The next day arrived and I was already up by five. If I was going to get the job then I had to keep punctuality in mind.

I was just getting out of the bathroom when I heard some movement in my room. I stopped and listened for any sound that might convey its source.

After a short while, the sound came again but a bit more silent. There was someone under my bed.

I continued what I was doing and pretended not to have noticed anything. Just as I was looking through my wardrobe, a little breeze came behind my ear and I knew exactly what this person's intention was.

With a swift movement of my leg, I gave Mustapha a kick in the balls. I heard him fall to the floor but I behaved as if nothing happened.

"I told you to stay out of my room didn't I?" I asked Mustapha, without turning away from my wardrobe.

"How did you know I was coming?" he asked me.

I turned around in his direction and went on one knee, staring down at him, "you better improve on your ambush, or better still, don't tes

    "Madam?" the security man said, unsure if he heard what he heard right. "You heard me. I said beat her up." Mrs. Wilson said, even though Tamira didn't understand what was happening but she did not react to the words of her mother. "Your daughter?" the security man still dared to ask. "You are fired." Mrs. Wilson said to the security man who replied to her with a look of shock in his eyes. "Hey, you." Mrs. Wilson called out to a maid who was only passing by. "Yes madam?" the maid answered as she stopped and came closer to Mrs. Wilson. "Go and get me one of my security guards." Mrs. Wilson said to the maid. "Yes madam." the maid said and left. "What are you still doing here?" Mrs. Wilson asked the man who she had just fired. Still unaware of what was going on, he turned and left without a word. Soon the maid returned with a different security guard, "here he is madam." the maid said. With a wave of the hand, Mrs. Willson signed the maid to go. "Don't make the same mistake as t

    "What do you mean no?!" Tamira asked, angrily. "Miss Tamira please do not make my job any more difficult than it already is. I was told by your mother to always be by your side." I replied. "Ugh!" Tamira screamed and came out of the car. I also came out of her car. She stood there doing and saying nothing and then she returned inside. I understood she did not want me around but this step was strange. Where was it that she wanted to go alone anyways? I followed her inside and was always close behind until she entered her room and I had to stand outside. About a minute later, I heard a buzz, and then her voice sounded in a whisper. I couldn't properly get what she was saying even after placing my ear on the door. The door suddenly opened but I stood strong on my ground and acted as if nothing happened. "Are you not going anywhere anymore?" I asked Tamira. "What business is that of yours?" she questioned back and then shut the door again. I signed in relief and decided not to eaves

    I took a step backward in shock at my discovery, "You..." I said. I didn't understand what was happening at all.Alex was still alive and well. He was standing right in front of me. Someone I had watched die was standing right in front of me."Do you know him?" Tamira, who was looking confused, asked me.I snapped out of my thoughts and tried to fake as if nothing happened, "No." I answered Tamira."Who is this?" Alex asked Tamira. Tamira looked me over in annoyance."Just the bodyguard that mother hired to follow me about. Even after leaving without his notice, he still found me." Tamira replied to Alex."Mother what?! Damn it Tamira! He is going to tell on us!" Alex said to Tamira, in panic."About her meeting up with her lover boy? Yes. Yes, I will report back to the madam. I am sure to get a raise with such details." I said, faking ignorance of who he was to Tamira."He is not my lover," Tamira said."He is my brother who traveled away for some time. He was just avoiding our mothe

    "Why don't you want to tell us who you are? You already know everything about us and you can trust us too." Tamira said. "I am afraid I cannot do that. My identity must remain a secret." I replied. "But why?" Tamira asked. I came closer to Tamira and looked her straight in the eyes, "I cannot tell you who I am right now. But I can assure you that you will not regret being my wife. We stared at each other for a full minute before Alex's voice broke in and we snapped out of it, " Don't tell me you are thinking about considering what he said." Alex said to Tamira. "I don't know why Alex, but I trust him," Tamira replied to Alex. "I will follow with what you want as long as you can assure me we will get divorced once I find Devon," Tamira said to me. Her words were so touching. She never forgot me even after those five months of uncertainty if I would return or not. However, I will make sure to tell her everything once this is all over. "It's a deal," I said and shook her hand. "Y

    "Madam is there a problem?" I asked her. "Shut up!" If you speak again I will push you out of this car!" Mrs. Wilson yelled at me. I laughed at her inwardly. We arrived at the mansion and she stumped inside angrily until she entered her room and slammed the door heavily. I could only laugh as I watched her. Mrs. Wilson POV : How possible can this be? I knew that Devon looked so familiar. What information about me must he secretly be feeding my daughter in that place? I searched through the box under my bed and took out a picture of Devon. I placed it on my bed and then went to search through the bottom drawer of my wardrobe. After a while, I found what I was looking for and I had to compare the two pictures. Long have I hidden this picture, a picture of the couple I killed. The couple that used to live in that same spot as I saw today. I looked at the photo of the husband and wife and then their son. I looked at the picture of Devon, back to the couple's son, and then back at D

    "What are you talking about mom? What do you mean by Alex?" Tamira asked Mrs. Wilson. "What sort of a question is that?! Are you crazy or something?!" Mrs. Wilson replied. Tamira looked strangely at her mother and went closer to her. Holding Mrs. Wilson's hand in hers, she looked deep into Mrs. Wilson's eyes, "mom, I understand that Alex left home for a long time and you miss him a lot but this is too much." Tamira said to Mrs. Wilson. "What the hell are you trying to say?!" Mrs. Wilson yelled. Tamira burst into tears and sat weakly on her bed. I knew and understood what Tamira was playing at and so I joined in, "madam, my apologies for getting involved in your family issue but is everything okay with you? Miss Tamira here was only talking to a friend of hers on the phone." I said. "Yes! And you heard her say Alex did you not?!" Mrs. Wilson asked me. "No madam. She said, Camila." I replied Mrs. Wilson. "Are you trying to mess with my head?" Mrs. Wilson asked me. "I know what I

    I took a bath and returned to the living room. There was no one and so I figured they would be in the dining room.I stooped to a maid and asked her for directions to the dining table and she gladly guided me. I reached there and all three members of the family were having breakfast.I went to stand behind Tamira's seat and watched as they all ate."Can you just give me some space?" Tamira asked me."Yes miss Tamira." I answered and took a step back, "Gosh! Not like that. I meant you should go away. Allow me to eat in peace without having you spoil my appetite by being here. I am not going anywhere yet so don't bother me while I am eating." Tamira complained.Before moving to any other place, I had to look over at Mrs. Wilson for her permission. Mrs. Wilson gave me an approving nod and I left.I quickly got bored of standing in the living room and decided that maybe I would go to Mrs. Wilson's room and search just a little while she ate in the living room.I made a step towards the st

    I threw Xavier's hand down and watched as he stood speechless and stared down at the mess I made on the floor. "Bravo, well put." Mrs. Wilson's voice sounded, just as I had expected it to. "Though I never expected you to treat my son that way that was very impressive." Mrs. Wilson said to me. "Thank you, Mrs. Wilson," I said. "But there is yet another thing I do not understand." Mrs. Wilson added. "How is it that you are not surprised?" she asked me and I grinned. "Anyone with a brain would have predicted this to happen, Mrs. Wilson," I said to Mrs. Wilson and then looked at Xavier. "Your son here doesn't look like one to show love and kindness to his employees, or rather in this case, his mother's employee. That was why it was easy to figure out that the whole thing was only a test by you." I explained. "Interesting. You have the brain for that job of yours." Mrs. Wilson. "Almost towards a suspicious point," Xavier said as he walked up to me. We stared at each other, eyeball t

    "Okay. I'll go now." I said to mother. "Be careful," she replied as she waved at me. I went from enough and then hid among the trees before changing into city clothes. I found my eyes in the city and although I was amazed at what it looked like, I felt familiar with it. I breathed in some air and then coughed. What was that? I turned and saw a car. Smoke was coming out of the other end. I ran away from it and I almost got hit by another one which was passing by. I ran out of the way and after I did, I saw the car reverse and stop. A door opened and I ran into hiding. I watched from my hiding spot as a man came out of the car and began to yell. "Tamira," he said. I watched him give up and return to the car. The car drove away and I came out of where I was hiding. Was that man going to run me over on purpose? And how crazy can the people here get? Just came out and shouted then returned to his car. Strange. I strolled around the city, making sure not to forget the road I took to

    ... *FLASHBACK* TAMIRA POV: Mrs Wilson jammed me off the road and as my car crashed, some part of it jammed into my stomach. I crept out of my car in great pain. I already regretted trying to escape on my own in the first place but maybe it's better than another day with that witch. I lay on my back on the floor and the last image I saw was Mrs Wilson's face staring down at me as she stood over me triumphantly. My eyes shut down and all around me was nothing but darkness. *After that moment*I opened my eyes and found myself in a strange place. "Where... Where am I?" I questioned as I sat up and placed my palm on my aching forehead. I looked around from where I was seating up and saw that I was in some sort of shelter that looked like huts from tribes in the old days. I tried to get off what I took to be the bed but my stomach pains struck and I screamed. A woman ran into the hut."Are you alright?!" she exclaimed. I shifted away from her as she stepped closer. "Who are you?" I a

    "Devon stop! Stop it!" Jason shouted and dragged me to himself. I began to punch Jason in the stomach but Jason held me tight in a hug. Tears escaped my eyes and soon I weakened. "I love her so much Jason. How can I live without her? What good is the money without her?" I whispered. I knew Jason was in pain from the punches I gave him but he did not bring it up, "you have to let her go Devon. You have to." Jason said to me, softly and I cried. "She is not dead. And I will find her." I said. I parted from Jason and looked at Mrs Wilson one last time. "Let's go," I said to them and turned away, heading out of the building. It was another one-hour drive before I reached what was now known to be my mansion instead of the Wilsons'. Mr Hamilton had already gone back home. I was about to walk into my home when Jason stopped me, "if you want I can stay back. Just to keep you company." Jason said to me. "Thank you. But I think I'll stay alone." I replied. Jason stood there until I closed

    With the speed I was in, it didn't take long before I reached the police station. I hopped out of my car and pushed away the officer who wanted to approach me. I passed the gates and entered the main building. "Where is she?!" I asked the first officer I saw in the police station. "Where is who?" he questioned me. "Mrs Wilson! Where is she?!" I answered. "Why are you looking for her sir?" the officer asked me, not minding how I barged in. I left the officer standing there and went in to look through the cells. "I know you are here Mrs Wilson Wilson! Show yourself right now!" I shouted. I searched all the cells but failed to find her. I came out and walked straight to the officer I had left and I grabbed him by the collar. "How come she is not in there?! So you people dared to release her?! Die she find extra money to bribe you with?!" I yelled at the officer. "Call down sir!" the officer exclaimed. "You dare tell me to calm down?!" I replied, ready to throw a punch at his fa

    "Me Devon Wilson." someone among them said my name. All the people present in the meeting got up and did not stop staring at me. "We never thought we would be in the same room with the next big thing," he spoke again. "Yes. The next big thing." Mr Hamilton said and walked towards me. After reaching where I was, Mr Hamilton saw Gale and Jason standing t the door. Mr Hamilton glared at Gale and then turned to me, "Sir what are you doing here?" Mr Hamilton asked me. "I came to ask you about Tamira," I answered. "Right now? Mr Devon, I thought I already told you about it. What happened in the past." Mr Hamilton said, almost in a whisper. We both spoke in a tone that we wouldn't be heard by the people from the meeting. "Not that Mr Hamilton. I need to find her right now." I said to Mr Hamilton. "What?!" Mr Hamilton exclaimed and then placed his hand over his mouth when he realized he shouted it. "Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen." Mr Hamilton said and came out of the meeting room wit

    Just as I said that to Jason, I received a call. "Who is it?" Jason asked me. "I don't know. It doesn't say." I answered Jason. I answered the call and placed the phone on my ear, "hello?" I said. "Hello, Devon. How is your new life treating you?" the caller said. I recognized the voice to be Grenade's and I parked the car. "You bastard. Where are you?" I said to Grenade. "Who's that Devon?" Jason asked again. "It's Grenade," I answered Jason. "By the tone of your voice, I can tell you already know." Grenade said to me. "Yes, I know! How long did you think you could hide your real personality? So you were working with Mrs Wilson the entire time?!" I replied. I heard Grenade laugh from the other side of the phone, "I was once loyal but where did that get me? Nowhere! I worked next in command to Mr Cranston and what did that old fool do?! He gave all his money, all his property, to some newbie!" Grenade yelled. "And you. You of all people! You got all that and didn't even thin

    "Let's just make the most of it while we still can," Jason suggested. "How do you mean?" I asked Jason. "You have a quintillion dollars cooling in your account. What do you mean how?" Jason asked me. I got what he was trying to say, "I'm not sure if it's in my account or still in Mr Wilson's account. After all, I was only told that I had a quintillion dollars in my name." I said to Jason. "Then we should ask the bodyguards about it," Jason replied. "They are just my bodyguards. What would they know?" I questioned Jason. "Let's just ask. You'll never know till you try." Jason said to me. "Call them over and ask," Jason added. I did as Jason said and called them over, "about the money I have in my name, do any of you guys know if it's in my bank account or Mr Wilson's bank account?" I asked the bodyguards. "It has already been transferred into your account hours back sir." one of the bodyguards answered me. That was fast... "See? They knew. So let's go." Jason said, excitedly.

    We all sat down, except the bodyguards who remained standing. "So what is all the going on? And my friend here said something about quintillion. I don't understand anything that is happening." I said to Mr Hamilton. "Calm down sir. You will understand it all soon enough. I will explain it to you." Mr Hamilton said. "You see, Mr Wilson had always been a close friend of mine. He shared all his plans with me and I was a loyal and good enough friend to keep all he told me secretly. I knew about the switch since the beginning." Mr Hamilton said to me. "What switch?" I asked Mr Hamilton. "The switch that was made at your birth. You are the son of Mr Wilson. He soon found out about you but only after his wife had already killed your parents." Mr Hamilton explained. "He knew who I was this entire time?!" I exclaimed. "Yes." Mr Hamilton answered. "But then why didn't he say or do anything? He just let me live in poverty! He let me live with someone I thought was my uncle and he didn't

    Jason forced his way through and two hefty men shut the door behind him and blocked the door from being passed by others. "What's going on here?" I asked Jason, a bit in panic. "Devon you've made it! You have finally made it big. No, you made it fat!" Jason said to me. "What? I don't understand what you are trying to say." I told Jason. "You are mad rich! Crazy rich! Bastard rich! You have a quintillion dollars in your name! The first ever to be discovered!" Jason shouted in excitement. My eyes widened in shock, "how?!" I asked in amazement. "I was shocked too but it was true!" Jason shouted and shook me back and forth with his hands on my shoulders. "Ouch!" I shouted. "Oh, sorry," Jason said and then took deep breaths trying to calm himself down. "So can you now explain to me?" I asked Jason. "No-no-no," Jason answered. "Mr Wilson's lawyer will explain everything better," Jason told me. "You mean late Mr Wilson's lawyer?" I asked, unsure of what I heard him say. "Yes," Ja
