**( MARTIN ESTATE, MAIN MANSION)
" What a stressful day " Lynda growls placing her coat on the Bed.
Sits down tiredly and says inwardly ' can't wait for Amar to be old enough so I can get the rest I deserved'
Looks at the portrait on the wall right above the TV. She sighs.
" I wish, I honestly wish the both of you were here."
closes her eyes and Exhales.
" The love of my life" walks to the portrait. " and my pride,I lost the both of you. and all I have is........". A maids barges in.
Lynda frowns " I thought I said I wanted no disturbance...." Turns to see the expression on the maid's face and is shocked. " What happened?"
" Madam....hmmmm....t..th..e..."
Lynda rolled her eyes and gave a more nicer look. The maid calms down alittle and screams with all her might.
" The young Heiress is MISSING"
" The young Heiress is MISSING"
Those words kept echoing in Lynda's head and she snapped.
" What the hell are saying" her eyes twitches.
***
In an instant the entire police force was mobilized in search of the heiress.
Lynda runs out of the main mansion, rushing into the car. With many thoughts running through her head, the driver starts the engine and drives behind the Police cars, Luckily Amar's location had already been found but Lynda was still restless.
Her mind driffs off to the past.......
FLASHBACK
" Mom I need to talk to you" Estella said reaching for her mother's hand.
" Est am kind of busy" Lynda said without even sparing a glance at her.
Engrosed in the files before her.
" Mom it's important....."Estella was interrupted by her angry mother.
" Nothing is more important to me right now than sorting out these files" Lynda said dismissing Estella.
Estella walks away hurt and sad.
Lynda rushes through her work so as to go home as soon as possible to have that long talk with Estella.
She could sense something was wrong but didn't want to be distracted from her work.
Finally she was on her way home, slowly driving into the Estate she hears screams. Confused, she comes down her car to witness something she would never forget in her life
" ESTELLA!" Lynda screams running into the mansion which on fire but was stopped halfway by her bodyguards
" Where is my daughter? where is Estella? " Lynda said crying as she trys to run into the mansion again but was stopped.
" Estella? " Tears roll down like a stream.
The president of MGC has been reported dead...
She throws an iron that completely destroys the TV. Lynda burst into tears hating herself and everyone else
The sudden death of the world's boss queen ;Estella Martins.
Looks at the newspaper and burst into tears. Wailing and regretting every action she took. 'why didn't I hear her out.if only I knew what she wanted to tell me?'
The fire that left not just one family but the entire world's devestated#RipBossqueen.
" Estella was no ordinary person though she had no super power but was she truly a woman of GOLD. Pure in heart. Hard-working and intelligent. She and I never got along but surely she was my niece. I loved her in my own way. It pains me in my heart that I could never see her again..."
All those words felt like nonsense to Lynda. She was the only one going through real pain, the other relatives were only trying to make a face for the public. They were all greedy, all they wanted was money.....
FLASHBACK ENDS.
Lynda didn't realize she was in tears untill one of the policemen knocked on her car window , quickly she wipes away her tears and get down from her car.
Walking slowly with every fiber of her being. Amar was the only thing keeping her sane. She had lost her husband, her daughter definitely she was not going to lose her granddaughter."not now not ever" she says inwardly.
The police and herself had packed their cars a few Metres away from the small abandoned house in the heart of the forest.
The sound of gunshots jolts Lynda, making her to run as fast as she could.
So many horrible thought runs through her head.
***
Amar
The gunshot directly at me but in a blink of an eye, agent white runs to hug me shelding me with his body. He took the hits and Paul passed out.
He lets go of me but I held on to him,
Tears slowly gather in my eyes.
He was quite heavy and big and I couldn't hold on to him for long
He falls to the flour and I knelt right beside him, I didn't know what to do at the moment so I screamed.
" Somebody help " I screamed.
" Please is anybody there" I cry out.
Agent white chuckles making blood to come out of his mouth." Y...ou....are.... un.... believe.....a..ble..." He chuckles.
This guy must be insane. "How could you laugh when there a bullet in your body. You might probably die."
"Y..ou...need to see your face right now"Coughs out blood and burst into another round of laughter.
How can this be funny I don't get it . Here I am wasting my tears on this fool.
I held footsteps and out of fear I grabbed the iron rod I use before.
To come to think of it this rod is taller than me.'i mean like what the hell?'.
" Amar !" I heard a voice that sounded like my grandmother.
I stood up less afraid " grandmother"
I walked outside to see my grandmother running to me. I never knew old people could run this fast.
With tears in her eyes she embraces me, holding me close to herself she burst into tears. Now I feel so bad for keeping her in the dark , am going to tell her everything as soon as we get home
" Amar " she patts the back of my head.
" Grandma " I said.we pulled out from the warm embrace.
" Am sorry I didn't hear you out. Am sorry I didn't give you the chance to talk to me. I promise from now on I will hear you out on what ever you need to say no matter how busy I am" I was touched by what she said.
" Grandma it's okay. I understand and am fine " I said flashing a beautiful smile at her.
She pecks me on my forehead and says " I love you. I love you so much, you are all I have left in this world. If I could trade all the wealth I have to get back your grandfather and your mother " crys. " I will do it without a second thought" crys even more.
This time around I hugged her sincerely I spoke" I love you too Grandma. You are all I have as well."
***
The police took the thugs too away and Agent white to the hospital.
Lynda and I sat beside each other in the car holding hands as the driver drove to the Estate.
Immediately we arrive at the Estate, Maids came running towards the vehicle.
***
Some of the maid were worried, others were sacred out of their mind , while some were excited.
Amar and Lynda paid no attention to any of them ,they walked together into the Main mansion.
***Amar
I walked into my grandmother's room. It was beautiful, mesmerizing. Any beautiful word you can think of just name it.
The room had only two colours, gold and white, there was so many portraits. Some of my mother, others of a young man while a few of herself.
Right above the TV was a very big portrait. It seems to be a picture of Lynda when she was younger and that man whose picture was almost everywhere and a baby of a few months or more I guess.
The door opens and closes, I held footsteps but I didn't turn around to look because I knew who it was.
" That is me from about 30 years ago" walks to me and stood beside me. Pointing at the man" that is your grandfather Richard. The love of my life "
I smile. " You know every Resemblance, you and your mother took from him. I guess it was to remind me that he was still with me even if he was gone" .
We both walked to the bed and sat down beside each other.
" Go ahead I want to hear it " she says to me .
I inhale and exhale before vomiting everything that had happened to her.
I could see how the gentle and calm expression on her face turns into a sacred and frightened one.
" What" she says as she blinks.
" It's true " I said.
" If it is true I wouldn't allow you to be right in the open like this. If they tried to kill before they would definitely want to kill you again. So "
"So?" I narrowed my gaze at her .
" Am sending you away. Away to somewhere safe ......."
