Ella’s Pov
Was in my room ransacking through the wardrobe to find anything suitable to wear when I heard rumblings from downstairs, I ignored at first and then the sound of a bottle smash, argument between two persons and then I heard a man’s voice
“Tie them up” the thick muscular voice boom, sending shivers down my spine. I quickly put on a simple long black gown, then I heard my name called.
“Ella” I hear the voice now clearer and closer
But then image of a little boy appear again, calling my name repeatedly. I saw blurs of the man entering into the room, carried me on his shoulder as He ordered the other men to bring Danny and Dad along.
“Someone’s at the door” one of the men said to the man carrying me. Then a loud bang is heard at the back door
“They quickly take us out into their car with the man dropping Me in the Booth “Ella” I heard Dad called, “bring my daughter here” that was the last word I heard before passing out.
Danny’s Pov
We were taken to a large building more like a foresaken tower. “Who are you and what do you want from us” Dad asked facing the Guy who seem to be their Boss but got a resounding slap as an answer.
“Don’t you dare lay a finger on my Dad” I stormed at him
Well I already did” he said with a evil smirks.
Tie them up till Madam arrives” he says and walked out. He’s accent like that of an Irish. His chocolate skin glowing like the early morning sun, he is handsome and well built and could pass for a gentleman. I wonder why he’s this evil. Madam?? I thought who could it be
The guy walks back in dragging Ella with him
“Let me go” she screamed trying to free herself but he was too strong for her. I felt pain seeing her suffer, wish there could be something I could do to set us free but there’s none.
“Tie her up, stronger than theirs, she seems stubborn”
Minutes later……
I felt a vibration on me, that who I guessed heard it too locked eyes with me.
“Whose phone is that?” He whispered rolling his eyes at me.
“Probably yours I dropped mine at Ella’s house”
Just then a thought ran through me, the person knocking the door when we were being held hostage, he might have found the phone and I remember I connected Dad’s location to my phone when I first suspect he’s hiding something, Maybe that could help. I closed my eyes praying to God, let them see the phone, someone
should dial Dad’s number so the location could appear, God please help us. I prayed silently
Just then the Guy walked in again, and walked straight to Ella. Holding her chin straight up
You know I felt some kind of connection ever since the day I saw your picture, you are indeed beautiful no wonder she wants you out of her way…. Your eyes, they remind me of someone special yunno”
“Let my sister go take your hands off her ” I shouted angrily. I can’t bear seeing another man’s hand on her talk less of a demon like this
“Why are you doing this” I heard Ella’s faint voice
“What do you want from us, how could an handsome man like you be so evil, why are you this Wick……”
“Oh please spare me the sermons, I didn’t just turn like this, I also have a family, but you know what I was seperated from them since I was a little boy, I even lost my twin sister, my Only surviving other half so don’t tell lecture me… you really want to know why am like this?, It’s because of your father’s
“What!!”
Ella and I said together
“What do you mean” dad who was silent all this while finally spoke up
“Yes, your father is the reason I have no family, he purposely set a fire trap that set our home on fire”
“Am a Nigerian” he continued “This Man here set our house on fire because of his greedy act, he needs a large land to build a large hospital for his white wife and made two three years old kids an orphan. He even sold my twin sister because the Government didn’t let him have the land. I was taken to an orphanage where I got no care from, I eventually ran away from there, Mrs jenny came to my aid and brought me to here and since then have only wanted revenge. I killed your wife, because she’s the reason you wasted my family”
He burst into tears….
“I don’t know what he’s saying, you two should believe me” Dad says almost in tears. Dad told me everything but its different from what this man just said, Mom’s a Nigerian not a white. And if he’s the son whose parents died in the fire then he’s Ella’s Twin….Ohmy God.
He pointed a gun at us all of a sudden, walking to Dad
Where’s she, whom do you give her to uhn tell me who…” He shouted at Dad.
..”Am your sister” Ella yelled back
“What?… are we acting here, am not talking to you so just shut up” he screamed at Ella and point the Gun back to Dad.
Dad explained everything to him but he still wouldn’t believed,. “its a lie, I won’t fall for your trick….I won’t” He said and burst into tears again
Just then Mrs Cole entered
“Whoo hoo hoo, see who we have here” she said laughing
“A sweet reunion I guessed” she said and pointed her Gun at James ( Ella’s Twin brother),
So it’s true” james said raisin his hand up
Yes darling it is, I only used you”
“How could you be this cruel, you made me kill two innocent person and I almost kill my sister too?”
“Oh yes, well that wasn’t my plans before, all I want is to get in touch with your family in Nigeria, try to convince them to create problem for Maureen so she would go to Nigeria to fight the case and then before she comes back, Richard’s mine, but I met you and I had a change of plan. I made you kill Maureen so I could get closer to Richard but then my stupid husband said we must relocate to London so I had to clear him off also with an ” Accident” you did an excellent job with those two but I don’t know why you made the mistake with Ella’s death, oh because she’s your Twin sister.” She laughed evily
“After my husband’s death, Richard came all the way to London to be with me and I thought I got a chance with him but no, he still consider us friends. The relationship I had wanted with you ever since high School gave me no choice than to ruin you and have all that belongs to you.”. She paused as Diana entered laughing
“Oh welcome darling, come help” she said handing over the gun to her to handle James, she brought out some papers from her Bag and then a pen
She continues
Richard you know have always loved you since high school but you ignored me and went ahead to marry Dora, I felt pained but I accepted it. Then luckily Dora died and am proud to say I no nothing about her death, thank God I haven’t killed much people…..” She makes a sign of cross
I was happy after hearing the death of dora and thought you would be mine, and God knows I was ready to leave my husband for you and be a good mother to Danny here but after a year I heard you are married to a Nigerian lady. Then I felt have had enough. I was happy the day you called to say Diana should come stay with you. That has been the beginning of the drama. I purposely asked you to sent Ella here to make her death Easier but her foolish Twin brother made an Error. So just look at it, you all just made everything easier for me, I was happy when Diana told me you will be coming here…..” She paused and look at us all.
“You are to sign this, here that all of your property should be in mine and Dia’s name”
” How do you get the papers” Dad asked
“Well am sorry Dad I did, immediately you two left this morning I went to your room and took the papers that’s why am late for this sweet reunion Tss Tss….”
I treated you like a daughter Diana, i loved you like you are my child”
Yes you do but I was never part of your family and I will never get the riches I want except Danny Marries me, but he doesn’t love me. A he want is Ella.. Ella that’s why I want her dead” she pointed the gun at Ella and shoot
James fell down, he blocked the bullet and was hit by the shoulder, we heard another Gun shot and Mrs Jenny sprawled to the floor, as another bullet hit Diana. The police, stormed in as Julian walked up to us.
“Ella….” she called and run to hug her.
They untied us and took us to the nearest hospital. Mrs jenny died before we arrived the hospital but Diana survived as she was shot on the Arm. She was given a life sentence
