Chapter 33 : Why Me

Tonye went to check on his future wife, he met a sleeping Adaora on the bed, he slowly went to tuck her in and closed the door quietly. Meanwhile Chief Adebayo arrived at the house in the woods only to find his goons tied to the ground, he immediately went to the room were he thought Adaora was being held, he could not find her. 

He went straight to one of the tied goons and asked "you incompetent fools were is she" the tied goons did not answer he said again "you idiots how did she escape" one of the goons said reluctantly "she did not escape she was rescued by some men" Chief Adebayo was so angry he gave one of the goon's a punch to the face, he quickly got into his car started the engine and left.

Adaora's mother woke up the next morning her maids came to attend to her all she could say in tears was "why me why me oh" one of the maids said to her "madam everything would be fine" Kenny walked in on his crying mother in his silk pajamas and said in a calm tone "mom you are still crying its going to be okay Adaora would come back safe and sound" Adaora's mother replied "i hope so my son".

Chapter 29 : Meeting Point

The next evening the escalade came to pick up Isabella, she was so frightened on the drive to the private hotel, she remembered the conversation she had with Ming the journalist and decided to brush it aside, unknown to Isabella this client she was going to meet was one of the worst none of Chidi's girls had agreed to go see him because he usually would leave them with scars and bruises, Isabella did not know this.

When they arrived the private hotel, Isabella went up to his hotel room she knocked on the door and a huge man with a pot belly answered, Isabella greeted him and the man said "come in and take of your clothes" Isabella was not surprised she came in and did as she was told, the man slapped her and threw to the ground Isabella started crying when he was done he said "put on your clothes and leave now".

Isabella could barely stand up she was so weak with scars all over her body the man then said "you better leave now or would throw you out myself" Isabella quickly put on her clothes and left. 

When she arrived Aisha's place she went to boil hot water in a kettle when it was boiled, she slowly took of her clothes and went into the bathroom, while she was having her bath she thought out loud "this man is so wicked look at my body" when she was done having her bath she came out and went straight to her phone there was a ding she checked the amount it was not complete, Chidi had only sent two hundred thousand dollars again she was so angry she almost threw the phone to the ground.

Chapter 32 : Rescue Mission

The moment they entered the room were Adaora was they quickly grabbed her with no time to waste and said "we would explain everything to you later ma just come with us" Adaora was not willing to ask any questions either, she immediately went with them, its was a successful rescue mission.

They untied Adaora, got into the helicopter and took her straight to Tonye, when they arrived at their destination, Tonye was so pleased to see Adaora, Adaora on the other hand was surprised she said "you sent them to save me" Tonye replied "yes i did you know i like you eh let's take you home". Adaora felt so relieved she said "but i need to freshen up a bit i look a mess" Tonye replied "no problem" they headed straight to Tonye's downtown condo.

An hour later they arrived Tonye's downtown condo, Adaora stepped out of the red ferrari and headed straight to the condo's lobby, Tonye pressed the penthouse suit on the elevator the doors opened they entered and the doors closed, no one said a word to each other it was quite awkward, when they arrived the penthouse suit on the top floor Adaora was still in shock.

Tonye gave her some fresh clothes and pointed towards the guest bathroom, Adaora took a nice long shower she thought to herself what an ordeal, when she got out of the shower she put on the clothes Tonye had given her earlier, she was also too tired so she lay on the comfortable bed.

Chapter 31 : Time

The special agents were unable to trace the call, that was the least of Adaora's mother's problems, with tears rolling down her eyes she spoke "let me just sign the papers i dont want him to sell my daughter into slavery oh" with her hand on her head Adaora's father was not having it he spoke "so you can sign away everything to him are you okay" Kenny looked so sad he did not like seeing his parents like this, meanwhile Chief Adebayo went to meet Adaora he said "my dear your mother is not complying so Russia or Dubai which do you prefer" Adaora was confused she said with tears in her eyes "what do you mean" Chief Adebayo spoke "slavery my dear i would sell you into slavery if your mother does not sign those papers" with that Chief Adebayo left the room were Adaora was being held.

There was a loud noise coming from the back of the house were Adaora was being held, one of the goons went to check what it was making that awful noise so he thought, as he approached the scene he was immediately knocked unconscious by one of the mercenaries, they soon entered the house after tackling and tieing the goons down to the ground, when they got into the house they went straight to the room were Adaora was being held captive.

Chapter 28 : Chidi My Cut

Isabella was about to leave when Chidi pulled her back and said "okay two million dollars just get ready tomorrow the car would come pick you up" with that he entered his car and left, when she got in the house a lot was going through her mind do you know what i could do with two million dollars i can by a mansion and take trips all over the world she thought to herself.

Her life would practically change, then her phone rang it was a strange number she picked up the call she said "hello who is this" the person spoke "i am ming a journalist from a news paper corporation i would like to speak to you person if you don't mind" Isabella was surprised what would a journalist want with her could this be a joke" she then said "why would you want to speak to me in person" the journalist ming said "is about Chidi and his so called organisation or should i call it an escort service".

Isabella was surprised she said "how do you know about Chidi and" she was immediately interrupted by Ming she said "i know what you do for Chidi is either you speak to me or the cops would, so tell me were you want us to meet and talk" Isabella was so frightened she then said "can i call you back i want to decide on a place were we could meet" Ming then said "no problem just give me a call on this number okay don't waste time" with that she hung up the call. Isabella did not want to risk speaking to the cops or going to jail for Chidi.

Chapter 30 : Planted

Who could have planted this detonator they all thought to themselves, one of the special agent said "this family is really in danger" they all left the pool house and headed towards the mansion, one of the special agent pulled one of the detective aside and asked "is there a need to move them to the safe house for their protection" the detective replied "no not yet we are on to something here".

Kenny thought to himself who could have planted that detonator in the pool house and why was his mother talking about a diamond mining firm, all this while he had only known ownership to hotels and resorts not a diamond mining firm, what was his mother hiding.

The phone at the mansion rang it was that strange number again one of the special agent suggested Adaora's mother pick up the call, so she did she spoke "hello who is this" Chief Adebayo spoke "is me again i guess you would soon be doing some renovations to the pool house" he let out a horrible laugh, Adaora's mother was shocked she said "it was you, you this wicked man i" Chief Adebayo interrupted her he said "time is running out, you better sign the papers or else" with that he hung up the call, Adaora's mother could not hold her tears back.
