Chapter 44
CHAPTER FOURTY FOUR. "I believe when you get a hold of him, you will personally hand him over to me, I have a personal score to settle with him first before you take him to court" Damian said as he sat in front of the police commander, high and mighty as always,
"Be rest assured sir, we won't let him go" the police commander replied in respect. He couldn't bear to annoy the man sitting in front of him, if he didn't want to ruin his reputation.
"Very well then, I will wait for your call" Damian said and walked out, not waiting for the police commander's response.
"Mum, all our plans are failing and now, that stupid Pete is on the run" it was Jennie who spoke up, frustration was evident on her face.
"Be quiet Jennie, everything started with you" Kathleen yelled angrily. Her daughters don't know the kind of frustration she was facing at the moment. Her plan to get rid of Sabastian failed, and Amy was still going about with her secret, like her world was about to end and these two girls of hers would not understand it.
"We just have to kill Amy once and for all" Gwen butted in, after the embarrassment she suffered at Luca, she detested her to the bane of her existence. "Mum, if we are not careful, we will be caught before we even do anything. Day by day she is getting smarter".
"I am trying to get to her okay, Damian keeps sticking to her like glue" Kathleen yelled in desperation. The past few days have been so hectic for her and now Pete could not even help her when he can't save his own ass. "I have a plan" Gwen said and they both turned to her.
"What is it?' her sister asked. "From what I know, she is very close with her assistant and we can get her through her assistant",
"Well, that's a good plan, I will handle it," Kathleen quickly said.
"No mum, I will handle it this time, you can't be trusted" Jennie replied and walked away to make arrangements.
"Mum"
"Yes Gwen" she answered.
"What has been going on with you? You seem distracted and always go off on your own to try and kill dad without us knowing, are you hiding anything from us mum?" Gwen asked in a concerned tone.
"No dear, I just don't like that she is always around us. She has taken everything away from us and made us a laughing stock in the eyes of the public. I just want her out of our lives for good "she replied and quickly walked off. She felt very guilty lying to her daughters like this but she can't allow them to find out about her past.
"I think mum is hiding something from us and I need to find it out" Gwen muttered under her breath as she continued to stare at the door.
After a while Jennie walked back inside, she had a smile on her face.
"Jennie" Gwen called the Moment she sat down.
"Yes, tell me".
"It seems mum is hiding something from us, she behaves weird these days". "I already started investigating that a long time ago. Once I find out what she is hiding, I will let you know. But for now, I need to plan for Amy's demise". "When did you become this smart Jennie, four years ago you were just a scardy cat. Remember you asked mum not to go ahead with her plans of killing Amy".
Jennie scoffed, "I used to be close to her then and really loved her like a sister should, but I realized mum was right. This is exactly what mum was afraid of years back and now she has taken everything from us. So I won't let her live in peace with Damian". Anger and hate was evident on her face.
"Let's just get this over with soonest, I miss my social life" Gwen said sadly. She who was always the life of the party now has little or nothing to show, anywhere she went people always ridiculed her and her family. "Let's hope this plan does not flop".

When Amy received the message that Jemima had been kidnapped, she knew exactly who was behind it. People who were close to her were getting hurt because of her quest for revenge, first it was her dad and now someone she calls her friend. Right now she only wanted to bring Jemima back because she didn't want to separate two lovers, being separated from the one you love was something one could hardly endure and since this is how Kathleen and her daughters want it, she might as well not disappoint them.
"Hubby, I will be going out for some work tomorrow morning" she said as she sat beside him in the study. He was engrossed in his work but as soon as she said what she wanted to say, he stopped reading the document.
"And where is that?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. "It's just that Kathleen and her daughters have Jem and i need to get her back, so am going there" she replied sincerely "And you want to go alone?". "It's not something important, just send Rubby with me".
He angrily stood up and began to walk out of the room. "What happened hubby?" She asked running up to him. She was surprised because a while ago they were both talking and now he looked angry. "Nothing, I want to sleep," he replied, not bothering to look at her. "Hubby, please tell me".
He sighed heavily," you can ask Rubby to go with you since I am not important" with which he walked off. He was angry because his wife decided to go with Rubby to protect her and she doesn't need him, he felt wronged.
It dawned on Amy as to why he was angry and she felt bad for making him angry, she quickly rushed upstairs to meet him, he was lying on the bed and going through some documents when she entered. "Hubby" she called in a concerned voice as she sat beside him.
"You need to rest, you have been up and doing since morning" he answered, even if he was angry at her, he couldn't neglect her health.
"How can I rest when you are mad at me?".
"Stop being stubborn Amy and get some rest” he replied in an angry tone and she could feel he was trying so hard to suppress his anger. Tears welled up in her eyes, this was the first time he shouted at her.

"Am sorry hubby" she answered in a tear stricken voice.
On hearing her voice mixed with tears, he quickly dropped the document and sat up.
"What's wrong babe, do you feel sick?" His voice was filled with concern and love.
"I am sorry that I annoyed you, I shouldn't
have asked for Rubby but you instead" she replied and pounced into his embrace. "It's okay stop crying, it's not good for the baby" he held her close to himself, he couldn't bear the tears in her eyes. " Next time I will ask you to go with me and not ask for Rubby anymore, I am sorry". "Shhh" he shoed, "it's okay wife, am not mad at you okay? please stop crying, it's not good for your health". "I want to hug you to sleep". She replied still in his embrace like a spoilt little kid. "I will cuddle you to sleep okay?".
"And I want to go with you too, not Rubby".
"Yes baby, I will go with you" he was stroking her hair as he replied lovingly. Part of him was pleased to see her reaction, he knew she loved him immensely, seeing she was crying because he was angry at her.
"And you yelled at me hubby" she sniffed as she spoke up, she was still in his arms, scared that he would turn away from her If
she leaves him.
"Sorry wife, I promise not to yell at you again". "Okay" she moved closer to him again, her face was on his bare chest and she could feel herself feeling alright after sniffing his scent. He didn't ask her to stand up and kept stroking her hair lovingly, after a while he could hear her steady breathing, she fell asleep in his arms.
"Silly" he muttered under his breath, smiling as he tucked her Into bed, when he was done he pulled out his phone and called Rubby. "I know my wife cares alot about Jem, but do so well to find her and don't overly stress Amy out, she is pregnant" he said in a Stern voice as soon as the call connected. "Yes boss, I understand". "I won't allow them to hurt you wife" he muttered under his breath as he watched the peaceful figure sleeping on the bed.
