The next morning, Celine ignored Xavier’s Good morning and it made him think that maybe something was wrong because she wasn’t one to ignore messages but she had ignored his texts twice now, the one from last night and this morning.Xavier decided to call her instead, to tell her he was on his way to her dormitory to pick her up. “Hey!” She says when she picks the call.“Good morning, how are you?” He asks sincerely. He hears a sniffle in the background“Are you crying?”“No, I’m fine.” She says “I’ll be expecting you”She ends the call.Celine didn’t get any sleep last night, she kept tossing in bed all through the night. She was mad at her dad for deceiving her, she was mad at herself for falling for his deceit. She was sorry that she was going to do something to hurt Xavier but she knew she had to do it for her own peace of mind.She had promised Xavier to go with him to see Sofia’s family so she was ready to go with him. She applied some makeup to hide the dark circles u

Early the next morning, Xavier had gotten dressed and headed to the office. He was following Maria’s plan to help him get Celine back, all he needed to do was dress up, take a nice picture and caption it “Happy” and then post it on his Instagram page for the world to see and by the world he meant Celine.He had fallen deep for her that he didn’t mind calling her his world because at the moment, his life seemed to revolve around her and he wanted it to be that way until the end of time.He did as he was told, he took a nice picture and captioned it “happy”Celine was scrolling through social media when she came across Xavier’s timeline, trust Instagram algorithm to be the cupid in their case, while she was admiring his look and also scrolling through his timeline, she also the post with the flowers and he had captioned it “In love”She remembered the flowers as the ones he had brought for her at the orphanage the other day, she never saw this post until now, her heart warmed up at

"Please, don't do this to her. She's really sick and needs treatment."The room was dark with the only source of light being the tiny hole in the wall, it was early in the afternoon but one wouldn't know if they were inside this dark room. Even Maria wonders how she found this place out, she scoffs as she thinks about it. All thanks to that creepy guy who kidnapped her and forced a confession out of her. "All I ask of you is simple and you and your mom will live a life of luxury for the rest of your lives" Maria said to the girl with a cynical smile. "Just do as I say!" She watched as the girl trembled on the floor, tears rolling down her cheeks. She was pleading for mercy, why was she pleading? Any one in their right senses would jump on the opportunity Maria was presenting to her. "Please, I can't do this." The girl cried. Her cries were so loud that Maria was beginning to get infuriated by it. "ENOUGH!" She commanded, moving closer to the girl's mother and pointing a gun

After waiting for more than a quarter of a day, the door to the O.R finally opened and a doctor walked out, with two nurses in tow. Xavier jumped up from where he sat, careful enough not to wake Celine who had fallen asleep beside him. "How is he?" Xavier asked the doctor once he was in front of him. The doctor gave him an odd look, and turned back to look at the nurses with questioning eyes. "Who are you?" The doctor asked, scrutinizing Xavier like he was some criminal. "The fuck you mean who am i?" Xavier's anger erupted. "How is that important man? I'm asking you how my grandfather is, I don't fucking care if you know who I am" He yelled, causing Celine to jump up from where she had dozed off on the sit. She stood up and moved closer to Xavier, placing a hand on his shoulder. "We just want to know if Mr. Smith is alright." Celine replied. "Well, tell that to the police." The doctor sneered, looking in the direction of the two police officers coming from behind Xavier

"You can't find her?" Alexis screamed at the detective in front of her. "She's a suspect in a case of attempted murder and you're saying you can't reach her?"Alexis was fiddling with her hair and pacing the kitchen at Xavier's home. The police were doing their investigations and that was where they had found the cup Mr. Smith drank the juice from last night. Although it had been washed by the maids last night, they still found tiny traces of poison on the cup.All the maids were gathered in the kitchen and they were asked if they noticed anything but they all denied seeing anything, except for the senior made noting that the girl who served the drinks was bent on serving it and kept asking her to let her do it. "Where is she?" Officer Abel asked, the senior maid. He had come to the mansion straight from the hospital after his partner showed him the image of the glass that was poisoned. "She left immediately after dinner, sir" A young maid opted.Abel turned to his partner "Find
