Chapter 32Emma woke up and dashed to the toilet to relieve herself. She felt like the baby was sitting on her bladder. She had very little control over it and just taking a small amount of water brought the urge to use the toilet. She moved back to the room after washing her hands and sat on the bed. She was exhausted and hungry which was why she did not notice the phone on the bedside table until it had reached the ground. She was lucky there was a rug on the floor to cushion the fall. She picked the phone up and checked to see if there were any cracks. She had no idea whose phone it was.'Perhaps it belongs to Brandon?' she thought to herself and with that thought in mind, she moved out of the room, downstairs to locate Brandon. Maybe he had forgotten it, she thought to herself as she walked down the stairs. But then, the scent of something delicious wafted through her nose and she traced the aroma to the kitchen where she saw a lady whom she suspected as the cook, placing chicken

Chapter 34Bang!Godson looked up at the person who just walked into his office like she owned it. She was brimming with anger and he really had no time for her now. Even after the news that had been released, he had still not heard anything from Emma. He wasn't so sure his grandfather's decision this time was right. There was no way Emma would keep silent about the Hugo issue especially with the way she stormed out of his office the last time that had all spoken. Godson planned on giving her one more day before he stormed her home. "What the fuck have you guys been doing?" Lydia gritted out as she approached his desk."What do you mean?" He asked her with a bored gaze.She laughed and then asked him "What do I mean?" "I'm not sure we can have a perfect conversation if you continue behaving like this." He said to her,"Fuck you, Godson. I should never have listened to you. It's because of you I was so lax in keeping track of her. I should have known something happened to her." Lydia

Chapter 36"I don't want to stay seated anymore. I need air or something." Emma said to Helen."But, Mr Silver did not say anything. Maybe I should ask him?" Helen asked as she moved to pick up her cell phone."What? There is absolutely no need for that. And besides, we are just going to get groceries and nothing else. There is absolutely no need to tell Brandon." Emma said to her."I'm not so sure about this.""Please. I'm tired of staying here and doing nothing except watching television and browsing the internet."Helen knew there was no way she was going to win the argument so she relented. But they had not gotten too far when a very familiar vehicle pulled up in front of Brandon's home.Emma knew who was in the vehicle but she had no idea how the person had found out where she was staying currently. She turned to move back into the building but the person in the vehicle came down and stormed towards her."Don't you fucking dare?" He said to her in anger.Helen frowned. She was su

Chapter 38Brandon disconnected the call and gave Emma his full attention. "Emma." He started but she interrupted him."Was that about my mother?" She asked him."Emma..""Answer the question, Brandon. Was that about my mother?" She asked him in a stern voice.She held unto the hope that the conversation she had just heard was not about her mother. The mother who was dead wasn't hers. She wanted to believe it so badly but her gut was saying something else.Brandon swallowed and avoided her gaze. He did not have the heart to tell her that her mother was dead. This wasn't how he planned on her finding out about her mother even if he had no idea how was going to go about telling her."No…no. That's not possible. I visited the hospital. I spoke with her. I…""When was the last time you spoke with her?" Brandon asked her."I told you, it was before I found out someone had sent people to kill me. There is no way my mother would be dead in just a few weeks." She said to him,Emma was sure h

Chapter 40"I need to see him." Emma said to Brandon as she wiped her tears."What?""I need to see my grandfather.""What? Why? You think anything good will come out of you going to see him?" Brandon asked her with a confused frown.It wasn't even up to an hour since the came back from the hospital and now she says she wants to meet with her grandfather?"Emma, you are not thinking clearly. Just take a deep breath and…""I know exactly what I'm thinking. I'm capable of sound thoughts and I know exactly what is going on. I don't need to rest or take a minute or two. What I need to do is confront my grandfather." She released a sigh and continued. "I'm tired of everything, Brandon. I'm tired of being used like a puppet and I had no idea that my mother had been dead…was dead for over a year. I've been going to the hospital and sitting next to someone I thought was my mother and I…I need answers and I don't want to rest, at least not today until I meet with my grandfather."Brandon stare
