(ENGAGEMENT PARTY)
★
Dorathy’s eyes widened and the ice cream fell from her hand.
“Babe!!” She shouted and ran to him.
Luckily the bullet hit his shoulder, it was planned to get Henry’s head but the moment he covered Henry, they shifted a bit from the former position making the shooter to lose his main target.
Henry saw a masked guy slipping out of a corner.
“Stay here with him, I will be back” He said and left Hilliary with Dorathy.
He started running after the guy, following the direction he took.
The masked guy detected that he was being followed, he started running as fast as he can but Henry was getting up with him.
The guy was a fast runner so it was hard to catch up with him.
He entered a building still undergoing construction and started climbing the stairs but unfortunately Henry caught up with him.
He grabbed hold of him from behind and threw him down, he rolled on the stairs and fell flat on his back with pains gripping his chest.
Henry didn’t gave him a breathing space, he started battering his face punches.. hard thunderous one, causing him to start bleeding badly.
The masked guy tried getting his hand but Henry hit it away.
Henry quickly removed the mask from his face and saw it was a strange guy.
“Mother f*cker, who sent you?” He asked.
“No one send me” The masked guy replied but Henry knew he was obviously lying.
“I won’t ask again, who send you to kill me?” He asked.
” And you think I will tell you” The masked guy replied with his bloody lips.
The guy smartly raised his hand to punch Henry but he grabbed his hand and twisted it, dislocating his shoulder bone.
“Arrrg..” The masked guy should in pains.
“Are you ready to talk now?” He asked but the guy still had that same blank expression.
Henry smirked as he saw a knife in the guy’s pocket, he removed it and stabbed him on the thigh.
“Ahhhh..” He groaned.
“Talk now” Henry ordered.
When the guy was still trying not to say a word.. he started twisting and turning the knife in his thigh.
The guy started feeling unbearable pains, that he pee on himself.
“God!!! I will talk please…. I will..”.
“Start talking now”.
“His name is…” Before the guy will complete his statement two guys entered the building and released fire on Henry.
Henry quickly rolled away and hide behind a metal which shielded him from the bullets.
He stylishly sneaked out.
“F*ck he escape” One of them said.
“Were you planning to tell him who sent you?” The second guy asked pointing his gun on his head.
“No.. I wasn’t, I was only going…”.
The gun shot his head before he will complete it.
“He would have blown the cover if we didn’t get here on time”.
They looked at him before leaving.
Henry ran to where he left Hilliary and Dorathy.
” Where did you suddenly ran to?” Hilliary asked.
“I saw the guy who shot you escaping so I followed, I almost got the answer from him but two guys entered and released fire on me” Henry replied.
“Are you okay, hope you didn’t get hurt?” Hilliary asked worriedly, trying to check him out.
“You’re hurt, you took a bullet for me and you’re still worried about me, let’s get you to the hospital”.
“Stop crying, I’m not dead” Hilliary said, wiping Dorathy’s tears.
They entered the car and Henry drove to a nearest hospital.
***
“Why did you took the bullet for me, what if you died?” Henry asked.
His shoulder has being treated but the doctor insisted he rested for some few minutes.
” Dying for you will be the most precious thing to me” Hilliary replied.
“Babe!!” Dorathy pouted.
” Stop saying rubbish, don’t try that again” Henry said.
“I can’t bear it if you’re hurt” Henry added.
“Does it hurt much?” Dorathy asked.
“Actually, I always fantasy how taking a bullet will be like and it’s not that bad” Hilliary said.
Henry and Dorathy looked at him unbelievably.
***
They returned home from the hospital and Hilliary slumped on the couch.
Dorathy sat with him, taking his head and placing it on her shoulder.
Henry sat on the other couch.
“You said something about trying to finding out about who sent the guy so did you find out anything.. but what if it was Audrey?” Hilliary asked.
“Summer’s mum?” Dorathy asked.
“It’s not her, he was about mentioning a guy’s name, it’s a guy… it will be Collins”.
“What if it’s another person laying low to do all those things, you know some people can take advantage of some situations” Hilliary said.
“You’re right twin bro, I will be extra careful now but I can’t stay away from Summer.. no one can separate us” Henry said with a look of pure and solid determination.
Hilliary smiled, resting his head on Dorathy’s head.
“That idiot runined my plan for the night” He said and Henry laughed.
JAMES’S ROOM**
Audrey looked at James and making sure he is deeply asleep, she silently creep out of the bed and took her phone, she noiselessly opened the bathroom and entered.
She dialled a number number and the person answered immediately.
“How did it go? did he accepted the money?” The voice of a man asked.
“He is too stubborn, I haven’t seen such a mysterious stubborn guy like him, we need to do something or else he will ruin our plan” Audrey said.
“Let’s get them engage on Monday, I will set everything up, don’t be worried about the governor, we will handle him” The man said.
” Okay bye” Audrey said and quickly hung up.
She opened the door and her eyes widened, she froze and the phone almost fell from her.
James looked at her with an undecipherable look on his face.
“H… honey” She stuttered.
“Who were you talking on the phone with?” James asked coldly.
“I…was talking to myself” She lied.
James looked at her and shook his head, he entered the bathroom and closed the door.
“Did he heard what we talked about?” Audrey asked before going to the bed.
“Time is running out”.
James felt the pains in his stomach and when he cough, blood came out again.
He washed his mouth and faced the mirror.
“I need to see a doctor” He said.
Audrey who is secretly watching, smirked before running to the bed.
NEXT DAY**
“Daddy!!” Summer called, rushing downstairs.
She fell on James laps and he smiled, kissing her hair.
“How’s my baby doing?” He asked.
“I’m fine dad.. dad are you sick?” She asked.
“No, I’m not sick” He replied.
“Okay but your face is becoming pale”.
“It will be stress being the governor is not easy yunno” He said and she smiled.
Audrey came downstairs and immediately Summer saw her, she rolled eyes.
“Honey” Audrey said and pecked James.
Both of them ignored her, Audrey hissed and walked away.
“I don’t know why I’m hating mum this much since she started her agenda of forcing me to get engaged to Collins” She said.
“I told you, she can’t force you not when I’m alive” James said and Summer hugged him tightly.
BLAKE’S PLACE**
The ringing of the door bell made Blake to come downstairs.
He went to the door and opened, he gasped on who he saw.
“Hailey” He called shockingly.
“Why are you shock, did you saw a ghost?” She asked and pushed him away, entering the house.
“Nice mansion” She complimented.
“I thought you were joking when you say you will come to my house” He said, following her from behind.
Hailey smiled and turned.
“I wasn’t joking dummy” She said, flaunting her hair.
She faced her front again.
Blake went closer and suddenly hugged her from behind.
Hailey froze on that spot, tingling sensation started running through her body.
She stood still without pushing him away, her started beating again.
“You smell nice” He said and moved away.
“Why did you do that?” She asked.
“I just wanted to do it , nothing.. since you are in my house, let me make you comfortable” He said and took her right hand.
“How did I end up falling in love with a playboy?” She muttered to herself as he took her away.
