"Where could Anna be?" Amanda thought worriedly and immediately rushed out of her apartment and decided to go look for Anna in their house."Hey." Amanda knocked on the door but she heard no reply instead what she got in reply was a silent sob which made her frown She twisted the door knob and the door opened which shows that the door wasn't looking. Amanda walked into the house intending to tell Anna that Marcus was worried about her but she was surprised to see Anna and her aunt kneeling on the floor."You cheap beggars, you still don't have our money today, do you? If you don't pay our money today, we are going to break every single thing in the house." Two men yell and threaten Anna and her aunt. One of the men was fat and short while the other was thin and tall. The men continue to yell at Anna and her aunt to pay up the money they borrow which made Anna's aunt's children begin crying "You damn leeches. You know I owe you no more. You're just trying to suck money off us. We
"Are you okay?" Eric asked Amanda with a worried expression. Since the incident with the loan sharks a few minutes ago, Amanda had fallen quiet."I'm fine," Amanda uttered in a sincere voice but Eric doesn't believe her."Let's check that in the hospital," Eric uttered worriedly."Eric, I'm really fine," Amanda replied."No. You look weak and that seems worrying. I have to take you to the hospital to check your health." Eric says with a frown but Amanda who wasn't sick and was just trying to take a rest replies. "Eric I'm really fine I don't want to go to the hospital." Despite Amanda's protest, Eric asked the driver to drive to the hospital, and at the end of the day, she had no option but to follow him to the hospital Inside a white ward, Amanda was being diagnosed by the doctor. A few minutes later, the doctor was done and he placed his stethoscope on his neck "Doctor, is she fine?" Eric asked worriedly. The doctor nodded and smiled, "Yes Mr. Eric, Miss Amanda is doing fine. Y
It was very quiet in the car except that there was the sound of Eric angrily typing on his keyboard. Eric was extremely silent which made the atmosphere in the car weird and made Amanda more worried. And that made her curious and want to know more about Eric's ex-wife. Both of them soon arrived at Amanda's apartment and Amanda quietly stood up from the car to get down from the car but before she could, she saw Eric staring at her solemnly."Goodnight. I'm leaving." She muttered calmly."Okay." Eric nodded. "Good night." He said and continued to stare at her.Amanda was taken aback but she waved at him. "You can leave," Amanda told Eric. Eric shook his head because he wanted to see her enter the house, first. "I want you to enter the apartment in my presence." He said which made Amanda chuckle. Even though Eric was angry he still cared about her safety and tried to prevent Amanda from staying outside."Okay. Good night." Amanda told Eric and shut the car door not wanting to delay h
Eric carried Amanda to bed and checked her pulse, luckily she was still breathing. He picked up the phone to call his family doctor to come to check up on her.He was a little bit panicking as he dialed the doctor's phone number."Hello, Mr. Adam!" The doctor's voice came from the other side."Hello, please can you come over? My girlfriend needs your attention, she passed out all of a sudden," Eric explained."Okay, have you checked her pulse to know if she is still breathing?" The doctor asked."Yes I have and she is breathing. Please leave whatever you are doing and come over right now," Eric urged, pacing up and down the room."I will be on my way immediately, Mr. Adam," the doctor said before Eric ended the call, breathing in relief as the doctor agreed to come.She looked at Amanda who was still unconscious and continued pacing up and down the room, thinking of what to do.She was healthy and looked healthy, he remembered that they had gone to visit the hospital together previous
James went to Amanda's room to check up on her immediately after he got out of bed. He met her while still asleep in her room.She had woken up as the doctor stated but she was too weak to have a discussion with him which forced him to stay away and later retire to his room feeling sad. He hoped to talk with her the next day but she was still asleep.James decided not to go to school so he would stay with her at home. He went to the living room to sit and watch TV.Eric, who had walked down the stairs to get something from the kitchen, saw James sitting on a couch. He was still dressed in his pajamas and looked like he wasn't going to school.He headed towards his direction and came to stand in front of him after switching off the TV."You should be preparing for school, James," Eric said looking at him."Auntie Amanda is still not sound. I don't want to go to school, I want to look after her here at home," James said with a sad expression."James, I understand how you feel but she wi
Eric went to the club to meet Marcus after he rounded up what he was doing in the office. He followed the address sent by Marcus. He met Marcus waiting patiently at a table in the club for him.They exchanged pleasantries before he joined him."What took you so long Man?" Marcus asked him. Eric has stayed almost an hour instead of thirty minutes to show up."I had more documents to check out. I had to carefully scan through them in order to avoid making a mistake. My apologies," Eric said as he grabbed the wine bottle and helped himself."Okay, how is Amanda doing? I could remember you calling me last night to tell you about how she passed out when you guys got home," Marcus said as he remembered when Eric called him the previous night, informing him about what happened with Amanda.He was the one that gingered him to find out who was after Amanda's life in order to stop everything that was happening to her.Eric had agreed and decided to hire another secret agent, adding to the one h
Sophia sat lazily in the sitting room, attending to her nails while thinking of everything that happened in Eric's company. He had refused her to go in so they could meet. She laughed as she knew he can never avoid her forever because there is a child between the both of them.She knew she had betrayed him in the past and deserved any ill-treatment he would give her but at least she only requested an audience between them. She wasn't going to kill him or take James away. She laughed as she continued thinking about it, knowing that one day Eric would be forced to face her. She would make sure of that.She waved for a maid to come over and the maid did. "Prepare my bath. I want to have a bath in the next thirty minutes. Let's be warm. Add a lot of scented flowers and nerve calming antidotes okay?" She instructed."Yes ma'am!" The maid said and bowed before leaving to carry out Sophia's instruction.She looked at her beautiful milky skin and fine long legs which she adored so much. It
It was a bright beautiful morning. Eric decided to make it up to James for what happened between them by driving him to school.After James was done preparing for school, he walked into his room to meet him. He met him arranging his books into his backpack. On sighting Eric, James frowned. He was yet to forget what happened, he knew his dad was there to apologize but he chose to act like he didn't see him come inside."Good morning son!" Eric cheerfully called out as he strode to him with a charming smile plastered on his face. James looked away and pretended like he didn't hear Eric. He continued arranging the books into his backpack."Hey! I know you are still angry about what happened yesterday. I am here to apologize," Eric said, standing beside him while looking at him.James didn't look at him and still continued arranging the books, acting like he wasn't there with him."C'mon son, I am sorry. I apologize. Don't try to act so stubborn," Eric said to him and placed his hand on t
