Flipping through files and documents Lynda could not help but worry about her granddaughter, who was supposed to arrive at the Martin estate about three hours ago.
" I hope all is well" Lynda said to calm her nerves.
Lucy barged into Lynda's room with a terrified look on her face. Only by looking at her Lynda knew something went wrong.
" Mrs Martins I have bad news. The convoy escorting the heiress was attacked by a group of assinators. Multiple dead bodies was found but there was no trace of the heiress" Lucy said with fear.
Lynda eyes widened as the fear of losing her granddaughter is writing all over her face.
She takes out her phone , dialing a number, she placed it on her ear.
" I want every unit of the police department searching for my granddaughter, she must be found at any cost. You have two days" hangs up and falls back on her chair.
Lucy excuses herself and Lynda narrowed her gaze with an undefined look.

A ray of sunlight spread on my face . I open my eyes adjusting to the brightest.
" What happened ?" I asked myself as memories of last night cloud my mind.
" Slivia , Jeff I hope you both fine " I said trying convincing myself
" Where am I ?" I panick while looking around the surrounding, I was in unfamiliar room.
" Was I kidnapped?" I sat up , placing my legs slowly on the ground, I stood up.
I walked to the door and to my greatest surprised it was not locked. Quickly I opened the door, stepping out.
I could hear voices as I tip toed down the stairs.
" I wonder when she is going to wake up" a voice sound that sounds of that of a man.
" I hope she wakes up soon so we could explain everything to her " a female voice replied.
Am a bit confused. Are this people not kidnappers, judging by the house, this doesn't look like a kidnappers lair. It looks much of a family house.
I tip toed into the living to find a man and a woman probably in their 40s.
The woman turns around to see me. She was a bit shocked.
" Oh honey "
"Hmm"
" She is awake"
The man turns around and smiles.

" So you are Matthew, the person aunt Slivia called " I said trying to understand.
" Yes " he said crossing his long legs.
" Where you the one who grabbed from behind" I said a bit annoyed.
" Oh no that wasn't me. It was one of my guards, my most trust one at that "
" Ohh" was all I could say , my wonders off to Slivia , I wonder how she is doing.
" Slivia where is she, how is she, is she okay"
Matthew sighs and faces his wife, who equally sighs.
" Answer me where is Slivia" I said standing up from the couch, with tears in my eyes I could already guessed what happened but I wanted to be proved wrong.
Still no response coming from Matthew and his wife( Noelle).
" I want an answer, tell where is my Aunt Slivia" tears roll down my cheeks.
" Amar calm..." Noelle said as Amar cuts in.
" Don't tell me to calm down, what happened? , I want to know"
" We arrived a bit too late, she was already dead when we got there. Am so sorry Amar " Matthew said with his head facing the ground.
" This must be dream. Someone please awake me from this nightmare" I said trying to convince myself.
" No it is not "Matthew said " she has already been buried" he added.
" Ahhhhhh Slivia !!!" I wailed, falling to the ground, Noelle rushes over to hold me.
Everything felt like a dream to me , I never expected to lose anyone , not someone as important as Slivia.
My whole life I had her by my side , she took care of me like her own , she loved me.
"Am I ever going to see you again"
" Of course silly"
" Be safe"
Those where our last conversation, if only I knew that was going to be the last time I will see her , I would have told her how much she meant to me.
I never missed having a mother because I had her. Jeff was there but he never understood like Slivia did.
I don't even need to speak for her to understand what I want to say.
I closed my eyes as the pain I felt in my was like no other.
" Its okay , am sorry" those where Noelle word but it was of no avail.
I was in state that I could only hear my thoughts.
I thought leaving the MANSION would open a new chapter in my life not destroy the old one.

FLASHBACK
" Slivia why can't I go out and play like ever other kid" I pouted
" Because you are not like every other kid " Slivia said carrying 5 years old me.
My eyes widen as I asked " am I an alien with supernatural powers"
Slivia burst into laughter, I pouted feeling a bit offended.
" Amar you are not an Allen"
" Am not? "
" No"
" Then why can't I play with other kids and why am I always locked up in this mansion and why can't go to normal school, Slivia I demand an Explanation" I said standing on my feet and crossing my hand around my chest.
Slivia burst into laughter all over again.
" Slivia what is funny" I said with an confused expression.
" You are" laugh again
" Slivia !!" I hit her playfully and she laughs even more.
Few minutes later.
" The reason is because you are an heiress"
" What is an heiress"
" Like a successor"
" What is a successor"
"Someone who would take over a business corporation when they grow up" Slivia said as simple as she could.
" Your ancestors bulit the MGC but your mother Established it. She made it the number one in the whole world. She was an hardworking and intelligent woman. One day you will take over the MGC and make your proud" smiles." But before then Your identity should be kept a secret" Slivia explained.
" But why?" I asked.
" because they are alot of dangerous people out there who would do any to became rich including hurting you.
don't tell any one who you truly are. Do you hear me."
" I promise to never ever ever tell anyone that my name is Amarianna Martins the Heiress of MGC" I placed my right hand on my chest and stand at attention. Even though I really did not understand everything she had just said, I felt at ease
Slivia chuckled and I smiled as well
***
I will give anything to see her smile at me again.
I looked out the window, I was already in the bedroom. It was night time and everywhere was dark and quiet
According to Matthew the Assinators flee as soon as they saw them coming.
Am going to see to it that those men are gravely punished for taking my Slivia away from me.......
They are going to regret ever Ending her life because am going make their life worst than death.....
It is a promise......
I wipe my tears away
