KANES’S POV
I knew from the moment she said the word I’m sorry she was going to be mine. I love innocent girls and aside from that there is just something about her. I can’t point out… I know for sure behind that innocence lies boldness. She just needs a little trigger, and I’m going to do that …
If only my Dad had been here… I miss you so much dad … I just need more time. Once I get my hands on what I am working on, I will kill that b***h, he fumed…

Flashback( KANE’S MEMORY)
Tick …tick …tick
The sound of water coming out of the shower. There Kane is taking his morning bath, giggling….
I really can’t wait to see my dad…he said.
Mum must have made breakfast and dad will soon be back home after a long trip …
KANE’S POV
I quickly showered cus I couldn’t wait to see my dad. I just love him so much… I came out of the bathroom…, strolled to my dressing room to dress up ….
Kane… I heard my mum called me
Yes Mum, I’m coming
After dressing up, I went downstairs to meet Mum.

DOWNSTAIRS LIVING ROOM
I went downstairs and met Mum setting up the dining table with our maid Zoey …
Mum I called
Yes dear
Is dad almost home? I asked
Yes he’s ….she replied.
Then I smiled…. I always thought I had the most wonderful and happy family but little did I know I was mistaken…
Dad is a rich business entrepreneur, owner of different companies …. He’s every woman's dream man …., but he chose my mum …
Mum is from a middle-class family…., and from what I heard, according to my dad, she was forced to get married to him cus her parents wanted it. He, on the other hand, loved my mum wholeheartedly and his parents approved of her because of him …
But she didn’t want the marriage. He told mum he'd not force her to get married to him cus he knew she already had a lover….
After some months, mum later came to him and said she was ready to marry him …. He did not give it much thought because of the love he had for her. He agreed ….
It has been years now since they got married and birthed me a sign of their love (well that was what I thought) and everything has been going well ….
Car horns….. I jerked out of my thoughts as I heard a car horn. I already knew it was my dad, so I ran outside…
Dadddd…. I shouted
How are you doing, my boy ….he asked.
I’m fine dad …how was the trip ? Hope you aren’t stressed. I miss you so much daddy…. I cried
I’m alright, my boy, stop crying. I miss you too…
Where is your mum? He asked.
She’s inside …
Alright, let's go in, okay….
I looked back and told the guards to take his bags inside.

LIVING ROOM
KANE MUM: Welcome back honey
MR. SCOTT: Thanks, love… how are you doing?
KANE MUM: Fine dear… hope the journey wasn’t stressful.
MR. SCOTT: It wasn’t
KANE: Dad, sit and let's eat
Mr Scott smiled and ruffled Kane’s head.
****
The whole family sat down for dinner …. After Flora Kane's mum dished out the meal …. Everyone was eating in silence and enjoying the meal till Kane spoke up…
Dad, what did you get for me ?
Kane…. His mum called. What did I tell you about eating and talking at the same time ?
Mr Scott smiled… leave him dear, he’s just happy. He faced Kane and said …
Trust your dad to get you a lot of things …. Sometimes I wonder if you are still a 10-year-old boy … you always act like a kid.
Common dad, I’m your only son and only child. Regardless of my age, I will always act like a kid …. He said
After dinner, come get it okay …. His dad said
Sure dad … Kane replied.
MR SCOTT's POV
I smiled at my son Kane… I really hope he doesn’t change after hearing the truth tonight….
Up till now, I still regret the day I got married to Flora… I looked at her disgustingly. She's so good at pretending how I wish I had listened to my mum back then. She had to support my decision because she wanted me to be happy, and now I’m regretting it …
Well you must be wondering how I found out Flora is a gold digger….
One night, Kane was already 7 months old. At that time, I came back from work very late and couldn’t find my wife at home. I went upstairs to Kane's room and met him asleep alongside his nanny …
Anita I called ….
Yes sir …she jerked up.
Where is Flora, I asked ….
I don’t know sir, she just told me she would be coming back in a few mins, but it has been over an hour now … she replied.
Alright with that, I left the room …
I went back downstairs thinking where she might be …. I’ve been receiving threats lately from an unknown number whom I assumed to be some jealous freaks who are eyeing my wealth. I hope she’s safe tho ….
Then my phone chipped… I had a new message. I checked it and I froze ….
Message content :: DO YOU REALLY KNOW YOUR WIFE?? I BET YOU DON'T …IF YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW HOW, THEN COME TO THIS ADDRESS
I looked at the message and was shocked. Who could this be? And this is a different number compared to the one I do receive threat messages from…
I quickly grabbed my car keys and went out of the house…
***
I drove hurriedly in the dark street in the middle of the night wondering what was going on. The street was silent. I drove past several houses till I got to the address.
I parked my car, looked at the address, wondering if I was in the right place because this place looked deserted, but I summoned up courage and walked up to the building ….
I entered inside the uncompleted building. I was just entering any place my leg carried me to… not until I heard Flora’s voice …
