Steve put off his car engine, and turned to kaka , who was busy painting red on her lips. He blinked his eyes twice and fixated his gaze on her, staring at her beautiful features.He scans her from head to toe, but wasn't content with the outfit she wore. He felt it was too exposed. It was a mini skirt that stops her mid-thigh and a crop top that covered Just her breasts.He tried to talk her over it, but she didn't give him the attention he needed, and for that reason, he allowed it slide.Kana felt his gaze on her, and spun around to look at him with a smiling face."Why are you staring at me like that?" She asked, pulling him back to the present."I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable. I thought Mrs Anna was the only beautiful woman on earth, I never knew you were two." He complimented, making her blush.'Was that supposed to be a compliment after staring at me for what felt like forever?' Kaka thought."Mr Steve, is that a compliment? Or there's more to it?" She asked, and place b
Billie rushed to the laundry room, where Anna had been crying. She jerked the door open, hurried inside, and pulled her into a hug. "It's okay, I'm here, don't cry, you will be fine, uncle Christ will be back." Billie mumbled, patting her back. Anna has been coming to the house to cry for the five past weeks since he went missing. Most times, Jake accompanied her, but couldn't stop her. She even went ahead to empty his wardrobe and pack them to the laundry room, which he couldn't explain, and couldn't stop her. Kaka, Steve, and Romeo followed behind, they couldn't believe what they were seeing. The laundry room is shattered with Christ's clothes on the floor. "Isn't this Cenzo's clothes? Why are they in here all messed up?" Kaka asked. "Only Billie can answer that question. She was the one who told me Sis has been coming here at night to cry, I never believe until now." Romeo replied. "She looked fine on the outside, I asked if she was okay countless times, and each time I do sh
Anna rested her palms on her face, while Khalifa breaks down sales the team made for the past two days.They were in the middle of conversing, when her secretary stride inside, and diverted their attention to her."I'm sorry to disturb, some cops are here, they're requesting to see you." She informed."Please, quickly, let them inside." Khalifa responded, she nodded, and walked out.Anna gave him a look of are you supposed to do that, but he shrugged and shook the tip of her nose, which made her chortle.She was about to retort, when they heard a knock, and she permitted them to come inside. Two men came into view, wearing their uniforms."How can I help you?" Anna asked instantly, not giving them room to even exchange pleasantries.The cops looked at each other and nodded. "We're from the station, we found your husband's body, please come with us to the hospital to identify his body.""What do you mean they found my husband's body? Who said my husband is dead? You can't come here with
Anna was trying to use her power's but to stop them from dragging her, but she couldn't. Since she conceived, she has been abstaining from using her mind to cause harm because of her unborn child. She's scared of losing her baby.She has abstained from using her power's to avoid killing her child. The last time she almost tried to use it, she lost too much blood, and ever since she's taken precautions.They were still endeavoring to drag her upstairs when Ejimae showed up unannounced."Stop it." He thundered, diverting their attention, and Anita quickly let go.Anna spun around, immediately she saw him, her soul almost left her body, yet she stood strong.Beatrice still clutched her tightly, refusing to let go of her. Ejimae stride closer to her, and the next thing she heard was a resounding slap on her face.That was for disobeying his orders."How dare you slap my mother because of this thing?" Anita spat at him, taking a step back."If I'm still your father, she remains your mother
Christ step out of his car. He fixed his neck tie, and leisurely marched into his wife's company.As he led his way to her office, all eyes were glued to him, astound to see him. His body was said to be missing, but today, out of the blue, he is striding in the mixed of people heading to his wife's office.He got to her office, and her secretary quickly stood up to welcome him."Good morning, sir, she's not inside." She greeted."What do you mean? Did she call in that she won't be coming to the office?" Christ asked.She cast her gaze down, thinking of what to say to him. She overheard Khalifa saying she's nowhere to be found, and she couldn't tell him that."Are you deaf? I'm talking to you, did she call in sick?""Do not shout at her brother, if you miss your wife, what took you so long to come find her?" He heard Steve's voice and spun around.Steve stride towards him with a sad expression on his face. He halt in front of Christ , staring deep in his eyes."Where is my wife, Steve?
SEVEN MONTHS LATERBillie stride to Khalifa's office to drop the documents he quested form her. For the past seven months, ever since Anna got missing and Romeo lost his life, she has been the one who took up Romeo's job.She had to stop the catering she loved to do most, and thanks to kaka who has been coming around to help from time to time.She got to his office, and without knocking, she strode inside with a long face, looking unhappy.Khalifa lifted his head up to look at her. The expression on her face made him heaved a sigh, before he thought of striking a conversation with her."Billie, what's with that face of yours? Are you sick?" Khalifa asked, with raised brows."I'm okay, just a bit tired. You know, I have been working for the whole week."Khalifa stood up and pulled her into a hug, her head rested on her chest, while he strokes her hair."I'm sorry. I just got off the phone with kaka, she will be flying in tomorrow, your work will less when she comes." He assured her, an
Billie trailed behind Christ to his office, pleading with him to work with Ashley, so she can help find Annabelle. But Christ doesn't seem to buy the whole idea. Ashley is the last person he wants to work with, not after what they did to Anna."Uncle Christ please you have to do this for me, I know you miss your wife, work with her please." Billie pleaded, immediately they stride into his office.Christ heaved a sigh, "Ashley is not to be trusted, if you trust her, I don't, not after everything they did to my wife, it's not possible." Christ responded, with his voice a bit loud."Wait, what's with the hatred? Don't tell me this has to do with your relationship with her in the past?" Steve asked.That's the only reason he thinks Christ doesn't want to work with her, not because he can't confide in her."You have to do this for your wife and your unborn child, don't you miss them?" Billie asked, thinking that's the only word that can change his mind.Christ spun around when she made men
Anna sat in front of the mirror, touching her face with foundation, when her soon-to-be husband strode inside the room without knocking.Immediately she heard the door barge open, she cussed underneath her breath. She has complained a thousand times for him to stop making his way inside without her consent, since he has forbidden her from locking the door.As he strides towards her, she drop the brush and stood up to look at him, with a frown on her face."I thought you promised to change? Is this how you want to keep on barging into the room?" She sounded pissed."Why do you have a problem with me not knocking? This is my house, my roof you're in, don't tell me what not to do.""I have every right to, you can't keep treating me like a slave if you want this marriage to work.""Let's not have this conversation, I won't let you ruin my day. If you're done with what you're doing, come to the living room and pick out your wedding gown."Anna's mouth gasped open, at the mention of the wed
