Chapter 30

"Ariel are you leaving too?"

 "Yes bestest,get some rest now."

  "But am fine now, you can't leave me alone."

  "Rest well bestest see you later" she said and winked at me.

  "This sucks, l need to get the hell outta here."

   And l need to get those damn memories back."

   "Connor l knew you don't hate me like you claim, l knew you will come for me,l know have not been a good father, have never really cared for you like a father should, have always been busy traveling around and never cared, am sorry Connor l ....."

  "Mr Braxton, stop with the sermon, l need to see the doctor" l said and left the ward.

   I reached the doctors office and knocked gently.

  "Come in" l heard his manly voice.

I twisted the door knob and entered his office.

  "Good day doctor."

"Mr Braxton it's my pleasure to meet you, have a seat" he said in a rush.

    "Doctor l will really appreciate it if you call me by my name Connor."

  "Oh am sorry Mr Connor, please have a seat."

  "You know why am here."

"Yes l will get straight to the point, your father........."

  "The f**k! Can't you just call him Mr Braxton."

"Am sorry sir."

  "Mr Braxton was poisoned with Botulinum, this poison is deadly, it makes a person's nervous system to fail and die in extreme pain."

"Are you trying to say he is going to die?"

"No Mr Connor, but his chances of survival is too slim, this poison is deadly and even if he undergoes surgery, he only has 10%of survival."

  "Please doctor, you have to do anything to make him live, anything please."

 "I will try my best Mr Connor."

  "Thanks doctor, l will leave now."

 "I picked up my phone to call felix."

  "Hello Felix have you found out anything."

 "No boss."

"Stop calling me your boss Felix, am no longer your boss."

  "You will always remain my boss Mr Connor, about the incident the CCTV cameras were tampered with l haven't gotten a clue yet."

 "Please be fast about it."

"Yes l will" he said and l hung up and walked into Mr Braxton's ward.

"What did the doctor say?"

"He said you will be fine."

"I know when you are lying Connor,you just said the opposite, l know am going to die soon, but my greatest regret is you not being my son."

"Why?"

"Why are you not my son."

       Daniella

I opened my eyes slowly, how long have l slept? I can't believe l slept this long.

  Aaaaaaaah! I screamed as l notice someone sitting beside me.

  "Who are you?" I asked.

"Calm down Daniella, you really don't remember anymore"

"No l don't remember, Are you my friend?"

"It's hurts so much that you don't remember anything or anyone but why will you forget me."

"Are we friends?"

"We were more than friends Daniella l can't believe you really don't remember me."

"What's your name?"

"Wyatt Braxton."

 Wyatt is at it again.

I feel for Mr Braxton, he loves Connor so much.

*

"Felix have you gotten a clue yet? Mr Braxton is dying."

   "Sir am trying it's just that the person behind this did a clean job and its very difficult to figure out."

   "I trust you Felix you are smart , just please try to figure it out as soon as possible, l want to know the person behind this, am transferring him to a much better hospital for surgery though his chances of survival is very slim."

  "Why will they poison him? I really want to find out who did this."

  "Rest assured Mr Braxton l will get to the bottom of this."

   "Thanks Felix ,l made some research concerning the poison that he took, just like the doctor said, it's almost impossible for him to survive except a miracle happens, am waiting for your feedback Felix don't disappoint me."

  "I won't boss."

"Please be careful."

"I will" he replied and l hung up.

 I entered my car quickly, take me to Decrot" l told the chaufeur it been days l last saw Daniella l need to see her."

    After the long drive we arrived the hospital.

  I rushed to Daniella's ward but found an empty bed, l walked back to the reception and met the nurse in the reception.

   "Where is Daniella Abby?"

"Miss Daniella have been discharged yesterday."

 "What?"

"Is her mother still here?"

"Yes she is" she replied and l Left the reception to meet mrs Abby.

"Good day ma'am" l greeted.

"Mr Connor, you are finally here"

   "Why wasn't l informed that Daniella have been discharged?"

"Am sorry Mr Connor, l couldn't reach you it's just that a lot has happened lately."

  "What happened?"

"Your brother" 

   "I don't have a brother Mrs Abby."

  "Wyatt Braxton, he was here."

"Wyatt was here, that motherfucker, why was he here?"

 "He came to see Daniella and made her believe they were engaged."

"What?"

  "He even came with fake pictures and videos of their engagement, he told Daniella that we are against their relationship, that she shouldn't believe whatever we say, he said after the engagement he went on a business trip and before he came he heard that Daniella got an accident and lost her memories."

"And Daniella believed him and agreed to go on a date with him."

  "What?"

"Am sorry Mr Connor, l just don't know what to do, Daniella has been manipulated, she believed all what Wyatt said and agreed to marry him."

"What?"

"She doesn't listen to anyone anymore, she thinks we are against her relationship just like Wyatt said."

"This is bullshit."

  "Wyatt, am going to deal with that asshole."

"Where is Daniella right now?"

 "She is preparing to leave for college, and she will be going on a date with Wyatt tonight."

"I think am going to do this the hard way."

  "What are you going to do Mr Connor."

"I won't let her go to college."

  "What! But she ......."

"No buts Mrs Abby, l knew she will be manipulated easily now she lost her memories."

 "But how are you going to do that."

"Don't worry Mrs Abby, from now on l will never let her out of my sight."

  "Take care of yourself Mrs Abby."

"Wait Mr Connor"

 "Please get better Mrs Abby you need to be discharged too, l don't think this place is safe for you anymore, stop worrying, rest alot to speed up your recovery, have a nice day." 

I left the hospital got into my car and dailed Felix number quickly.

   "Hello Felix"

"Mr Connor!"

"Am sorry if am disturbing you but please l want you to abduct Wyatt Braxton before night fall."

     Brielle

  "Mom how are you doing?" I asked.

   "Am fine Brielle"

"You don't look okay mom, you have lost weight,are they maltreating you here? l can get them all fired."

  "No my dear, they won't dare.lts just Connor, will he ever be able to forgive me?Will he? Have failed as a mother, have failed completely, am not worthy to be called a mother."

  "Mom! Stop crying please,ever since this incident, Connor has changed alot.

 He is now mean and never smiles, l tried talking to him at the hospital the other day and he called me a b***h as usual, and he warned me never to tell Daniella am her twin sister until she regains her memories.

   This whole incident has wieghed him down, he is now acting wildly,he is broken mom and l know Connor is kind-hearted no matter what happens he can't change entirely , he will definitely forgive you mom, l know he will."

"Dad is still investigating the death of Maureen, you know how difficult it is since the case has happened a long time ago."

  "Am also doing investigations too, l know you are innocent, l believe you are innocent, we just have to find evidence that she didn't die naturally and find out who was behind her death."

  "We will get to the bottom of it and unviel the truth."

   "Please you have to stop worrying, l don't want anything to happen to you please be strong for my sake."

  "I will my dear, what would l have done without you!"

  "How is Daniella doing?"

"She is fine mom, are injuries have healed up."

  "That good, hope she gets back her memories soon."

  "Yes l hope so too, and l hope l will be able to build a good relationship with her before then."

"Off course you can my dear ."

  "I will leave now, take care of yourself mom."

  "You too my dear."

"Alright mom, l will see you soon" l said and left the station.

  I walked to my car and entered and the driver drove off immedaitely.

  Minutes later l found out he was taking me to another direction.

  This isn't my driver.

My goodness! How come l didn't notice .

  "Who are you?" I asked frightened.

"Am nobody my boss wants to see you."

"Where is my driver?"

"He is safe."

  "Stop the car now" l don't want to see your boss"

"Stop the car" l yelled but he kept driving."

  "Stop the car" l screamed loudly and he pulled a g*n from his pocket and pointed it at me."

  "Please don't hurt me"l begged.

"Nah l won't,my boss wants you alive, strong and healthy just shut up and let me drive."

   "You are quite a beauty, but I hate noise if you keep screaming l will knock you out."

   "Now do me a favor and shut the hell up."

After many hours of driving we arrived at a very huge building.

   Where is this place?

"I was already tired and hungry."

   "Where are we?"l asked.

The gate was opened and he drove in.

  "Get down he ordered."

I got down weakly, am starving.

    He lifted me off the ground and carried me in bridal style.

  "Put me down" l yelled.

"I hate noise pretty" he said the hoodie fell off his face.

"I opened my mouth slightly, l was clearly drooling,how can someone be this...... beautiful."

  "You are drooling"he said and hissed loudly.

  My cheeks reddened in embarrassment.

We got to a large living room and he put me down and turned back to leave.

    "Wait! I called

"Who is your boss?" 

He ignored and walked out.

  Stupid me l wanted to ask what is your name.

I stood in the large living room fiddling with my fingers and then l saw a middle aged man descending from the stairs.

 He walked up to me and smiled sweetly.

  "Who are you?" I asked.

"Brielle, you have done alot of research about me and yet you don't recognize me?"

He looks familiar.

"Have we met before?"

  No it can't be you are dead, lt can't be you.

"Yes it's me daughter."

  I scrolled through the new phone my fiance brought for me.

  I kept thinking, why is everyone against our relationship?

Wyatt is a nice man, l like him already.

  But l don't know, l just keep feeling something is off, but l just don't know, l wish l can remember.

  The door opened and Ariel came in.

 "Hey babe."

  "Hi" 

"How are you doing?" I asked.

  "Am good, just a bit tired?"she replied.

  "What have you been doing?"

"Packing."

"Oh! Have packed up already, but l can't find what to wear on a date with my fiance, can you help me pick a dress?"

"What fiancee?"

"Are you still seeing that Wyatt Braxton?"

"Forget it, l know you guys don't like him, just help me pick a dress, will you?"

   "Never."

"Ariel please" l pouted.

  "I said never, what wrong with you Daniella, have said this countlessly you and Wyatt were never in a relationship."

  "Stop it Ariel, you guys should stop lying to me,l saw the videos of our engagement, the photos, l saw them all, Wyatt is nice, can't you see, l can't remember the past but l know Wyatt is a nice man, if he done anything in the past, please forgive him for my sake."

  "Hahahaha, Daniella you are stupid, there is nothing Wyatt Braxton can't do, he is dangerous lzzy, he is taking advantage of you because you don't remember anything."

  "Fine! I will pick my outfits myself stop with the sermon."

  "Izzy you have to listen to me, you can't go out with Wyatt Braxton, you can't."

  "And why can't l?"

"Why? He is my fiance.

"He Is not your fiance, he is not, you guys were never in a relationship."
