Eric went back home, thinking of what to do. He summoned all his domestic staff and asked them not to reveal James's Absence to anyone, which they all agreed to do.He walked inside his bedroom, picked up the phone, and started thinking of what to do. It has been days since he called Marcus after the quarrel. Marcus too hadn't bothered to call him, as Marcus knew he wouldn't pick up his call. He thought about calling Marcus and swallowing his pride, but it wasn't that easy for him, but it was James that was involved so he summoned up the courage to call Marcus. He was the only one he can confide in this situation, he can come up with tangible advice on what they should do.Marcus picked up on the first ring like he was expecting his call, Eric took a deep breath of relief before saying."I am sorry for calling all of a sudden, but it is urgent," He explained."Do you have to explain like you cannot fall whenever you want to, or do you think I am angry about the quarrel we had over the
After having a little chat with the girls. Gabriel headed to Juliet's place to meet Amanda, they had scheduled a meeting up with the girls who had asked that they take them out but since the news of James' Disappearance, they had canceled the meeting with the girls and had rather scheduled to meet and think of how they would help out in finding him.That morning, Amanda called Gabriel immediately after she saw the news, she was greatly devastated and had been crying. It was Juliet that kept on comforting her that morning.She blamed herself for James' disappearance, saying it might have been a result of his father's change of attitude toward him, and he had told her about it on the phone, but she didn't do anything and only asked him not to worry as his father was only stressed out even as she knew she wasn't saying the truth, she refused to say anything to him."Amanda, it's enough, all we have to do now is to pray that he is okay wherever he is. Since you mentioned that he might hav
Eric looked at Amanda and then at Gabriel. He lacked what to say as they had taken him by surprise. He wasn't expecting her to show up after what happened.He asked them to sit down, which they did before he started walking toward the fridge to get them wine. He came back with a bottle of wine and two glasses, which he placed on the center table and asked them to help themselves.They thanked him before Gabriel poured the wine into the two glasses for him and Amanda. He locked eyes with Amanda before he looked away at Gabriel."I know you were taken by surprise by our coming. We came to help after we heard what happened," Gabriel said."Thank you!" Eric replied dryly, avoiding their eyes."James told me how you changed back to your old self after I left, but I am not here to blame you. I am here to help you find out his whereabouts and I think we have a clue," Amanda said and took a sip from her glass."Last week we saw James and Sophia at the toy store, I visited with my little frien
Eric went to meet Marcus in the regular hotel and immediately he sat with him. His secret agent called."What's the update so far?" He asked."I think Sophia hasn't stayed in her place since the day James went missing, but I have found out where she is staying now, I think James would be there. It is an undisclosed penthouse on the outskirts of the town, she is staying there with David Anderson. Several men are guarding the place. It would be hard for intruders to get in," The secret agent reported."Anderson?" Eric asked with surprise and it dawned on him that Sophia might be working for Anderson or was his lover. He remembered what happened years ago, what happened with his secretary that tried to leak their idea, and what is happening now. He remembered the call too and where the man who called had asked them to meet."Damn! They ain't getting away this time, I promise," Eric said with anger."Keep an eye on them and report back to me whenever you notice any suspicious movement," E
James woke up to the sound of footsteps approaching his room. He knew it was the doctor who had been sent by his mother to inject him with sedatives again. James heard his mother talking to the doctor about the dosage and how she planned to take him along with her to another country just to get bad at his father.James continued to pretend as if he was asleep, hoping the doctor would think he was fast asleep and leave him alone so he could plan his escape.As the doctor entered the room, James kept his eyes closed and listened to his every move. The doctor came closer and stood beside his bed, but James did not move a muscle. After a few seconds, he heard the doctor's footsteps moving away from him. James opened his eyes just in time to see the doctor exit his room, closing the door behind him and he moved, knowing that his plan worked out.James knew this was his chance to escape. He quickly got out of bed and looked around for his shoes but couldn't find them. He took a quick look a
Amanda reached out to Eric to know the situation of things so far in finding James."My secret agent had been trying to reach out to them. He is also looking out for him. I had instructed him to keep an eye on David Anderson, he might be the one making all the moves while Sophia would be watching James," Eric said which Amanda agreed."I will also be doing everything in my power to help out. I and Gabriel had checked almost all the CCTV cameras in search of James. The house is unusually cold. As of today, I don't think James is safe anymore. We got a glimpse of me who came visiting," Amanda reported.Eric informed her of how hard his men were working towards finding James which was very satisfactory to her.He was disturbed himself, he was feeling very bad and had a strong feeling that James wasn't safe too which made him decide to go onlook and in search of him himself. He didn't care if his life would be exposed, besides, Amanda had mentioned he would go with the cops which he had c
On getting close to Anderson's mansion, Eric stopped the car, making the other people do so too."Why are you stopping?" Amanda asked him."It's dangerous, remember the group of dangerous men that were seen entering that building," Eric pointed out."Yeah, I remember," Amanda replied.Eric decided to involve the police in order to have the assurance of safety. He didn't want a case whereby the men would attack and get them injured or hold them captive. He didn't know what Anderson David's plan was and he couldn't tell.He didn't know what he might have planned with Sophia but he knew how dangerous she could be.Eric searched through his phone, looking for the contact of an acquaintance who was a police man, a high-ranked officer in his division. He luckily found it and quickly put a call through him.The police officer picked up after the first ring like he was expecting Eric's call."Hello, Mr Adams! It's been a long time," he said cheerfully over the phone. "How have you been? I kn
Eric drove down to the hospital after meeting Officer Greg who promised to help find Sophia. He was worried sick as he rushed down to the hospital panicking. James was hospitalized, just as Amanda was and the thought of it was driving him crazy.He went to and fro thinking of what to do with the situation. It was now very ugly that he didn't know how to handle it.He thought about Sophia and how wicked she was to do all that she had done, especially to her son. He prayed that the policemen would catch her and get her locked up before she escaped.His phone rang, bringing out his thoughts. He checked it, it was Officer Greg. Eric hurriedly picked it up as he was expecting an update about Sophia and David Anderson."How was the search? Did you get her?" Eric asked with hopeful eyes."She escaped before we could find her but don't worry, we would still catch her. She cannot successfully get away from us. About her flying out of the country, we would submit her picture and information and
