

He had instructed Richarlison to wait for him outside here as he didn't plan on staying inside for long. "Boss!" Richarlison greeted. Despite the business relationship they had as boss and worker they had come to a point as close friends and they both talked like friends but however, that was seasonal.He didn't get a respond from him as he was obviously lost in thought. He noticed the slight change on his boss face. His usual upstage expression looked like it is been troubled."Boss!" Richarlison called out to him again, but this time, a bit louder.It jolted him out of his thoughts."Oh..sorry, I was absent minded!" He explained."You look worried. I hope all is well?"

    Mark woke up the next morning with Hannah resting on his broad chest. She was completely naked, just as he was completely naked, as well.He blinked his eyes to be sure of what he was seeing.."No. No.. This can't be happening!" He widened his eyes, and pushed Hannah off him, and then he sprang off the bed, almost forgetting he still had nothing on to cover his "staff of destruction", so big!. "Shit!" He immediately grabbed for his underwear just lying down on the floor and quickly wore it. He glanced around the room and saw a brassiere and a pink pant and the clothes Hannah wore last night scattered around the bedroom. Hannah still sleeping like a new born baby."What had happened?" He heard himself say.. standing bolt upright with his heart going like a trip-hammer, sure he had no idea why he was naked and also Hannah's underwear scattered around the room, directly saying she is naked also.He immediately started towards her and started shaking her awake out of an already fitful slee

Look where you're going!!-" Mark initially heard himself say out loudly and it ended quietly and gently."Clancy? The lady she left at the alter?" He thought he must be seeing things but the again she had come back to Sterling City as a reputable powerful attorney and eventually Diana hired her to help her with the case of her children."Hi!" Diana greeted Clancy who was equally shocked as Mark. Her face trying to regain composure but the crystal clear images from that night wouldn't easily let it. "Hi???" Clancy stuttered, trying to respond to Diana.Diana being quite a sensitive lady could actually discern something was bothering her at the moment thus she offered, "Anything the issue? Are you fine?

    With an utter state of melancholic depression Diana requested, "Can you help me find them?"Mark looked at Diana coldly, trying not to show any bit of his emotions. He was as well frustrated and dejected. "It's easy to guess who is behind the kidnap.." Mark asserted and signalled for Richarlison for them to be on their way. "Let's go to Einstein school and see what clue we may have there...." Mark added after letting what he initially said sink in into Diana's seat of thoughts. "How come she didn't think that way before now? It was obviously her ex husband, she was quick to point out. Who else would be interested in her kids if not him? Who would thought he would go this far?... Since the judges adjourned the case, it definitely must have aroused an unquenchable taste and hunger like desperation within Jake.Diana gritted her teeth, squinted her eyes and clenched her fist in full anger.

    " Kill her!" "Execute her!""Make her experience the most gruesome death!"The crowd started to chant, it was not a surprise to all of them that someone such as Diana could commit such a big crime. Afterall, they are trained to never trust anyone."Silence!" Mark walked up to the microphone and said coldly. He was finding it hard to believe, yes, he had seen Diana and her mum walking towards that direction.

She turned and surprisingly it was Flora. The president generals mother."Hi!!!!" She said with a forced smile. She didn't like Diana from the onset because the love she ought to be getting from her son were all going straight to her or atmost being shared between the both of them.Yes, she was that kind of mother..."Hi, Good evening ma'am!" Diana greeted respectfully, even though Flora ought to be the one to greet her.In the military base, age is just a number... Even if you're 70, it's your duty to obey your superior even if he or she is 10 years old."How are you?

And yea, I understand why. You care for her much more than you do for me!" Flora again broke the silence. As she walked all over the room."I'm sorry mum, she is going through alot and I need to be by her side.... Her ex-husband has just legally taken her Triplets away from her..." Mark explained and then seized the opportunity to backlash his mum for abandoning him."She cares for them... Unlike some people I know...." He added as he leaned over to Diana who was changing her sleeping posture. He thought something had gone wrong with her or unsettled her - that explains how deep he cares for her -Flora was sensitive and she knew Mark was getting at her with what he said. It was indeed wrong for her to have left him all alone..she failed. Even his dad failed
