“ You don’t have to, We won’t disturb you ever again I promise” Vanessa said apologetically. Alfred didn’t understand what she meant by that but he had no choice than to give Mara back to Vanessa not because he wanted to. He watched as Vanessa left the store holding Mara so tightly as Mara was trying to break free. She wanted to go with Alfred and not Vanessa and so, she cried as her mum took her out of the store. “ Sir, The meeting is in five minutes” His Assistant said to him and he sighed, Alfred was only starring at the Door Vanessa walked out of. An idea popped in to his head and he looked at His Assistant. “ Follow her and find out where she lives” He said and without hesitating, His secretary made his way out of the store. --------Vanessa had missed the flight, she wanted to cry but couldn’t because of Mara. She had longed and worked hard for that opportunity but she missed it and it was all thanks to Mara. “ I shouldn’t have Fed her with lies” She said to Der
The Aroma coming inside the room woke Vanessa up, she Looked around the room but it didn’t looked like the one she had been living in for years. She rolled her eyes, sitting down properly on the bed. “ Oh, it’s Derek’s house” She looked at the Alarm clock on a table beside the bed and it was 7:03am. “ Oh well, Nowhere to go” She sighed deeply and turned to Mara who was still sleeping soundly. She caressed her Smooth black hair smiling. Vanessa Entered the bathroom, she brushed her teeth , washed her face and came out smiling. “ I’ll continue with my work and start planning to leave This town again.” She said looking at Mara who was still sleeping. The door opened slowly and Derek peeped through the door, Vanessa found that funny she wanted to laugh but held it back so as not to wake Mara up. “ Are you up?” He paused when he saw Vanessa standing in front of the Mirror. “ Oh you’re Up, Good morning” Derek said entering the room. “ And Good morning to you too, Hope
“ I wonder what other things she fed you with. Anyways, let’s get going” He said opening the back door. “ But I want to go with Mummy” Mara insisted. “ Then I’ll go tell your Daddy that you said you don’t want to see him ever again” The Assistant said with a mischievous smile. “ But I didn’t say that” Mara Defended herself. “ Then get in to the car” The Assistant said, Mara looked around and then entered the car. “ You’ll come pick up my Mummy later, right?” She asked him as he closed the door. “ Of course” He said and walked over to the driver’s seat. Immediately he started the car, he saw Vanessa ran out of the house calling Mara’s name, He knew he would be in trouble if Vanessa saw him with Mara and so, He locked the doors and the windows. He started the car and drove past Mara who was standing beside a tree calling Mara’s name. Mara saw her mum, She shouted but Vanessa couldn’t hear or see her because the Windows were all tinted. “ That’s My Mummy, stop the car a
Chapter 11 “ Are you sure?” Vanessa asked helplessly and He Nodded his head. She sighed and supported her head with her palm. “ I hope so” ------7:05pm, Mara opened her eyes, she rolled on the bed and yawned. “ Mummy” She called sitting upright on the bed. “ Where’s Mummy? This isn’t our home. Mara came down from the bed , she wanted to go out of the room but the door handle was too high for her. “ Mummy!” She banged the door with her little fist “ Mummy!!” She screamed. “ Open the door!” Alfred who was working on some papers in the sitting room heard the sound, at first he wondered who that could be but then he remembered little Mara who was in his room. “ Oh, she’s awake” He said smiling. As he was trying to stand up, His maid came out of the kitchen wearing an apron and a cap, she looked at Alfred with fears Written all over her face. She didn’t know when the Assistant brought Mara in to the house and Amy too wasn’t in the house. “ Sir, did you hear that sound and
“ They found her?” Derek asked Worriedly. “ No Derek, I want to go check” She wiped the tears in her eyes and Derek sighed. “ I’m sorry dear, We’ll find her. But you should eat something before going” he tried to hold her and she moved back. “ No Derek, I have to look for Mara. She’s the only one I got” Vanessa cried. “ I know Vanessa, but…” She interrupted him. “ No Buts, Just go to work” Vanessa said walking out of the house. He felt so pity for her, he wished there was something he could do to bring Mara back to Vanessa. -------------- “ Mummy” Alfred turned around and saw that it came from Mara, he had totally forgotten about Mara’s mum and he felt so bad. “ What have I done?” He said looking at Mara who’s talking in her dream. Mara opened her eyes slowly, she moved her head to the right side of the room where Alfred was and their eyes met. “ Daddy, where’s Mummy?” Mara asked sitting upright, she rolled her eyes with her index Fingers and Yawned. Alfred didn’t
A maid Entered the kitchen holding a mop bucket, She put down the bucket and leaned her back on the door. She looked at Bella Who was toasting the bread and signaled to her, Bella got her message and she Chuckled. She continued what she was doing not wanting to do what the other maid wanted her to do. The maid seeing that Bella won’t do that, Walked closer to where Mara was sitting on the Table. She touched Mara's face Smiling. “ You are so beautiful” She said to Mara and Mara nodded her head. “ Yes I know” She said. The maid giggled, Mara looked so cute as she spoke and also smart. “ Can I ask little Mara a question?” The maid asked and Bella turned around. She signaled to her to stop bug she Looked away. “ Yes, Mara will answer if she know” She took another bite again. “ What are you with the Boss?” She asked. “ He’s my Daddy” Mara answered and Bella dropped the spoon she was holding. “ Your Daddy, you mean the Boss is your Daddy?” The maid asked and Marfa nodded
Chapter 14 “ I’m sorry miss but we will find her” The officer said to her. Derek knelt beside her as she cried her heart out. After some minutes, they left the station. “ Something doesn’t seem right” Derek said and Vanessa turned to him. She sniffed and nodded her head “ Yes” She said and he paused. “ Vanessa, don’t you think Mara followed someone?” He asked and Vanessa Chuckled. “ Who? She don’t even know anyone” She said and continued walking. “ Didn’t you see anything odd when you went out of the house to look for Vanessa yesterday?” Derek asked and Vanessa Paused. She did saw a car the previous day and it was a familiar car but she paid no attention to it. “ Yes I saw a car that looks familiar” She said. “ Who do you think owns the car?” Derek asked and Vanessa’s eyes opened widely. “ The Billionaire she Called her Daddy! Oh no! No!” “ Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” Derek asked and Vanessa nodded her head. “ Yes, He kidnaped my Mara” She started running ba
Chapter 15 “ You this little……” Alfred interrupted him. “ Enough! Stop Bullying the little Kid” The Assistant jaw dropped, He never thought Alfred would shun him that way because of that little Devil. “ You heard my Daddy, Stop bullying me” Mara added. The Assistant sat properly, he didn’t utter a word again because he was pained that Mara was beginning to enter in to their lives. “ I don’t like this girl” He murmured under his breath.Few Minutes later, they arrived at the Hospital. It was a very Big one, The Assistant Quickly came out of the car and opened the Door for Alfred. Alfred Came out, he beckoned on him to carry Mara inside the Hospital. The Assistant wasn’t happy about carrying Mara “ She can walk” He said in such a way that Alfred wouldn’t hear him. “ Just carry me” Mara commanded and he but his upper lip Angrily. “ I’ll only carry you because the Boss said that” He said Carrying her up. “ Yes and you have no choice” Mara Smiled. As Soon as Alfre
