"Hello"
"Yes?"
"This is Ariel speaking Daniella's best friend."
"Oh! What happened."
"Daniella just left with Wyatt's driver."
"Thank you, do you know the location?"
"Yes l will text the location."
I got up immediately.
"I will see you soon father" l said and went out.
"Felix accompany me somewhere."
"Where?"
"You will know."
"We got in the car and the text came."
"Take us to the new restaurant in Ice cube."
"Yes sir" he said and drove off.
"How could you be so careless" l queried.
"Brielle fainted, l had to rush her to the hospital had no time to wear a deguise."
"Any ways he was going to find out soon."
"How is Brielle, why did she faint?"
"I think is the side effect of the drugs Mrs Newton was giving her."
"You can't go back to the hospital, l will go check up on her,l made those drugs so l will find the cure to the side effects."
"I will go see her, l will go in deguise l just want to see how she is faring" Miguel said.
"Suit yourself young man" l said and walked out.
Wait dad, Brielle said she was told that Mrs Braxton did surgery on Connor then how come we look alike?
"Your father did surgery on you too."
"What?but my parents never told me."
"Both of you were identical,after Connor's surgery you looked different so your father copied Connor's features and did surgery on you too for future purposes, you know what l mean,so you can be able to know your twin.
After the long drive we arrived the restaurant.
Immedaitely we entered, l saw Wyatt and Daniella sitting opposite each other.
He was saying something and Daniella was all smiles and giggling.
My heart crumbled to pieces, Felix squeezed my hands reassuring.
We sat at the extreme and l kept watching them.
I have to control myself, l can't go beserk, not here not now.
Why do l feel there is more to this date?
The owner of the newly opened restaurant came out and started speaking.
"Good day ladies and gentlemen,am honored to welcome you all, thanks for coming, you all are our first customers so I decided to do something interesting."
We will be doing the bidding game.
"We are going to bring out five most beautiful ladies, the guy with the highest bid takes her home" she said and the crowd cheered. Note, the money will be sent to the orphanages and disabled people.
"So let the game begin."
"We all are adults, once l point at you don't spoil the fun, come out willing like the matured lady you are."
Four ladies were picked already.
"Am sorry Mr Braxton l will have to borrow your lady,you can bid highest to take her back" she said in her well polished intalian accent and Wyatt nodded with confidence.
"Mr Connor, it's now or never."
"Make sure to bid the highest."
"Off course l will."
"But you will have to bid in my place l will stay here and wait for you."
"I understand, if you step out it will go viral, both heirs of the Braxtons were bidding on the same lady."
The first, second, third lady were all taken.
The fourth was a little tough cause she was a celebrity but her fiance bidded highest and took her, now it was just Daniella.
20,000 dollars, a man said.
50,000 dollars Wyatt said.
60,000 dollars the man said.
80,000dollars Felix said and Wyatt eyes widened in surprise, but unfortunately for him he couldn't recognize Felix in deguise.
100,000 dollars Wyatt said.
"Wow, this lady is special" the
Italian lady said.
120,000 dollars, the other man said.
I50,000 dollars Wyatt said and the man kept quiet.
200,000 dollars Felix said.
"400,000 dollars" Wyatt said.
600,000dollars,Felix said.
"800,000 dollars Wyatt said sounding pissed already."
I watched patiently l knew Wyatt is selfish he will soon reach his limit.
"A million dollars" Felix said and the crowd cheered and then every where went silent.
"The winner is........"
"I.2 million dollars Wyatt screamed and Felix face fell.
"The hell what does Felix think of me?"
"5million dollars" l said and everyone turned to face me.
"5 million dollars" l said and everyone one turned to face me, they were murmuring and the place went silent.
Wyatt's eyes widened in shock.
"Wow! Wow! Wow! She sure is special."
So the winner is Connor Braxton."
"Daniella looked totally surprised, she stared at Wyatt and stared back at me."
She took slow strides to where I am.
"You are a Braxton!But Wyatt never mentioned you, he only said you are my boss" she said and stared back at Wyatt who stood defeated.
"Let's leave Daniella."
"No l can't.........."
"Let's go" l said and took her hand.
"But l can't leave Wyatt, just let me go please."
"Don't worry about him, remember this is the rule of the game, l bidded highest so you are coming with me."
"So we have finally come to the end of the game, thanks Mr Braxton, your bidding was superb will contribute to millions of lives.lt really an honor to have the Braxtons here, a round of applause for them" she said and the crowd gone wild, some were clapping while others were screaming.
"Let's go" l told Felix and took Daniella by the hand.
Wyatt glared daggers at me and stormed off.
We got in the car and drove off.
"Where are we heading?" Daniella asked but l ignored.
"Call another driver to come pick you up Felix, am taking Daniella somewhere."
"Okay" Felix replied and called a driver.
After the long drive we arrived at the cinema.
The same cinema, l booked the night l was kidn*pped.
"We alighted from the car, and entered the cinema and the place was empty."
"Did you book the whole place?"
"Daniella asked."
"Does this setting look familiar?" I asked in reply and she nodded in affirmation.
"Come seat, let's watch a movie" l said.
"What movie?" She asked.
"Just watch."
The movie started, a reenactment of what happened the first and second day we met.
"Do you remember anything, does it look familiar?"
"Yes, but l............."
"Aaaaaaaah! Aaaaaaaah! ouch! She held her head and screamed all of a sudden.
"Daniella! Daniella are you okay?what's happening."
"Ouch! Ouch!" She kept screaming.
"It's okay Daniella, stop trying to remember, don't force it okay" l said worriedly.
"No it can't be!"
"What lzzy you are scaring the s**t out of me."
"I remember something."
"Where we here before?"
"My goodness! You remember."
"Just flashes of memories it was somehow blur but you and l we were......"
"Talk to me Daniella."
"We were kissing."
"There is improvement already, it's a good thing you can remember some things now."
"Have we kissed before, but am your brother's fiancee, how did it happen? or was l mistaken you for Wyatt."
"Daniella, l will be the happiest man on Earth if you can gain all of your memories back, hopefully you soon will
and l can't wait for that time to come."
"Are you and Wyatt beefing?"
"You really are his brother?"
"When you get your memories back you will know" l said and she huffed.
"Why do l think there is more to our relationship?"
"Izzy stop trying hard time remember, you are going to get hurt."
"I don't want you to go to college lzzy."
"Why?but you promised to sponsor me and have packed up already."
"Yes l know, l want you to come back to my house tomorrow, don't forget you are still my personal nurse, l will enrol you to an online lesson till you get your memories back."
"This is unfair, why can't l just go to college."
"Please Daniella, just accept it for the meantime, when you get your memories back you can go back to college."
"But why, l don't need those memories in college."
"Understand lzzy, am looking out for you, it's for your safety."
"Alright" she said and her stomach rumbles.
"You are hungry!"
"No am not."
"Let go and eat, l said and walked her to the dinning."
"Wow! Sea foods l love sea food" she said happily."
"She sat down immediately grinning widely and suddenly she held her head and started screaming."
