Benny ;I don’t want you to have a bad image of your daughter but i am doing this because sophie has been a good friend of mine

Henry; What do you mean *becoming impatient*

Benny; your daughter is a flirt*she paused to look at his facial expression*

Henry; you are funny dear, i understand Sophie has become a public icon since she won the competition last year, probably you are just one of those people that are jelouse of her.

Benny; how much do you know your daughter? how many hours do you spend at home in a day?

Henry; I don’t have the patience anymore get the hell out of my office.

Benny; I will but not until i do this*she brought her phone from her handbag and handed it to him.*see for yourself*

Henry collected the phone and was shocked with what he saw.How is this possible he said

Benny; you have seen for yourself, I was never here. She stood up and opened the door, to meet Bola running back to her desk.
so you have been eavesdropping
Is it your business?
you are shameless
Bola decided to keep her calm, she wouldn’t want to lose her job because of one w** h.
**********

Phillip had opened the door for Sophie to come out, hs driver had parked the çar in front of Sophie house.

Sophie; thanks Phil

Phillip; you are welcome damsel,I have something for you

Sophie; really, what is it
He brought out a diamond necklace and wore it on her.

Sophie; wow this must have cost you, thank you so much

Phillip; it from my mum , please take care of it

Sophie; I will dear, its always going to be where you ke
pt it.

Phillip; promise

Sophie; promise

They reached for each other’s arms and hugged. Henry saw them clearly , he had left the office immediately Benny left. He had wanted to Sophie at home but he parked his car when he saw a car parked in front of his house. He punched Phillip on his nose, it took the intervention of the driver to stop Henry from doing worst.He forcefully dragged Sophie inside.
Henry was breathing heavily like one been pursued by someone, he had gotten to the hospital finally, his nurses were all suprised they assisted him and took sophie to were she could be treated. hd went to his office and paced restlessly
I hate that girl, whoever sent her have gotten his/her mission accomplished. He opened the door and went to the ward she was, doctor mike a dark tall guy was attending to her.Henry was feeling sorry already, he hadn’t not looked at her face in process of saving her life, or probably he was too occupied with thoughts of loosing his only daughter that he didn’t notice the bruises on her face

Henry:how is she doing?

Mike; (still focused on what he was doing) she is still unconscious sir.

Henry; it okay, let me take it from here

Mike; are you sure sir?

Henry; yes, take a leave.i call you when i need you.

Immediately doctor mike closed the door behind him, he examined sophie one more time
my dear, please wakeup.Am sorry for hurting you this way, i would never lay a finger on you again.

He sat down on the chair beside her, everything that happened was still a suprise to him, for sometime he wished priscillia was with them so she could take care of Sophie emotional feelings.

I will take her abroad, yes abroad so she can forget about him and move on with her life.
He said to himself.
******************
Phillip had locked himself in his room he was really in a broken state, he had called her number for the umpteenth time but it wad still unreachable. He cursed himself for bringing this pain upon her.His mother and sister had been knocking

Phillip please open the door but he had turned deaf ears, he had wanted to put off his television, it kept making unnecessary noise.He was still in search of a remote when something caught his attention.the news headlines.

DOCTOR DOUGLAS OF HSP HOSPITALS CARRIES DAUGTERS LIFELESS BODy THROUGH LAGOS HEAVY TRAFFIC.

Phillip was stunned
what had happened? oh no going there right away he said in admist tears. He opened the door to see his mum just by the door
Mrs dim:we are going together son, am going to give that man a piece of my mind.

Phillip; no mum, am doing this alone i don’t want trouble i just need to see Sophie, and how she still fairing because am feeling guilty

Mrs dim; I won’t let you move an inch without me.

Phillip; fine you can come along.
