Kidnapped
RAYNE’S POV
It’s been over a week now I started doing the investigations and just like I thought it wasn’t easy because I wasn’t allowed to go out with Fred giving the excuse that Eric was going to abduct me if I do.
I sighed tiredly, what can I do or say he was the one that saved me, who knows what Eric is planning beside he had been keeping me to Eliminate me that’s what the record states.
I got up from my bed and decided to take a tour when the door opened immediyand Fred walked in.
“You’re awake love.” he said and embraced me tightly, caressing my body.
I wasn’t comfortable with his greeting so I adjusted to him. not comfortable with his careasing
“Good morning Fred.” I greeted him as I moved back a little.
“Morning my darling, how are you fairing?” he asked.
“I’m fine.” I stared at him. His outfit was a bit odd.
Isn’t he going to the office today or is he taking the day off.”
“You’re not dressed for work.” I said wanting to know his reasons.
“I wanted to stay back with you.” he said calmly.
“Let’s go have breakfast.”.
“I’ll be down in a jiffy, let me wash up.” I informed him.
“I’ll be waiting.” he said as he pecked me on the checks and walked out.
His strange actions started getting me nervous. I couldn’t think straight for a sec.
“How and when did it get to this?” I questioned no one in particular.
I took a quick shower and wore some casual outfit which Fred had got for me.
I walked out of my room down the stairs to join him for breakfast.
I stared at him and noticed he hadn’t touched his food.
Was he waiting for me or just got carried away?” I asked myself but got no answer.
“Did I keep you waiting? I’m so sorry for that.” I said politely as I sat down on the chair opposite him. hoping my words were going to make things more smooth and less weird.
“Of Course not, I could wait for you forever. I’ve waited this long,” he replied with a smile.
I couldn’t put his words together to understand what he meant but I wasn’t comfortable by his stares.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
I coughed lightly when his stares became too much for me to bear.
“Fred the stares, stop it, it’s annoying.” I was disgusted by his actions.
“I’m sorry but your features are just so beautiful I can’t take my eyes off you.” he said, still smiling.
I scoffed at his words and continued eating, ignoring his stares and weird smiles.
Soon I was done so I got up to leave.
“Thanks .” I thanked Fred. he had really been a helper to me. He took me in and I live under his roof and use his resources. Maybe he wasn’t that bad.
“Won’t you come sit with me so we could watch a programme or rather talk more!” he said, suggesting I stay with him.
“I’m sorry but I have something to do.” I lied not wanting to be too close with him.
“It’s okay.” he replied to me , his smile not washing off his face for a moment.
I ran up the stairs gently and carefully so as not to miss my steps so as not to fall down and get injured.
I walked into my room and shut the door behind me.
I sat on the bed and turned on the TV before changing the channel.
A headline caught my attention and I waited to read it.
“The CEO of the AD company has sued his father for taking the life of his past workers.” the headline read.
Immediately I saw that my eyes widened and I increased the volume not minding if it was disturbing the peace of the house.
“The famous CEO known as Erickson Arnold has sued his father for the murder of 23 staff who had worked in the closed company Ad. he also had declared his wife missing for over two months now and believes his father has something to do with it.” the report read.
So Eric was innocent all along, his father was the one behind the deaths, now I see the reason he had done nothing about it. if he sued his father and also had been searching for all this while shouldn’t I go back to get an explanation from him.
I got up happily, and finally my thoughts about him weren’t right.
Fred walked in all of a sudden.
“Take down the volume.” I said and I turned the TV off.
“What was that about, do you want to pull off the roof.” he said to me.
“I’m sorry ” I apologized
“I’m just so happy that Eric wasn’t responsible for the deaths and did the right thing.” I said out loud not knowing why I was telling him.
“What deaths?” he asked, a bit confused.
I hesitated for a while, why didn’t Fred tell me that Eric had been searching for me?”
Was he keeping me from Eric and the rest?
I tried not to ponder About it but I couldn’t just help it so I asked him.
“Why didn’t you tell me that Eric had been searching for me?” I asked him.
“Who told you so?” he asked.
I turned on the Tv so he could read the headlines, he read the headlines and I could see the surprised look on his face.
“I’m here for you, you don’t need Eric!.” he said calmly.
What is he saying that I don’t need Eric? Is he okay?
“What are you saying?” I asked him for his words.
“I’m here Rayne, you don’t need Eric anymore.” he said as he got close to me.
“Eric is my husband.* I reminded him just in case he had a memory loss on who Eric was to me.
I tried to walk past him but he held me back.
‘Let go.” I said to him when trying to free myself from him.
“Where are you going?” he asked
“To pack my things and go back to Eric.” I replied to him sternly.
“I guess we would have to do this the other way.” he said and before I could understand the sentence he grabbed me and put a handkerchief over my nose preventing me from getting good hair.
The chemical on the handkerchief was so strong. I felt my head spinning. everything was starting to get dark and soon I blacked out.
