C10 Chapter 10.

Just after the call was over, the location popped on her phone and she rushed downstairs, almost stumbling on Susan who about to reach miss Lucy's room.

"Can't you watch where you're going?" She scolded as Susan bow her head. Miss Lucy shoved her aside and left.

"Who's meant to watch where they are going?" She mimicked and climb down from the stairs.

"Oh God, please save us" pa Junior prayed. He was the chef of the house and always considers other's problem as its own.

"I see this as a hatched plan" Alexandra added.

"How?" They chorused as Susan sat on the cushion to grab her breath. She hated climbing the stairs, but she feels hopping on it everyday might reduce her and sincerely, nothing was changing, rather she was increasing. Pa junior also took his seat to listen to Alexandra suggestions which help them sought a way out.

"Well it seems like this celebrity was dead after two days of searching and only God knows the true story, and it still happens that Julie got missing today that her death was announced"

"Yes that letter that we neglected…what if it was the same person?" Susan interjected.

"Were you can have a word with Jason?" Pa junior questioned trying to chip in.

"No…when we were about to discuss, miss Lucy called him to come along with her". Susan narrowed her eyebrows as though getting some idea.

"Wait a second… I thought Julie was allergic to Ice-cream?" She exclaimed jumping on her feet and the two affirmed to her thoughts.

"True Yes…why would Jason say that?" Alexandra pointed out, rubbing her jaw in the tip of her index finger.

"Something isn't right somewhere" pa Junior beckoned. These three were set to carry out an investigation on their own.

Keva smiled mischievously as her lips were swollen with kisses. She stared at the man who held her waist passionately.

"So, what do you have for me?" He asked while he cocked his head towards her.

"Well… we're working as a team honey!" she exclaimed, kissing him on the neck. He let go of her waist and scoffed.

"Really… I told you I wasn't interested in that profession and I just carried out the investigation because of you" he snapped, getting annoyed as he walked towards the study room.

"Come on…this is your chance again…why do you keep hiding from what you dream of?" She stated marching towards him.

"It's dangerous, and I don't want anyone to get hurt…"

"Every job is risky,, but it's passion that drives you through"

"Not that again…do have to argue over such?". Keva pulled a sad face and returned to the sitting room. The man heaved a sigh and glanced at her.

"I'm in…"

"Yes!" She yelled with gladness as she ran to hug him.

"But…not tonight"

"Why we are meant to begin immediately, time isn't on our side" she posed pointing to the wall clock.

"I have something special for you tonight…deal? Please just tonight…my warrior" he pleaded, and she smirked at him.

"Fine then, but I got to go somewhere now… I would be back before night fall" she assured with a smile.

"Promise you won't be late" he beckoned while she ran outside.

"Promise!" She yelled aloud and blew a kiss to him. When she had vanished out of his sight, he walked into the study room and brought a mini box, and he smiled at it.

The starlight company was now getting flooded with numerous people holding banners that had the picture of Clara and her fans screaming.

"Justice for Clara!". Anita ran into the building in a haste to meet her team, which were Alex and Alisha. They were upcoming artistes and worked for Clara, most times they were called "the three A's"

"Did you see the video?" Clara cried as she tried to gain balance to stand well.

"Well yes…it came out this noon" Alisha muttered with a Stern look at Clara.

"Don't you think everything is happening fast?"

"Yeah, I mean her daughter got missing" Anita added confused.

"It should be all her plans to avert people's suspicion on her" Alisha stated with a furious tone.

"How" the two chorused.

"Well look at it this way… accusing hands are laid on her and to prove that she wasn't the one, she must have his her child so that the story would be that the same person who killed Clara was after her and so all focus would be on the missing child rather than justice for Clara" she blasted as the two stared at Alisha with probing eyes.

"Why do you keep insisting that it's miss Lucy?" Alex questioned.

"Well…" She paused, looking to and fro to avoid eavesdropping around.

"I was there". Anita gasped in disbelief.

"Why would she risk her daughter's safety? It's so usurp" Alex gestured

"You never know the ways of celebrities right?" Alisha snapped while Alex shook his head and just then, a journalist came to meet with them for an interview.

Miss Lucy drove to the place that was written on her phone, but she found no one there. It was more like an abandoned theater. She turned around to see if anyone was out there, but no one showed up. She was facing the stage which had a wall like a big screen and before her eyes, an illumination appeared like the starting of a movie, and she saw Julie tied and screaming for help with all the energy she had in her.

"Oh no please stop this at once!" She yelled falling to her knees as she rubbed the screen to feel her daughter. The video suddenly went off and a message popped out on the screen which read;

"Let's make it a reality show".

"No please! Who are you...stop this at once!" She ordered with tears.

"I never knew the proud could be brought so low...I love it when you beg" a voice echoed in the space, she turned around to see who it was but there was no one.
