AUTHOR’S POV.“It’s fine, I will go alone,” Sapphire said.The driver, John, shook his head and bowed gently, “I’m sorry ma’am, but I have to take you wherever you are going,” he said.Sapphire smacked her tongue, moved closer to him, and collected the key from him, “You know Daniel would not mind. I can always tell him it’s me who wanted it,” she said and moved to the car.She was bored at home and planned on going to Daniel’s company, and then probably get something at the mall later.That was enough to kill her boredom.==The man stared at the woman in the car before she rolled up the window of the car. He hurriedly picked up his phone and then beckoned to the other guys in the car.“She just left the house,” he announced.“Alone?” Emerald asked from the other end.“Yes, ma’am, she was in the driver’s seat,” he answered.“Good, proceed. Trail her carefully and don’t make any mistakes, okay?”The man dropped the call, ignited the engine, and then drove gently after her car.===Sap

AUTHOR’S POV.“What are you insinuating? Are you saying I am fake? Me, your wife?!” Emerald snapped in annoyance.Fake annoyance though.How could her cover blow so quickly again?How did he find out?She was wearing everything that belonged to Sapphire so how did he catch on again?What does Sapphire have that she doesn’t?!“Where is my wife?” Daniel asked her again.“I want you to know that it is enough. If this is a joke, stop it. I am not in a good mood.”Daniel pressed his lips together, covered the space between them, and then dropped his hand on her head. Instantly, he pulled off the towel from her head and then watched her hair fall over her shoulder.His lips tugged in a cold, dark smile as he stared at the hair.Sapphire hair was longer.“I trimmed my hair earlier,” she said hurriedly.He had not even asked her.“I will ask for the last time, Emerald. You don’t want to see another side of me, I promise. Where is Sapphire?”“I am your wife. I am Sapphire and I…” she was still

AUTHOR’S POV.Daniel dropped his phone and hurried after Sapphire who dashed to the bathroom. “Babe?” He leaned down and patted her back as she knelt by the water closet and vomited in it.He kept stroking her back till she raised her head and then took a bowl of water and then rinsed her face with it.He pulled her up gently and then carried her up in his arms when he saw how weak she looked and then carried her out of the bathroom.Sapphire buried her face in his neck till her back touched the soft mattress and then lay on it while Daniel pulled the duvet on her.“Are you okay?” He asked as he caressed her cheek.“God, no,” Sapphire moaned.“Sorry. Do you want to eat now? You’ve not had anything since morning,” he said, worry evident on his face.“Not yet,” she shook her head.“Nothing? Not even fruit or anything?” He asked.“I’m going to vomit it all so what’s the point,” she frowned.“Still, you gotta eat something so that you will…”“I am fine,” she cut him short with a his

AUTHOR’S POV.Sapphire did not know how long she lay in bed as she wondered and tried to solve the puzzle before she slept off.When she had returned to the room earlier, she hurried to the inner room she had discovered the previous week and checked the boxes again. It was definitely tied the same way Agatha had tied the ribbon.Of course, it could be a coincidence, but it was surely no coincidence that she lied about working here for two years when she’d been working for him for more than that.In fact, she was convinced that the design of the ribbon was similar. Because it was not common, and because it was unique, she knew that there was a huge link between Agatha and this person.Sapphire stirred in her sleep as she felt a hand tap her and when she opened her eyes and met with the smiling face of Agatha, she sprang up and moved to the other side of the bed.“W… what are you doing here?” She stuttered.“Are you okay? You look like you just saw a ghost,” Agatha said, the smile not l

AUTHOR’S POV.Daniel tried to break the hug but Sapphire did not allow him as she kept her arms wrapped around his waist. He sighed with a smile and then hugged her again.They had been in that position for many minutes and Sapphire had refused to let go of him.He could only wonder if she was truly okay. Especially this morning when he woke up and she was already awake, her eyes pinned on him.Now that it was time to go to work, she did not let him go as she kept hugging him.“Do you want me to stay home?” Daniel asked her.“No, just a second more,” she moaned as she sniffed him.After a while, she finally pulled away and then raised her head to look at him. “I love you,” she smiled.“I love you too, Amore,” he said and then kissed her forehead.“I love you very much and heaven knows that much,” she said again.“I know, babe.”“Trust me, I could not have asked for a better husband.”Okay… something was indeed going on.Daniel was convinced.“Babe, if anything is wrong, you know you
