Ormond searched his brain for an excuse to Aaliyah but his brain was not producing one at the pace he wanted. He stared a bit longer than normal at Aaliyah and she raised a suspicious brow at his growing silence. It didn't take long for Aaliyah to feel dizzy, she began to see Ormond in several places, the floor spun before her eyes and merged with the well patterned POP ceiling. "Are you ok?" Ormond asked rushing to her side when he saw the way she swayed.Aaliyah could barely understand the way she felt. Her limbs were nunb and her mind hazy.She was slowly loosing consciousness of her reality again. No matter how hard she fought to regain control of herself she could not."What is happening to me?" Aaliyah beckoned as she fell into Ormond's strong hands."I think it's the trauma from yesterday." He guided her carefully before lifting her off the floor when she could not move."You have to be really careful." Freya cautioned Ormond, a face mask over her face and a spray bottle in he

Lord Gullathova had made a mental note to up the security of the Gullathova Mansion and his close family members but when he got home the night before and heard of Aaliyah's absence, he had been so worried through the night that he didn't effect any change.Lord Gullathova had remained in the sitting room till dawn and had not stopped spitting treats when Aaliyah didn't return before breakfast. His mind had played games on him especially because they had shut down all the cameras in the city so he could not track her movement after she left the restaurant where she had dinner with Ric and the others.The night before was a blank spot in timeNo one had breakfast and everyone paced the floor so hearing that there was a guest, Lord Gullathova was skeptical even if Aaliyah was back already."Did you get his details?" Lord Gullathova asked cautiously."No Sir, he would not say anything about his identity. He said to give you this." The card handed a small card to Lord Gullathova, it looked

Melissa looked at the phone severally. Ric hanging up without saying a word only confirmed her suspicions."Damn it! How did I miss it that Ric was the short form of Ricardo?" Melissa was angry at herself for overlooking such an obvious detail."What is his damn surname?" Melissa fumbled with her phone to call her Dad. She had not changed her surname after marrying Ric so she never really knew his surname.When she repeatedly tapped on the finger print on the screen and the phone won't just light up like a bulb, she discovered she had a low battery and her phone had actually gone off.The line went dead on her end first was what she then realised.Her mind became even more disturbed, what will he think of her ending the call on him?She needed to power her phone immediately and speak to Ric, she needed to convince him that she truly loved him, she needed to mend her relationship with him before he married that Gullathova girl; Aaliyah.Melissa rummaged her bags and found nothing. Her p

When Arizona got outside, she saw Melissa drive off."Melissa! Melissa!" Arizona tried to run after Melissa's car but she did not meet up, especially because two extra cars had driven behind Melissa making it impossible for Melissa to see Arizona through the rear view mirror.Unable to catch up, Arizona stopped and sighed. She regretted her decision and choice of words."Oh Mel, please don't be angry with me, I should have not responded to you that way." Arizona felt a bit sad as she stood a bit dejected soliloquizing.In the car, Melissa drove steady, her heart thumping fast in her ribcage. Her pulse irregular as she feared her fate. Worst still her phone was completely out so there was no way she could text anyone for help secretly.Sweaty palms held the wheel tight as Melissa followed after the vehicle in front of her.They got to a traffic stop and Melissa had a crazy idea pop up in her head, she could quietly unbuckle her seat belt and slip out of the car and get lost between the

Melissa had been summoned by the Boss, she did not need a soothsayer to tell her who was standing in front of her, he had exact same features as her Ex husband Ric and for his hair, he had the same style and suit on as she had just seen but the only difference was that he was a bit more muscular.Melissa had lived with Ric for several years so despite the similarities, she knew that the man before her was not her Ex husband even if he worked out to attain this stature.His jaw line was not as defined and his accent was not fluid, he was not Ric, he was not her Ex husband.That was when Melissa knew she had made a mistake."Answer me!" He barked, making Melissa jump a bit, her eyes went hide with fear and her knuckles turned white as he took calculated strides towards her.Melissa in turn, took receeding steps until the back of her leg collided with something and she almost fell over the side table if Mr. Maximilanno did not save her on time."Are you mad? Are you trying to get yourself
